[Q] Q - Disable Samsung Lock Screen? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I use WidgetLocker which is great. But occasionally the Samsung default lock screen pops up anyway, meaning I have to unlock WidgetLocker AND the Samsung Lock Screen to get into my S2.
How can I disable the Samsung Lock Screen? I've had a hunt through the apps in Titanium Backup to see if I can find it and freeze it but no luck.
Anyone know how to do this?

There is an option in Widget Locker to Disable the Stock lock screen.
Tried WL today, and now back with stock lock screen. Simplicity is better for me.
Regards.

default Lock Screen

Hi could you tell me if is possible to remove the default lock screen on the SGS2 as its really annoying.
I have installed an app that i like called LockBot but the problem is i also use lock Screen Widget, so when i click on Lock Screen Widget my screen locks but when i wake it the default lock screen comes up then Lockbot comes up LOL
It would be grat if i could completly remove the default lock screen and just use LockBot instead.
Cheers mimic

[Q] Any way to get rid of glass lock lockscreen?

Hi all,
I was wondering if there was a way to get rid of the glass lock lockscreen on my SGS II. I am using a replacement lock screen, widget locker and also use NoLED.
I find that when I receive a NoLED notification upon waking the phone I will have the glass lock screen which I need to unlock and then widget locker to unlock after that.
Is there any way to remove the glass lock screen altogether?

only way to remove the lockscreen would be to use a Custom ROM which has a different lock screen, due to how android works though there is no way to properly disable the lockscreen, Although Lock replacement apps can work around it i dont think Noled has that ability.
Custom roms ...Widget Locker..you can force the stock app never to open ...works for me ..
Delete noled and use missed it, put that widget on your home screen ..probelm solved ..
Here's my widget locker screen ....

Evo 3D Rooted Remove Weather Lock Screen

Hey,
i have a evo 3d and even before i rooted it and put a custom rom on it, i wanted to remove that weather lock screen that always comes up when you power your phone on. The one that has phone mail camera messages icons and the Current weather, and you then have to drag a circle to the middle. That is the screen i want to remove or disable.
How can i do this with a rooted or stock phone?
I have seen the no lock app and the ScreenMode App which DO remove the Lock screen im talking about, but they ALSO REMOVE the security Pin / Pattern Lock screen also (which i want to retain.)
As it is now, i have to go through 2 lock screen when i power up my phone- The Weather Lock screen i speak of above and want to remove/disable - and the 2nd lock screen is my Pin/Pattern Lock screen which i can enable or disable via Settings->Security->Device Lock.
Please help me remove the weather lock screen,
tks
Widgetlocker is your answer
there's a couple ROMs in the dev section that have removed it, and are using the aosp lockscreen, go check them out.
Just go to setting personalize lock screen and change it to whatever you want no root needed

You have 2 options. You can go into system/data and rename HTCLockscreen.apk to HTCLocksreen.bak (rather than deleting it, in case you ever want it back). Or you could use Titanium Backup to uninstall HTCLockscreen
Widget Locker now gives me its locker screen, which is then followed by my Pattern lock screen (which i need, i only want the pattern lock screen).
If i go to Settings->Personalize (nothing happens, as in i get no options to choose), it just brings me back to the home screen.
I have Titanium Backup Pro and removed HtcLockScreen.apk and it removed it sucesfuly, but now the default Google Lock screen (with the lock on one side, speaker on the other) and you slide the lock to the right to unlock it.
Is there a way to keep WidgetLocker running, but set it to NO lock screen. Normally you would just un-check "Enable Widget Locker" in WidgetLocker's settings but doing this makes the home weather lock screen reappear.
or is there a way to disable the Google lock screen and keep the Pattern Security lock screen (this is how i had it on my EVO 4g)
Thanks for the help guys!

Hold your finger on the weather widget for about 10 seconds (untill the *trash* pops up at the bottom) and drag the sucker into the trash.
Took me all of the first day I owned this phone to kill that POS.

[Q] WidgetLocker full screen slider?

I'm looking at using WidgetLocker to replace the lockscreen on the Note. But one of the things I love about the default lock screen is that I can slide my figer anywhere on the screen to unlock it.
Is there anything like that with WidgetLocker or any way to configure it?
Yes I've been looking for that too...hopefully someone will have a suggestion.
