Hi guys im new to the forum and, i dont know much around. Could you guys tell me how i could change the lock screen to standard 2.2 Froyo lock screen? I dont want to use the Sense lock screen and i have already tried out lockbot which fails to work miserably.
Thnx Guys ^^
Damn thanks button..., try widget locker, you can also mod it as well if you want to.
Thnx for replying but unfortunately i cant pay for it. Is there anything for free except widget locker and lockbot free?

I'm sure you'll be able to find it on google or on the internet somewhere , and lockbot is crap imo.
Also the widgetlocker website allows you to pay for it via paypal. http://teslacoilsw.com/widgetlocker
I've got default android lock screen by using wildpuzzle + remove htc widgets package.
Just wondering weather to use widget locker or try and mod this one.
Kevin, do you think widget locker will work better without the htc lockscreen?
i shyed away from it in the past because it would show up when screen was locked and unlocked within the 5secs...
Yes it works perfect with the stock android lockscreen, it never shows up after i unlock widget locker.
Just don't forget to enable 5 second root rule just in case.

A lot of thnx for the link and I really appreciate the replies, just one more thing how can i install app to my phone from the computer?
first go to settings -> applications and enable uknown sources....then copy the app to your sd card ...when you do all that use any file manager and go to your sd card and find the app you want to install...then just click on it
use the market app to download a file manager if you dont have one jet
sorry for my english
I've tried the widget locker app, but after the unlocking, annoying animation of flying squares in shades of gray appears. is that normal? how to disable it?
Realy stupid, isn't it I was wondering myself what the hell that was, and when it was raining a saw a very crapy animation of droplets falling on my screen. So the square thing is a weather animation - i think it's supose to tell you that it is cloudy outside
Just look in the setting, you will find an option somewhere where you can choose to show the animation at every screen, show it just when unlocking the home screen or disable it.

Why you dont use WidgetLocker Lockscreen v1.2.8.1 ...you can find it on web for free and if you dont I send it to you!
oh so that was the weather animation...thought it was a bug, thnx!

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
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
anybody else think the lockscreen is awful, ive searched about but cant find nothing on changing it anybody know different?
got the phone today coming from an x10 and..... WOW smoother than barry white
I'm using widget locker. Think it's fantastic!

Stock lock screen is pony.

Definitely go for Widgetlocker.
Widgetlocker!!! its brill
Like others have said, Widget Locker is probably the best. It's available for $0.99 in the Amazon App Store and it's one of their best selling apps (that's how I found out about it).
Thanks guys, just got it. agreed its the nuts!
the other little thing pissing me off, cant customise the powercontrol widget.
Anyway to get WidgetLocker to not unlock with home key press?

Yes, it got something to do with homehelper.
Go to advanced settings/homehelper/ and check the boxes for 'Homehelper Block Home & Block Home In Other Apps'.
That did the trick for me.

Same but I want something which works with Samsung's music player's lockscreen widget.
Where I don't need to unlock phone to change tracks, pause /play etc.
Anyone got any ideas???
You can change the background under Settings > Display > Screen display > Lock screen > Wallpaper

WidgetLocker has full widget capabilities. As long as it's a standard widget that can be added through the widget menu, you should be fine to add it to the WidgetLocker screen.

extended controls (0.99)
I'm using the stock android pattern lockscreen.
when I enable widget locker it appears an icon in the notification tab. Is there a way to remove that?

Extended Controls. Market search it. It is the best one you could ever imagine. It does cost, but I bought it (and I am one cheap-skate! ) Great app. Allows you to easily make the powercontrol widget, with a number of themes, or icon packs. Very useful app.
I remember when I bought it, there are a number of different apps that do the same thing. But this one just looked the best at the time, so have a quick read of the info on each app.
Where are the setting to enable multiple widgets on the lockscreen? It was under lockscreen in settings for my s4....I cant find them anywhere on this note 4

Samsung got rid of third party widgets and app shortcuts on the lock screen.

After the first week or so with lockscreen widgets on other phones, I found them useless. They were limited in information and functionality... and honestly, my muscle memory was to pickup my phone and unlock it. Then if they magnified to the full screen, the area to swipe to unlock got small... I just think for me, they were a waste. Once I am 2 or 3 swipes, or touches in, I can unlock it just as fast.
I hope someone figures out how to add them back. I have an ICE app that I need to have a lock screen widget for.
I always used the message g widget, always quicker than unlocking and going into the messaging app, I also used the app shortcut widget that u swipes to the right for, especially after getting spoiled using cover lockscreen, which I uninstalled due to too many bugs

I know that with root, I can use Xposed framework and download galaxy s5 widget to do it... but what about Note4 without root ?
(P.S. I'm sorry for my English...)
Ice contact lock screen
You can add your ICE contact (phone number etc.) to lockscreen by writing it in to the "owner information" -field, which can be found under lockscreen settings. No need for ICE-app.

Do we have to ROOT for PATTERN UNLOCK ?
Do we have to ROOT for ENABLING another LOCK SCREEN APPLICATION ?
Is there any lock screen application which supports Nokia X2 Lock screen WIDGETS ?
Is there any application with all of the above features ?
Please help me .
Thank You.
Dont know any lock screen with widgets like x2. But give HiLocker a try, stock lock screen can be disabled through it. Just select none option. It got some odd lollipop and I-phone ui fusion, but it looks nice. Also shows notifications. Im currently using it.
just replace it with any locker from playstore, and dont forget to disable stock lockscreen
