double lock screen

i had just installed the rom and the lock screen was o.k., then after 5 min..(i didn't do any changes) but i had to unlock the screen two times......
first unlock style was that of samsung mobiles and then the second one was the stock ninja style.....
they both overlaped each other.....
it got ok after a normal restart.......

Yea ... that is due to the removal of the HTC Lock screen ... the AOSP Lockscreen sometimes kicks in nd makes a fuss ... ;) ... easy correct is .... just disable holo locker and re-enable it again ... ;) :good:

Please check the problem with the status bar........
.
I have unchecked the "hide status bar" in the settings....
.
When we lock or unlock the desktop(from the "more" in options), the status bar appears on its own(if it was hidden first),
Then whatever activity we do, it doesn't hide back on its own,
.
But when we swipe up to hide it and then again swipe down to show it, and again do some activity, it disappears on its own.......and doesn't come back on its own........

One suggestion....
.
Please look forward to it....
.
I have selected home binding action as "hide dock bar"....
.
During the lock screen, simply pressing home unlocks the screen.....
.
When I disable the home button in holo locker, the problem is solved, but then it does not hide the dock bar.......:eek:
.
Please consider making necessary changes......

In short, the status var doesn't hide on its own....
.
But once we hide it manually, it starts hiding automatically......

You should try to make a partially SenseLess version. It's relatively easy to do so.

I see a bright future in this mod, don't give up and finish it. I would test it but I'm already occupied by CyanogenMod 9, so sorry.

Also you may want to look at my signature.

You can hide the status bar in lock screen in holo locker... As for the other problem... I'll see what I can do... :thumbup::)
