Lock Screen Idea - Straight to Camera with pattern?

I like the idea that the lock screen can take you straight to the camera. But with the standard slide to unlock, I found my phone unlocks in my pocket and calls people.
So, how about being able to set two (or more!) lock patterns - one to take you home, another straight into the camera?

With AOKP, you can do up to 8 different things on the lockscreen (straight to camera, straight to SMS, etc.). Try that out.

Wait...what? How does it unlock in your pocket? The screen isn't nearly sensitive enough to pick up touches on your leg through the pocket lining (unless you're wearing dress pants), but even if it were it doesn't pick up large touches in that way. It shouldn't be able to unlock at all...unless maybe you're leaving open an app that has a Menu button, since that still displays on the lock screen and pressing it once will unlock the phone.
Like the other guy said, check out AOKP. I think there might be a way to set up the combination lock like that.

They should have a little toggle. Something which you tap before entering your unlock pattern, and then it will take you straight to the camera. Something like this:
{
"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"
}

A small toggle on the lockscreen with the pattern would be awesome. Something similar to what Moto's done on their lockscreen with the RAZR

Unless I'm missing something in AOKP, I think you're referring to the regular unlock method, not the pattern unlock. The OP is curious about having two different patterns with two different launch results.

+1 this is a good idea

Lock screen rotation bug

My wife and I both have a GN2. Mine is running MyRom and she is completely stock (no root or anything).
She has a problem with the lock screen. Sometimes it will try to display in horizontal mode when the phone is being held in portrait orientation. This causes the lock screen pattern to be cut off.
I have never had this happen on my phone but she had to get her phone replaced (different reason) and it did it on both phones. She has to restart her phone to be able to unlock it.
I tried to mock up what it is doing but my artistic skill is lacking...
{
"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_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Any suggestions?

I wish I could screen shot because I've experienced the same. But I still just swipe up to unlock and it works just fine. You know how on nexus services the jelly bean clock where the hours and minutes are a different font abs one is bold over another is a description of how the display looks

Check her rotation settings, smart rotation and all. Im sure u already did that and it made no difference but its always the first thing to do.
From my experience whenever thst happens its because of excessive background apps are open killing the processor. Does she kill apps at all? Restarts the phone from time to time? Tell her to kill apps instead of backing out, hold the home button and the right buttin should kill the background apps and thr left bitton will take u to the ram and frees that up by clicking another button.
You can also download advanced mobile care on the phones and it has an option to kill apps when the screen wakes up, slight delay before input, bit it kills background and app processes. Good luck and report bavk

Palm Rejection in SketchBook for Galaxy

Hello, is it possible to activate Palm Rejection in this App?

Yep!
Settings )the gear icon in the ep, second top left) --> Pen Mode --> ON.

Yes, but it doesn't work. Your palm still activates zoom-in and zoom-out as you rest it down on the screen. The best solution I've found is make sure the pen is the first thing to touch the screen, then rest your palm down.

Because that's not what palm rejection is designed to do.
It prevents you from drawing on the screen with your hands. That, and only that.
Multitouch and Controls, including zoom, are not part of that.
It clearly says so in the menu.

Even if you put your hand on it first, as soon as the pen gets near to the screen, touch will be deactivated anyway.

Root get gmd spen control. There is a gesture to shut off all touch recignition besides the pen.

When I double tap the screen it gets on but it also quickly gets off even before face unlocking the screen.

Try using the Double Tap app. You can adjust it's tap parameters. 2x tap on/off.
Runs flawlessly on Pie and Q.

Why? Double Tap needs no internet connection, freeware, uses almost zero battery... a perfect app. I use in in preference to my Samsung double tap option because it works better.

It's not the matter of resources, I generally prefer to use built-in options because they will be better optimised, trusted. The problem might be in proximity sensor because while making a call it automatically turns-off the screen. Intially I thought screen on sensor might be dirty but after cleaning the results are same.

I use whatever comes in handy.
You can firewall block this app if you want but it doesn't matter, in over a year it's never tried to access the internet. It doesn't even use enough battery to register usage. I don't have a screen lock so no permissions are needed, otherwise it needs to run as a System Administrator.

Question question about the interface and buttons

one way to access split screen mode is using 3 finger gesture swipe, is there another way?
with my s7 edge there was the split screen icon in the app switcher (tree lines)
second question, what is the T lock / unlock symbol in the top right corner of the app switcher? what does it do?
third question, anyway to increase the loud speaker volume? is it just the media volume setting?

This is the unknown lock/unlock symbol I'm referring to. What does it do? I pressed it and didn't notice anything different

I think the lock symbol is supposed to keep the process running in the background. I could (and probably am) wrong, but I thought I read that somewhere. And it only seemed to work for a short time.

1. Yes, the 3 finger gesture swipe is one way, I also believe you can assign the smart key button (left side) to start split screen as well, I think you can either do press, double press, or hold
2. If you swipe down on the app while in app switcher, it keeps process open in background, and won't be closed if you click "clear memory"
3. Just increase it as much as you can. This phone does have a weaker loudspeaker, especially with only one on the bottom
