let's hope this is the correct place to post this
I got the international galaxy S and I really hated the Samsung unlock screen
is it possible to replace it with the vanilla stock one ? and how ?
I use launcher pro so I don't mind losing touchwiz anyway
I'm running on a rooted device
and thank you
I am very curious about this too.
Would really like to have the stock unlock screen that also has the 'silent mode' option when you swipe from right to left instead.
seems like either nobody knows or nobody cared to try it
there are programs to change the lock screen , but nothing is like the real thing
Truth to be told you have 2 options.
1. Use samsungs lock screen, it has missed call/sms/blah notifications on it, and also music player controls.
2. Use pattern lock, it's the same as stock then.
I am using samsung's lock screen now , so that's not an alternative option XD
but I'd like to have the stock one .. love it >.<
and pattern lock .. it's awful trying to unlock it while driving [tried it XD]
as far as i know, widgetlocker lets you unlock your screen with vanilla sliders!

It has other features like widgets on your lock screen, sounds like a promising app, you should try it out and see if it fits your needs!
widget locker is great. try it

I tried it , but what bothered me is that you can't lift the unlock slider upward (the real one is kinda higher) and what was more annoying is you can edit the widgets from the lock screen , meaning you just by mistake keep on holding a widget and it moves
again , here I don't just want the look , I actually wanted to see if it's possible to change the apk , switch it from the touchwiz to the real stock apk file (if it exists)
You can switch from the Widget Locker unlock slider to the standard Android one in the settings, but you lose a line of widget/shortcut space. You can also make the unlock slider the Sense or iPhone one if that's your thing. You can also disable editing widgets while locked.
Widget Locker is worth the purchase really, it's cheap and does what you want.
I'm on rooted i9500 at the moment, stock android 4.2.2
Looking for a way to completely remove anything on the lock screen (make it transparent), aside the top status bar.
Lock screen can be in 2 modes at the moment. The first one, is with only once widget, and the other is with multiple widgets. And it would be perfectly fine with the single widget lockscreen, if only when I remove the clock widget (or "life partner") widget it didn't come back the next time the screen is locked.
I found a way to make it "kinda" work with multiple widgets, and the blank lockscreen widget:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wordpress.chislonchow.blanklockwidget&hl=en
It's ALMOST perfect, as it still has this f**** annoying plus sign on the side, and the top of the lock screen has this animation effect when I slide it. If I removed those 2 things, my lock screen would be perfect for me as I envisioned it in my head.
Any help (again, just a reminder, I am rooted, also have xposed framwework installed).

My last try I guess, or else I risk of getting a warning from a moderator
Anybody?
How do I get rid of these lock screen widgets especially the missed call.
This is a serious privacy issue and defeats the purpose of having the lock screen. I wonder, if Samsung was so fascinated by this feature, they should have given an option to disable it.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Does anybody know any way to bring back the next alarm to the lock screen - not as an additional widget but natively, on the main lock screen, as it used to be on any other Samsung phones I've had? I know the question has also been asked in the S5's forums but it doesn't seem to have a resolution yet...
Thanks!
The Samsung Galaxy S8 has been rather disappointing thus far...
I couldn't disable heads up notification without disabling notification entirely. I tried searching around and apparently there was a fix for S7 but doesn't work on S8. It would be great if somebody can come up with a sweet solution without rooting.
Anybody else experienced duplicated home screen icons despite disabling the app drawer? I have 3 icons of the same app and uninstalling one will get rid of all...
