Is it possible to install it without using cm7? Samsung lockscreen is laggy as hell, and unresponsive quite often, it's such a shame because i really like the shortcuts for missed calls and sms
I have used widget locker it is nice, such a shame they havent updated it quite a few months , they should add a honeycomb lockscreen
Btw i used the search and found no thread similar to this in the galaxy s ii forums
You can flash tsm parts found in this forum it has 7 different lockscreens including honeycomb.

Simple question is there a custom cm7 lockscreen? I found one for metamorph but I can't seem to get it too work. I have it morphed in but for some reason a no go.
Here is what I tried: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959602&page=85
You have to put the morph you want in the android themes folder open metamorph and hit extract new theme and then apply all sometimes you have to do it twice then reboot

I've never had good luck with metamorph, it seems really buggy to me. I'd like to get some lockscreen customization too, but I just haven't found a very good solution.

May not be what you want to do, but Widget Locker will allow you to do pretty much anything you want to your lockscreen. Using CM 7 you can also go into the settings for Tablets and disable the stock lock screen. It works out pretty well.
Hey,
I hate the default lockscreen.
Does anyone know of a lockscreen theme that would work with Juggernaut ROM?
widget locker is a great app I've used it for quite some time now....
yes, me too
holy moly! awesome app!
Is it possible to get the Samsung SMS notification in the lockscreen to stay active with this app?
Also using WL and it's great. However, sometimes I see flashes of Samsung's default lock screen before WL loads - which annoys the hell out of me. Anyone know of a way to get rid of it? I can't stand their lock screen and quite honestly, Samsung should be embarrassed by it. It's total crap!
Thanks, in advance.
Try magic lock. U can switch between different lock screens like sense or iPhone or the galaxy puzzle lock screen,etc

GO Locker is a good alternative "very New" so not much themes out yet. But more perky than widget locker.
The go locker works great for me i really like the EDT tweaks that come on the sgs 4g custom roms i hope to see thoes soon on some roms

I am on CM7, installed this, but didn't work for when I enabled it, the lockscreen was skipped. How do I (I guess) turn off the cm7 lockscreen so I can use this?
Just downloaded. Works great and it's a nice addition to the ICS 2.1 theme since there is an android 4.0 lockscreen.
What I hate is that the lockscreen is translated but... the original characters from the previous language are still there. Kinda ruined it for me. I won't be using it till that can be fixed. Otherwise it's perfect.

Yeah some of the lockscreens have Chinese characters, and others don't.
I actually posted this app in zandermans thread last week.

I was surprised it didn't get more attention. The lockscreens are my favorite part of MiUI.
I'm running the HyDrOG3N ICS ROM and am very happy with everything other than the lockscreen. I generally hate Touchwiz but after installing the official update on my girlfriend's phone, I find the lockscreen to be much better. If you get a new SMS then it appears on the lockscreen and you can swipe it to immediately go straight to the new message. Similar functionality for missed calls.
Is there any way to get the TouchWiz lockscreen on my ROM?
Download Magiclocker. There's a theme by h_zee13 called Galaxy Note which is exactly what you're after. It is a paid app though.

It's pretty useless since you can just drag down the notification bar on the lockscreen nowadays

I hate touchwiz too!
I ended up going back to a stock Samsung ROM in the end. I have to admit, as much as I used to hate touchwiz, I find it a lot more functional than vanilla ICS.

this app is pretty useful
its called widgetlocker lockscreen. its a paid app though but it has a lot of lockscreens and you don't have to be rooted
i can't paste the link here as I don't have ten posts yet.. sorry bout that
So has development of TW ROMs stopped? Is there not any mods or tweaks left to make a unique TW ROM? I'm kind of getting bored of having the same styled ROMs because honestly all CM based ROMs are pretty much the same because of the fact that they are all CM based obviously. It was nice having TW and CM7. Then getting CM9 and CM10 and now CM10.1 but it seems that all the ROMs have the same basic settings and themes.
Avatar ROM was a little different and I liked it but not too much different since its also CM10.1 based. What I'm really looking for is a TW ROM with all the mods that they're used to be like the lockscreens and clock position in status bar and all the little things that made TW ROMs better. Do any of those even exist anymore for any phone?

You not so satisfied with The People's and Legacy? I don't use them but they still seem popular after all this time.
And why not take time to theme and mod CM ROMs yourself? Themes, lockscreen mods, launchers and widgets are scattered around for you to revamp the experience. Personally I don't like non-AOSP style, but to imitate a GS3 I downloaded a "GS3-Addon", did a bit modification to it and flashed upon a CM10 nightly, which in the end turned out to be REALLY, REALLY similar experience to the real TouchWiz 5!
Just saying, you can try similar tricks yourself, though it takes some time

Could you post a screenshot of your TW 5? I'd like to see how close you've gotten. And your right about all that but I'm honestly just missing the good old TW ROMs that had amazing battery life and many tweaks and themes and stuff. I used to theme TW ROMs and worked on a few mods and I was doing pretty good but that was last summer. Since I started college I haven't really had much free time to work on that kind of stuff.

Not SO close actually TW-specific apps are mostly missing. But apps like S Note, Super Video (floating video player on S3), TW5 launcher and widgets are all there. More I can't remember.
I'll post screenshots 2 days later as we're having tests these days and my E4G is currently on CM10.1 so I have to restore the nandroid backup.

Its cool don't worry about the screenshots.
Do you know a way to get the lockscreen on cm10.1 to be like it was on 10 and 9? I mean to have the rings with the shortcuts before the actual unlock pattern? Is there a way to change that? I wanna start working on my ROM to make it the way I actually want.

It's not there in CM10.1, I checked.

@lilajrestnom Hey I have an idea. Settings - Lockscreen - check "Maximize widgets". In this way you'll have to long press the lock icon on the bottom of the screen to bring up the lock security, which I think is just what you want. This is tested to work with "pattern" lock security.

Ya I've done that and that's the closest I can get to what I actually want. I really just wanted the real rings before the pattern lock but it seems like that's the best I can do for now thanks tho.
