With default stuff, you can't.

So then which launcher should i use in order to modify only the lockscreen?
Is this possible? Am used to default launcher, i dont mind some change to fix my lockscreen but i'd like to keep the rest of my phone/home/buttons as default as possible.
Thanks again for your help

In cm10.1, for example , you can change the lockscreen options, and get rid of the clock widget.

Sure you can. If you actually mean luck screen and not status bar. Expand to full size, long press that "frame" and drag it to the trash.

Add wallpapers.

Does anyone know of a way to add wallpapers to the list of provided wallpapers that come with the phone? I don't know if you have noticed but when you use these wallpapers the status bar becomes transparent on the home screens but reverts to normal colour if you use any other type of wallpaper. This would allow a transparent status bar with any wallpaper without the issues that come with forcing transparency with frameworks like 3minit (an ugly grey status bar in apps etc.)

I have tried the transparency in 3mint and it leaves the bar looking a really ugly grey in certain applications. What I'm looking for is the status bar to be transparent on the homescreen in TW but normal everywhere else. The provided wallpapers do this.

I've got it to work, I decompiled the stock SecWallpaperChooser.apk and changed the ones I didn't like for some of my own ones. Then recompiled and it works fine.
Keep original file names and image sizes and make 2 images, one is the thumbnail and one the main image.
I made a new apk icon for the wallpapers too, the image is in the same folder within the apk.

Hide navbar on lockscreen?

Hi! I'm running the latest paranoid Android and i was wondering if hiding the navbar on the lockscreen only was possible. I looked all over the internet and couldnt find any information. Could anyone help me please?

I apologize in advance, since I'm not that familiar with PA...
On Carbon I have a thing called "Transparency Settings" wich regulate transparency for navbar and statusbar, with separate settings for lockscreen. You might just have something like it.

edit: Okay if you mean the black bar is showing, even with the buttons, it's a strange behavior with Android hopefully Google will fix it. The only way I know of is to set the phone in expanded mode, sorry.

Thank you for responding! It's OK i can live without this feature...

Stock Wallpaper and Transparent Notification

I did a little research and wanted to know if I really have the right info regarding wallpapers and the notification bar.
Please: no need to tell me to root or to use an alternative launcher. I am well-versed in both, but I remain interested in staying stock and using the default laucher.
So, is it the case that:
- The only way to have a transparent notification bar (it looks great) is to use the stock, LG-supplied wallpaper?
- There is no way to add to the stock wallpaper collection?
Thanks in advance.

I have the exact same question as OP

I currently use Xposed and Gravitybox for transparent action bar (nav. bar) and status bar, but only for home screen mode. In lockscreen the bars show wallpaper of homescreen not set lockscreen wallpaper

Thanks ZenWan - but Xposed is only for rooted devices, right?
Although I have plenty of experience with rooting and custom ROMs on previous phones, I really want to keep my G2 completely stock.

Aye, I believe it only works with rooted devices. But fair enough, understand your reason ^_^

There's ZOR over at the Theme's section who makes his own themes. Chose's his own wallpapers and icons and all and still has transparent as stock. I saw in one of a couple pages that he posted a link on to how he made them. that could be another way to achieve that. I myself wanted to keep but my impatience made me root; xposed and now i have that and way more options. are you afraid to void your warranty?

Heads up notifications [How disable it?]

Hi, I notice that lollipop stock introduces heads up notifications. I hate them! Is there a method to disable it? I saw this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ble-heads-notifications-t3032442/post58887824) but it functions also in Samsung Rom.

This is the best you can find about it. I am using it in the leaked stock rom V30a and it works perfectly. In this way the annoying heads up dissapear and instead of them you will see the old small and nice icon on the status bar, the same like kitkat. I recommend you. Of course, you need to have installed Xposed Frame.

With HeadsOff lollipop heads-up notifications can now be disabled!
No root needed.
You can also restore the ticker text in the statusbar!
