anyone know how to change the lock screen on "stock epic 4g touch"....thanks
You can download an app called Go Locker. It has many lock screen options to choose from. I'm sure there are others as well. I just like this one.
You can also try a paid app called widgetlauncher from the market

If you're rooted, or going to root Maddoggin's LockMod or Crawrj's AIO Mod (which includes the LockMod), are excellent alternatives.
Widgetlocker is another great one. It has a ton of theme options available on xda.

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

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.

Is there an EASY way (or APP) to change the COLOR (not font) of the lock screen clock?

I use a replacement lock screen app called widget locker. As someone who hates the stock lock screen I can't recommend it highly enough.

I worked around it using the ICS theme. That cleaned it up. Very nice theme by the way. That black font over the white date was pretty ugly.

Actually I own W.L. but removed it a while back. Some of these apps make a simple thing into a complex operation. It just had too many options to keep track of.

The locker is really awesome .... it does give the feel of JB Locke screen ...but it's really sad that lock screen wallpapers can't b selected and it uses the image of the home screen... It would b great if comes with the Lock screen chooser in the next update.... Thanks in advance...
I was Wondering if there were any mods of some sort that would give me / us (XDA) a way to get the lockcreen ( lock type: swipe) on a pattern type lock screen because I'm sure that the community loves the lock screen features which came with our s4.

Yeah i hear ya bro. It used to be an option on the MDL firmware, but it seems like in the later firmwares having the swipe to unlock WITH the pattern lockscreen was removed. At the moment i'm using widgetlocker which gives me that ability, but i would much prefer to have the stock lockscreen with that functionality.
