i dont have that option, im using the ASOP beta1 rom. i did a restore and its come back, but when someone phones me and i need to unlock it, it switches to the ball one. so when its sitting idle it will show the left to right slide bar. and now when someone calls its turns into the crap ball, the ball "the only way to decribe it" can be moved all over the screen and it zooms into the ball once you unlock, and its laggy ugly and ther is no need for it tbh lol any ideas?

Funny thing is that it LOOKS like only cyanogen settings are hidden. Before I did backup of cm settings and after restoring it (with titanium backup) I have my old locksreen(from previous rom, drop icon from center to any other place) and I have everything working from my cyanogen settings from previous rom, like torch in status bar, stop app via long-press.

If the problem's the lockscreen try a alternative on the market e.g widget locker if it's still bad i'd recommend using a different rom like CM7

i took some screen shots of what i mean, the first pic is what i have untill someone phones me, then it looks like the 2nd pic.

Unlock Screen Apps for X8

Hi Guys,
Anybody knows a usable unlock application for X8 Android 1.6?
I have tried these applications:
. Lock 2.0 - good idea, but unusable and buggy
http://www.androidtapp.com/lock-20/
. LockBot - too much RAM usage, * when you press home button LockBot goes to the backround
http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-jackdoit-lockbot-xjti.aspx
. Rotate Screen Unlock - usable, but slow, almost 2 sec while appears
http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-lefutura-rotateunlock-jCim.aspx
. nUnlock (lite) - easy solution with bug *
http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/tools/nunlock_htcf.html
My dream solution is the Pattern to Unlock method:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
A workable solution would be awesome!
Android 2.1 will solve my problem. Till then... have anybody found better apps than me?
the unlock pattern is standard on the x8?
Pattern unlock is already present in settings..
or did i misunderstand your query?
qsmyle I know of one application. no errors ... name is Simplylock

Yes, there is unlock pattern but it is not a screen lock app, just a security solution.
I need a screen lock method, replaced the original.

When screen are locked, the left bottom button doesn't inactive. Thats the problem.
Any new recommendations now when we have reached the year 2011?
Thanks for the list already given.
if you want a screen lock, on the market is one app, it's called lockbot
LockBot is awesome and its possible to set a own wallpaper
LockBot indeed. You can choose between iphone, galaxy S, x10, froyo or eclair unlockscreen style, or you can use all of them. It changes everytime you unlock your x8
Oww, lockbot is nice. Thanks for sharing

[Q] Mini apps tray modification, removal

I find mini apps tray (show / hide dock at bottom), with apps showed that I couldn't modify, quite annoying. Searched internet for solution - modifying it or removing it fully, but no success...
Does anybody have an idea how to remove or modify this tray?
Thanks.
I've no clue what you are referring to. "Mini Apps Tray" is a feature of Touchwiz UX 4.0 though.
Hehe, what you see is the apps you have used recently. Do some search on YouTube on Honeycomb and watch so you can see how honeycomb work and how you use it

Sorry, I obviously didn't explain it good. I'm not referring to left side pop-up bar that shows recent apps, but the downside one with taskbar, calendar, clock, mini music...

On the bottom in that pic? That is touchwiz.... hasn't been released yet. So unless you are sleeping with somebody at Samsung who hooked you up, I'm confused.
How do you have mini apps tray when its not released yet?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
To the direct left of the time display on the bottom bar, sometimes little notification app icons are shown there - kinda like in windows task tray. For instance, someone at bestbuy installed some speedometer app on the tab and it showed a little icon in that area. When you tapped it it said, enable gps for speedo to work (well I'm getting a little off topic) Anyway, I could not figure out how to get it out of there and it started to annoy me because it was a really ugly icon...
EDIT: Now that I reread the original post, it does seem like he is talking about the touchwiz app tray...
Am interested to know if there has been any progress with modifiying the Touchwiz Mini Apps tray. Is it possible to add Apps to it as I can't find a way to do it at the moment?
Thanks
ive tryed an failed dono bout anyone else though
you can remove them easily and romove the miniaps tray but i cant get anything to run as a miniapp or even put a shortcut there :L

you can get them to run because it is just more then adding an app to make it work. Samsung has kept this source to themselves. so we cant change those apps until they do.

Lock screen mod?

Hey guys,
Not sure if this is the right area, please feel free mods to move this post over to the right section.
Today I was at an event where taking pictures was very much needed. Not at all times however, so it meant a lot off "Phone on, lock pattern, camera, phone off, in pocket" etc. Unlocking the phone is slightly tiresome, however albeit essential for my workplace.
So! I've had a thought. Is there any current or possible modification(s) that can be made to the lock screen, when their is a PIN or pattern enabled, which could give access to certain apps straight from the lockscreen without the need to input the pattern or pin?
This would simply cut out the need to unlock the phone if all I need to so is shoot a video or picture. I also understand the need for their to be some form of extra security as a user could theoretically open the camera and then press the home screen and they are past the security however hypothetically speaking.. could this ever work?
I hope i managed to explain myself well enough there lol!!
Send from my i9100 ICS
There are plenty of lockscreens out there like milocker/magiclocker/widgetlocker that allow you to unlock straight to a camera/sms/phone, just don't think they work with a pin or pattern.
I use widgetlock from the market it can be customised to suit your every whim lol
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
milocker'm using now and it works pretty well that mentioned above are good options
Another vote for WidgetLocker here; it's really easy to add a widget to the lockscreen that launches your preferred camera app.
Brilliant lads thanks! Does widget locker allow lock phone generally with pattern/pin but access to camera without?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Yep +1 for wigetlocker from me.
Latest version is awesome compared to earlier ones.
I bought it ages ago and shelved it for jkay and go locker but I installed it again last week and it's really come a long way.
This was what made me take another look at it.

Just tested this - if you have PIN security set up then you still need to enter the PIN even if you're starting the camera app from the widgetlocker screen.
Hmmm.. might be time for me to look into some coding!

No, Go Locker requires Go Launcher to be installed.

I can't unlock my phone because landscape view doesn't show the entire grid

I'm currently using AOKP : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574718
My phone is stuck on the landscape view, and as a result I'm not able to unlock my phone since the full pattern grid is not shown.
Rebooting does nothing
I really appreciate any help or advice!! Thank you!

Hate to say it but you might need to boot into recovery and wipe data if a reboot didn't fix it.

This is so frustrating....but thanks for the note.
I don't even know how this should be possible.
How'd it get stuck in landscape mode in the lock screen?
Edit: editing this post because I found the option he must have checked to get this problem to occur. Its here. Horizontal lock screen option.

I thought I would add to this in case someone actually searches for this problem. I was just scrolling through the forums. Anyway, have someone call your phone. In-call, hit home key and you can get to whatever you need to to change settings (and they can hang up). If no one is available for this... kill yourself.. you have no friends... Just kidding.

Is this a real thing? Seems like a massive security hole if that is actually capable of being done on AOKP. What's the point of having security on the lock screen if it can be bypassed when in-call?
One more reason to stick with Samsung TW roms. On Semiv17, with lock screen security enabled, the home/back/search buttons are locked out if you answered a call from a locked state.

Question regarding spacing between icons

Hey guys,
Sorry for the bunch of questions in recent days. I'm new a this while being fairly compulsive. Ok so let's make use of the ability to make screen shot. In the picture below, apps on the left are from stock touch wiz, and the second set of icons (more to the right) are from the TW SIII mod from pale horse. As you can see, apps on the right have much more space between them then on the left. Is there anyway for me to make it so apps on the right have the same space between them than apps on the left? It is very obsessive of me I know.
Thank you
Install the Apex launcher. Then you can change the grid of your desktop to any spacing that suits you.
And this is for caring about icon spacing. . .

What did you do to fix this?
Another thing Apex can do is let you resize icons. Maybe that could help?
And you know the CDO picture was strictly a joke - not trying to do anything here but assist.
That was a good one ranger...LOL
And yes....we need a sense of humor around here once in a while....g
Right? You know sometimes you can get someone's undies in a bunch by just saying hi.
Ahah no worries I can take a joke. I embed up doing nothing. Apex had the same problem so I just took a deep breath and accepted things as they are.

I use SSLauncher, and do whatever I like with the homescreen(s). Spacing, resizable widgets, etc.... SSLauncher=freedom!
from the looks of your photo something was changed other then just icons. your homescreen indicators and wallpaper dont line up. you can try changing your screen density to something larger to fill in the gaps. stock is 320. i use apex like ranger recomended and hide icon labels then change grid size. i use 8x5 and this makes all my icons very close(i also use text for icons rather then pictures). you should play around with it. pro version also lets you resize and overlap widgets so you can get icons close but still have widgets look like they should.
