[Request] Stock lockscreen in Sense build - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

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

Maybe later if people really like it and the project continues it could be

Work great, just one thing : could be great if the app auto unlock when the phone receive a call (coz the diamond have a nice "slide to answer") and re-lock after the call...

...but the main idea is to prevent users from pressing accidentally the answer/ignore button when an incoming call arrived!
Anyway various ideas comes in mind for new versions
Yes, I know, but it is also very usefull for *just* lock the phone : I play a game, I read my mail, or anything, then I just turn off the phone and *hop* it's locked.
I don't worry if a reminder occur, if the on/off button is push accidentaly, or anything else, because I know that the phone is lock until I do a 45% vertical slide
And cherry on the cake, when I ask myself "what time is it ?", I just have to push a button (otherwise, I need to back to home screen with TF3D)
So if you plan to add a user config system to your app, please put a little "manage incomming call ?" box
getting better and better. after a few days i got unsatisfied with all the oter lock apps. but this is killer.
ps. is there a way to auto unlock for incoming calls? in most of the roms there is the phone canvas slider. that would do the job in that case, too.

Can't see a reason why...
Have you install the .NET Compact Framework 3.5 ?
Try a soft reset and execute it again!
i reinstalled netcf and now it works great. thanks.
installed it, runs very nice but unfortunately it makes the reminder and the alarm unusuable when an alarm comes up, the lock screen appears like it should. when you unlock, the message of the alarm or reminder is gone and you have to tap on the top-line icon to get it back also the funktion to let the alarms sound even in vibrate or silence mode won't work no mor... the device only vibrates.....

The last part has nothing to do with the LmL. Maybe some other setting to try ?!?
This is simply fantastic.
I too would like to be able to answer the phone without unlocking it. I would be quite happy with just using the hardware keys on the Diamond which seem to be locked for an incoming call.
Personally, I dont need or want other options - its simplicity is perfect. Something small and light.
perhaps its possible to implement the ability to assign some exceptions for lockmelite, i.e. that it should not lock normal homescreen (when you turn on the device consciously you don't need to have it locked i guess) or even for an upcoming alarm... THEN it really would be a perfect app!
New Release
version 1.2 released!
Enjoy
Hey man, great job!!! I love it
Now we just need an autostart function, hehe

weirdness on the slide lock

Greetings all.. After installing the Dusk theme, my phone no longer automatically locks when the screen times out. I have to hit the lock button. Any thoughts on this??
The stock lock feature is a part of TF3D. If you're not running TF3D as your Today screen the lock timeout won't function.

I do like S2U2...I've had it on several of my devices but the Imagio is such a memory hog as it is I think S2U2 just adds a bit more bulk than I would prefer. I also tried speedbooster to help but that caused more problems so I had to uninstall.
Other then the text message tap option not working the device runs pretty well...a little sluggish at times but nothing a clean ram won't fix. Just wish I could find a way to fix it!

I had the same problem; I just set the Windows lock screen to lock for 24 hours and I'm not harassed by it.
This cab will disable the stock lock screen, just install and reboot...

[Q] How to change the lock screen

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?

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!

Removing the HTC lockscreen

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
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
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
Sent from my EVO Shift
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?
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
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
