Simply Lockscreen

Hey guys :)

Me and my bud from Spain (the coder) made a sweet lockscreen replacement.

Just search for "Simply Lockscreen" in the market.

Feel free to post bugs n' such.

Here's a screenshot:
[Android Apps and Games] h_zee13:
very nice lockscreen...i've researched a bit and would really like to learn how to make a lockscreen also
[Android Apps and Games] The_Law2:
Its cool, but it shows "null none" under the time. Also the home button unlocks the phone.

Incredible with froyo.
[Android Apps and Games] Baldyl0cks:
also getting null none under the clock
[Android Apps and Games] niscrome:
It seems like we are in the same boat.

By the way I can bypass the lockscreen by pushing the home button. Also the stock lock screen want to creep up and take over.
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Hello, Im the dev :)

Video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJI-lcqKgno

New versión! added suppot to Droid/Evo4g/Desire screens
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
Your video looks like it was recording a mirror version. Needs to be flipped 180 degrees about vertical axis

Also, a closer view so we could read what the screen says would be more helpful
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
It doesn't work perfectly, like many of the market comments. Pressing Home bypasses lock, I get null none under time.

I would like to see an option to not show weather (don't want additional GPS/battery usage), and the option to not hide the notification bar
[Android Apps and Games] frostman89:
Seems like a nice alternative. I would like to see an option to enter your zip code or city for weather, as opposed to using location only, since my GPS is on about 0.01% of the time.

Also would love other fonts for the time, and not sure if it shows unread sms, email, gmail, missed call or not, but if it doesn't, would love to see it implemented.
[Android Apps and Games] howdid:
I have tried it out and i liked it much but can you add a 24/7 clock?
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Updated to 1.3 versión, added support for 1.6 Donut! and Dream/Magic/MyTouch3G screen sizes

Thanks for the suggestions, I am working on :D
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
New Update!

To block home button:

-Select a Launcher in Lockscreen Settings.

-Click Home button and select SimplyLock to default home.

-Thats it! Home button is bloqued on Lockscreen and is full functional outside :D
[Android Apps and Games] blueride156:
This is a really nice lock screen. Simple and clean. I've just got 2 suggestions:

1. Can there be a way to disable vibration?

2. Like c00ller, can there be a way to use the standard notification bar?

Also, I'm not sure if it can be fixed (since I've seen it on other lock screens), but when leaving the lock screen and going to the lock pattern, the home screen quickly flashes behind the pattern screen.

[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Tips:

To lock the Home button on the screen lock "Simply Lockscreen":

-In the SL settings: choose a launcher for launch by default.

-Press Home and select the default option with "Simply Lockscreen" icon.

In the event that shows the original block before Simply Lockscreen:

-Go to Android settings, go to security and disable the screen original.

V.1.3.2: New version (21/08/2010)

-Bug fixes for the new FC's.

-Added support for the original bar.

-Ability to show the percentage of the battery.

-Auto hidden-weather performance if they are not available (null / none)
[Android Apps and Games] squadseven:
Can't find it on the market. Any chance that you can provide me with the apk?
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Update!

V.1.4:

-Button to disable the original lock screen (2.X only)

-Added support for alarm.

-Added date display.

-Slide to unlock at 90% of the bar.
[Android Apps and Games] Skardy:
Very nice lockscreen.

However, it would be nice toadd options to:

-have the battery percentage without the location (mine is too long and overlaps the percentage)

-have the clock without the temp/weather

PS: on htc legend (official 2.05 unrooted) the "Button to disable the original lock screen (2.X only)" always gives me a FC
[Android Apps and Games] mayurh:
i got fc's also but then i just left it.and went to the app itself later and it worked

so wait awhile and try again
[Android Apps and Games] DirkStorck:
Is it somehow possible to remove the media player buttons?
[Android Apps and Games] angingrich:
Tried a restart and it didn't work... not really too excited about just waiting an hour and seeing how well it works if it won't run at all to begin with =\
[Android Apps and Games] angingrich:
Read up. It's like 5 posts above yours.

Originally Posted by overide88

Updated with fix -> v.2.0.1

-Option to remove media controls.

-Fix component positions.
[Android Apps and Games] DirkStorck:
Thanks you!
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
What Launcher do you use?

Have you tried using different Launchers?
[Android Apps and Games] angingrich:
I'm running CyanogenMod, so I've got ADW. I actually use LPP though.
[Android Apps and Games] lgboy5889:
love the lockscreen. but it bypasses my password that's otherwise active on my normal lockscreen. Also, I live in los angeles, but according to the weather, there's a high chance of snow...
[Android Apps and Games] Nutshell69:
I like the lockscreen, but now the media controls dont seem to work (i tried both starting the media player first and not starting it first) and the Weather continues to not load.

I did notice that when trying to pick a service for the weather - that the list of available services continues to grow (repeats list over and over)
[Android Apps and Games] NueKaede:
It doesn't fit properly on the HTC Wildfire :(
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Can you send me a screenshot for MP? Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Simply Lockscreen v.2.0.2

Added compatibility with Gingerbread

Other bugfixes

Enjoy it :D
[Android Apps and Games] ronnbon:
hi,

tried your lockscreen today on my motorola xt720- unfortunately they didn't like each other.

Home button unlocked the phone, lockscreen reported: cannot find your location and the whole phone went very slow and reacted very strange. It's a great pity because I like the look of it so much... :(

Are there other members with a xt720 here and similar or not similar experiences?
[Android Apps and Games] randalhicks:
Been using your app for a few days

Having my first issue and it seems like a big one, I just uninstalled launcherpro before removing in the settings of lockscreen to use it by default. And now I get a constant force close that I can't get around. Home button won't do anything . Any help? Please?
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Go to the administration of applications, select Simply Lockscreen, at the menu select "Delete defaults" or similar button which is just before the list of permissions

Try it ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Skratt:
What parameters for HTC Hero + physical keys activation issue

Hi There,

Does anybody know what device I should select in the set-up menu when using a HTC Hero ?

@FireZenk: I've installed the previous version then check that all the physical buttons where locked except for the On/Off Button; It worked ! :D However after some time (maybe one or more phone reboot), all Physical buttons were able again to turn on the display which makes the lockscreen unusable.:confused:

As you uploaded a new version, I remove the current one and installed the most recent one to see if my issue was resolved, but it didn't. :(

Do you have any clue on what to do ? (HTC Hero, VillainRom, LauncherPro)
[Android Apps and Games] aschwally:
Good App! Had trouble with Home button....

First, thank you for all your work, FireZenk! :) I was looking for a way to use the slider to go from Sound On to Vibrate, and your app did that and more.

I had one problem the first time I ran it (and found a solution): When I pressed Home and it asked me what to assign the Home button to, I foolishly chose "Home" as the default. Then when I went into the SL settings the launcher list had "Home" as the only option (could not even choose SL). Even after I uninstalled and re-installed SL, I could not get it to give me the option of assigning SL as the default launcher. I could not find any options in Application Settings, either.

This meant that the Home button was always going to bypass Simply Lockscreen, and go right to my desktop!

My solution was to install another Launcher (I doubt it matters which one), and then re-install SL too. Now I had three options when I pressed Home: 1) the new launcher, 2) SL, and 3) Home. I selected SL as the default and uninstalled the other launcher, and all is well. Just in case someone else had the same issue!

Now, if only SL can ignore the rest of the buttons.... No pressure, FireZenk! :D

[Android Apps and Games] :
Look really nice, but there is a problem with the placement of the icons, on my galaxy 3 unfortunaly, the mail icon is cut in the middle
[Android Apps and Games] adam.h.:
It is really nice, I enjoy it. Here are few items which would be good to solve:

I'm using Samsung Galaxy S (Android 2.1):

1. The # of SMS is weird, it should display number of unread SMS-es.

2. The # on received Gmail messages is always 0 (even if the phone shows waiting unread email)

3. It would be really nice to allow more setup options, so I can chose separately if want to see a) SMS notifications b) email notifications c) missed calls notifications - currently I can see all 3 or nothing.

4. I would like to make sure, that when wheather is disabled and email notification is disabled this application does not try to connect over 3G or wifi to get this data (so to make sure my battery will last longer).

Anyway, great job, really. Waiting for new version to upgrade ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Droski:
one issue and a request.

issue: It doesnt let me come out of airplane mode for some reason... im on an hd2 with android rom.

question: is it possible to create an option to choose a wallpaper as my rom does not contain that option.

other than that i love this app. keep up the good work!
[Android Apps and Games] daashali:
Hi

Thanks for your great App. You releaved me from my terrible default lockscreen.

As many people complained Music widget doesnt work so please add an option to desable it at least.

Thanks again
[Android Apps and Games] Greenfieldan:
Can this disable the real lockscreen for root users?
[Android Apps and Games] ErikMil:
Sorry, I have the same issue. I can't access anything due to a constant force close of Simply Lockscreen. Meaning that before I am able to press any other button like home or menu, the force close message appears.

The Milestone is simply blocked by the FC message.

Any workaround? Reboot didn't do anything (of course) since the first message that appears is... FC.

Any idea how to get rid of Simply Lockscreen?

Thanks,

Erik
[Android Apps and Games] rahulkucheria:
Hello dev..

Firstly thanks for this wonderful app...looks clean and great. '

Matches with launcher pro and looks sweet.

There was an option like this fone belongs to someone but doesnt display any name.

And music player too doesnt work
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Upload upgrade V.2.0.4

Player buttons fixed.

Shows the current song.

Now on Android Market.

Enjoy it :D
[Android Apps and Games] blueren:
Neat app! Also, could you tell me which that vibrate/silent/ring control app in the screenshot? :)
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Sorry, but I do not understand the question :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] blueren:
I'm talking about the widget above the screen lock widget..
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Okay, you want to know about it?

Used to switch between modes: Vibration, Silent, and High ... no more mystery.
[Android Apps and Games] blueren:
Oh lol.. I didn't ask correctly. I wanted to know its name. Is it also created by you?
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
All components are part of the app, and yes :)
[Android Apps and Games] ZachLL88:
I like this lockscreen app a lot. But one thing is keeping me from using it.

When i receive a test message it displays the message on the lock screen in the little notification area of the lockscreen, so i unlock go in and read the text, than back out and lock my screen. I than receive another text from the same person and the lock screen now says i have 2 unread texts. I know its something small, but it really annoys me lol. Same thing happens on missed calls.

Once fixed please let me know!! Great lock screen!

I am using a Samsung vibrant, stock, no root.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Samsung Epic 4g

Hey,

I'm running the ACS Syndicate ROM v 1.0.2 on my Samsung Epic 4G. After installing the lockscreen, the images that were supposed to display missed calls/texts didn't show up, and my home button didn't work. Eventually, the app froze my whole phone. After I hard rebooted, the phone would no longer start. I had to flash back to an older nandroid backup.
[Android Apps and Games] billa vimal:
Hi all... i understand this is for Andriod devices. But is there anyway to get this ported for Windows 6.5 version? QVGA?
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Ok, these days I've been testing all of the Launchers (except the paid versions).

The conclusion is that everything works correctly, but lose the extra features of the Home button.

On the other hand, with the ROM MIUI or variants, the app works properly ... I continue investigating possible issues.

Currently working on correcting the Home button and the application of custom backgrounds.

Thanx for the support :)

P.D. Until reaching a final and stable version can not possibly do any port to other systems.
[Android Apps and Games] vrakw:
wow .. look nice and professional.

will give it a try.
[Android Apps and Games] guidud:
Thank-you very much for this wonderful useful lockscreen ! Is there a way of making skins ? I would like to contribue.
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Well for the moment he had expected, but if you'd like to contribute, we can begin to include the skins directly in the APK.

If you or someone are interested on this send me a PM :)

First on-build skin by guidud:

Available in the new update :)
[Android Apps and Games] guidud:
:)

Thank-you for the screenshot I haven't found how to make one with my desire HD not rooted ...

Thank you for your rapidity to.
[Android Apps and Games] willentrekin:
Is there a way to shut off the skin? I much preferred the glassine look, without the AOL-esque icons.
[Android Apps and Games] guidud:
You just have to go to your launcher select simply lockscreen and then you'll find à theme selector just choose default. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] factualpuddle:
i love it so far, but the text for the sms notification seems really grainy? and is there a way to change the transparency?
[Android Apps and Games] angus1357:
I choose Default, keeps going back to the AOL looking theme. May be a bug.
[Android Apps and Games] willentrekin:
Same experience.

Otherwise, great app, though. I'd been loving it until the new theme. Is the new AOL-esque theme called "3D" in the settings?
[Android Apps and Games] angus1357:
i've also noticed when I change the DPI setting for the clock it doesnt change size. is it just me?
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Yes, is called 3D :)

Yes, looks like a bug, try to fix it as soon as possible.

Temporal solution: go to apps aministrator and delete the "data " of the app ;)

I repeat, anyone who wants to design a new skin is invited to send me a PM
[Android Apps and Games] eiKr:
Looks good! Quick question, the volume control, does anyone know how to get that on my home screen? Or a name of an app that would allow me to do it?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] ronnbon:
same with me... where you I go and delete something? The whole apk in data???

and it does not show me unread sms-of course I marked it at settings...
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Currently I am switching to other provider of meteorology more effective with the next version will take a while ... please be patient.

Also comes with 2 new options :D
[Android Apps and Games] SxcKieranGrr:
On the lockscreen if I get a new text it seems to just put a random number down e.g if I have 1 new text it will say I have 12. This is on desire with cyanogenmod 6.1. Other that that really good.
[Android Apps and Games] rotarydial:
Great! Looking forward to these and the Default/3D bug fix! Thanks!:D
[Android Apps and Games] FireZenk:
Does anyone know people who worked with the project MIUI with which to talk about officially supporting MIUI player in my application?

[Android Apps and Games] thapricklycomedian:
I like this lockscreen. Great work, mate!

The only thing I wish is that the user has a chance to eather

-add gmail notification to lockscreen

or

-make an option in settings to choose what mail app the user uses.

In my case, I don´t use the stock mail app. I am using only gmail. Unfortunately it does not show when I receive a mail.

Besides that - I like a lot!
[Android Apps and Games] guidud:
Bravo !

Nice upgrade !

I love the new version. Switching between the skins works very well now ;)

[Android Apps and Games] 21vm:
Hi,

I'm trying to change the skin (for my first work on an android app) but it still does not work.

You wrote :

Once we have the project open in Eclipse replace all the images from the "drawable-hdpi" by the news. Then if we use a new text font for the clock, go to "assets / fonts" remove and replace the existing and the new.

ok, but what do u mean when u say :

The following is going to "res / values / strings.xml"and change the data themselves.

??

And :

Finally changed the name of the application package "addon.simplylock.theme.example" and rename it by replacing "example"with the name of our theme

the one and only change we have to do is changing the name example by the name of the theme we created ??

thx for your help, sorry, noob without supa-power !

[Android Apps and Games] xxos:
Re: State of the Site a better way of finding what one is looking for is essential and case in point I read: Simply Lockscreen Skin Development Kit available but I can't find it ...

Also can't find the post after the post wherein it is established that one needs OI File Manager ... for something.

Re Simply Lockscreen for me the time is occasionally handy other than that it would be good to have a image (like it has) and then the slider could match the 'custom notification bar' and literally right at the bottom with the option of having it invisible would definitely be good.

Thanks ...
[Android Apps and Games] Greenthy:
Looks nice, and alot faster than the widgetlocker.

The home button is a hassle though, but if that's the major problem I'm keeping it on :)

On my galaxy spica (cyanogenmod 2.2) I'm however having a outlining bug it seems:
