Okay, I've been searching dozens of forums now.
Phone: HTC Desire S
I've a custom ROM in use. I've been using Go Locker for months with no problem. Yet I've decided to switch back to phone's default locker due to personal reasons. I've deactivated Go Locker and enabled the phones default pattern lock. Locked the phone and unlocked it back. Now instead of showing the pattern screen I've a nice little black screen with the Notification bar at the top. I can't pull down the notification bar down, cant unlock the phone either. Home button does nothing. Powered the phone on and off dozens of times. Tried using adb debugging etc.
Is there a way to disable the phone's default pattern lock and set a default launcher. I thing the launcher is not starting with the phone or something.
Could you give me suggestions related to the problem. I'd gladly answer your questions leading to an solution

Hey,
i have a evo 3d and even before i rooted it and put a custom rom on it, i wanted to remove that weather lock screen that always comes up when you power your phone on. The one that has phone mail camera messages icons and the Current weather, and you then have to drag a circle to the middle. That is the screen i want to remove or disable.
How can i do this with a rooted or stock phone?
I have seen the no lock app and the ScreenMode App which DO remove the Lock screen im talking about, but they ALSO REMOVE the security Pin / Pattern Lock screen also (which i want to retain.)
As it is now, i have to go through 2 lock screen when i power up my phone- The Weather Lock screen i speak of above and want to remove/disable - and the 2nd lock screen is my Pin/Pattern Lock screen which i can enable or disable via Settings->Security->Device Lock.
Please help me remove the weather lock screen,
tks
Widgetlocker is your answer
there's a couple ROMs in the dev section that have removed it, and are using the aosp lockscreen, go check them out.
Just go to setting personalize lock screen and change it to whatever you want no root needed

You have 2 options. You can go into system/data and rename HTCLockscreen.apk to HTCLocksreen.bak (rather than deleting it, in case you ever want it back). Or you could use Titanium Backup to uninstall HTCLockscreen
Widget Locker now gives me its locker screen, which is then followed by my Pattern lock screen (which i need, i only want the pattern lock screen).
If i go to Settings->Personalize (nothing happens, as in i get no options to choose), it just brings me back to the home screen.
I have Titanium Backup Pro and removed HtcLockScreen.apk and it removed it sucesfuly, but now the default Google Lock screen (with the lock on one side, speaker on the other) and you slide the lock to the right to unlock it.
Is there a way to keep WidgetLocker running, but set it to NO lock screen. Normally you would just un-check "Enable Widget Locker" in WidgetLocker's settings but doing this makes the home weather lock screen reappear.
or is there a way to disable the Google lock screen and keep the Pattern Security lock screen (this is how i had it on my EVO 4g)
Thanks for the help guys!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Hold your finger on the weather widget for about 10 seconds (untill the *trash* pops up at the bottom) and drag the sucker into the trash.
Took me all of the first day I owned this phone to kill that POS.
To remove the default HTC Lock screen?
Eitherway i dont have a Weather Widget on my home screen, nor can i add one (dont have weather or news listed under my widgets when i try to add)
tks for the reply
I've an issue regarding the combination of the Beautiful Widget screen unlock animation and the widgetlocker app that I was hoping someone could give advice/pointers on. I'm using a Nexus S with Oxygen 2.3.1 ROM
I have beautiful widget on one of my homescreens with the unlock animation activated. I've also got Widgetlocker activated on top of the android pattern unlock. What I notice is that weather animation sometimes has issues appearing.
When I unlock the device, turn the screen off, and unlock the device very quickly, the animation does appear. But if I wait a few extra seconds before screen-unlock, the animation sometimes shows up.
If i use only widgetlocker or only the android pattern unlock, the animation always appears.
has anyone reproduced this issue or know a way around it? thanks!!
I've got the same issue. I use the pin lock, but same thing. It seems if you unlock quick enough, you can see the animation, but it disappears a split second later. Its like Widget Locker triggers the animation instead of the pin lock screen, and the animation is starting behind the scenes while i type in my pin. Your right though, if I turn the screen off, then unlock again right after, it works.
I think there are two issues here:
1. The Android unlock screen should trigger the animation, not Widget Locker
2. The animation does start, but the duration is set to 20 seconds, and it dies within 1 second.
I was hoping there was a Widget Locker setting that might compensate for this. I tried "root helper" to no avail. Also, there is a setting that says "Retain System Keyguard (not recommended. but may help interactions with other lockscreen-related programs)", no dice.
For what it's worth, I have a Samsung Infuse 4g running SGH_I997_UCKK4 Rom (a Samsung leak).
I'm using fold 3 fancy widget stoped working all together. So now I've installed beautiful widget a nd the unlock animations are not working at all. When I open the app I see the clouds moving so I know It should be working. I've cleaned the cache and still nothing any suggestions from anyone? Wish there was another app to have windshield whiper when it rains like fancy widget...
Anyway to disable the sense lock screen?
I have set a pattern lock and prefer to not have to drag the circle across the screen and then pattern unlock. Ideas?
I think you can turn it off in settings but if not try no lock from the market

Can't seem to find any option for it. Looked under just about every area I can think of.
Hi, I've got a strange problem that for the life of me I can't figure out!
I've changed my Desktop wallpaper, and Lockscreen wallpaper but for some strange reason when I unlock my phone (the wallpaper is correct at the initial unlock screen) when I slick to unlock, I am shown the screen to enter my pattern, I am shown my old wallpaper!? Once the device is unlocked, the desktop has the correct new one?!
Where is this held?! I've tried every combo I can think of to change it, but no luck!
I'm using Halo Launch, and Widget Locker if that makes any difference. I've tried disabling both of these and using the defaults but the pattern screen still shows the old wallpaper!?
I have a little problem with my G5. Normally at the bottom of the lock screen, there are three icons with shortcuts to the camera, phone and recording. For the first few days of using the phone they were visible, but now just gone. I tried to delete all installed applications, but nothing changed. The problem occurs only when the lock is set on 'Swipe' method, in other cases, shortcuts are available . Does anyone know where I can find the solution to the problem?
