I will like to develop an App which modifies LockScreen of Android. I have read in some forums that it is not supported as yet in the SDK but there are some applications available that does exactly that.

One can surf Screen Suite Lock Screen

Can someone let me know is it actually possible to customize LockScreen and implement our own way of Lock Screen?

Regards

Sunil

  • Its not a duplicate. That post was posted by someone else. I just wanted to know how the application mentioned above does the same thing. If you know the answer then please let me know. – sunil Jun 02 '10 at 05:18

It is possible to have views displayed above the lock screen and to make it dismiss the lock screen. It's a dirty solution, but the only one as long as there is no api to replace the lock screen.
