Replace Lockscreen with Ambient Display - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

Is there any way to completely replace the lockscreen with the ambient display?
I already set it to tap-to-show ambient display and also using the accelerometer, but when I press the powerbutton the regular lockscreen still shows up. Can I somehow hide that thing and replace it with that beautiful, sleek, black screen?

Set up face unlock and check the option to unlock automatically and you'll barely see the lockscreen.
But I doubt you'll be able to replace it entirely, it doesn't even make much sense to me as to why you'd want to. Set a black wallpaper for your lockscreen.

[Q] How do I get Clock with Weather on S4 Lock Screen?

I am trying to get the clock and the weather widget to show up on my lock screen - my old NOTE2 had the option in Lockscreen settings to show weather on Lock screen but I cant find that option here.
I was able to add a weather widget to the lock screen - but when you first open the lock screen all you see is the clock - then, if I swipe down on the screen - it opens the weather ap - see my screen shots attached.
The first is what you see when you first get to the lock screen
the second is what you see when youi swipe down.
I am wanting to get the look of the second screen shot - when you first see the lock screen -
any suggestions?
S4 Weather
I couldn't find a way to do it either, so I downloaded this little app and it's kind of cool.

You can add several other notifications to it as well.
I use beautiful widgets on all my devices, lets me set weather, clock, battery, and all completely customizable. One of the few apps I ever paid for.

Can you set it up with pattern security? The images on the Play store shows that you can but I haven't been able to do so. Every time I set up the widget and set the pattern security, it reverts back to the standard default clock.
Well I did once, but it has now reverted to the regular lock screen. Looks like maybe a bug - The other notification extensions I picked are taking up the whole screen. When I first installed it moved everything small up next to the clock when I had the pattern visible on the lock screen. I'm not sure how to make the widget smaller as of yet. Other users have reported the same problem, so maybe there will be a future fix.

Good lockscreen replacement?

I would like to change the stock lockscreen to something more appealing.
I use pin lock but want to have weather displayed, beeing able to use camera (preferably with the swipe gesture) and maybe also upcoming tasks.
Is there any lockscreen that supports this? (camera is optional if thats not possible with pin lock set)...
Problem is that with pin set you can no longer add widgets to make your own lockscreen, but I'm sure there are lockscreen replacements that can change this or?

flashlight: lockscreen + brightness?

I have a rooted 6p running the latest stock rom, and I have two questions about flashlight:
1) Is there a lockscreen widget that would allow me to turn on the (camera) flashlight by e.g. double tapping an icon on the lockscreen, without first unlocking the phone?
(I installed gravitybox and I can put on the lockscreen an icon of a third-party flashlight app, but to run that app I need to first unlock the phone with pin and/or fingerprint).
2) Is it possible to adjust the brightness of the flashlight when used as a flashlight and without affect the brightness when used with the camera?
Thanks!

First of, you do not need to unlock your phone to turn on the flashlight. You can pull down the notification screen even when the phone is locked. to turn on the flash light.
I do not think, you can adjust the brightness of the flashlight without using a third party app. Try Flashlight app.

You can use the wake gestures app. I have it set up so swiping right turns the flashlight on. Works without the screen being on as well.

Is it the wake on gesture app in the store by team.fluxion?
Not what you were asking for, but I use power button flashlight. 3 pushes of the power button turns the flashlight on.
You can also pay for the additional option if you want to turn the flashlight off using 3 presses. Otherwise you have to tap the app to turn the light off.
The flashlight 3 presses are more of a dash dash dash press, slower presses with a short pause between the presses. Whereas the camera 2 button presses are like a dot dot action (rapid presses one after the other Like Morse code).

Ambient Display?

Anyway to replace AOD with Androids Ambient Display?
AOD is nice, but I'd rather have Ambient displays. Ambient Displays temporary feature which just shows notifications briefly is what I'd prefer instead of just an icon and a big ass click always there.
There used to be Xposed modules but those are pretty much gone nowadays.
Download NILS.

I believe NILS is for lockscreen notifications only, it won't replace AOD screen.
Ambient display turns on the screen when you receive a notification. This is exactly what NILS does if you set it that way and turn off it's notification service, so it'll turn on the screen when you receive notifications and show the standard notifications from the phone you're using.

Notifications help

I moved from iphone x recently, have few questions about notifications on 0p6t
1.Is there any way to group notification s on lockscreen as well as panel by app.
2. I have turned off ambient display and wake up phone to unlock by face id, on iphone when it is locked you get notification without showing the content, but when you look at it and unlock, the notification will expand and show the content on the lockscreen, any way to get this on 0p6t
3. When ever I try to reply from lockscreen, after it recognises my face and unlocks, it takes me to home screen and there I can reply, is there any way to reply directly from lockscreen.
Thanks.

1. Notifications are already grouped by app even on lock screen. Android starts grouping only after certain number of notifications
2. Not exactly, but Android has similar as well. You can change setting Apps & Notifications - Notifications - On the lockscreen to Hide sensitive content. Not as polished as iPhone x, but it works..
3. You can turn off Auto unlock once the screen is on setting under Settings - Security and Lock screen - Face Unlock
