    What am I to notice, at the bottom?

    I saw Camera, Apps, People, & Phone.
    Mine, after installing ICS tonight, shows an addition that I hope will help with the lock screen but I haven't had time to work with it as yet. I wondered if you meant the line next to bottom which is not clear enough to tell what is represented.

    How do you disable stock text messaging app? Every time I access the text icon from lock screen, it still uses the stock app. I currently am using GoSMS pro as my messaging app.

    Long press the icon for the stock messaging app (either in the app drawer or on your home screen), and then drag it to the top where it says "More options." Tap App info on the pop up. From there, tap Disable on the top right. This will freeze the app, preventing it from running, and it will remove it from your app drawer. You can disable almost all of the stock apps and bloatware this way.

    I disabled the stock texting app to use GoSMS but now I don't receive mms messages. Any work around to have GoSms on lock screen and as the default messeging app?

    Force Go SMS to Handle MMS

    In Go SMS, there's a setting that forces GO to handle MMS delivery (instead of stock). Navigate to Settings > Advanced tab > Important Tips > and check "Stock SMS uninstalled". This will allow you to have stock disabled (triggering go on the lock screen) and still receive MMS just fine.

    I disabled the stock text messaging app, and worked great, but now my sync in my Explorer wont read text messages... so I went to enable it again, but "Text Messaging" is no longer in the app list under "all". WTF. How do I re enable it??

    You can re-enable any app by locating it at the bottom of the 'manage apps' list.

    Is there a way to change the length of the timeout on the lock screen? It seems to be about 10 seconds which isnt nearly enough time to even forward through a few songs!
