I just updated from CM10.2 to the latest CM11 nightly with a dirty flash (wiped cache and dalvik and flashed gapps)
I lock my phone with a PIN code. My settings are to have the widgets minimized with the PIN entry area immediately accessible when I wake the screen. In this mode, the clock is still visible and a smaller-sized version of the weather is also visible on top of the PIN entry area.
But on CM11, I see this instead:

As you can see, the weather widget failed to minimize properly and is being partially obstructed by the PIN entry area. I checked the settings and the "show when minimized" is checked - as it was on CM10.2.
Anyone got a fix for this?
I should also note that if I UNCHECK the "show when minimized" box, the weather widget also doesn't disappear when the PIN entry area is empty (it would have disappeared on CM10.2). Instead it behaves exactly like described above.
Just realized this is an ongoing issue with CM11 that isn't resolved yet.
In the meantime, I downloaded the DashClock app which is more or less identical to CM's own LockClock app, and the weather widget minimizes properly with this one - now I restored the visual appearance to what I had in CM10.2. Not the most convenient solution, but pretty simple and elegant (no complex file modification needed, haha).
Case closed, hope the CM team resolves this soon...
I have a separate question regarding the new yahoo weather powered lock screen widget that rolled out with CM11.
I have CM11 installed on my Nexus 5 and just updated to the 2/10/14 stable which came with this lock screen widget from Yahoo. I don't see the widget as an installed app either in apps or widgets and I cannot find a settings for this widget.
I want to manually set the zip code and change the readout from Celsius to Fahrenheit but cant figure out how.
Any ideas?

I am trying to get the clock and the weather widget to show up on my lock screen - my old NOTE2 had the option in Lockscreen settings to show weather on Lock screen but I cant find that option here.
I was able to add a weather widget to the lock screen - but when you first open the lock screen all you see is the clock - then, if I swipe down on the screen - it opens the weather ap - see my screen shots attached.
The first is what you see when you first get to the lock screen
the second is what you see when youi swipe down.
I am wanting to get the look of the second screen shot - when you first see the lock screen -
any suggestions?

I couldn't find a way to do it either, so I downloaded this little app and it's kind of cool.

You can add several other notifications to it as well.
I use beautiful widgets on all my devices, lets me set weather, clock, battery, and all completely customizable. One of the few apps I ever paid for.

Can you set it up with pattern security? The images on the Play store shows that you can but I haven't been able to do so. Every time I set up the widget and set the pattern security, it reverts back to the standard default clock.
Well I did once, but it has now reverted to the regular lock screen. Looks like maybe a bug - The other notification extensions I picked are taking up the whole screen. When I first installed it moved everything small up next to the clock when I had the pattern visible on the lock screen. I'm not sure how to make the widget smaller as of yet. Other users have reported the same problem, so maybe there will be a future fix.
I am on the official CM10.1 RC2. I didn't flash anything else other than a fix for Wi-Fi ARP when in sleep mode, as well as an older radio to enable LTE.
What has been going on every since I flashed my first CM10.1 nightly (got the phone on May 2) is that every other time I wake the phone, the lockscreen widgets disappear.
This is a 100% predictable and totally consistent pattern. If I wake the phone and my lockscreen widgets are visible, then the next time I lock the phone and wake it, the lockscreen widgets disappear. If I wake the phone and my lockscreen widgets are missing, I can guarantee they'll come back if I immediately lock and wake it again.
I know it's not an Android 4.2 problem, because my sister's HTC One S doesn't have this issue and it's set up the same way.
To illustrate what I mean, these are the two states my lockscreen always alternates between:
Been trying to find an answer for this... maybe I'm not using the right keywords :/
EDIT: SOLVED - Turns out Lockscreen Policy was the culprit. I disabled both widgets and camera and that was causing cLock to disappear every other time. Allowing widgets while disabling the camera eliminated the problem. Hope this helps others in the future!
Make sure you don't have two lockscreen clocks. If so, delete one.

I don't think I have two clocks. All I can find in the settings is the "Clock widget" in the Lock screen section which is what I want to use.
Any idea where I might have accidentally placed a second clock if that's the case? I didn't download any clock or calendar apps - I use the stock ones. I did restore a lot of stuff from Titanium backup on my old phone, but I clearly remember that system settings wasn't something I restored.
edit: I checked Titanium Backup and noticed that the "Clock" app (not the cLock app/widget) had been restored from my previous phone which ran CM10, not CM10.1. I remember that on CM10, the clock was right-justified, not centered, and that is what my 2nd screenshot (the scenario I want to get rid of) is showing.
Is it possible that I inadvertently restored the CM10 lockscreen clock from my old phone? I hope that doesn't mean having to wipe. I really can't find anything in the settings that might indicate the presence of more than one clock.
EDIT: SOLVED! It turns out that the Lockscreen Policy app was the culprit. I had disabled both widgets and the camera in Lockscreen Policy because I don't want people messing with my phone as a joke (otherwise what's the point of a PIN...). Re-enabling the widgets while keeping camera disabled solved everything. I confirmed that disabling widgets in Lockscreen Policy would immediately bring back this problem.
Tbh, I'd prefer having the old CM10 lockscreen, without those side widgets or the camera, and the ability to slide to a ring shortcut before bringing up the PIN
Hello All
Just if some1 could guide me to the light ...
I'm running Stock TouchWiz ARHD v3 XXUBMGA, fully debloated and some theming.
Every Widget that has options before its showed in Homescreen simply doesn't appear.
Examples:
Assistive Light (no seletion) - OK
Contact 1x1 (after selecting contact) - NO
Any Shotcut - OK
Settings Shortcut (after selecting setting) - NO
EDIT: ColorNote was capable to overcome the issue.
The widget setup always runs OK but the icon doesn't appear. No messages. There is any log to inspect?
Very weird.
Thanks for your time.
Hoping someone can shed some light on what just happened.
- lockscreen; widget locker.
- rom; carbon nightly.
- launcher; themer.
- widgets; zooper.
- keyboard; swype.
Rebooted phone when it started i noticed it was in safe mode.
Rebooted again, then in order this is what i noticed misbehaving;
- lock screen; all widgets - zooper - blank with message cannot display widget.
- launcher; calendar widget - zooper - not displaying calendar items.
- keyboard; reverted to stock.
- system; screen timeout reverted to 15 seconds, was set to to minutes previously.
Any ideas?
Not sure about carbonrom but did you flash different kernel other than the one comes with the rom?. Redo clean flash. The worst is try different rom and see if the issue persists.

Hey everybody.
Does anyone know how can i restore weather widget on lockscreen on Thor S7 style 1.5?
Thanks in advanced for any helpo - answer...
You haven't given enough information to help us out, leaving us to make nothing more than a WAG. More details please, like what launcher you're using and whether you've disabled any of the apps within the device.
Ok i did a fresh install of Thor S7 style version 1.5 and when the device boot completle after i set up my wifi enter my location and on my home page with the clock i have weather icon
when i go to unlock the screen i see only the clock the phone dialer down on the left and the camera down right corner no weather on lock screen i search on settings and here it comes nothing
i don't know how else i can help you to give you to understand
No, your latest post was helpful. Unfortunately, while I also have Thor on my S4, I can't activate the weather either. The only option in Settings > Lock screen and security under weather is to change settings on the weather widget itself. You can't turn the widget on in the lock screen.
i stay up very late last night and i did some experiment i download the all in one addon for thor s7 v1.2
during the instalattion it have a tick to select the weather widget on lockscreen.
Give it a try and let me know if it works for you
It probably would work and I'll make sure to download the addon in case the file suddenly disappears. Glad you figured it out.
