I have been using lock screens as a quick guide to dates, appointments etc, I brought widget locker, all fine but it still keeps my normal lock screen on, I'm using a pin code to unlock and I think this is why, I don't use the default lock screen as it does not show and upcoming appointments even though they are ticked, any ideas?

I haven't tried this on the S yet, because I actually like the stock lockscreen, but are you rooted? I believe (at least when I used it on my X10) there was an option to bypass or to attempt to replace your lockscreen.
Or do you mean that you already tried that and it's still not going away?
Hmmm, widget locker doesn't give me any problems, just working perfect, the only time I see the default lock screen is after a reboot to type the password. other than that it is running very well.

The default lock screen shows if you have security feature eg pin code, I turn this off WL works fine. I'm not rooted. ..yet

Well I installed the locker again, to see if i could be any help
Apparently, to solve your issue I think you do need root, because there's a "auto-swipe" function that swipes past the old lockscreen when you have that extra pin security set up.

Yup , already seen that ( not rooted .. yet ) . Id rather have the pin code than none at all , so if I have to have two lock screens.
However it would be nice to the default lock screen to show appointments etc, everything is ticked in the options , but nothing is showing on the screen , just the time / date

I have looked and looked...I dont have a clue as to how to disable the animation on the widgets...
I couldn't find a setting to disable that either.

Remove clock, re add it and do not select animation

I had this same thing happen to my phone. When I got the phone, I never saw the weather animations. Since I don't use the big digital clock that comes default with the phone, I don't even use the HTC weather stuff on the phone.
This morning when I turned on the screen, there was like sun sprite that showed up in the top right hand of the screen. Thought it was a bit weird and I had never seen it before.
As the morning went by, I started to look to see what was causing it. Then I started seeing clouds as well.
I looked at a lot of "fixes" for this, and nothing worked.
Eventually, I ended up freezing the HTC weather stuff, rebooted the phone and the animation was gone.
Not really sure what caused it to start showing up in the beginning, but I had not seen it since I first got my phone last Thursday until this morning.
Attached shows what I froze using Titanium Backup. You need root to do this.

BTW, I am a weather nut, so I do look at weather on my phone. I have my own weather station and a number of standard and mobile sites etc... I just don't ever use the HTC Weather stuff because I am more interested in MY stations weather rather than the generic weather in the area.
Has anyone got Samsung dive to work for the new S3?
I have set up the account etc but when I use the website to track my phone or call it etc nothing happens.
I am on the O2 network in London. Any help would be much appreciated.
I set mine up yesterday and it setup fine and all, but when I went to track it...it did indeed track the phone, but it said my phone as at my home address when I was sitting in McDonald's. So...not sure why it did that but that is far from accurate!!
Calling and locating it worked from me with the original firmware. After installing Omega I tried again and it still works.
I cant get it working. I go through the motions as per below:

Anyone who has managed to get this set up, at what point does that setting for on/off at the top become available please?

Probably silly question but have you slid the toggle to "ON" - I had that first time as well. Every time you slide the toggle over you have to re-enter your password again.
your 3G enable ?
I eventually got it to slide after various combinations of removing and re-adding the samsung account and ticking / unticking the location tick box

So I have been trying to figure out how to get rid of the double lock screen on this phone. (And many other phones). I want just the pattern lock but I am greeted with the ring lock before that. Or the galaxy nexus lock screen if I want that instead. (Rooted)
I have read about widget locker but I'm not sure if I want to go with that route. I just want the Samsung layout. Straight pattern or number code unlocking.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance. 996.

Delete htclockscreen.apk or something similar in /system/app an you would have the stock lock screen so it would be like the nexus or you could install a desensed rom. It isn't possible to do what you seek with the htc lock screen
My Stock Sense phone..
I downloaded MiHome and found this Lockscreen through MiLocker,
Downloaded Apex Launcher, Set it as my Home Launcher, then i downloaded Ice Cream sandwhich (theme) by KOVDEV
and i then downloaded Jelly Bean Live Wallpaper.

Hi, i put the fingerprint scan on my lock screen to show someone and now i cant disable it, as in I cant go back to not having any kind of lock, or just a swipe. I tried using the pattern lock and no luck. I use my phone for music in the car and i hate having to unlock it. I have never needed a lock for my phone before. Attached is a pic of the screen.

Go to settings, sound and display, then lock screen and change your lock screen security settings.
Figured it out. I deleted all credentials and came back.

Hello all how can i change the optins that my current lock screen has?
It has a microphone, a lock and the camera. How can i change the microphone with the Phone to get staight to contacts from lockscreen? I used to have another device which at lock screen had Phone, Camera and The Lock icon.
Is there a way to change it or should i get an app that has more features?
Unfortunatley Not
The Default lock screen is very limited in customisation unfortunately. You can't even set a custom wallpaper you are limited to the ones included with the phone. So simply no is the answer to your question.
As for using a different lock screen application, this would most likely disable fingerprint support and increase battery consumption.
All we can do is hope for more features with the next update.

I was able to set a lock screen wallpaper to be honest with you all i want to know if you can replace the microphone thing which is in the left corner that says swipe to voice command with for example a shortcut to contacts or something which was supported in previous android phone that i owned.

Yes you can change it, but not with the stock rom. You have to install the xposed framework and Gravity Box. Then you can change it in the Gravity Box settings
