Samsung Galaxy S Lockscreen on HTC Desire? - Desire Themes and Apps

I was just wondering if there was any way to port the samsung galaxy s lockscreen to the HTC Desire?
It looks nice and clean and it's got a unique way of unlocking.
I love minimalistic themes and so on and I think this lock screen will just give my HTC Desire a bit more of that look.
I would do it myself if I could but I have no experience in programming and this kind of thing, because I'm quite young and new to the field.
Would appreciate it ever so much if someone could do this.
Thanks

Thank you works a charm

volume buttons locked too :/
Yeah... I really like the galaxy lockscreen too and lockbot really does the trick but lockbot also locks the volume buttons and the next/play/previous buttons on the headset.
I tried looking into the settings but found nothing that enables them when the screen is locked. So if I have missed the setting for them please tell me where that option is
And if someone else knows of another galaxy lockscreen app please post here!
Cheers!

Lock bot is good for a while then it gets annoying when it slows down and one can easily bypass the lock screen.

X10 Keyboard Scrolling Feature

Hey guys, I prefer the HTC IME over the stock 2.1 X10 keyboard anyday. But one thing that I wish the HTC IME had was the scrolling feature thats on the X10 keyboard.
Does anyone know if there is any other keyboard that has that feature. OR can anyone mod the HTC IME to have the scrolling feature ?
Thanks
Would love to know that too.

speaking of arrows, does anyone know if we can put the evo keyboard on the x10? Like is there a apk for that?

[Q] Lockscreen-Image on Froyo

Hi Guys,
my Girlfriend updated her Legend to 2.2 today but now is a little sad, because she is no longer able to change the Background-Image of the Lockscreen (the one you have to drag down...). On 2.1 she could use one Image for normal Wallpaper when in use and another for the "lockscreen", now on 2.2 if she changes the Wallpaper, the lockscreen-image is the same...
Is there any way to only change ONE of them as it was on 2.1??? Maybe any app or something??
Thanks for Help,
BigD
They changed that?!?!
Sadface...
What I'm more interested in is if we get the Desire's lock screen.
So far, it SEEMS we're stuckwith the collapsing effect of the original Sense.

I was also wondering what happened to this feature

Maybe you should have a look at Lockbot or Lockbot Pro. Also try widgetlocker. I havent tried any myself but they are best known for lockscreen customization. Good luck.
Also, do you now get the Desire style fading pulldown of the clock pull bar on the lockscren? Does it fade? Or does it just slide and collapse like Legend 2.1.

Widgetlocker

I just bought the widget locker app from the market...BEST 2 DOLLARS EVER SPENT!!! You would not believe the features this app has. Rotary lockscreen, iphone lockscreen, widgets and shortcuts on your lockscreen. And, my favorite part, NO HAPTIC FEEDBACK ON THE SLIDER!!! I would definitly recomend this app
*I attached a screenshot. The second shot has the iphone slider. Third is sense pull-down
I actually just got this app this weekend so im fairly new to it. How'd you get all those different sliders like rotary, iphone, and sense.
Open WidgetLocker settings then check under 'Look & Feel' > 'Sliders & Layout'.

Cool thanks!
I like the app but the couldn't get the security pattern to work with it. It was either a double lockscreen with a pattern, or no pattern at all. If they had that working I'd buy it again
Meh. Its ok. Not quite the best two bucks I ever spent. Its a little slow starting and doesn't actually replace the stock lock screen so much as cover over it. When u wake the phone u see a flash of the stock slider before widget locker takes over. Petty, but that annoys me. Using unlock patterns with it is also flakey. I do like the app, but in its current state its more the quality of a free app. Hopefully they continue to dev and provide some updates. If not, I don't figure ill be using it long.
That about sums it up. Neat app, needs work. If you have 2 bucks to spare, give it a try.

Hmmm, to bad. The settings are really touchy and you definitly dont have it right if your seeing the stock lockscreen when you wake the phone. To bad people put negative feedback out there when they dont even know how it works, see it all the time with apps in the market

I get same thing, the app can't open itself fast enough all the time to cover up the default lock screen. It is a cool app but not worth 2 dollars when there are so many apps out there that offer more for less.
No free app I know of let's you customize sliders and put widgets and shortcuts on the lock screen. You can bypass the 5 second transition from stock lock screen to widget locker in the settings.
Not meaning to sound negative. It is a cool app. I just expect a paid app to be a bit more refined. Less buggy, let's say. I will continue using and playing with it for a while.

If your seeing the stock lock screen your settings are wrong. I never see it and forget I'm even using an app

some reboots when unlocking, and sometimes the stock lock screen appears before widget locker. I have changed the settings both using root bypass and home helper. Both of those options alleviate the issue, but do not fix it entirely.

Request: Lockscreen Wallpaper App

Hi,
I would like to have a simple app that makes it possible to use a wallpaper of choice. I know i can use apps like WidgetLocker, but that's quite overkill when all i want is to use a different wallpaper then the one on my homescreen.
How difficult and time consuming would it be to make an app like this?

Thanks, but it's not what i'm looking for. I don't want a new lockscreen, i'm just interested in setting a lockscreen wallpaper without the bloat.

No, i'm not using password/gesture on my lockscreen. All i want is to use one wallpaper on the lockscreen, and one on my homescreen, like Smokeey says. That's all

(Dev of WidgetLocker)
I don't have an answer to your question. But I have technical information on why such an app doesn't exist and how it possibly could be done.
At the app level, rather than rom level, the only way I can think of to do this without replacing the lock screen, and with the wallpaper behind (rather than on top of) the lock screen, would be for the app to change the system wallpaper when the stock lock screen starts and to change it back on USER_PRESENT.
I don't know how fast a wallpaper change can be done and this might cause annoying visual effects during the change, especially since most of the time the user is unlocking to the Launcher, so the switch would have to happen on screen. It could be annoying if the switch didn't happen until after unlock, also annoying, but maybe less so, if it happened before the lock screen disappeared.
Many thanks for your reply! I have WidgetLocker, but not using it right now, but can you tell us if you plan to release an update with theming support in the near future?
Thanks in advance.
