Swipe into pattern - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Is there any way to use the swipe screen on the lockscreen to then get to the pattern screen? To me that would be pretty cool. Is there any way to do it?

I use WidgetLocker. Custom sliders and wisdgets on my home screen. I can unlock to homescreen, or straight to dialer, messages, camera, or google now directly. I can use flashlight without unlocking, too, which is clutch.
When I unlock, my pattern shows up. What neat is that I have a different back ground for lockscreen, then a brick wall background for the unlock page, and then a new one when you open up.

I was actually looking to use the stock lockscreen and then swipe into the pattern screen

What I'm mad they removed in IcS was timed lockouts. Like, slide only, but if it was locked for more than x minutes, you need to use password

[Q] Alternative Lock Screen

So what can I do to replace my lockscreen? I'd like something like WhisperCore which forces me to wipe away my fingerprints in order to unlock so that others can't unlock my phone by looking at the smudges. Is there anything like that out there?
I'll just leave this humongous thread here:

Wow that is a hell of a lot of lockscreens but I'm looking for a specific feature which they all seem to lack. With whispercore (for the nexus) you have a feature called sumdge-resistant screen unlock patterns. So you draw out your pattern as normal but instead of simply unlocking you are brought to another screen with stars all over the screen. You wipe your finger up and down the screen to highlight the stars. Once they are all highlighted your phone unlocks and you've successfully wiped away your the smudges from your pattern. Honestly if I'm not forced to do this then I'll probably forget.

Yeah I read about that lockscreen on these forums. It was the reason I decided to ask.

Anyone know of a lockscreen or widget that will allow me to control my Google Music app without having to slide unlock the phone. I see that the photon allows you to do this with the stock music app but not with the Google music app. Much thanks.

Agile lockscreen lets you select the music app to use as lockscreen control

Widget locker does that, and more its what I choice to use
has anyone explained yet how to replace the lock screen via root to the aosp rotary one? I am interested in completely replacing the blur lockscreen
Using Widgetlocker and the darn stock Motorola lockscreen keeps popping up from time to time. Anyone know how to disable it or freeze it in TB to keep it from coming up? Very annoying to have 2 lock screens to mess with.

Please help!

Maybe im just stupid but i am using widget lock for my home screen customization and i am trying to not have the original lock screen with my security. So my widget lock screen will show up then i swipe and my samsung beans rom 5 standard homescreen with pin is their. Its like you have two homescreens this is retarded and i see no way to fix this? Am i retarded i know this has been problem in past but i cant find no recent chat about the issue?
thank you
Try going to your lock screen settings and changing your lock to swipe.

Or set the lockscreen style in system settings to "none" even.

Right.
Go to settings>screen lock and set screen lock to none.
But I want there to be some type of security to get into phone. Or is this not possible

If you disable the lock screen in settings and then use the widget lock, i think you will just have one lock screen.

But there is no security like pin or pattern in widget locker right. So then I have no securoty

[Q] Quick Camera without Unlocking?

Hi guys,
First of all, i hate the iphone, but there's one thing i admire - the ability to open the camera without unlocking the phone (when a pattern/pin lock is present). I would like this ability within the S3... (rooted obviously)
I know about widget locker, but I don't believe this will allow camera access still without unlocking??
Lots of very capable devs on the S3, was wondering if its a possible mod to create?
Thanks
hello, I also would like it.
Coming from iphone too.
I saw a CyanogenMod 10.1 on a galaxy S2 that allows this. Hope ^^
Go to settings - security and lockscreen - lock screen options - turn on camera quick access..
Rotate the device in lockscreen while touching the screen to launch camera
Hope it helps...

This doesn't allow you to open the camera app without unlocking the phone first. If it did, would be awesome!! Love that motion
Then put shortcut of camera app in lock screen.. Then u wont be unlocking the phone but u will go straight to the camera

Nope this takes me straight to the pattern lock that i must enter, then after i unlock it will open the camera app..
same request here.
the method coming closest to the desired behaviour so far was possible on my previous android phone while using MIUI. there, an application based lock is implemented in the system (not through an additional app). MIUI is currently not an option for me, though, for other reasons.
i prefer my APEX/Raubkatze modified stock ROM.
cheers,

I'm running CM 10.1 and this is definitely possible because I use this feature all the time. When my screen is locked I slide from the right to access the camera. I do not need to put in my pin.
You can add pages or change what they are in the lock screen by first locking your device, then when you see the keypad simply swipe it away. When its moved down just tap and hold an empty space and add a page. Put the camera on one of those pages and its done - use the camera app without unlock.

transparent lockscreen.

Hello I was hoping someone would be able to make a transparent pattern lockscreen for me. I don't want to be able to see the dots at all I want it completely transparent
also I am using twisedumbrella's aosp rom
Sounds like a terrible idea to me. If you mess up that pattern lock enough times it will completely lock your phone down. At least that's what I thought.

well I use the same password and pattern lock so i'm so used to the location of the buttons that it wouldn't be a problem. plus if you can't get in you can unlock it with your gmail

You can download an app in the playstore that removes the the pattern feedback that you're drawing to unlock your phone.
Basically, all it shows is dots.

I prefer the dots so that I don't mess up the pattern. Lol. Mine is kinda complicated, even with the dots.
(Always remember to wipe your screen off so you leave no prints. I enjoy unlocking my friends phones for fun and watch them freak out on how I knew their patterns) Ha.

Yeah the dots are very helpful but I think I would look really cool if you could just draw your pattern on a blank screen and have it unlock

I went into spotify and checked the box that says "device broadcast status" and I now have lockscreen controls.

I'm using the newest version of Spotify and I was able to get lockscreen controls without changing any options in the Spotify app by using a pattern lock. I have not tried this with PIN or other types of lock screens, but the controls show up where they should and function properly when using pattern lock. They do not work at all with the TouchWiz standard unlock screen from my experience. This is sadly the only way I've been able to get them working without using a third party lock screen app.
