and it shows up and stay locked if i use a slider like dialer/camera

Lockscreen area doesnt work with live wallpapers

Feature Request

First of all: Thanks for this great Lockscreen-Replacement. It is working without any flaws for me on a Desire with Froyo which deserves a lot of respect due to the complexity of the App.

I have one feature request though:

I am using LauncherPro as my HomeApp. As you probably know, there is always an animation, when you close Apps in Launcher Pro (the window fades away to the background). The problem now is, that this animation looks quite a bit laggy when unlocking widgetlocker. It doesnt limitate the usability of the programm at all, because the unlocking process is still absolutely fast, but the framerate doesnt look too good (hope you understand what i mean :) ). I would be pleased, if it was possible to exclude widgetlocker from this animation, so that the home screen is shown instantly or just slightly fades in like when unlocking the Sense-Lockscreen. Would that be possible?

Its not a big thing but as one unlocks his device douzens of times a day it would really be an improvement to work on in my opinion. Im not sure at all though, if the animation is really related to LP or if it belongs to widgetlocker as i never used WL together with Sense...

Nevertheless a great App, so keep up the good work Mate. Greets

HELP!!

I just install WidgetLocker, and my screen is blank!! I can't unlock because I dont see nothing...

What can I do?

I have reboot the phone but I can't see the "Pin" input screen..

HELP!!

Found the solution "I push on Back light off" on the lock screen... I think this should NOT be on the lock screen as default....
[Android Apps and Games] GchildT:
Great App! Here is my modded WidgetLocker Screen.
[Android Apps and Games] tdog23767:
I had another question.

I use SMS Popup and have it set for when an sms comes in to allow it to popup on top of widget locker. However, after the 15 seconds I have the screen set to stay lit, the popup disappears behind widget locker (i.e. I have to unlock to see the popup). Is there any way to maintain the popup on top of widget locker?

--EDIT--

sigh googling for hours does wonders! found an awesome thing called apk manager .. helps me alot

did i mention you guys got an awesome app!:p

-sigh- lol

So before the 1.2.6 patch.. i was actually able to install widgetlocker with my custom icons and stuff lol .. after i updated it's all gone (poop)

I'm trying to do the same process as i've done before which is this:

extract widgetlocker.apk via adb pull

open the .apk file through winrar and drop the appropriate .pngs

resign using auto-sign

and sideload

it doesn't work anymore X_x.. is there a step here that i forgot?

Using WidgetLocker and using the custom lock screen background.

They have to be 480x854 for the Droid X (or Droid) but here is my current setup. Thought I would share.
[Android Apps and Games] kevin@TeslaCoil:
It's the Lock screen clock, near the top under widgets.

Are you using a security lock? Or Retain System Keyguard?

You mean touch interactions don't go to the live wallpaper? This is true and perhaps I will make it an option in the future. The stock lock screen doesn't interact with live wallpapers either, and it can eat CPU if it was happening in your pocket.

I've tried and can't seem to do it on my end. I've been meaning to see if I can get fede to exclude WidgetLocker or provide some way for me to signal to him to not do animations.

I do not understand. There is no option for back light off...

Not at this time, I'll keep it in mind, it's hard problem though.

I just tried and realized that indeed apktool doesn't seem to work well with WidgetLocker anymore. This wasn't intentional and I definitely support users theming the apk. I was also able to repack/resign by unzipping manually and deleting the certs and rezipping/resigning.
[Android Apps and Games] Namtaru:
I bought this app for both mine and my girlfriends Sprint Hero.

I love what it brings to the table, but unfortunately I had to uninstall it from both our Hero's because of the constant launcher reloads.

I use my phone a lot during the day and just yesterday it happened about 8-10 times. It gets really annoying when I'm in one app and want to go to another only to have to wait 15-20 seconds for the launcher to reload. My g/f was experiencing the same issue.

I tried disabling the homehelper and just using the root option under advanced but the issue still persisted.

If this issue ever gets ironed out i would love to use it again.
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
This app sounds awesome. Being a LauncherPro user, I would definitely consider buying after that issue is resolved.
[Android Apps and Games] kevin@TeslaCoil:
If you indeed disabled the HomeHelper (Select System Home and chose a new default) then WidgetLocker is not effecting the priority of the Launcher as seen by android. It might be that a reboot would help put things in the right order, or it might simply be that you are running out of memory and Android is killing the Launcher. I imagine Android would kill WidgetLocker first if that was the case (Though again maybe a reboot will help Android organize things better).
[Android Apps and Games] kdma:
lets see!

About the clock i didnt notice poor me :)

Not using security lock i tried with Retain System Keyguard enabled enabled/disabled and i still get it

Yes i meant touch interations :) maybe its best without any interation then.:p

[Android Apps and Games] creeve4:
I am using WidgetLocker 2.2.3 and the newest version of PowerAmp (2.0.5-build-488).

The "Direct Unlock" option in PowerAmp does not work when using WidgetLocker as the default lock screen. The "Direct Unlock" option should take you from the PowerAmp lock screen directly to the Home Screen. Instead, unlocking from the Poweramp lock screen takes you to the Widgetlocker lock screen.
[Android Apps and Games] phoenixs4r:
Using widgetlocker, both standard market version and latest public beta, I experience significant lag unlocking to home and using the program to unlock to different apps whilst using the sense 3 unlocker on my galaxy nexus. This has happened on stock and multiple custom roms. Anyone else have this lag?
[Android Apps and Games] tierix:
I do! I use CheckromHD v6. The lag is shorter though when using the HOME button rather than the BACK button.
[Android Apps and Games] phoenixs4r:
Wrong phone.

I love widgetlocker but I have a slight problem

I use smart app protector to lock my apps.

When I open any locked app and lock the screen with power button and unlock it with WL for few seconds the locked app is open(without lock).After few seconds lock appears.

Is it problem of WL or app protector.I have tried atleast all the app protectors in market and I am having same issue.
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
I recently upgraded to an AT&T Galaxy Note and having trouble getting the Autoswipe to work. I have a pattern-lock on my phone, and I've tried all of the various Autoswipe options, including Samsung Glass first thing, although not sure what the lock on my Note is offhand. It's not the same as my wifes SGS2, looks more ICS-ish with a circle lock once you swipe.

Using stock rooted AT&T Note. Anyway, this worked great on my Nexus One, be nice if it worked on the Note too, missing my Widget Locker. :)

Installed on my Droid 3 today. Seems to work as advertised. Battery usage hovering around 3% (not bad) and CPU @ 2s. Had some problems with previous beta and battery drain, but could have been the version of Go Launcher ex. Have now dropped down to V 2.60 and all appears to work fine.

Will check back after D3 update.

[Android Apps and Games] tierix:
I have 2 questions please guys:

- How to configure WL to that ONLY the HOME key on SGS2 can wake the phone up?

No options are selected in "Buttons & Inputs --> Unlock Methods", and only "Allow Home Buttons" option is selected in "Buttons & Inputs --> Button Actions", but still the volume buttons and the Power button wake my phone

- What option to use to be able to use the WL options by pressing the left key from the locked screen?

thanks a lot
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
Hmm, not sure if it was the beta, or what, but Widget Locker is working on my phone now. Galaxy Note, stock AT&T ROM, rooted. In settings I've set the Pattern to lock IMMEDIATELY (otherwise I get the stock lockscreen), installed and set up Delayed Lock, then set up Widget Locker. Now I get only Widget Locker until the lock is enabled via Delayed Lock, then I get Widget Locker followed by Pattern Lock. So all is good now. :)

I did notice a few problems with the beta, but no idea if they're new to the beta or not. If I try to Edit the WL Time Widget, it freezes for a moment then WL Force Closes. I saw this also happen in the settings once too, I was just browsing through and not 100% sure where and suddenly the screen turned black for a moment then I was back at my launcher and had a WL FC dialog show up immediately after.
[Android Apps and Games] kevin@TeslaCoil:
2.2.4beta4

Fix hide nav buttons option not showing on some devices

Fix FC when displaying update available notification

Fix Root Helper autoswipe and HomeHelper options on some devices

Note because of (2) you won't be prompted to update, you'll just see WL crashing sometimes :(. Settings > Check for updates will still work.

Glad it's working now. My Note is international and running an ICS leak so I didn't have a good test case. I did fix autoswipe for ICS though and possibly some other devices.

Unlock is not the same as Wake up. The only option WL has for wake up is Easy Wake Mode. If you disable this then WL does not change how the device wakes up. However you might be using another app (like No Lock) that does.

I don't understand the second question.

I fell in love with you app but I have a configuration "problem" that I couldn't manage..

A bit of background:

I'm a pixel-alignment maniac.

Samsung GT-S5570 (Galaxy Mini) Phone (LDPI device...)

CyanogenMod 7.2-RC5.6 from squadzone

I'm using ADW Launcher (free) and mClock widget.

This is the layout of my home screen

What I wanted to obtain was to have a lockscreen with a fully transparent upper half (over the unlock rotary) so it could display the mClock widget, but since this is not possible, I tried to obtain a similiar configuration using your app and replicate my home screen widget settings.

I'm using a 2x4 grid over a 2 lines slider area and this is the result

the 4x2 mClock widget in the home screen is slighty smaller then the 4x2 widget in WidgetLocker.

I tought it was a launcher problem (even tough your app is based on adw code so I thought widgets should work in the same way..) so I tried with other launchers (LauncherPro, Zeam, GO Launcher) but the result is the same..

I tried fiddling with the grid size and resizing the widget to no avail....

Am I doing something wrong?? Is there a "hidden" margin setting somewhere in ADW or WidgetLocker??

I think I found a bug, I don't have much information on it but here is what I was able to replicate. Turning the app on (with and without root access) will cause my multi touch fail on games and tester apps. Disabling this app immediatly fixes this. Any reason for this? I really want to use this app and not have to turn it off for games :(

Lag with Sense 3 unlocker but not ICS unlocker

Hi Kevin, first I would like to say your app is fantastic. Thanks! It works extremely stable on my rooted sgs2. However, I recently changed my unlocker from the ICS 4 app unlocker to the Sense 3 unlocker - again with 4 attached apps. I have noticed a slight lag in the unlocking action with the sense unlocker that wasn't there with the ics unlocker.

Would it be possible to have a quick look at this as I noticed some other users have also noticed the same lag with the Sense 3 unlocker.

I am on the latest 2.2.4 beta 4 release.

Apart from this minor niggle it's perfect and never lets me down.

Guys, maybe you can help me.

I remember having used an option to prevent the lockscreen to lock the phone within x seconds. Now I believe that was an option in WL, but I can't find it (anymore). But I am not sure anymore, am I mistaken and was that an option in Cyanogenmod maybe?
[Android Apps and Games] paul c:
Hi Kevin,

I asked the question in the past, but it most have got buried by other posts - I've been using WL for about a year now, great app.

When the phone is being charged, I would really like to not have to unlock WL.

Let me explain: if the phone is on charge, it is probably not in a pocket or similar, it will be on a desk, so the chances of unintentionally pressing the power button followed by another h/w button or the screen, are pretty low (lose to zero, I'd say).

So, could we have an option to disable/enable WL according to the power state? If charging, it's not enabled, and if not charging, it is enabled.

I find it rather annoying to have to remove the lock screen if the phone is sat on my desk, or if I'm using it while charging :)
[Android Apps and Games] latino147:
That's a very good idea indeed! I am now using Unlock With Wifi so I don't need to unlock the phone when I'm connected to certain wifi-networks. Works great at home, but not at work where there is no wifi-connection at all!

So this would be a great solution as I also have the pin-code to enter each time I want to unlock the phone (a requierement for UWW to work :()
[Android Apps and Games] gkaravid:
Lock for lockscreen?

Isn't it possible to make a locking mechanism for the WL it's self?

I want to lock my phone, after a certain period of time, so I can be sure that others can't see my content (f.e. when I leave it on my desk in the office), even after phone-reset. Now, the best choice I have is the phone's original lock.

But the phone's original lock, works only with the original lockscreen and it's so annoying having to unlock 2 times, one for the WL and one for the phone's, it's also dum...

I don't care about rooting the phone, so I can't make use of the "auto unlock original lockscreen" option.
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
Sure, Kevin could put a superficial lock in WidgetLocker, like quite a few other apps similar to WidgetLocker. It, however, would not be secure. The only secure lock is the one in Android, anything else could be gotten around.

Depends on what phone you have, but on both my phones I've been able to twiddle stuff around until I have widgetlocker followed by my pattern input, no intermediate standard lockscreen. I am rooted, but on my current phone, Galaxy Note, WidgetLocker's "autoswipe" wasn't working anyway, but I figured out as long as the pattern is always set to show, it never shows the lock screen, only pattern. So add Delay Lock so I don't always have to unlock, and bam, works great. :)

-3-5 secs lag before scren starts responsive

These 2 major bugs are now fixed.

Hi, I seem to run into a new problem lately. Up until a few days ago, WL was working fine for me. But now, it will randomly close itself and not be active and my default lock screen kicks in. I had easy wake mode on so there should be no reason my default lock screen is active. Any ideas?

This issue seems to have just started when I recently updated GoLauncher to v2.85

hey there,

when i use the original cm7 lockscreen and have an app open (eg the browser) and then the phone (sgs2) gets locked (either manually or by timeout), after i unlock the phone again, the app is still open. but when i use widgetlocker, i am always back to the homescreen after unlocking. is there a possibility to keep open apps stay open when the phone is locked for a short time?

Absolutely no idea where this is related to...worked fine in Gingerbread. Can I download this beta anywhere else?

Also after updating to ICS WidgetLocker seems to disable the Full Screen HTC Weather animation inside the clock widget even though they are enabled in the Settings. When I re-add the HTC widget with WL disabled the animations show everytime I unlock with the stock homescreen, but as soon as I re-enable WL the animations stop.
