Looking to replicate HTC 3D lock screen

[JohnnySebre]

Hello all, I just changed phones (Nexus 5) after using my HTC EVO 3D for a while. I am hoping to get the same features I had on the HTC lock screen.

As a new user here I cannot post a link to a pic, but you can just google image htc 3d lock screen for a preview.

I want to be able to access quickly a few applications like 4 I had with the HTC. Also, when music is playing, I want to be able to pause or hit next or previous.

Which lockscreen apps would allow me to do that?

Hi JohnnySebre, and welcome to Android Forums

There are a lot of lockscreen options available on the Play Store. For what you're seeking, I think I would suggest trying out WidgetLocker. It's one of the oldest (and best) lockscreen replacements for Android, and (based on the promo shots at least) looks like it gets at least kind of close to the HTC lockscreen you want:

Hope this helps



Edit: By the way, music playback controls should automatically appear on the stock Nexus lockscreen anytime music is playing. The same goes for videos via Netflix, Youtube, etc (quite handy when you're using Chromecast!)

I ended up going for the Burst Go Locker Theme and I'm happy! WidgetLocker appeared nice but its not free. Sorry for the late reply, thanks for posting!

I, too miss skeumorphism, but I am quite enjoying the flatter TouchWiz compared to its gingerbread - like counterpart.
