Are there any custom roms out there that dont have a lockscreen, I'm am so tired of having these factory lockscreens. I have Lockbot Pro and thats the only lockscreen I want. But alot of time the Lockbot pro lockscreen does perfect then the factory Htc lockscreen kicks in so I have to unlock the htc and then the Lockbot pro...sick of it. I dont want any kind of lockscreen at all but lockbot. I already uninstalled the htc lockscreen then whats left is a froyo looking vanilla lockscreen see through. dont want that either.
why is this here and NOT in the Q&A ? also use the search button .
posted in Q&A, and theres so many different roms to find, Im not a pacient man to much work
Try nolock app from the market. It disables the lock screen on any rom.
tryed that already, only works half the time
If you have a task killer running......it's killing lockbot.
no task killer installed
I'm a beginner, but I've been trying to read up the various posts/wikis around, so I think I have the basics down. I have root and started playing around with various Sense ROMs (because I was familiar with the default Inc ROM, whatever it's called, stock ROM or something?) but a friend has been raving about how he loves Cyanogen (albeit he has a DRIOD) so I tried it out, and liked it.
I really liked the combo weather/clock widget that is included with the HTC Sense UI though, and I was hoping I could somehow copy the .apk files over to the SD card, and then install them after flashing a non-Sense ROM. I've found a few that look promising, like weather.apk and com.htc.WeatherWidget.apk, but after copying them over, nothing would show up in the app or widget menus, so I think I'm either missing files, or it just won't work.
From the little I know, I'm guessing it's perhaps because there are some system files or calls or something specific to the Sense UI that the widget requires to run?
I saw in Titanium backup that certain apps appear to be tied to certain ROMs, for example TB won't let me install "cyanogen settings" on a non-cyanogen ROM.
Is there just a fundamental difference in the code or somewhere that will stop the weather widget from working? Or can I edit or copy enough files to get this to work? Are there replacements for the weather widget? I saw several posts about something called beautiful widgets, but I also heard that it's either no longer available, doesn't work well, or has other problems.
Less importantly, I also prefer the sense keyboard, calculator, and dialer to the cyanogen ones, can any of those be ported over? Or do they have the same problems?
You cannot use Sense widgets with launchers other than Sense. They are tightly integrated.
There's nothing wrong with BW. It's highly customizable and functional. It's definitely still in the market and definitely still being supported.
Cool, I'll go get that.
Any ideas about the calc/dialer/launcher? I don't think those count as widgets, but maybe they're integrated into Sense also.
They are integrated, with the exception of the HTC keyboard. Search for HTC_IME.
If you want your sense items, you will need to run a sense Rom =/

DialerOne
DialerOne will allow for speed dialing in an AOSP ROM.
If you used that feature w/ the Sense-based ROMs, that app is a nice way to get speed dial back. Note that it will replace whatever stock dialer is on the ROM.
Also, the only other place I know of that gives the cool clock/weather for AOSP ROMs is BeautifulWidgets - a paid app from the market.
FWIW - the HTC Flashlight does work in AOSP ROMs.

Fancy Widget Pro
You can skin Fancy Widget Pro to look like the Sense Flip Clock. This is the closest thing to it.
Thanks, I guess the short answer was basically that I just need to get replacements for everything, or learn to like the AOSP versions. Did get Beautiful Widgets though, looks good.
i flashed cm6 rom but wanted to return to sense.
flashed rcmixhd and all was good until i changed the skin.
now a bunch of apps are gone with the home screen.
what should i do? or can i be directed to some faq please?
im new to android, i just came from using a diamond
thanks
Apps are gone, or widgets are gone? Are the apps still on your phone? I don't see the problem here if they are, changing skins will reset the shortcuts on your homescreens.
Hi all. Noob here. Im running areo's CM10. I Iike the AOKP weather icons for the lockscreen. what would it take to change them. Ive seen others have mods for their devices.
be cool to learn something new.
Thanks.
I have installed the Xperia-Z-ized™ v3.4 ROM by Amnix. It is indeed a very good ROM. Better to say best. I have been using it without any lags. But the only thing I can't change is the weather and schedule widget in the lock screen. As a result the time is not visible which is being covered by the widget. I searched a lot for the settings to change it, but I could not find. Can any one help me with the same how to remove it? And also how to change themes in this ROM as 3 more ROMS were said to be provided by the developer. Thanks in advance.
