[Q] Custom lock screen image for CM7? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to setup CM7 with a custom lock screen image without using apps like Widget Locker?
Surely someone can modify CM7 to be able to have this function like MIUI or something, no? I'm quite surprised that the CM team hasn't implemented it, honestly.

Multipicture Live Wallpaper has and option to use a separate image (or folder) for the lockscreen. This option doesn't work with the MIUI lockscreen (at least not for me), but it probably would work with CM.
It doesn't drain any more battery for me than a normal wallpaper, if that's something you worry about. It could be different for your phone, though.

Changing lockscreen wallpaper

hey, how can i change only the lock sreen wallpaper?
I don't think you can, but could be wrong as although I got my GN this morning I'm still in work and only turned it on once to get the OTA update
it cant be done by default, i use WidgetLocker, the latest update has the ICS lock which you can customize to open other apps or change settings as well as just unlock and camera like the stock one and you can of course have an secondary wallpaper just for the lock sceen
Hi,
WidgetLocker is the best way to change wallpaper and design of your Lockscreen.
You can add widget and custom sliders.
I use WidgetLocker since I had my first android phone
yeah, widgetlocker (and maybe some other custom lock screens) allow you to change you lock screen wallpaper.
your only other option is to Root and install a custom ROM which allows this feature by default...like AOKP
Euroskank kangs have this cherry picked. Should be in cm9 nightly soon.

[REQ] Stock rooted EL29

I know that we have a stock rooted EL29 rom out there, but hear me out. I am hoping for a stock rooted ROM with fixed Gallery bug, since I can't seem to figure out how to get it working. The bug I am referring to is when TW on stock is simply does not allow you to have scrollable wallpaper. It is an issue to me since I use TW4.5 launcher. Every custom rom based on EL29 has this issue resolved, so I know it is possible.
I appreciate all of the work the devs do for us, but most roms are not my cup of tea as they make visual changes or adjust auto brightness levels to improve battery life, which make screen really dark and dull to me.

We heard you out but now hear us out ... post in the right section, thank you.
sigh, I am sorry, I thought I was in General
What gallery bug?
One where you are unable to set a custom wallpaper without breaking the scrolling homescreen feature of it. So like every screen will have the same wallpaper, not the scrollable version .

I believe Calkulin has resolved this issue in his ROM. Pull the gallery3D.apk from his ROM and push it to system/apps. Or you can simply use a different launcher, I think this is TW specific. I haven't seen it on any of the third party launchers.

Yea, no el26 or 29 based custom rom has is, but stock ones do. I wonder if doing what you say will fix it? I just like tw4.5 launcher, that's why I'm bummed.

Upload the image somewhere, long press the image in the browser, set as wallpaper, you have your scrollable wallpaper.

[Q] Lockscreen Adjustments on the Juggernaut Rom

Hi, I'm just wondering if any body could point me in the right direction with regards to solutions to two issues I'm having.
1) On the Juggernaut rom (and I'm assuming most Samsung stock roms although I haven't even tried one), the lockscreen wallpaper is different than the regular wallpaper. I have a collection of wallpapers, and I use a Wallpaper Changer app to automatically change them every ten minutes.
I want the lockscreen/security screen wallpaper to be the same as the homescreen wallpaper so that I can remove the bore factor of having the same wallpaper for more than ten minutes . Anybody know any way to accomplish this?
Most ROMS I've seen on other devices aren't like that. I think it's a Samsung "Feature".
2) Also, I'd like to be able to completely disable the lockscreen without disabling the security screen. I've noticed that sometimes after typing my security pin it comes up. Also, using WidgetLocker on Juggernaut sometimes means I have two lockscreens which is undesired.
If anyone has any ideas, please let me know

[Request] Lockscreen with PIN/Pattern lock and weather on JB

Hi,
I've looked everywhere for this, and can't seem to find it.
I'm looking for a very similar thing to cLock (formerly Chronus) from CM roms.
It allows not only time but weather to be shown on the lockscreen and still allow you to have security with pin or pattern locking.
I also searched through all apps/themes sections, and couldn't find this. I can't be the only one wanting password protection on a good looking lockscreen?! haha
I don't want to switch to CM rooms just for this, as I don't find them stable enough yet.
I've tried Go locker and still not getting what I's like.
I haven't tried Widget lockscreen as its not free, and I don't want to buy it and find out it doesn't have what I'd like.
Thanks for any sugestion/help..
Settled on Widgetlocker lockscreen with HD Widgets. Its beautiful, but no security. So I kept the stock lockscreen with patern. One annoyance is now I have to go through 2 screen to get to homescreen. Oh well, I can live with it.

[Q] Replacing Default Lockscreen Clock Widget (fully replace)

I'm new to 4.3, and I'm using an S3 (Mobilicity). Rooted, stock rom and recovery. I'd like to know if it's possible to replace the clock widget from the lockscreen entirely. I'm caught between the xposed framework and Puzzle and Dragons, the game just won't cooperate with the framework (crashes upon opening). So, I've pretty much given up on trying to get secure widgets and everything since PaD won't run with them, and instead would just like to replace that default clock widget with something like DashClock.
If there is a way to do this, it would be much appreciated if you could share. I've looked all over and couldn't find anything on this.
EDIT: Alternately, if there was a way so that apps couldn't detect the xposed framework, or if there was another way to enable multiple widgets on a secured lockscreen, that would be great as well.
EDIT 2: Is there a way to bring back the 2-layer lock screen from 4.1? I can't fathom why they would completely leave that out, I love the swipe screen, it's got lots of space to show the wallpaper, and can also be used for other things (like the widgets >.>"), while you still have a second lock screen for the pattern lock.
