I wish you could get rid of the lock screen, it's ugly and annoying and doesn't tell me battery life.

So I have been always having trouble when using a custom lock screen so I could wake the device with the trackball. All the lock screens I tried would either work for a little then just stop working all together. Or the lock screen wasn't secure (the screen could be bypassed with a simple button press). I recently started to use dxTop again and got reminded that it has its own custom lock screen, granted its a iPhone style lock screen. But the lock screen have been working with out issue, and no matter what you can not get it to close unless you unlock it. Also dxTop is a nice home replacement and runs smooth on the Nexus. Figure I would throw this out there for anyone else who has similar issues.
EDIT:
You can also just use the lock screen without using dxTop, just make sure its set to on and just use the launcher home.
dxtop suck if you want a new theme made by someone other than them. they dont support 3rd party themes anymore since the master baron was bought out. no more template. my gripe.. pity, they were my fave until then.
People have trouble staying on topic here. Lol.
I used lock 2.0 for a while but it was just too slow and didn't always override the old lock.
I'm waiting for something nice myself. I don't like the look of the stock lock.
Anyone using Home++, what d you guys think?
Run home + + and enjoyed it. I have now found flyscreen and so I have stopped while I test flyscreen out.
I've been using Flyscreen for a while now without problems. I have to unlock the normal screen and then Flyscreen when I first start the phone but that's tolerable.
I wish they'd add a widget for the standard music player.
is it me or is there no way to have the lockscreen and homescreen wallpaper different like you could on the hero???
I was wondering the same thing......I dont think there is way to do it in the stock rom....
that sucks they a stupid move on htc part i hope i the devs can restore this issue in the custom roms
i dont mind it looks sleek
I don't mind it. It looks visually better this way (the lock slides... the screen stays in place). With the Hero, the entire lock/background moved.
I just installed "No Lock" from the market which disables the lock screen completely. It's great on the EVO, because now I can use the volume buttons to turn on my phone and not have to slide an unlock screen to access anything. That power button is sometimes tricky to reach with this massive size phone .
I believe thus was done for live wallpaper as they now work in lockscreen and password screen.
I like the feature

Since we're on the subject of lockscreens, is there anyway I can customize the lockscreen? It would be pretty nice if I could add widgets or something useful on there.
let's hope this is the correct place to post this
I got the international galaxy S and I really hated the Samsung unlock screen
is it possible to replace it with the vanilla stock one ? and how ?
I use launcher pro so I don't mind losing touchwiz anyway
I'm running on a rooted device
and thank you
I am very curious about this too.
Would really like to have the stock unlock screen that also has the 'silent mode' option when you swipe from right to left instead.
seems like either nobody knows or nobody cared to try it
there are programs to change the lock screen , but nothing is like the real thing
Truth to be told you have 2 options.
1. Use samsungs lock screen, it has missed call/sms/blah notifications on it, and also music player controls.
2. Use pattern lock, it's the same as stock then.
I am using samsung's lock screen now , so that's not an alternative option XD
but I'd like to have the stock one .. love it >.<
and pattern lock .. it's awful trying to unlock it while driving [tried it XD]
as far as i know, widgetlocker lets you unlock your screen with vanilla sliders!

It has other features like widgets on your lock screen, sounds like a promising app, you should try it out and see if it fits your needs!
widget locker is great. try it

I tried it , but what bothered me is that you can't lift the unlock slider upward (the real one is kinda higher) and what was more annoying is you can edit the widgets from the lock screen , meaning you just by mistake keep on holding a widget and it moves
again , here I don't just want the look , I actually wanted to see if it's possible to change the apk , switch it from the touchwiz to the real stock apk file (if it exists)
You can switch from the Widget Locker unlock slider to the standard Android one in the settings, but you lose a line of widget/shortcut space. You can also make the unlock slider the Sense or iPhone one if that's your thing. You can also disable editing widgets while locked.
Widget Locker is worth the purchase really, it's cheap and does what you want.
Are the lock screens the same on these ROMS or is liberates using a lock screen like the default Aria ROM?
im on CM now
Also, anyone try the cheap and dirty rom?
liberated is same as sense (stock) because it is still sense
hmmm.... love the CM lock screen, but miss a few of the HTC widgets, was hoping Liberated had the same lock screen as CM 6.0.2.1, any screen shots of the lock screen of the liberated ROM? Have only found home screen shots so far.
Not my screen, just did a google image search cause I know what it looks like.

Cheap and Dirty is an "underdeveloped" CM6. ATTN1 stopped working on Cheap and Dirty and started working CM6 for Aria.
I am running MCCM's froyo/Sense SD build. When switching between home screens I get this slight bounce effect (left to right). I wanted to know if it is possible to get rid of this. I have tried to turn off all animation and use 3rd party apps like spareparts but nothing seems to work.
I really just want a fast smooth transition, I don't care for animations. Thanks for any help!
Anyone have any thoughts? I have tried searching but cannot come up with anything
i'm looking for a fix too.
what i found is that it's possible to change the transition effect : http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-x-hacks/100725-how-mod-custom-transition-animations.html
but what we need to do is to find the stock android transition effect, the fade and slide one.
