I am quite happy with the stock S3 rom, except for one thing, the lockscreen. Is it possible to install a fully functional S4 lockscreen on rooted original S3 rom? By fully functional I am most interested in the music player widget. On all of the "S4 roms" for the S3, when I play music, the music controls and the coverart from the player appears where the clock normally is. This happes all by itself, no slide to the left to see controls or anything else. It just works.
All of the roms that imitate the S4 has issues, and I am planning on going stock again, but I'll miss that lockscreen.
Is there one to install?

... the standard Android lockscreen?
Coming from Stock Android 2.2 lockscreen on my Hero (was using FroydVillain) the SGS2 lockscreen is really a big annoyance and I'd like to replace it with stock Android lockscreen. Is that possible ? (the phone is rooted)
Im not entirely sure, but I think there is an app you can get from the Market place called Widget Locker. You can customise your own Lockscreen doing that. I guess you could make it look like Stock Android if you wanted.
Hi Devs and Android lovers,
First of all, "Thanks ALL" for your work which make this community possible.
I am using Samsung Galaxy S2 with Cyanogenmod 7.1. I love it. I liked MIUI Music player than the stock on cyanogenmod. The only problem I am facing with this is, I am not able to control the MIUI player from lockscreen. Each time, I use the lockscreen music controls, it automatically opens up the stock music player. I really really like the Cyanogenmod Lockscreen. But I dont know how I could configure the lockscreen music controls to use MIUI player.
I want to stay with the stock lockscreen. So I have not yet tried any thirdparty lockscreen apps with music widget controls. Please refer one if you are already using any.
Thanks a lot mates. Cheers for your good work
Guru
just remove the stock music apk from your system/apps move it to your SD backup folder or something in case if u want it later that will do it
Hey there.
I've been using the HTC Amaze for a few weeks and I've had an excellent experience rooting it and flashing custom ROMs. However, Sense UI irks me to no end. I'm currently using Speed Rom 4.0 by EclipzeRemix for the AOSP replacements, and the ICS theme by electronicrice.
This ROM uses the default ICS lockscreen as a replacement lockscreen, which works fine except for one thing - when I use Google Play Music the music controls don't come up. It looks like it wants to do something because the wallpaper vanishes when I listen to music as well.
So here are my questions:
1. How would I go about extracting the CM9 lockscreen and making it flashable onto a deodexed ROM like Speed Rom 4.0?
2. How can I make it possible to add the volume button music control functionality?
Until the kernel source is released for the Amaze and CM9 can be developed properly, I would like my Sense UI to have the most AOSP experience as possible. I am a bit new to ROM/Application development for Android like this, although I've made a few themes in the G1 days and programming is not a new thing for me. I've rooted Android more than I can count too, and can say I'm pretty experienced in that field.
Any answers you can give me would be great, however try not to post something like "Use Widget Locker instead," as I would like to learn how to make a flashable add-on like this.
Thanks!

I'm fairly sure Apollo Player does NOT stream music from Google Play. Also, see my comment above that reads:

Your answer totally wen't WHOOSH right over my questions and did not answer what I asked.
Thanks for the tip, though.
Hi Guys,
I've tried the JB roms and was really impressed by how smooth and responsive they were. However, I am currently on the Task ICS rom and I LOVE the music player widget. Would I be able to install the touchwiz Music player onto jellybean? And if so, how?
Thanks!
simple answer u can't as it requires touchwiz framework ...........
Hi.just bought sgs III 4g.
Just rooted and installed sammy based custom rom 4.1 something and noticed that i cant install dashclock.
I had it in my sgs II 4.2.2.
So is it possible to someone port it to 4.1?
probably not, since 4.1 is outdated
maybe yes.but there is just too many issues in 4.2.2.
like what?
Lock screen widgets were introduced in 4.2 onwards....so i dont think its possible to get dashclock on any phone running version 4.2>.
Hope this helped.
DashClock is a replacement lock screen clock widget for Android 4.2+. It also exposes additional status items called extensions.
Like Google Play says, it is for Android 4.2+

yes i know.i have it in my sgs II..
so what issues does 4.2 have?
Dashclock 4.1
What if I don't want it on my lock screen but I just want it on my homescreen? can it be ported?
I'm looking for a 4.1 version as well for use as a homescreen widget. I get that the lock screen (why anyone would want this?) portion isn't available on 4.1 but why not the home screen widget? I love dashclock on my Nexus 10 and really want it on my S3.
it's an old thread, but just as a workaround, install this: better dashclock widget it works for android 4.0 and later
