Lock screen help - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guy, so I updated to 4.2.2 on my ace 3 LTE and I noticed my pattern lock is tiny now, in fact my figures are too big to draw my complex pattern, anyone know how I can make it full size in the settings or something root can do?

[Q] Lock Screen Question

Hey Guys
I had a taught and wonder if anyone could give me some information.
Before my Galaxy S2 I had a HTC Desire and I remember that when you woke the phone you were greeted by the Lockscreen and then the pattern lock.
However when you have pattern lock enabled on the Galaxy S2 it just goes straight to pattern lock.
I was wondering if there was anyway to have both on S2. Its nothing major that I need but I liked this feature on the Desire and was wondering if it is something thats possible on the S2
Cheers

hi, u could try using a lockscreen alternative, i use lockview lockscreen the now, and that gives me the lockscreen, then when i slide to unlock, it gives me the screen to put in the pattern unlock screen, am sure things like go locker and magic locker would work the same, just make sure u select the show when secure box in settings. then you will have a lockscreen and pattern unlock. hope this helped

Am i retarded i know this has been problem in past but i cant find no recent chat about the issue?

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.

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.

This can be done on stock android. I'm talking about no dots either

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

Pattern unlock

Hi all, just wanted to know if there's a mod/app that makes the pattern lock invisible? as in the Dots don't display until you touch them or something to that extent? Any help here would be appreciated, thanks.
Settings, Lock screen, 5th options down let's you make the pattern unlock invisible! This is on 4.1.2 stock.

Go locker shows homescreen before actual lockscree

Hey guys,
i got fed up with my nexus' standard lockscreen, so i tried out the GoLocker. But everytime i lock the device and unlock it again, it shows the homescreen for like 1 second and then the actual lockscreen.
Anyone knows how to solve this?
