[Q] Screen locking apps not working - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've tried many screen locking widgets in market, but most of them will make the screen off, but than immediately screen is turned on to the lock screen.
I'm using darksode pre-final, and widget locker.
Everything act the same when I disable widget locker.
Anyone have some ideas?

default Lock Screen

Hi could you tell me if is possible to remove the default lock screen on the SGS2 as its really annoying.
I have installed an app that i like called LockBot but the problem is i also use lock Screen Widget, so when i click on Lock Screen Widget my screen locks but when i wake it the default lock screen comes up then Lockbot comes up LOL
It would be grat if i could completly remove the default lock screen and just use LockBot instead.
Cheers mimic

[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.
Regards.

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!

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] Is it possible to change the lockscreen completely w/o the use of an app?

I am currently using 'Holo locker' as a lock screen and it's great - really love it. The only thing it is - is that it is an app. What it does is when you lock the screen (pressing the dedicated lock button) the phone locks and then unlocks (I have the sound enabled for the lock screen) and when I press the lock button to turn on the screen to unlock, I see the Holo Locker lock screen.
My question is am I able to change the lockscreen completely to the Holo Locker lockscreen? I always see the app in my task manager and when I go to click end all the Holo Locker app closes making the stock lock screen appear when I lock the phone.
Thanks
