I really wanted a fingerprint scanner with the pattern instead of pin! And I just figured out how, I simply set up my pattern and then switched to fingerprint and now if I swipe to open it requires the pattern.
I'm pretty satisfied with this phone seriously... With go launcher and a new set of animations plus a sexy honeycomb theme combo of black and blue... knock me down and call me susan.. thats a phone.

I Love one thing about iphones..
their lockscreens, not the lockscreen but the pincode idea they have.
i don't like typing my password in and pressing OK it takes too long, i'm just trying to unlock my phone...
The Android Style one where you slide across the dots is okay, but It gives away my password and all my friends know my pass lock thing lol
Is there any way to get the same iphone thing??
Use CM7 and check the quick unlock function in the lockscreen settings in the CM settings?

Also i want it just like the iphone thing like.. only 4 numbers, i dont want my password being 400 numbers that i'll forget a sec after i type em down.
In case anyone wants a honeycomb lock screen appearance:

works well on the atrix (i suggest resizing the text in the app's settings)
I've been waiting for this! Thanks

Works OK, but no fingerprint scanner support, and it actually bypassed my having to input an unlock code also. In other words, using this lock screen means no security.
I tried it a little while back, it unlocks very slowly. Looks kinda cool, but takes a few seconds usually to actually complete the unlock for some reason.
Anyone know a fix? The last used screen shows for a second right before lockscreen pops up on wake. This is decently annoying. And I do not want to enable pattern lock.
Thank you!
I get that too, but plan to change to Widget Locker soon anyway.
Question: Do you use a Launcher besides the default TWLauncher? If so, switch to TWL and set your wallpaper there too, then switch back and see if it still happens.
Same here. Its a bug of 2.3.3. Heard its gone with 2.3.4 but ain't sure.
On stock launcher.

Curious to know if this Locker actually works? ive tried go locker but it seems to randomly come up late when turning on the screen, no idea why..itl show stock lock screen but then show my go locker one a couple secs later..kinda annoying. Does this widget locker do the same?
Did you delete the htc lockscreen when you had go locker installed?
i did not, how do i do that? using Titanium?
never mind i found it thanks for the help
I've used GoLocker and Widget Locker. Widget Locker is 10x better, more smooth and it almost literally replaces the new lockscreen. it has about 10 built in lock themes that are pretty standard, including Ice Cream Sandwhich, Froyo, Gingerbread, Honeycomb.
I definitely recommend it's purchase if you're looking for a new lockscreen. It's also super-customizable.
Sometimes you do still have that delay when it switches to the lockscreen, but it's not nearly as bad as Go Locker. usually the lagged lockscreen happens if you turn the screen off then turn it on right away. If you turn the screen off and wait a couple seconds, it grabs the Widget Locker screen completely when you turn it back on.
I love Widget Locker. Bought it launch for the intro price.

And if you have root access you can enable root helper which basically makes it so there is no lag, Definetly worth it in my opinion.

I never knew this. Just goes to show you how much I sit down and explore the application settings.

Thanks! I didn't know this either. I had stopped using WL because of the lag. Will test drive it again!
The unlock button is at the top of the device, while the ring used to unlock it is at the bottom, which makes it tough to unlock the phone with one hand. Plus, my phone never unlocks itself in my pocket.
Is there a way to disable the sense lockscreen? I'd prefer avoiding a 3rd party solution like widget locker, but if that's the only way then so be it. Thanks.
i like the lock screen myself, but i totally agree with the sentiment. this "lightening of sense" crap sure feels like it became much more heavy-handed. its like all they did was take away option settings and remove customization options. boo sense 4
