I assume the answer is somewhere, but how can I make it so I don't have to completely unlock my phone to see who is calling?

Yeah, I selected the option for the AOSP lockscreen. Is there no way at all around this?

If you want to stay with the aosp lock screen instead of sense, you can use widget locker with the aosp lock screen then you'll see your caller id.

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.

Can't really customize the lock screen on Samsung's touchwiz. You can disable the ripple effect in settings>security>lockscreen.. can't remember the exact location of it.. but it's in security options. You can also edit the shortcuts on the lockscreen, add a weather widget, etc.,
Is there anyway to use a jellybean unlock theme?
You can search play store for lockscreen apps like widgetlocker, lockbot, etc...

In ICS 4 shortcuts are the max you can add and in JB it's 5.
Go to settings>Security>Lock screen Options> click on shortcuts.

Yep. I was using it before. But I've switched to CM. So gave it up. If I remember correctly , it has gesture unlock and stuff. But it needs go launcher to function. (just have it installed)
LIFE! It's what you make out of it!
@lifehacker, thanks. Actually, Pro version works with any launcher.
I just wish there was a lockscreen with pattern and agenda/unread sms/calls info like in Sense 4.1

There are many lockers in play Store. Try it yourself.
I found locker pro . It shows the unread notifications and stuff. But it doesn't come with a pattern lock though.
There are pros and cons in every app. Get the one which suits you.

hey guys, i have the arhd ge rom on my phone, and i love it. but i am having one small issue. i use my mophie a lot, and when it's in my pocket i inadvertently hit the power button and the sceen comes on.
unfortunately, the ge lockscreen is editable and if you can unlock the phone a few random screen brushes because it either edits the clock, lock icon, or goes to another widget page. is there any way to lock the lockscreen and avoid all this?
thanks in advance

Unfortunately I don't think that's possible on GE roms. I think there's some options in aosp based roms having to do with turning of lockscreen Widgets but that's all I know of.

Is there a way to get the stock Android lockscreen on the P769? I have tried renaming LGLockscreen3.apk but the new lockscreen it gives after renaming it has a white line on the bottom. I was thinking if maybe there was an apk that has the AOSP lockscreen so I can replace LGLockscreen.apk with it. I have tried Holo Locker but sometimes the phone unlocks to the LG Lockscreen.

For after market lock screens, like Go Locker, etc. You must disable the stock lock screen and also must allow and activate the after market lock screen app in System->Security->Phone Administrators

Thanks, but is there a way to get the stock Android lockscreen without aftermarket apps? If you don't understand what I mean by "Stock" I mean the lockscreen with a white lock and 3 shortcuts, Google Up, Camera Left, and Unlock Right. It's the one found in CM.

That's CM's lock screen. Should be available in any CM ROM. Stock is unchanged from the OEM.

Would it be possible to get the lockscreen.apk from a CM10 ROM and use it on a stock P769?
EDIT: I tried opening a CM ROM but there isn't a lockscreen APK. (I'm still learning about Android) However, when I rename the LGLockscreen3 APK, I get a CM-like lockscreen just that it has a grey bar on the bottom.

Thanks for sharing.
All you have to do is remove the lockscreen apk.
You made the system not find it by renaming it.
I believe I saw something about it inside the LGSettings.apk. However, I never knew how to enable it. :beer:

For some reason I can't see the images you attached, instead it's a broken file icon do you know what causes that? It only happens to me on XDA.
You could try editing build.prop
There is lglockscreen=true or something similar. Dont remember exactly. Just chang it.
From what I can tell the following are the files you've been looking for...
1) com.lge.lockscreen.apk
2) Lock Screen Settings.apk
As @kuma82 mentioned, there may also be something in SystemUI.apk as well.

I believe that lockscreen is found in the frameworks apk. I've checked everywhere else and I found some info in the frameworks.

@kuma82 is right. Original AOSP lock screen code is in /framework.jar and its resources are in framework-res.apk. To fix grey bar you need to look into those files. If you delete or rename Lockscreen3.apk, AOSP lockscreen will show up. But I don't think it's easy to fix that grey bar and you don't have option to customize that lock screen.
