I used an lcd density changer (temporary one)
with the lock 2.0 app being default lock screen and after i changed my density
back lock 2.0 'slide to unlock' is out of bounds as is most of the
elements. I tried even switching to a bigger density (so everything is
smaller) and its still out of bounds. I was wondering if anyone knows what is
the problem and how to fix. I tried unistalling the app and
reinstalling etc.
Thanks in advance.
Just your app, can't work with that DPI
I'm using 100 DPI, and unlocking with LockBot Pro. It sucks too, but unlocking (I'm searching for a new one, but I'm too lazy hehe )
If sometimes you only see standard unlocking screen, just hold power button, choose plane, and do it again.

Yes, but it worked before, something got messed up, i think.
Probably cleaning my cache would help or something but i dont want to lose my settings etc.
Use widget locker fully customizable

Any info how to make the default froyo lockscreen in portrait ?pls advice
I had to buy WidgetLocker
Lock 2.0 will also force lockscreen to portrait.
Full version
Demo version
LockBot also uses portrait.
Free version
Paid version
I played a bit with LockBot free and it works better if you use something like NoLock to turn off the phone's built-in lockscreen. I'm not using a security lock.
I like LockBot better from the few minutes I tried them out.
Edit: the free version of LockBot has no ads and has three lockscreens you can choose from. It also allows unlocking form the menu button. See attached images for Lockbot free lockscreens.
To choose a theme in the free version open Lockbot from the app tray. Tap My themes. Then hit the menu key and then playlist. In the free version you can pick from the three themes pictured in the attachments. The ones you select will rotate. Select only one if you want the same lockscreen each time.
How do u get lock 2.0 to so lock screen in full mode?

That's my current setup. I changed the backgrounds for the lockscreens to pics of my 3 year old grand kids.
LockBot works with the PowerAmp lockscreen widget, except with the direct unlock setting in PowerAmp. So when I am running PowerAmp I have to unlock twice, which is how I had it setup with the stock lockscreen.
I have widgetlocker, but it irritates me how the first time I try to wake my phone up, the stock lock screen is there and the phone immediately shuts back off. I'll try nolock when I get home, thanks for the info!
Edit: Worked like a charm.

Hi,
Widget Locker is really good however the Home Screen bypasses the security. Howevr you must use the inbuilt lock for it to work. But note, if you have a widgetlocker background for example black then when you go to unlock it you will see your homescreen background which doesnt really fit in? if you know what i mean?
LockBot Pro was really good and my preferred choice however that too bypass security. Even though it has its own Inbuilt Lock. Pressing the Home gets rid of it...apparently it say's its fixed but you can still press the Home and you're in....
---
I downloaded Lock 2.0 which has a inbuilt Lock 4 Digit Pass. Which is what I want however I can't move the slider down. ?? the background pictures shows correctly but then the slider is like half way down the screen.. does anyone have a idea how this works??
Thanks
I didn't like NoLock because the volume and camera keys bring the phone back to life.
I found Screen Mode Widget Lite overcame that problem.

never faced an issues with widgetlocker
I'm using LCD density changer and have ticked the save as system density-box. Despite this, the correct density doesn't load on boot. Any ideas on what might be the problem? Using 200 as saved value.
Rooted KE2 kernel with GINGERBREAD.XWKE1 build.
Sent from my disappointing GT - I9100
load lcD density, click bottom left menu to see settings page, choose "default density" and set it in there, then apply this same density in the main page, it should now keep it.
I stopped using this though as it causes camera problems and dialler and other progs dont fit on screen properly, I am hoping this is going to fixed in a cooked ROM, I'd leave it until then dude.
Thanks for the reply but selecting default density only fills in 240 in the number box. It's not a new menu or anything. I've tried reapplying the density several times and even Superuser says the app is granted access and then I get a window that says it's saved and will automatically load on boot.
Still, it doesn't work.

Probably worth asking the developer of the APP.
I've found some apps that set LCD density to be a little flaky too.
I just use Root Explorer now and manually edit the build.prop file, which is very simple. If you want to know how to do that then let us know.
Nitrality
Use Nitrality, it is working great! I also recommand a 200 dpi value.
hi guys, I'm using samsung galaxy s2 with Widgetlocker for screen locking, but everytime i reboot my phone, widgetlock requires me to unlock twice to see the home screen, i found once i reboot to the lock screen, the first time unlock screen is in tool mode(with menu button activate), then i unlock this screen, the second time unlock screen is the real unlock screen(with no button activate). i want 2 skip the first tool mode screen once i reboot, anyone can tell me how 2 do that?
I'm using WidgetLocker too, you can select the option to override the default Samsung lock at boot, however, you will still see the default Samsung lock for a few seconds when rebooting the phone, but it will go away pretty fast and WidgetLocker will replace it.

yup, i see it too, but the problem is after it overrides the default lock screen, i have to unlock twice to get to the home screen. btw, i'm using go launcher, i tried using ADWlauncher and LauncherPro, no this problem, it may caused by the launcher...
I'm using Easy-wake mode in WidgetLocker which disables default lockscreen. If you don't wanna use that just go to WidgetLocker's advanced settings and disable stock lockscreen, first option from the top
I'm getting the same problem easy wake mode doesn't help - you reboot the phone, it goes straight to widget locker as normal, then u unlock and it drops into tool mode, then u unlock from tool mode, to get to the launcher. However I have noticed that once you get to the launcher nothing displays - oh and something else, when you get to the tool mode it is only then the app requests superuser permission. Very strange.
I'm using Go Launcher Ex as well....
And something else I've noticed that after all this happens, when you deliberately go into tool mode, the menu button no longer works so I now can't get to the settings to submit a bug report
Infact I've had to uninstall and go back to the main lock screen for now until this is fixed...
I have no problem with WidgetLocker, but i gotta agree there are so many settings in it and if you don't choose them correctly WidgetLocker doesn't work the way you want. Even though i can understand English pretty well, i'm having troubles figuring out which option does what
I recommend you go in settings > manage app, delete all the widget locker data, delete widget locker, then reinstall.
With default settings, and my screen lock deactivated in settings, it behaves as expected.

hi, how to set WidgetLocker as default?
when i press the power button, i always need to unlock for 2 times. 1 time for widgetlocker, and 1 time is default screen lock..
Having the exact same issue. I am also using GoLauncher, so maybe there's the problem??
It is very frustrating as I really like this lock screen replacement.

Same here using Go Launcher that's why i use Go Lock screen now pretty slick with Sense theme even though less tweakable...
Try WL Beta 2.2.2+
Using WL 2.2.1 on rooted SG2 never had this issues so far on any firmware. At moment Im on kj3 Dutch. Search in XDA there is a beta WL came out last week or so you may want to try this.
I'm using GoLauncher and GoLocker, and sometimes the standard lock screen appears, and then after I drag that away the GoLocker lock screen comes up! I downloaded the app 'NoLock' which fixed the problem perfectly, until I restarted my phone and now the standard lock screen comes up every time I lock my phone!
Solution??
Thanks!
PS: yes, I have GoLocker set as default lock screen...

I didn't have much success with GoLocker.
Give MagicLocker a shot (free)
I actually really liked Widget Locker the best but it is a paid app
I'd also make sure I only had one installed at a time to ensure permissions you've allowed were not causing conflicts.
I have tried several apps that does that but nothing met my expectation.
I settled with the stock one.
Download a jkay theme or supported theme and choose the no lockscreen in its settings.. that's what i use and the stock lockscreen doesn't come up on start up.. or you can also try disabling lockscreen in the security settings..

I've scoured the internet for hours, still no answer.
I have Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, and I want to change my lock screen so that it isn't just what the home wallpaper is. This is what I do:
Gallery->picture I want->menu->more->set as->lock screen wallpaper
I'll then size the picture, and select, "save". Then the player says that it is setting the wallpaper and then the window goes away. I assume that means it's set it. However, when I go to the lock screen, nothing has changed.

Have you tried using different lock screens? When I tried that it didn't change my pattern lock background, but it did change when I switched to the default 'swipe glass to unlock' lockscreen.

That worked! Thanks so much!
I really wish I could use my pattern lock with it, but hey, I've got nothing to hide.
Dude, you probably should of left it alone! Some of us have done it, but there is a bug where there is no option to change back to homescreen wallpaper! This means you can't have a live wallpaper on your lockscreen, but I don't like live wallpapers anyway so Im okay.
