Upon unlocking phone, in the background, it is like beaming sunlight, then goes away.
I have recently rooted, and tried a few ROMS and went back to stock. Anyone have any idea what this is? It did not do it before. Doesn't bother me, I just cannot seem to identify it from Ti or Running programs.

lol. Its a function of Sense and the Sense clock widget. It has the weather and gives you a nice weather screen animation on initial unlock and going to the home screen. Its can only be found and run on sense roms.

Hey guys. I'm running Aloysius V12 and have been using Beautiful Widgets. Love the look and it's fairly reliable as far as the time/date/weather go, but whenever I plug my phone into the computer, the style reverts to stock. I am very particular about the way it looks, because the way I have it now looks quite good with my wallpaper, but when it reverts, it doesn't match up well. Not really a big deal in the grand scheme of things since I just have to restart the widget, but curious to see if anyone knows why the USB plug-in would make any difference. I have had this issue on BW 2.998 and 2.999. As a side note, does anyone know how to change the date font? Changing the clock font has no bearing on it, and neither do weather skins. Thanks in advance.

Beautiful widgets says, in its own documentation, that it doesn't work with SenseUI.
This is partially true. It works, sometimes, and for a while. my buddy has a small widget on his home screen that he has no troubles with, but I've used the brightness widget, a home screen one, and others.
I've had Sense randomly force close on me (MANY MANY times), when tapping the widget (or sometimes for seemingly no reason at all - presumably when the widget updates), and so on and so forth.
They 'Work', but they aren't reliable, that I've seen. I haven't used them since like 2.7 or so.
That's odd that the font changes when plugging it in.
I've been to their site a couple of times, but guess I didn't run across that. I asked this same question on android forums and the response had to deal with BW skins are saved on the sd card and once it is plugged in, then it doesn't have access to them anymore. I'm not sure if this is the exact reason, but makes as much sense as anything else I've thought of. Too bad it's not more reliable because the only competition that I have seen is Weather Widget donate. I don't have anything particularly against that one, but just can't customize it get the look I am going for...
so, got my sprint tp2 running 6.5. i disabled sense and tf3d bc i want the simplicity of using the Easy Today Launcher (places whatever shortcuts I want on the today screen with no other fancy things going on).
in keeping with the simple theme, also installed Daniel Herieira? (sp) LockDevice (a simple lock slider which creates a clean screen with my wallpaper, the lock slider and a digital clock with the date).
since she boots at about 110 ram..before leaking down thru the day, Id like to NOT install any of the home screen custom ROM's that i believe all require to have the memory hog sense enabled.
all i want is a simple analog clock that i can either enable as a plug in in various skins/locations for my Today screen, or better yet, to replace the digital clock on my lock screen. looked everywhere, cant figure it out. does anyone have any suggestions?? am i posting in the wrong place? thanks in advance
so what you're all sayin by not sayin is that without running sense with cht, i cna't do it??? hello hello?? bueler bueler??

Nobody has said that (or anything at all).
It's most likely that nobody knows of a lock screen with an analogue clock. It is possible for one to be written though, I guess just nobody has
This question may be hard to explain, so if I am doing a poor job at explaining, please let me know, but right now I have a rooted Thunderbolt (Das BAMF Remix 1.6.3) and I am using WidgetLocker. When I unlock my phone, I like how sometimes it just go straight to the homescreen with no transition, but sometimes it does that 'zoom out' transition where the screen gets smaller as it zooms out into the homescreen. I tried looking all over in the preferences of WidgetLocker but I cannot seem to find where I can make it so there is no transition and the lock screen goes straight to the homescreen... I also looked at my LauncherPro preferences to see if I can stop the homescreen from transitioning from the lockscreen (maybe that is where the problem lies). I could not find anything and was wondering if there was a way to make it so the lockscreen/homescreen do not transition when the phone is unlocked? Any help is appreciated - thanks!
Bump - if I need to clarify, let me know, because I sometimes do a piss poor job at making sense of my words, ha.
Hmm.. does it do that without widgetlocker?
It could possibly be just part of the structure of the Rom.
Mine, when I unlock, has the fade effect.
Would that be what you're talking about?

Possibly? It looks like when I unlock, sometimes it goes right to the homescreen, which I like, or sometimes it looks like the lockscreen background (which is different from the homescreen background, maybe I should have clarified that earlier, sorry) zooms away into the homescreen background, which looks awful. I feel like it is trying to transition, but since they are different backgrounds, it looks weird unless I can change that. Is that better or is my explanation still a little confusing?
From what it sounds like, its just the lockscreen app you are using, just having a different wallpaper. Have you tried changing both to the same or is it something else?
I believe I know what you're talking about with how the lockscreen seems to "slide" away so to speak?
It did that with me when I used lockscreen apps

Yeah, I am using WidgetLocker, which a lot of people told me was great, and so far I really love how customizable it is. I would like to keep it both different (I have a sort of theme going on and it wouldn't work right if they were different), but yeah, the lockscreen just sort of zooms away and the homescreen flies in (the background does not necessary fly in but the top notification bar and the icons fly into place). I feel that there is a way to make it so there is no transition or anything like that, but I cannot seem to find it, ha.
Not really sure. That's just how the system works I believe. It's basically an app transitioning to another app. (Which can be disabled in phone display settings)
So let me know how it goes because I have been considering about getting widget locker too haha.

Hmmm... Your post actually gave me an idea and I switched that Animations from "All Animations" to "Some Animations." I have no idea if this will work or not, but I will let you know.
EDIT:
"Some Animations" made it go away - thanks to everyone who helped!
Well, I'm a huge GO fanboy and GO Locker doesn't disappoint. I love it and I'd thought I'd share considering we have limited lockscreen options. I like the Fourkey Theme.

Looks nice! I love Go Launcher Ex so I might give this a try later!
Nice find! Works really well. Know of anyway to change the ugly stock wallpapers in them though? Lol

I noticed in Gallery there's drawable-hdpi (37) with all the image files in there. I suppose you could change #37, which is the background of the widget. I guess in theory you could customize any of those files to customize the locker. It's just a guess though and I haven't attempted to try to change anything though.
I wonder if this will eventually become a full blown WidgetLocker/Executive Assistant type replacement. Can you add widgets to this app? Now that would make this an awesome app!
Anyone else get the bonus feature of not being able to swipe homescreens from left to right every now and then unless you swipe the other direction first?
This would happen to me with GOLauncherEX fairly frequently on my GSII , and I have stopped using it because of that. Now I am back on stock TW4 with no issues.

FWIW, I've never had that happen to me once and I've been running Go Launcher EX on my SGS2 almost since the day I got it.
And I've been using Go Launcher as my go-to launcher app for quite a while now, across quite a few different Android phones.

Try switching to conservative governor. Might fix it.

I always use the conservative gov.
But I did a full wipe and reinstall today, so I'll check it out.
Update to the app today, lets you finally pick the background!
Does this let you put widgets on the home screen?
My biggest use for widgetlocker is to have a pandora widget and volume controls on my unlock screen so I can use it [in my workshop or garage] without needing to unlock every time.
Extract image from GO LOCKER ICS theme background
Hello all,
I recently installed GO LOCKER with an ICS and was wondering if I could use the locker background as the background for my phone as well?
Is there any way to extract the image from somewhere through a file manager?
Thanks in advance!
Hey all,
I recently downloaded an app called 3D PARALLAX BACKGROUND.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vinwap.parallaxwallpaper
Seemed like a cool and interesting thing, much like the new iOS feature. Background looked pretty awesome too once I was done installing...
Only problem is, it changed my lock screen to something else (I guess a default within the program) and no matter what I do, I can't change it back to stock.
I have tried uninstalling the app, restarting the device, changing lockscreen to every stock lockscreen available, etc but it still won't change back.
Super weird and it seems that I am the only person that has had this problem. I looked through the app reviews and nobody mentions it. Wondering if it's an HTC One problem... Running 4.2.2 Android Revolution 12.0
Does anyone have any suggestions? I have attached a screenshot of the lockscreen in question. It's a nice looking one at least, but I am not a huge fan of the functionality and I would rather have a 12-hour clock than a 24-hour one...
TL;DR App changed lockscreen, can't get the stock one back.

Well that was quick, I figured out it was a completely other app that was activated for some reason. Go Locker was the culprit. Problem solved
Good work bro
