[Q] CWM Disable Puzzle Option - Continuum General

I noticed within CWM that there's an option to Enable/Disable Puzzle Lockscreen hidden in the Advanced menu. Would this allow me to disable the lockscreen so I have no lockscreen at all? Or is this used for those using AOSP so they can switch between the two?
Regardless, I'm looking for a way to disable my lockscreen entirely. Any solutions?
Thanks!

There's a thread in development section of this device that has good instructions

If you're referring to the thread I think you are, that does not help me.
The only thread concerning disabling the puzzle lock provides a method that will also remove the pop-up dialog when holding down the power key. My only concern is removing the puzzle lock. I don't want to change how the phone powers down.
I read a few of the threads in the dev section that I thought might exlpain the CWM feature I'm asking about. None of them have addressed it. Hence why I'm asking people who have the same phone as me.

Really? I'm on the VooDoo lagfix version, whatever post I used to get to EC09 had this version up so I assumed all of us here had the same version. I tried it and it did absolutely nothing, so I'm guessing there's something about the Continuum that keeps it from working (the ticker, perhaps?).

Possibly. That's the reason apps like no lock don't really work.

It's an error in custom animations I have uploaded, since I haven't created animations I can't fix it, but if its bothering you so much, you can flash stock animations just for lockscreen, it should fix it.

I wasn't aware that the problem was with the custom animations... good to know.... but I don't think that the problem is really severe enough to pay much mind to it.
I'm moving this to General because it's not really development related.
Not sure this is on topic but i'll give it a go.
My phone has just updated to 2.2.1 (thanks vodafone) and now has a new unlock screen when it first wakes up. This involve two sliders, one that appears to be a screen unlock, and the other something to do with silent/volume.
The phone unlock would e good, if i couldn't just press the menu button a second time to achieve the same end. Can the menu button be cancelled, in order to make the unlock bar useful?
Also, is the other slider bar customisable?
Failing this, is there anywhere that actually goes through all of the main changes, so I can educate myself?
Cheers, Steve

I can't find anything under settings about Cyangenmod but my system info says:-
Android version 2.2.1
Baseband 62.50sj.20.17u_2.22.28.25
kernal 2.6.32.9-27237-gbe746fb
build number FRG83D
Does this narrow it down?
If it helps, settings wallpapers, does not then send me off to animated wallpapers. So maybe it's not a full 2.2.1 because vodafone realise that they stripped out too much memory/cpu originally that its not man enough to run some stuff.
Cheers.

Okay, after re-reading your post I now understand that you're just using plain stock. No custom rom. The sliding bars are not customizable.
I still don't understand what you are asking regarding the Menu button.

I am just confused. Put it this way. In order to wake up the phone and start using it, I press the menu button. This opens up the unlock screen, cool.
Here's the problem, do I now move my thumb from the menu button and swipe it across the screen to unlock my phone..........or do I just press the menu button again. It does the same thing. So what is the point of the unlock swipe?

I suppose depending on the circumstances it might be easier to press a button that you can feel than something on a touchscreen that you can't.
There have been times when I have been wearing my gloves at work that the touchscreen doesn't respond to well while wearing them. However hitting the menu button works fine for exiting the lock screen.
How's that for an acceptable answer?

[Q] Volume Button Wake

I'm looking for a simple app that allows the the Atrix to be woken up via the volume buttons.
I know that there are several other apps, but they all center around removing the lock screen, or replacing it. I *want* the lock screen, I just also want to be able to use the volume keys to wake the phone up.
Is there ANYTHING out there like this? Just this SIMPLE function? I'd even use a bloated app if it allowed me to use the stock lock screen.
Just try widget locker. You can customize it so it can be simple like you want it.

I gave it a try, and it *almost* works like I want it. I use the fingerprint to unlock, and if you have both the pattern and the fingerprint set, it appears as though after the device wakes up you still need to swipe the screen. This is a hassle. Maybe I'm missing something in the configuration? Also, it appears that WidgetLocker is laggy as hell.

I'm not sure why you are upset?
I asked for an application that allowed me to keep my factory lock screen, and NoLock does not do that. If you have "NoLock" enabled, then the volume keys wake up the phone... they also UNLOCK the phone. If you disable "NoLock", you have the lock screen back, but the volume keys do not wake the phone.
Maybe if you had actually read the post, you would have realized why I responded the way I did.
I know there's an app for it. But I can't remember.
One thing is if you have tasker set context volume buttons, task screen on.

For now, you caa use "anyunlock" on market. This tool is not stable if you use with advance task killer and fast reboot. This is shorterm solution with me!

This app right in the FAQ section says, "Can I use the standard Android Lock Screen", and the answer from the developer is no... Still not what I'm looking for.
Any luck finding that?
WidgetUnlocker now allegedly supports the finger print scanner of the ATRIX. I have found it unreliable at BEST.
I'm waiting for another release to see if the capability gets more stable.
The problem with wu is that it's canceling the slide to answer and that renders it useless.
Sent from my Atrix
Nolock will prevent full lockscreen but allow to bring out of sleep mode via either volume buttons or power button. The timed sleep mode in settings will put phone to sleep.

[Q] How do you change android's vibration pattern back to the original vibration?

So after I updated my samsung continuum to 2.2 and putting EC09 my vibration pattern changed. Instead of the two small vibrations it does one long vibration. I'd rather stay with the original pattern.. Is there a way to change it back to the original? Not through apps but through roots or zips?

Which app is the vibration changed in? Messaging notifications, phone calls, another app, what? Is it across the board on all non call notifications? Which rom are you on? is it odexed or deodexed?
It changed on all the apps I download and all of the apps already installed *messaging and calling included* And I'm EC09 Deodexed. It randomly changed the vibration from the two small buzz to one long buzz.

Hmmm. It could be changed back, if you were to hack something in (I believe) services.jar. Dont ask me to do , it, though. That's above my pay grade. To be honest, its been so long since I've been on eclair, that I dont remember what the vibration pattern was. Is there a particular reason you want the double vibration back, or is it just personal preference?
Sent from my SCH-I400 using Tapatalk 2
Hmm.. I've been hearing either framework or service jar but I'll check. And the double vibration I find it better. During work it does an extremely long vibration and it distracts everyone. When I had the double vibrate the vibration was soft and didn't distract anyone.

Enabling On-Screen Buttons

Is there any way I can enable the on-screen buttons on the stock GS4 ROM. I'm trying to reduce the usage of the home button because I'm scared it might break/stop working anytime :/ The tutorial in the dev section doesnt seem to apply for me.

I think this is non sense. You will loose a part of screen for the on screen buttons. The home button will not break/stop working. You don't need to worry about this. And in the worst case if this will ever happen you can bring it back for free repair or replace it yourself (very cheap).
Personally i highly doubt that something like this will happen.

You can try downloading an app called EasyTouch, that wont take screen space. Its similar to the accesibility mode on the iphone.

You don't even need that, as this is built in, just look in the accessibility settings.
But... You can always do that IF the button fails. For now, don't worry about the hypothetical failure you may experience one day, just use the hard button
