Is there a way to have a camera shortcut from the lock screen if a pin lock is enabled? I would guess not, but would be a sweet mod. I've got kids and am always taking pics in the moment, but I have to use a pin lock, so I do miss the shot some times.

Try using widgetlocker from the app store. You can set up custom wallpaper and add widgets and shortcuts to it. The camera app bypasses the lock screen

Is there a way to completely disable the slide to lock screen everytime the screen times out?
It tends to get annoying time to time and also since I use a Folio case, I would like to just open the cover, press the power and it be ready to use.
No and this will not been changed.
I installed another options which lock and screen off with the sensor but still the screen lock pop-up.

look into the market for app called ( Keyguard Disable )
No lock from the market is the best, or if you flash cm7 there's an option to disable it.

I am using Antilock-simple and serves the purpose....
like natious, no lock works great for me.
I believe some of the other apps stop the tab from sleeping

Lockscreen
Hey guy's I've found that nolock does work, but it also shut off the availability of any other Play Store alternatives. I found that freezing or deleting the sprint OMADM.apk will disable stock and also alow any after market lockscreens such as holo's to work, only thing is the pin or password, or face unlock.
Hi, I'm using slim 4.0, I like the 4 prong app selector lock screen but would like to use, prior to that screen, an actual lock screen like the pattern to make my phone slightly more secure. Is this possible? How?
Thanks much,

It's possible to have the Slim lock screen as well as the pattern. To activate the pattern lock screen, go to Settings and then Security then pick Pattern under the Screen lock section. Then go back to Settings and ASS (Advanced Slim Settings) and pick the Lockscreen options and scroll down near the bottom and check Show lockscreen before unlock.
It will show the Slim screen where you can select one of your four apps, but to launch the app you will need to draw the pattern. I realize that this doesn't exactly answer your question since you wanted the pattern before Slim, but it will still make your phone more secure by requiring the pattern to fully unlock the phone.
I've got Widget Locker installed and it's extremely better than the default lockscreen. The only issue is the delayed and sometimes inoperable "auto swipe" feature. It likes to work if it isn't in landscape mode.
Is there any way to remove the stock blur lockscreen and replace it with Widget Locker without using easy-wake?
Edit: I'm using Maverick v4.5 if it makes a difference.

But that will also remove the pattern lock from stock. (right??)
I tried numerous apps and hacks to remove the stock lockscreen while remaining pattern lock. There's one app that does it but there's always a delay or glitch.
The one who thought you need to unlock 2x when using pattern is retarted

It's pretty standard procedure for touchscreen devices, isn't it? My iPad makes me swipe to unlock then type in my lockscreen passphrase almost all of the time, as does my iPod Touch.
I prefer it this way, actually. Muscle memory always has my thumb poised to swipe to unlock, and it's easier for me for the procedure to be consistent rather than different when the pattern lock time has passed. It's also easier when I need to tel my wife what to do when we are driving and I get a text message...

No it's not normal. Entering your password/pattern lock already unlocks your phone - there's no need to do a swipe before that.
If only widgetlocker had it's own built-in security features

My phone makes me do it twice. I have to swipe, then put in my pattern lock. Or vice versa I can't remember, it drove me nuts so I removed the pattern

Close, but this removes the passcode/pattern/password lock. Its almost the same as using the easy wake option without hardware buttons waking the device.
It might not be possible but I'm looking to keep the passcode if it is.

Even with widgetlocker it's still a bit buggy/glitchy. Pretty often the stock lockscreen comes up for me or it flashes for 1sec. Very annoying.
Also when you draw your pattern wrong it will always show the stock lockscreen.
I wish there was a way to JUST remove the lockscreen blur slide screen, without removing the security features
Widget Locker bugs out on me too. It sometimes seems to skip the lock screen and auto swipe on my pass code screen, pushing a bunch of numbers.
Either way, I'll just SeekDroid my phone for security and use Widget Locker until I find a better solution.

So I tried a few aozp Roms and came back to a stock based ROM due to issues. One thing I love about the aosp Roms is the lock screen notifications. I tried nils lock screen and while it is similar I am unable to tap the notification and go right to the app. I still have to swipe to unlock my phone.
Has anyone found a tweak or app that will do that; tap the lock screen notification and then go right into the app.

I installed KK Locker and it gives you the option to disable default locker so you don't have to unlock two screens. This does work when the screen goes to sleep on its own, however, when I hit the power button to manually put it to sleep, when I turn it back on I have to unlock both the default Sammy lock screen and KK locker. Do any of you know if there is something that I can do to find and disable the Sammy lock screen? Thanks in advance for any help

Have you gone into settings/device/lockscreen and selected NONE for the screenlock settings? Disabling through that 3rd party app is sometimes not enough.

It was my understanding that the Sammy lockscreen could not be disabled...but maybe I misunderstood.
