Seemed to make my touchscreen better.

Im sorry I should have been more clear after awaking the device the 1st and usually the second swipe or touch doesn't register ...it kind of gets annoying

You might try using widgetlocker, though that is a paid app. It allows you to customize your lock sceen with different unlock themes and widgets. I've never had an issue with it registering my unlock after wake.

I found the problem ...fancy widget when enabling weather animation the touch screen lags for a second or two works good now

can the screen lock be replaced

since the fingerprint scanner stopped working, I am wondering...can the screen lock be replaced? I want to have one just like the HTC one (i.e. slide down to unlock)
Many thanks

Well I've seen some app. For a custom lock screen but I has a lot of bugs.
It was called LockBot Free.... Thats the best one that I've tried.
Yes..
WidgetLocker Lockscreen is about $1.00 USD, and it's pretty awesome.
It lets you skin the lock slider, add widgets (ie power control, calendar), change the background, add various sliders for opening email, etc.
I recommend it.

Lock screen...

Want a different lock screen. What is everyone using?

Most people use widgetlocker with a theme applied
I've tried a few different ones on the market. But none work properly with the finger print scanner

widget locker is supposed to support the FP scanner but I have yet to get it to successfully work at all, while others have claimed 100% working.
Widget locker, FB working 100%
Widgetlocker works great with my fingerprint scanner since their last update to address the issues with it.
If I have turned off the FS will I still have issues. I use a pin code instead of the FS.

Nope. Widgetlocker works with FS on or off.

Turn on FS for your phone, not Widgetlocker:

Facial Recognition locking app

I found this app in the Samsung GS2 forum.
From what I understand this app is also available through the android market. I am not taking credit in anyway for the development of this app just liked it and decided to post it here for us too use.

Thanks for sharing, this is great. But one gripe, it puts an icon in the notification bar and of you drop it down and select it, it takes you to the setting so anyone can change the settings.

If you turn off the lock notification, you cant launch the app from the pulldown.

Thank you, that works! Also in the setting you can check off the app also so if you try opening the app itself, it is also protected..I should have thought of that lol.

It works its just that my brother and mom can get in with no problem. Haha I'll test it out on some friends to see if its worth keeping.
thanks alot cool app works great on my 3vo
I have tried it with a few friends it kept them out. Not saying its perfect but you can also try raising the security level to high. Just makes sure you take a variety of test pics in different lighting for the best results

I found a flaw though. On sense 3.0 if the application you have locked is on your lock screen, it somehow opens the app anyways, therefore this app is useless.

Are you sure the app was running? I just tried my lockscreen and it locked it for me. Make sure you have the notification on and that the icon is in your notification bar, so can make sure the app is running. Something else you can try, there is a setting that allows you change whether or not you have to constantly unlock it or unlock one app and it stays unlocked

Facial Rec Lock Screen
Can this be used as a lock screen? Is there a setting I may have missed?
Great idea and app.
Thanks for any assistance.

you can turn the setting off where it stops prompting to Face Rec every time you turn off the screen and open the app.
I cant wait for it to be used in conjunction with the lockscreen/unlocking the phone...
It makes me feel like im somebody off of mission impossible or something...

I figured out a workaround...
Install "Agile Lock" (free on Market, and a Sense 3.0 lockscreen that's meant for AOSP ROMS normally) https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.SenseScreen
and set the app to activate when used...
Profit.

I set this to lock golauncher, which works well as phone wont launch after unlocking it until face verified. UNLESS, you slide an app to the lockring, then it bypasses it and I think crashes visidon, becuse i then have to open the app and back out to make it work again. Would be a sweet app if this was fixed.

What's this app name?

Hello I'm jonathan michael. And I was wondering if someone knows this app.
Description of the app:
This app needs of root access I think lolz. It has the options to turn to the next home screen by passing your hand true the phone without touching it and it don't use the front camera to be able to use this options. It also can turn the device off by passing your hand up or down left or right whatever the option you choosed, and you can do all this without touching the device or use the camera. It just like a hand motion thing. I'm hoping someone knows what's the name of this app!

Not sure about Changing the home screens.. But there is one app with which you can lock and unlock device by swiping fingers near display.. It's smart screen on/off

[Q] Gestures not registering consistently, particularly swipe down and swipe up

One of the first things I did when I got my Droid DNA was to install Apex Launcher, mainly because I wanted the gesture support for opening the notification drawer and the app drawer. I have swipe down set to open the notifications, so I don't have to reach all the way to the top. Problem is, sometimes I have to swipe several times or change the angle at which I am swiping in order for it to register. I have been in contact with HTC but we aren't getting anywhere.
I don't know if the issue is limited to Apex, or if other launchers have the same issue. I tried Nova, but apparently you need the premium version to unlock gestures.
My question is this: Does anybody else have issues with gestures using Apex or Nova (premium) Launchers?
Its something with apex. I just installed nova to test it our and it works flawlessly.

Well it could just be my phone, or it could be you haven't seen it YET. As I said, the issue was intermittent. Anyway, if you do keep one of those configurations, I would much appreciate it you would post back here again. Thanks for the help though meanwhile.
I did some more experimenting and I realized it may be limited to just after switching screens. If I swipe to the side to a different screen, then quickly swipe down or up before it has completely settled, then it won't go. If I keep swiping, it stays in "transition mode" and won't recognize the command of swiping down or up. The only way to stop it then, is to be a little slower to swipe, or to speed up the transition animation. Not sure why this never happened on my Thunderbolt though.
