Morning all,
Is there a way to get app icons on the lock screen such as short cuts for Facebook instagram etc.. Have had a look in the settings but can't find anything also using nova launcher but don't see anything in there either any help would be great. Thanks
There are lots of lockscreen apps on the Play Store that do this. Like this one for example...

Or I think one's like this might just add it your current lockscreen too.

There is a new launcher in the market right now that im using it works great.it called launcherpro.
I would install "home switcher"also in the market. That way while you are setting up your new layout you can go back and fourth. Without being interrupted by that a default prompt.
Launcher pro has single tap of home button that brings up the leap view, and it also has pinch to leap. With added gesture of dialer, contacts, internet, and messages at the bottom of every page.
Also it has a app launcher similar to the N1. Without the 3d cube effect.
Very responsive worth a try, only downfall is none of the htc widgets work while using this launcher. Bc their widgets are tired in to it.
I use the flip clock from the market, its customizable.and dolphin hd with their bookmarks widget and the friendstream app , that way it still has a sense feel to it.
UPDATE: Dev updated the home button to have the option of going to default screen or to the leap view. Also has auto rotation wich is something sense does not allow.

Its definitely intetesting, I just don't know how long I could deal with missing things like the friendstream widget.
That being said, I really like the app drawer. Its very awesome!

Exactly! Gotta have the sense widgets. I use for HelixLauncher 2 for about 5min then I have to switch back to sense.
You can pull from your app drawer the friendstream app, that's really all I miss, the sense widgets look great but are too big for my liking. If you use beautiful widgets from their clock you can set shortcuts to, calender, clock alarm, and weather.

i downloaded launcherpro. i only have 3 screens, unlink with sense when i have like 5 or something. also i have no idea what this app drawer, maybe its the menu button thing that opens all your apps, but if it is its the same thing as sense except cool animation.
also side note, im using chompsms widget, i saw some pics of someone using it and it had pic of the person in the widget, do i need to donate to get that or what?
It has three by default. Hit the menu button then preferences you can have up to seven screens.

Found it, downloaded it, used it, deleted it.
If I diddnt have sense, I'd be all over this. But for me, it just seems a little redundant. I personally, prefer the real thing.

Facebook Lockscreen for Android Device
How to get the Latest Facebook Lockscreen Without Home Feature for Android Device Which is Not Listed Under Select Devices. is there any Modded Apk of this version..?
Is it possible to change a app icon on the lockscreen to a widget?
more importantly the wifi hotspot settings button.
I think if you include it on the bottom of the 4 places that HTC uses, they should appear on the lockscreen

The lockscreen only shows what app icons are currently in your dock, and since you can't put widgets in your your dock it won't work.
Try widgetlocker app if its something you really need. It's a paid app but worth it, lots of cool options.

Use WidgetLocker from Play market. It might have that feature.
Right now I'm using Notification Toggle from the Play store.. and there are several other apps that do the same thing.. Lets you put many different settings in your notification pull-down which you can access from lock screen
Hi,
I'm pretty new to android, but after some searching I can't find this application.
I am after an app which will change my lockscreen image after "x" minutes. I have the "Wallpaper Changer" app which works well for the wallpaper, but it doesn't affect the lockscreen.
What app's can anyone recommend? is "LockerPro Lockscreen" worth a try?
Thanks
You can use: "go locker ex" . Multiple background for everything you want. I can also recommend "Go launcher EX", which is an app where you can download multiple themes for your app, like IOs, glass, maya and uncoutable others (btw automaticly changing pictures or moving backgrounds will drown your battery VERY fast, just sayin

There are so many apps in play store but Go locker is best safe and trustworthy.
Go locker, smooth and customizable

Ok Thanks I'll try GoLocker.
You mentioned auto changing lock screen images drain battery. My plan is for just 2 or 3 changes per day. Would that affect the battery much?
Go Locker and Lock Screen Pro don't seem to have the option for time lock screen image changes. Am I missing something?
Ok so I've got Go locker and Lock screen pro but none seem to have the option for time lock screen image changes. Am I missing something?
I have gone into security settings and enabled lock screen widgets. This allows me to add DashClock widget to the lockscreen, however, I am unable to remove the default weather/clock widget from the lock screen. "Remove" is greyed out and the only option when you grab it is to "edit" it. DashClock works fine and I can remove it like normal.
This wouldn't be too big of a deal but it won't let me move the default to a different screen, its locked to page one so to get to DashClock I have to swipe.. Well, if I have to swipe its pretty pointless to have lockscreen widgets, I can just swipe to unlock the phone and have my widget on my homescreen.
I was able to take some screenshots to demonstrate what I'm talking about - I'm "new" so I can't post the link but try this: imgur.com/a/oCfVt
I was unable to find a way myself. I've been using this lock screen app instead https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slidelock
Really nice. Lots off features.

subbed for answer
Has anyone found a solution to this?
Only way to do is ..
The only way to hide/disable the stock HTC weather/clock widget is if you have rooted devices with installed Xposed Framework. There is a module called "Sense 6 Lockscreen Modes" where you have an option to remove/hide the widget, in that way being able to have any other widget on your main lockscreen !
I researched about this a lot, and the most covenantway to disable/hide the widget was to apply this module, plus you can have it back any time you want, just by disabling that module!
