I just tried the latest version of Lockbot.
Again, they did not solved for us the issue about double lockscreen.
Your original lockscreen will appear first. than theirs....so...annoying as hell
I recently rooted my x10 and with titanium backup I deleted moxier and some foreign keyboards. But I can't find where they placed the original lockscreen program.
I think when you delete it from the system and install Lockbot the problem will be solved? Or is this a wrong way of thinking from me?
Does anyone knows where in the device they hide the lockscreen programm?
Cheers,
Arnold
I don't know of a way to delete it, there is an app in the market called no lock or something similar?!

It is CRAZY that you can't have just the "secure" lock, but have to do the "simple" lock THEN the "secure lock". Turning off the "secure" lock is no good, I want that protection!
Does anyone know if this has been sorted in future Android versions? Or is it just for the x10? I'm a relative newbie to all this.
there is a pay app called "goto". you can check "replace the original screenlock" to remove it. unfortunately, the built-in screenlock comes back from time to time.

Thank you for answering.
After I installed the latest lockbot version AND RESTARTED my phone it is working well for the first time after 300 versions of Lockbot
BUT, they made it so well you never see the original lockscreen back. You might think " THATS GREAT!"
Yes, but when you put your phone in airplane mode and put it back to normal mode, you won't able to login anymore as you don't see the original lockscreen. So you have to restart your phone before it works again. That might answer my own question....IF you are able to delete the lockscreen from your phone totally I think you are screwed as you need it to login your phone with your password.
So Lockbot improved a lot, and works great as long as you don't put your phone in airplane mode and switch it back to normal mode. That requires a reboot. I tested this new version of Lockbot for a day intensively and further on it works great and I did not see the original lockscreen anymore.
I will test it for another few days and when it is still working fine I will buy it.

Arnold

What version is that?

Still no problems...

Hmm, i have buy pro version 1.15.2 and i have still dual lock screen problem
Did you restart?
I just read the only bug is when you hit the menu button when its locked, than the double will appear. I tested that and its true. But after re boot its working great again. Or go to settings in lockbot and uncheck and check again the option to replace original lockscreen
It can t be working for me only I guess, my phone is rooted but I don't think that make a difference...
Sent from my rooted x10i using tapatalk. Cheers, Arnold
now it works, I should just disable "No Lock" apps ...BTW my X10i is also rooted ...
Great, I thought I gave wrong advice...

For root users with recovery img only.
Save zip to sdcard, reboot into recovery, and flash the zip from sdcard.
Enjoy.
OR
If you comfortable with a linux shell, you can mount the system partition as rw, and delete the htclockscreen app from /system/app (if you even think about asking me for help, just use the patch and save us both some wasted time). However feel free to email/msg/call at home at 1am Unheard for help, since he wanted to point out the command line procedure.

applying wallpaper to the nexus lock screen
hey fantastic patch by the way! thanks so much for the hard work. i do prefer the nexus lock screen however is the transparency the only option? i tried to apply the wall via menu/wallpaper/lockscreen...says wallpaper applied etc but doesnt show when the device is locked. is this a limitation of the initial root? would it be advisable to go to v3 of the 2.1 root? again fantastic work much appreciated...
v0.3.0 is advisable, wont fix your problem. Will look into it after I have a break from the phone for a bit.
One other bug ive seen with the wallpaper is that it does not allow you to shut off or snooze your alarm so I had to restart or appkill to get it to shut off

By using that nandroid backup you made, right before trying it?
Didn't make one? Probably have to reflash.
Im good backup didnt work at first because Im guessing the phones power was low. Right after I posted had put my wifes phone on the pc to charge and the nandroid back up went through.
I'm probably in the minority that actually enjoys the lock screen more than live wallpapers, but this patch is great. Other than a few small visual issues, this is perfect. I hated the Sense lock screen. Great work jcase!
installed it and love it only issue i have with it would be the alarm wont snooze...will you be working on that or is this just something we would have to work around? other than that its a great extra
The issue is in the HTC Alarm, and Sense. Use another alarm clock.
Love it. Nice job.

what are some good alarm clock replacements out there that i might be able to use?
Dunno, when you find one tell me please.
Sent this to a buddy cuz he too scared to do the commands via adb and he is an idiot and got it to work. I stamp this, idiot proof.
Thanks for this. Saves me on gas having to do this for his phone.

Gentle Alarm works much better.
thanks for this!
was a great addition to my theme
I love the Nexus lock screen it keeps me from pocket dialing. I wish I could set a lock screen background though.
I really like this lockscreen and it works great except if i put my phone into airplane mode. When it comes out of airplane mode, the lockscreen continues to say 'No Sim Card', display the 'emergency call' and no longer show the battery charge. Rebooting the phone fixes it. Perhaps the CDMA Nexus One lock screen will fix this problem.
Hey quick question, I really dislike the EVO Sense lockscreen, I'd much rather have the 2.1 lockscreen style, Flan I think. How would I go about removing it?
Thanks!
Turn off Sense and it is gone.
Remove htclockscreen.apk and .odex or rename them and you should get stock while keeping the other sense goodness.
I turned of Sense and it stayed the original Sense lockscreen.
After you turned off Sense, it should have asked you what home screen you wanted...Sense or Launcher. I just tried it on my phone and it worked fine.

Same problem, the sense lock stayed with a disable. I want to keep sense but I dislike the Locker, I tried using terminal with the Unrevoked root and I can't seem to access the APN? It says access denied or something.
Downloaded RootExplorer and mounted Read and Write operations and changed the name of the two files, Rebooting now. Lets see if that worked.
That didn't work, the file comes right back when I reboot.
I would like to now how to do this too. I am using ADW launcher and the Sense lock screen is still there.
Try no lock in the Market. Also lets you use the volume rocker to come out of standby.

We don't have /system rw in android yet. That is why its not working.
You have to boot to recovery (nandroid screen), mount, and change through adb.

Thank you! Just what I was looking for although it would also be nice to be able to double tap one of the for cap buttons to wake up the Evo.
EDIT: Oh it seemed just about perfect and then I figured out that it also turns off the screen lock for incoming calls which is no good for me.
removing htclockscreen.apk and odex does bring up the android lockscreen however, the graphics are off, just like the hero was.
Well damn I've tried 3 different computers and I cannot get ADB to detect my phone correctly so that I can work around and delete the stuff. Is there a guide I can follow exactly to the tee for the Evo 4g
I saw a app on the market to remove the sense screen. Can't remember what its called tho.

I have though, the drivers I try to use will not install when I go to device manager, and I've tried stopping windows from installing automaticly to use the drivers from the SDK.
Lockbot Pro. Best app there is. Built in editor to make your own or browse the gallery and download.
I just made an X10 Themed lockscreen. I'm happy.
What is the Code I need to put in? I'm on the green nandroid screen
So i use an exchange 2003 server for all my email, contacts, and calendar but after flashing some of the new roms it seems my previous methods for disabling the lock no longer work.
I've tried lock picker, and even the instructions from keyguard controller on how to patch the Mail.apk but i still get the lock screen.
Does anybody know how to completely remove the lock screen? This is driving me nuts and i do not have access to the exchange 2003 server to change any settings.
Thanks for any help guys!
Ive had this problem and was driving me nuts. Today wanted buttons to be replaced, but they replaced the whole damn phone. Long story short after rooting.
I surpassed the exchange policy by this apk.
I did this.
adb push Mail.apk /system/app
Reboot...
Once done, i added exchange account, went through the whole setup.
After that i went back into the settings, security, device administrator- removed that, and went yes on all the warnings of it deleting. Then still on security screen, i turned off the screen lock/setup the pattern lock.
Hopefully this helps you out.
Oh and this was all thanks to this thread here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10266578&postcount=307
but since your using an evo, and this Mail.apk works for me, id figure it work for you.
What about "no lock" by BoD ? I include it in my ROM and haven't had a case were it didn't work. Although I don't know what ROM you are using.

Don't know what a velocity rom is, but sounds like you either uninstalled your launcher or it is corrupt. Are you rooted? That's the only way I know that you could have uninstalled it. Here's what you can do to recover regardless. Go to play market from your computer, sign in with your assosiated account to the device and find a home launcher you like. I've used launcher pro and go launcher ex on the flipside. Send your choice to your phone. Then when you unlock the phone, press the home key and you should be given the choice to use the new launcher. Should fix, but you'll have to do some customizing.
it was rooted however i dont think it is now because i tryed to do the master reset when it first happened. will this still work without being rooted?

Not without being able to access the home screen. If you can't remember the google account associated with the phone, sounds like only option is to reflash with the stock sbf. You will lose all data on the phone but not the sd card. The files needed are in the development section.
i did it. i did another master reset resetup the emails form the beginning still had issues messed with the phone got the voice commands to open and told it to open the market by voice command and downloaded it from the phone. its working again now.

I haven't been able to get mine to work period. I have disabled and enabled the feature multiple time and I just can't get it to work.....
Use it all the time. Might be an issue with a specific version of the phone or if you have modified it somehow.

I have the T-Mobile version and it worked in the beginning, but now I can't get it to work
A shame since I was just getting used to it and how to gesture it on and off.
This seems to be a Samsung issue rather than a carrier fault.
(mine is unlocked and in use on AT&T)
Would it be advisable to contact Samsung directly?
Go to Settings>Device>Accessibility, and check under "Services". Having apps turned on there can break the one-handed function.
I have NiLS for lockscreen notifications, but it seems to run fine even when the service permission is turned off.

Bingo! Thank You barnabydog!
The good news: It worked! I turned off the offending app and I'm back in business!
The bad news: The offending app was Pebble (smartwatch)
A feature that is more useful to me than the one handed mode . . .
So then is this the sad state of affairs? I have to choose between my Mini-screen mode and my smart watch?
How did you know about this barnabydog?
is there another thread that discusses this issue?
Yes, but I was too lazy to search for it.
