[HowTo] Android 4.2.2 lockscreen notifications on Android 4.1.2 - Android General

How to get Android 4.2.2+ lockscreen notifications on Android 4.0.X - 4.1.X
1. Install WidgetLocker Lockscreen
2. Remove clock & WidgetLocker's slide locker (not the default Android slide lock)
3. Install NiLS Notifications Lock Screen
4. Open WidgetLocker & add the NiLS widget
5. Resize the NiLSwidget so it extends as far up as you can and down as far as you can drag it just above your default lock icon
6. Now it will almost look like Android 4.2.2 like in the screenshot on the NiLS Play Store page
If anyone would like more information, please reply and I would be happy to add more including a screenshot tutorial. It took me awhile (<n00b) to figure this out, so I imagine I'm not the only one that might like to do this.

mistake and restore jelly bean lockscreen
Hi,
i have a little problem because i removed with WidgetLocker Lockscreen a jelly bean button ( with camera left, up with google now and right with unlock lockscreen )
my question is: how can i restore it?
i tried to restore it with WidgetLocker Lockscreen that have this button but isn't the same like original because don't have google now up.
thanks for the support

I meant remove WidgetLocker's slider, not the default Android lock slider. I did the same thing you did by accident, too. Just choose the ics or jellybean theme depending on what version of Android you're running and you'll have it back.

i tried to put off and on jelly bean theme from jelly mod from my samsung s advance but seems like WidgetLocker's slider remember my mistake, very strange, it's possible that my last chance is delete and reinstall WidgetLocker's ?

Yes, uninstalling/ reinstalling WidgetLocker should work.

Thanks for the tips!
Thanks for the tips!

I realized I missed an important step & edited the first post accordingly:
4. Open WidgetLocker & add the NiLS widget

just long press on empty space and press add a locker, then choose jelly bean theme

Screen shots would be great
Specifically of step 2, removing the clock and slide locker (I think that's two separate steps) and
step 4, adding the NiLS widget.
Thanks,
LG Optimus G running 4.1.2

Hi,will it work on GB roms?

Man, WidgetLocker stepped up their game! Sense 3.0 Lockscreen!

I'm running CM7 right now and all I really missed was the sense 3.0 customizable lockscreen. I figured in the meantime I could use widgetlocker and at least have a customizable lockscreen. TO MY SURPRISE, they have updated the sliders to include a honeycomb circle slider and a customizable Sense 3.0 lockscreen slider that works perfectly!!!
Anyway I just wanted to share with all of you because it's the perfect solution if you're ever missing the 3.0 lockscreen with shortcuts - now you can use it on any ROM!

i Noticed that the ram usage by the app increases overtime.
for me it went up to 100mb, which is suprising coz i juz had the ics lock and clock on it.
had to kill and restart and then it starts at 15mb.
Is this a bug? contacted the dev but no reply.

I'm also using CM7 but I can't seem to get the WidgetLocker sliders to stick (Menu -> Add -> Custom Slider). It always goes back to the [android] slider after I click 'Save and Exit'. How did you manage to get the Sense 3.0 lockscreen to stay?
Edit: Never mind, got it. If you long press the Unlock button in Tool Mode, and choose Edit, the changes you make will stick.
Edit 2: So beautiful ;_;
Glad you got it working. I uninstalled it but then reinstalled it cause I thought it was killing my battery - turns out it was the CM7 kernel itself. I installed the virtuous V2 kernel and everything is running smoothly!
GoLocker is new one and it has some cool stuff too. It is also free.
just wondering if anybody using widgetlocker knows how to get the Shutter button to go straight to camera instead of first unlocking widgetlocker, and then going to camera (meaning I have to hold the shutter button for longer than I do without widgetlocker).
I just read up on GoLocker and it'll let you access the camera app directly with the hardware button. I'm not sure how to do it with WidgetLocker. I like the GoLocker pics but I hate how if you want themes you have to download all of them from the market and they show up as apps... Just me being picky I guess, though.

I am using GoLocker and I have not found that it lets you access camera directly, however I am using a screen called "Four Key" which has shortcuts for camera, phone & SMS. It also shows next alarm (including from alarm clock +), has option to let you use volume even when locked (good for quick silent/vibrate w/o unlocking), and also has option to use Genius Button w/o unlocking.

Lockscreen theming help

Hi, basically I love 2 things:
1) ICS stock lockscreen (left-aligned time and small accuweather widget, in that EXACT font)
2) Widgetlocker-style unlock (button in the middle that can access multiple apps straight from lockscreen)
3) Not required but I do enjoy the 'missed call/text' notifications right on the lockscreen instead of on the dropdown menu
Basically I got widget locker for point 2, but I can't get it to look like regular ICS...any tips?

you need a custom launcher found on the play store like nova/apex/adw launcher and download an icon pack from google play and apply it
can you give an example of list of launchers? i only know apex but it makes my menu icons squished how do i fix that?

nova by far is the best in my opinion
as you can set the type of icons through its launcher settings

New ROM has arrived on September 10, 2013: Nexus Flare (only for Jelly Bean 4.1.2)

Feel sad no more, the first AOSP Nexus-based Dual SIM ROM is here!​

OTA Update support
BRY Engine Tweaks

Fixed about phone strings (Baseband, Kernel, CPU, Memory, Build number, Build date)
No more carrier labels (So sim 2 can be disabled for single sim users, and no sim 2 signal icons would show up)
Issues:
Force close in the Trebuchet Launcher settings when clicking options like homescreen.
Lockscreen weather takes time to display itself.
Lockscreen clock in military time is BROKEN.
Screen Candy (Daydream) NOT WORKING. Please set it to OFF by going to Settings > Display > Screen Candy.
Trebuchet force closes at times.
Tesla Unread Plugin also force closes at times.
In-call reboot problem:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/83052220/Phone.apk Push this to system/app using Root Explorer, change permissions to RW-R--R-- then reboot.
Lockscreen weather guide:
First, enable lockscreen weather from Settings > Lockscreen then open either your GPS, WiFi or Data connection. Long press the Exclamation Icon in the lockscreen then turn screen off. When successful, the lockscreen would have the weather once you turn the screen back on. If not, try and try again. Also, try to open the News & Weather app to ensure you have a location set.
Notification bar toggle name and picture:
To set a picture and name in the toggle, just set your profile in the People app (Contacts) and set your profile then reboot.
Installation:
PC: Download 7-Zip File Manager and extract the .7z file.
Mobile: Download the app from here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver and then extract to External/Internal SD Card.
You will see a .zip inside. Flash that through TWRP recovery and don't forget to wipe cache and data.
BACKUP YOUR APPS/DATA BEFORE FLASHING TO AVOID LOSS OF DATA

Dimm icon on click / tap

Hello!
I am using Omega ROM (Android 4.1.2 with TouchWiz) for my Samsung Galaxy SII, and I have a stupid problem / need. When I click / tap on a icon in home screen or drawer, I want that icon to dimm a little, to show me that I actually clicked on it.
I decomplied TouchWiz launcher APK and found an interesting method in AppIconView.apk - it is called setDimmed, but unfortunately I have no idea what I can do with it. Can somebody take a look at my launcher apk, and with some magic add that dimming to icons on click / tap?
