Hi all,
I'm running the mattc Leo Evo ROM and I'm very happy whit it, but I would like to change the lock screen because sometimes when I pull the phone out of my pocket the incoming calls are accepted when I don't want to...
So, is it possible to change the lock screen?
Regards,
Delete the htclockscreen.apk from your /data/app folder, and reboot. It will give you the default froyo lockscreen.

That would be system/app it's right there!
Hello again!
That method works with the lock screen, but I would also like to change the screen to accept incoming calls.
Is it possible?
Regards,
Nobody knows how to do it?

The best way is to use the app called WidgetLocker. It has the original Vanilla Froyo lockscreen and a bunch of extra options with it!

I love the Sense rom, but the default lookscreen is unusable if you put your HD2 in the jeans pocket.
I wonder if is possible to have a Sense rom with the default froyo lockscreen instead of the standar one.
I tryed many lockscreen apk from the market, but they didn't work, always have crash or the default sense slider to asnwer a call (and that is the real problem )
I think that is a common problem for many many HD2 users, and a good solution could be appreciate from everyone.
Could some developer try to realize a Sense rom with the original Froyo lockscreen?
Thank you and sorry for my poor English
its easy... get root explorer, go to root>system>apps
then search for HTC Lockscreen.apk and delete both the apk file and the supporting odex file, reboot your phone, and youre done.
EDIT: warning, however if you use your phones alarm clock, the built in HTC lockscreen has the dismiss, and the snooze button built into it, so once deleted, you will not be able to turn off the alarm, you will have to either shut down the phone, or pull the battery and reboot.

You right. But with all this trick you always have something not working.
I would like (and I think I'm not the only one) to have a Rom with all working.
how about searching for a replacement lockscreen with a slider that goes from side to side,like s2u2/iphone so it won't unlock in your jean pocket?

For me deleting "HTC Lockscreen.apk" solve 50% of the problem. It solve only the default lock screen, but when you get a call, the "Call LockScreen" left as it was (up to down).
After some playing I found that deleting the "HTC" apk and installing "Full Screen Caller ID" from the market solved 98% of my accidental phone answers
there must be an option to use the stock call lock, without installing apps which cost money or have the permissions to services with cost.

I think that the problem is the sense lockscreen apk, if you do not delete it you always have some problem with lockscreen.
I wonder if deleting the apk I'll go back with the stock froyo slider also for answering or not.
Thank you
Install ""DIY Lockscreen" from the market. One of the options is to have the stock lockscreen (called 'android jog' there) and it's great and far more responsive than sense

Can someone please tell me how to remove the HTC locksreen so its the regular android? Thanks
You have to be rooted. And rename the htclockscreen.apk to htclockscreen.bak
Sent from my never been rooted, stock Froyo Epic.
how do you find/rename the file

I would recommend getting a root explorer. Htc lock screen app is in /system/app I believe. You could also use adb or a terminal emulator.
Open terminal emulator
Su
Cd /system/app
Mv htclockscreen.apk htclockscreen.sav
Hope that helps...
Don't forget to reboot
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
Get root explorer or something similar then mount as write then go to system/app and look for htclockscreen.apk and the odex file and delete them or move them somewhere in ur sdcard so u can restore it later if u want. Then reboot. U might have to reboot twice if it dosent work

You could also install WidgetLocker from the market. It will let you change the appearance of the lock screen, one of the choices is stock android.
Thanks now my rom is looking sexier lol now if I could find a working AOSP Mms.apk that sends mms..suggestions?

I found out, after removing the HTC lockscreen, that there is no way to turn off an alarm since the snooze and dismiss functions are integrated into the lockscreen apk, apparently. I had to restart the phone, or set alarm volume to 0 to get it to stop. I went back to the HTC lockscreen for now.
can some please post the stock lockscreen apk and the odex file?
i took it off with root explorer and i thought i saved it but i cant find it....
thanks for anyone who posts it

I know it's not what you asked but stick your finger on the little numbers before the bottom layer of apps (drawer, phone, etc) and drag left and right. It'll make switching quicker and so the fact it's first won't be as annoying.
This may sound stupid, leave the default homescreen as 1 and just change what 1 is?
menu->edit or pinch to get the homescreens up and just press and hold then move the one you want as default to the 1st spot?

Not possible without rooting the device!
It's one of the reasons why I ditched TouchWiz from the first day on. I use launcher pro now because I really like the dock with three pages for all my important apps.
If you root, you can edit default.prop to change this to another default screen
Download : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775154&highlight=homescreen&page=37
open SGS tools and go to .prop Editor and edit default.prop
#sets TouchWiz Launcher default screen
ro.csc.homescreen.defaultscreen=4
press menu and save I rebooted and it worked
(forgot to try if it's gonna work without rebooting )
enjoy

Lack of information isn't helpful. If you are using a non-stock launcher it is possible you have locked it. Press menu on the homescreen and look for "unlock".

Custom ROM/Kernel?
Version etc?
Sometimes I can't even place a shortcut in the homescreen. This happens to me when I use folders.
When I reboot, all the shortcuts that I had placed on the screen are in some folder. It seems it stays opened but not visible.
My suggestion... Reboot.

Yeah, my guess is ADW? If its set to 'locked' then it won't let you do anything on your screens..
tried to look for a way with no luck.
when using market lockscreens the default samsung one is still ON.
you have to swype the default one and then interact with the installed one.
I use No Lock

No lock does the trick nice and well
Thanks guys, I was also looking for something like that...
tried it but its working only form time to time...really strange.
can`t we "delete" the entire samsung lockscreen?
