Sprint galaxy s3 mods - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I have a rooted sprint samsung galaxy s3 and i want to be able to control the music from the lock screen and open the camera app without entering a passcode first. I am rooted, but i do not want to use widgetlocker or flash a new rom. I like it stock but i just need those two mods

Most music apps can be controlled with the pull down bar. Which is accessible while on the lockscreen.

That's Play Music. The stock music app does this as well.
Within the lock screen settings there is a camera quick access toggle.

The answer is WidgetLocker its in the app store its a lockscreen alternative in which you can add whatevet you like to it.
See my screenshot. I keep it basic: photo, unlock slider, Pandora widget. You can add whatever you like just as you would add on the homescreen
This is exactly what you are looking for

No there is not unfortunately thats why I use widgetlocker and fyi widgetlocker uses very little almost none existence phone resources I know people usually dont like third party apps because it might cause battery drain or affect cpu and or memory but this app does not

Its because you have a lock on it. If you didnt use a lock and had no security on it then you can pull down your notification bar

Unfortunately, accessing pull-down notifications from the lockscreen while using this lockscreen doesn't work. At least for me on Darkside v8 ROM. Maybe a restart would fix it but I didn't try.

In the actually holo launcher app there is an option to disable the notifications pull down. Make sure yours is not checked.

Read it on some forum... Guy said he worked for tmo and the region manager or something like that was told by a Samsung fellow it would be released (at earliest) in q1.. Again take it as a grain of salt lol

Can't set any security on it, therefore this is useless to me. But as for functionality, it worked flawlessly on Darkside Evolution v8. Notification drop down did indeed work along with the camera launch.
The only thing I dont like about these lockers is that pressing the home button from the lockscreen unlocks it, I saw an option on this locker to disable that, but it ended up disabling the home button completely

Nice find, but it doesn't even have music controls show up. I think I'll stick with the AOSP lockscreen mod for now.
Thanks man

[TIP]- How to get custom notification toggles without root or flashing.

Hello peeps.. so I decided to share a nice trick that has been working amazingly well for me. If you want to add things like flash light.. mobile data...brightness control to your notification area head on over to the play store and get Notification Toggle. Let's you customize whichever toggles you'd like. Also let's you download and change the icons to each toggle.. really fresh and I have been rocking it for a while with no issues. For those who don't know about this app.. knock yourself out!!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.notificationToggle
Here is a screenie of my set up.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Brightness..flashlight...data...shortcut to battery stats.
All credit goes to j4velin for developing a very useful app. I am just supporting and sharing something dope

Okay i noticed a small problem. You know for using notification toggle you need to enable it under accessibility settings. Some how this is partly turning on the talk back accessibility service. When you pinch to collapse home screens or apps in drawer, it starts talking. Anyone else having this problem?
Sent from my SGH-T999
Turn talk back off. its right above the notification toggle on/off switch. You might have turned it on accidently.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Talk back is turned off, that's the first thing i checked. The talk back happens only when pinching home screen and app drawer. If talk back is on it talks for every screen touch any where, which is not happening.
Sent from my SGH-T999
I have the same problem. Turn off toggle notification in the accessibility section. It will still work just won't stay on top in the ongoing notification section. But all other notifications won't. Not a big deal to me...talk back was really irritating.
Check out my screen shot.

Between this and FoxFi (free tethering w/o root) I'm beginning to think this might be the first phone I've had in a while that I don't feel compelled to root to fix its shortcomings.

I'm in the same boat... I've had the phone for two weeks now and haven't even considered rooting it. My wife even told me last night, "I'm surprised you haven't rooted your phone." nova takes care of touchwiz and the bloat doesn't even bother me.

Who likes the s3 lockscreen?

I personally don't really like it. I also miss having the music player on the lockscreen from previous devices. And the ripple is eh. Its neat for a while but it loses its touch later on. Anyone else?

Yeah, it was cool at first, but then it started to get boring. Hated the white wash effect it gave on the wallpaper. So now, I'm using holo locker. It's pretty nice.

Personally I like the ripple effect with the wallpaper I got. Looks great.
The quick icons are also really nice (you can change them).
The only thing I miss the default music controls from most apps.You have to use 3rd party that don't always look so good.

I use holo locker as well but I get annoyed when I unlock the phone and the default lockscreen pops up instead of holo. I unlock that then holo pops up. I get tired of unlocking the phone twice. It's not every time but it gets quite annoying.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I have mine set to motion unlock and it's probably the only thing keeping me from going to cm9. Just put your thumb on the screen and tilt the top of the phone toward you to unlock. It's the quickest way to unlock your phone while still having a bit of security in place.

which one was a no go? hopefully you used the stock version. it should work on ALL ROMs and phones. the other 2 will of course not work on stock ROMs. AOSP only.
I'm a little confused about what you mean by (MMS is borked. Use stock for MMS sending) does flashing this install a separate messaging app and I will need to switch back and forth in order to use mms messages?
yes. for the mms borked one it is a separate app. you can run this app side by side with any messaging app on all ROMs.
Hmm... "messaging has stopped" this occurs when I scroll through the threads.

Mms didn't seem to work. As was originally posted. However I came across this and it works fine. Mms is supported with no problems. It's pretty solid. Make sure you go into root explorer and back up your stock messaging app first, it's titled as "SecMms.apk"

Try this, pull down notification bar. Select the one that says something about more info. It will take you to app settings, uncheck show notifications. Both P will go from top screen but if you quit the app and restart it, the next time only one P shows on top of phone. By the way, I am issuing an XDA Pandora apk version w unlimited skips.
