[Q] Replace TW lock screen? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hi all,
I am trying to achieve a close-to-AOSP look. However, I'm having trouble with the lock screen. I've tried Holo Locker and Magic Locker, but both don't completely replace the TW locker---for instance, when you lock the screen, you hear two "ripple" sounds instead of one; also, I have PIN security forced on by the evil Exchange client, and the keypad that shows up is the TW one, not the Magic Locker one.
Any advice? I've searched a bit, but nothing seems applicable or working... Thanks!

Under - Menu>Settings>Lock Screen> set the lock screen to none & let holo locker do the rest !

Can you change the lock screen?

Don't really like the whole swipe-the-lock-screen-off-the-screen thing. Any way of changing to a more basic lock screen? I'm not rooted yet but will be rooted soon

I just installed Magic Locker and it's awesome. There are a ton more options in the Market.
Thanks works much better!
Magic Locker is a good free program.
Widget Locker is much more customizable and better IMHO.
Either is better than stock by far.

[Q] Sense 4 Question (Weather Animations)...

Hi Guys,
Just started using Sense 4.0. Stupid question... much like the previous versions of Sense, the weather animations (wipers when raining, clouds across the screen, and etc...) that used to show up on the screen when the phone was unlocked; has Sense 4 gotten rid of these animations?
I mean, I see the weather animations in the clock/weather app, the Weather lock screen, but not the animations that used to show up on the home screen, after the phone was unlocked... Is that gone in Sense 4? Can someone confirm? Thank you.
The full screen animations are selected when you add a weather widget, such as the default clock. Just remove the clock, and add it again, it'll give you the option
No it hasn't gone from sense 4.0, you just need to remove the clock widget and then add it to the home screen again and it will give you the option to enable full screen weather animations. Hope this helps.
Edit: looks like edge3uk just beat me to it.
Hi
Yes you can get weather animations, you have a couple of choices:
On the Lock Screen
Go to Settings - Personalise - Lock Screen and select Weather. Now whenever you turn your phone on you get a weather animation for your location.
As a wallpaper
Go to Settings - Personalise - Wallpaper - Live Wallpapers and select the Weather
Note that these options, especially the live Wallpaper will be using a little bit more battery power then viewing a static wallpaper image, of course that only impacts you if the phone spents a lot of time on with the wallpaper on show.
Another option, generally more accurate, in real 3D, is to look out of a window or go outside Yes I too have animated weather, it just looks cool lol.
Edit: and another way is to use the widget as already posted, so that makes 3 so far.
Regards
Phil
It is off by default. Just long press the clock&weather widget and push it to edit, click your current location, and tick show full screen animation.
Guys,
thank you for ALL your wonderful replies! Indeed, the animations work for me now, BUT, I cannot figure out what "triggers" them on the home screen... they just happened randomly, I can't deliberately kick em off...
For example in earlier Sense versions, the way to kick it off was, EVERY time you unlocked the phone, and the home screen had the Weather clock, the animations would go....
That doesn't happen in Sense 4, can someone confirm this or tell me what I am missing?
Thanks again!
well for me they only appear after unlock.

[Q] Replacing Default Lockscreen Clock Widget (fully replace)

I'm new to 4.3, and I'm using an S3 (Mobilicity). Rooted, stock rom and recovery. I'd like to know if it's possible to replace the clock widget from the lockscreen entirely. I'm caught between the xposed framework and Puzzle and Dragons, the game just won't cooperate with the framework (crashes upon opening). So, I've pretty much given up on trying to get secure widgets and everything since PaD won't run with them, and instead would just like to replace that default clock widget with something like DashClock.
If there is a way to do this, it would be much appreciated if you could share. I've looked all over and couldn't find anything on this.
EDIT: Alternately, if there was a way so that apps couldn't detect the xposed framework, or if there was another way to enable multiple widgets on a secured lockscreen, that would be great as well.
EDIT 2: Is there a way to bring back the 2-layer lock screen from 4.1? I can't fathom why they would completely leave that out, I love the swipe screen, it's got lots of space to show the wallpaper, and can also be used for other things (like the widgets >.>"), while you still have a second lock screen for the pattern lock.

Lock screen - contact & customization

Hello all,
I just moved from GPE to Sense on the HTC 10 and was wondering in what measure the lock screen can be customized.
I'm using nova launcher or google now launcher and when the screen is locked I seem to see the setup/dock from Sense launcher.
Also is it possible to customize the lock screen? Add a message/ widgets?
Thank you,

Mi A2 Lite is an Android One device, meaning you don't have many customisation options, so I don't think there is a way to hide the clock on lockscreen. You can search for lockscreen apps on Play Store, which change your lock screen to a 3rd party app (most of them aren't as stable as stock though) :good:
You can have custom lockscreen but I don't think that is possible without root, or even better - xposed.
I am using Lock screen clock mods (xposed tweak) and its working great.
