I personally think that widgetlocker is quite good with customizing features and all those abilities. Though it lacks with response and overall use … the stock lockscreen works as it should, and the widgetlocker lags and sometimes causes the phone to freeze as well as just seems to be un-responsive all together at times.

I used it for a while and I loved it, but one reason I had to go back to the original lockscreen was that when I use Navigation (which I use a lot), the original lockscreen doesn’t appear, but the WidgetLocker lockscreen did, which was a pain in the butt to bring up the screen while driving.

I use MIUI locker and haven’t had issues with battery life. Not as much customization offered, but plenty of user created themes.

Yea ditto on that, I’ve REALLY wanted to like it but on my DX I could always tell a noticeable effect on the battery. In fact, I can tell a noticeable effect on the battery with other similar apps plus since it doesn’t load right away I sometimes have to wait for it to load before unlocking the phone (unlock the built-in lockscreen.(

Yesterday SmartShift Lockscreen, today Widgetlocker. Are there any others that are better than these two?

Has the battery life/performance improved? I used a previous version on the Bionic with extended battery and it took a 12-14 charge down to 8-10 hours. Would love to have it on my Nexus, but battery life suffers enough without adding another drain to it…

Use it on my Droid X, but not my Touchpad running Cm9 ICS . Still love Widgetlocker though. As for the Xda thread, I think the main issue holding people back is the fact that the thread is too convoluted and themes get lost in a sea of comments.

Have you not used an AOKP ROM? It has the Octo option, adding 8 options to the lock.
