Finally a working Custom Lock Screen Replacement:

I am a happy camper now, I have been tring since I got my Droid X to find an app that would give a full working custom lock screen, this application is called "Widget Locker" and it seems to work flawlessly and the even better part is that you can add any of you widgets installed on your device to the lock screen and move them just like you are on you systems desktop, it supports Live Wallpapers and most importantly.... It cant be bypassed with the "Home" key like all others that I have tried.  You can have Standard Android, Sense Ui or iPhone designed lock screens and they all works well.
Check it out at the market, the app again is called "Widget Locker" I think its worth a look.

I have been looking for something like this for awhile but I was always searching for lock apps and this one never came up, I am assuming because the name really wasnt clear of what the app really was... I have installed so many app just to find one that worked the way it should, amd to my surprise when I decided to visit a site I havent in some time and they was talking about this app...  After installing free version for about a hour and tested it everyway I could think of, it because clear I had to buy it.
Crazy how thing just fall in your lap when you are not looking..

  • ARD 3 : Custom "Lock Screen Picture" not functional?

    It seems as though things have changed with the way that the Lock Screen Picture feature is handled from ARD 2, whereas now the only working solution I have found is to swap out the Lock.jpg file located in "/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/AppleVNCServer.bundle/Contents/S upport/LockScreen.app/Contents/Resources".
    Obviously this is not an elegant solution, but at the present it seems to be the only approach I have found that works.
    Has anyone been able to get the documented approach to work? Is there a different way that is easier to deploy?

    As per the subject of this post, that technique does not seem to work now.
    I've attempted the following:
    - a custom "Lock Screen Picture" w/ and w/o an extension in /Library/Preferences
    - w/ Quicktime & Preview as the associated applications
    - a copy of the original Lock.jpg from the package as the file
    None of these things work, whereas the approach I mention earlier does.
    I guess I should have reiterated in the body of my message that the solution you point out is not working (at least for me).

    FYI - it is still page 139 in the final manual, but now part of Chapter 8.

  • How do I set a customized lock screen in iOS7?

    How do I set a customized lock screen in iOS7?

    Thank you, but I need to put my name and contact info on an image to be the lock screen.  It is what my university really really wants us to do.  I used to be able to make a PowerPoint or Keynote page, save it as a jpeg, email it to myself and open it on the iPad, send it to cameral roll, then have the option to set it as the lock screen there.  Can't do that any more.

    Thank you for that update.
    I would next backup your device to iTunes with this article:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    And restore it first as a new device, and verify that it works properly, then restore from your backup with the same article below to ensure that it is still working.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

  • Custom lock screen GPO not working for domain users

    I have a WS2012 standard server with W8 Pro clients. I'm trying to force the lock screen to a .jpg however it's not working, it leaves the users with just a standard blueish screen.
    I have the "force a specific default lock screen image" enabled with the path \\MRS-DC\WP\mrc_lock_screen.jpg
    The GPO is being applied according to the results wizard, however no image. What gives?

  • Ipod touch 4th generation camera doesn't work after smashed screen replacement

    I have an ipod touch 4th generation that i smashed to screen with a torch, i got the screen replaced however my camera shutter will NOT open at all, i can go into camera roll and everything BUT the shutter wont open and the slide to go from camera to video just blinks a few times. Ive tried everything from turning it off and on(note my off/top button doesn't work) I had problems with the camera before i had the screen replaced but now it doesn't work at all. And will resetting and/or restarting it through iTunes delete ANY of the conent i have on my Ipod?
    Any help much appreciated as i can NOT afford to get it fixed at Apple!!

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    In that case take it back to the people who replaced the screen. They likely messed something up unless what broke the screen and broke the camera.

  • Music buttons not working in lock screen on my iPhone 4 after iOS7 update.

    After I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS7, the music buttons like PLAY, REWIND and FORWARD are not working in the locked screen as well as on swipe up menu. Any resolution please?

    hi there
    i had a problem with my wifes iphone 4s, today morning while travelling to work i changed a setting on repeat option and changed it to repeat artist, it was fine until when i finish my work and on my way back i found songs are not playing anymore, lots of stop signs next to my song list, play/pause button not working, album arkwork keep moving from one to another on its own, so after i reach home i try to do some research on Apple support communities, try to soft reset my phone closing all the apps on background didnt work, also note that control centre music player was not working as well. none of the solutions worked. after trying for two hours i found out that the trouble is in repeat options , so i changed it from repeat artist to repeat off. and the music start playing as usual, but i still have those stop buttons next to the songs i tried to play earlier. At least it fixed temporarily. please also note that in the meantime i tried to sync my phone with the pc and suddenly its start syncing all the songs again assuming there were no songs on my iphone.  so guys i think soft reset might not help all the time but try to remember what settings you changed recently and change it back to the original option, not sure ,but it might help.

  • Custom "Lock Screen Picture" not functional?

    Hi, the Remote Desktop manual method of changing the lock screen picture still doesn't work for me.
    Am I doing something wrong?
    Method from Apple Remote Desktop Manual:
    1 Create a picture using a graphics program, such as AppleWorks.
    2 Save the picture in PICT, TIFF, GIF, JPEG, or any other QuickTime-compatible static image
    format.
    QuickTime-compatible movies or QuickTime VR objects cannot be used.
    3 Name the picture “Lock Screen Picture”.
    4 Copy the “Lock Screen Picture” file to /Library/Preferences/ on the client computer.
    PowerMac G5 Dual 2.3ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    The method listed in the manual has never worked and still doesn't, as far as know, with 3.1, though I haven't tested it with 3.1 myself yet. The only working solution I have found is to swap out the Lock.jpg file located in
    "/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/AppleVNCServer.bundle/Contents/Su pport/LockScreen.app/Contents/Resources".
    Regards.

  • Drop down notification not working during lock screen

    Hello, I just switched over from the iPhone and I wasn't sure if there was a trick to it. But when I'm in the lock screen and I swipe down nothing happens. My drop down notifications won't work. Is this normal on a Sony phone? I'm using a c6906. Android 4.2.2 and the build number is 14.1.g.2.257
    Does that make a difference or am I missing the trick to do it?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    silly question but what lock screen are you using? Maybe it has to do with a more secure lock screen than the simple swipe... my assumption is that if youre using a pincode, it wont let you swipe down notifications since youve opted for a more secure form of security. 
    Yes ive tested it. if youre using a pin or a pattern it wont let you show the notification pannel Great security imho ;P i anyway dont bother with key locks.. if anyone wants to get at your phone they will.. simple as.. its a deterent sure.. but most folks that bother with phone theft know how to get around it... 
    Hope this solves the issue.

  • Why doesn't the camera work the lock screen sometimes?

    When I launch the camera app from the lock screen on my iphone (4), one of three things happens.
    Sometimes the preview is really small, like this
    http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac1/drtoffeejr/IMG_2358.png
    http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac1/drtoffeejr/IMG_2359.png
    this doesn't affect the actual size of the pictures however. Meaning if I take a picture while it's like that then swipe over to look at it, it is the normal size. I have also found that this part can be fixed by switching the the front camera then back to the rear camera.
    The second thing that could happen is that the animation of the lens opening will freeze while it's still closed, meaning I can't see anything besides the closed lens picture.
    The third thing that could happen is that it works fine.
    These problems only seem to happen when I launch the camera from the lock screen as I have never had anything like that happen when I use the app after unlocking my phone.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    That is a new one. I haven't seen that before. You might have a hardware problem. Also may want to try to restore the phone and see if that fixes the problem. Also have you restarted the phone by holding the home button and the sleep/wake switch ignoring the swipe to power off message and then powering up the phone again?

  • Control center and camera not working on lock screen

    On the lock screen my control center or camera sometimes doesn't pull up! Also the touchscreen doesn't work sometimes while just using the phone like when typing or in a game. I've tried resetting it and restarting it! Is this a software bug? Will there be an update To fix this?

    Hi Trevor318,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the touchscreen does not respond sometimes and control center doesn't come up. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.
    If the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond to touch - Apple Support
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a great day,

  • Camera button not working from locked screen.

    Recently I tried to take a photo from my locked screen. Usually I just double click my home button and the camera pops right up and I can take a picture. This time though, the camera icon does pop up, but when I go to click it the camera icon just "jumps" and will not open the camera option. It's very annoying for when I just want to take a picture, now I have to go through the motion of unlocking my phone and going to the camera. OH, also on the locked screen, the camera icon has two lines, both over and under it.
    How can I fix this, is it in the settings somewhere?

    Touch the camera icon and scroll all the way up. You do not have to double click the home button.

  • Music no work in lock screen

    I'm having a slight problem with my iPod 5th gen iOS seven when in the Lock screen it won't let me change or pause the song how can I fix this because I don't know how but I fixed it yesterday but now it's doing it again

    im pretty sure that means that do not disturb is turned on. if your on iOS7 then swipe up from the bottom and then make the moon at the top of that isnt illuminated. If its in iOS6 then you have to go into settings then into notification settings and then you'll see do not disturb in there

  • Notification center and control center only work from lock screen on my iPhone 6

    When I try to swipe down to get notification center or up to get control center from any screen but my lock screen, I can't.  Is there a setting or something that I need to change?

    That is correct. Are you starting from off the screen area itself? You cannot start from on the screen. You need to be just off of the screen to begin. See if that helps. If not, then do a reset on the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. Check operation after that.
