Maximize lockscreen widgets - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I managed to activate lockscreen widgets by ticking the box at Settings -> Security -> Allow Widgets. I know placed the Chronous widget on the lockscreen but I don't see any calendar entries since the widget is not maximized. I remember on CM there was an option for that. Where can I find it now?

Leaked Gingerbread Lockscreen Icons?

Is there any way to modify the icons that are displayed on the lockscreen? I bought bettercut for that purpose, but it seems that I can't use it to change the icons on the lockscreen itself, just make shortcuts with new icons.

Menu -> Settings -> Personalize -> Lockscreen -> chose the lockscreen you want then press "settings" Form here, you should be able to change the icons.
I'm no longer running GB so the above is from memory.
Also, if you're using another launcher, you have to go back to the Sense launcher to make the change. Once you change it, you can go back to your launcher of choice.

I don't think the op is talking about just changing the shortcut but more so the icon that is displayed for that shortcut.
This is just an example but something like instead of the stock gmail icon maybe a happy face.

[Q] adding HTC toggle widgets in non-sence homescreen

Hello
I would like to use the HTC Sense Toggle Widgets on a HTC phone with an open source home screen replacement. The "Settings" option does not show on the list of widgets
Does anyone have the right settings (componentname etc) that I would need to add to the AppWidgetPicker call from my alternate (ADW) homescreen?
Thanks!

Sensation Lockscreen with no icons?

Hi there,
I hate the new sensation lockscreen as it doesnt allow me to show sms/ gmail unread [or does it?] so has anyone got a sensation lockscreen with no icons?
cheers
Probably you removed them by accident? go to Personalize -> Lock Screen -> Settings, there you should be able to add whatever icons you want to your lockscreen.

[Q] Removing widget size options for Beautiful Widgets

Is there any way to reduce the amount of Beautiful Widgets widget size options (e.g. 4x2, 4x4, etc.) from the widget list? Is it possible from the Beautiful Widgets settings menu (which would be preferred), or do I need to do it through a different method?
Note that I'm not on a rooted phone. Thanks for any help.
Not just with Beautiful Widgets, but with all other apps too. Some apps have this option, but they are few...
It's hard to scroll over lots of unused widgets on ICS.
There has to be some way to do it through the Beautiful Widgets settings, no? I mean it adds like 14 widget choices to the list, surely such a popular app would have the option to remove some of them?

[Q] lock menu

Lock menu is a nice lockscreen app. You can put your shorcuts on the lockscreen. But does anyone know a similar application which has menu options and a lock?
Widget Locker is among the more popular apps that does this.
