[Q] How do I add a widget on the main lock screen - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Using the latest Paranoid Android ROM and already downloaded the Chronus App. I AM able to add a widget in the LEFT lock screen but I could not figure out how to move this widget into the MAIN one, which has the time and date already built-in. Thanks for the help!

You need to swipe down on the time/date widget in order to maximize it, then tap and hold on the widget itself, a remove icon will appear.

Thank you. Got it now.

Lock screen widget

How can I add widgets to the lock screen ???

Assuming you are using stock lock screen:
On the lock screen swipe all the way to the left, and you should finish on a screen with a big plus sign on it. Click the plus sign and select the widget to add (unfortunately not all support lock screen widgets yet but still a fair selection). To rearrange long press the widget and move it to suit. To delete, long press the widget, and drag to the trash can.
Also, try Dashclock from the play store, perhaps the only lock screen widget you need!

You can't use some lock screen widgets if you have a security lock screen thanks to Samsung being weird and annoying. Plus they removed the quick launch camera lock screen with their silly app matrix.
If you just use the slide to unlock feature then slide your finger from the top down and then left or right and you'll have the option of adding more.
You first have to enable them in the settings. Also you can enable quick camera instead of using the app matrix, you'll find that in the same place.... Main settings---> lockscreen ---> check the multiple widgets box. Tap the next box down to configure the quick launch camera as default instead of the app matrix should you choose.

[Q] Play recommendations on lockscreen instead of clock

Hi There,
I have somehow changed my lockscreen clock to be the play recommendations widget, even though the clock is set in lockscreen settings.
Does anyone have any ideas how to get this back to being a clock?
Thanks.

Anyone able to help?
Pull down the widget itself which should launch the options for more lock screen widgets, then slide left to either add more or replace your current one with a clock.

Lockscreen widgets

So in the lockscreen before you draw the pattern or password, I have a digital clock. If you slide the screen to right or left you can add a widget of your choice but it only gives you a choice of like 5 widgets that are Google related. I couldn't find a way to add my own. Is there such a way? Thank you.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
By default apps have to declare lockscreen widget to show up in lockscreen widget picker. If you want all widgets then you will need a custom ROM (or some Xposed module, I believe).

Quick window bug(finding confirmation from others)

I realised that if I disable the stock music app, it's widget is automatically disabled and I lose the quick window widget too. That would be fine, only double tap to off no longer works on the clock widget, only the weather one.
Now if I disable the clock widget too, the weather widget's double tap to off disappears as well.
Anyone else has that prob too?
Enabling the music widget ONLY(in settings doing this also enables the music app) using TiBu solves the problem but leaves a useless and ugly music widget behind :/

Oh i've also thought of a few solutions
1. Use exposed to change the lock screen widget to simply pause/play and next and previous buttons that work with all apps
2. Modify the apk to do the same thing
3. Find the source of the bug?

I never noticed it before but I can confirm my VS980 on CleanROM behaves as you describe. I never use the knock on feature...
