Please help us improve our lock screen replacement app - Design, Prototyping, UI, Graphics

Hi there,
We've been developing an android lock screen replacement for some time now and we're now in the stage where we want to get feedback from our users.
I cannot include de download link but if you search on Google Play for "next news lock screen" you'll find it (the logo is a colourful letter "n").
Basically we want to find out:
- how easy it is to activate the lock screen? (from the install until the functional lock screen)
- what are the things that you like?
- what are the things that you think we can improve in order to have a smoother on-boarding?
!!! Please read carefully !!!
We don't want reviews, 5-stars, keep-the-app-for-a-week-and-then-uninstall-it kind of thingie, we just want honest user/technical feedback regarding the app (on-boarding and general use).
We offer the same in return for your app!
Thanks a lot!

[REQ] Interactive Mario lockscreen (like the Throttle Launcher one)

was searching for a cooler lock screen and came across this skin for throttlelock **cannot post link cuz im a new mbr.... but w w w throttlelauncher . com /portal/component/option,com_sobi2/Itemid,99/catid,6/sobi2Id,528/sobi2Task,sobi2Details/
i was wondering if it was even possible to make an actually mario game with the level exactly like the one in picture and u actually have to get lets say 3 mushrooms to unlock the screen? i know battery life whatever this is wayy worth it. and also add the bad guys for difficulty. just incase some children under.....5? years old get ahold of ur fone??
[Mod edit: changed title]
Firstly, please be sure that the title of the thread actually describes the thread. Also, please try to use proper English such that non-English speakers can easily put it through an online translator.
Secondly, I don't think this would be very popular, as the whole point of a lockscreen is to prevent accidental (or malicious) access to the phone, while still enabling the owner to quickly get past it.
And finally,

[Q] HTC Desire HD

Hi guys
Can someone suggest me to change my bootup screen on my htc phone. as its currently display my service provider image which i dont like.
Use the search. Function :/
If your rooted and Eng s-off you can change the splash screen there is a thread already on the topic
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I've wrote a few guides for people on this... add my user name to your search criteria
I've written a guide along with the startup & shutdown animations I've made from the Android Commercials. Search for the startup & shutdown animations Android Commercials. The guide goes even so far as to give you the details on how to rip pretty much almost any move/video file and make your use it as your animation for startup or shutdown. I've also included the info for how to change the "spash screen". Lastly I believe this is a first... I've worked out how to enable and use shutdown sounds. I'm a bit busy with some modding but I'll update that thread with the info and the shutdown animation with sounds in a couple of days.

please dont ask questions in themes and apps, Q&A And general are the only places you should post questions of any kind. as for your request, its the splash screen you wish to change not the boot animation

[Q] Disable auto correct but leave word suggestions?

Hi ya lads and gals
I'd appreciate some help with adjusting the auto correct features on the HTC One M8 - I'd like to disable the automatic replacement of words as you type - but I'd like to leave the list of word suggestions or spell check suggestions as you tap an underlined word.
I don't know if this is a Sense 6 specific option, but you can either have both - suggestions and auto correct - or none at all. You have only one check box and you can't go deeper into the options (Sense 3.6 had more options).
i.e.: edit: sorry, can't post links yet - you can view this screen cap i.imgur.com/XIxn8mr.jpg?1
However on both Sony SP (4.3) and Sony Z1 (4.4) you can tap on word suggestions to get more options, including disabling automatic replacement of words. This however leaves the suggestion list and underlines misspelled words (but otherwise leaves them alone). Which leads me to believe this option might be available on stock android and just hidden in the Sense UI.
i.e.: edit: sorry, can't post links yet - you can view this screen cap at i.imgur.com/VPkl3k1.jpg?1
I often write bilingual messages and use various abbreviations and/or slang and adding these to the dictionary while fast typing is not an option in the long run .
I'd appreciate your insight into this, thanks in advance :fingers-crossed:
PS - my phone's not rooted.
Get Swiftkey https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey.
I have paid for it twice, for phone and tablet, but now its free.
Thanks for the suggestion NikosPx, but I wanna work on the stock app (I'm crazy that way ).
Ok so I did some more checking and I found that Android 4.4.3 on the Nexus 4 also has separate options for suggestions and auto correct: i.imgur.com/QTsTVrs.jpg?1 - makes me wonder why HTC would choose to hide these options in the new Sense UI
Anywho, asked HTC on Twitter, but I fear I'm not popular enough to warrant an answer, sigh

Wonder if the GPE M8 has these settings...
Having the same problem..i realise this is an old post but like you i am also crazy enough to not want any additional keyboard softwares on my mobile.
just wondering if you have found a solution to your problem in stock setttings..
Htc m8 4.4.4 not rooted and sense 6.0
Hey, sorry but no luck. I've eventually given in and switched to swiftkey keeping my hopes up for the lollipop update though.

Adding widgets to home screen on Eonon GA2114?

Hi guys
Just received this head unit today and it's my first android device for a few years - spent the evening installing it and I love it already - it's a huge leap from stuff I've had in the past.
One thing I can't see how to do though is how to add/change widgets on the main home screen on this version of android/this head unit.
I'm sure on previous android devices I've had it's been a case of doing a long press maybe on blank space on the screen, but this doesn't do anything. I found a screen panel which has some widgets that can be added to additional screens, but not the main one, and it doesn't include the items currently present, not things like app shortcuts etc etc.
This is probably a stupid/easy question sorry but I can't find out on this device how I change these, so if someone could assist I'd be really grateful, thanks!

Hi
I moved your thread to Q&A-Section.
Would you please tell us which ROM you are using? Or are you still on stock?
Sorry, my bad. Thanks for moving it!
It's still the stock rom. Does it say the details for that in settings where it has the other details such as model/processor etc?
Thanks!
Anyone?
Thanks if anyone can help
You'll need to use a different launcher. The default ones (next, etc) do not allow much/any modification
Thanks for the tip Brendo - didn't realise that's what it came down to.
I'll have a look into alternatives, but are there certain ones that are favoured for head units as opposed to ones that might be favourites on phones for different reasons etc?
Cheers!
Jim
Right - after some searching and reading I'm gonna change the launcher to Nova as it looks great and very flexible.
Also going to stick poweramp in it I think as a better quality music player.

Lock Screen Crashed?

Hello everyone,
I am new with Zenfone 2 and I was eager to explore the phone and so I stumble upon the case where my phone lock screen menu is disable after I install some 3rd party app. (I screenshot the problem but I don't know howto attach it in this thread. I'm so sorry. I'm new to this kind if forum)
I don't know how to enable it back and I am really hoping that 'factory reset' is the last thing to do...
Thank you...
P/S: If you want to see the screenshot, please teach me how to post it in here... Thank you very much.
