Ello,
Okay do this
1. Open app drawer and slide or touch to widgets and scroll down to the Yahoo! News widgets.
2.Once you place the Yahoo widget on your home screen click on any news article within the widget.
3.Once you do you'll get a selection of news on the top you'll notice an light sliver color status with the settings and refresh.
4. click on settings and select the country settings to the country you live in.

I'm sorry at the moment there isn't a fix the only closest thing you can select is the Brasil (Portugues) i'm sure your already aware of that. But if you like the ticker animation you can try using this app called NewsFlash!
Link ---> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.ne.hardyinfinity.newsflash.general.india
You get the same animation ticker like in a widget with news feed support on your home screen.

I have a Samsung I9305, with I9305NEEBMA1 4.1.2 firmware installed. I wanted to activate facebook lock ticker but it doesn't have that option in lock tickers, only "News" and "Stock". Any solution to this? Which 4.1.2 original firmware has this option, and would work in Portugal? Tried Facebook reinstal, same result...
Help please.

What do you mean "hide" the lockscreen? Do you mean when you press the power button you don't want to have to slide the lockscreen to unlock? If so the phone has a built in setting to bypass it. Go to Menu -> Settings -> Location & security -> Then uncheck "Screen lock"
He said 'hide the lockscreen clock' - I think that somehow, that last word did not register with you

Oh, ha. Yeah my my eyes read lockscreen lock. My bad. Sorry.
You could set the Clock Font on the Lockscreen to a blank font I suppose. I've changed my lockscreen clock font this way.
I followed this guide to do it.

I think that's a blank font, so that might work for you.
Cheers
thanks for the answers.
i bought widgetlocker. I can erase the clock like a widget
"Lockbot" is also very handy.
You could edit style of unlock, your clock (text, size, format, location or remove )
You can make it looks like Froyo / Samsung / X10..

[Q] Stock email app widget notification

I am looking for a widget for my lock screen which will show unread mail via the stock email app (POP Hotmail accounts)
I have looked on the market and there are loads for gmail but can't seem to find anything for stock.
I have tried missed it! but that does display the correct string.
Anyone have any ideas?
Anyone?
I was looking for something similar myself recently and someone pointed out that the stock email icon (not the widget) i.e. long press>shortcuts>applications>Email) has an unread email counter on it and they were right

I think that was me. Glad it helped. Note it works with stock launcher only. Any other launcher just shows the icon.

I've noticed this counter in the app draw and on my main page but how do you add this apply shortcut to the lock screen?
I've tried adding the shortcut in widget locker but it just shows the icon and no counter

Yeah, I do not think that icon will work on any other launcher or screenlock app besides the stock touchwiz. You need to find something else.
The default mail on this phone and maybe android in general is not as good as GMail , that is the reality.

Lockscreen Shortcuts

Hi there. I have a galaxy s3 since a mounth or two and i have a contact that i call 20 or 25 time per day.
I want to know if there is a HACK or a MOD to integrate a direct call shortcut to the original lockscreen of the S3.
Thanks
I'm not sure about a hack/mod for the stock lock screen - someone else will hopefully clue you in about that.
Failing that though you could replace the stock lock screen with Widgetlocker which will allow you to add custom shortcuts and widgets (such as a direct dial widget for instance) to the lock screen.

I know this is old topic but Samsung did no changes to solve the problem. I wanted to keep original lock screen and be able to launch shortcuts from it, so I wrote an app for it. Application can be mapped with any shortcut, so when you press app icon it works like pressing shortcut icon. Unfortunately there is no possibility to change app icons, so I put launcher icons with different numbers on it.
Application is called Shortcut Launcher. You can download it from Google Play.
And if you don't want to install stuff, you could just add a call contact widget on the homescreen, you would still have to unlock it but it's some steps quicker
You can also use the ROM SlimBean, it has the option to add widgets to the lockscreen

Yup...looks like it's only the magazine themes that support lockscreen notifications. Pity there's no other way round it
can you show more details about the settings flow? i having this problem also as i dun understand where is the magazine themes located at... sorry, i'm new user of huawei gadget. appreciate your help
Find the Themes app, already on you phone, then open it, select either the Bazzar theme or the Bazzar_golden theme and then hit Apply at the bottom. (BTW you can customise the theme with different icon sets, wallpapers etc afterwards)

Question Always On Display Customization

Hello good people!! So what i miss in s23 ultra is weather info in always on diaplay like apple or pixel. I know there are some hacks with weather apps but the implementation js usually poor and looks terrible from UI perspective. Alao, who likes to see the weather everytime on notification panel anyway??
Wondering if there are any other options? If not, can we somehow request this so Samsung? This is a big need to make AOD user friendly instead of maybe adding bitmozi and gifs..
Any thoughts ?
I just use an app called today weather and i keep the live notification for weather and on the lockscreen it shows the notification and on the aod it shows the current temp and a small icon of the current weather.

Is the live notification for today weather or the stock weather app? I cannot get it to show for TW nor show on aod Lock Screen
It has to be today weather because ive removed almost every stock app on my device
If you remember how you enabled that please share. I cannot find a way to add anything to the aod lock screen

And on my aod it shows the current temp as a little notification circle thing. You have to have aod show notifications
You can do that with weather bug as well. But the bubble is always there hindering space for other notifications and the weather is always on in notification panel which i find disturbing so stopped using it. I understand these are just work arounds but i wonder, is it possible to bring pjxel like AOD in samsung? The finishing is way better in pixel although it supports less options.
