Yeah, I am! But I didn't find any lockscreen options... I'm probably just being an idiot.

I'm running Apex... but about to switch (no idea to what!) because he's never around and never updates.

It was GO Locker - got it fixed - thanks guys

If you are still on Apex and not happy, I highly suggest Nova and experiment with it.
As for the GO locker, expect to find it randomly change on you if you have more than 2 different locker themes downloaded. I had it before I rooted and it would randomly change the locker themes on me once or twice a week.
Irritating to say the least.

[Q] How to remove the transition effect from the homescreen

Hi, is there a way to remove the transition effect between the homescreen pages ? ( (the 3Dish transition)
To revert it to the one in the appdrawer which is just a flat transition between pages?
Phone is rooted.

Dont know what u mean nor what launcher u use but in settings under development there r 3 options u can configure to turn off animation.

Basically, the Note 2 on android 4.1.2 etc.. changed the transition between homescreen pages. A while ago it was a flat transition between those pages (like now in the app drawer section). But now it is a 3D effect which tilts the pages as you scroll between them.
It doesn't get removed from those options in the Developer Section that u mentioned (tried it).
Any other ideas?

Ok but still no info on the launcher and is that eom a stock rom or custom ?

Ah sorry.
Well, it is the rom that comes with the Note 2: Touchwiz upgraded to 4.1.2 And the launcher is the stock Touchwiz launcher.
It makes this 3D effect when transitioning between the different homescreen pages.
Whereas in the appdrawer, the transition is just a simple 2D horizontal page scroll.
I hate the 3D effect in the homescreen and want to replace it with the 2D one from the appdrawer.
The phone is rooted, and I'm thinking this has to do with:
system / framework / framework-res.apk / res / anim
But I don't know where or what to change.

Ok in that case u r stuck with that effect as it has no options. If u want it removed then use another launcher. Samgsung stock launcher comes without options so u r stuck with those effects unless u change the launcher or some dev has made a mod for that.

Yes exactly, that's what I want to know; If a dev has made a certain mod for it.
Or if anyone has identified which effect file is which; in that case I can just copy/rename it to replace it. (phone is rooted)

I think u r gonna have to ask a dev to make one if he/she wants to or have time to help u out as i think u r one of the few whom cares about that. I am on stock launcher to so i can use pagebuddy but i dont care about the animation at all i just need to take quick notes.

Custom ROM is the only way I'd imagine

Would you happen to know of a 4.3 custom ROM I'm on slim bean right now (latest version )

So you are wanting to make the lockscreen fully transparent?

Try Paranoid Android, I'm not sure if they have a 4.3 Version yet, but they usually have options like that.
Xenonhd also have some great customization options, but they are still on 4.2
You could also go to settings>security>screen lock and set it to none. This will basically make your device open to the home screen when you press the power button, skipping the lock screen entirely

That's funny, a lot of ROMs have the option to set a custom lock screen wallpaper. I'm pretty sure cyanogenmod does...

That's my lockscreen you can see the difference between the original and set as wallpaper

Didn't think it got my lockscreen pic lol
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Almost all custom ROMs have that option. And when you set a lockscreen wallpaper, it shouldnt have an overlay on top of that. Maybe its an issue with your ROM. I dont use that one.

I'm on Carbon ROM and I just tried a custom lockscreen wallpaper. The wallpaper was no darker than the original image. So, as I said, it may be your ROM.

Weather Animation?

I just noticed my lock screen never does the weather animation. Anyone else?

Very quick when it rained last week.

Figured it out. Gotta add widgets to lock screen. Added the clock and there it is
Sent from my LG-D851 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Works for me without adding widgets. I had the rain and thunderstorm animation show last night.

Same here.. haven't seen lock screen weather animation

Rain and thunderstorms are the only ones that work. Download the modded lock screen from the Zone Rom thread and they will all work.

Hmmm the only one I see is for de-oxed.. Do you know if they have Weather Animation Only for stock rooted?

I've had Beautiful Widgets for a while now. Installed it to my G3 recently and it works great. Night time has star lights.

Does it work on the lock screen - I thought it only worked on the launcher screens

I'll check it out tonight. The sunlight does not work on the lock screen.

It works for odex roms. Just replace the file and delete the odex file. I'm using it on stock odex as we speak.

PLEASE tell me how did you delete that clock widget? What happened after you deleted that widget? Were you forced to use another widget or do you just have the 5 shortcuts at the bottom of the Lock screen? I really want to have just the 5 shortcuts at the bottom of the Lock screen

When on the lock screen if you slide your finger down like you were going to pull the status bar down the clock widget should spin the whole screen...then is you hold down on it you should be able to remove it like you would an app of your home screen

I've just tried that mate..I moved the widget into the waste basket but it forces me to use another widget..
Could I have a look at your lock screen?

Remove every single widget on your lockscreen, until you see the screen + ONLY. Do not add anything, just press the back button and lock the screen then turn it back on again and you should see your circle widget!

Does anyone know how to get the stock lock screen clock back?!
