[Q] Is there any way to replace the SGS2 lockscreen with... - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

... the standard Android lockscreen?
Coming from Stock Android 2.2 lockscreen on my Hero (was using FroydVillain) the SGS2 lockscreen is really a big annoyance and I'd like to replace it with stock Android lockscreen. Is that possible ? (the phone is rooted)

Im not entirely sure, but I think there is an app you can get from the Market place called Widget Locker. You can customise your own Lockscreen doing that. I guess you could make it look like Stock Android if you wanted.

[Q] How can I get this custom lockscreen + launcher?

First of all, I know that this is running on a different device (I guess it is a Desire variant) and I also understand that this probably means that this launcher+lockscreen are only for 480x800 devices. But i thought someone would know some more information about it:

Basically, it has a different style of lockscreen (and it displays the time in an interesting way, for example EIGHTforty) and then has a similar style for the UI.
Can anyone help me out? If this launcher is not available for the Hero, then is it maybe for the Legend or the normal Desire (not the HD), or perhaps the ZTE Blade or the Samsung Galaxy S? That's all the android phones I have, so here's hoping someone knows more about this. I am not interested in the ROM this guy is running, but simply the custom UI/launcher and lockscreen.
Thanks in advance.
I know that clockr (available on the market) would display the time like that and using widget locker you could put that on your lockscreen? I think he is using a modded widgetlocker.. Mod data for modding widget locker can be found seaching ( WidgetLocker Mods Custom Lockscreens XDA.
the status bar could be themed using the gingerbread theme for the hero available in the themes and apps part..
widgetlocker and clockr area abailable on the market.. another one called TYPOCLOCK may be better...
Seems like LauncherPro and Widget Locker. He does a lot of mods for these apps, most of which can be found on the LauncherPro forums (currently down) or on his site - http://www.theultralinx.com/

[Q] Problem with Android stock lockscreen

I have two phones: HTC Wildfire S (Stock ROM 2.3.5) and HTC Desire C (Nameless ROM 4.0.3)
Both of them have HTC Sense at the moment.
I removed HtcLockscreen.apk and now I have default Android lockscreeen.
The problem is that the lockscreen appears when I get incoming calls and it is very frustrating.
I don't have configuration menu for that lockscreen.
I don't want any installable locker applications, I want default Android lockscreen.
Any help will be well appreciated.
This is a known issue with sense roms. The dialer apk calls the lock. Only way around it is to use an AOSP based rom

Install a custom rom or use go locker which is best lockscreen app

That is debatable. I wont advice any go apps.
Thank you for the answers.
I'm using Holo Locker at the moment and it's good.

[Q] dashclock to 4.1

Hi.just bought sgs III 4g.
Just rooted and installed sammy based custom rom 4.1 something and noticed that i cant install dashclock.
I had it in my sgs II 4.2.2.
So is it possible to someone port it to 4.1?
probably not, since 4.1 is outdated
maybe yes.but there is just too many issues in 4.2.2.
like what?
Lock screen widgets were introduced in 4.2 onwards....so i dont think its possible to get dashclock on any phone running version 4.2>.
Hope this helped.
DashClock is a replacement lock screen clock widget for Android 4.2+. It also exposes additional status items called extensions.
Like Google Play says, it is for Android 4.2+

yes i know.i have it in my sgs II..
so what issues does 4.2 have?
Dashclock 4.1
What if I don't want it on my lock screen but I just want it on my homescreen? can it be ported?
I'm looking for a 4.1 version as well for use as a homescreen widget. I get that the lock screen (why anyone would want this?) portion isn't available on 4.1 but why not the home screen widget? I love dashclock on my Nexus 10 and really want it on my S3.
it's an old thread, but just as a workaround, install this: better dashclock widget it works for android 4.0 and later

[Q] Lockscreen

Hi there. Noob to Android so be kind to me! Is there a way to get a fully functioning AOSP lockscreen on Sense? I tried renaming HTC lockscreen and it does work somewhat. But I can't add targets or change the widget.
GE 3.2
Yeah honestly this was one of the main reasons why I flashed the GE 3.2 rom from Android Revolution. I just love the lockscreen. Only things I miss in sense are the camera and the gallery. If you find anything out let me know.

Your best bet would be rooting, using the Xposed Framework and something like the HK Theme Manager or Xtheme Engine to make significant changes to the look of the system. These tools work well on most devices, but it can be hard to theme stock HTC roms as they have a very different theming structure vs most devices and generic theming tools can only go so far. Other than that, best you could do without a rom (or root) would be a different launcher that either hides the status bar or comes with it's own (have only seen an iPhone looking launcher with that function) or hide the status bar and figure out how to make something like Zooper Widget to help create your own little section at the top for the clock and battery status - though this stuff would only work on the home screen.
If you REALLY want to change stuff, the best option is a rom and there's really not much getting around it without compromises.
