In reply to Brian.

Well I haven’t tried this myself, but there are 2 apps that can help you. One is “OwnerInfo widget”, which lets you put text info about the phone’s owner in a widget, and the other is “WidgetLocker Lockscreen” which lets you put widgets like OwnerInfo widget on your lock screen.

Hope this helps!

Can you tell me how to get my name and business on my home screen? Is this even possible and if not I would love to see a widget/app that can do this. It should show even before you slide the unlock bar.

Thanks

I love the pandora widget. Also, the photo frame.

You can get the Google News app that ships on Google’s Nexus One phone on your Droid. It’s very cool. This Droid Forum post explains how to install: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-hacks/9737-google-news-widget-works-droid.html. You have to make sure you have the “Unknown Sources” box checked in your Application settings. You can uncheck it after install if you’re worried about other potentially dangerous apps.
