Does anyone know how I can change the evo lock screen to the android lock screen like on the droid. It just looks so much better. That would be cool
Wrong forum.
Check under "Themes and Apps" for stuff like that.
Here's the thread your looking for:

No problem. - The original Sprint boot animation is so ugly I just can't believe they'd hire someone to make that stuff happen at Sprint.
Here's another link on how to apply a boot animation:

I think he was asking about the lock screen, not boot animations...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesnt the droid use the stock lock screen? If so, this is a theme in damagecontrol
I juss don't like the stock lock screen for the evo.i like the android lock screen better
Is there a way where I can still change my htc sense lockscreen to the droid lockscreen without rooting?

doubtful, you need to be able to remove the htc lock screen apk i believe.
Well do I have to root my phone in order to run the boot animation?
I don't want to root my phone yet that's why, but maybe if I just do what you said
I think so, because to modify the boot animation files you have to have access to rw system
there is an app in the market to change your lock screen.i think is lockbot or something like that.

Yeah, he asked for the DroidX lock screen, not lockbot or anything else.
{does anyone know how I can change the evo lock screen to the android lock screen like on the droid}
LOCKBOT IS AN APP TO CHANGE YOUR LOCK SCREEN, you can change it to look like the one on the droid, you can chage it so it looks like the , iPHONE,ECLAIR,Froyo,x10, and galaxy, i think this would do what you want!!
ps. to the one that posted above me, are you forealz, do you even know what lockbot is???
Ok cool, then I guess I'll lockbot thanx guys

I've been trying to find a legitimate way to add my information on the lock screen just in case I misplace my phone. I cant seem to find an app that will work with the htc lock screen and was wondering if anybody has stumbled upon a way to do this.
So far the closest thing I've been able to come up with is editing my banner from "Sprint" to my name.
Any ideas? Has anybody stumbled upon this when modding the lock screen?
btw i really really like the clear lockscreen and rosie mod by kon. great job!
You could make a custom wallpaper with your contact info for your lock screen and apply that. That would accomplish what you are trying to do I think.
You can find directions in this thread:

Seems like a good compromise for the vanilla lock.
I wonder if there's a way to do this with the htc lock screen. Only reason I like it is because of how it incorporates notifications.

That's a good question, I'll see what I can find out.

and nice invisible pattern unlock. =]
I'm on MikFroYo with Slayer69's CYAN Dragon Theme I have vanilla lock screen. I want menu unlock. Every thing I find is how to disable it. I tried
the app on the market but it dose not work. If anybody can help it would be greatly appreciated.
Me too. I'd also like a way to undim my screen with the power button. My top button has just about bit the dust.
Swyped from my Evo on steroids.
Nobody knows how to do this.
Lol I know it's on cm but I don't like cm. The aosp phone sucks, and I don't like adw or any other launcher other than stock.

Not sure I can help but don't understand the "I want menu unlock". Can you explain this better or in a different way so I get a grasp on what you want to do?
When i had Fresh rom I would remove HTC lock screen and would be able to swipe the screen to unlock or push the menu button. It seems like everybody is disabling this.
Sorry for the delay.
This is what I would try first after doing a nand backup of course!
Click on the paperclick by the Fresh Rom post and download "Rosie.apk". Install it and should overwrite the one Mik uses. This might give you what your looking for.
However, I could be wrong and it may just change the theming. But easy to return to what you have now with quick restore. I found a zip to add this feature but it was for Fresh on the Hero (which is where it originally came from). Not sure if it would work for the EVO.
Let me know if this didn't work and I will try to help further.
NM...here is what you want.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785271
Just download the "Remove HTC Lockscreen" and flash it. Will give you the Vanilla Lockscreen and allow unlock using menu button according to thread.
*BUMP* See my previous post for solution.
Did not work it was disabled in the rom or the theme. If you look at the rotary lock screen post he disables it. I do not have that mod just an example. Some roms have it some do not. It has to do with the vanilla lock screen. With the theme I have he says to rename the HTC lockscreen app. witch lets the vanilla lock screen work.
Is there anyway to change this, to a slide bar or something?
Just come from a HD2 running stock desire rom and the current SGS2 one seems a bit...naff in comparison.
Try widgetlocker. Slide to unlock plus slide to any app

WidgetLocket works perfectly and when activated stops the default locker from appearing.

Adding the stock lockscreen is very complicated, requires editing of the framework.jar and android-services.jar aswell as framework res.
I will begin work on it once we have fully functional deodexed rom

Do you think you will be able to do it? Really don't like using bolt on lock screens like widgetlocker.
Depends how similar to the origional sgs the java files are. That's the complicated bit. Waiting on cwm for backups and deodexed rom, then work will begin

If you haven't given widget locker a go yet I would try it.
It's even better if you've rooted and increased your lcd density somewhat (192 seems good to me). I love being able to unlock straight to SMS, Email & camera, while being able to use torch mode without unlocking too... etc.
The old lock screen is still on in the background. Sometimes it flashes up when I unlock. Is it a bad idea to disable through Widget Locker?
I love widget locker, but I'm finding it a pain - my home button first start bypassing it, then when I figured that fix out, hold it down still activates the task manager grr
WidgetLocker is great - I've been using it for about a year but only found out the other day that you can get custom themes for the sliders, and because they're mostly just zipped up image files it was relatively easy to customise.

This is the 5 second problem. It's discussed in the Widget Locker documentation (and in the settings menus too).
If you root your phone you can get rid of it once and for all. Otherwise Homehelper is supposed to maybe help, but I never managed to completely get rid of the system lock screen till I rooted as you can't override the 5 second thing.

Okay. Planning on rooting my advice so may try that. Cheers. What is home helper? Do you mean root helper?
Widgetlocker on my O2 branded unrooted SG2 worked perfectly. However, now I have rooted it and flashed the unbranded firmware the home button overrides it meaning just pressing the home button twice unlocks the phone.
Anyone else with this issue? I have checked to make sure the option to allow the home button to unlock is unticked.
Edit - Ignore me, forgot the Homehelper needed to be set as default.

DO you think it would be possible to add Cyanogen's unlock screen (with rotary unlock and stuff) or would that be even harder ?
I would love to see the AOSP lock screen pop up on the SGS2.
my vote is the puzzle unlock from some sgs models.

That one is built into Widget Locker if you don't mind using that. Given the power and battery life on the phone I'm quite happy to do that. Although my resource reporting apps show Widget Locker as quite a hog.
I hate the Widget locker icon in the notification area. It makes me sad.
Maybe there is a setting that I am overlooking to change it
I hope there is, cause I hate it!

you can change the lockscreen wallpaper by going into settings / display / screen display. There is a section for the lock screen. Just click on wallpaper and you can change it. Took me a while to figure that one out.

Looking to replace the lockscreen myself, but in the meantime you can at least change the image on the stock lockscreen by going into the gallery, selecting an image, hit menu->Set As->Lock screen wallpaper
better than nothing!
got it thanks
I used to use WidgetLocker on my Desire when it was still running Sense. It worked generally well. Sometimes it would clash with the Sense lock screen and I had to go through the Sense lock screen after the WidgetLocker lock screen. Though most of the time it worked fine. Maybe it wont have any problem with the Touchwiz lockscreen.

Try Ripple Lock, it's a Honeycomb lock with a single pulltab in the middle. It will replace your lockscreen without root, there is even an option to fix double lock (Galaxy S issue), you will need to enable mode 2.
here's what is looks like.....
I'm using widgetlocker. Put it on my phone about 5 seconds after turning it on. Has been working perfect with no issues.

I have a passcode enabled and my lockscreen is only the screen where you are suppose to enter the passcode. How would I make the lockscreen be a normal lockscreen where I have to slide to unlock and then enter my passcode?
Ditto...WidgetLocker for me as well. Simple quick and easy.
I use lockbot.

Does anyone know of any way to either change the default lock screen clock / weather items? Or remove it completely?
I tried Holo Locker but it does not seem to work.
I don't want to disable my lock screen completely, just have it as close to the stock Google as possible. I hate the Sense weather that comes with the One. I understand I can add something like DashClock but I am not able to set it as the default lock screen.
Any help is appreciated.
No possible to put any other lockscreen on than the ****ty default one. You can of course add the lockscreens you actually do want to the "right" of the default one but this is incredibly dumb to force us on their ****ty lock screen.
I want dashclock and can't get it to be the default.
I agree. Well, thanks for the response. I wish we could change it.

Sad that they restrict the basic functionality that almost any phone on the market right now can do just to force this on us. What a shame.
