[Q] About lockscreen - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

On the S3's lockscreen, is there any way to access apps from it even with a passcode, similar to sense 4.0.
(Or at least access the camera)

-4 onscreen shortcut
-4 vocal shortcut
-a special way to go to the camera software from the lockscreen
Hope it will give you an answer...

In one of the reviews on Youtube If I remember correctly the guy changed one of the shortcuts. So yes its possible.

A friend on an Italian forum just showed me how to do it:
go to to Settings --> Security --> Lockscreen Options --> Shortcuts!
Turn them off then on again and you can edit them!

Try Agile Lock and you will know what i mean:laugh: And if you are a S2 user but jelous of your friend's S3 , u will got my mind :highfive:
Coz Agile Lock is a App lockscreen that works with launchers and not a system lockscreen. Thus it is possible to make a water ripple effect lockscreen like S3 Hope Devs can help :victory:

lock screen
in the agile lock you only get htc sence lock screen but in widget locker you get almost all the lock screen so i edited widget locker and remove htc sense and honey comb lock screen icon and in widget locker. live wallpaper is also applied tolock screen so you get ripple effect. its look like s3 lock screen but in real you only can unlock in one direction
if anyone need application them pm me ....

Are you particularly enamoured with the default Home/Launcher app? There are a lot of alternatives and, in my opinion, many of them are better such as Nova, ADW, Apex, Go
All of these let you pick how many home screens you want as well as many other customisations

[request] app to hide statusbar

Anyone Know any app to lock/hide the status bar?
Download Nova Prime (or many other home screen replacement apps). It allows you to hide the status bar. You swipe down to open it. You can even double tap to tgggle it open and closed.
This is just one of the many features of course. Another great one is that it can import the look of the launcher you are now using.
You can do it with holo launcher - under settings then gestures and select a gesture to toggle status bar
You might need the pro version though
You mean like JellyBean?

[MOD]V4 TW Launcher 4x5 home,4x5 app MDK,ME7,WPscroll (updated 8.7.13)vrtheme

This mod will give your Tw launcher a 4x5 homescreen, and a 4x5 app drawer. The widgets should stay looking right with this, it took a while to get the stock weather widget to play nice with this mod. Instead of replacing the whole seclauncher3.apk like most do I am going to do this with the vrtheme engine to only change the files needed. Doing it this way should allow it to work on deodex and odex roms. I can only test on deodex right now and it works perfectly. I will need someone to make a backup and try it on stock odex to see if it works correctly. I can send you a flashable to fix the odex launcher if it breaks it, I just dont wanna change roms to try myself. Just flash the file in recovery and reboot.
-update- I added a V2 of this it moves stuff just a little bit here and there to get all to fit better and get all the widgets to show right. Making all the other widgets work right makes a small black line around the accuweather widget. Im adding another zip that will remove this line from the widget, it will still have a small shadow line at the bottom but for now its the best solution and looks much better than the first version of this.
-update- I added a V4 fast version it has some speed tweaks added it makes the pages flip much faster than stock.
-update- I added a ME7 version that is actually built from the updated launcher should solve any problems anyone had using this on the new build.
-update- I added two new ones one mdk, and one me7 with wallpaper scrolling enabled. They both have the fast page flip included. Just pick the one for you base of rom your on.
-update- I added two new 4x4 stock layout, with fast page flip and scrolling wallpaper
reserved....
Working good so far on stock odex. The only problem I see is that the page indicators overlap icons on the bottom of the screen.

Post a screen shot if you can so I can see how much they need moved. Most people move them all the way to the bottom, but I like them to break up the dock and bottom row. Mine don't cover on icons but do on a couple widgets I'll see what I can do

Version 2 up in the OP, it fixes the calendar widget and makes a little more room for the icons at bottom. Everything looks good on my setup, let me know if you find anything else that needs adjusted. V2 makes a little line around the weather widget if you use it i made a zip to remove the line from the widget for now.
V2 looks perfect! Thank you.

It's basically hooking onto the clock. Here's mine on the Nexus 5.
It would be cool if a Hide Clock option could be added.

Maybe you add option for carrier name in the future?
