Default camera // lockscreen camera? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to set a different camera app as the default when using the lockscreen's native swipe-left-for-camera gesture? Failing that, is there a lockscreen widget for opening the camera, which will let me choose my preferred default?

Anyone? I've heard that you're supposed to be asked which camera app you'd like to use when swiping on the lockscreen. Can anyone comment on this?

Can you customize HTC's lockscreen?

I'd like to switch out the available apps and possibly do something with that huge open space. Possible?
When your adding the lockscreen you want tap settings and chose the app you want to change.

Modify the Default Camera opened from the Lockscreen Swype

So I have done some searching, and have not found a specific answer to this.
Is it possible to change the camera that opens when I swipe to the left from the lock screen? It opens the default camera, but does not present a choice to use Camera Awesome!, for example.
I would like to be able to do this too.

Wouldn't it happen once you make QuickPic the standard gallery app? If not, then I'm not sure if we can do it without editing files - I'm not sure which one.
Nope doesn't work.. Never had a prompt for a default gallery app either.
For the default gallery app, try setting up a wallpaper. It'll prompt you to select the right app. I use buzz launcher, so try putting a different launcher and setting the wallpaper. That should surely give you the popup.
But now that you've pointed it out, even I can't seem to select quickpic as default for camera. But honestly, why does it matter? I use QP only to filter folders that should be shown in gallery.

Personalize locksreen

Hi,
Is there any way to personalize the lockscreen (withou installing a new lockscreen app)?
I'm having issues with the meteorology app, beacuse it is always requesting GPS.
Or is there a way to stop the meteorology app from using GPS and just use a city choose by me?
I don't want it accessing the GPS all the time. I've already took it away from the homescreen but I haven't found a way to take it from the lockscreen.
Question 1, no not without installing another launcher. The icons on the LockScreen are the ones on the Dock.
Question 2, I would check in the Meterology App Settings, something along the lines of Location, Default home or something like that. Hard to tell when no one knows exactly which app you are referring to. Most likely look in Settings.
Hi,
Thanks for the answer and sorry for not being explicit.
I was talking about the weather app that comes with the phone.
If I add a new widget from that app to the homescreen I can choose a specific city but the widget on the lockscreen keeps updating using GPS.
If i use another weather app on the homescreen, the one on the lockscreen will not change and it will still be the one that came with the phone.

Basically the same applies. Go into Weather app, Menu(3 dots), Settings and unclick Auto detect my location.
It was the first thing I did!

Are there any APP which can help me set lockscreen wallpapers?

Hello everyone.
I'm using a very bad Android device. It's very bad.
I just want to set one picture as lockscreen wallpaper, but I find it is impossible. On this device.
The gallery apps doesn't support 'set as lockscreen wallpaper'.
I checked the system settings. It's broken. while tapping on the 'wallpaper settings', nothing happens. It's broken, it's very broken.
Are there any other 3rd app could help me setting lockscreen wallpaper?
(Also know that there are not any other roms for this device, so don't suggest me to change a rom)
use wallpapers app by google inc
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.wallpaper&hl=en
or you can use any third party launcher like nova launcher
