What do you want it to be? The slider?
Some ROMs have an option to show the slider on a secure lockscreen. Can't remember if CM does.

Settings, (Personalization) Lock Screen, Screen Lock, put PIN in, choose Pattern. If you use an Exchange e-mail account this will be disabled due to Exchange policy.

If it's in the rom its usually in settings > Security and there should be an option, something like "show slider before secure unlock".

Maybe CM doesn't have an option. Not all ROMs have all features.

[Q] Landscape Dialer?

Anyone know of a way to get the Dialer/Contacts App to go into landscape mode. I use my Nexus S 4G in my car dock in ladscape mode frequently, and it's a PITA to dial sideways while driving.

Go to your contacts, then press menu, settings. Go to the bottom and you should see Enable sensor rotation in the misc section.

Thanks, but there is no "Settings" menu within the Contacts app on the Nexus S 4G. Maybe on the Nexus S though.

You need to press the menu button on your Nexus S first. Also valid in the dialer screen.
Sorry it's not settings however, but preferences.

Nope, it's not there. Looks like they left some code out of the 4G model.
system setting --> display --> auto-rotate

Thanks, but Auto-rotate has already been enabled in display settings, and it does not work in the dialer and contact apps. I've tried every ROM for the NS4G (except for CM7) and there seems to be no way to get the dialer into Landscape.
well... unfortunately there is nothing i can do about it ... wish you luck to find what you looking for
C.m. will do it on the dialer press menu

[Q] CyanogenMod 11 on Motorola Xoom

I have flashed CM 11 on my Xoom Everest. Unfortunately, lockscreen always in Landscape mode, couldn't be set to Potrait. I've tried search in Setting but there's none. Anyone please tell me how to fix this problem?
Thanks.
Did you check the Auto-Rotate in Accessibility under Settings?
Keep no change

Whether I check or not the Auto-rotate in Accessibility under Setting, it doesn't impact on lockscreen mode, always Landscape. Anything else I can do?
It must be a setting in Lockscreen options, I don´t remember exactely where coz now I use OmniRom...
No Option in Lockscreen

OPO stock custom lockscreen: how enable landscape on rotation? [FIXED!]

title says it all. i can't for the life of me find the setting to allow lockscreen rotation on my OPO. if i use my phone in my car, it's in landscape, and having a portrait oriented lockscreen just looks and feels silly.
okay, squirly squirts, i have it working.
if someone wants to make a quick script to just tap and go from here, just give me a thanks :good: and acknowledgement
it turns out that you need a stupid build.prop edit
go to /system
edit build.prop. you'll need an editor with root access and r/w privileges
add to the end of the file
Code:
log.tag.launcher_force_rotate=VERBOSE
lockscreen.rot_override=true
to the bottom.
save.
reboot.
there you go.:fingers-crossed:
I don't believe you can do it.

You can. Root, install Gravity Box and Xposed, enable it via Gravity Box. have mine lockscreen rotation working though.

That's not the lockscreen, that's a home screen. Mine does that too. I'm talking about the lockscreen. At least, I'm assuming it isn't the lockscreen, considering it looks like it has a dialer on it. It sure isn't the lockscreen on 11s.
Sorry, I'm talking specifically about the custom slider for the OPO, not a boring ring slider, lol

Thats actually is the lockscreen with PIN lock. Oh I think you are using the custom CM11s lockscreen so it cannot rotate I think. Try disable the custom lockscreen?

Lol, that's what I don't want to do. I want this lockscreen to rotate. That's the point of the thread
hell, i've even disabled the stupid custom lockscreen, hoping i could get the regular stock lockscreen to work in landscape. no such luck using gravity box with supersu (pro), using gravity box. wtf? what the emm effing eff? it's killing me, smalls

of course. using supersu for superuser access. it says it's on. never works. not once. not on the 'custom lockscreen' (which i prefer), nor without custom checked.
effing thing. i don't want to have to flash the thing from scratch, but i might this weekend, if nobody comes up with a solution that works.
in fact, using apex launcher, i can get homescreens to rotate, but not lock. using trebuchet, i can't even get homescreens to rotate, using exact same settings. effing ridiculous

Thats because the auto rotate is dependent on the launcher app. Trebuchet doesn't offer as much settings out of the box.
Lock screen does not allow landscape. Thats just how it is.

An easier solution is to download the set orientation app from Google play. It allows rotation in all screens including lock screen.

[Q] Cyanogen OS 12 lock screen?

So updated today and I don't like the looks of the new lock screen. It's totally transparent. Can anyone pull the lock screen of the CM12 NIGHTLIES to replace it?
Me too. Can't seem to change the default lock screen... Weird... Any solutions?

Go to 'settings'>'themes' and click on the spanner icon and scroll down, you should be able to set the lockscreen wallpaper.

Thanks. I did just that, but after I chose a new image it did not show on the lock screen. The default image
stays forever, no matter which image you choose. I guess it's some kind of bug... Or maybe I'm doing
something wrong?

Once you selected the image/photo did you hit back, then tap the 'tick' button to apply the change?

No worries, it confused me at first, think it could be simplified so that the tick button appears once you have made a change so you can confirm. It only appears once (if!) you hit back.

What about a live wallpaper?
Edit: I tried None, Pick Image and System... but none takes (or let me choose) my default "3D Parallax Wheather" wallpaper. CM12 Nightlies do this by default. I guessed System take the system wallpaper, but unfortunately it doesn't. Maybe it's a bug which needs to be fixed.

Anyone found a way to get the CM nightly lockscreen to replace the COS12 one?
I think I saw somebody write somewhere that the Lockscreen is in the SystemUI, but unfortunately these are not exchangable between CM12 and Cyanogen OS12, so someone has to modify the CM12 nightly one, to be compatible with Cyanogen OS12.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean, are you referring to magazine unlock where everytime the screen turns on it shows a different wallpaper?
