[Q] How do I enable this? - General Questions and Answers

I've watched a concept video titled "Lock Screen Drawer", and there are many comments saying that it's already on Android. Therefore, I assume that it's just set to off by default.

I've tried swiping from the lock screen clock but nothing happens?
I can't seem to find any settings in the Settings app either.
How do I enable this?
Thanks.

Mine does this if I have only the "slide to unlock" type lock screen. It doesn't if the lock screen requires a password for obvious security reasons. :cyclops:

Are you talking about the notification shade? Yours can be dragged from the clock?

Your video is pointing towards iOS, not towards Android... Think Droid's have to wait for it.
It's functionality within the lockscreen, that you can have a drawer at the top (or half way) to be pulled down, so can start functions from there without unlocking the phone.

How do you allow scrolling in a <ul> list for android?

My android app is running fine but on one of the pages there is a list that is longer then the phones screen and it will not allow you to scroll down. How do you fix this?

[Q] Is there an app to protect a particular screen from viewing?

Hi, everybody!
I've got a question regarding the privacy of screens on my android device.
I'd like to lock one screen from viewing. For example: On the left screen there is business related stuff which should not be seen by other people. If you scroll to this screen, it would be nice if there will show up a black window with the message: "This screen is locked. Please enter your password." - After entering the password the screen will unlock itself and you can browse through your files, apps and widgets on this screen.
Is there any app?
Thanks for your help!

Sorry i misunderstood your qustion, smart app lock won't help you only with locking apps.
maybe try to download a different launcher like go launcher it might help you but not sure.

Lock Screen Wallpaper

Anyone figure this one out yet? I have been scratching my head trying to be able to change mine. I followed some guys instructions on Reddit, but that didn't work for me. Wondering if anyone else had figured it out.

Can you post a screenshot? I'm just curious at this point. There's also access to some settings from the lock screen.
Edit: disregard, it just goes to system settings or Nagar settings.

Here's how to change it:
Long press on an empty area of the home screen
At the bottom, choose "Lockscreen Wallpaper"
Make your selection
Hit "Set For LockScreen Wallpaper"

Do you have the phone? If so your phone is different than mine. I don't have a lockscreen wallpaper option.

nope.
The lockscreen wallpaper is kind of annoying, but the persistent "This device is HD capable" notification is driving me out of my mind.

He's using the stock launcher. If you switch back to that, you can change the lock screen wallpaper with a long press on the homescreen.

Unfortunately, I didn't (well, at least not for what you're seeing in that screenshot). If you visit plus.google.com in Chrome, it offers to put a link to the site on your home screen. So, that icon just opens the web version of Google+. I did install Google+ earlier today, but because I had to sign it myself to remove the conflicting permissions (it conflicts with the improperly built Gallery app), Google's servers rejected the client. IMO, the only chances we have of getting a working Google+ installed are 1) if the phone is rooted, then we should be able to replace the Gallery app with a non-broken one, or 2) Lenovo needs to fix it. Option 2 might happen by accident if they ever decide to release Android 7.
Looks like you can only change the lock screen wallpaper to a static picture, no live wallpapers unfortunately. On other phones you can.
Also, I can install and use Google+ just fine it seems, perhaps because I installed their latest December update.

My stock launcher somehow become corrupted, every second, I get "Unfortuantely Launcher has stopped working". It was a ***** to get to the Google Play store between saying, "ok" and having the message pop again in 1 second. So I was able to get into Play store and install another Launcher that is near the original Launcher_3. However, it does not have that LockScreen Walpaper mode.
I don't know how to fix and reinstate the original launcher. Even after trashing and reinstalling it, it still doesn't work.
Any insight?

App Duo Shortcuts from Edge Panel

I cannot find a way to create an app duo. I go to the edge panel, and I can select one app to add it, but I cannot find a place to make a new app duo. It's supposed to have an "add" button somewhere I read... But I see it no where. Anyone else having this issue? Am I just missing something? A setting somewhere? I never had this issue on my Note10+ so I don't think I'm just being dumb... But who knows.

Then it makes a folder. I tried that. So then when you click it, a folder pops up as opposed to two apps in splitscreen.

Thank you so much! Now that I have seen it, it's quite easy... But I never would have found that. Tapping the split screen bar is something I have never done, haha.

Question How can I remove this from home Screen?

Wondering if someone can please help me to remove this circle area. I don't really want that on home screen. I could rather use widget.
It is not possible without root or another launcher.
Home Settings - At A Glance
Google really fakced up this time. Probably said before but they're really lost!

Yes you can, this has been posted and explained here before not too long ago. You need to be rooted and if I'm correct use the xposed framework

Exactly , I was about to post that screenshot to ask lol. Just received 7 pro a hour ago and was setting it up. Thanks bud.
As an alternative, you can just set up another home screen without At A Glance.
Lawnchair or nova your best bet
I used Niagara for a couple of days and paid for the full version this morning. Love the 'empty' screen!
Please tell me how to remove this information from the locked screen? a flashlight also appears instead of the date ((very annoying. There are no lock screen settings in AOSP.

Are you using a Pixel 7?
Your best bet for fixing the flashlight issue is to probably install a Pixel Launcher, stock or modded and customize your At A Glance settings. As for the lock screen weather, not so sure you can turn that one off.

I installed the standard pixel, turned off everything that was possible, the flashlight disappeared, but I can’t remove the date and weather. phone pixel 7 pro
Home Settings >> At a Glance >> See more features >> Disable Weather.
Unfortunately, I am not sure how to remove the date. My apologies there.

It was the same on my 4XL. It's nuts that they put that on the homescreen. Every morning when I turn the phone on, I have to swipe left to get to the homescreen I want to use. I don't want to root, or change the launcher. Back in the day, I was able to choose the homescreen page I wanted.
