I have today installed Froyo on my Galaxy S. All works great but I had an app that I loved got creating widgets in the form of icons.
This then meant using this app or in conjunction with Launcher Pro Plus I could make bigger icons for some apps.
I cannot remember the name of it though.
You selected it from the Widgets menu after a home screen press and hold then it let you choose the app and the custom icon, then the size you wanted.
Any help much appreciated.
It was a free app.

until Dev make it possible to block home button unlock, this lockscreen is useless and just another pretty lockscreen like many other in the market.
So far the only lockscreen able to block the home button in the market is Widgetlocker.
who need another lockscreen that don't actually lock anything since any press to a button you might do by accident in your pocket will unlock your screen.

Everyone has a seperate requirement. What's not good enough for you is very good for the OP and me.

This lockscreen's awesome! PLenty of promise. Bought the paid one straight away.
Hopefully more cusotmisable features are added in the future such as positioning of shortucsts, icons, and themes.

How do you prevent home button from preventing unlock in widget locker? I can't seem to find that setting.

This. I was about to ask if it fixes the home button bypass because it's pretty much useless if it doesn't.

Widgetlocker prevents home button bypass by effectively becoming the default launcher. So you set Widgetlocker as your launcher and then select what launcher you want Widgetlocker to launch.
To do this go into Widgetlocker Settings -> Advanced -> HomeHelper -> enable homehelper -> Select System Home -> select WL HomeHelper and tick the use by default option. Then select HomeHelper's Launncher and select the launcher you want to use. This will then prevent the home button bringing up the home screen when locked using widgetlocker.

Given what we're talking about that makes absolutely no sense to me. To use a simple analogy, surely a lockscreen application preventing the phone being unlocked with a simple button press is as fundamental to it's purpose as a steering wheel is to a car?
u guys still have beautiful widget or fancy widget unlock weather animation with this???

Go find an app that lets you do that. No ones forcing you to use this. I can't help it if it didn't make sense to you.

I have an app that does that, it's called WidgetLocker. And I'm well aware no one is forcing me to use this, well done for stating the obvious. Should all that mean I can't discuss the shortcomings of the application in this thread? Obviously not.
You seem to be completely missing the point of what a forum is for.

I don't mind that home key unlocks your phone but if you touch the app shortcuts they get launched! You don't even need to move them! That's bad... Cuz I accidentally unlock and start apps this way. Stupid!

its actually full of bugs... if you press the home key and want to change its settings the lockscreen starts again.
And it does not support missed events.
And you need to have a services running!

I find that hard to believe. There is nothing in this lockscreen blocking the home button from unlocking the phone. I bought the paid version and even had a chat with the Dev about it and he is working on a solution for blocking the home button from unlocking but currently thats not possible so find it hard to believe it when your saying its not unlocking your phone

been using this two days now.
Yes, slightly buggy , but a VERY commendable start.
support the devs
Like this a lot
For some reason though trying to open my Messages through it causes it to crash :/
FYI - Device is not rooted
Widget locker will let you put a calendar widget on your lock screen.

I think I saw this option in the JB leak. Anyone confirm?

I use widget locked and place the minimalistic text widget for calendar
type R-blood
What are some other alternative locks screens I feel like Widget locker is just getting so lazy, They haven't updated the icons in forever!

I need one that only comes up when needed, not like the WL that stays there even if you don't have any calendar appointments.

Hello and thanks in advance so ive been looking all over and cant seem to find an answer i just updated to 4.3 on my galaxy noite 2 ATT and after going through all the options it seems like i can no longer Have the Weather displayed on my lock screen has this been removed ? if not any helpo in guiding me to set it up will be appreciated
Go into your lock screen settings. Then check the box to allow for multiple widgets. Then down load 1weather app. It has a few choices of clock/weather widgets the works nicely. Add one of the to a new lock screen. Then delete the lock screen that has the normal clock.

Where exactly is the box to check for multiple widgets? I don't see 1.

Hi all,
I really like the stock lock screen, mostly because of the clock but I dont like the way I have to drag shortcuts to unlock the phone to that app. It's there a way to mod the stock lock screen so I can slide the lock icon in a specific direction to unlock a specific app, like AOSP? Thanks
