Sorry if its been asked before but I accidentally changed my lockscreen on my honor 8. I can't go back to using magazine unlock for some reason. I've tried changing the themes and display setting but no luck. Somehow I've even accidentally got rid of my magazine unlock pictures in the gallery.
Tl;dr I have two questions
1. How do i re-enable magazine unlock on EMUI 4.1?
2. Can someone check where the photos for magazine unlock in the gallery are located so I can figure out how to get it back? (Press the i icon on the top right when viewing in gallery.)
My problem is the opposite of this. I want to get rid of this
In settings>Lockscreens I cannot untick the checkbox next to magazine. I have already unsubscribed from services and deleted all the pics.
I still have a screen to unlock before I unlock the phone with a patter or password.
In order to remove the changing lockscreens, u just have to set another one out of for example the gallery app...
Or you can just pause at one Wallpaper, by swiping up in the lockscreen and press the pause button.
To get rid of the magazine unlock, you have to go with the Designs App.
There you can edit the current theme.
The Magazine Wallpapers are located in /sdcard/MagazineUnlock

I've been running CM12 for a while now and the only thing I dislike about Lolipop is the lock screen. I really miss widgets and apps on my lock screen. I installed C Locker (Pro) which I had used on a different phone running KK and it works much better now on Lolipop. It is very customizable, I am using transparent clock/weather widget, calendar widget (Scrollable) and a number of app shortcuts. The only gotcha was I had to delete the Android guest account otherwise when I would unlock it would go to the Lolipop lock screen. You can setup up a lot of gesture actions, and click on the lock button turns the phone back off. Mine is probably gaudy and way too colorful for most but that's how I like it

I couldn't remember exactly so I went through it again
1- Switch user to the guest user in settings (have to go through initial setup for the guest user, I skipped everything I could in the setup process)
2- then go to back into the users in settings
3- instead of choosing your main user account to switch back to, select "remove Guest"
At this point, it switched me back to my original user, but the touch screen is not responsive
Pull battery and replace
once rebooted, go into C Locker, turn it off and then back on.
Then everything works fine.
The guest user will still show up in users, I guess it recreates it.
Hope this helps...

Thanks a lot for your quick reply but i found another way to disable it In Clocker ->Security->turn off default lock screen.. and you are done with it. But in this case you will miss out those beautiful floating notifications on lock screen.

that's weird, in samsung devices, you can set default lockscreen to 'none' and keep fingerprint active.
I had it working on my s7 edge with your original clocker app. I'm not sure about the light version I will try it on my s7 edge later today. The nexus however will not because it will auto delete the prints whenever the screen is set to none.
I really love this lite version, but why do I have to write my pin when I click the widget music? Is there a way that i can play the music without unlock it? Oh and is it possible to add more info on the notifications? What I mean is when I tick no show content can show like '4 messages in 3 chats' like in stock lockscreen. Hope you can read my suggestion, great job :good:
the widget click works together with the PIN you set, i will consider making it an option to set without PIN when clicking widget.

I used the c locker free but it was very slow on start up of my device.
It took more then half a minute to lock the screen.
I switched to the lite version hoping this would faster and it seems to be.
But when I start up my device it doesn't lock and i get a toast saying "auto unlock as system lock is enabled".
In settings my lockscreen option is set to none.
I'm on an Asus Zenfone 2 laser (Z00ED) with stock firmware.

Done. Thank you for the help.
FYI: I Had an other issue.
I just updated my phone and let google restore all my apps, including C Locker Lite. After that i did a reboot, but i forgot to turn off the android lockscreen. When the phone started I saw the C Locker loading screen and then a blank / black screen. without any way to unlock. I could pull down the quick toggles, but nothing else. I waited for about 5 minutes, but still nothing.
Also i didn't wipe my SD, but did wipe data and system.
I restarted again, but the same thing happened.
I went into TWRP and deleted the app from data/app/ with the file manager and restarted. everything worked again.
It's not a problem for me anymore, but it might be for people doing a factory reset without any custom recovery.
good app!
Hey all. Gosh I feel like an idiot for posting but cant for the life of me figure this super basic thing out.
Im on a S7 Edge, using Nova Launcher, and the Goodluck UI. Wanted to mention all that as I think that is why Im having so much trouble. No matter what app, or setting on the phone, it makes the wallpaper the same for both the lock scree and desktop. Can someone tell me what steps work with the configuration I have
Thanks!
Usually you would use the wallpaper setting in Android itself and tell it to set the Homescreen/Lock screen separately using the dropdown at the top of the wallpaper choice screen, but iirc, Good lock has its own wallpaper setting, I don't use it so not sure where it is, but I'd have a look in Good lock settings to start
You can set the home screen however you want, but the lock screen has to be done a specific way. Go into the stock Gallery app, find the pic you want to use then hit "More" in the upper right corner. Then "Set as wallpaper" and choose which you want to set it for, home screen, lock screen, or both.
It's annoying to have to use the Gallery app as it has no way to filter out unwanted folders like all my music folders with album art, but it is the only way I've found so far to set different lock screen and home screen wallpapers.
Are there settings for the following features?
1. To turn off the message on the home screen that says "swipe up or down to show apps".
2. Turn off the Wallpaper for the Always On display?

The swipe message disappears after you use the gesture to both open and close the app drawer.
As far as I can tell, that wallpaper is unchangable.
I already post this in another thread...
The blue text on the lock screen.
You have to double tap on it then tap the next button in the bottom right.
Keep pressing next until it turns into ok.
Once done it wont come back on.
And you can go into the aod settings and change the background and style of the lock screen.
You can definitely change the wallpaper for AOD, in the themes section. I've seen a select few other wallpapers for it, keep in mind the theme store has more paid ones than free.

I have opened and closed the app drawer over and over with this gesture and yet every single time i unlock my phone, i get this message. Are we sure thats the solution? I've even restarted my device and did a restore on it as well and i still get this message. It is absolutely mind boggling that there is no way to actually disable tooltips like this one.
EDIT: Ask and ye shall receive! So, no sooner than i posted this did i look and my phone was downloading an update. After the update this annoying message is GONE! Whats funny is the first thing i did after getting home with the new device this morning was to check for software updates and there wasnt one.
I've been using WidgetLocker from TeslaCoil Software for years. They sadly have stopped working on it and removed it from the play market. So, I decided to figure out how to show my home screen BEFORE unlocking my phone.
It was actually pretty easy. I think you have to be rooted because you have to change application settings.
1) Download an application settings app
I used the Applications Settings app from Xposed, others might work. You have to be able to let apps show while locked. (Also convenient for note taking on the go).
2) Use said app settings app to change the settings for your Home screen app and let it show while locked.
This lets you get to your home screen by pressing softkeys IF it was that last app you were in. Otherwise it forces you to unlock and then goes to the last used app. Not what we want.
3) Install some kind of lockscreen app that lets you put Shortcuts on the lockscreen. I'm using WidgetUnlocker, I lost it in phone wipe without knowing that it was not in the market and downloaded it elsewhere. I had already paid for it and the developer directly told me that they are not working on it anymore in favor of NovaLauncher. I think that there are other lock screen apps that will let you add shortcuts to shortcuts.
3) In said app, make a shortcut that points to Activities -> (YourHomeScreenAppName/Launcher) -> com.android.launcher2.Launcher
TADA! You can now access your home screen before drawing your pattern or pin by using the shortcut you created. You can interact with folders and widgets on your home screen. However, your pattern unlock will appear whenever you try to click on anything that would switch to another app. I've played with this quite extensively and have only one way to get past the pattern; but, it only lets me change the settings with WidgetLocker. .. So, someone could say, add a email / txt / etc widget to WidgetLocker that would let them scroll through you emails or txts etc. However, they would NOT be able to click and access the whole message. (That requires switching to another app besides your Homescreen/Launcher and hence your pattern lock will pop up.)
NOTE: I am not sure exactly how this will work with other lockscreen apps. I'm guessing that it will work with any app that still lets you use your devices pattern or pin lock. I'm not sure about the ones that make you use their app for a pattern etc lock.
