Watch on Widget - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

I can only get the watch on widget to work on the lock screen, not on thr the home screen. Can someone confirm they are having the same issue?

Using nova I have no option for the watchon widget. I got the notification drawer widget to appear but it disappeared after reboot.

Same here. That's really weird that they wouldn't have it as a home screen widget.

There's gotta be a bug then.. Makes no sense.

Surprised this isn't being discussed more. Also no homescreen widget in the GS4, only lock screen and notification panel

Weather widget

Removed the weather widget from my home screen.
When I put it back it is only 2 wide, not 4.
Any ideas why or how to fix?

Place the widget and then press,and hold until trash can appears, let go and it will give you the option to resize

I think you can resize it by long pressing the widget, releasing and then you should see a little resize indicator in the bottom right corner of the widget. Drag that to resize how you want.
EDIT: Beaten to the punch!
Brilliant. A nice little feature.

This seems like a good place to ask a quick question then, can you resize all or most widgets? Or just a few like the weather widget mentioned above?

Use status bar on lock screen?

Is there any way to modify android so that the status bar is able to be pulled down when it is locked?

If you geg a 3rd party lock, screen like widget locker, it still shows the,status bar, so it can be scrolled down with out unlocking.
And it lets you customise your lockscreen with widgets etc.

+1 for Widgetlocker, what you're asking for is one of the reasons I like it so much!
I actually prefer to use the stock lock screen. So I'm just wondering if it's possible with that

Incoming texts

Is it just me or is it a pain to get your text from the lock screen? What's the trick to it. I'm not to fond of the new way. I liked seeing it in the status bar but not the message on the lock screen & unfortunately you can't change that.

A pain? You click the message then swipe inside the white box that appears. Takes you straight to the message.

Ya, but it also shows it in the lock screen, there's no way to do one or the other.

Personally, I dont like Samsungs whole version of the multiple lock screen widgets and notifications on lock screen. Very clumsy

Lock screen apps

How do we change which apps are on the lock screen. I cannot find the settings anywhere.
I want to add Gmail to there since that is the main notification that lights up.

Right there in settings where ud think it would be.... I understand though, sometimes we just overlook something no matter how long we search for it...

Where is it? I still don't see it. Can you take a screenshot of it for me. It's not there.
