Umm, forgive me for my noobness. But what the heck are these "6 lock screen" and "8 lock screen" mods? What do they do? (I use widget locker which is why I'm asking)
They are just simply different lock screens that get baked into roms. Nothing fancy or anything. Like one would be your normal tw lock screen or your basic android lock screen to a puzzle screen that you have to fit the piece of the puzzle to unlock the phone.
Posted by some phone named the Epic.
You can also get themes with it baked in theyre a cool feature to have

hi, anyone knows how to set lockscreen wallpaper? thx...
Sent from my Hero using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
its the same as your main one - not seperate
Yeah I was quite disappointed with that, I liked having the 2 different ones on my Hero, especially as the type of image you would use for the 2 types would be quite different. On my lock screen I had a nice detailed portrait picture which fitted perfectly to the area that would be displayed on the lock screen and then for the main wallpaper had quite a plain one that looked good when spread over the home screens and didn't interfere with the visibility of the icons.
Now it means I either have to choose to have a wallpaper which has quite a "busy" center meaning it will interfere with icon visibility or I have a plain one which looks boring on the lock screen.
HMPH!
hmmm, that's a shame...
even hero supports to set wallpapers separately

I am also very disappointed that it is not possible to set a different wallpaper for the lock screen. On the Legend it is possible. I like to have a family picture as lock screen background but that is too loaded as wallpaper for the home screen with all the widgets on top of it. In the FAQ for scenes on the HTC support page it is written that it is possible to change the lock screen wallpaper. I have already dropped a ticket at HTC customer service. Even if they don't fix it I still hope that there will be an app soon to make it possible. I already tried Lockbot pro which looks nice but then there are only buttons to take a cal - no sliding. Very sad.
I'm looking for some way to get music/audio controls on the lockscreen for Myn's WarmZ. Its a small feature but one that I find is terribly annoying not to have now that its gone after switching over. Are there any mods around that provide this functionality with Warm Z?
I don't believe you can with the Sense lock screen, but you could try a replacement lock screen like Widget Locker. Costs a couple bucks but it does exactly what you're describing.

Synergy makes the best weather lock screen out.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24508795#post24508795
when you open your phone the weather items come at you almost like 3d.
Anyone know how to mod this to work on the SGS2 Touch? Would be truly awesome.

Looks nice, it'd be great if it was possible to port or something to this phone.

This requires HTC Sense. I worked on some of these in the past but until someone ports Sense to the Epic Touch your probably going to be out of luck.

That's more of a feature mod for HTC Sense. Hopefully, when swamp golbin gets his Epic Touch and ports sense we'll get to see that beautiful lockscreen
Try beautiful widgets. VERY nice to weather widget

Be Weather looks amazing. But I see it's using Weather Underground data. Since they were bought buy The Weather Channel Companies a couple weeks ago I bet they're going to stop support.
Thanks. Been using be weather. It is pretty awesome. I like the option to place weather in the status bar and drop down. Cool stuff.
Wish the original maker was still making this awesome weather lockscreen.
I tried it out and while it is pretty cool, I did not see an option for a transparent widget. Only way I can use a weather app with a widget on my homescreen since I want to see my wallpaper as well. Mind you I am talking about the free version. The pro might have it but I didn't want to pay to find out that such a widget did not exist for this app.
hi there, nobody posted any lock app thread yet so here it goes.
I tried Go unlock but i think it hogs the resources over time and become laggy.
anyone else can recommend a sturdy one to install?
or any good rooting mod for this to make it 100% smooth?

Try the MIUI lock screen. They made it free and available through Play Store. You have tons of styles, themes, and all you ever wanted from a lock screen..
thanks, tried MIUI just now.
It has the 3dot menu on the lock screen after setting lock screen.
so i suppose the 3dot menu mod will get rid of this.
still feel bit un-smooth with MIUI tho.
some reason the sense one is the best so far
Try this.

Does someone know a metro-style lockscreen that runs stable and hasn't got the 3dots menu enabled? I just tried a few but there was none that really worked. Unfortanetly, for I love the tiles' look alot.
Another question: is it possible to change the icons of apps on WidgetLocker? And is the 3dots menu disabled?

I run widget locker myself, lets you have all sorts of different unlockers as well as run widgets and separate wall paper, umoung other features, all on the lock screen.

Hello,
I use widgetlocker on my One X. Yes, you can change the icons af the apps. Also there is no "3dots menu".
When you install adwnotifier you also get notification-count numbers on the lockscreen like in the normal sense lockscreen (for telephone, SMS, Mail[GMail and K9]).
I like it very much and use it in combination with apex launcher on stock rom without root.
Only the sense3 lockscreen from widgetlocker is a little laggy at my phone.
Thank you. I've installed WidgetLocker now and I like it. One problem though: I've got some icons in .png format that work great with Apex Launcher. But if I try to add them in WidgetLocker, they'll get a black background instead of a transparent one. So, how can I use these icons?

This has really gotten to me. I was kinda getting bored of the stock TouchWiz lock screen so i went out and bought WidgetLocker Pro. It serves some of my porouses but i noticed that Notifications from the stock messaging app would not appear in the lock screen. And i kinda wanna pimp out my lockscreen and status bar and all that stuff. (Minus installing a launcher) So if there are any root apps that let me customize let me know. I would like notifications to also be integrated into them...
Thanks
Wow... so much text for such a simple question...
