Holo Locker Plus for Android
I use holo launcher hd and holo locker both with plus features activated. Great work! I am having an issue with holo locker and sense 4.0 though. After pressing the lock button holo locker does not kick in right away it stutters between htc sense lock and holo locker. Love your laucher and locker but we need a bug fix to this issue in an update.
Once I'd disabled the inbuilt lock app (on Samsung JellyBean I can) it worked perfectly. Even before that it was pretty solid - sometimes the inbuilt locker would activate first only to be replaced by this one after a second or two. That's not the app's fault - it's doing its best with the constraints on android.
Holo locker is brilliant but only when it works. Since upgrading to Jelly Bean, Holo doesn't work as when I press any button to light up the screen it automatically unlocks the phone. Only way I can get it to work is disable the home button altogether which I don't want to do. PLEASE FIX
Every so often, unlocking from this lock screen doesn't go to what was open before the phone went idle - it opens the multitasking list. Pressing back out of the multilock screen goes back to the original app that was open before the phone went idle. This issue makes using the lock screen fairly annoying, so I cannot recommend it in the form it is now.
All I can say is that this app was a nice try. Too glitchy to make it worth while. Experienced problems with the app not opening or closing when the power button was pressed or the app would force stop on its own. Galaxy stock lock screen is much better Imo. If it was only possible for a refund...
No updates!! Its a good locker,all that i and a lot of other people want. It works well but i cant for the life of me install the wallpaper of my choice! It might b a google thing but its friggin annoying! Are u guys still alive no updates since 2012! I did pay for this app after all.
Not sure why the free version works better. Never had a single problem with the free holo. Once I payed it cause I wanted the notification option, the app sucks. Wont work 50% of the time, have to launche the app manually to get it to start working again. Its frustrating, especially knowing its the payed version. Im going to use the free for now until they find a solution for this. Not happy at all.
For some reason it automatically closes whenever I try to change alternate wallpapers please fix this and also theres some bugs with the lock screen, sometimes it comes up but sometimes the stock lockscreen comes up
It looks pretty, but is kind of twitchy. It doesn't play well with doubletwist's lock screen so I had to unlock to control my music. Occasionally I would wake my phone and see whatever I was working on latest. When I'd try to do anything, then Holo would kick in and lock the phone. Also seemed to hurt battery life. I do the occasional email, text, and listen to music. I seemed to be burning through battery about 2x what I would normally with Holo active.
So far it's been alright, though it really does need more shortcuts. Also, it's a good idea to disable your stock lock screen from settings > lock screen > then choose none. I find it helps prevent the app confusion like when it sometimes brings up your stock lock screen instead of the holo one. Also, my security lock option doesn't work.. Not sure why.
Overrides lockscreen, but not successfully. I currently have the lockscreen unlocked in the holo settings but annoyingly it is still active. I'll have to uninstall this app to stop it overriding
Glitches a little sometimes.wish it had its own password lock screens with the same style. I dont like the stock password lock screens on my galaxy. Still a good locker that I use
The security lock works only if the phone is locked immediately. On my HTC One S if I set the phone security to lock after a time period it never works.
I just bougth the full version and ill like it so much BUT when the phone is off and i press power or home bottom to turn on the phone go off again and i have to press twize to c my screen. 1 star untill u guys fix the problem or refund pls
Looks ok but still very very buggy. Sometimes freezes my phone or just doesn't load. Crashes every once in a while too forcing the phone to reset with an error message. Doesn't really reach its potential at its current state.
However in my experience it's been very glitchy, I have to unlock my phone twice, one with your locker, and once again with stock. When I use any other direction besides unlock it takes me back to the unlock screen after I'm done also. It's a great app but it needs a ton of work.
Purchased the plus version so I can use my own wallpaper but it won't load the pictures in preview, nor can I crop the pictures. It also intermittently gets disabled by itself. Emailed the developer but no response whatsoever...!
Just bought it today, worked fine up until then. Force closes any time the lock screen is present. Dissapointing. Hope its fixed soon.
Integrates and works perfectly with the os and offers great customization options. Will give 5 stars if it offers the option to display more then 4 shortcuts, it has the space for at least 8. Keep up the great work and take it to the next level!
A great app idea, however it rarely works and it won't let me change the background of my lockscreen, therefore I basically bought the plus upgrade for no reason. Disappointing.
On Droid X with the plus version, the stock un-locker appears randomly with security lock. The free version never did this. Please fix.
Pressing the home button or the power button brings me to the multitasking menu instead of the lock screen half the time. Totally defeats the purpose of a lock screen. Please fix.
This lockscreen does almost everything I want from a lockscreen app. Add notifications for all apps for 5 stars.
Glitches a little sometimes.wish it had its own password lock screens with the same style. I dont like the stock password lock screens on my galaxy. Still a good locker that I use
I bought this so I could have the option to use a custom background. It won't let me set one at all. Emailed developer and didn't get a response
I would love to be able to change the color of the icons to match my theme, especially the little "lock." Would that be something possible in the future?
Try disabling the "enable security lock" feature to get rid of the millisecond screen flash.
I find that after heavy use of my phone the lock screen doesn't come up when I press the power button, it just goes straight to the home screen and then five seconds later the lock screen reappears.
Best recreation of Jelly Bean Lock Screen I've seen on Play... But c'mon! Where's the Lock Screen Widgets and Locking Sounds? GO LOCKER has them...FOR FREE! For 2 bucks a pop, you could give more recent support than OCTOBER 2012!
The screen dims for no reason on the lockscreen. The lockscreen sometimes works, sometimes it just goes to the home screen with out a particular reason. The notification icons on the lockscreen turn on and off like a blink when you turn on the screen. Basically now I understand why there isn't a refund option for the app.
Screen sometimes turns back off quickly when pressing power or home button on GS3, have to press again for screen to come back on. Also sometimes original lock screen shows up, have to open app to re-enable it.
Every now and again it briefly shows the normal lock screen before this one works. Also when I go to open the camera from the lock screen it opens the pin number as I've got it set but the screen goes to landscape then back to portrait before you can put the password in. Please fix this as I like the app Then I'll give it 5 stars
Waste . No use .I could not able to see unread count on locked screen.waste of money. Waste . No use .I could not able to see unread count on locked screen.waste of money.don't waste our money buy showing screen shots.useless product.
Plus features are great however the app has a few bugs that need updating. I still haven't figured out I have to unlock my phone twice to get to the security code screen. Holo unlock> default unlock>password screen. Quite annoying actually.
Add a sound toggle switch and a way to see the battery left and it would be perfect.
Allows me to set the options but then does not carry them through. For instance, it allows me to pick the alternate background but then does not use it.
It glitches straight to home screen sometimes. And also IT NEEDS LOCKSCREEN WIDGETS. It's really inconvenient to have to unlock my phone to skip music tracks. pls update!!
This is a nice lockscreen app. It is not as full featured as the lockscreen built in to Roms like AOKP or Cyanogen but for the person who is stuck on stock and doesn't have access to those it's good. and unlike Go-Locker it doesnt' come bundled with ads and solicitations for their other software.
Nice, but l can't open sms from lock screen and K9 mail also didn't work.

I just purchase the latest version of Holo Locker Plus for my new Sony Xperia Miro running ICS 4.0.4. The rest of the applications runs fine but for the unread count apps icons are overlapping the Clock, Date and Alarm text. Also, the Security Lock feature does not work either. I downloaded Holo Notifier and could not find any setting to correct this issue, as well. Kindly look into this.
