All,
I want to change the default clock widget in Screen lock to the one used in G5 (the circle widget with time & weather).
I have installed the G5 widget, but don't see an option to change the screen lock clock widget!
Any clues how it can be done?

6.0.x
Twrp+root+xposed+gravity box. Maybe any other xposed module.
7.0
There isn't xposed for Nougat. Can't be done.
We haven't been able to change or do anything with lockscreen widgets since Jelly Bean, without root/Xposed... Google took that away as a security risk, and rightly so.
Thanks dzidexx, have just upgraded to 7.0 Nougat, so no chance I guess.
Thanks acejavelin. Too bad we can't change the screen lock widget

Check out the unofficial Xposed. Risky as it's a new port and not from rovo89 but it could be worth it

I read the thread about doing this on the Galaxy Nexus, but the directions don't seem to be translatable to my N4. I'm on rooted stock with franco's kernel and I'd simply like to remove the alarm information from the lock screen. If this is not possible, then perhaps there is a way to move it down so that it is not on the same line as the date?

Download Fixed Clock from the Play Store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.alamoapps.unboldedclockwidget&hl=en
Set it as a lock screen widget
Remove the stock clock lock screen widget
Among other features hiding alarm is a function of fixed clock
wow, i hadn't even considered the idea that the stock clock may be a widget, and therefore removable! i disabled widgets with lock screen policy soon after getting my N4 and hadn't thought about the concept since, but this is a fantastic reason to re-enable and embrace them. thanks so much for the solution, skielbasa.
Welcome
Surely I can't be the only one who is annoyed by the silly lockscreen animations that LG implements into their firmware. I just want a nice simple lockscreen animation that isn't a "Crystal" or a "Dew drop". Why not just have a simple fade? Is this too much to ask? I recently flashed to Cyanogenmod 10, and its nice, but it is missing some key features that the stock firmware had, like the transparent soft keys on the home screen, or the Quick Remote app, so I'm thinking of restoring it to the stock firmware. Does anyone know a solution to the stock lockscreen rubbish?
I love them, their awesome, they make want to go back to stock everytime.

but it you want to disable you will need a different lockscreen app.
try finding which apk is responsible for lockscreen animation, probably weather freeze it at own risk and check.

My bad, I haven't really done this before, and just took a stab in the dark.
Hello guys i recently installed CM 12 passed from my beloved Optimus G3, anyway i wonder if it's possible to auto hide the softkeys and make them smaller, also if there is any way to get more icons in the drawer ( increase/ decrease DPI i think?) those thinks are huge!
- Also if you guys can give me some advice on what to install next, i don't like CM, will there be a lolipop version of Optimus/Cloudy G3?

Download a custom launcher from the playstore like Nova or Apex. You'll be able to set your drawer and home screen grid size accordingly. Changing your dpi within your build.prop wont actually give you more space to put icons, it just scales the graphics.
Just install CloudyG2 2.2 or CloudyStock and you'll never use another ROM again . You'll see a lot more lollipop development once all the G2 models receive the OTA update.
Thanks, for the info , do you also happen to know if there is a way to hide the softkeys, i don't think its possible to use g2/g3 tweakbox on CM right?

Not to my knowledge, CM12 is still unofficial for the G2 and doesn't contain the expanded desktop mode feature just yet like CM11 does. I say just stick with KK ROMs until Android 5 becomes stable and feature packed (aka wait a few months).

It does? Beautiful! Glad to have helped. Remember, you can tweak expanded desktop mode even more by choosing to only hide the status bar, nav bar or both.
Hi peeps. Could anyone share there lockscreen screenshots here? See mine. It has that irreplaceable white status bar which looks really awkward ;( Consider that I've done so many things already to make it transparent except rooting.
All ok
Basic lockscreen with a cloud that cloud that moves with the gyroscope
How do you edit the lock screen? Want to change my background and clock widget to match my home screen -- sorry im coming from an apple so im new to android os

Found this polygon wallpaper. The colors look really nice on my gold edge.

There's a lot of apps you can download that changes the lookscreen and adds customizability
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cmcm.locker&hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.appplus.hilocker&hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.achep.acdisplay
do any of these work with fingerprint scanner? CM says it does, but i don't see the option in their menu -- just pattern or password.

Guys, can I hijack this thread to ask if your backlight is on when you use a pure black wallpaper as your lock screen wallpaper?
My blacks are pure black when I open my screensaver in the gallery (if i tap the screen to remove the UI, I can't see the screen at all in a dark room) and it's the same for most screens except for the lock screen. In the lock screen it almost appears gray or it appears like it's affected by backlight bleeding. Just wanted to find out if it's a software bug (since it's almost like the Night Clock bug) or if it's a defect with my phone. I also cleared my cache with no success.
Also, how do you take a screenshot of the lock screen?

Not sure if they work with the s6 edge, might have to wait for that support. I'll personally just wait for xposed to be updated so i can get fun stuff like wanam xposed, and just live with the current launcher, as i really like the fingerprint scanner.

You can change wallpaper by long pressing on an empty space in the homescreen. It goes into edit mode and you will see a wallpaper icon and label at the bottom left. Tap that and you are directed to another menu to select whether to apply your wallpaper to just your home or lockscreen or both. You can also go to settings>wallpaper to change wallpapers.
As for the weather, the design changes accordingly with the theme you choose.
Hope this helps.

Tap on your homescreen weather widget. Go to more>settings>show weather information. Profit.

Press home+powerkey simultaneously to get a screenshot anywhere in your phone.
Thanks so much for sharing guys. I wonder if there's a way to get rid of that white status bar I have in the lockscreen. It just looks so ugly. Hopefully an upcoming FW update from my carrier would fix it. :fingers-crossed:
Does someone know how to get the wallpaper the S6 gets when it's on update mod? Blue cyan w/bugdroid on the middle. I really love it
Simple look.

I don't understand why there is a shortcut to the camera on the lockscreen?
I thought you could open the camera frem everywhere with two cliks on the home button?

Why the need to change that? You only see that when there's an update. Do you get an update every hour?
From 1st to 4th... New lock screen, new recents, new notification shade (2 pics).
7/8/16- Download latest version of Good Lock app (v24.0.11)
what is this? it doesn't look like anything out right now....how did you get it?
Apparently you can download the apk from sammobile but it's not working for me... I get a parsing package error. I'm on 5.1.1 when I tried this so you probably need 6.0.1 for it to work. On sammobile, the post was towards s7/s7e users through...
Give the dowbload link

Here's link
quick review:
1. it looks nice, but you can't change the color of the notification panel and toggles
2. the recent apps screen reminds me of older android versions, no picture or tabs, just the name of the app
hope they update it with some more settings

You can change the colours by editing the default routine, or creating a new one.

thanks, but it's a bit annoying, if you make your own profile it needs to have the location toggle on, if you cancel it everytime you wake up the device it asks to enable location toggle, and pressing the recent apps button is slow, and when you press the home button to get to the home screen there is a delay....i guess it's not ready yet

Same problems as you. Uninstalled....... for now. Hopefully it gets lots of updates with new features, bug fixes, etc. That'd be really awesome. Can't wait to see how this develops.
