Launcher Home Screens - Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, just wondering what types of launchers and home screen setups you all have. Device has been unlocked, cant remember if rooted but i think so (i have the little unlocked lock icon). The stock look and feel are getting old to me.

Alternatives to swipe lock screen?

I am not a big fan of the stock swipe lock screen on the phone. Is there a way to disable it or replace it with something else other than the pattern lock thingy?
Mods: Not sure if this should be in themes, if so please move.
Thanks.
I think I heard about other users on the forum using a app named NoLock to get rid of the lock screen.
Any of the lockscreen apps on the Market should replace the stock one for you. Try LockBot, Widget Locker (real nice and customizable), Lock2.0 (think that's what it was).
I'm with the OP. I don't find the TW lock screen as useful or as good looking as the stock 2.1 / 2.2 lock screen. Is there a way we can port the stock android lock screen to the Vibrant? I've looked through the phone and I haven't found any files that blatantly say "hey, this is the lock screen" to me. Is this possible?
check this one out its got a clip so u know what its like before u buy it or "buy" its lol

Yep, WidgetLocker would be your best bet for a 2.1 look. I've used it and it actually is really nice and customizable.
This may be a dump question since the creation of live wallpapers but is it possible to have like maybe a screensaver instead of a lockscreen

Changing the Lock screen

Howzit guys,
Wanting to know - is there anyway to change to a different (Not a sliding one) type of lock screen? Just find it annoying at times
If so, how do I go about doing it?
Thanks!
Don;'t know if you are looking for an app or a actual rom mod.
There are plenty of lockscreen replace apps on the market, such as Lockbot (I use pro on OD)
which can give you customisable hero, flan, eclair and froyo lock screens, and can upgrade to pro to use X10 and Galaxy lockscreens.
There are plenty more, but this is the one I use.

Default Home Screen

Hi Guys,
Noob question here I think. I looked all over trying to find the answer to this.
Somehow, my default home screen (when the phone is powered on) is no longer the middle one, but the far left on.
How do i change it back to the middle one?
Thanks!
Stock launcher, or LauncherPro?
Stock launcher.
Looking into Launcher pro threads right now in fact ...
Omgoodness!
Launcher Pro is the Bizness!

[Q] Lock screen

Hey is there a way to get stock android lock screen, instead how the sense ?. dont know witch rom iam gonna use just yet. but is it possible too flash the lock screen ?
//pk
I think you could use widget locker. It has a bunch of sliders from other launchers.
See this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847259&highlight=lock+screen
The second post worked perfectly for me.

[Q] Removing Empty Home Screens???

Hello guys, I am new to this forum and I bought a XPeria Arc the other day and let me say its the best phone ever made. Nothing beats it. So anyway I have been going through its never ending features and found out that the phone has more than one home screen. However I want only one or two. So I removed the timescpae app and the other widgets and emptied three out of my five home screeen to keep it short and simple. My problem is the empty home screens are still there and wont go and wont go. SO when I press the home button I am taken to an empty home screen with just a wallpaper. So my question is how do i remove empty unwanted home screens and just have one or two?
your only option is to use another launcher such as launcher pro or ADW from the market as you can specify how many home screens you use. These are great launchers and have their pros and cons when compared to SE launcher.
Best thing is to try them and see what you think
but as for your issue with pressing the home screen and going to an empty screen, you need to move your widgets to that screen. The home button centers your screens on the middle one
I think you may have your widgets on the wrong screen you need to have them on the 3rd screen/middle screen.
