[Q] Still Seeing the Samsung Lockscreen? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've tried installing several custom lockscreen, currently using C-Locker. The problem is, occasionally the stock Samung lockscreen will appear. Sometimes it will get replaced in a second by the custom lockscreen and sometimes the stock lockscreen stays until I turn off the screen and turn it back on.
Is there a way to freeze/stop the stock lockscreen? or to make the custom lockscreen the ONLY lockscreen that see?
Thanks

Go to settings, search for lockscreen, set it from swipe to none. Simple
You're welcome.

Jesus man, I looked everywhere and I must have missed it. Thanks for the help.
Damn, but it still leaves the swipe lock screen.

If you want to change the lockscreen use widget locker lockscreen. It has the original 2.1 lockscreen plus you can use Widgets.

setting> location and security> require lock screen.
"Sweep" screen is gone forever.

Try NoLock.
NoLock removes the lock screen totally. So when you press the power button on the Vibrant... you're on your home screen, or whatever you were doing before you turned the screen off.

Use WidgetLocker. If you use it with Beautiful Widgets it makes the most awesome lockscreen ever.

I use GOTO lockscreen and it works great.

Elaborate, please.
I went with GOTO, and it works great! No more stock swipe to unlock anymore. Yay!
I do it with Tasker. Keyguard disable. That way I can still have my keys locked if the phone gets turned on for some reason while I'm out & about.
I've had more fun with that app that I have the Sims3. You get a free week if you download from the site rather than Market.
On the flip side,i would like to know how to make everything that uses notifications have puzzle pieces.

Doesn't exist on mine either. PathogenX, do you have a rooted ROM? I have "NoLock", but this would reduce one additional app installed.
This is how customizable widget locker is

any devs out there that know how or are maybe interested in a way... I would be willing to donate for something like that and I am sure others would too....
MikFroyo 4.4 has it if you flash the rotary lockscreen mod. I'm using it right now. He adds an app to set up patterns or gestures, then you can disable the slide lock, and have an only gesture lockscreen.

I assume that is not something I can flash over my CM rom? Let me know if that is not the case, but thanks, this is on the right track.

Lockscreen similar for QQ Launcher's or similar

Is there a way some could extract the lockscreen from QQ Launcher or recommend a lockscreen that is very similar to it? I tried to get some off the market but those never override the system lockscreens. I was hoping for a apk or even a zip for one.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I dont know what that lock screen is but i use menu lock which gives you 8 buttons. You pull the button over to open an app that you have assigned. I also use No Lock which is an app that keeps your phone from using its lock. Together it makes it to where the only lock i see is menu lock.
It is the best app i have of the over 100 i now have and the well over 500 i have tried.
Good luck.

Thanks for replying.... I forgot all about No Lock. I think I know how to get the lockscreen that I want.

Yup NoLock is great I use it to text at school and don't want an unlock screen lol
Sent from my SPH-D700
Well I think I spoke to soon. I can't disable the system's lockscreen. Even with No Lock enabled. I downloaded the QQ Launcher just for the lockscreen so that I could use it with Go Launcher. It works sometimes, but Im still getting my old system lockscreen. Its gotta be a way to disable the system lockscreen.

[Q] How to disable touchwiz popups in lockscreen?

I would like to use Dasclock widget on my default lockscreen, but it's kind of useless now with the sms popups overrunning the default lockscreen widget. It's already annoying enough not to have expanded widget by default (like in so many note2 roms). Does anyone know how to disable the popups from lockscreen/how to enable expanded lockscreen widget always on?
I have rooted N9005
Thanks.
Did you try disabling notifications in the text app?

Thanks for answer.
Yes I have and it kills the popup, but also the sound alert and the notification bar. So that's not the solution for me.
I would like to have notifications in the DashClock widget and in the notification bar and the sound..and man i would love to have the Dashclock expanded by default, the collapsed version seem kinda useless imo.
- Got rid off lockscreen notifications with an app called SMS Popup. Now if only someone would know a way to expand widgets by default. Has anyone tried Xposed with note 3? I'm little hesitant to give it a try..

Using xposed with mine right now. Quite a few modules running with no issues. Haven't tried anything like what you are wanting to do though.

Lockscreen widgets are gone in favour of notifications in Lollipop. You can't have lockscreen widgets without a third party lockscreen app or going back to kitkat.
