Hi there,
My 160h unlock time will finally be over tomorrow and I will be able to root.
I would like to replace the default Xiaomi Clock and the default Xiaomi Agenda by the ones from google easily downloadable on Google Play, how can I do that ?
Removing the default Clock and Agenda is not a problem, I will probably find a way with Magisk or another tool (Titanium Backup), but how make sure that the new apps from Google will be recognized as default ?
Because right now, after having installed the Google Clock for example, when I set an alarm, I don't get any "alarm clock" icon in the status bar, unlike the default clock that comes with MIUI 12.
Thank you!
Well. after a few researches, I found that I could easily replace the
/system/app/DeskClock/DeskClock.apk
By the ones I want to modify it.
So I went to : https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=clock
To find some clocks, download them, rename them "DeskClock.apk".
I replaced my system clock by the OnePlus clock, then reboot : No luck, it does not even open the app, just an error appearing.
Then, I replaced it by the last version of Google clock, reboot : Working ! The clock is opening normally... but when I set an alarm, it still does not trigger the "alarm" icon in the status bar
So I reversed back to MiUi clock for now...
hey man

Righty lets just get straight to the point..
I have a HTC touch 2, everything working fine, i have the windows default today screen not touchflo...
I installed cHome editor to change and delete some the panels. there was a option to add a weather panel.. i have had it since..
UNTIL.. i recently updated the ROM and lost everything of course.. installing what i need back on the phone and this time i have no option for weather in cHome editor.
I don't want an alternative weather plugin i want what back what i had, but no idea how to get it back, so i need your help!
The weather plugin was very simple when i first installed it you tap once enter your town and thats it it will update everytime you tap the weater panel you can scroll left and right for 5 day weather.. with pictures low and high temp ect..
its similar to titanium weather but titanium weather operates differently and displays more information..
if you could help me get my old weather panel back, i would be most thankful!
Thanks!
can anyone help???
I hope I'm just doing something stupid ...
I can't add most widgets I've downloaded to my lock screen on my Nexus 5 ... though they all work fine adding to my home screen. Only a few (like Android Weather) are available when hit the "plus" on a blank lockscreen.
All I want is a brightness widget that can make the display bright so I can properly put in my password in bright sunlight (I never set my brightness to auto, it's too annoying for me).
ie. Power Widget lite would be perfect for my needs!
Any one having the same problem? Any ideas?
I have the same problem. Wanted to add some beautiful clock widget to homescreen (don't remember exactly which one), downloaded, installed, went to add to homescreen - no luck.
Why can't you get something like power toggles. Then you could pull down notification bar on lockscreen and toggle brightness to what you wanted. An extra step I know

I can add everything I've downloaded add to homescreen. But almost none can be added to my lockscreens. That's my problem.

Very cool app, thanks for pointing it out. But ... I can't pull down the notification bar when the phone is locked ... how are you able to?
you add widgets on your lockscreen by enabling them in security. there's a checkbox that says "enable widgets"

Yep, did that. The thing is only SOME can be added. Very few that I've downloaded (even though they all seem to work on home screens).

Wow AWESOME app! That's exactly what I need! I was looking for a bunch of widgets on one row, which the lockscreen doesn't even seem to allow, but this widget already let me configure everything I needed in one row of buttons.
It turns out that THIS widget CAN be placed on the lockscreen (I'm not talking about the one visible in the notification bar, I can only access that when the phone's already unlocked).
BUT ... I still want to know why most widgets can't get placed on the lockscreen to begin with. Are they not Android 4.4-lockscreen-compatible yet?

The widgets have to be enabled to work on the lock screen by the developer.

Aha! Didn't expect that widgets needed special lock screen support.
So there's home screen widgets, lock screen widgets, notification bar widgets, ... I wonder what other classes of apps I'm missing - widget widgets? It would be nice if Google Play Store could search based on widget class.
Hello, I tried posting this in the question section but I for some reason had insufficient access.
I've just installed Cyanogenmod 11 (Nightly Build) from my carbon ROM and I've installed Go Launcher Ex. Unfortunately, It requires a million other apps and it's making me want to throw my phone at the wall.
I am using the default lockscreen that the GoLocker comes with as I find all the other ones on the store absolutely awful looking and terribly made however, on the default launcher you swipe right and it brings up a page where you can change the settings of the theme, wallpaper, security, weather, settings and a clean option. Then underneath that part there is a load of app icons there and I have no way of changing which apps are there at all!! Sometimes I unlock my screen and there are 3 apps there, then when I go back to it afterwards, it's completely filled up!?!? They're really frustrating me!! If you take a look at the attachment I have, it's just a picture of what I'm talking about as I'm unable to post links or images.
The other thing that Is really bothering me is the icons such as the Themes, wallpaper, security, weather, settings and clean. They all serve not really much purpose apart from the weather one which I installed ANOTHER Go Launcher app and bought it which is a weather app and when I tap the weather icon, It just takes me to the stupid settings page for the weather options?!?!?
SO FRUSTRATING!! Any help would be saving me SO MUCH!
I couldnt find the next options:
- Spotify Lockscreen background (album picture)
- Lockscreen Background - Live Weather - should have option for set up the downloadable number of pictures per day
- Unlocked/Not mobile carried ROM has no automatic ABC list in menu and you have only manual "edit" option
...or "user error"?
With the ABC menu, I assume you mean the app menu in the touchwizz launcher? If so, the only way I've found so far is to root your phone and then modify a CSC file. The easiest way for that is to download the CSC modifier app my wanam from Play store (after rooting) and search for "alphabet", find the appropriate setting, and set it to "TRUE", and reboot. But like I said, it involves rooting, and all the associated risks of doing so.
For the others you mention, I have no advice I'm afraid.
Thanks for the advice!
Yes, I mean app menu in the TW launcher. But its not such an important setting to modify and root my phone. Anyway, I would appreciate a future update from Samsung.
I liked the fullscreen album art on the lockscreen when I had kitkat on the S4, when it went to lollipop it stopped doing it. I don't know if it's possible to enable it again or if it's a lollipop screw up.
I'm sure if we made enough of a fuss about it, they'll put some of these features back :3 there's no logical reason I can think of to remove a simple "Sort" button.
If you aren't too bothered about TW only widgets (like the weather clock), you could always use another home launcher app. Google Launcher and Nova are both quite good. Google Launcher is nice and simple, and Nova is customisable to the extreme.
I'm currently in the process of organising my folders and home screen layout of Nova should have installed that first, as I now have loads of apps to organise u.u damn....
Hi,
I have a 920F with XtreStoLite 2.4 rom and Hacker v7 kernel, and I have some problems:
1. Is there a way to turn off the "Connected to Wi Fi network ..." toast? - when a call wakes up the phone the toast is on top of the answer/reject buttons for a few moments. I fount some tutorials on Xda but the files don't match.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449683 (i don't have SecSettings.apk)
2. On my old S3 with cm11 displayed one line under the clock widget for upcoming calendar events (birthdays especially). Is there something similar to that, something simple not a full page like the Google calendar widget?
3. Is there a way to make a shortcut for the alarm (Google clock app) on the home screen?
Thank you!

The other 2 im not sure but is there not an alarm widget that u could use?
The widget works with samsungs alarm clock ( that app doesn't have a lot of options ).
