Im using widgetlocker and about every 10th unlock instead of showing WL, it shows the stock lockscreen. I tried No Lock, but that didnt work either. Any help would be appreciated.

There is an option in the WL to disable the stock lock screen, i used it b4. Now i have no lock screen using No lock to save some battery. It goes straight to home screen after power on/off

I use that option, it still sometimes goes to the stock lockscreen

[Q] anyone who uses widgetlocker having this problem?

hi guys, I'm using samsung galaxy s2 with Widgetlocker for screen locking, but everytime i reboot my phone, widgetlock requires me to unlock twice to see the home screen, i found once i reboot to the lock screen, the first time unlock screen is in tool mode(with menu button activate), then i unlock this screen, the second time unlock screen is the real unlock screen(with no button activate). i want 2 skip the first tool mode screen once i reboot, anyone can tell me how 2 do that?
I'm using WidgetLocker too, you can select the option to override the default Samsung lock at boot, however, you will still see the default Samsung lock for a few seconds when rebooting the phone, but it will go away pretty fast and WidgetLocker will replace it.

yup, i see it too, but the problem is after it overrides the default lock screen, i have to unlock twice to get to the home screen. btw, i'm using go launcher, i tried using ADWlauncher and LauncherPro, no this problem, it may caused by the launcher...
I'm using Easy-wake mode in WidgetLocker which disables default lockscreen. If you don't wanna use that just go to WidgetLocker's advanced settings and disable stock lockscreen, first option from the top
I'm getting the same problem easy wake mode doesn't help - you reboot the phone, it goes straight to widget locker as normal, then u unlock and it drops into tool mode, then u unlock from tool mode, to get to the launcher. However I have noticed that once you get to the launcher nothing displays - oh and something else, when you get to the tool mode it is only then the app requests superuser permission. Very strange.
I'm using Go Launcher Ex as well....
And something else I've noticed that after all this happens, when you deliberately go into tool mode, the menu button no longer works so I now can't get to the settings to submit a bug report
Infact I've had to uninstall and go back to the main lock screen for now until this is fixed...
I have no problem with WidgetLocker, but i gotta agree there are so many settings in it and if you don't choose them correctly WidgetLocker doesn't work the way you want. Even though i can understand English pretty well, i'm having troubles figuring out which option does what
I recommend you go in settings > manage app, delete all the widget locker data, delete widget locker, then reinstall.
With default settings, and my screen lock deactivated in settings, it behaves as expected.

hi, how to set WidgetLocker as default?
when i press the power button, i always need to unlock for 2 times. 1 time for widgetlocker, and 1 time is default screen lock..
Having the exact same issue. I am also using GoLauncher, so maybe there's the problem??
It is very frustrating as I really like this lock screen replacement.

[Q] How to remove screen lock

Can someone help me in getting rid of the lock screen? I wan to use my phone just after pressing the home screen no additional step by swiping the lock screen.
Very simple, install No Lock. It does what it says.
Working on Cognition 1.31,
Cheers.

I installed it, but still not working is there any tricks?
A bit weird way, more of a bug in the lock screen, is to hit the home key 4 times, the lock screen doesn't prevent the voice system from being activated. So you can hit once to activate the screen, two quick to enable the voice talk, and then once more to return to main screen. Bad way, but working.

Turn off screen, but don't lock phone

Is there any way (add on app or otherwise) to be able to turn off my phone manually with the power button and have it not lock (so that when I turn it back on the screen is on where I left it without the lock screen). And where I can manually lock if I want.
Ideally too something that won't automatically lock (just turn off) when the screen delay is reached.
This is driving me crazy!
There is an app for that, it's call No Lock. I used to use it on my Desire HD running CM7 rom. I don't know if it will work for sense tho.
No Lock works great... I have it on my 3D.. and used it on my Evo4G, and my wife has it on her Shift 4G. Just be careful with it because the volume up/down buttons will also turn the screen back on, but you'll never need to worry about the lockscreen ever again if you run that app.
Thanks, I just installed No Lock. It is okay, but I would really like something that includes a simple widget to lock the screen -- like I could just press it and the built in lockscreen would lock the phone. I realize I can use the included widget and turn off No Lock and then the phone locks, but it just seems like an extra step.
Maybe use the widget and put a shortcut to screen off next to it?... Or somethin like dat

You could use Tasker and make a widget that you can run that will turn off No Lock, and then lock the phone / turn off the screen

[Q] Eradicating standard lock screen?

I'm using GoLauncher and GoLocker, and sometimes the standard lock screen appears, and then after I drag that away the GoLocker lock screen comes up! I downloaded the app 'NoLock' which fixed the problem perfectly, until I restarted my phone and now the standard lock screen comes up every time I lock my phone!
Solution??
Thanks!
PS: yes, I have GoLocker set as default lock screen...

I didn't have much success with GoLocker.
Give MagicLocker a shot (free)
I actually really liked Widget Locker the best but it is a paid app
I'd also make sure I only had one installed at a time to ensure permissions you've allowed were not causing conflicts.
I have tried several apps that does that but nothing met my expectation.
I settled with the stock one.
Download a jkay theme or supported theme and choose the no lockscreen in its settings.. that's what i use and the stock lockscreen doesn't come up on start up.. or you can also try disabling lockscreen in the security settings..

Remove "Swipe screen to unlock?"

I have the stock 2.3.6 rooted on my gNote. Is there any way to remove or disable the "Swipe screen to unlock" screen? I have Go Locker installed which has a nicer, configurable screen but for some reason the stock "Swipe screen to unlock" appears so I have to swipe it, and then swipe again on the Go Locker screen. I tried AntiLock but that didn't seem to resolve it!
The only way I found to stop the default swipe screen was to install No Lock. However, that might disable Go Locker from running as well. Try it though. Hopefully it works out well for you.
I use Widgetlocker. It's pretty cool. You can use multiple unlocks to go directly to an app and more customization.
Works for me.

I had a custom rom'd Skyrocket and Infuse for some time so I don't remember the stock behavior. The 'extra' lock screen after Widgetlocker's lock screen was bugging me as well. There is a lockscreen timeout setting in display/settings that I don't remember seeing in my other phones. If you exceed the threshold timeout period, then you will get the lock screen to enter your pin/pattern. But if you are within the timeout, then you will get the regular 'swipe' screen instead. I've tried a couple of WL settings including the one that says 'auto swipe' but that screen remains.

If, by any chance, you have the JKay Deluxe Setting option on your custom ROM, then, you also need to select no lock option on that (Golden Android app).

Yeah, WidgetLocker can't swipe that screen for you yet, but I found if you set it to IMMEDIATELY lock so the lock (pattern, pin, whatever) is always shown, you only get WidgetLocker followed by the lock. If you don't want the lock every time you turn on the phone (like myself), Delayed Lock will fix that, I have it set to "5 minutes after power off".
However, I've noticed a few times I've unlocked and the lock did NOT show, so I'm paying closer attention to it. I've twiddled a few settings in Delay Lock, maybe that'll help. This setup worked perfect on my Nexus One.
