Is there any 3rd party lock screens that can use the fingerprint scanner? Only I really want Moto X style active notification lock screen but still use my fingerprint to unlock

CM Locker works too.
Hi locker is a new one that looks promising.

Next lockscreen is a good one. It's incredibly reliable!

It is really nice, specially combined with microsoft launcher but, I today installed this launcher on my Nubia Z17 mini and found problem, if I want to use fingerprint unlock I need to have enabled stock lock screen, when I disable it I can only set up pattern or pin lock on Next, it is really annoying issue that it wont support fingerpint unlock, I am quite dissapointed.
Is there a lock screen with all these situations that can modify lockscreen clock size and color or even font?

I know many people here have reported lag associated with the stock lockscreen that comes with the device. I was curious to know that if anyone has tried a new lockscreen and seen better results? Such as installing a vanilla AOSP lockscreen in place of the blur one and see if it makes any difference?
I dont know if the lockscreen is an actual .apk you can change out easily or not, as i have not poked around myself, but i do know that when i owned my incredible many people were switching out there sense lockscreens for vanilla ones and it didnt seem like a big deal
+1 for this question / desire. I too would like to switch out the lockscreen (and indeed some other APKs/items) for "stock" if possible...
Well, I'll tell you this. I use ADW launcher and have not noticed any lag at the lock screen. I've also seen others using custom launchers that also have said they notice no lag.
I've used adw and launcher pro and still have lag on the lock screen on 2.2

Go look up Widget Locker. It's a sexy lockscreen widget that removes lag COMPLETELY (it actually disables the android lockscreen and you use it instead. Works fansmic, allows tons of widgets on it, including shortcuts to your favorite apps fast, and security locks.
$1.99 in market - search widget locker.
The only thing with Widget Locker -- in my experience -- is that turning on the phone sometimes shows the default lockscreen for a second before fading into widget locker.
Does the home button bypass widget locker?

No lag using flyscreen either.

If you disable screen lock in Location & Security in the settings, you don't get that issue anymore.
I had the same gripe about it until I found that option to uncheck.

I didn't find the option to disable screen lock, but I turned it off using extended controls widget, which should have the same effect. Either way, thanks for the tip!
Not that this has anything to do with your op but htc does not make the droidx as per your signature. Thought you might want to know.

I don't have this option, but I downloaded "No Lock" from the marketplace and it works great with Flyscreen. (I'm using the Froyo leak posted recently)
Hey Guys,
Looking for some new lockscreens. Would really like the froyo 2.2 lockscreen from the droid x or D2. I like the looks of those slider bars.
Does anyone know if this is available or ones like it?
I dont know if its possible to replace the actual system lockscreens ... I know that WidgetLocker has those Motorola Froyo Lockscreen Setups, but well, its a external solution, the internal Lockscreen will not be replaced at all ...
one is called Lockbot

batmania15: since the latest lockscreen gestures update (in CM 0.04-10.11.29) I'm not using the unlock bars at all. You should check it out...

I tried the lockscreen gestures but didnt like them. I had one set for S and one set for B and everytime I drew the B it launched the one for S.
The default sensitivity was set too low, you could simply fix it for you by setting it to 3 or higher.
In 0.04-10.11.29, the default is now 3.

i think widget locker is a perfect choice
i m using it since i got the phone
While Widget Locker is a nice feature to have I think the Milestone just can't handle it. 256mb and if you throw a few widgets on it or a few widgets in your Launcher Pro/ADw, your home screen will redraw 24/7. I noticed like a 2x redraw rate with WidgetLocker. It's nice, but our phones can't handle it.
Need 512mb ram damnit.
sorry to hi-jack, but aren't you the Batmania15 from the MOTO Milestone support forums?
Any word on official FroYo?
i have another sort of question about lockscreen.
is there a way to have a picture on lockscreen different to the background picture?
You can set an alternative wallpaper i widget locker for the lock screen

Nadlabak,
The gesture lockscreen is great! Thanks for this.
Is it possible to use your gestures lock instead of standard Android visible pattern functionality? I mean to secure lock screen via gesture only. I ask because if you turn it on, then you can use gesture OR standard swipe unlock (so it's not securing the phone).
Thanks in advance for any sugestions!
Yes, you can turn off standard unlock slider option in the cyanogen settings.

Good night.
I have been researching this subject for a while and I find no solution.
I would like the pattern lock screen in my S2 to show my live wallpaper (or a different lwp) instead of a regular image.
The new S3 pulls this out easily. How can I have this in the S2? I. tried several launchers but they do not change this option.
Best regards
Before your S3 I dont see any similar option in a stock lockscreen. Maybe a third-party lockscreen app can do this trick. Such as the GO locker may introduce some animated components, but I'm not sure if lwp work.
Anyway, most people want to start using their devices immediately, so I dont see a point why to stare at the lock screen for minutes.

live wallpaper in pattern lock
I know its late and you may figure it out or forgot it.
You should go to settings___ display ___ wallpaper
and choose lock and home wallpaper then you'll see
live wallpapers
Hi guys
Wondered if someone might be able to help. I have just started using Minimalistic text, and I love it. What I want to do is use the clock widget on my lock screen. I am running ARHD 51. I know I cant add it to the first default lock screen on sense, but can add it to the side screen. But that is no good as it doesn't come up straight away when you wake the phone. I have managed to go into the system app folder and backed up the htc sense lock screen, and then uninstalled it, this has given me the default android lock screen. By doing this I was hoping I might be able to add widgets to the very first screen, but it wont let me change it at all. I want to try and avoid using a third party lock screen from the play store and stick with the originals if poss, I use the Greenpower app to toggle the Data and wifi when I lock my screen, but third party apps don't work to well with it.
So can anybody help me get the minimalistic text clock onto the lock screen.:fingers-crossed:
BLU r1 hd 16/2 rooted & debloated V8.3 rom
Good day, I've noticed that while using an MP3 player I'm able to manipulate the lockscreen by displaying the album art. I'm guessing it's the same route that the Amazon ads used.
Are there any apps just for wallpapers that I can use to have a lockscreen wallpaper that's different from the home screen? Or has anyone developed any alternative way to change the lockscreen wallpaper?
Would really appreciate the help! Thanks!
I do not know of a native way to change the wallpaper on the stock lockscreen but if you aren't opposed to using a third party lockscreen, then just download one from the playstore. I currently use zui lockscreen on my BLU R1 HD. It works great and you can customize the lockscreen wallpaper to whatever you want. Just remember if you do decide to use a third party lockscreen, then you will have to disable your system lock/password/pin. Set system lock to swipe.

Yes that works but then you end up with a double lockscreen. You have to unlock custom locker and still swipe the stock locker. Which by the way still loads notifications and it just looks weird.
How do the MP3 players do it and how did Amazon? They kept the transparent stock lockscreen but displayed an image behind it.

Actually, I do not have that double lockscreen issue, at all. My current lockscreen operates as though it is the native lockscreen. Although, it would be interesting to know how the issue at hand was implemented by BLU/ Amazon. I however am just a user of cellphones, not a programmer or anything. You should try ZUI Locker and see if it does give you that double lockscreen. BTW, I'm rooted and de-bloated so I don't know if your phone still has ads being displayed. If you still have the ads, then you may still get that double lockscreen you mentioned.

you don't have the double lock screen? Is your Blu the prime version that you rooted? Can you set your stock lockscreen to "none" or just "swipe"?
I'm not seeing any ads at all anymore it's just the stock lockscreen just remained. I unlocked and rooted using @mrmazak tutorial. Which one did you use?
Edit - I tried ZUI Locker like you suggested and it WORKED!! I'm in shock. This is the first one that has managed to get rid of the stock lockscreen. Thanks a lot!
