How do I get rid of these lock screen widgets especially the missed call.
This is a serious privacy issue and defeats the purpose of having the lock screen. I wonder, if Samsung was so fascinated by this feature, they should have given an option to disable it.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

is it me or is there no way to have the lockscreen and homescreen wallpaper different like you could on the hero???
I was wondering the same thing......I dont think there is way to do it in the stock rom....
that sucks they a stupid move on htc part i hope i the devs can restore this issue in the custom roms
i dont mind it looks sleek
I don't mind it. It looks visually better this way (the lock slides... the screen stays in place). With the Hero, the entire lock/background moved.
I just installed "No Lock" from the market which disables the lock screen completely. It's great on the EVO, because now I can use the volume buttons to turn on my phone and not have to slide an unlock screen to access anything. That power button is sometimes tricky to reach with this massive size phone .
I believe thus was done for live wallpaper as they now work in lockscreen and password screen.
I like the feature

Since we're on the subject of lockscreens, is there anyway I can customize the lockscreen? It would be pretty nice if I could add widgets or something useful on there.
My old iphone was jailbroken and had lockinfo installed. that way I could mark emails as read and read txts from the lock screen. i would love to do something similar with my Atrix.
I was thinking it would be great to just be able to pull down the notification shade on the locked lock screen. that way it is clean looking, and if i don't want to unlock it, I can just pull the shade down and interact / clear notifications from the shade. does anyone know if this is possible, or if any one has implemented a similar hack on another phone? i would be happy to get My hands dirty in the code, but have never worked with Android before and was hoping for a jump start.
the app widget locker will let you do this as well as give you full control over your lockscreen.
Is there any way to add toggle widgets to the shade like touchwiz does, that seems to be the only thing I liked about touchwiz
Hi Guys
Apologies if this has been asked before but the search feature doesn't seem to be working.
Got my S4 a few days ago and loving it, but there is one thing that has been annoying me.
If i set up any sort of security lock on the lock screen I am unable to add widgets. It only seems to work when you have swipe set as your unlock option. I was able to add widgets just fine on my S2 running jellybean with a pattern lock.
Does anyone know a way around this? On the S2 jellybean you had an option to show the normal swipe lock screen before the security lock screen. Hopefully this will be something they will add in a coming update because it really was a great option.
Would like to know if this is happening for other people, if anyone has got around it or if any one has any alternatives that I could try
Its done as a security feature. Its not very secure having a PIN to unlock your device yet have widgets for email, Twitter etc accessible from the lock screen.
I'd like to be able to access the camera from the lock screen too, but unfortunately no luck.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh yes.........but we are on Android, not Apple, where the consumer would like to make this choice!

What you're saying is not true. On vanilla jellybean on the nexus 7, you choose the widgets that you want accessible from the lock screen. Even with security on.

Hi, so try as I may, I can't find a way to add widgets to the S5 lock screen. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same issue or if i'm just incompetent?
I'm a little new to android but is this something that might change over time? or is the inability to add widgets to the lock screen something that will never be added? I really valued that element of my old phone and I hate how I can't do that with the galaxy s5.
Hello, quick tweek question:
I like the ZTE Locker feature with the random wallpapers. But, since the recent update, I notice a heart on the lock screen that pops up useless options for me when pressed. Is there a way to get rid of this completely (preferred), or change the options available when it';s pressed? Thanks for any info or suggestions!
