Let’s just say you have the problem I have, forgetting to bring business cards to meetings and feel like a shithead because of it.
HERE IS THE SOLUTION
Create a qr code at http://www.qrhacker.com. What I do is take a screenshot then save it. (don’t ask)
Go to the android market, buy widget locker for 2.99. For this app, I had to RTFM, so I recommend you do too.
Once downloaded, press menu button, settings, look & feel, on this screen, make sure “alternative wallpaper” is checked. press select wallpaper and choose the wallpaper of your qr code.
If you’re a photoshop nerd like me, create a new image with 480px w by 800px h and make sure you have a white background (phone cameras don’t like black backgrounds too much)
Once you get the white bg figured out, paste in your newly created qr code in the picture, make sure it’s centered.
Once you’ve pulled your hair out figuring out how simple this is, go to the widget locker app in the app menu and go back to the above instructions to get your new qr code to work.
Here is a screenshot of my lockscreen and yes the qr code works for both android phones and tablets.
(once you’ve figured out the wallpaper, then its figuring out how its going to look with the unlock slider. because I’m so sly, you can’t see the slider on the lock screen, its there and it works like a charm.)
If you need help, let me know!
