Another quick post from me.
Does anyone know why the fade in/out effect doesn't always work when the lock button is pressed on Stock Touchwiz ROMs? It works fine on the S2 but only sometimes takes effect on the S3. It's a strange issue but it's a niggle that irritates me and I'd like if I could fix it.
Also, is there a way that I can change the lock animation on Stock, like to the lock animation that Stock JB/ICS has with the TV like effect?
Thanks

Hi Guys
My sgs 3 has a strange pattern on the lockscreen wallpapers, if they are dark you can see like brighter areas, bits of say a full black wallpaper show as grey.
I did think the screen was faulty but when I use same wallpapers for home screen/view pics/movies this problem is not there, its only on the lockscreen wallpaper, If I use a very bright one its hard to see but any black/dark red/blue/dark green will show this odd blotch...mainly right side.
Thanks for any help
Settings>Security>Lock screen options
Untick "Ripple effect".
Is there some issue with the phone? Movies/games/pics all fine, I just get strange blotch on lockscreen, and what makes it even stranger if I use a live wallpaper on the lockscreen its fine,i only get the problem if i set a picture for the lockscreen 9worse with dark colours)

As B3311 just pointed out, turn off ripple effect and the weird pattern on lockacreen is gone. It needs to be there in order to be able to create the ripple effect.
Hi
I saw the post but I am just keen to find out what/why its there, you say it needs to be but that seems like a odd thing for Samsung to have, is there other posts covering this as I would like to find out if this is a samsung tech reply (its normal) or if its been seen by us and thats an answer we have came to.
thanks
I've had this problem on my GSII (SGH-i777) since playing around with ICS roms, in both AOKP and CMD.
What happens is, after locking it, or a program is supposed to wake it from a blank screen, nothing happens when pressing the power button. The phone is still on and the buttons on the bottom still light up and I can feel vibrations and sounds, but I cannot get the screen to come back on without rebooting.
I'm not sure what causes this and it seems to feel semi random, but I suspect it may be connected to the locking animation in some way introduced in ICS (the emulation of turning off a CRT monitor).
I'm wondering if anyone else has run into this problem and knows a good fix to avoid it (other than going back to stock firmware).
What app are you using that is supposed to wake your phone? Just my opinion but it sounds like an issue with the app.
PS. Crt off animation was introduced well before ics.

Try turning off CRT in system setting / ROM Control / General UI / uncheck CRT off animation. I have it off and never have a problem in AOKP
This guy probably didn't wipe everything before posting. Yes this includes your data.

It wasn't a bug, it is a feature called CRT off effect. For current CM10 the "feature" wasn't working so well, so sometimes it appear and sometimes it don't.
Hey
Since ics, multiple one touch lock screen widgets dont work properly. The led will flash and the it goes to the lock screen and times out with some, and with others it stays on a very low ambient type mode. Any one else? Any suggestions, i love one touch to lock the screen, damn first world problems

The widgets support ics?

I just turned off the lock screen, hardly needed since there are only soft buttons on the front of the device, and it's unlikely the power button would be accidentally pressed in one's pocket. Then i used a cool app called screen off and lock, it even has crt effect.
I had CynageonMod 10 recently and I liked it (notice how I didn't say love), I love how it turned off the screen like a tv tube. And how you slide a page normally ( not some card stack way) and across the wallpaper, also how you turned on the brightness was dark and lit up. I restored my i9300 to the stock Jelly Beam Rom, and I love the better speed and feature. I honestly miss these animations, but it doesn't beat Smart Stay or the Ripple Lockscreen.

I'm also interested about the CRT effect.
