    fighting with the lockscreen

    As another option, I used NotifierPro Plus from ProductiGeekery along with WidgetLocker. It seems to be working decently well so far (I still think Windows Phone 8 did the lock screen better than Android or iOS). My lock screen has the time, the weather, upcoming calendar appointments, and...

    fighting with the lockscreen

    That LockerPro seems great! I guess it doesn't support music control yet though? I'm using WidgetLocker after trying to do the very same thing the OP is with my new Galaxy S3. It can do Unread notifications for Gmail, the Samsung mail client, and the Messaging app. I don't think it supports...

    Hello all, I'm a recent (as in today) S3 owner (T-Mobile). I used to be on the iPhone 4 and on Windows Phone 8 (for a week). So far the S3 has been great, but I had a couple of questions I'm hoping you could help me with: 1) In Windows Phone, there was a way where I could setup multiple linked...
