im looking for a lock screen alternative i've tried widget launcher and it's both a battery and resource hog any ideas
Try GO Locker? There was an issue with the home button (SGSII Exclusive) tho, not sure if they fixed it.
Ive heard go locker is the same as widget locker bit heavy any one else recommend go locker

Try Magiclocker. It's like the Miui lockscreen and it works very well. It has many options to customize your lockscreen as you like it.
try milocker.. its d best..

Last question. Flash isn't working for me. I know there r threads that say to go in the root and delete the apk. But I can't do that from the phone. I have the astro browser. Can u help me with this one too

Theres a fix that chingy put in his thread you should check on that I havent had a chance to fix it but it has something to do with deleting the flash that came with the phone and install flash from market and all should be well.
Got it. Thanks man. Any other cool themes and links?

Really? Which variant?
I use the 5 screen one and it's flawless. Haven't found a better launcher. I just wish it had landscape mode. Sometimes if I use WidgetLocker and it's in landscape mode, the SE Launcher reloads itself but in landscape mode. Aside from the icons not being placed properly it otherwise looks great.
Wish someone with enough skills could make a variant with landscape mode!
Works great. I think I like it better than the touchwiz one on here

no, its actually more laggy than blur.. haha. if it wasnt laggy i would use it. there is a jerk when you move across homescreens, kind of like when you have a LWP on..
Not for me. It was fast as heck there was just missing apps in the drawers

TW laucher is faster than this, in fact i think its the fastest launcher for our atrix right now. Anyway if you want to make arc launcher faster try reducing the number of applications in each appdrawer page.

The stock lock screen is honestly pretty terrible. Laggy and pretty featureless. I've tried a few things from the Market, but as soon as I restart the phone I end up with two lock screens. Any leads?

WidgetLocker is the best replacement lockscreen app...IMHO. And tons of themes here on xda, I make WidgetLocker themes as well.
Try MILocker highly customizable man... Its based upon MIUI

I gave this a try. I like how it looks, but it doesn't seem to scale up properly on our devices. Were you able to get around that?

It seems to depends on the theme. Also, almost everything's in Chinese. I like it a lot after a few edits, now I just gotta get media controls on the lock screen.

Yes the.lock screen is pretty horrible. For now I have just disabled it completely and I think I'll keep it that way for a while pretty nice

what do you mean?
Mine works just fine.....if your talking about the actually locks, you can long press on the locks and resize them. you have to be in widget locker to do it, you can't just do it from the lock screen.
so go to app drawer and open widget locker, long press on lock, resize
Im not a huge fan of alot of stuff on my lock or home screen, so for me the great alternative lock for me was sign2unlock.

The good thing about Widgetlocker is that it can be tweaked to have as little (or as much) as someone wants.

Highly customizable and fast

great for me..
simple,very customizable, and as you have said, fast..

You have to install them all.

It seems that the circle widget only works on the Homescreen which was in the zip.
I also installed them all and found that it still can't work on other launchers (I'm using Apex),
but it works fine on the Homescreen probably the default launcher of Atrix HD?
The dock below is too big, icons fall off screen

First install the launcher and then the widgets to be able to use the widgets
Ps: installed Samsung Galaxy S3 Launcher from here , quite pleased with it . very snappy and smooth .
Is it possible to make a flash able zip?

That's true, if it works on 3rd party launcher it would b amazing

I can use the launcher with the icons aligned in the dock without getting capped, but only if I change the LCD-resolution to 220 (but that is only a quick fix). I want someone to make the launcher nice without having to change the screen resolution.
pretty please...

please modify..
everything seems to work perfect other than the dock.. the icons come out to the home panels bulging out of the provided dock space.....may be because the icons are labelled..so please modify or add an option to remove the labels..i m using a sony ericsson xperia mini pro..
Wow looks amazing!! Gonna try
