Hey, I am looking for a way to always keep the "slide unlock" always on even when using a pattern/PIN/password lock. I am using CommRom 2.1 and I like it. Is there a way to add this to this ROM? Which other ROMs include this feature?
Why?
Because it enables direct to dial, direct to messaging, and (with CommRom) a custom message to appear in case my phone is lost, like my email.
Thanks.
I want the exact opposite and I am running CM7, I have to slide to unlock and then type my PIN in.

Hey, i was wondering if any of the devs here know of a way to make the phone go directly to the pattern unlock screen when it wakes. I really hate how enabling pattern unlock makes an extra step to unlock the phone (i.e. unlocked with the regular sense lock screen, then drawing the pattern). I can't be the only one who this bothers.
I used to have an epic 4g and when pattern unlock was enabled, the stock lockscreen would simply get disabled so there was only 1 step to unlock the phone. Does anyone know if this would be possible with a sense rom.
Also, ive tried disabling the sense lock screen all together (It then defaults to the AOSP lock), but you still need to slide to unlock, then enter the pattern.
Thanks everyone
I am looking for this as well. AntiLock app might work but I haven't tested it yet.
On stock Gingerbread, when receiving a phone call, I just pushed the button to answer or ignore. Now on CM7 I have to slide to unlock in order to answer or ignore. I have checked all the Cyanogen Settings for the lock screen and phone and there is no way to diasble this. I also use "No Lock" from the market but it looks like there is no option to change this cm7. Can anyone help?
When screen is locked and phone rings, you slide to answer. When you are on your phone with the screen in, you push button to answer. I havnt been on cm7 for a while, so I could be wrong. That's how it is in homebase

No, you have to slide to unlock whether the phone is awake or sleeping. After researching for a while I can't understand why this would be stripped in cm7 when they seemed to fix it in Gingerbread and even Froyo I think. Seems like a lot of people were complaining about it on other message boards. I just wonder if it was intentionally stripped out of cm7 along with the ability to ignore with text response.
Uhmm.. Mine works fine. No issue like that.don't need to unlock to answer.

Thanks for the reply but could you be more specific? Are you running the Cyanogen Mod 7 beta ROM and if so are you saying that when your phone rings that you don't have to slide to answer i.e just push the answer button, or are you saying that you dont have to swipe to wake up your device and then swipe to answer?
Yep running latest cm7 available for atrix. Didn't really changed anything regarding the locksreen.. though i do have gestures enabled along with the regular lockscreen.
I only have to slide to pickup the phone.. never needed to slide to unlock.. then slide to pick up..
I think you misunderstood my original post. I do not have to "slide to unlock" to wake the phone in order to "slide to answer". Just like you, all I have to do is slide to answer. I want to change it where I can just push the "answer" button to answer the call like you could in stock Gingerbread.

not sure if this does what you want it to do, but i replaced my caller ID screen with it because the stock one wasn't compatible with my density levels.
anyways, check it out, it's pretty customizable: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.androminigsm.fscifree&hl=en

Well you need to reword this..
You can try and use a different dialer in the market. Personally, Sliding makes more sense to me as you don't wanna accidentally pick it up or hang it up on a press..
Maybe widgetlocker will let you add extra sliders to your lock screen.
I came looking for porn, didnt find it, but figured while I was here I could ask a question:
Let me first say I sync my phone to my works Exchange and they force some security settings on my phone, like the pincode to unlock the phone. On my Desire HD and GalaxyII I had WidgetLocker installed so I could control Spotify without unlocking the phone and typing the pin.
On the Razr it kinda looks like the standard lock screen would let me add widgets to it, but I cant figure out how so i started using WidgetLocker on this as well.
However, when I am in the widget locker screen and "slide to unlock" it just takes me to the standard "lock screen" and i must slide again and enter a pin code.
I assume WL have disabled the lock screen on the Desire and Galaxy, but cant on this?
Any ideas?
All i want is to be able to control Spotify without typing the pin and unlocking the phone, so if you have any other suggestion on how to get this done I would love you long time for it
Download the free app "no lock". It should take care of your issue. I use WL on my RAZR and have the No Lock app set to disable the stock lock screen. Works great.
This is most likely one of those "simple problem, complex fix" kind of questions.
On the Android Pin Lock screen, after entering the 4 digit number you have to hit OK before it unlocks. I want to remove this need. If the number I enter is correct, I do not want to have to hit OK to unlock the device. I'm not above doing some tinkering with my phone, but wouldn't know where to start. Maybe there's even an existing mod to do it? I can't be the only one who finds it annoying.
Edit: My phone is the Samsung Vibrant T959. I use 2.2 and 2.2.1 ROMs.
I know that there are other lockscreen apps, but I do not want to use any and want to stick with the stock Android one.
TL;DR - How do you remove/bypass the need for OK press on the Pin Lock?
I have the same issue with my rooted Droid Bionic 4G. Custom ROM's like Cyanogenmod 7 have this fixed in their versions...anyone have the answer?
Hi. When I received the phone, out of the box security was not enabled and I was able to unlock the screen only by sliding the pad lock UP on the lock screen.
This worked well for me as I could read all notifications while locked, without unlocking the phone.
I then tried out the other security methods including Pattern. Didn't like it and wanted to go back to slide to unlock.
Under Security there is not a Slide to Unlock option.
Now, if I leave it as No Security, anything unlocks the screen, even a tap.
How do I get the original pad lock Slide to Unlock feature back?
A hard reset?
Sorry if this has been answered before, I did a quick search and didn't find a thread.
Thanks.
Set it to wallpaper lockscreen. Personally I use productivity so my messages go on lockscreen
Btw option is under settings / personalization / lockscreen type

Same Issue
Hello I am currently having the same issue with my lock screen. I hadn't even realized that switching the lock screen type was the reason, but it makes sense. Did you find a way to fix it? The above poster's method did not work for me.
Thanks for putting this problem in words!
So it looks like this is an issue that happens whenever you have an accessibility setting enabled as described here. This goes for any accessibility settings... Can someone confirm if this still happens with other Sense ROMs or if this only happens with stock?
