[Q] Replacing Lockscreen - Legend General

Hi!
I was wondering if there is any way i can replace my lockscreen?
i am not interested in downloading apps from market to use as replacement since i already tried it and i think it sucks since it places itself over the normal lockscreen.
Shouldn't it be possible to get a new lockscreen onto my legend using the ordinary "flashing-method" ? (installing a .zip-file i mean)
The lockscreen i want is the froyo or similar.
Thx

Thx for the answer,
Well i don't have any problems with my clock and this link made no sense for me since i want to replace the sense lock screen from android 2.1 to the froyo lock screen

look for vanilla lockscreen.. (froyo lockscreen if you prefere.. )
The page i had provided is about clock fix after installing vanilla lockscreen

Is there any possibility to make this happen? i don't like the stock pattern-unlocker.

Nah, that's too much iPhoney
Ah great, Lockbot Pro does the job perfectly!
I use widget locker - not only does it have android/sense style lock it also lets you add widgets to the lockscreen

This is nice. Thank you for the info.
Tried the free version. It is thousand times better than the stock in SGS. Looks right, feel right, sounds right!
Edit: noticed that a soft reset disable it and I need to rerun lock 2.0. Is this the same for the paid version?
how hard would it be to make a update.zip to change the lock screen? and would it be possible to make an eclair like lockscreen with the touchwiz 3 music widget?
THAT be awsome

Thanks for this, loving my new widget locker.
It seems that Lock 2.0 is sometimes "killed" by the OS, and that means the lock that screen reverts back to stock. Is there a way to prevent that from being undone?
Sorry for just pushing this up, but im still looking for the stock lockscreen, maybe someone has found a way to use it already

Stock Android lockscreen?

For some reason, Samsung always seems to have to put its own stamp on everything.
While I don't dislike the Samsung Epic unlock slider, I like the stock Android one (with both an unlock and volume slider) better.
Is it possible to get rid of the Sammy lockscreen and use the standard Android lock on the Epic?

Almost ALL of the available ROM threads have a flashable zip on their page to replace the lockscreen with the vanilla one.
There is an apparently calls widget locker which u can put the original lock the iPhone lock sense lock or create your own custom 6+ option lock pretty cool once installed u can also use stock android home and disable the touchwiz taskbar on bottom

Everything I've seen says the widget locker lockscreen causes all kind of problems...

The only ROM I found with a flashable vanilla lockscreen was Epic Experience, and flashing the vanilla lock zip had no effect.

I use widget locker and it doesn't give me any problems. It can be a bit slow sometimes and occasionally the stock lock screen shows up but overall it's pretty good. I would recommend it, it's just $2.

Yes, but I think the problem is that I'm not on a de-odexed ROM (I'm on stock rooted ROM w/Clockwork)

You've probably hit the nail on the head there. My next question was going to be what ROM you were using... I never tried it on a odexed ROM, wasn't sure it would work on one.

Yeah I found some evidence in other threads that flashing the AOSP lockscreen mod on the stock ROM will not work (because it's not de-odexed). There is a de-odexed version of the stock ROM on the Wiki, I may try that since I'm happy with the stock ROM otherwise.
Thanks for all your help.

about lock screen...

I have seen some pic of the HTC lock screen have unlock and silence option..
like the picture below..
is this only work on root phone? or can download from market or install by ourself??
That is standard Froyo lockscreen.
You can try to put it with lockscreen replacement apps (like lockbot)

Correction, that is standard Android's lockscreen. The swiping up/down lockscreen is Sense.

ahh ok thx so i can just go and download lockbot to replace that?? no need to root or anything?
Yes, no need for root access, just install them like a normal app.
Some other lockscreen replacements are lock 2.0 or Simply lockscreen
Bear in mind that it doesn't actually replace your lockscreen. It just gets in the lockscreens' way. It's very clever, and worth a look into. Just bear in mind that it doesn't always work

HTC Flip Clock Weather Widget

Hi ok im not the brainest when it comes to my Hero. I have it rooted and im running Android 2.2 with Sense rom at the moment. Think its fantastic.
I love the Sense Weather flip clock widget, the main reason i like using sense, but is there any way to get a clear backgroung, or change the colour of the clock.
Thanks Steve
As far as I know you can't really modify Sense widgets and I doubt that will be looked in to anytime soon since most devs are trying to get a complete Sense Froyo. When that happens maybe they might look in to your question.

Its possible that I am completely off-base here, but AFAIK you can't re-sign sense .apk's correctly in a way that will work. So I don't believe you can make changes to sense widgets in this way.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Beautiful Widgets from the Market is the closest you'll get to a transparent Flip Clock. Once installed go into it's settings and look through the downloadable clock skins. There's loads that look like the Sense Flip Clock. It's not free, but it is pretty cool.
I use it when running ADW Launcher... and then I get bored and switch back to Sense... and then vise versa!
Error on startup with clock
I am using the the weather & toggle app on my rooted nook tablet. I have the weather and flip clock on my home screen and it works fine until I power down the device. After the power down where the clock should be it says" Problem loading widget"
I am a noob here but this string was about the clock so I hope Im posting in the right place.
Thanx!!
Lirasina themed the clock so it is possible. Actually, I can take a look into it, shouldn't be too hard. Which Rom do you want me to do it for?
sent with love from me to you
Animated weather widget&clock is quite similar to the HTC sense.
However, in the rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1276544
there is a link for the HTC sense style clocks. I don't know if they work in other roms.

I dont have the tablet but when my flip clock (on my phone) has problems a simple "remove" and replacing of the widget generally fixes it. Then again, I don't have a tablet so maybe it's the rom…or ???

Not really crazy, what do you want me to change?
Edit: Is there an old style Sense clock in ZeroHero or only the new Sense 3.5 one?
Didnt work. I have to delete the clock from my home page and put it back everytime I power down. Could someone look into this. There has to be some way or some clock similar that doesnt have this problem.
Thanx!!

[Q] nexus hd2 ics rom lockscreen issue

Hi
When locking the screen on nexushd2 ics rom i am still able to access the status bar. Has anyone faced simillar issue.
Thanks
mine also...but i think it's more handy so i can open my incoming message without unlocking the device...is it really a bug?
Same on aokp. I have seen an option to have it active or not, maybe in widgetlocker, but i also like it on
Sent from my HD2 using the power of ICS
On gingerbread its not like as in ics. The status bar is not accessible on screenlock in android 2.3.7
NOT an advantage
hey guys!
have the same problem with nexushd2 jelly bean - but i cant agree with you - its a disadvantage that the hd2 unlocks itself be starting the settings after pulling down the status bar at lockscreen when you have your phone in your pocket..
is there any way in the new 4+ roms to disable the inbuilt-locksreen statusbar dropdown?

You can use pattern lockscreen - it will disable statusbar access
