As the thread says, share your homescreen with everyone. Also, include instructions as to how you achieved it, i.e.
- which launcher
- share the wallpaper
- share the widgets you're using
I will share mine next week as soon as I get the tablet.
Use SCREEN MAKER App to make it look like the screenshot is actually a picture of your device itself.
I'd love to see a screenshot of Nova Launcher running on the Xperia Z.

Nova Launcher Prime. Hopefully there will be a way to flash CM or any other AOSP based rom on the Wifi version as I can't stand the Honeycomb like nav buttons and all the Sony bloatware. Tried to replace most of the Sony apps with proper stock Android apps, and thankfully Nova Launcher let's me hide all the things I don't need.
Chose this tablet because of the unavailability of the Nexus 10 over here, the weight of the tablet, and the (wrong) assumption this tablet would be easy to turn into a "pseudo-Nexus" because of Sony's involvement in AOSP.
So hopefully some clever devs will find a way soon.
edit: oh sorry, the widgets:
Press, Google+ and Feedly
Updated. Loving it so much more now with stock Android / CM 10 on it!

Sorry if I didn't catch it, but what widget is the one telling you time, calendar, battery etc? Looks amazing!

Hey, looks nice, can you tell me what app you use to make a folder look like a normal icon?
Edit: Nevermind I just figured you can do that in Nova Launcher -

That's probably because Dashclock needs Android 4.2.2, and the stock Sony firmware is on 4.1 I believe

Thanks, for this relevant answer, will wait until Sony update its rom to 4.2.2,
Stock Sony XPERIA Launcher (I haven't tried the DoCoMo launcher), panels 1 to 5.
Panel 1 is at the extreme end for stuff I don't pay attention to so much, i.e. Socialife.
Panel 2 is a blank panel, so that I can just enjoy the wallpaper, or, well, when I want a blank panel.
Panel 3, central home panel, has the information I generally look for, plus the most commonly accessed shortcuts/a music player widget.
Panel 4, extended weather info only, with time.
Panel 5, full-size music player.
This sort of layout has been sort of traditional for me, and I use some variation of it on all my Android devices.
I use a combination of Minimalistic Text, Sony's stock widgets and Poweramp, while weather is provided by 1Weather's widget.
I'm not too fancy or anything though I suppose I ought to spend time properly doing something unusual and nice, given the XPERIA is hardly a usual tablet.
Wallpaper is via the Music Visualizer app, with a self-edited image for an idle wallpaper. It'll change to visualizer bars when sound plays above a certain volume threshold (i.e. the sound of system clicks doesn't trigger it).
I have PowerToggles on the system bar and Realtime Task Manager on the Small Apps shortcut. I'm honestly a fan of the single-system bar layout. I absolutely abhor the idea of having two on-screen bars consuming screen space.
I might replace the Socialife widgets with Flipboard's or something, because they constantly blank themselves needing a refresh, and sometimes it just seems that they're sluggish.
I love magancete's look, it's very unique!
Just get it today & current look for my Sony Xperia Tablet Z.

Hi,
I have Android 4.3 on Sony Xperia Z1 Compact.
On my lockscreen I have three widgets. I noticed that, when the phone is in the pocket for example, sometimes the widgets are moved around, or removed, or activated... I'd like to find a way to block / lock the widgets in the lockscreen, like that they couldn't be removed or moved around until I uncheck a box or something. So the first widget is that one, the second is that one, and the third is that one, and if I want to change the order or remove then I need to unlock/unblock my settings.
FYI I have a pattern to unlock the phone.
I haven't been able to find this option. Any idea ?
Thanks
I tried both GravityBox lockscreen mod and the Lockscreen Mod xposed modules and neither of them work or display the 6 additional shortcuts, has anybody gotten this to work on our Stylo, or are there any other lockscreen mods I don't know about? I want the six extra shortcuts.
I enabled it added the desired shortcuts but don't see it taking affect yet. Just wanna spice up my lockscreen, without installing a new lockscreen.
Yeah the lock screen on this phone seems to be LG proprietary not AOSP, same with power menu. You aren't gonna get those AOSP mods to work. I use CM Locker along with CM Launcher. They have very small footprints (less RAM than the default home & lockscreen even) and have better features I think.

Kind of figured that, I was just curious as to if there were any LG Lockscreen mod's that were compatible with our Stylo.
CM Cheetah Mobile or Cyanogen Mod?
I'll pass on Cheetah Mobile a Chinese/Asian developer who is infamously known for sniffing out and leaking Asia's users personal info, sure it's not happening or reported here in America but who is to say they aren't doing the same dirty business with those users info.
Hey guys. I want to set a different lockscreen but I don't see any option for doing such. The lockscreen always remains the same as the homescreen. I would like to set adifferent picture as my lockscreen. Can you suggest any ways to this? I have root access on my Moto G3
Are you running a CM based rom? Also in the latest version of Google Now Launcher you can change it

i suppose what you are saying is about..
Keeping Two different wallpapers for LOCKSCREEN and HOMESCREEN ( like lumia, Mi devices) isnt it??
IF yes, do one thing.. install a LOCKSCREEN from playstore.. give it notification access and device permissions so that it can work as your Default Lock screen, and Disable real lockscreen present on your phone..
if the lockscreen allows you to keep wallpaper, then keep it ..
So I can't seem to find anywhere if there's a way to put custom notifications on the lockscreen. I just switched from S5 on KitKat to the S7 Edge on MM and I'm trying to set it up to my liking, but it seems like so many things are missing from it.
I don't like the Good Lock app it looks bad to me. I had Chronus widgets setup on my lockscreen and I like to scroll to access more widgets as well. I think there was a tweak from Xposed to enable that on the S5 and then the setting was available in the Lockscreen settings, however now I can't find a way.
Is MM that locked down? Is there any way to get custom widgets on the Lockscreen at all??
You are going to try some 3rd party lockscreen apps. For example C Locker or WidgetLocker.
