I'd like to have a key pad password entry on my Android phone and while I think I'm OK with coding the app, I have no idea how to get it to run instead of the "swipe to unlock".

If an app can take over the role of that critical security feature it would be a big in the OS.
Samsungs have a keypad option in the Display settings; I'd always thought this was a standard Android feature, no?

Right, setting a PIN is a standard feature on all Android devices, it's a system setting. There's no way an app can intercept the lockscreen, though some widgets can add features to it.
