[Q] app on lockscreen - Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps

hello peeps,
i'm looking to add an ICE app ( in case of emergency ) to my lockscreen, so that it can be accessed directly by emergency services if they check the phone, (hopefully never needed!) i saw somewhere that this was possible, but i cant find it back, and searches only deliver back locker apps
anyone out there can help me out?
edit- maybe clickable app is a better description, i want to be able to see and access the app from the lock screen.

Try this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.livelocker&hl=en
You can chose the app you want as a shortcut
Hit "Thanks" if I helped you!

If you are using CM7, then it has native feature to add 1 3d party app as a shortcut. Check in Settings> Cyanogenmod settings> Lockscreen

havent had time to look into these, report back soon....

Or use widgetlocker, its paid but amazing
This wasn't signature like 'Sent from XDA premium' or something

+1 to widget locker....most customizable one and you can add as many shortcuts you want

[Q] Is this feature available in CM7??

Is there anyway I can ADD an application to the recent app list (the one you get when you hold the home button)?
I dont want to assign the button to just a single app but to more than one...
I want it in a way that I get the app i want (in the top left corner) and also get the list of recent apps?
I am on Galaxy ace CM7 <grif_07>

But you could find an app that groups apps you want together and bind the app to the long press of home button. The setting is in cyanogenmod settings.

yah, thats what I am doing right now,
But it'd be better to have recent apps + an app manager on the list.

Reminded me about that feature. Tried it in B3 and it didn't work. Works now in Behrad's CM7. Long press menu still doesn't work right now though.

you mean what grif compiled for 2.3.7?
Long press menu is actually a brand thing. Didn't have this function with some other android phones.

You can try QuickDesk on the market.

Theres also wave launcher on the market too. QuickDesk is free however eats into RAM makes the phone a little laggy but its awesome.

Works fine for me.
Under WidgetLocker settings, there is an entry for "Unread Counts". I turned that on and enabled TeslaUnread. From there I went to the "TeslaUnread Settings" and checked SMS, MissedCalls, and Gmail. (They might have been checked by default; in any case, check the ones you want to use.)
Then I put the icon for the respective apps on my WidgetLocker screen.
Hope that helps. If not, let me know more specifics and I'll try to help.

Long press on the WL tool (edit) screen then application. That'll give you the icon just like on your homescreen.

Hm, where in the app list can be found widgetlocker "notification bubble"? All I see is just app icon, but that don't give you missed calls/SMS count on lockscreen.
I also looked in shortcuts/widgets....but can't find Tesla notifications anywhere.
Of course I set Tesla unread as default under Unread counts in WL.
EDIT: Ok, I found... I realised that main app (SMS, phone, etc) get a badge.
Moved to Q&A
wrong app
Hi! So I've bought Nova launcher and installed Tesla unread. It's cool, but tesla puts missed calls counter on "Contacts" app icon, not on "Phone". It's not that bad, but still makes me fill uncomfortable. Is there way to fix it?

[Q] Shortcut or fastest way to disable/enable an app (or at least show app-info)

Hey,
need a fast way to disable/enable an app. Shortcut would be nice. If it's not possible, shortcut to show application info will be ok.
Is there an app for that purpose?
Thank you!
Galaxy Nexus / Android 4.1.1
+1 to this question! Specifically Kakaotalk has wakelocks but i need it thus i would like to enable/disable easily quickly... any advice would be appreciated!
I'm not sure if this is a feasible option, but you could try the nova launcher. It gives you option to go to app info on long-pressing the shortcut.

Open LG Health App Without Smart Bulletin!!

Hello guys,
One disadvantage to the Health app LG included is that you need to have the smart bulletin running on your homescreen to use it. Well not anymore!!
What I did was make an app that will launch the LG Health app. I used Tasker and just exported a simple app to do this! I will share it here for everyone that wants to use the LG Health app but does not want to have the smart bulletin enabled. So far for me it is working fine.
Just download and install the app and to open you just open your app drawer. If you wish to uninstall, mine is version 1.0, which would be an easy distinguishing factor in the app manager, also mine is a smaller sized app than the actual health app.
Just thought I would share because I am sure some people are limited here and would like this setup. Any questions let me know I will be glad to help!
Any of the shortcut making apps on the play store can do this. I did it that way. Many launchers will, too.
Thanks for the effort, though.

Any way to do this in Themer?
I've found you can long hold the desktop and go to advanced/shortcuts, but I don't see Activities in there.

I understand that, but some people may not, and this also adds it to their app drawer which is a small convenience.
Just throwing it out there as an option.
On Nova launcher, I just have it set as a nova activities widget. Works great. Icon is what it looks like as a shortcut with the circle case.
Just go to widgets, add the activities widget (might require nova prime), and choose LG health. Done.

install apex launcher but make themer your default launcher. this will give you an activities shortcut. there you will find LGhealth.
Thanks, I'll give it a shot. This won't put it in my App Drawer though will it? Using themer, I hate putting shortcuts on the screens, it is too perty.
I'm trying to get Themer to make this possible, they don't understand right now.
Hi everyone,
You can also download the Any Cut app from the Play market to achieve this. At least that's how I did it.
Open the App ---> go to activities and select LG Health from the list.
The only drawback for some could be that it doesn't get the shortcut to the app drawer. But that may no be an issue for everyone.
Hope it helps

tap and hold on desktop > ADW settings > desktop configuration > top panel > behavior (Disable)
Thank you
Thank you so very much !! Would you by chance know how I can get my notification bar at the top to show?
