[Q] AOSP Lockscreen - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
My past daily phone was a Nexus 5 so I kinda miss the simple and smooth things it came with, like the AOSP lock screen.
I know that if you rename/delete the lock screen APK on some phones, you get the original AOSP lock screen. Does anyone know if doing this on the LG G3 will get me an AOSP lock screen too?
Thanks!
P.S.: If not, is there any other way to get it working?

Droid lock screen for htc evo

Does anyone know how I can change the evo lock screen to the android lock screen like on the droid. It just looks so much better. That would be cool
Wrong forum.
Check under "Themes and Apps" for stuff like that.

No problem. - The original Sprint boot animation is so ugly I just can't believe they'd hire someone to make that stuff happen at Sprint.
Here's another link on how to apply a boot animation:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=697527
I think he was asking about the lock screen, not boot animations...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesnt the droid use the stock lock screen? If so, this is a theme in damagecontrol
I juss don't like the stock lock screen for the evo.i like the android lock screen better
Is there a way where I can still change my htc sense lockscreen to the droid lockscreen without rooting?
It was late last night. He DID ask about the lock screen.

doubtful, you need to be able to remove the htc lock screen apk i believe.
Well do I have to root my phone in order to run the boot animation?
I don't want to root my phone yet that's why, but maybe if I just do what you said
I think so, because to modify the boot animation files you have to have access to rw system
there is an app in the market to change your lock screen.i think is lockbot or something like that.

Yeah, he asked for the DroidX lock screen, not lockbot or anything else.
{does anyone know how I can change the evo lock screen to the android lock screen like on the droid}
LOCKBOT IS AN APP TO CHANGE YOUR LOCK SCREEN, you can change it to look like the one on the droid, you can chage it so it looks like the , iPHONE,ECLAIR,Froyo,x10, and galaxy, i think this would do what you want!!
ps. to the one that posted above me, are you forealz, do you even know what lockbot is???
Ok cool, then I guess I'll lockbot thanx guys

[Question/Idea] Contact Information on the HTC Lock Screen.

I've been trying to find a legitimate way to add my information on the lock screen just in case I misplace my phone. I cant seem to find an app that will work with the htc lock screen and was wondering if anybody has stumbled upon a way to do this.
So far the closest thing I've been able to come up with is editing my banner from "Sprint" to my name.
Any ideas? Has anybody stumbled upon this when modding the lock screen?
btw i really really like the clear lockscreen and rosie mod by kon. great job!
You could make a custom wallpaper with your contact info for your lock screen and apply that. That would accomplish what you are trying to do I think.
You can find directions in this thread:

Seems like a good compromise for the vanilla lock.
I wonder if there's a way to do this with the htc lock screen. Only reason I like it is because of how it incorporates notifications.

[Q] Circular Unlock Screen

Hi All,
I was reading an article today, and in it noticed an image of a circular unlock screen which allows you to access messages and call logs directly from the lock screen. The image I'm referring to can be found here;

Does anybody know how to use/install this on the Galaxy Nexus?
Regards,
Use this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1388728
Thanks for the quick reply. So is there no other way to achieve this than to flash a custom rom?
Not at present as it's a custom lock screen
You can do that with WidgetLocker. Don't believe all of the trash saying you need a custom ROM.

+1 to this
ive been using this rom for 4 days now, had the phone for 5 and eagle blood is defintaley promising

Locker Widgets or Themes
Would either the GO Locker or the Widget Locker allow a different lock screen when one is on Exchange and only the pin lock screen is allowed?
It would be nice to have an unlock method that is secure but yet something that can be down will no looking at the screen .....driving.

He's right except for one small detail
Widget Locker and Go Locker are trash compared to the stock lock screen because they don't function as cleanly and as perfectly as the stock lock screen.
So yeah, don't believe all that trash saying you need a custom ROM /s
except for the part where the custom lock screen in that ROM is 100x better and smoother than widget locker and go locker which suffer from that horrible 5 second lock problem.

Enable root helper in WidgetLocker. Bam. No delay. Complete customization. WL is buttery smooth for me.
RootzBoat v6.1 rom has functionality built in. I'm not sure if its a custom lockscreen or just something the modded in themselves.
But it's cool.

[Q] AOSP Lockscreen?

Is there an .apk out there to give the G3 a more AOSP style lockscreen?
I will use knock code while traveling or while @ client sites, but during my personal time am really missing the simple lock key slide.
You can actually see one on the stock G3 lockscreen when you long press the lockscreen widget. So far Tweaksbox, Gravity, etc. modules do not really provide the same lockscreen mechanism (at least my experience has been this).
I have also seen several play store options but none of them seem to really emulate the simple experience of the lock key slide.

Last I knew a true AOSP Lockscreen was going to be hard to do. See this on Reddit
http://www.reddit.com/r/lgg2/comments/23h88t/aosp_lockscreen_on_442/
It's regarding the same issue on a G2 running 4.4.2 which I'd imagine would be the same case with our G3s.
I'm with you though I'd like to have that Lockscreen back but not sure we'll get it on stock.

Custom Lock Screen that Draws over the Stock one

Does ANYONE here know of any lock screens or methods to use custom Lock Screens that can draw(display over) The stock Samsung one? A few phones ago I used Floatify and the AVA lock screen. Made my notification at a glance life better! the newest notifications arrived. on. top! WOW. not at the bottom like some do now..................
So! Is there anyone who knows of one that can do this? Without disabling the stock lock screen and being unable to use fingerprint etc.
Try good lock. The app notistar within it might be close to what you are looking for
