How to add icons to the lock screen. - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The title says it all. Any help would be appreciated. Also I did search so please don't tell me that's the thing to do.

I don't think you can. You can add widgets and shortcuts. Is that what you mean by adding icons?

[Q] Expand lock screen widgets

Hi All,
I finally made the jump and bought a Nexus 7 even tho we will most likely see a newer version in May. However it is still freakin awesome! I am running CM 10.1 nightly's but cannot expand the lock screen widgets. Is this possible? I love that new Dashclock widget for the lock screen but it will only show me two of my selected options before it cuts off because I am unable to expand the widget.
I use it on the Note 2 (also running CM10.1) and it works great. Anyone know something that I may have missed?
Thanks in advance
-Chris
I actually forgot how it's done. I remember I did it once on 4.2 but never again could I expand the widgets to maximum size again on 4.2.1 and 4.2.2
Hi there,
Have you tried Apex Launcher?
I dunno for sure, but maybe, and just maybe you can re-size and customize the lock screen widgets.
Hope this helps

I did! That's what I thought but looks like it's built into CM 10.1. but not in the grouper builds i guess.
Swipe down on the widget. From the clock

It doesn't behave the same way my Note 2 build does.Only thing I can do is delete or add widget. no re-sizing (that I can see or get to work) .
It really is strange then. Maybe if you pm your Rom dev for some q & a.

Sorry bro it's not working out for you. You can download an app called landscape wallpaper for the movable wallpaper.

If it's not available without a new launcher, use Image 2 Wallpaper and make your custom wallpaper fit properly.

Wallpaper question

I'm on latest avatar but I have some wallpapers that I want to fit on one screen and don't see an option to make the wallpaper vertical instead of having to scroll to see the rest of the wallpaper, any suggestions or apps that might do this would be appreciated, thanks

Would be good if it could be removed as you could get another row of icons in there or a 4x1 widget.

No idea sorry, although I have definitely seen modified launchers on custom touchwiz ROMs somewhere.
Take a look at the thread below. Failing that have a good search of the apps&themes section here.
