Did a quick search on the GN forums here and couldn't find much-
I'm looking for a mod that I can flash that will add to the lockscreen ring's north position a way to silence the phone...
Couple of caveats:
1. I know widgetlocker does this - have not been able to find info on how it's working out for GN folks; have used widgetlocker in the past and it did funny things (sometimes default lock screen would come up) on my motorola droid devices, so while I know it's an option I'd opt for it last...
2. Go Locker does this I think, but it requires Go Launcher - and I don't think Go Launcher works on 4.0
I'm using ARHD 2.1.2 atm

is this the lock screen controls you want? (the one from the video)
There is an app that works with either stock music player of music mod by Eliot Stocker on the market. Haven't tested it, but I can imagine it'll be along the same lines

Re:
I'm running one of the latest cyanogen roms and yes the lockscreen controls are awesome. I really missed that part from sense. And I must disagree with dmpwd because I feel the controls are way better implemented on cyanogen.
1) You can choose if you want the controls always available or not (unlike sense which only shows it when music is playing
2) The sense version always slides back down after 1 or 2 seconds which is really really annoying. By the time I hear the next song and determine if I want to skip that one as well it has moved back down again *sigh*
And it's a lockscreen...why would I want to look at the album art when the screen turns back off anyway right after I move to another song? The only thing missing atm is the artist/songname but I wouldn't be surprised if they're working on that already.
Oh, and cyanogen has the longpress volume-up/down for switching songs as well (very handy in the car).
But to each his own . I'm loving the mods/tweaks of cyanogen.

didn't know about that way to switch songs. sounds really good.
btw, would you please confirm whether cyanogen's lockscreen is the one on the youtube video posted in this thread?
thanks!
Re:
If you pause the youtube video at the 15 sec mark, that's what the controls look like. So it's the white controls only without the square borders that are shown. If you pause the music then it only shows the play button. And there's no fast-forward or rewind on longpress of the buttons for instance. I'm using the cyanogen nightly (cm_bravo-07272010-154338) atm.
I just found out the lockscreen controls also work for the Pandora app . No idea if the sense one does that as well but it's handy. Mostly use the default music app myself.
the controls in cyanogenmod V6.0.0-RC1 look slightly different than the ones in the video, they are more basic and I definately prefer them.
Anyone help on how to do this??

Already tried it, would defiantely prefer the cyanogenmod way ;-)
Re:
darkenergy is right. Widget locker is great. You can use any (stock) widget on the lockscreen since it replaces it. I totally forgot about it since I use QuickDesk (which is awesome btw, double tapping the homekey brings up an extra screen which is basically a layer over any open application so you don't have to go back to a homescreen, I use it for all the toggles, a music and messaging widget). The previous versions of widget locker had some problems with QuickDesk and I don't want to be without that app.
The great thing is that now the developer updated widget locker you can also use the doubleclick on the homebutton on the lockscreen, which is really awesome. A single press doesn't do anything, stays on the lockscreen. Just make sure you use QuickDesk as default home, set Widget Locker as launcher in QuickDesk and your normal launcher in Widget Locker
I just updated widget locker to 1.2.2 and put the Pure Music widget on the lockscreen. This means you have the album art there as well if you want it. You can even use the 4x4 widget. Works great. Widget Locker is also very customizable. Hide notification bar, which keys unlock, different background and so on.

Why do you prefer the cyanogenmod way? It's great for sure, especially since you don't need another app but that's about the only benefit I see of the cyanogenmod way . Am all for it to see it as a default/option in other roms, just curious why you prefer it.

1 less app running and I prefer how handcent works with default lockscreen, dont like it with other lockscreens :-D
Hi,
i have a question for developers:
i love sense rom(s) but i'd like to have a Sense rom with Froyo Lockscreen, not only for unlock screen, also for answer a phone call or switch off alarm clock; is it possible?
I don't want a "fake" lockscreen like Lockbot or other apps
Can you make a zip file to install all needed apps to revert back to a Non Sense unlock screen, answer a call etc..? Which apk we need to change?
I don't like Vanilla roms because i hate Gallery 3D and camera apk and i use them (Sense's Gallery an Camera) continuosly with my 2 months son
Thanks in advance,
Andrea

Have a look at the online kitchen of modaco, you can choose to use the standard lockscreen. He does note that it will affect the use of the default alarm.
Here is the link to the topic over at modaco. (I don't know if this rom is also available on xda)
android.modaco.com/content/htc-desire-desire-modaco-com/316565/24-aug-r8-modaco-custom-rom-for-htc-desire-with-online-kitchen-2-2-froyo/
(I don't have enough posts yet to post a link)
Grtz
I flashed PinkyDesire Rom with option to use Default Froyo lockscreen and i love this, but when a call is coming the answer screen is Sense and not Froyo; i think with modaco it's the same
Had the same problem. It's horrible how it switches to the alt lock screen when a call comes in. I ditched it and went to Defrost for a trial run and it's much better. I have nothing good to say about sense.
I got this app up and running just fine, however, I do have a slight concern that I need help on.
My regular lockscreen is coming up after I slide to unlock using WidgetLocker....so I have to slide twice...I've searched Google, XDA and looked at all the WidgetLocker settings but cannot find anything. I have also tried two different lockscreen suppressors but no go.
Help, anyone? Sorry if its a repost and I couldn't find the exact thread that dealt with this, if any.
TGIF everyone
Found this on WidgetLocker Site:
Can I use the Android 2.2 PIN/Password lock?
Yes, but on non-Sense devices it will not be as seamless as the pattern lock. After unlocking WidgetLocker you will see the stock unlock screen, and after unlocking that you will see the PIN/Password entry. On HTC Sense devices the middle step is bypassed, but I have not yet found a way of doing this on other devices. I am looking into the manner.
Question answered..I think, but if anyone else can post if they have disabled the Android lock, I would appreciate it.
(Using stable CM6 at the moment, non-sense)
Have you tried looking in "advanced" and unchecking "retain system keyguard" in widget locker? I believe having this option checked would induce the behaviour you are experiencing. I would test it myself on my phone, but my lockscreen settings are completely bastardized. I manually removed the sense lockscreen so things behave not as planned but exactly how I like.
Disable the lock completely,app called no lock.

Death : I have that option unchecked already.
Gmaine : I tried 'NoLock' and another 5 star rated..or very close to 5 star rated app which I forgot the name to. Any particular order this goes in? Because I just have WidgetLocker running, and downloaded 'NoLock', enabled it, locked screen, unlocked and saw the same 2nd lockscreen after WidgetLocker's...
Nope no order,i was on a sense rom tho and the no lock did the trick for me.

Well, I just heard back from the main developer - it is a known issue.
ok, I read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756479 and there were some suggestions like the nolock app, wildpuzzle, etc.
I just got rid of cm7 and testing shooter's newest, and yea the 3.0 lock is slow and annoying, but rather than just removing, I would love the gesture feature that c7 offers. Is there any way/ app that can do that while not on the c7 rom?
I did search and haven't found anything yet.
Tnx
Since the lockring style lock screen is a feature of sense 3.0 and guestures are a feature of AOSP, you couldn't easily swap it out. Only a skilled developer(or group) could get this to work.
On another note, I did see an app that replaced your lock screen with one that has a gesture function...but I read reviews of it not being implemented well.
Sent from my supersonic using XDA App
There is an app (free in market) called no lock that works quite well for removing the lockscreen altogether.
I knew that back in the day on Sense 1.0 roms you could replace the Sense lockscreen with the AOSP one. I think you also had to switch out the clock so that you could dismiss alarms or something.
I never did this because I never run Sense, but I remember reading about it. I also don't know if it works on 3.0 roms, but it could be a place to start.
You could also try WidgetLocker. It doesn't have gesture support, but you can place sliders, shortcuts, and apps on the lockscreen. I know it's not what you're looking for, but it's a much easier solution & a nifty app as well.

Thanks guys. I used nolock in the past and the only issue is it does just that, it removes ALL security. So if I can't get the gesture, I would settle for a pin/pattern, etc. Even though I enable the pattern security, if nolock is enabled, it ignores that so it seems with a sense rom it's either ring + other security or nothing at all right?
Grrrr! Thanks
Hi,
Can I flash something or install something (not an app because the original and the new lockscreen that I create with the app get mixed up and I sometimes have two lockscreens and sometimes I don't have one at all) to look like AOSP or AOKP. I also want it to be able to lock with a pattern. I want it to look like the first two pictures combined, I have posted, or the third picture I have posted where the widget is expanded (when I wake up the phone the widget is already expanded and I don't have to expand it and have a pattern lock on the phone too). But I prefer the first lockscreen with the unlock options of the second (go directly to message or Talk or Google) (I really like how the weather Widget is, and would like to know how to do that). A ROM with this would be perfect, but I want to keep all the Samsung features(s-beam, NFC, Air View, Motions and Gestures and stuff like that).
Thank You
