2 lock screens - Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps

Hi all!
I just installed "lockbot" thats an lockscreen replacement. Looks great but the problem is, i keep getting my default lockscreen over my lockbot-lockscreen. I tried installing "no-lock" that would disable the default lockscreen, but that doesn't work.
So now everytime i press the powerbutton my screen goes black, i press any button then i see my default (android) lockscreen, i unlock that, and then i see the lockbot lockscreen.
Any way to disable the default (android) lockscreen?
Thanks in advance!

i fixed it, for somekind of reason the "nolock" app was interfering with the lockbot. its working now...

I dont think its exactly the same but

Same request here.. I already posted here and Q&A as well as the theme section... let's see whos gonna save us.
the link which is an eclair lockscreen theme (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=577651) is just the wallpaper of the lockscreen on the droid. I thought to unlock it you spin the dial but insted you press Menu. i guess we have to wait until 2.0 comes out and cyanogen ports it and hopefully it has the dial motion unlock screen
I use LockBot free, you can find it on the market. Just install it then open it and tap on mytheme, then delete Iphone and Hero lockscrenn... now you have Eclair lockscreen full working!!!
P.S. sorry for bad english
re
lockbot pro is not stable.
not at all!
fc's all the time and gives my eris a 5 sec delay. de-installed ASAP!
Been using LockBot Free for almost 2 months now. myTouch with Dwang's latest. So far so good, needs to force kill it sometime because it disabled my notification bar. Worked fine after reloading the app.
lockbot is very stable for my htc magic 32A. maybe the additional ram helps. no lag and doesnt do any weird stuff. recently they just udpated it with the "flan" lock screen. so now there's hero, iphone, eclair, and flan. very nice. it also has the correct animation for each lock screen. so for eclair, it can actually rotate one way for unlock, the other way for silent/vibrate. and unlike Lock2.0, you cannot bypass the lockscreen by pressing the menu key or long pressing the home button.
LockBot has a problem with notification bar, but I think it's only if you put it in full screen. Also it messes the time of my Home Widget that stays behind the real time.
LockBot Pro...working great!!
after some updates...LockBot Pro is working great for me. No FC at all, the dev is really good responding to issues. It has the Lock screen from Adroid 2.0.1. Waiting for it to be integrated in with the dialer so it will show incoming call with lock screen. don't know if that will ever happen. using dwang 1.17.1..fast and stable...its become "old faithful".
I also recommend lockbot free or pro. The ratings are too low because the c*nts don't know how to read and use an app before rating it.
lockbot always goes to the homescreen though
Thanks for the lockbot tip. Awesome little tool!

WidgetLocker + GoLancher = trouble?

When i shut my phone off and turn it back on it will get to the widget locker lock screen like it should but once i slide to unlock there will be no icons on my screen? I have root and am using widgetlockers home helper thing it also did this using lancher pro.
I usually have to turn the phone on and off a few times before the icons will show after unlock.
Any ideas?
Maybe you should set it to default when it asks which one you want to use..
Or I haven't understood your problem
COnfused.com
I would ask in the widget locker and go launcher help thread in the main android app section. I use both in conjunction and have had zero issues but I know the last go update was fixing some icon issues so make sure you update.
Also more info could be helpful. Such as what rom, kernel, etc
go lancher is set as the default. It's once you unlock from the lock screen there will be no icons.
I'm using the stock ROM rooted KE7 2.3.3

Are you using the integrated icon switching or are you using desktop Visualizer?

I'm not sure what you mean? I really haven't did anything but set go lancher as the default lancher and in widget locker i had to set it to use WL HomeHelper (optional) if i don't you can double press the home button and bypass the screen lock.
It's random when the icons don't come up after a unlock.

Are you using custom icons? If not, or even if so bring it up to the go dev team. Definitely looks to be something on their end. Have to tried to replicate it without widget locker?
Nothing to do with widget locker I think (I use it too in conjuction with Go Launcher) however there seems to be a bit of a bug in Go Launcher where icons randomly disappear - the last update was supposed to have fixed that but hasn't really, some still occasionally go missing from my home screens too. The easiest thing to do for now is to put all your apps and shortcuts how you want them, then backup the configuration from within Go Launcher preferences, next time they go walkies just hit restore configuration and job done. Just remember to back up the config every time you add or remove stuff.
I'm using go launcher and widgetlocker for 24 hours now and having no problems at all, initially the launcher was slow, but after 1-2 hours when I used it again, it was smooth, maybe cache related thing

I am using go lancher themes from the market. It did it again the whole screen is blank after a unlock no icons at all only the wallpaper shows. Lancher Pro did the same thing.
I can go into go lancher settings click on themes and nothing comes up.
I used widgetlocker and go launcher ex. I have not had any problems.
Preferences -> Operation settings -> Screen rotation (switch off)
I had the same problem, got rid of it by applying this setting. Wish you luck
Already had the rotation off.
If i hold down the home button after i unlock and bring up the task manger and find widget locker and do a force close all my icons come back.
As a note, I get this exact same issue with ADW Launcher EX.
Happens only right after a reboot, and not every time - WidgetLocker Lockscreen appears, I unlock and find a completely blank screen (Only the notification bar shows). Pressing the menu button brings up the ADW Launcher Ex menu though...
Restarting ADW Launcher doesn't seem to help, only rebooting a couple times until it does appear seemed to help me, but I'll try force closing widget locker itself next time.
I initially set ADW as default launcher, but then set the WL HomeHelper as default in widgetlocker settings, which I believe is the correct way to do it to block the home button from auto unlocking etc.
Edit: Restarted the phone just to test, and force closing widgetlocker does do the trick - minor annoyance only I guess

Yes it is for me it seems to only do it when i'm in a hurry lol
I use widgetlocker and GoLauncher too.
I've had the same problem this morning too, but a reboot of the device fixed the problem.
I've had similar issues without Widgetlocker installed, so I think the cause is to be found in GoLauncher. But the phone reboots very fast so I am not really bothered by it.
I used LP and switched to GO Launcher.
GoLauncher is set as default launcher at the first boot.
In WidgetLocker i disabled the homebutten with homehelper to stop the unlock by the homebutton.
No the problem:
When i reboot, there is a message that says "go launcher is not your default launcher." (Attach 1)
When i click ok, i'm in the assignments of WidgetLocker (Attach 2)
When i disable the homehelper in WL there is no problem when i reboot.
But i want to disable the homebutton...
Any ideas?
BTW: LP is disabled!
I'm using Litening Rom 6.1
I had exactly the same issue and stopped using Go Launcher as a result. It would only happen sometimes but it would require me to restart my phone. I now use ADW instead and it works fine.

[Q] Can I remove stock lockscreen

Hi all..this is my first post
Can i remove stock lockscreen
I'm currently running Blacknotes The Last Page, and i wanna change my locscreen using Holo Locker
But when i install i get double lockscreen
I try to remove using :
- Setting -> Security -> Set Screen Lock = None
- Using app : NoLock & No Lock screen
- Turn off in 14toggles
it all doesnt work for me
well i try to disable and enable my Holo Lockscreen and it works but everytime i turn off and on the phone
it back to double screen lock again
I heard it can be done in CM but for now i'm not plan to switch to CM 7 or 9
Try to read 5 related post on xda still no luck
Sorry for repost & my bad english
Thanks :good:
There is a 'no lock' app (actually more than one) which disables the lock screen. For me it only disables stock lockscreen, hope this works for you
Sent from my bananaphone.
Thanks for the respon :good:, but in my case No Lock and the others only disable stock lock screen temporary, once it restarted it back to both stock and holo lock screen

I wouldnt know anything else you could try, have you asked at the black notes Rom thread? Maybe someone there has an answer. Good luck

Yes i think i should ask Rio for that
but my post less than 10
maybe after 11 post i will ask in BN thread
Thanks :good:
Well, just now I found a solution. Since after you restart, it still goes back to double locker, I just Clear Data on the holo locker app, and then I do the Home Key Helper again on the holo locker app. As it looks, I need to do this, everytime I restart my phone.

LG G4 Lockscreen

Hey, I HATE the default G4 lockscreen. I have tried a couple of the 3rd party ones, (CM unlock etc) but non of them are doing it for me.
Anyone have any suggestions on lock screens for the G4?
I like C Locker from the Play Store on my G3. Requires root.
I too hate the stock LG lockscreen, the animations are SO tacky. Is there any lockscreen replacement that works with 1. Encryption and 2. Smart unlock (Bluetooth paired devices)?
Would love a proper AOSP replacement, or at least removing those horrible animations.
Ever since I debloated, I can only use the stock wallpapers on the lockscreen. Not sure how that happened, haven't bothered to fix it, but it's kinda annoying.
Try Hi Locker https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.appplus.hilocker&hl=en
Every I change my lockscreen wallpaper it reverts to the default one after a while. Anyone know a fix for that?
I tried some third party lock screens, but none really do the job. C Locker is closest but even as a system app, it doesn't totally lock down the device. When you open the camera/phone apps from the lock screen, they aren't opened in secure mode, so e.g. the camera app will let you browse the photo gallery, the phone app will let you call non-emergency numbers and open the contacts list, etc. It's also possible to open the recent app list, even though it's supposed to be blocked.
Also, all of the lock apps require first swiping to open the PIN entry keypad. I wish it was just automatically displayed like on the stock lock screen.
Really, my only gripe with the stock locker is that the buttons are so ugly and it keeps reverting to the default wallpaper. (But I love that with C Locker, I can add DashClock widgets... can't believe Google removed such a nice feature! But I don't want to use it with these security issues...)
Also C Locker does have a nice trick to block the home screen by installing itself as the home screen (and then launching either the lock screen or your actual home screen app as appropriate), but it has an issue with ADW Launcher, that causes it to run whatever action you set to the home button, every time it's opened. (I guess it launches the real home screen before you actually let go of the button.)

I have the same issue. When I reboot the lockscreen wallpaper reverts back to the default LG one. Have you discovered a fix?

I was not able to resolve that issue. Sorry.
I'm having another annoying issue ever since I installed XPosed. Sometimes the 1 key on the PIN entry just gets stuck and won't register. Only fix is to open the camera app and close it again, or reboot.
It might have to do with GravityBox lockscreen mods, since some of them broke it completely (just blank screen, no way to unlock); fortunately I could still reboot, and the problems wouldn't happen the first time after booting, so I was able to revert those tweaks. But even with all of the tweaks disabled, the stuck 1 key still happens at random.
So I figured out the stuck key issue. An app called Text Aide uses XPosed to force all text to be selectable by double tapping. That applied even to the lockscreen PIN entry buttons, so double tapping them (when typing repeated digits quickly) triggered the selection behavior, and then the button wouldn't respond. Removed that app, problem solved. Unfortunately I couldn't seem to prevent it applying to the lockscreen using the app's blacklist function.

Removing the stock gallery app means you can't change the lockscreen wallpaper.
(I know its been a year but just incase anyone is reading)

With the stock Gallery app I can change the lockscreen wallpaper, but after reboot it goes back to the default image.

Did you disable the default LG Gallery app? I heard that this causes the issue you described.

on screen instant lock shortcut

Hi
I use nova launcher prime and am used to a shortcut on my screen to quickly lock the screen instead of using the hardware button to lock the screen. However since I have moved over to p2.. After I press the lock screen shortcut from nova the screen for goes black but the screen isn't locked... It is not till 10 secs later when the screen actually locks
I hate this feature as it stops me from putting the phone into my pocket instantly after locking. How to fix this? I have set up power button to instantly lock the phone after sleep.
It's not P2s problem it's Android's security feature. You'll need root access to instantly lock screen
But from quicktiles there is an icon to do it

Thanks yes i came across that as well... However it is really a total failure on Android part to not have anything built in to allow people to instantly lock... Isn't there any way to put a shortcut to the system icon on my desktop? In stock launcher or otherwise?
Unfortunately looks like Android is going the way of Apple with these silly restrictions becoming more n more common
Well it's a security feature which means they've probably found something wrong with putting a quick lock from 3rd party apps.
Use "Wide touch" found under Setting->Feature. You can assign multiple gesture into it.
