I am also running AOKP (Rebel) on the S2 and I've got the same issue. When I wake the phone using the home button, it always brings up the recent apps menu!

It's very annoying! Can someone help?
[Android Apps and Games] Goindrinkn:
I apologize if this was asked. I only have time on the commuter so I don't have the full functions.

I recently upgraded to a cm9 based from for my atrix when I turn it off and back on. (Regular or reboot). I see a flash of the stock lock screen (no issue there). But widget locker pops up in tool mode. (I get the settings gear in the upper right corner). And I am able to access it.

After I open widget locker once to the dt it behaves as usual its just the initial time.

I do make a number of tweaks in the settings as I've been using it for awhile but for the life of me can't determine if its something I did / the rom / or otherwise.

(By tweaks I don't mean anything out of the ordinary. / notifications / change the Widgets / root helper etc.

I have cleared the app and uninstalled but get the same thing.

Thanks.

I just disabled WidgetLocker and it's still there. Seems to be a general AOKP problem (although it first happened when I installed WL).

Hi, I've been using it for a while now and mostly without issues.

But recently, I keep having to unlock twice to get to my homescreen.

So I unlock and 1 times out of 3, I see the homescreen and it goes back to WL.

Any suggestions ?

Hello. I hear you are the developer of widget locker. I have a problem. I have your lock screen set, and a password set, but when I go to unlock it, I slide and the original lock screen comes up and then my password comes up after this...is there a way to fix this? ?

Just tried to add profiles to widgetlocker myself by getting tasker to overwrite the entire data/data/com.teslasw.widgetlocker directory with various versions pulled from different states of wl. Even with wl closed between the profile switching, it just ended up force closing every time it was started again afterwards. No clue why.

Ofc the app wasnt designed to allow for this. I use similar tricks with other apps though and had hoped to get lucky here as well. Doesn't seems like this would be a hard feature to add from stock though, and this thread shows it's a much wanted feature.

[Android Apps and Games] Iceman_jkh:
As an android user (and paid WLocker owner) in the market to purchase a new Launcher, I noticed ADW EX, Nova and Apex (and also TSF) as offering very capable and interesting launchers.

(I previously purchased Launcher Pro +, but the dev all but abandoned it >1 year ago)

One of the things which sways me towards a particular product is how it performs/plays with other common/useful apps. Given that Kevin/TeslaCoil software develops both Widgetlocker and Nova, I was hoping he may be around in this thread to answer these questions:

Will widget locker ever be able to create (highly 'capable') lockscreens like those seen on MIUI ROMs, MiLocker or this Sharp "Frog" phone (http://www.frogdesign.com/work/sharp-aquos.html)? (I think sharp actually copied/built upon one of the MIUI lockscreens.)

I'm not saying WL lockscreens aren't useful, but they are being left behind (in animation, 'flailr' and features) by what MIUI/MiLocker screens are able to do lately.

Will Widgetlocker ever be integrated (entirely or in part) to Nova launcher, to improve the user experience when using WL as the NOVA launcher lockscreen? (ie: faster reactions/draws and not seeing the old lockscreen momentarily while WL wakes up and then covers it up)

Thanks for your time

Home button bypassing WL lockscreen

@Kevin,

Love the app but got a small problem. I'm running Resurection Remix 2.5.1 (AOKP) and Siyah kernel. Have never had this problem before when running a Samsung based ICS Rom, or, indeed a Gingerbread Rom.

Quite often when pressing the home button to wake the phone up, it just takes me straight to the homescreen completely bypassing WL lockscreen. In order to get it working again I have to manually restart widgetlocker from my app drawer.

I don't have any home button double click apps or such apart from with Siyah kernel where rapidly pressing the home button 4 times in a row inverts the screen colours. But I don't think this has anything to do with my problem.

Would appreciate any help, I'm currently on version 2.2.7 and don't have a stock LS enabled.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] xDAPO:
Thanks nice job.
[Android Apps and Games] carlos67:
I think I may have figured this out. I have re-enabled homehelper and it seems to behave now. Pressing home button brings up the WL lockscreen now. The reason for me disabling homehelper in the first place was because I only had 1 launcher. Touchwiz was frozen in Titanium.

I reasoned that homehelper was only needed if you have multiple launchers. But it seems not to be this way. I may be misinterpreting things but having homehelper enabled does the trick for me even with only 1 launcher (apex).
[Android Apps and Games] carlos67:
Update: perhaps homehelper was not the reason for the fix afterall. I think changing to SuperSU from Superuser was the reason for WL to start behaving properly. Hope this helps somebody else - Use SuperSU instead!
[Android Apps and Games] Touchmypro:
Purchased this app a few droids ago and its still one of my favorite all time apps:good:

I want to make a minor request if possible? I wish it had just a few more options for the screen switch animations. It would be nice to be able to select which way the "slide" animations slides. I would love "up" instead of from the right but it would also be cool to have it slide in the direction of whatever icon your choosing if you use a 4 way slider like ICS.

Thanks for reading!

Possible to get a CM9 like lockscreen, looks just like AOSP, but let's you add 3 additional quick unlock icons. Might already exists but not buying an app before I know it does what I want.

[Android Apps and Games] Sokudoningyou:
I'm terrible at updating apps sometimes; most of mine are not checked to automatically update in case of problems.

Well, I updated WL a few days ago finally, and started having weird problems; the ADW notifier was relocating the missed calls and text numbers off to the side, my Minimalistic Text widgets weren't updating with Tasker, and when I tried to put in a different slider (I was using the ICS one), I couldn't get any of the points on the sliders to actually update and show the correct app or function. Couldn't change icons either. I had to use Titanium Backup to set it back to my previous setup on 2.2.7. I'm assuming, since I'm a paid user, that I got the beta version? Whatever it was, it doesn't play nicely with me.

The only problem I have with widget locker is that when i unlock it automatically launches launcher pros Overview mode.
[Android Apps and Games] Shahpur.Azizpour:
Any news regarding that whole display turning off issue? right now setting the lockscreen to any key eith "tap and hold" will call the lockscreen.

But i want the "tap and hold" to activate the lockscreen and turn off the display at once. Because otherwise i experience some big problems:

- since the smallest timeout is 10sec, it happened to me many times that the screen will be unlocked in my pocket. This happens when i tap and hold the search button which activates the lockscreen. Then i put the device in my pocket. When i take the phone out after a while i can happen that i got unlocked while it was in my pocket. The reason here is that the screen is not turned off immediately but after 10 seconds. This in enough time for accidental presses.

- another setback of the "10 seconds rule" is that the screen orientation will go nuts in the background. Everytime i unlock my phone it's on landscape mode. This is probably also because calling the lockscreen doesn't "stop" android to change the screen orientation for the next 10 seconds, and putting it in my pocket will cause Launcher Pro to change the screen orientation.

I hope that we will get the turn off display at once fix soon...

Any news regarding the bug with sense lockscreen?
[Android Apps and Games] windg3:
New Problems and suggestions

Frankly, it's a good app!

Problems first:

But till now, it still has several problems to me.

1.Sometimes when a call come in, i often see the system locker firstly instead of widget locker. But sometimes not. i use HTC hero with v2.19.

2.the shortest blank screen time is 10 sec in setting option. i thinks it's not reasonable. Usually people want to blank screen right away when they trigger the widget locker instead of wait for 10 sec. i think the more option will be the better choice.

Suggestion:

1.Can you put a trigger icon of widget locker on the screen just like another app called smart taskbar(you can find it in market or this forum). Then we can lock the screen by one click instead of pull down the notification bar to tap the widget locker. it will be wonderful if the apparency and location of the icon can be adjusted.

2.Can we realize locking screen pattern like Quickdo,which it's the most popular iphone screen locker app (clezz.com/quickdo). Just get Quickdo as example, it can be placed on the top or bottom with 100% total apparency. When user want to lock the screen , what they need to do is only using the finger slide through the quickdo area. it's very easy. Obviously ,the Quickdo has a lot of function beyond our imagination.i think our developer should experience it and learn from it.

Thanks for you anyway!
[Android Apps and Games] remofo:
Excellent app.

Just one suggestion, it would seem logical that when Long Press is disabled in Lock Mode, the tiny 'Long-Press to Drag/Drop' label on the lockscreen should disappear, thereby indicating whether it's locked or not.
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
Odd, the last few days I've found WidgetLocker is always showing a grass background, not my current launcher background.

Anyone else noticed any weirdness like this? I've double checked, toggled, and fiddled with the background settings in the prefs, doesn't seem to matter.

text rendering issue?

Has anyone noticed quality problems with text rendered by widgets displayed on the lock screen?

I'm running Vanilla Eclair 4 on my HTC Hero with WidgetLocker. Small text doesn't look too good, when comparing how widgets such as digital clock are rendered, say to how they appear in LauncherPro.

Is this an antialiasing issue? If so, any chance of a fix? I'm wondering if http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/Paint.html holds the relevant information, specifically ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG.
