Second this notion.

even when I had 4.2 Stock, lockscreen widgets were only available if the phone was in slide unlock only. I think it's an android thing, and not necessarily a TW thing

You can do it on AOKP (and maybe CM10? not sure).

soooo adb pull /system/apps/launcher.apk from AOKP
rename (something_launcher.apk)
adb push /system/apps/something_launcher.apk
adb reboot
win?

has anyone tried this?

launcher has nothing to do with the lockscreen.

That is what i thought, wish there was a way to have the Widget showing then to open, enter the pattern lock. tks,

The lockscreen is an APK never the less... you should be able to find it and pull it from Cyanogen.
If not, there are plenty of lock screens on the play market that would accommodate you.

This looks neat

Saw a few of these setups in the "Post your Setup" section.
Idk if the rings are movable or just eye candy, but just thought id like to share.
I assume we need s-off for this.
that looks like some serious work. and doesn't look like to me that u need s off for that. i see themes with different lockscreens and nice widgetlocker setups all over the forums.
thats real nice and clean though

There is a Widgetlocker thread in the forums somewhere. There is a guy (sorry, can't remember his name) that is making them. No root required, just need Widgetlocker.

Yes. But I just noticed it's NightOwl. He's the one that made the lock screen I was talking about. I'm sure it's his work. The original lock screen he made is at the link below. You'll have to search for the other mod.

[Request] Gingerbread launcher with seven home screens

I'm running the latest CM7 nightly on my Droid Incredible. I have the paid versions of both ADW and Launcher Pro, but at the end of the day I always go back to the stock Gingerbread launcher. It's fast, minimal, and it just works. My only complaint is that that launcher2 only has five home screens, and I would like seven. A Google search brought me to a launcher2 mod over on XDA that has seven home screens, but whenever I press the phone shortcut I get a message telling me that "this application is not installed on your phone" (the mod is from the Samsung Epic 4G, I believe it's looking for the Touchwiz dialer and not the stock Gingerbread dialer). Would it be possible to mod the stock Gingerbread launcher to have seven screens and a working phone shortcut?

Did you try to push the file using root explorer or just install the apk the normal way... the instructions say to push it via root explorer.
Hit thanks if I helped please!

I pushed with root explorer. I think the problem is that the launcher is looking for the Touckwiz dialer, not the stock Gingerbread dialer.
Did you change permissions ?

Could also create a version with 3 homescreens instead? Would appreciate it immensely

I've been using my new launcher since yesterday and it's great, though I've found one small problem. starts, like when I power my phone back on in the morning, the widgets on the two home screens on the far right disappear. Again, this is a small problem and other then than that the launcher works perfectly.

EDIT-The widgets also disappear if I connect my phone to my computer and turn on USB storage.

K. Could be some code I missed. Will look at it later. Although I'm pretty sure widgets were sticking on screen 6 fine for me earlier when I was using it.

That did the trick. I rebooted my phone a couple times just to make sure and each time my widgets were right where I left them. Thanks again, gtg, you're awesome.

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.

Clicked on the thread in hopes of trying this. Since you are retired, might I suggest you just delete this thread. If the only reason for leaving it up is to blame another member, then perhaps start another one with an appropriate title.

You can go into priv app and remove the .bak from launcher2. Then rename MotLauncher2.apk to MotLauncher2.apk.bak

If you've applied the widget, then you should see MotLauncher2 and launcher2 in the priv app folder. To undo it, add .bak to MotLauncher2 and set the permissions on Launcher2 to Rw-r-r
