I finally have everything set up the way I like on 9.3.3 with one exception: Eclair!

This tweak exits the current app upon locking your device so that when you unlock, your always presented with the first springboard page.

Does anyone know of an alternative? Or a hack to get it working?

The only workaround I've found is setting activator to simulate a press of the home button on unlock, but you still see the last app for a fraction of a second before its closes, so it's a bit inelegant.
 
Use activator to replicate this.

I played around with Activator but it doesn't work as well.
Using home button or first springboard page on unlock still shows the last app for a second.
Using home button on device lock causes a crash.
You can assign both home button and device lock to a another gesture and that works well, but I'd prefer something that works regardless of how the device gets locked.
Also, activator has always made my phone a bit buggy in the past, so I'd prefer not to use it.

Try Quickdo. Activator has always been hit or miss for me, but Quickdo works flawlessly so far, I made the switch and have had 0 issues since.

Actually DefaultPage has been updated and now has the function I was looking for.
I've never heard of Quickdo, I'll check it out!
