Help LauncherPro and Widgetlocker

So I just started using LauncherPro Plus, and now I can't make widgetlocker home my default like I used to. When I do, it just reverts my home screens back to sense. Any ideas?
 
You need to reset all of your defaults in your phone.

Then when it asks, make Widget Locker your default. The first time you unlock, it should ask if you want to unlock to Sense or LP, pick LP.
 
also, Is there a way to remove the "fly in" effect when unlocking the phone?
With widgetlocker, when I unlock the phone, the sense bar at the bottom remains there as the homescreens fly in.
 
Menu - Settings - Applications - Manage Applications

Find Launcher Pro and click Clear Defaults.

You may need to do this on Widget Locker, too, depending on which one is really set.
 
I've done this a few times, but every time I set widgetlocker as my default, I get no option to choose which launcher, it defaults to sense
 
Okay... it should have popped up the first time you unlocked. You probably hit sense and didn't even realize it. So now you gotta manually do it.

Try this:

Open Widget Locker app (you need tool mode).

Hit Menu on phone then settings

Behavior

Home Application

Launcher Pro

Try this:

Menu

Settings

Display

Animation

Turn off window animations.

That should take away the "fly in" effect.

I've been tinkering with the settings and can't figure it our either. If anyone figures it out please post!
 
Has anyone else noticed with Widget Locker 1.2.5 and LauncherPro 0.7.8 that there is a lot of lag with LP?

If I don't use my phone for a while and unlock it, it takes a few seconds for LP to load my screens.

Also, it seems like Widget Locker is causing my other applications to go into a sleep mode too. I'm not getting frequent updates with Twitter (set to 30 mins) and I have to manually refresh it.

Just curious...
 
I was using WidgetLocker + LauncherPro Plus and there is a definite lag & battery drain for me. I literally just disabled it, and there is a significant improvement. I don't own an Incredible, but saw this thread and wanted to throw in my 2 cents.
 
I have LPP, I don't have widgetlocker. But when I choose LPP as my default and then hit home, it always takes me back to sense, but it didn't use to, whats wrong with it, lol.
