Lock-Bot Pro Custom Screens DI

They look awesome. I tried the free version and it seemed to kill the weather animations that happen when you unlock the phone. Do you have that issue? I like the animations.... it gets alot of "i wish I had that" from i-phone users.

I've never had any issues with that. I paid for the full version and love it. It is one of 3 apps that I love and wouldn't live without. Swype, Lock-Bot Pro and Handcent.

Hmmm those look great buy I had lockbot pro but couldn't get it to work. No options to actually set the lock screen for some reason.

When you go into "My Themes" hit menu and then you will see "My Playlist". Click that and you will be able to set one or select all that you want on a rotating basis.

Anyone having any issues with consistency and Lockbot? It seems to work randomly for me. Sometimes it get the HTC Sense lockscreen, sometimes I get Lockbot. Kind of frustrating considering it's a paid app. Also, some times I can use the trackpad to unlock, some times I can't.

Anyone know any fixes for that?

Same issue here with consistency. Sometimes I get the Lockbot unlock screen, other time I get the Sense unlock screen. Only thing I can think that might be causing an issue is that I am using LauncherPro and Sense and don't have either set as the default since I like to switch back and forth depending on my mood. Other than that, can't figure it out. Seems completely random. Trackpad unlock is also flakey, but I expected this based on comments in another thread on this same issue.

yeah lockbot does kill the weather animations. I switched to beatiful home (beautiful widgets) after running lockbot so i can still click on it and see the animations (don't know of any way to make the sense weather widget show the animations after unlock using lockbot)

I tried using LauncherPro but started getting a bunch of FC's. I still have it on the phone, but I'm using Sense for the time being. I don't think the issue with LockBot has anything to do with LauncherPro. It's really strange how random it is. Today has not been a good day for functionality. I had a few LockBot screens this morning, and it's been all Sense unlock since then. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Lockbot Pro kills the weather animations AND all widgets that scroll/flash/update - like Google News Widget - it seems to fail to tell the home screen widgets that the lock screen is off. Sucks cause I'd really like to set a distinct lock screen wallpaper.

That's not true. I've got it installed, and I'm watching my sports ticker scroll as we speak.
