[Q] Galaxy S2 lock screen removal ? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to permanently delete the stock Samsung Galaxy S2 lock screen, on my E4GT ? I can't stand it, and use Widget Locker that has a ICS style locker launcher. But once in awhile there is a conflict, where the stock locker shows up, then it switches to new Widget locker.

On Widgetlocker 2.2.3 follow the below steps that worked for me
1. select settings > Buttons & Inputs > tick Easy Wake mode
2. select settings > advanced > homehelper > tick homehelper component
3. select settings > advanced > homehelper > HomeHelper's launcher > select your launcher
4. select settings > advanced > homehelper > select system home > select WL Homehelper (tick set as default)
5. select settings > advanced > roothelper > tick all options
Good luck

Thank you very much

How To: Launch Debug Menu (MOTO-BLUR)

CQATEST.APK - Debug Menu - "Hidden Menu"​
Download the app "Nova Launcher" (Nova Launcher is an alternative to the "Moto-Blur" homescreen and features "Activity Shortcuts" - This launcher can be downloaded on the Google Play Store...) This will allow you to launch the debug application "CQATEST.APK." To shortcut this tool hold down on the homescreen till you see the customize menu. Select "shortcuts" > "activities" > "CQATest" then your done.
This tool can be used to debug and test your roms features. I used this method because the other dialer method doesn't work universally. Its a pretty cool menu.
Screenshots of this Motorola menu is below.

[Guide] Remove Ads

Because i live in the EU ads only show up limited. But don't worry, here is a way to disable all ads on MiU no matter where you live.
Ads never should be integrated in a system software, that's up to the consumer and not a decision from the company/brand.
So here is a small tutorial to make the choice for yourself, no root needed.
First we're going to disable MSA (MSA stands for “MIUI System Ads")
Go to: Settings > Passwords & Security > Authorization & Revocation
Disable "msa", sometimes you have to wait a few seconds before disable it, or even re-try again. This can take a minute.
Next > Go back (In Authorization & Revocation) > And go to Privacy > Ad Services And disable "Personalized as recommendations"
MiU:
Folders: Hold the name of the folder, the same if you want to change the name of the folder. Disable the "Promoted apps" below to remove ads. Unfortunately this process has to repeated on every folder you use.
(Note: EU versions doesn't have ads in system software)
Themes: Personalized (Bottom right) > Settings > Disable "Show ads" & "Personalized recommendations"
Google Store: Install a app (doesn't matter what) after installing it switch to another screen (scanning) > Settings (Right above corner) > Disable "Receive recommendations"
Next up are the MiU Apps:
Security App: Settings (Right above startup screen) > Disable "Recieve recommendations"
Mi Music: Settings (Left above startup screen) > Advanced Settings > Scroll down > Disable "Show ads" You can also Disable "Online Content services" as well.
MiBrowser: Personalized (Bottom right) > Settings (Right above corner) > Scroll down > Other > Advanced > Disable "show ads"
Mi Video: Settings (Right above startup screen) > Disable "Personalized recommendations"
Downloads: Settings (Right above startup screen) > Disable "Show recommended content"
Cleaner: Settings (Right above startup screen) > Disable "Show recommended content"
Hope this helps, enjoy a adsfree Poco X3 experience
:good:
Note for Moderator: forgot to add [Guide] in the title.
You can also remove MSA package entirely https://forum.xda-developers.com/xi...uide-uninstall-poco-x3-nfc-bloatware-t4169497
pm uninstall --user 0 com.miui.msa.global
Thanks for this information sir.
ty it even helps to decrase activity of some shaddy xiaomi proces like sdkconfig.ad.intl.xiaomi.com or tracking.intl.miui.com

Sure there are a lot of apps/dns options or vpn's out there that can solve against ads. Don't het me wrong i use surfshark on top of everything for my own.
Even removing them like the option bacitoto gave. But in my guide is a way without using any tools and removing them in the core, non root without using the need or to be depended for other apps for resolving this issue.
Poco x3 is just a few weeks old, i'm trying to still have my warranty valid.
Try the very usefull application manager - ADB AppControl.
This tool will allow you to disable unnecessary apps (and bloatware ads). Just use it wisely.
Settings to type DNS - private DNS to fill in dns.adguard.com or Blokada or Adguard applications. Beautiful lock

Yes even on all MUI 12.0 devices, although POCO is currently the only one so far with ads showing.

I'm not able to find an app "Folders". There is a "File Manager" app, but it doesn't not have the "Promoted apps" setting. Am I looking in the right place?

Folders meaning group of apps on home screens, you have to open that group and press hold group aka folder name, maybe it is not available on every rom.
If you let xiaomi run updates when setting up phone, new version mi video does not have indeed but it does not mean it is turned off.
Also when setting up xiaomi phone it is better without connecting to net
very useful thread , I am glad I bumped into it
