[Q]Any way to make lock screen images cycle? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I would love to have a different image (pulled from a folder?) every time I see the lock screen or every hour or whatever. I am ok changing lock screens but I don't need anything fancy, the look and functionality of the stock Samsung one is fine. If it had arrow buttons to cycle through the images I'd probably buy it for $5 if someone wants to make it!

I found a decent selection of programs that do it for the desktop wallpaper, it seems odd to me that none of them do it for the lock screen wallpaper. Doesn't seem much more complicated. I may just have to learn to make it myself, I suppose.

[Q] sense screen removal?

hey there i have a 2.3.3 dinc2 so i cant root it yet but i really do like the sense widgets so dont wanna change to adw or launcherpro, but wondering if there is anyway to make it 5 homescreens instead of 7? i know on touchwiz you can but ive looked through all the settings and cant find it on my di2. anyone know if it can be done and how?
No you can't
Why would you want to get rid of home screen? If they aren't getting used then you most likely won't see them and won't bother you. But from what I see after having played with my phone there is no option for that.

Wallpaper position...less screens more of the wallper is visible. I hate that you can't pick which screen is the home screen either.

Err. I guess I had problems trying to get the picture not to get blown up when setting wallpaper.

You can. Go into the Sense previews and hold in one screen and you can move it. Is this what you're talking about?

No not really, that just let's you move the screens around but the home screen is always the center one. what I meant was making any screen the home screen regardless of that screens position

I don't quite understand what you want it to do..You can make any of the screens the home screen by moving it to the center.
He wants to make the left-most screen (for example) the home screen, not just move the contents of the left-most screen onto the center screen.
And yeah, the lack of home screen configureability is probably the biggest reason I don't use Sense. I only use 3 to 4 screens, and don't need or want any more.

Lock Screen = Bad

Anyone know how this can be changed? The motion of having to drag the wallpaper off the screen is pretty lame.
I've been searching for this.
Edit: Adding a lock pattern overrides this or you can look at getting one of the lock screens from the market.
Its the same as the infuse minus the puzzle... Which i miss
.sorta.
Use widget locker?

root will do it. I bet if we just delete their lockscreen.apk it'll default to the standard android pull-tabs.
Also, yeah, worst lockscreen EVAR. It's like they didn't even try, lol.
software can, and will, be hacked. no worries.
I personally like the lockscreen. I even had it on my epic 4g by choice.

Patience guys ... enjoy this beastly device until root comes ... then it'll be perfect ... at-least you guys got it today lol
change to pin or pattern

There's one called Agile Lock that mimics the sense 3.0 lock screen pretty well, plus lets you put any widget you want on it! I've been using it since yesterday and no wake locks/force closes anything weird. I got the paid version, not sure about the free version.
But yeah, I hate the stock lock screen.

Yeah, only the paid version allows you to change the widgets but you can accumulate points on the free version to unlock the feature...at least that's how it was when I last used it

Really? I hated the fact that the pin didn't override the lock screen on my Photon.
Why would I want to worry about accidentally activating the screen (the purpose of the lock screen) when I already entered a security pin?
The lockscreen is better then the one on the 8 lock mod on the epic..
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
I have to agree, that ugly swiping off the wallpaper really seems like they didn't even try. The default Android lock screen is much better.
I went out and bought WidgetLocker just because it was so bad.
i just wished we could at least change the picture
i love the shortcuts for missed notifications
try:
Settings
Display
Screen Display
Lock Screen Wallpaper
Lets you choose whatever you want!
I used this as my lockscreen wallpaper LOL:

Anyone notice quite a lag between hitting power and the screen actually turning on? I just plugged the phone in, and it was MUCH faster to turn on. When I unplugged, same lag. I will test more when its fully charged.

[Q] eliminate stock lock?

ive searched a good bit so if its in the open i apologize. does anyone know if its possible to completly eliminate the stock lock screen or point me to some directions showing how? i know i could just use this that or the other lock screen app but i just really wanna know if its possible to delete that lock screen. thanks in advance, veritas
Try "no lock" in the market
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
thanks for your reply. i was trying to use the new golocker that the go dev team had released and i noticed nine times outta ten when i woke the phone id have to slide the stock lock out the way and then slide the golocker next. i tried the no lock app but i guess it works to good as it disabled both lock screens. it would b nice to have golocker only. but thanks for the advice.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
If you have the lockmod then you can go into the lockscreen settings and set the style to "none".

Oh ok I thought u meant get rid of stock lock completely. For me I use widget locker and they have a root override that allows to bypass 10 second rule for apps.

what 10 second rule?
Its when u shut the screen and immediately wake it again there is a delay bc of android os limitations so widget locker has to wait like 3 seconds before showing.
I mixed up the 3 second android rule with the food fall on ground 10 second rule.

Not understanding, did you follow what eao1991 said? Switching the style to "none" shows no lock screen at all.

lockscreen

i was wondering if there was any way where you dont have to choose a separate lockscreen wallpaper than homescreen one.
im currently on stock and would like to stay on it.. not a huge fan of go locker... i just wondered if there was any other way to get the same wallpaper for both without having to set it twice... slight OCD issue lol ( i swear there was a way around it on the galaxy s 2)
Use Quickpic
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
Just set the wallpaper twice.
If it still keeps you up at night, a shrink will be more useful than a dev to fix the problem.
Oh forgot about that on stock
I thought there was an option in the lockscreen wallpaper to set it as homescreen one?
Sent from the cracked screen of my GALAXY Ace.
go to settings, then display, then wallpaper. select lockscreen and choose none. then your lockscreen paper will be the same as your desktop paper. when you change your desktop paper, lockscreen will match. hope this helps
No option to set same as homescreen one, maybe its because im on the i version :-/ mehh shall probably end up rooting it soon, never takes me too long before i do.. Cm7 possibly

there is NO setting to set the same pic for lockscreen and homescreen. all you need to do is select none for your lockscreen in the settings location I told you to go to. simple as that....
No thats what im saying i dont have the option to do.. It literally says wallpaper gallery or gallery.. Trust me if it said none then i would have clicked it straight away.. I just didnt know if there was another way around it but it sounds like not

Clear circles burnt onto screen...

Hello I have 4 perfect circles going vertically on the right half of my screen, they are about a half inch diamenter. They have an outline of about a 1/10th of an inch outline.
Anyone else have this issue? I tried to take a screenshot but this is a screen issue so it doesn't come out on the pictures. Ill try to get a picture.
Any input on what they could be??
They are more easily viewed on whote backgrounds or any light color background

First ive heard of that. Probably need to try to send it back for exchange.

Did you have an image on screen for an extended period of time? This sounds like a burn in. It happens on these screens when something is on the screen without moving or any changes. It just burns in. If you go thru some of the settings on the phone there is an option that helps against this.

If I use my alarm clock the stock Android one and dim the screen so the large clock shows will that lead to a burn in? It's something I would always do with my old lcd but now I'm scared with this phone
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Are you using a screen protector? If so, try the burn in test without that on and see if those circles are still there. It might just be the screen protector.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
The four circles may be correlated to the four fingertips of your left hand. Could it be that the screen protector is damaged with some kind of oil deposits? Have any KFC lately
I have the same thing. You only see it when you look at the phone from the side... so I don't mind at all

Yes leaving the screen on all night with the clock can cause burn in.
