How do I use toggles / quick compose SMS from lockscreen? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

This is probably a really dumb question but my search on Google didn't help me. I am on serendipity 8 and am wondering how can I control the toggles without unlocking?
I also want to be able to quick compose text from the lockscreen. I've tried handcent and go SMS but can't activate the quick compose functions unless I unlock the screen with my password.
Is there any way to do these things?
Thanks and sorry if its been covered I just can't find anything.

Anyway to be able to drag down the notification bar in widget locker while at lockscreen? I seem to have it enabled (not disabled anyway) but unless I'm in tool mode I can't pull down notifications

I'm able to use my notification bar while using widget locker. If your options are enabled I'd just reccomend rebooting your phone and trying it again. Also, check out the ice cream sandwich lockscreen theme very nice

I've been using Agile lock, able to pull down the notification bar and answer phone/emails/texts without unlocking. It also has 4 icons that you can drag to unlock and will go directly to those apps.
Ripple lock is from the same developer, does the same thing but has a different layout for the icons on the lock screen.
* It looks like you can't get Agile lock free anymore (I downloaded free a few weeks ago). Ripple lock is still free.

Lockscreen replacement on EC01

Anyone else not able to override the stock lockscreen with their lockscreen replacement? I use GOTO Lockscreen and when I set it up it still goes to the stock lockscreen first, then GOTO. This is the first Rom I've had this issue with. Any help would be appreciated.
I had that problem with goto, I emailed their support and was told it is the way the program operates, because the program does not actually replace the lock screen but works over top of it.

Use a root program on the market to disable the actual lockscreen.

I use the power control plus app, it has a widget that you can control most everything with.
You can disable this issue in agile lock settings. Look got the double lock section, and pick one that works with your phone.

[Q] Completely remove lockscreen?

I removed the sense lockscreen, and themed my phone like WP7. I even got the WP7 lockscreen, but unfortunately, it doesn't seem to overlay the android lockscreen. The default swipe to left/right one.
I've tried "No Lock" and a couple other lockscreen disabling apps (Free ones...). I also have widget locker, which managed to disable the lockscreen, but only when widget locker itself was active.
So my question is, how do i disable the android lockscreen?
There's an option in leedroid tweaks to disable the lockscreen

The Best Screen Lock App

My wish is that someone would make a Screen Lock App and maybe some has, if not I think this a great idea, of course.
1. It must show any missed income calls, messages and emails.
2. Time and weather.
3. Circle when long pressed to swipe outside of circle to open.
4. Customizable App selection; the ability to add a few apps around the circle to choose from, but if not chosen swipe outside of the circle to opens.
5. Select a random picture everytime you turn on your phone from a directory of your choice.
I think that's a tall order my friend, but you can try Widget Locked and see if you get some or all of those things you're looking for...

Yes, WidgetLocker is great. It allows to add homescreen widgets on it. Plus, it has many themes to launch apps (ICS, Sense, iPhone).
I'd like to add more: Install "Tesla Unread" to get missed call, SMS and Gmail counts.
Yeah, Widget Locker pretty much does all of that minus Live Picture wallpaper.
Try Go Locker from Play Store

You'll have to install Go Launcher EX to use it. Just to tweak lock screen usability, changing home launcher is an overkill..
I'm gonna suggest, as others here have, Widget Locker. I've always been running widget locker since I first had an android phone and have never used anything else because it does the job perfectly. Obviously, it's best feature is the customization available for it. Every few days I'm changing the layout of my lockscreen, just so it's something new

You could try using widget locker combined with minimalistic text integrated with tasker. That might give you what you want.

[Q] Quick Panel Toggles

Maybe someone ever created the same theme, but still i wanna know the answer. Maybe someone knows how to disable that thing, when you pull notification bar down, and toggles start moving to the start(till it gets to 1st toggle). I don't know why, but it is so annoying for me
I am using FoxHound ROM at the moment, but that thing is there as well. Can you help?
If you're on the ELKC version of Foxhound you can reduce the number of toggle buttons in the settings.
5 or less will stop them moving.

you could also search for 15/23 toggle mod for stock Samsung rom. this mod gives you the option to rearrange the toggles or deactivate some of them.
when you open the notifications the toggles do not slide so annoying slowly.
