[Q] Lock Screen - Changing the Icons - Can it be done? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone worked out how to change the icons on the bottom of the lock screen yet?
I will be surprised if Samsung left us no way to change these but I guess it may require a file hack

Settings/security/lockscreen options/shortcuts.

Settings - Security - Lock Screen Options - Shortcuts
You can change them from there

Thanks for the quick replies guys, can't believe I didn't see that there!

[Q] CM7: Not getting a lock screen

I recently flashed the latest version of Cyanogenmod on my g tablet and I love it. Everything works great except one thing...
There's no lock screen that appears when I wake it up or turn it on. It skips the unlock gesture, and the lock pattern that I set. I don't care about the first unlock so much as the second, since this thing has my google account information in it.
Has anyone run into this? I've checked every Cyanogenmod setting and regular Android setting I can think of:
CM Settings: Lockscreen Settings: General: Style Options: Rotary
: Lockscreen Gestures: None checked
Locations & Security Settings: Screen Unlock: Use Visible Pattern: Checked
: Change Screen Lock: Pattern set
Any ideas?
ETA: I should also add that the tablet doesn't seem to go to sleep on its own. I've changed the setting for screen off to 5 minutes.
Have you tried Settings --> CyanogenMod Settings --> Tablet Tweaks --> Disable Lockscreen?

Face palm. Thank you. I didn't think to look there. That was the problem.

Widget Locker query

Hi Folks,
Have Widget locker and enjoying it.. i have the home button disabled, and can add shortcuts to apps etc to the lock screen - what i want to do though is change the default sliders - one is fine - its slide right to unlock - left to change sound/virbrate/silent.
the bottom slider is right to camera on - (thats grand) but left or press to change brightness options - id like to get rid of the brightness option and maybe add in a shortcut to an Led torch application.. when i open widget locker in Tool mode is says to drag/drop things around.. but it wont let be alter or drop the bottom slider into the 'remove' trash can..
Any help appreciated.
Cheers,
Mick
add a new slider and on the slider chooser screen slide the tab you want to change across and it should give you the choice to change it to whatever you want
got it thanks..
Hi Folks,
One more query - is there anyway to get notifications on the lock screen with Widget locker? messages/calls/application notifications?
Cheers,
Mick
You can get an app called MissedIt! which allows you to add these to Widget Locker.

Lockscreen

So i just picked up my new phone from Best Buy.
And I want to change my lock screen short cuts....But i can't get it to work in personalize...
Anyone found a fix?
Whatever shortcuts you have on the bottom action bar, those will be the lockscreen shortcuts as well.
As far as I know, there's no way to change them independently of each other.

[Q] ParanoidKANGdroid Lockscreen Weather

I am running this rom on my Note and I like it a lot. But, I've searched and searched and cannot find how to change the settings on the lockscreen. Specifically, I want to change the weather/temperature from C to F. I've found 3 instances of lockscreen settings in my settings but none of them seem to apply to my question.
Where are the lockscreen weather settings for ParanoidKANGdroid? Thx.
Open the main "settings" menu. Touch "interface" then "clock widget". You'll see weather in there. After your done adjusting press the checkmark in upper right hand corner! That's what must people forget to do.
settings - Interface - Clock Widget - Weather - checkmark!

Z3V - Customize Lock Screen Quick Settings

I'm searching for a method to customize the "Quick Settings" available on our Z3V Lock Screen. I've spent a couple of days trying various methods - but the Xperia skin seems to have the lock screen, and the quick settings, locked down. Even GravityBox (Xposed) was useless.
My main goal here is to add the "Screen Mirroring" Quick Setting to the Lock Screen. The uniqueness of the Xperia skin and the fact that that particular Quick Setting is not available on the Lock-Screen version of the Quick Setting is making that part difficult.
This is a rooted Verizon Xperia Z3V (D6708) running Android 5.1.1
If anyone has any tips, mods, or experience working with the lock screen (or getting Screen Mirroring into the Lock Screen) - I'm looking for your help. Thank you :good:
Attaching an image to show the quick settings page for clarification. Screen Mirroring, visible there, is NOT visible on the lock screen. But I want it to be.
