I want vanilla android lock screen. Widget locker сant remove it completely and can't skip it on reboot. It also works sometimes very strangely and slowly!
That's odd. I purchased Widget Locker and it works fine on my GS2. I no longer see Samsung's lockscreen after reboot or standby. And I've no issues with the behavior and performance of it either.
Perhaps check your WidgetLocker settings.
Did you enable "Appear on boot"?

Yes, it doesn't help. I've tried every setting possible to set. Also middle button works terrible! I need to press it many time before it starts working. Besides middle button turns off lock screen, but I don't want it and I don't know how to disable this.
Anyway, why I need to use it? I just want to use only ONE standart lockscreen. Without any unnecessary soft in memory.
I'm using WidgetLocker and i got no problem, it completely replaced the default lockscreen. Just use easy wake wake mode and appear on boot and samsung's default lockscreen will be replaced.
How to disable unlocking by pressing a middle button?

No, it's not! If you quickly press power button than try to unlock screen - you will see a samsung lockscreen for a second. Samsung lockscreen and widget locker just working in same time.
Have you disabled Samsung's lockscreen ? I don't have my SGS2 yet but on my current Android phone I can completely disable existing lockscreen.

Sorry, mine works perfectly. Can't see any trace of samsung lockscreen, nor when i unlock, neither in applications running. I also disabled it from WidgetLocker settings, so there's no way it can run or appear.
Ok, let it show for a second, this is not a big problem. Told me - how to disable unlocking by pressing middle button???
In samsung default lockscreen (or any default lockscreen on android device) i press power or middle button - and screen show on. In widget locker I press middle button (power button works here ok) and waiting from 2 to 5 seconds before screen go on. This problem is only with my device?

Yes, in widget locker settings
I was having similar issues and enabled easy wake mode as a previous poster said-now spot on. There are a lot of settings to get right i must admit

My home button doesn't unlock the device, it just wakes it. In button actions i just cleared every button and only allowed volume buttons. I'm talking about WidgetLocker, not default samsung lockscreen.
Found setting in widget locker to disable middle button unlock phone, but slow home button is still here.

"Настройки - Расширенные настройки - HomeHelper - HomeHelper блокирует"
In english may be
"Settings - Advanced settings - HomeHelper - HomeHelper blocking"
Is there a way or app to turn on screen by swiping without using home or power button?

Tap Tap App ( Screen On-Off )
Tap Unlock (Screen unlock)
search play.store these apps working with tap but swiping on off screen is little bit meaningless !

Hi,
Im developing a lockscreen app.. everything works fine, but user can easily unlock the phone by pressing home button rather than entering password. is there a way to lock or disable the home button other than using onAttachedtoWindow or setting the app as deault homescreen?
Thanks
Marcus
what file do I need to modify to remap the home button .. i have tried
system/usr/keylayout/atmel_mxt_ts.kl
system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl
system/usr/keylayout/gpio-keys.kl
there are tons of other files, which one is the correct one??
I want to remap home button to turn on/off screen ... as I have the ridiculous issue with my s5 where the screen does not wake up (only the capacitive keys light up)
Home already wakes the phone up, NOVA Launcher can map it to any shortcut or app you like, find one that locks the screen and map it to that
Or are you saying that Home no longer wakes up the screen?
Settings > Device > Accessibility > Dexterity and interaction > Air Wake Up
You can wake the phone up by waving your hand over the sensors

I want the home button to behave exactly as the power button...i once remapped it but i forgot which file I edited
Hi there
I figured out how to change the long press home button to other 'Assist Apps' but really I'd just like to change it to a direct app shortcut (Google Voice Search).
Any ideas how to do this?
Thanks!

how did you change the home button?
search for home app in settings
Use Secure Settings
search for JB ExeNow on play store. This assist app can let you set which app to launch.
His other app JB Locknow is my favourite app for triggering lockscreen until Fingerprint lockscreen comes in (Better use other like Greenify to use other lock method otherwise you can do FP unlock from sleep - forced to unlock with pattern/code)
