For me no problem...
I have 2 seconds of delay on wake up only in a CM based rom.. But it is CM bug.. Is not related the app.. The app working perfectly and without delay on Sony stock firmware..

I use this: invisible lock
with Sony Lockscreen: sometimes work and sometimes doesnt. I would say 80% chance of it working.
with Widget Locker: works 100%.

I've tried all the apps found in the app store, and all of them , sometimes like 15% of locking actions leave the screen black with backlight on, or the lockscreen just pops up.
I'm using tasker with a simple profile made by me, and it works 100%, I've putted the shortcut of the profile on the desktop with an invisibile picture .

Sure. The task is like this :
1 Keyguard
Set Off
2 System Lock
3.Keyguard

I've created like I said a desktop shortcut to this task , with an invisible icon and when I press it it works 100% of the times.

Just 4 lock screen patterns/themes for now, surely more will be coming in future. Those four lock screens are damn smooth. Also a Custom Wallpaper isn't supported yet, as well as Date Format is fixed at MM/DD for now, other than those its great.
Using the Sense LS for now.

Yeah you are right.
Anyway, thanks for the information. It seems to be a nice app.
Very nice app but it would be great if the app allows more customisation just like jkay.

Light flow issues

I simply can't get this thing to work consistently..
It will only work if i open the Light flow app and go to notifications, then I can press home button and go back to my home screen but as long as the light flow app is still in the 'multi task' it will work, once I'll swipe it from there it stops working.
Also - when I check for 'Light flow' in the 'running services' under 'apps', it is still there, even after I've swiped it from the multi task , saying '1 process and 1 service', but it will not work unless I open the app itself and go into notifications...
Info -
It only started after the JB update..
I am not running any task managers etc..
I am rooted, stock 4.1.1 JB
I tested it with Gmail, charging etc..
This really sucks.. Am I the only one??....
Since the update that was meant to fix Jelly Bean issues, I've had no issues. Its working well for me.

I'm also running the version with the fix, 3.0.4 lite, reinstalled, rebooted, set in settings, nothing..

That sucks.. I'll try sending a message to the devs
Got a responce from the dev:
"Hi
At the moment for some reason in jelly bean swiping away the app causes the app to stop working. It'll show in the services as android restarts it on the crash, but it's lost its state until you re-enter the app to initialise it.
I'm looking into a fix for that.
I've sent a simple test case over to one of the top android framework*designers as they picked up on a post I placed into their support forums about it.*

So, patience it is..

I have found setting up light flow then restarting the phone keeps it working. As long as you don't open the app again it works fine.

Me too. Will take time to get used to it.
An example is the sony stock launcher for example. You have to press menu button to get that little wallpaper widget thing to come up. well you can hold down also. But I have no empty spot on my home screen lol so I got used to menu button. SO I keep going down to the regular button lol.

I know. This is not a regular menu that pop up like say a go launcher. I use Ez Launcher and the Soft menu button is visible on the right.
I might try out a new launcher. I do enjoy Sony's though. My phone has been kinda slow recently opening things like messaging up and no idea why. I think it is just the Sony stuff that is slow

[GUIDE] Use Volume Key For Flashlight with Screen Off

How to activate the flashlight on the lock screen.
1. You will need to install either Nova or Apex launcher. You don't need to keep this as your launcher in the future, but just to activate this trick.
2. Once running, press & hold an empty spot on your home screen. You will get this window, and choose 'shortcuts'
{
"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"
}
3. Then select activities.
4. Once this loads (can take a bit if you have many things installed), select settings.
5. Now scroll down to Torch light and select either of the two.
6. It will now add the shortcut to your home screen. Tap on this icon.
7. Check the torch light option and then the time-out amount.
You can now switch back to the launcher of your choice and have the working flashlight. Just hold the power up for a short time and it will come on or tap to volume down to turn off.
Enjoy!

Nope.Does not work on stock Rom, rooted.
I don't know about the above method, but I am using "Tiny Flashlight" and that provides an option to toggle the light on the lock screen by shaking the phone. Works well enough for me.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Not sure why you guys are having problems with it, but Nottach also got it running & will include it in his next update (allowing you to map it to your home button instead of you prefer). So if you are running Xposed with his mod should be easier to setup/work.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Nottach Xposed v10 now available and includes trick for torch. Can set to home button too if you prefer over volume up.
Using the Nova Launcher and followed the steps...
Tried with each of the types and still no joy.
Every time I manually press the volume up and power there is no flashlight, just the 4 way power menu...
When ever I press and hold the icon itself, it gives the settings for the touch light menu to enable the touch light and with the time amount.
I have seen this short cut work with the AnyShortCut app...... maybe there was a step that was overlooked?
If someone figures this out, wonderful!

Try this, pull down notification bar. Select the one that says something about more info. It will take you to app settings, uncheck show notifications. Both P will go from top screen but if you quit the app and restart it, the next time only one P shows on top of phone. By the way, I am issuing an XDA Pandora apk version w unlimited skips.
