Use status bar on lock screen?

Is there any way to modify android so that the status bar is able to be pulled down when it is locked?

If you geg a 3rd party lock, screen like widget locker, it still shows the,status bar, so it can be scrolled down with out unlocking.
And it lets you customise your lockscreen with widgets etc.

+1 for Widgetlocker, what you're asking for is one of the reasons I like it so much!

I actually prefer to use the stock lock screen. So I'm just wondering if it's possible with that

Is it just me or is it a pain to get your text from the lock screen? What's the trick to it. I'm not to fond of the new way. I liked seeing it in the status bar but not the message on the lock screen & unfortunately you can't change that.

A pain? You click the message then swipe inside the white box that appears. Takes you straight to the message.

Ya, but it also shows it in the lock screen, there's no way to do one or the other.

Personally, I dont like Samsungs whole version of the multiple lock screen widgets and notifications on lock screen. Very clumsy

Widget Locker on the PlayStore or a custom ROM.

I think he is referring to touchwiz lock screen shortcuts which isn't available on the nexus 4.

Nexus 5 lock screen torch

Anybody know where I can get the lock screen torch for the nexus 5? I can't seem to find an app to use via the lock screen widgets.

[Request] G2 lock screen clock on G3 rom

I'm not a huge fan of the circle clock in the lock screen and I was wondering if it would be possible to bring back the old clock from the G2 Rom? It's the only thing I miss.
