Widget Locker users, some help plz!

Is there an app or widget that can display the text message you last received on the widgetlocker lockscreen?
As you guys know, with the Sense UI lockscreen if your phone is locked and if you receive a text it will show you who sent the text, what time they sent it and a line of text what they said on the lockscreen. Widgetlocker does not do this and I talk to the developer and he said there are tons of apps on the Market for this but I cant seem to find any (he's not for sure if he's gonna add a last message received option on the lockscreen anyways).
Can you help, I really miss this option (and a native music app on the lockscreen as well).

Not sure what version you're using. My suggestion is contact the dev. I'm using a beta version that lets you "hide" sms so my impression is that in upcoming versions this may be working.
The dev's website is:
http://teslacoilsw.com/

I have the latest version, 1.26, there is an option to hide 3rd party SMS apps but for the native Sense UI there is no options to show. Thats what I'm using native Sense UI for all my text messages. I have talk to him but he doesn't really have plans to incoroprate it (or not high on his priority list for future WL updates).

My only suggestion and then I'm going on my way, contact kevin from teslacoilsw
He's pretty good about responding.

Thanks.
Any others can help?

Messaging widget. Throw one of those on there. That's what I did. Works great. Then you can reply to it whenever you want. Right on The lockscreen

I DO NOT want a lockscreen on my HTC EVO. I already uninstalled the htc lockscreen then I was left with a transparent vanilla lockscreen that you slide from left to right. I dont want any lockscreen. please help.

Did you perform any Google searches at all? I found this in, literally, 5 seconds:
Bye Bye Lock Screen

all of these no lock apps work only half the time, so I'm so tired of dealing with lock screens. I have already used no lock app, and it worked 60% of the time then my lockscreen kicks back in. just want to uninstall all lockscreens even the vanilla one

Switchpro has a toggle that disables the lockscreen. It's in there as "auto lock screen". Works just like it's supposed to.

so I dont want to use anyones half working apps to block my lockscreens. I want to literally go into a file on my evo and uninstall all lockscreens, HTC and Vanilla

Switchpro works great and works 100% of the time.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Go get a flip-phone.
No, really, I'm dead serious. Go get an old flip phone and use that.

well this sucks

I know man, it really does suck. What a piece of **** this Evo is.

lol.........lol
You would probably have to decompile the framework and find the file.....probably the services.jar file....but that's just my guess.

come on I know some of you are tired of having an app that trys to block your factory lockscreen only to have it kick back in sometime. For example if you have LockBot pro lockscreen running, it does a ok job trying to keep your factory lockscreen not to kick in. So I just dont want any kind of lockscreen running. that way my lockbot pro can run without any issues

this has been hell for awhile now, all people keep saying is to install some half working app from the market...everyone of those dont work all the time, I've test just about every one, and my factory lockscreen shows its ugly face after a while

Like I said...No HTC or Vanilla lockscreens... this is the vanilla lockscreen I'm talking about that kicks in after the uninstall of HTC Lockscreen I'm left with this:
and dont have Tmobile I have sprint this pic is the only example I can find of the vanilla lockscreen

Yeah, It will require some code editing. I don't believe that there is a simple uninstall. Try decompiling the services.jar and see if you can find the lockscreen call.

No Lock app from the market, works like a charm.

Are you running a task killer? That could be killing the lock apps.

[SOLVED] Where did my lockscreen clock go?

I have a G2, not a DZ but it's running Sense (Virtuous 7.2)
I figure I'd find more Sense expertise over here (until the merger makes it a moot point )....
Anyway...
I was messing around with Launcher Pro and Widget locker. Decided I wasn't a huge fan of either and uninstalled them. Now my lockscreen clock is gone.
I'm talking about the big widget one with weather in the top half of the screen, not the little one on the actual unlock slider.
I've spent the last hour going through every damn settings page I can find and I'm unable to find a setting for this.
Things I've tried:
Reboot - nothing
Switching scenes and skins - nothing
Clear Sense data from "manage apps" - nothing other than having to rebuild all my home screens
Things I have yet to try:
Restore nandroid from before - I'd prefer not to.
Factory reset - same.
So... is there some way to turn this back on? It's a small thing but I really like that widget on the lockscreen.

If its not that one, apologies.

sounds like he is talking about this one to me too.
long press home screen > widget > htc clock widget, scroll along the list till you find it.

Yeah that's the one. I've removed and added it to my homescreen and that works fine, it's just no longer showing on my lock screen.

I've never had my home screen Sense clock showing on my lockscreen, just the time showing up on the Android slider on the lockscreen. Maybe I've missed an option though ?

LOL don't tell me that, now I'm starting to doubt my sanity... Perhaps I'm thinking the big ugly stock android clock????? Agh. I'm going to make a new backup and then restore that old nandroid. That'll tell me if I've lost it or not.
Thanks all.

You must have added the HTC clock/weather widget to the widgetlocker lockscreen.. stock HTC lockscreen only has the small clock on the bar

That's a different lockscreen though, not the stock one.

[Q] widget displaying missed calls etc notification

Working on a new home screen. Trying to find a widget that displays notifications for the following:
Essential:
Sms
Missed calls
email
Not as essential:
Facebook
twitter
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The widget needs to open the application too.
Similar to how the iPhone works.

Try "SMS Unread Count".

There is also MissedIt: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sIm5ldC5pZ2VjZWxhYnMuYW5kcm9pZC5NaXNzZWRJdCJd and Executive assistant+ :https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwxLDEsImNvbS5hcHB2ZW50aXZlLkV4ZWNBc3Npc3QiXQ..
I, personally use MissedIt.

other option
you could also try ADW Notifier.

I bought missed it earlier, can't find where to put the transparent .png on my sd card though. The directory isn't there.
I use launcher pro plus but the ADW Notification seems to be spot on what I am looking for.
EDIT: Just tried ADW, doesn't support more than 7 grid landscapes. That's what I am using. So back to square one.

Sorry to hear, perhaps someone else got suggestions for 7+ grids......

For MissedIt you don't need any .png image, just play with settings, there is an option to make transparent background, just have fun with it.

Worked with go launcher and go launcher notification:
Thanks for the help.

The ultimate way is minimalist text, a free App from market, but to display missed call u will need taskers a paid an must have App, it can display the name, number of the last incoming n outgoing call
As u can see in the screen shot :"raju" is the name of the incoming call click on it n u either directly call the person or show call log

I know this sounds dumb but.

My lock screen is now penning up to the "clock widget" instead of the "personal info" widget. I have nothing else on my luck screens and have selected no widgets.
This just started when I changed the Life Companion to something else. Any ideas on how to only have that screen

Pretty close. In the Lock screen un-check "Multiple widgets". Then select "Lock screen widgets", then "Clock or personal message". Setting to Personal message will then give you the option of editing the personal message screen (or clock settings depending on choice).

I promisr I'm not dumb. Am I just missing something? Here are my settings

Ohhh ok. So the pattern lock screen adds some extra steps.
1) settings -> my device -> lockscreen
2) Change screen lock to 'swipe/no security' (temporary fix)
3) This should unlock the ability to uncheck 'multiple widgets' - uncheck it
4) Go into `lock screen widgets', make sure you're set up properly there
5) Go back, re-enable pattern lock
6) Success?

Perfect! Thank you so much! Thank you thank you
