Its possible yes....
This is achieved with an app called WidgetLocker...
The possibilities to create your own unique lockscreen is virtually endless..

no i dont mean widget locker. This picture is from a custom rom. And this lockscreen is no app, its an modified stock lockscreen.

Well.. then they have built the widgetlocker app into the ROM...
It's not that unique..
Call it whatever you want,, you can duplicate it with WidgetLocker.

I dont think its widgetlocker...
I mean if they edit their framework (i dunno which .xml it is), they can get this as a normal lockscreen...

Correct.... but OP asked how to achieve the effect on SG2
And the answer to that is WidgetLocker...
I could also write that we could make a launcher for him, but who would bother do that just for the lockscreen which you can mod with stock Touchwiz launcher...
I attached my lockscreen just as an example...

True ^^
I just wanted to say that because i didn't see the WL icon on the statusbar (i've never used it so i dunno if it's always there)
And i was also wondering because it's 99% the same as the original one (the bar on the bottom is the 1% which isn't normal)
and also his carrier is there on top (vodafone.de)

Hi,
just a quick question, how did you get the batter percentage on the lock screen and also missed call, sms email etc icons? I already have widgetlocker but did not see these options. (mine is has now been rooted)
thanks

All android phones have this lockscreen built in, its just a matter of how you
enable it. with my last phone i could delete htclockscreen.apk and my phone
would then have that lockscreen. I dont know the exact procedure to enable
this lockscreen on the sgs2, normally its done by the rom chef and you can
select it in the settings.
Look or ask here for info if you dont want some 3rd party lockscreen (which i dont)

Thank u esk02k:
This is what i was looking for, but i dont know exactly if its possible to use this on SGS2?
I m sure everyone who had a SGS1 with a custom rom know what i mean and what i m looking for.

Did you mean the Android Stock Lockscreen?

Yes Sir

If anyone is willing to spend some time for me, I can get it working. I don't have a device to test. I got good experiance with lockscreens.

Very interested in this too, as I hate the samsung lockscreen. I'd like the CM7 lockscrern (with rotary unlock and battery percentage) even more though.

Cool. I will send you a PM. Lets work on the Android Stock Lockscreen for the latest firmware version.

Ok i m just updating now to XWKE7.

Great, I'm also intrested in this as I don't like the Samsung Lockscreen and Widgetlocker is a bit buggy sometimes. I'm also available to test something if you need me to

Ok done. Now i am on a rooted KE7 Firm. Just send me a pn when you´r ready

Is there a Deodexed ROM for KE7? It would be hard to work with Odexed rom, since you have to re-odex the files using your device and ADB.

TouchWizUX from Galaxy S3 Ported?

Hi!
Is ther anyone who can Port TouchwizUX from Galaxy S3 to One X
and the Accuweather widget to work!

yes the launcher has been ported and will work on any ics device. have a look around, its on xda somewhere.
the accuweather widget is included in this addon pack for cm9 (which also includes the touchwiz launcher) - or there is an option to download this pack with cm9 and flash it together.

SIII Touchwiz on OneX
Unfortunately, this port of touchwiz misses the one part that makes SIII so easy to use. When dropped down notification section, you dont have toggles on top of screen, but anyone wants touchwiz,and can live without this, it runs flawlessly. Worth a look.

Even better: use Widgetsoid, you can customize the toggles in the statusbar to only have those that you actually use.

that is because you need the TW framework to be able to use the toggles. to be honest i prefer the quick settings instead.
launcher seems very snappy. i like it

[REQ] 4.1's Lockscreen

Hi guys!
I am looking for the old original stock lock screen from 4.1 (like in the screenshot). For me is the new one terrible and I was wondering if someone can make a MOD or gave me a hint, how can I do it myself. Sadly I am a noob and I can only root my phone and flash some roms and mods. I am not looking for the Holo Locker or other app. Just want the poor old stock lock.
Can someone help me pls?
Thanks in advance!

I would love to see this as an option in future Custom Roms. Lockscreen widgets always seemed superfluous to me

You can use Widget Locker to set up your lock screen like that. I actually use Widget Locker to get a look similar to the 4.2 stock look on CM 10.1 since the CM one isn't quite the same as the stock one.

I opened a thread showing how you can put anything you like on your stock rom lockscreen using UCCW w/o requiring root or BL unlock; look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2081338&nocache=1 The only thing I haven't yet found how to do on stock rom is change the lockscreen wallpaper.

Here you go, only for stock deodexed roms. Credits to Evillisto in Galaxy nexus forum.

Beat me to it! I tried it on both my Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 a while back and it worked as expected. However, I disable my lock screen using Lockscreen Policy so to me it's a non-issue with the 4.2 lock screen.

You can try Holo Lockscreen app from the play store.

Have you not tried xylon ROM? Or a few others that have lockscreen targets? You can set it up just like that.

Yes, I've tried the most of the ROMs, but nothing works so gut Iike the stock one. Sadly I can not get, what I want, because the my rom is odexed too...
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

I'd like to see the developers given an option in their ROMs for turning the lockscreen widgets on and off. I know for me right now my problem with them is if I try to check my notifications I find myself missing the drag point for the notification bar and then I end up expanding the widget. Very, very annoying.

Yes, a mod like this would be good. I especially hate how Poweramp shows up on lock screen on 4.2. Its like a small ugly box on lock screen. 4.1 lock screen had it perfect.

You can use this if you want to disable lock screen widgets and camera...
It does not give you 4.1's lock screen but gets rid of your lock screen widgets...

Extinction of TouchWiz ROMs

So has development of TW ROMs stopped? Is there not any mods or tweaks left to make a unique TW ROM? I'm kind of getting bored of having the same styled ROMs because honestly all CM based ROMs are pretty much the same because of the fact that they are all CM based obviously. It was nice having TW and CM7. Then getting CM9 and CM10 and now CM10.1 but it seems that all the ROMs have the same basic settings and themes.
Avatar ROM was a little different and I liked it but not too much different since its also CM10.1 based. What I'm really looking for is a TW ROM with all the mods that they're used to be like the lockscreens and clock position in status bar and all the little things that made TW ROMs better. Do any of those even exist anymore for any phone?

You not so satisfied with The People's and Legacy? I don't use them but they still seem popular after all this time.
And why not take time to theme and mod CM ROMs yourself? Themes, lockscreen mods, launchers and widgets are scattered around for you to revamp the experience. Personally I don't like non-AOSP style, but to imitate a GS3 I downloaded a "GS3-Addon", did a bit modification to it and flashed upon a CM10 nightly, which in the end turned out to be REALLY, REALLY similar experience to the real TouchWiz 5!
Just saying, you can try similar tricks yourself, though it takes some time

Could you post a screenshot of your TW 5? I'd like to see how close you've gotten. And your right about all that but I'm honestly just missing the good old TW ROMs that had amazing battery life and many tweaks and themes and stuff. I used to theme TW ROMs and worked on a few mods and I was doing pretty good but that was last summer. Since I started college I haven't really had much free time to work on that kind of stuff.

Not SO close actually TW-specific apps are mostly missing. But apps like S Note, Super Video (floating video player on S3), TW5 launcher and widgets are all there. More I can't remember.
I'll post screenshots 2 days later as we're having tests these days and my E4G is currently on CM10.1 so I have to restore the nandroid backup.

Its cool don't worry about the screenshots.
Do you know a way to get the lockscreen on cm10.1 to be like it was on 10 and 9? I mean to have the rings with the shortcuts before the actual unlock pattern? Is there a way to change that? I wanna start working on my ROM to make it the way I actually want.

@lilajrestnom Hey I have an idea. Settings - Lockscreen - check "Maximize widgets". In this way you'll have to long press the lock icon on the bottom of the screen to bring up the lock security, which I think is just what you want. This is tested to work with "pattern" lock security.

Ya I've done that and that's the closest I can get to what I actually want. I really just wanted the real rings before the pattern lock but it seems like that's the best I can do for now thanks tho.

Lockscreen Note Widget on Unrooted Note 2

Hi,
First of all sorry for being a noob. And my problem is, is there any way for me to put a note/todo widget on the lockscreen of my note 2 running jelly bean 4.1.2, unrooted. Please let me know if there is a way to get there..
Thanks

Lock screen widgets are introduced in Android 4.2, so we don't have them yet. Wait till samsung releases 4.2 version update to our Note 2

Try go locker it has option for lock screen widget. Don't know exactly for note widget

Thanks for the quick response; by the way, i had tried go locker but it seems to be complicating the lockscreen as a whole.. The widgets are placed as a seperate page which makes us swipe from the lock screen to view the widgets. That itself ruins the sense of lockscreen widget i think. We could use that very simple swype on the stock lockscreen to get the whole homescreen with all the widgets. So this sort of idea made me uninstall go locker. I just want to be reminded of my next hr todo s whenever i try to use my phone. So here i think a wait till 4.2 is the only way out rite?...
