Widget Locker incoming call

Okay so i have searched extensively and it seems i am trying to do the reverse of what most people want widget locker to do.

I dont want to have to unlock widget locker and my pattern before being able to answer my phone. I want the incoming call screen to just show up.

Problem is no matter what settings i fiddle with i cannot get this to work.

I thought the critical setting was the Hide incoming call setting. (under the popups sections). However wether this is checked or unchecked widget locker pops up first which is kind of annoying.

Am i doing something wrong?
 
I guess you do, because even if widget locker is active on my phone, I dont have to go through my pattern before opening a call. But then I dont have a lockscreen enabled on my phone apart from widgetlocker. For security, I just use an invisible slider.
 
Well even if i disable my pattern lock i still have the same problem. Widget locker shows up before my incoming call screen. I just wont have the pattern lock behind widget locker.

There is something else going wrong here. Nobody else has had a problem like this?
 
If you go into edit mode in Widget Locker, under the Settings and then Popup menus there's an option "Hide Incoming Calls" which world cause the behaviour you described - do you have this checked?
 
No, it is not checked. And i thought that would solve my problem at first also, but neither when it is checked or unchecked will it alter the outcome...
 
It shouldnt be status bar. I have my status bar hidden and whenever i receive a call i still get the incoming call screen.
 
And no i do not have the status bar hidden, it provides way to much functionality. this is so weird, im going to uninstall and reinstall... see if that changes though i doubt it.
