But whenever i reboot my phone, my stock lockscreen will show up before it gets to widgetlocker, is this normal ?

It's normal, it takes time for the phone to recognize widgetlocker and its default settings.

[Q] Q - Disable Samsung Lock Screen?

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.

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!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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 + Beautiful Widgets Unlock Animation

I've an issue regarding the combination of the Beautiful Widget screen unlock animation and the widgetlocker app that I was hoping someone could give advice/pointers on. I'm using a Nexus S with Oxygen 2.3.1 ROM
I have beautiful widget on one of my homescreens with the unlock animation activated. I've also got Widgetlocker activated on top of the android pattern unlock. What I notice is that weather animation sometimes has issues appearing.
When I unlock the device, turn the screen off, and unlock the device very quickly, the animation does appear. But if I wait a few extra seconds before screen-unlock, the animation sometimes shows up.
If i use only widgetlocker or only the android pattern unlock, the animation always appears.
has anyone reproduced this issue or know a way around it? thanks!!
I've got the same issue. I use the pin lock, but same thing. It seems if you unlock quick enough, you can see the animation, but it disappears a split second later. Its like Widget Locker triggers the animation instead of the pin lock screen, and the animation is starting behind the scenes while i type in my pin. Your right though, if I turn the screen off, then unlock again right after, it works.
I think there are two issues here:
1. The Android unlock screen should trigger the animation, not Widget Locker
2. The animation does start, but the duration is set to 20 seconds, and it dies within 1 second.
I was hoping there was a Widget Locker setting that might compensate for this. I tried "root helper" to no avail. Also, there is a setting that says "Retain System Keyguard (not recommended. but may help interactions with other lockscreen-related programs)", no dice.
For what it's worth, I have a Samsung Infuse 4g running SGH_I997_UCKK4 Rom (a Samsung leak).
I'm using fold 3 fancy widget stoped working all together. So now I've installed beautiful widget a nd the unlock animations are not working at all. When I open the app I see the clouds moving so I know It should be working. I've cleaned the cache and still nothing any suggestions from anyone? Wish there was another app to have windshield whiper when it rains like fancy widget...

[Q] Stock Lockscreen not showing when phone is password protected

I've noticed that the stock lockscreen never shows up when the phone is protected by a password. When I turn on the screen, I am automatically prompt to enter my password without ever seing the lockscreen. The only time the lockscreen shows is when the phone is not locked.
I spoke with Samsung this morning and they said this is how it's supposed to work but I just think it's pretty weird to have it working this way. I'm coming from an HTC and the lockscreen always shows when you turn on the screen, whether the phone is protected by a password or not. Same thing on CM7.
So my question is as follows: Is there any way to force the stock lockscreen to show-up prior to being prompt to enter the password? The reason I'd like to have the lockscreen showing is that it gives you the possibility to see some notifications from the lockscreen, and launch the given application right away.
I know there are some lockscreen apps out there but the problem with them is that they often fail to launch (takes a few seconds before they kick in). Also, when the phone is still unlocked (I have a 5 mins delay prior to locking), I'd get to see two lockscreens back to back (app + stock), which is annoying.
Thanks!

[Q] All Lockscreen apps are laging

dear community,
i've tried all lockscreen apps on the market (go locker, widget locker ....) but always the same bug appears!
When I lock my phone and want to unlock it directly afterwards, i see the homescreen for about 3 seconds, and then the custom lockscreen appears! The lag is very annoying.
Is there a fix for it?
thanks.
push. i urgently need a fix.
