Cool idea. Howver in the past replacement lockscreens tend to be hit or miss - many users report still seeing the normal lockscreen, or having to unlock both. How are you addressing this problem? (for example, WidgetLocker has this issue)

I think its possibly more prevalent on lower end devices for whatever reason(remember probably a majority of android devices can be categorized as low-end).

Edit: I've just installed it on my phone(HTC One XL), it occasionally shows my normal desktop first then the it opens. For the most part though it seems to be working.

Some criticism(Not trying to be rude):

- Text is hard to read

- Background is plain ugly

- Seems to fail when no data connection is available.

hi bnjd, thanks for giving Frontpage a try.

We're aware of the issues involved with lockscreen apps, it comes with the territory. Old versions of Android are fragmented, and even new versions are often restructured for franchise use - HTC is one company that does this and it is likely the root of the desktop showing periodically on yours. Android is slowly becoming more standardized and this will help, in the meantime we're just doing the best we can.

I'll do my best to address the no-connection failure. Does it completely shut down the app? Could you be more specific about the text? Is is too small? Wrong color? Any background suggestions? Its currently a minimum viable product so feel free to toss out what you'd like to see :)

Thanks again for the review.

The android situation is definitely difficult. I should mention I'm on a Jellybean sense rom, so like you said it isn't stock.

For the background I'd recommend a nice dark gradient or something similar. The background has different parts being black and white and even with your semi transparent padding the text seems hard to read. I'd try to get more contrast there. I don't have any specific color suggestions though. Good luck!
