Hi xdadevelopers,
maybe my question is already answered anywhere here but i wasnt able to find anything related to it - so ill just ask
A few hours ago i updated my nexus 4 manually with the available OTA update to android 5.0 lollipop and found out that the lockscreen widgets were gone...
I was very used to using only one widget on my lockscreen but very frequently indeed. It was my flashlight...
So now of course i dont need a special flashlight app anymore but also im not able to activate the lollipop-onboard-flashlight from the lockscreen at all.
My question:
Is there already a workaround existing for that problem?
Ive found a lot of questions on the internet regarding the same fact but no actual solution. So maybe it is possible to work with the notifications (for example automatically pop up a notification with every "lock" that enables / disables the flashlight directly from the lockscreen) ?
I hope there is a solution for my problem already out there and i just wasnt able to find it yet :silly:
Found out by myself that one just hast to pull down the lockscreen to see a menu consisting the flashlight ....
:silly:

Hi,
I would have posted this in the Codename Android thread but since I'm a new user it seems I'm forced to clog up this forum. Sorry.
Anyway, I just upgraded from Codename Android 3.6.6 to 3.8.0. It's good but they seem to have removed one of the notification centre power widgets - there used to be two and now the one I was using isn't there any more. The other one does the job but isn't as customisable and the 2g/3g toggle doesn't seem to work.
So I was wondering if anyone could help me obtain an apk for the power widget, or alternatively recommend me one that is customisable and has a 2g/3g toggle that isn't just a settings shortcut.
Thanks in advance!
there are numerous applications that can be found in google play.
Did a 10 second search and found this, which seems really nice

Thanks, but I've actually tried that one before and it doesn't have a 3G toggle. I was kind of hoping someone would just whip out an apk from an older version...
Would it be possible for me to lift the feature from an older version of CNA, and install it on this? Or would I have to program something? I can't really do that...
I have been using liquidsmooth for a while now, but thought I'd give cyanogenmod a try. One of the main features missing is the lockscreen torch which I use surprisingly often. Does anyone know if there is an add-on or anything for this? Done some searching and can't find anything.
Also, does cyanogenmod support changing dpi well?

I'm not the right guy to discuss about CM roms but you can probably add this feature through a xposed module.
Custom DPI is always possible.
I've been trying to find an xposed module to do that, but havent managed. its pretty key for me. Love the way AOKP integrated it (liquidsmooth, etc).
Go to the Google Play Store and download an app called the "Nexus Flashlight", it supports a flashlight(torch) application and also has lockscreen support. Plus! It only works on Nexus devices and I think a few others. I assume you mean like a lockscreen widget right? If yes, this is your app. Turning it on and off from the lockscreen sometimes has a delay but it's only half a second. :good:
EDIT: And yes! Cyanogenmod supports changing DPI, at least as far as I'm aware. I'm able to do this on my Inspire 4G running Cyanogenmod11. I got a boot loop by messing with this before, so make sure you know what you're doing and make a nandroid backup for safety!
Gravity Box allows for torch toggle when you longpress the unlock ring, but it can have some issues with custom ROMs.
You could also get access to torch from the lockscreen by using the quicksettings toggle from the lockscreen.
1) Is there a way to lock or freeze the lockscreen widgets / scrolling once set? *
2) Can I disable the side swiping/sliding to open the camera ONLY above the camera icon? In other words, I want to be able to access the lock screen camera but only by swiping from the bottom where the camera icon is, not anywhere above it.
*This is really difficult for me to search and find because "how to lock lock screen" and "how to freeze lock screen" obviously come up with something I am not looking for. I want to be able to enable widgets on my lock screen but disable the ability to add more once I set the one I want. I don't want to be able to scroll to the big plus, but I want a widget so I don't want to just disable the feature. How can I do this?

I already realized this is most likely more of a possibility on a custom ROM, however, not only do I really enjoy my stock setup ATM, I don't feel like changing for two features (I will though).
That being said, there are tons of ROMs with tons of features. Do you know of any ROMs that have exactly what I am requesting (while still keeping the simple practical sleek look of stock)? I don't have the time to flash ROMs all day searching so I would greatly appreciate it if anyone who knows this information could share it with me.
And I do mean exactly. I don't want to flash a custom ROM just to get half the ability I'm requesting. Please let me know, thank you.
Hey guys,
I need help with my Quadro smartphone.
Recently I downloaded a lockscreen app which should supposedly also enable notifications on my lockscreen. It does not work, however. I don't remember specifically which app it was, but after that one didn't work I tried a couple of other ones and none of them worked. They all said I should give the app access to lockscreen notifications through the accessibility options. However, no apps appeared in my accessiblity options.
I'm guessing that the phone's manufacturer didn't include allowing apps to use some of the phone's features. BTW, I enabled WhatsApp popups on lockscreen today and when I received a message, the popup appeared but the background was fully black. The phone is rooted and i've tried many modules in Xposed Framework but none of them gave me any results regarding this. Is there any way to give the app access to the lockscreen in this scenario?
Note: I'd provide a screenshot of my accessibility options, but since this is my first post, I am unable to do so. Well, it won't help a lot anyway
Thanks in advance, Topaz17

Hi, thank you for using XDA assist.
There is a general forum for android here http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help where you can get better help and support if you try to ask over there.
Good luck.
Hi everyone
I have a few questions and I have been searching for them on here but couldn't find the answer.
I have a rooted s8, with renovate 7.2 on it and magisk istalled.
I have also installed the framework.
I wanted to customise the AOD(Always On Display) and was wondering what is out there that can help me achieve that.
For example there's an app called Custom AOD, it allows you to get some background pictures but it's limited. I was wondering if I could add some widgets to it? I'd like to have a toggle button that allows me to turn the torch on/off, is this mod available?
Is there a compass widget for the AOD?
If anyone can provide links on all the AOD mods/widget that would be great?
Do you guys know what's the best place to get free substratum themes? playstore has a very limited number.
Thanks in advance.
Wings by timmods is really good and you can find it here on XDA, my favourite actually
