[Q] How to remove the crappy lockscreen?

So. I got my 5th android telephone now, Galaxy S2, and i absolutely love it. I have ofcourse, rooted the phone and removed most of the crappy samsung apps as most of them just seem to drain battery.
Its almost the perfect phone for me now. There is however one thing that remains and endless anoyance for me. Was the same with S1.
How on earth do you remove that redicilous lockscreen? Or change it to something else? I dont mean changing the lockscreen picture. Just replacing it with some other lock screen. Like the one that comes with HTC Desire and so on.
Just to be clear. I know how to turn lockscreen of. But i want to CHANGE it. I hate the swipething.

5th Android phone and you haven't heard of Market?.. Widgetlocker or who knows how many other options? Maybe post questions in the Q&A section also.

You can try "widget locker" from Market and there is also an app "Agile Lock" that makes the same Lockscreen as its in Sense 3.0 (with the Ring and shortcuts).

Don't usually jump in these, especially when I'm new to the samsung side of xda but I think your the one being a sour tard... Your the one posting questions in the themes and apps section and when he provided you an answer you insult him... smh go investigate the market and while your at it learn how to search.

Widget locker and Agile lock(currently using) are the best alternatives to stock lockscreen. But if you like to read your facebook n rss feeds then you might want tui try out the Flyscreen which is also free. There are other apprentices as well. But these are the best ones to my concern.

[Apk-Widget] HTC Style Flip Clock That Actually Flips

Just wanted to share this with everyone. It has Chinese writing at the bottom of the widget but it flipps just the the HTC one. Really smooth must try!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.moji.mjweather
Finally got a hold the developer. Will keep everyone posted.
This is the email that I received last night from the developer about making a English version.

If anyone likes how the clock works let me know I'll make contact with the developer and see if I can talk him into making a English version.

they all look alike to me...and no, that wasn't a racist comment. i just dont know the language so they all look like gibberish to me.
either way, not a huge fan of the old sense look. i would love the sense 4.0 clock widget that flips and uses english. i would be down with that.

I like it. I always loved the flip animation from the HTC clock. That's the only reason I like sense lol

I remember seeing a place to download for an HTC sense 4.0 style clock. I'll get the download after school for you guys. Here's what it looks like . It's an .apk file too so no flashing!
*Edit- here is the link. This is the first apk, but I'm pretty sure theres more posted later in the thread

Yeah I love the HTC clock. Using the non-flipping one now posted on the forum and loving it. The flip part would make it complete. Hopefully no lag will follow though.

This is the widget from MIUI IIRC. If someone could customize it to look like the HTC one that would be sweeet

Sense 4 Camera

Is there a port of the Sense Camera for the Galaxy Nexus yet???

I think he was being rude. But, so many people ask this question or similar. Its irritating when a simple search or look at the dead Sense 4 ports in the Dev section would've answered his question, without needing a useless thread. The finger goes both ways guys!

There is no sense camera port, and there never will be.

Sense 4 has a proprietary imaging chip. Ports will never be anything more than an interface.

The rezound has a sense 4 rom Your point?
Its completely possible to do, I lack the knowledge but from what I do know you basically have to remove the dependencies from the framework to make the camera app depend upon itself or make a framework app specifically for it and include it with it
Not that anyone wants to, the sense 4 camera isn't much better than ours. Its a little more visually appealing but that's it
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

The HTC V phone doesn't have one does it??? The chip meant specifically for the camera.
And I did search. And ports are either for sluggish in development because the Dec has a life or development is dead.
That is why I'm asking here. Because sometimes there is some one out there who has a working camera.
I have stuff other ppl don't have who are trying port apk that I extracted and got working.
This is why is asked.

[REQ] Screen Recorder

Hello my xda brothers. I just recently watched a hands on preview for the galaxy note 2 and saw a pretty cool feature; Screen recorder! The feature lets you record audio and video of whatever screen your on and then send it as a MMS! The S3 doesnt have that feature to my knowledge and I know it MAY be apps that allow it to be possible, but I was wondering if there may be someway to create it and mod it to be a feature within a rom? I'm no developer by any means, so excuse my "Noob-nish"
Video link for better idea of what im talking about. Jump to 06:27 in video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DcgZum8M1o

It certainly should be possible! Ill have to look at that when I get home! Thanks for the heads up. I saw something similar but it only took many stills and tried to make it easy to put them together for a video screenshot of sorts. Not worth the effort to me.
Though I doubt I'd be sble yo make it work, Id love to try. And there are some absolute geniuses here so im sure itll happen at some point anyway.

I dont believe there is a forum yet for the note 2, the device wasn't officially released yet. But that is a great idea, I wonder if the note 1 has this feature and it can be "ported over" (dont know if thats the right term tho. LOL)

Thank you!! I thought that feature was so cool. The note 2 and S3 will be pretty much distant cousins, so even if It's not possible yet, Im pretty sure some one will cook something up once the device is released in October. If you come up with something, PM me. I will test if needed!!

I've been using this app for a long time.. works on many phones. Need to be rooted of course

Sent from Flip's S3

D;
Lol, you guys are pretty harsh. I don't think there's anyway to do that, unless you theme the android browser or something....

It's because the OP has started now 4 threads about how to get his SGS3 to be more like an IPhone (2 of the threads were identical and now extinct).
@OP 2 things here.
First: I see that you are doing all this from your Tapatalk app. While the app is a nice convenience, it cannot do everything. You need to hop on a PC and start using the Search function, reading and looking around before starting redundant threads.
Second: You may want to look into an AOSP ROM (don't start a thread asking which one or which is best, I'll close that before you can blink your eyes) and then pull an IOS theme from this thread. I know for a fact that there is one (because I searched it). It will theme most things to be like IOS (IOS5 actually), but you have to realize that this is Android, so while there is some things that cross over (Instagram), not everything will/can (Safari).
Please do not open any more threads without doing research and reading, as you'll probably get the same treatment and then I have to come in and clean and close and that isn't much fun for anyone.

See what you did? You made everyone angry.
Common sense my boy. Two different platforms. Two different systems.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

might as well tell you about iLauncher as well before you start opening threads about how to make your homescreen look like an iPhone. who are you trying to fool?

Some words of advice here: whenever you want something to look, be, or have any questions about Apple and any of there products (unless you are talking about the fruit in an OT thread) just search and if you can't find it then it probably doesn't exist. You will get raided with "iPhone sucks!" And all its variants if you mention something about Apple and any of its affiliations. If you want something to look/be Apple ask a developer, the most they will say is "no". If you look on the play store there may be an app that looks like safari, but I doubt it. Good luck!

That's great that you wanna customize it, but there is tons of themes available in development, there is a thread called morpheology or something, you can customize it so much that it looks nothing like an iPhone or stock android but looks amazing and to your liking.. There's so many apps that can help you change icons, lock screen, make custom widgets, you just gotta search man
