Widget Locker from market.

Hm, I like TW4 itself.
But this lockscreen is just epic and I'd really like to have this O.O

Why is this in development? It should be in General/Questions.
Also like TekJoe already mentioned, get WidgetLocker from the market and install any of the thousand themes available for it. Also I believe the sense lockscreen comes preloaded with the app.

Sorry, did not know where to put it.
Is there the original lockscreen of the Sensation included?
But actually i don't want to buy anything...

I found a app on the market called Agile Lock.
It looks just like Sense 3

Put this topic wherever you want to, but i used the search function in the S2 forum and there was no specific thread with this name, so i created this.
Agile Lock is nice. But it's not possible to use settings without buying it and it's kinda laggy...

A little laggy, but you can download some Apps to gain 300 points and get the full version free.
Don't download the app that gives you 100 points, it's infected.

Could you tell me which apps you downloaded?
I did not dare to download any app cause there was everything on japanese or chinese or whatever.
And you downloaded these apps and deinstalled it after that?
Edit:
Ok, i did it
Now it works fine! Still a bit laggy, of course, but i hope it gets better with few updates!
Thanks for Agile Lock!
But the music control is a bit stupid, i can't select where to show it on the lockscreen, right?
Always on bottom left corner... That sucks a bit...

Not possible currently. Miui has a lockscreen close to sense 3.0 but its not animated and feels blah compared to the real thing.

[Q] Alternative Lock Screen

So what can I do to replace my lockscreen? I'd like something like WhisperCore which forces me to wipe away my fingerprints in order to unlock so that others can't unlock my phone by looking at the smudges. Is there anything like that out there?
I'll just leave this humongous thread here:

Wow that is a hell of a lot of lockscreens but I'm looking for a specific feature which they all seem to lack. With whispercore (for the nexus) you have a feature called sumdge-resistant screen unlock patterns. So you draw out your pattern as normal but instead of simply unlocking you are brought to another screen with stars all over the screen. You wipe your finger up and down the screen to highlight the stars. Once they are all highlighted your phone unlocks and you've successfully wiped away your the smudges from your pattern. Honestly if I'm not forced to do this then I'll probably forget.

Anyone know of a lockscreen or widget that will allow me to control my Google Music app without having to slide unlock the phone. I see that the photon allows you to do this with the stock music app but not with the Google music app. Much thanks.

Agile lockscreen lets you select the music app to use as lockscreen control
I'm a fan of no lock.

Widget locker does that, and more its what I choice to use
has anyone explained yet how to replace the lock screen via root to the aosp rotary one? I am interested in completely replacing the blur lockscreen
Using Widgetlocker and the darn stock Motorola lockscreen keeps popping up from time to time. Anyone know how to disable it or freeze it in TB to keep it from coming up? Very annoying to have 2 lock screens to mess with.

good find.. ty
I am using this. Works great. Probably a 3 star app. What i did was i put all the apps in one folder so they didnt go across all my screens, then i put this app's short cut on my dock bar. Works great. Its just very none aesthetically pleasing. Could use some more customization, maybe some sorting or something like that.

You can customize it if you use the left click button at least somewhat.
This app works great. Perfect for MIUI

I tried MIUI last night, I also installed this, but what I just ended up doing was removing this and put everything i didnt want on my homescreens in one folder and put that folder as the middle dock icon, and it basically works just like an app drawer, u can change the sorting to numerous options including by usage, which i thought was really cool.. the folder also has a neat open and close animation when u click it (when it is in the dock anyway). I always end up going back to some stock derived rom though, I just feel like I am losing features going to cyanogen or MIUI

If you hide apps in the MIUI settings and then use the altdrawer as an app drawer were you able to put shortcuts to the home screens? I'm not able to....

[Q] Change lockscreen on stock/deblur ROM?

I rooted and deblurred my Photon, and now I'm happily running ADW Launcher with an ICS theme. Now, is there a way to change the lockscreen as well? I'd love to be able to access the camera directly from the lockscreen.
Use go locker.

I downloaded Go Locker and it made me download Go Launcher EX as well. Oh well, I was gonna try it anyway. It looks good so far.
You could always test each and see which is the most functional for you...you can also try locked roms such as rocko and imperial found in the development section
The most reliable one I've found is MiLocker, it has alot of options too.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I've come to the determination that WidgetLocker is the cheapest, most configurable lock screen.
GO Locker and Magic Locker are both free to install, but each theme can only be configured a little bit. Free ones are rare and limited, and you're asked to pay at every turn. It's really annoying. I scored WL for 99ยข on sale, but even for the full price of $2.99, it's worth it to pay once and never be bothered again.
Also, you can configure your launch screen pretty much any way you like. There are some cool unlock gimmicks I've seen other launchers use, and I wish WL would add some of them, but the fact that you can make your own lock screen is pretty cool. I wish I could configure one up and save it, and repeat, and have a gallery of lock screens I've made, like the others have, but I'm fine just evolving the one as I see fit.
WL doesn't work on its own, and I don't suppose any of them do. You have to download an app called "No Lock" to get rid of the stock lock screen.
And none of these are valid options if you want security. For that, you have to disable your custom lock screen and use the system one.
Actually MiLocker is totally free, doesn't ask for donations and after reboot the stock lock screen shows up once then it's just MiLocker. The only down side is many of the themes use Asia characters in them.

Is it compatible with the stock ROM, or MIUI only? I had a good time customizing the lockscreen and such when I ran MIUI on my EVO.
Yup, most current stock Blur Rom.

OnlyOne Beta Discussion Thread

I figured I'd make this for people to talk about issues and cool things they find with the OnlyOne Beta 2 Rom
Good morning everyone!
Just installed this ROM last night and running it through the paces.
When long clicking on a home screen, I do not see the option to add direct dial, direct text etc to the homescreens, just apps and folders.
Any suggestions?
Those options are in the app drawer. Click on the app drawer then widgets. Long click the widget to add it.

This is the type of ROM/MOD I really like....plus the SIII TouchWiz operates great...I can get rid of all my other alternative lauchers.
I did try to do some of these mod's myself on the leaked version...svoice, touchwiz, etc. but there was always something not running right...so it's great that some take the time to do this for us!!!
Nice...running almost perfect thusfar...highly recommended.
Can anyone confirm if the tether feature on this rom is working?

Thank you for putting this rom together it's amazing.
The only issue I'm having is with the wallpaper. It says it's vertical when you choose it then changes to scrolling on it's own therefore it zooms in and doesn't look very good. Am I missing something?

[Q] After ICS update - no more swipe top of screen for brightness :(

Idk if this has been mentioned yet, but i use this feature everyday...no more swiping the top of the screen to adjust brightness level.
Is there a new shortcut for this? It's very handy.
oh man are you serious?? I too use this feature ALL the time no joke... hmm maybe I should put off this update? lol. Can someones else with ICS please confirm this?
Unfortunately it is indeed gone (I used it very often before, too).

I just went back stock and updated today and can confirm it's no longer there. I noticed the same with the ICS leaks that have been out recently but just thought it was something to do with being a leak.
Unfortunate, I really liked that feature.
A lot of the CM9 based ROMS have this feature available.

That is unfortunate. When I was on the stock battery and stock I'd use that. However, now with the extended back I just leave it on auto

Do you all really not look in the market or on google for apps or do you just come here for answers cause you don't wanna take the time to look? Here is an app that does exactly what you want. You can control brightness by swipeing the top, bottom or side, your choice. It can also bee seen or you can make the bar transparent https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.DisplayBrightness&hl=en
There is another app, Notification Toggle which mimics that of the 15 toggle mod that we were seeing around a bit before. You can put it in your status bar so all you do is pull down and set brightness from there plus a whole mess of other stuff.
Hope you enjoy.
