[Q] Change between multiple lockscreens - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I have a (rooted) Nexus5 and I want to have multiple lockscreens, which I can change based on various condition (preferrably within Tasker using a copy or some sort ?)
E.g.:
- At home, I have a Sonos running, so I would like to have the sonos widget on my lockscreen so I can stop/pause/play from within the lockscreen
- At work, I would like to have my agenda on my lockscreen
- etc ...
I don't mind creating multiple screens using the 'stock' lockscreen app, and switch between them using file operations.
Has anybody done this before ?
Thx in advance !

Widget settings in ICS.

Hi All,
I updated my HTC Desire to ICS using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1355660 everything is awesome. But I have a query. I can't seem to find out how to alter settings for widgets like you could in gingerbread. When a widget is placed, I have no way of adjusting it. For example, the calendar, I want to set to a monthly view. It always gives me a daily view instead.
I'm using dk_zero_cool's BCM ICS on my desire, and it appears that there is no way to alter the settings. Some widgets will offer settings when they are placed, but others (like calendar and power control) appear to have no way to alter the settings.

Indeed. If widget has something to set, it prompt about it only by placing. But in ICS you can change size of some widgets! that was something missing in 2.3.x

Possible to disable lockscreen widgets, but replace clock with a custom one?

Title says it all... Basically, I want to remove/disable lockscreen widgets, (which is an option in many ROMS), however use a custom widget (instead of the standard clock)... get it?
I tried replacing the standard widget, then disable all widgets... however, unfortunately that brings backs the main clock lockscreen widget.
Anyway

Dont disable lockscreen widgets. Just add your custom widget and delete the page with stock widget , thats it

Ah, the reason I asked, is because I HATE to see the white highlight sqaures when I unlock the device.... (Love lockscreen widgets tho)... just wish I could make the white highlighting transparent... ;(
How about something like widget locker?

With cataclysm ROM, you can make it so that there's only 1 widget on the luck screen

[Q] QuickWindows Widgets

Is it possible to change the Widget style for QuickWindow within our phones. I am using one cover and it works flawlessly but I would like to change the style of the Clock, or probably get SMS Window instead of Weather etc. Is it possible to change these?

Lockscreen & Homescreen

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 ..

[MOD][APP][non-root][Android 12] Sony Xperia lockscreen clock mod to hide the lockscreen clock widget possible?

Hi,
On Sony's Xperia devices there is a dedicated app that provides the lockscreen clock/alarm widget (com.sonymobile.keyguard.clock). This clock has different layouts to select from but it cannot be hidden or disabled (just like the original Android clock can't).
I would like to hide/remove it so I can show my KLWP widgets on the lockscreen as well as on the homescreen.
I have tried removing the app and then the clock defaults back to the regular Android clock so that does not work.
Would it be possible to edit this package and add an additional (empy) clock layout or, a bit more dirty, just remove the graphical elements of one of the presets so it is still active but not visible in practice?
I tried extracting with APKTool and editing some files but my knowledge isnt good enough to do this so it would be great if someone could help with this.
I see the banner message saying "no noobs" so this topic might not be in the right place? Can someone move it? Sorry
Is there like a request part on the forum where you can request something like this? I would actually be happy to pay for an app that does this because it annoys me very much.
