2. Can i put some shortcuts to unlocking circle?
3. How can i remove google search bar on stock launcher?
4. Can i add some more shortucts to switches menu in notification bar?
5. Can i change color on softbuttons?
If i remember something more, i will write it here

Hi,
1) Light Manager works perfectly, I use it.
2) Custom rom.
3) Not possible if I remember right, need to use an alternative launcher like Nova / Apex or a moded stock launcher.
4) Custom rom or maybe with an existing mod (I doubt)?
5) Custom rom or take a look here but here the colors are limited.
Mainly what you are asking is in almost all the custom roms...

Thanks a lot for response!
Tell me, is it possible to add wather widget on lockscreen as widget?
Thanks in advance

Check out dash clock widget. If that's not what you're looking for and want full size widgets then try a custom ROM.

Many custom ROMs have a feature that allows you to put any widget on the lockscreen.
It looks like you need to start flashing!

Ahhh.. I wanted to use stock for few weeks.. Ive heard that there is one kernel that is working best with stock rom and makes battery life much more better.
P.s. can i recieve ota if i am rooted?
P.p.s. does build number affect ota updates (like on galaxy nexus)?

[Q] cLock apk request

Hello guys!
I've been searching for the so called cLock app (the one which has got a great stock like widget with weather and calendar notif), which is included in some custom roms. I also would like to know, wether it's compatible with stock 4.3 on nexus 4.
I have googled for it, but unfortunately google doesn't make difference between small L in clock, so I couldn't search for cLock.
Thanks

What lockscreen do you use?

Try to make my lock screen more efficient or helpful. I have been trying several lock screen replacements/widgets recently. Wondering if I am missing any good ones and wonder what everyone else uses?
Stock? Stock w/dashclock? Widget locker? Cover? Start? Other? Let me know, thanks!

Stock.

Ditto, stock

best choice
go locker with carnival theme is the best

Stock but have always wondered why if you have any security (i use pattern) all the cool widget stuff is gone.

Started using COVER now, the updated version is cool. The moat intelligent lockscreen.

I tried cover, I don't understand peek really. I mean I get it, you can peek at the app, but you can only see so much before you have dragged it to the point where it just unlocks. And I don't have a lot of variation in my useage, so my apps list was mostly the same no matter where I was. I do like that it can change wallpapers based on where you are though. If they could incorporate the ability to change lockscreen widgets based on location that might make it better for me.
I like dashclock widget, but I hate that I have to expand it in order to actually click on my message to open into the messaging app. But I think I found an xposed mod to fix that, gonna try it out.

Dual-use Navbar Icons

HI, I'm scissors_cut_paper. I have recently taken a disliking to sacrificing my home screen real estate for a dock. I am currently using slimkat, which has the ability to assign a long press function and custom icon to navbar buttons. To that end, I have created some dual use navbar icons, based on stock kitkat, but representing both functions of the navbar key. Now i'm no themer, but paint.net is pretty easy to use. If anyone has good ideas or request I may entertain them, though I would recommend having a play yourself.
To set these keys/icons in slimkat use settings/navigation/navigation bar/buttons.
The current icons I have made are-
Notification pulldown/longpress Quicksettings (Never reach for the top of your screen again)
Back/longpress kill app
Home/longpress application draw
Recents/longpress menu
Filemanager/longpress ?
Download - https://www.dropbox.com/sh/v9sz5sco0bdrue0/f_9QvTcLcT
All credits to slim for implementing the functionality, all i did was make some buttons.
Video of implementing (not everyone will need this, took me a while to figure it out though) http://youtu.be/ist7kSStb9k
Video in use - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wv88dWqbkcQ

want to share your wallpaper pl0x?

No problem

any videos on you using it? Im interested...

YouTube link added in OP. Can do a quick video of how to implement (in slimkat, anyway) if anyone needs? Also did some cleanup, changed file explorer icon to better match stock theme.

Very nice man...your wallpaper is taking many threads by storm now too...
Slimkat also has navring features for those who don't like docks.

Still trying to figure out what I want to do with my ring.I've got shortcuts set up in the QS, combined with the pulldown button in navbar means they appear right above where your finger already is.

Notification Panel by Mathieu Croset - Nexus 5

Hi there,
I found these screenshots of a custom notification panel on dribbble.com ! I think it is just awesome !
I wondering if it is possible to have this on my nexus 5 ? It is a mod ? A theme ? Or something else ?
Thanks.

Niiiiiiiiice

it looks almost exactly like ios

kinda reminds me of miui

Pretty sure its just a custom homescreen, its possible with Zooper.
Sent from my Nexus 5

Yes that is a home screen. Probably done with Zooper as stated above. You can Google some pretty awesome zooper layouts. Just download them from the web and customize to your liking. It is kind of difficult at first, but you'll get the hang of it. It's for power users I'd say. You can customize pretty much anything how you want for your home screen.

Hi
Take an eye on this

Yes pretty sure it's UCCW or Zooper but it's a homescreen.. Not possible to do that on the notification panel.
