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

Can someone tell me, how I can add a weather widget on my lock screen?
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

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?
Hi,
EMUI 5.0 has introduced a new design for the notifications, and I have two questions :
My notifications do appears on my lockscreen, but if I unlock my phone, and re-lock it right away, they do not show anymore. Is there any fix ?The current notificaton design make it really difficult to read the preview as the police color is extremely light, and on a white background. Is there any way to tweak it ?
Thanks in advance.
I updated my p9 lite and I can't unlock it with fingerprint anymore!! Why??

Hi guys,
So I've just installed the latest S8 update, which killed the color picker for the navbar and essentially gives you all white colors (Screenshot attached). Even if I use "Apply current theme", it's still white in some apps (e.g. Play Store, Instagram, Snapchat, Whatsapp many more). So I've downloaded "Navbar Apps" and it does the job of getting my navbar to a full black, but only sometimes. Im using a dark theme and have been using black navbars since they existed (why does Samsung even have white ones lolol) and navbar apps doesn't work 50% of the time and doesn't have the "ripple" animation when pressed, so I would really like a stable, solid black navbar. Any ideas? Thanks!
Same thing here...
The best thing would be to make it translucent IMO.

Lol, thanks that actually worked (although I had to sacrifice the ripple animation). Still looking for a more seamless way to fix this though. To anyone interested: here's how I set it up (Screenshot attached). Can't really notice the translucency, but it looks black and that's what I'm going for.
Cheers!
I have my phone set to dark mode but nothing happens on the new pie update as it still stays light. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks so much

I have also tried this and it doesn't work. Anyone have ideas why?
I found the fix! Flip the theme to dark theme in the settings and then install this all black wallpaper below. That will turn everything to the dark theme. Once everything is dark you can switch the wallpaper to any other wallpaper and it should stay in the dark theme. Hope this helps!
I'm seeing the same thing on Pie...
@stu5797 why did you make the image 2560x1440? Because the phone resolution I thought for images is 1312x2560?
Actually all u need to do is switch to any of the essential wallpapers that are dark and the dark theme will kick in

Well don't you think we tried that already?
Nope, only changes the App Drawer dark for me, and I assumed all the UI was going to be dark too?

What the Notifications appeared dark? Mine where still white.
The only change I saw was a dark app drawer and the Power button menu in dark color...

Only thing for me is I have to keep the wall paper , can't change to live one has to be a device wallpaper
Bro how did you get it to work? I have 998 version and the theme but it won't work.
@gorm ahh ok, my bad, notification panel on mine dark too...
You would think the 'Settings' UI would also be Dark? Hmm
Guys - To take a step back to the basics on these conversations, where are you guys seeing the "Dark" theme option, any way? Unless you guys are talking about Rooted or Unrooted Substratum themes with Andromeda (Unrooted)?As far as I can tell, there is no dark option in the stock firmware, is there? Other than inverted colors?
As for my experience, installing a dark wallpaper on the final Pie release, I am in fact able to successfully get the dark notification tiles, NOT the notifications themselves, which are still white.
Sorry for the request for obvious clarity, thanks!
No need to select a dark wallpaper in order to get dark quick settings toggles..that's the only thing goes dark,alongside with the slider of the audio level and the menu when pressing the power button...

Hello all
is it safe to use some lockscreen replacement app in my stock OP6T??
the stock lockscren makes the wallpapers incredibly ugly...
it makes the wallpapers always greenish or blueish or yellowish and etc etc etc...
in my research on how to fix that, I noticed that it is not possible... so I thought in trying a third app as lockscreen.
can someone tell me if it is possible and maybe suggest one??
You won't be able to use the fingerprint on any other lockscreen.
