Looking for a lock screen replacement. - G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps

I'm currently using livelocker but find it to be a bit linear and plane. Can anyone suggest a good versatile alternative.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2

haven't found anything much more versatile than widgetlocker. it is a paid app, though.

miui lockscreens are pretty slick, but that isn't a "lockscreen replacement" - that's a rom replacement... not what op is looking for.

google ripple lock, it's the lockscreen from android 3.0

And... is it possible to remove the lock screen?

CyanogenMod has that feature built-in but if you aren't running it then WidgetLocker has it as well.

Thanks. Lockbot looks nice but I do not want to change the lock pattern. Lockbot will change the lock pattern as well as the background picture on the lock screen.
(I am using Calkulin's ROM and prefer that lock pattern to Sense UI lock).
Bump. Bump.......

[Q] OTA Lock Screen

Is there a way to get that awesome lock screen with the widgets on the OTA rom? Those sense rome are nice but so heavy, but I love the lock screen.
I thought there was an app in the Market that was the ring style lock screen, don't remember its name though...

naw. you would have to rip apart the framework-res.apk and figure out what is used in there to create the lock screen then integrate it to your framework.

Trouble with unlock screen

Had this phone for Two days now and LOVE it. Way better then evo 3d I had. Only issue I have is I struggle to unlock it every time. Maybe the size maybe the touchwiz screen. Either way it makes me crazy. Anyone make a suggestion of a different lock screen that is stable and won't mess up the excellent battery life.
Btw I have no interest in rooting but don't mind buying an app if needed. Also I have no issue with other parts of touchwiz just the lock screen.
I use widget locker. You can set that up any way you'd like. I have the stock aosp lock screen. Does wonders.

Widget locker allows you to customize the lockscreen with a ot of different options. So the AOSP lockscreen is when you slide the icon across to unlock you phone. It is Androids stock lock screen that ships with Android if Samsung or HTC wouldn't add their own.
Agile lock is pretty good too. It gives you a lockscreen similar to sense 3.0

I replaced my stock lock screen with widget locker and haven't experienced any problems (including battery life). It could be that people using widget locker are placing battery intensive widgets on their lockscreen.
Yeah I haven't had any problems with battery life or any slow downs either. This phone handles the battery and speed well. You can set it up however you like, the possibilities are endless. You can even download themes. I just like it so much because I don't have to use the original lock screen for our phone.

Thanks again! I downloaded and have been playing with widget locker and love it so far. Only question I have is ... Is there some way to get rid of the icon in the notification bar that shows widget locker ongoing. I keep thinking there is something I have not checked and it kinda bothers me. Tried to find a setting to get rid if it but no luck. Thanks again

You can use WidgetLocker, Holo Locker, LockBot or any other replacement lockscreens.

Try Go launcher and install go locker plug-in. Highly customizable.

Holo locker is buggy, it unlocks if you tap home button. And has no google voice on the "swipe to top".
Go Locker with JB theme??

I'm pretty sure that no app is able to replace stock lockscreen properly and qualitatively.
Only by modifying/replacing the system files can be achieved desirable result...
The best solution will be provided by JKay's Mod.

Still does not play nice with 3rd party launchers. I remember some lame bug on it, plus the fact it hasn't been updated since then.
I'm also using holo locker at the moment i'm currently on wanamlite 3.8 but would rather have the JB lockscreen so have resorted to using holo locker for the moment until i ca find a way of flashing the lock screen if its even possible???
Holo Locker has a few bugs which iritate me when ever i close the screen down you get the standard lock sound which it then does again a couple of seconds later
Use Jkay deluxe framework, it has the original android locker

Thanks a lot. But it is not exactly what I want. I just need lockscreen +maybe CRT on/off, that's all. I don't need any tweaks related to taskbar/tasklist etc.
How can I get it separately?

I am currently using Omega v33.1. But I badly miss the original jellybean lockscreen that came with parandroid rom which I tried not so long ago. I will keep searching for this on XDA as well as Google (just a noob expression I'm afraid). Hopefully I will find some mod which modifies some system files to achieve this. I have tried widget locker from play but experienced some irritating bugs.
BTW could anyone please guide me how to request some developer to build this or at least discuss is it possible at all.
Cheers.
I tried holo locker from play store. Pretty descent with no apparent bugs or fc. But sadly it isn't compatible with juicedefender. Prevents auto disable of data/wifi while screen is off.
