Maybe an odd question.
Is it possible to have the slide to unlock screen available if you use a patter to unlock the screen?
I know if you use a pin the slide to unlock still shows.

Not on an aosp rom, no. On a sense rom you can. Just remove the htclockscreen.apk, and you'll be left with the vanilla unlock screen. If you have a pattern enabled, it still comes up after unlocking the slider. (Again, only on a sense rom)

I agree. I like having the lockscreen and pattern unlock. That way I can use music controls on the lockscreen, and still keep my phone locked with the pattern.

I'll see if I can't get it added as a feature request for CM.
Try widget locker. Any widget you can add to the regular home screen can be added to the lock screen, including music controls, etc.
I have mine set up such that all the apps I normally use are available from the lockscreen. This way, don't have to multiple tap to get to them.
Don't mind the duplicate calculators..

Does that cause any lag? When I tried widget locker a long time ago, it lagged. My phone on wake up.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
The only lag I notice is when booting, and possibly the first wakeup after sleep after a reboot. There after, it seems to wake up relatively fast (1/2 second?) Is it an instant wake, no, but I can live with waiting a split moment to have the functionality of not having swipe then tap, or swipe then tap twice to get to something.
Like you, I tried it some months back and thought it was a piece of garbage. I was reluctant to try it again, but got spoiled with CM7's multiple sliders on the lock screen. Having returned back to sense for other reasons, I missed that functionality.

There is already a feature request for this in CM. look here:

Thanks for the response. I may consider giving it another try.
If you plan on using this with cm7, keep in mind, actual widgets on the lock screen only work with the standard system theme. With other themes, the widgets disappear after a reboot.

It's stupid little bugs like this that annoy the crap out of me. So much for final I can't stand the green, so I just have shortcuts on the lock screen. In fact, I could almost tolerate the green, but it changes the theme of the status bar pull down widget to a light grey instead of a more black.

Yea, I saw that yesterday.
Hi I love the new "slide" lock screen. I love sliding the round "thingy" to unlock the screen or to get to the camera. I used to use the locker widget on my sgs2 but I want to stick to stock android as much as possible and getting rid of all those "addons" is a joy ;-) now the only thing that bothers me is that I can't lock my lock screen with the "slide" lock screen and put a pin in case I loose my galaxy nexus...(I know that sound cheesy) Can someone give me a hint? I do not want to use an extra plugin for this simple feature to work...
Cheers,
Silentbob

Yes that's exactly what I would like... is it possible?

If you use an app like WidgetLocker you can set it up so that widget locker is your main lockscreen and you can make it look exactly like the stock lockscreen. Then if you enable pin unlock you can make it request for a pin after you unlock with widgetlocker

I'm confused here. Blur did this on my DX and it drove me crazy because no functionality from the slide lock screen other than vibrate adjustment. Does the OP want to have the slide lock on top so that it's possible to use the slide lock features on ICS? I would imagine with that a pin lock below, those features would still require pin lock entry. Perhaps I'm confused with the work flow that the OP wants.

Yup, this works perfectly.
Its dumb to have to slide to unlock only to get to the code screen.

Thank u for the time you have taken to write this help full comment.
Hi to all and thanks for your feedback. I think there is some need to better explain the reason I would like to use the swipe to unlock feature and at the same time have a pin lock.
I need a quick way to access to my camera app from the lock screen. I take a ton of images this way and I love the feature of the iPhone where you can take images from the lock screen very quickly but u need a pin to enter to the springboard. I hoped that this would be possible with stock android. As I asked in my first post I don't want to install the Lockscreenwidget. It has way to many options and some times it does not work. So now I hope that my intent is better understandable.
Thank you very much

I figured that's what you meant. Yeah, it would be a nice feature if you snap a photo or adjust the volume without entering the homescreen. Alas, to my knowledge, that functionality doesn't exist with a PIN. It's the app market for you my friend, and maybe Seekdroid in case you lose your phone and want to wipe it (assuming you are paranoid about security).

Btw I am using the lock screen widget... it is not what I wanted but it gets the work done
My lock screen...
Got a new G3, the F460 with Snapdragon 805, guess straight from Korea (bought on Swappa). Minor annoyance, the lock screen shows double clock - "Local" and "Home" time, where "home" is, I guess, Seoul Korea. How do I get rid of this "Home" time there or change its time zone to elsewhere? There is nothing on it in lock screen options, time zone settings in system settings also don't affect this, nothing in "Clock" application settings... Any ideas?
I was wondering this too.

Remove the widget by long pressing it on locked screen, then you can replace it with whatever you want.
Doesn't work with that particular widget.

Right, as the user just above me wrote, it does not work. You can press it as long as you want - eventually the lock screen will timeout and go dark, but you can't remove or edit this widget in any way. Any other ideas?

In lockscreen settings option that says show lockscreen widgets or something like that has to be enabled.

Nope... it is enabled, but still can't remove or change the clock settings in any way. So seemingly simple problem and yet so difficult to solve!

Ok, try this way:
- screen is locked but it's on
- touch and hold the widget and try to pull it down like notification bar
- widget should become bigger and editable
- touch and hold the widget (now you should be able to remove it)
See my video

Thank you for trying to help, Czechu! Dzięki! Unfortunately it still does not work. I can swipe the lock screen from the left edge, and _only_then_ I get a page and widget you show on your video. However, the screen that comes up first upon turning on is different, has two digital clocks that cannot be modified in any way, cannot be swiped down - nothing...

Heh, trudno.... I'm out of ideas then. Seems like the Korean variant is a bit different than euro. Hopefully someone will have a solution for that. Maybe try some 3rd party lockscreena for the time being?

Maybe it was not supposed to go out of Korea, so home would be in Seoul forever. Thank you again!

Try to download an app called Dual Clock Remover. i had the same problem too. But after downloading this app it worked(^-^)v

This guy demonstrate that how to disable roaming clock through settings which is hidden. In order to access those settings, you need to download a free app named "Quick Shortcut Maker" from playstore. I just follow his steps and i just feel happy. 100% working.
Hi
I use nova launcher prime and am used to a shortcut on my screen to quickly lock the screen instead of using the hardware button to lock the screen. However since I have moved over to p2.. After I press the lock screen shortcut from nova the screen for goes black but the screen isn't locked... It is not till 10 secs later when the screen actually locks
I hate this feature as it stops me from putting the phone into my pocket instantly after locking. How to fix this? I have set up power button to instantly lock the phone after sleep.
It's not P2s problem it's Android's security feature. You'll need root access to instantly lock screen
But from quicktiles there is an icon to do it

Thanks yes i came across that as well... However it is really a total failure on Android part to not have anything built in to allow people to instantly lock... Isn't there any way to put a shortcut to the system icon on my desktop? In stock launcher or otherwise?
Unfortunately looks like Android is going the way of Apple with these silly restrictions becoming more n more common
Well it's a security feature which means they've probably found something wrong with putting a quick lock from 3rd party apps.
Use "Wide touch" found under Setting->Feature. You can assign multiple gesture into it.

Hi guys, i just got my pixel 2 today. I don't like to use the power button as much as possible when turning the screen off. I'm wondering if you there is an app for screen off which is compatible with the fingerprint unlock. I've tried several on the playstore but when i unlock the device it asks for my pin rather than going straight to the home screen.

If your rooted you can use a Nova launcher gesture. I also use this app to lock the screen and boot into whatever :good:
