Lockscreen in HC - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wasn't sure where to post this. I got HC installed on my rooted view. I was wondering if there is any way to modify the lock screen such as changing the lockscreen wallpaper or changing the shortcuts that are shown on the lockscreen. I have looked in the settings but didn't see anything.

Change Lockscreen Shortcuts

Is there a way to change the shortcuts on the HTC lockscreen. I have looked but cannot seem to find a way
Yes, the lockscreen shortcuts can be changed. The lockscreen shortcuts are the same icons that are in the HTC Sense dock. Change the icons in the Sense dock, then the icons on the lock screen will change.

^^^^^ This ^^^^^
Thanks Matt. That's rather annoying... only four total? Would be nice to be able to put a few more on that screen...
possible to do this without sense launcher?
So I flashed the UKB rom and I only have nova launcher, I'm assuming the config for the shorts cuts is sitting in some file somewhere? Can I still change my launch screen shortcuts without the sense launcher or do I have to reflash the rom? Sorry if the answer is posted somewhere, I searched around and didn't find anything for this particular situation.
I remember using this with my inc 2 .

Sounds like that might work I'll give it a try tonight and see. Thanks!
No dice, there's gotta be a configuration somewhere. I'll keep digging, if someone else comes up with another idea let me know, thanks!

I useapex launcher. I imagine its similar to nova. go to your advanced settings in launcher. and switch to sense as default launcher. change icons, switch back to your launcher.
Ya I tried that but I only have nova launcher as an option, thanks though!
i see. you must have removed sense through aroma.
dirty flash the rom, and don't de-sense.
then you can change your shortcut icons in sense and switch back to your 3rd party launcher.
Ya that's the process I was saving for a last resort, thanks!

still unable to change lock screen shortcuts
So I just clean flashed ukb 1.1, this time I left Rosie installed. I've tried changing my shortcuts in the dock multiple times and it still has no effect on the lock screen short cuts.
Are you changing them on Rosie or on Nova?
I'm changing them on Rosie

[Q] How to change to custom Lockscreen wallpaper?

Nevermind, I'm an idiot, expected to see these settings in the Lockscreen menu but they were in the Display.
Settings
Display
Wallpaper
Lock screen
Choose your image
Is anyone else having issues with this? I've tried changing my lockscreen wallpaper to several different images from my gallery but it always stays the stock one.
Edit: Found the fix. I had to clear the application defaults for QuickPic im pretty sure you have to use the stock Gallery app to crop your Lock screen wallpaper

Looking for a Lockscreen app

Hey so I'm using SGS3 I9300, currently running Omega v42.
I'm looking for a Screen Lock app that has a PATTERN lock. So far I downloaded like 15 different apps, some of them doesn't support pattern at all, the others just show stock lockscreen after the app lockscreen, making it kind of stupid.
I'm mostly looking for a lockscreen that has a pattern lock and an option to show widgets. Best will be if there's an option to add different pages to the lockscreen (like CM10 style, where each page is a whole widget and can drag the pattern lock from the button).
Thanks in advance!

[Q] auto change the lockscreen wallpaper?

I have been searching around for a way to automatically change the lockscreen wallpaper. I have Samsung Galaxy S4. It has a lockscreen wallpaper called "travel wallpaper" which does this but has major limitations (can't select the images myself, uses mobile data). I ahve tried other wallpaper changer apps / live wallpapers, but they only change the homescreen wallpaper not the lockscreen.
I do have WidgetLocker and added some widget that did the trick... but I am trying to go back to the stock lockscreen since WidgetLocker hasn't been reliable for me (it only works sometimes, others the stock lockscreen shows up. Also WidgetLocker doesn't have media controls.

Unable to change lockscreen wallpaper

I'm wondering if there is an app I froze that has to do with lockscreen wallpaper. When I change it the toast message comes up and say wallpaper changed successful but it stays the same. Any pointers would be appreciated.
I had the same thing happen.
