Does anybody know how to remove the stock sense widget on the lockscreen? I can put my own widgets on other pages but I can't remove the stock sense widget on the main page. Frustrating. Does anybody know how to do this? Or is it possible? I want to use dash clock.
I am curious about this as well and have not been able to find any info about altering the lock screen widget as stated above.
same here. Would like to get that nonsense off my lockscreen
I saw a post in another thread with a screenshot of a very clean lock screen, I have not found it yet though.

If you find it let us know. It might have been for a custom ROM, since the lock screen on stock in blinkfeed based I would assume flashing a ROM and not running blinkfeed would allow the us to change this BUT ideally I want to stay stock (with s-off/root) if I can, so here's hoping something can be worked out.

I found the one I was referring to, installing and testing now. It appears very clean... =)

You should be aware that to use SlideLock you'll need to go to Settings > Security > No Lock Screen, or you'll slide your LS and then the Sense one is right underneath. Also, music controls don't work with SlideLock at this time.

I downloaded this and tried it too and the first thing I did notice was that it was just running over the default lock screen which is what I was hoping to avoid by just altering the default one to suite my needs. It is clean and simple though and I cant imagine it causing too much slow down, a lot of the options are locked though for a pro version that costs $2.73.

Unfortunately I cannot set that due to outlook group policy at my firm. However, after the first two times or so the original lock screen that was behind slide lock is now gone, which is great and unexpected. I will go to the official thread and look for this answer now but how can I disable wifi notifications on the lock screen? I blacklisted "system" and only allow a few apps but this continues to pop up, sometimes more than a handful at at a time.

the system checkbox is only whether you can edit whether or not you can see system apps in the view. Turn that checkbox on and select uncheck all then turn on what you need.

I've attached two screenshots, the first is an example of the annoying / unnecessary notification about my network, the second are the apps I have enabled. Any suggestions?

Click the system apps checkbox back on. Click the menu again and uncheck all. Click system apps checkbox off and then pick the apps you want to see notifications for again. I had the same problem

Testing now, I forgot to mention I had "Android" black listed in advanced settings. Thanks for the suggestion, I will report back.
Edit: I have not seen my wifi network pop up since, thanks man.

I updated to lolipop, rooted and unlocked BL and some things are missing, most notably the nvidia power control. Pretty sure my tab is stuck in low performance/battery saving mode and the settings page to go to performance or whatever is no longer present.
So I was wondering if there was a place I can get the apps, or if any rooted users can pull them off theirs and share them.
I have the 16gb wifi.

Did you hard reset after updating?
Need to ftr.
Also, menu has changed on L5, add a settings widget to your home screen for power saving, there is soc menu.

I have only done normal reboots since updating, it did not freeze or restart during the update if thats what you meant.
I don't know what the issue is, but lots of apps broke across the update. Things like facebook give me -506 error not installing but the apk is still in /data/app.

I've heard FB has some kind of issue that some recommend to uninstall for time being.
I mean a hard reset, not a reboot. Go into settings, back up & reset, wipe all. You will lose everything, back up what you want save.
Always a good idea to wipe when doing a large update such as L5, and especially L5.

So no one is willing to share I take it...

Power Control is hidden on Lollipop.
Go to Home Screen and add a witget for settings, then select Power Saving for the option. That should bring you the original Shield Power Control.
Here is an app that allows you to hold your back button to kill the currently open application.
If popularity is high enough, I will update it with things like whitelist etc.
If you use a Samsung device, the only problem is that you can't show the MultiWindow bar anymore. I will work on a fix for it. I only made this because xposed doesn't work on Samsung Lollipop yet so this is what I wanted until it is. Once it works, I prolly won't ever touch this app again.
Thanks everyone!
UPDATE:
- Performance improvement
useful, thanks for this!!!!
Great job! I've been missing this feature since I switched to Lollipop. Thanks!
hi,
It seems to be working on CM12 but a little too good
Apps get killed right away when i press "back"whatever time-out i set in the settings.

Hello, CM12 with standard navbar (3 buttons) doesn't have that setting. It s only implmented in roms with navbars with extra settings like opening an app etc etc
Having Trouble
I'm having a similar problem where even a single tap on the back button is closing the app. I have a rooted Galaxy S4 running Android 4.4

So this is happening when using the navbar and not the physical buttons?
It seems like the up action isn't being triggered. I could try to implement maybe a double click back to kill option. Ill try to debug on my 5.0 emulator that uses the navbar and see if i can figure anything out. Weird how that's happening.

hello again,
No, i dont use the navbar In cm12 (disabled) I use hardware buttons. If ndg1988 uses stock then he doesn't have a navbar so i guess he uses the hardware buttons too

Hm, I truly don't know then. I really would need the device in hand to test with. I could try to do testing by sending you a file with loads of debug information in it. Would you mind that?
Good News

I was just an idiot that assumed the activation time was in units of seconds, not milliseconds. This may be what most people are having trouble with. It works well now, so thank you and keep up the good work.

no, but it will take a while. i need to test multirom on my device and i have have to finish the translation of an app first.

Awesome - best thing that can happen to a rooted stock rom.
btw its labled "Main Activity" in App Drawer, not "Hold Back To Kill"

Yup. Realized that after releasing and didn't care too much about it. In the next update (if ever one would exist) i'll fix it.

That is why I asked. I have it set to milliseconds because I have mine set to a value of 200 milliseconds

I just bought the mentioned phone and I'm experiencing some weird problems on it. For example, I disabled most of the google apps by going to the App menu > Edit and disabled them by pressing the "minus" on the icon. Now if I want to re-enable them in Settings > Applications by going to the Disabled Apps section, pressing Enable and it gives me the option to DISABLE it again? WTF? Seems like I can't enable any app I disabled now..
The second thing is, it's more of a question really.. If I long press the home button, it only makes a short vibration and does nothing at all, is that normal or should something pop-up?
I mean really!? Ok, when you've pressed the enable toogle and the toggle becomes "disable" it means the app is already enabled and it gives you the option to disable it again.
Long press of the home button brings you to google now app, you must have disabled it.

I don't understand the bold text I quoted from you.. What do you mean? I clearly stated that I've disabled an app, and if I press to enable it, it offers me to disable it.. which is, already disabled?!?!?
Sorry for the misunderstanding but I don't get it how could I disable a already disabled app?!?

I mean when the button has the word "disable" on it. It means it's already running and app is ready for use.. Vice versa, if it has the word "enable" on the button.

I have DISABLED an app, therefore the app is DISABLED. If I want to enable it, the button there clearly says "Enable" but when I try to do that, I get a pop up as I was trying to disable it, which it already is.. Why don't you get it? xD

Ohh I get it now, if you've disabled it and the app is already updated, and you're trying to enable it again. Just click the pop up to disable it again, it just wants you to uninstall the updates and it reverts back to the apps factory version, and press the enable toggle again, the app will be enabled. You just have to reupdate the app again. In the touchwiz home you can directly disable an app but in the applications manager when you try to disable apps you have to uninstall the updates. Since disabling through the home launcher is just a shortcut.
Just touchwiz things.

It's normal, if you're not rooted. It's not really a bug, it's just a feature of touchwiz. My stock S5 and S4 has this, too.

Oh okay then.. I thought I got some faulty phone Any news on when is the ram management fix coming? Seems like my ram is staying at 80-90% at all times.. even when I'm not running any apps..
Also, do you recommend disabling the apps you don't use? For example I have disabled most of the google apps on there, since I'm not prone to use them..
I updated gravity box and installed Android N ify, after that I couldn't use my soft keys. I uninstalled both apps but nothing happened. I am using the latest ROM with ElementalX.

That's why you should always take a backup before you do/try things that can affect your operating system.
A possible solution is to uninstall xposed framework with the flashable uninstaller zip and dirty flashing the ROM you are running. Its possibly a setting you accedently enabled without knowing what you we're doing.

You're first post was on the 24th and you post again today. Have you really been going 5 days without softkeys?
First off, when you say you couldn't use your softkeys, are you saying they are visually their and tapping them does nothing. Or are they gone completely? GravityBox is the only module out of those two that can hide or even disable the softkeys. Did you turn them off in the app under the navigation bar options? There is also an expanded desktop mode in the "display tweaks."
Simply installing gravity box and N-ify shouldn't disable your softkeys as long as you are using everything right.

It was a backup device, I don't know what I did. I uninstalled both apps and still had this issue. And expanded desktop was of when I did it, it appeared that it just didn't simply load.
