I want to use my lockscreen widgets on jelly bean but I cant because my work email forces me to use a pin to unlock my phone. Is there any way to workaround this? Just thought I'd ask. Thanks

I use a pin (and face unlock now) and can use the widgets just fine (swipe right to left for camera and left to right for my shopping list)

Just add the widget and on the lock screen swipe down to remove the pin-pad and show the widget.
sucks

It doesn't let me add widgets. It just shows the pin input. I can't even choose any other way to unlock my phone besides pin and password it sucks.
having trouble with the lock screen and security. I can put widget and apps on the lock screen no problem. But when I add a password or pin or other type of security I no longer have access to the widgets and apps on the lock screen. is the a short coming in Android 4.2 or am I missing something?
It is working as designed. Password or pin means security and widgets bypass this. Pick a less secure option or give up widgets.

Ok so this worked perfectly in stock android. Is it at all possible that maybe a tw rom has this built in?

Not natively, but the solution I set up for my wife's phone works pretty well. Try using Widgetlocker for your lockscreen, and setting your TW lockscreen security to pattern or pin. Unfortunately you won't have the pretty lens flare effect, but it does work pretty well.

Surprising!! I thought the point to widgets on the lock screen was that you could easily and quickly perform or see something without having to UNLOCK your phone. Just don't understand!
in my S2 i had a number password and widgets.
when i chose a widget to open it would first ask for a password and then open the app.
don't get why this isn't the case in my S4 (SGH-I337M).
Hello fellow G2-Users,
One thing that bothers me with this great phone is the lack to customize the stock lockscreen. For example display calendar and weather, changing the clock etc. I know there is WidgetLocker and other apps but i want to keep the great unlocking animation from the stock lockscreen and of course knockoff from lockscreen.
Who else wants this?
Who can make this possible?

I'm using a PIN code for security, so that changes things a bit. On that version of the lock screen, you can swipe from the left and add widgets. Stock lockscreen.

Thx for your suggestion!! iam aware of that and it is also avaible without PIN security. But i want to see my next appointment and weather on the main lockscreen and change the (ugly) stock clock.
Try "Android Weather" app. It has the features you mention, you can make the widget transparent if you want, and it can be added to the lockscreen.

Hey, so thought I'd share how I enabled multiple lockscreen widgets on my device with the latest 4.4.2 firmware
>So, follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2698651 only steps 1 through 5.
>On step 6, u want to look for " kg_multiple_lockscreen " (you can use the search button if you're having trouble finding it) and change the value to ' 1 ' .
>Turn off Screen and turn back on. Voila!!

Wait, what's this? You can do this with an Xposed Module? -__- I did not know...
Hi Justinchi just a quick question since i don't have my Note 10.1 right now, will doing this mod show an option on the lockscreen settings where you would enable the Multiple lockscreen widget first? thanks

No, it doesn't add anything to settings. It automatically enables multiple widgets on lockscreen.

I tried it also but unfortunately it does not work on Gnabo.v3
Am I missing something?

Hmm, did you use the exact same SQLite app that I linked above?
Also, I believe Gnabo ROM v3 automatically includes multiple lockscreen widgets if I read the changelog properly.

V 3 IS ONLINE
MAKE A FULL WIPE FIRST !
Changelog :
Rebased on the official release N8000XXUDNE4
Moved S-Note to the /system partition
Reintegrated Allshare files (tell me if it's working now)
Patched lib to make Screen Mirroring and AllShare working even with custom ROM (tell me if it's working now)
thanks to @vickoc
New Wallpaper chooser with new sammy wallpapers
Accuweather Widget from Tab 4
Removed KitKat limitations for external sdcard
Ported smartscreen options (scroll,rotation,pause). Smartscroll and smartpause don't work at the moment (unlikely to be fixed because they are stupid features and don't work fine even in new devices)
Multiple Widgets in Lockscreen
Note 2014 settings layout
S5 Myfiles with search feature instead of Note 2014 Myfiles
Removed AirCommand shortcut app
Setted AirCommand on Pen Detachment by default
Bugs :
FC if trying to set a wallpaper for lockscreen or for both home and lockscreen. Do it from gallery.
Also please read :
I spent a lot of time to reintegrate all these features that sammy removed. If you are enjoying this ROM then please donate not to me, but to @Arsaw, who is the mind of this project. I don't want 1, 2, 5 or 10 coffes for me, but for him.
I don't think 0.5 or 1 euro will change your life but I am quite sure it will induce him to continue helping me porting things as he's doing now.
I am confident you will do that guys. You can donate here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/donatetome.php?u=3417326.
I would really appreciate this.
Thanks

Yes I did use the exact same application and the exact same steps that it was on the video.
V3 includes onle support for showing only the clock or the clock + some custom text, not really lockscreen widgets.

I have done the changes and then in the lockscreen I am trying to swipe to see the "+" but I am not able to do so? Any ideas?

There's a Xposed module called Unlock Effect Before Lockscreen or something close.
Google that.
I hope you have root access and Xposed. If not, ask me.
