Hi,
I've looked everywhere for this, and can't seem to find it.
I'm looking for a very similar thing to cLock (formerly Chronus) from CM roms.
It allows not only time but weather to be shown on the lockscreen and still allow you to have security with pin or pattern locking.
I also searched through all apps/themes sections, and couldn't find this. I can't be the only one wanting password protection on a good looking lockscreen?! haha
I don't want to switch to CM rooms just for this, as I don't find them stable enough yet.
I've tried Go locker and still not getting what I's like.
I haven't tried Widget lockscreen as its not free, and I don't want to buy it and find out it doesn't have what I'd like.
Thanks for any sugestion/help..
Settled on Widgetlocker lockscreen with HD Widgets. Its beautiful, but no security. So I kept the stock lockscreen with patern. One annoyance is now I have to go through 2 screen to get to homescreen. Oh well, I can live with it.

Does anyone know how to turn off the animations for SkyRaider 3.5?
Every time I unlock my phone, the clouds come swooping by etc. etc.. And then the clock does a little weird animation too that's kind of annoying.
I went to Menu>Settings>Display and I turned off all Animation. Still no luck.
Any ideas? - I've searched the forums and all these threads have just died, is it true no one knows how to fix this?
Remove and add the clock widget. When you add it, there should be an option for weather animations. Uncheck that box and you're good to go. The clock, however, has the flip animation built-in so that one won't turn off

Hmm.. I think that fixed it, when I added the fancy widget it was a different layout then what I had there before.. so I think this skin doesn't have any animations.
Do you know how to download a bunch of fancy widget skins? I've searched but havent really come across any easy methods.
Hi! I'm pretty new to the rooting world and this GW is my very first Android smartphone. I rooted my phone and currently using stock rom. I would like to know if there's any way to remove the huge clock on the lock screen without downloading any lockscreen app. Is it possible to customize it like hide it or change the font to an invisible one? The huge clock is blocking my lockscreen wallpaper and I hate it. All help shall be well appreciated. Thanks!

I think that is very unlikely to change w/o using third party app. U can try Go Locker. It can let u to disable the clock and date on the lock screen. Besides,
it provides quite a lot of customized theme too.
Use Go Locker is the best way for me
I think u cant do that thing
Thanks for all your suggestions. Is it possible to use the go locker while using the tw app? i like tw because i like the default look of gingerbread.
Im looking for a few features on my lockscreen that dont appear to be possible with stock att galaxy.
I would like to get more than 4 shortcut apps on the lockscreen.
I would also like an email widget and calendar widget, maybe something similar to the news widget for the jb lockscreen.
Possible?

Not without your own personal modding, or flashing something else that has it...
Widget Locker will let you place sliders, widgets, and shortcuts on your lockscreen. I've never tried it with a stock ROM, but see no reason it shouldn't work.
You can find it in the Play store.

Excellent 1st post... You get a thanks...
Yep, Widget Locker will do a lot of what you're looking for. One tip, go into your lock screen settings (in your phone settings, not in WL settings) and set it to none once you've activated WL. This will keep the odd times when your stock lock screen might appear after unlocking via WL.
So basically, I really wanted to install DashClock Widget. However it only works on android 4.2..... anyone know an app like that?
I like how it displays the sms count, task, weather. its super clean looking. Looking for some suggestions.
2 possible contenders
WidgetLocker and GO Locker
They'll get the job done, as long as you have the ability to remove the stock lockscreen. My Exchange account prevents me from disabling the stock lockscreen, so if I wanted to use these i would have a double lockscreen. Which would be the only thing worse than a single lockscreen.

I think he is looking for a Dashclock for 4.1.2, not a lockscreen.
I too would like to find something like this. One More Clock Widget has some of the features and having some very clean options.
Check out "cLock Weather Widget UCCW skin"

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.
