[Q] Lockscreen - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

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

is this possible for the Epic4g?

This was part of a theme in the g2/desirez thread.
Is there anything like this for the Epic4g.

+1 on this
The dual locks would be awesome.
Pretty sure I would **** bricks if we had a lockscreen like that. I use sms popup, but this would be awesome.

If we're talking about the lockscreen then, like alfiej said, widget locker can fill it up with sliders and widgets. I do have a question about that link tho. Does the gingerbread lockscreen actually have multiple sliders and/or can it be customized like that on stock? Or is the multiple sliders a change made in CM6.1?

I really don't like running apps in my background (especially lockscreens).
1. They dont work all the time.
2. They take up too much memory.
I used widget locker and my phone died much faster than without it. I had my phone unplugged yesterday for 15 hours before it got down to 80%. With it, it was down at like 60%. Sorry dude.
No need to apologize dude, I just was naming what does this. I bought widget locker a few weeks ago and got a refund within an hour so I feel your pain.

What's dope about this one is above the sliders you can draw gestures and it will automatically launch those apps
I actually really like our stock lock screen because it basically has these same features. I'd probably go for this one if it was available to us because I like the vanilla layout better.

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

Go Lock Screen (New!)

Hey guys, for those of you who have Go Launcher, the team just release a Go Lock Screen app which is really really nice. It's quite difficult to search on the market so to find it do the following:
Press Menu > Go Store > Go Locker (one of the four picture box on top) > Go Locker > Install
All the lock screens are really nice; I'm currently using the FourKey theme.

Holy crap! this thing rocks. Think I found my widget locker replacement..... for now.
I can't find the app. I'm using ADW. I'll wait until it pops up. It looks nice though.
Widget locker just got updated too for ICS, and its pretty slick...

You have to have Go Launcher.
Oh man. I already set ADW the way I want it. So in order to use the lock screen I have to use Go Launcher too right? Is there any way around that?

Not that I know of. Widget Locker just updated their app today as mentioned above, it's pretty nice with their new themes too.
EDIT:
There's no way to change the lockscreen wallpaper?
I can't download Widget Locker. It just stays at loading via the Market. This sucks.

[Request] ICS Lockscreen

I'm wondering if i can get a lockscreen like this
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dj.golocker.theme.icecream
i don't use Go Launcher as i don't rate it over TW so im wondering if this is available for TouchWiz and is also compatible with JKay too, my current lockscreen is shown below screenshot and it is fine but i feel like a change.
Thanks
Widget locker is for you. Search on the market.

Cheers, yeah i know about widget locker is it compatible with JKay too?
A couple of reviews say this drains your battery so ill give this a miss and look for an alternative, €2.25 for something like this is a bit steep anyway when you have similar apps for free.

try MiLocker it uses MIUI lockscreens on any rom, and one of them should fit the bill for what you want.

best recommendation you're going to get if you don't want to pay.
Unfortunately, even when using MIUI there isn't a "smooth" version of the ICS locker that really mimics the original (which is slightly annoying).
I think WidgetLocker might be quite smooth but as you say, it costs..... just depends how much you value an awesome lock screen
EDIT:
Use MIUI Locker -- and use the lockscreen downloaded here:
http://www.box.com/s/j1imigk1qyrfr21rmk55
let me know if this was what you were looking for
EDIT again (lol):
Search for BlackIce 2.3 on Google, and download that MTZ file, closest you'll get to ICS lockscreen with added customisation you were looking for.
It's late and I'm going to bed otherwise would look out a link for you hehe
Cheers mate ill have a look into this, i don't mind paying for apps ive lots of paid apps on my phone but i just don't think Widgetlocker is worth the money...anyway ill have a look at your recommendation.

Just disable Jkay lockscreen from Jkay deluxe settings.Set home screen to 'none' and use any other lockscreen.
Try:
Magic Locker (like Silshnair said:s)

[REQUEST] Centered LOCKSCREEN Clock

I've been using Codename Android for a while and one thing i really liked was the clock on the LOCKSCREEN being centered.
I've now moved to AOKP where the clock is like the stock one, aligned to the right.
I'm hoping for a mod or hack that can center the LOCKSCREEN clock and all other text thats displayed there.
preferably something easy and flashable, but i'd understand if thats not possible.
Again, this is for the LOCKSCREEN, NOT NOTIFICATION.
just bumping this since it's been 24 hours
I would love this.
+1 for center clock. I liked that on CNA.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
well i'm glad i'm not alone here.
I just sent a tweet to the current CNA dev asking him if he could share a way to do it.
i loved CNA, but after moving to AOKP, don't think i'll be going back.
well, been a couple days, so another bump.
Really no one knows how to do this?

well thats what this post is about, a request.
as far as weather on the lockscreen, you have a few options there.
AOKP can have weather on the lockscreen and notification bar
beautiful widgets can have weather in the notification bar and then a simple pull down.
Widget Locker can be used to put a weather widget on the lockscreen.
my thing is that i love the stock lockscreen, especially in AOKP with it's features, but want a centered clock as the others above do.
I'll try and work on it.
