Guest Omega Ra Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Is there a way to get the default WM6.5 slider lockscreen onto the Verizon Omnia 2 i920?? I don't like the boring "press here to unlock" lock screen. So if there is a way to deactivate that screen and get the slider back that would be great.

You can use s2u2. http://www.ac-s2.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Omega Ra Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 You can use s2u2. http://www.ac-s2.com/ yeah I know about that, but until someone can come up with a custom ROM for this phone that frees up a bunch of space I prefer to try to get the standard one back on so I don't have to install yet another app to my device...but I might go that way if it doesn't seem like it will be possible.

Guest dwallersv Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 You can use s2u2. http://www.ac-s2.com/ Not on the 920 if you want to use the bundled Nuance voice command over BT (no MS VC). S2U2 interferes with it so that after the headset channel opens, Nuance starts inconsistenly (not, most of the time), and makes the capability unusable. I'm a big fan of S2U2, and am disappointed that I can't use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Omega Ra Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 I use voice command anyway, but would still prefer to be able to activate the standard WM6.5 slider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shemmy Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 (edited) Solved! Edit the following registry keys in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\LockScreen: Active -> change from 0 to 1 Enable -> change from 0 to 1 Or you can just download and import the following registry file attached (rename to .reg) EDIT: it seems we can only get to use the WM lock from the default (honeycomb) start menu by editing the following HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\StartMenu\DisableLock (change it from 1 to 0)LockScreen.txt Edited December 17, 2009 by Shemmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tylwith Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 you can go to settings personal lockscreen and change the type here between the normal and slider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: I see what you mean, the lock button still does the standard lock, but the lock from the startmenu gives me my slider ;) Edited December 17, 2009 by Omega Ra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dwallersv Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Most likely HKLM\Software and HKLM\System It might be easier to figure out what program or dll is being invoked, and then search the registry on that name. I'll throw my efforts in to this too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dwallersv Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 \WINDOWS\lockscreen.exe edit: only shows up under HLKM>system>TaskMgr>ModuleExcludeList I'll try VJBrisk'ing is and see if that gets us what we want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dwallersv Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 I'll try VJBrisk'ing is and see if that gets us what we want. Success!!!! With S2U2 at least. I don't know what the executable for the standard WM6.5 lock screen is, so I didn't try that. I prefer S2U2 anyway. So, following the instructions here to get rid of the Samsung lock, then using VJBrisk to replace redirect \windows\lockscreen.exe to s2u2.exe, the lock button now activates s2u2 instead of the stupid Samsung lock screen.

I have noticed one odd thing....when locked with 6.5...the buttons aren't locked...only the screen...I can still activate the camera when on the lock screen...

Guest josephsmodaco Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 on the i920... if you install spb mobile shell you can access the original lock screen options. there you can set the lock screen to classic win mo or windows default (which is the 6.5 slider) then you can remove shell if not wanted....

Guest mike6 Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 I haven't been able to find a way to do that yet. Since I use Mobile Shell, I just have the lock widget on my home screen. What specific lock widget are you using? Does it show up on the "Widget menu" or is it a shortcut to a specific program? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
