home screen size?? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i have had roms/phones in the past where the widgets/icons will fit the selected home screen perfectly eg. cyanogenmod 4.2, touchwiz, etc.
my current phone is running 4.1.2, and the widgets and icon are almost undersized for the screen, the search bar at the top fits the home screen nicely, but the icons and widgets are not the same size i just think this setup makes the phone look bad.
can i change the setup of widget and icon spacing etc?

Lock icons?

Hi all.
My lady is having problems with main screen icons (default UI) disappearing from buttons, is hers fault indeed, but as i have checked myself is very easy to drag and drop icons from there, is there any way to lock these 4 icons on their places and be able to change than only when going into configuration mode?
Cheers.
i am using adw launcher and it is able to lock the icons
Right, in act of desperation contacted with SE support, been told that there is no way to lock those icons, they made it that way to make it easy to change whenever you want... fair enough, tho option to lock it for good wouldn't hurt anyone i believe.
Cheers
@whiteze I have often the problem that the icons drafted to other pages . Do you bother to make everything neat. State suddenly everything together. With empty space per page.
installed adw instead, there option to make icons larger, locked screen, problem solved

Problem with Adwlauncher Ex

I'm running stock GB update with no moods, unrooted. It seems as though ADW is having some glitches with my quick contacts. I have 8 of them set up on a homescreen in their smallest form 1x1. Sometimes when I run an app or the phone goes to sleep, when I look at the screen again the contacts icons are slightly enlarged with a grey bar along the bottom with two dark grey thumbnail like buttons. When I press the contact, instead of quick dialing like I have them set for, it brings up the copntact menu for text, email, or call. Anyone having this issue or know what the cause may be? Any help appreciated.

I'm pretty sure this is the wrong section since this is an app, not atrix specific

minimalist text question

I've downloaded this to use for my home screen clock. I've got it set at the very top just reading the time. Is there a way to get weather being read down the side of the screen? I want it to hug the left side of the screen so it doesn't interfere with my wallpaper. I thought it was as simple as setting it to a 1x3 or something widget as opposed to 3x1, but that doesn't seem to make any difference.

[Q] Custom PIN Lock Screen Widget

Hi all,
I'm running CM11 Nightly (20140107) on my GT-I9195 (S4 Mini). I'm required to have a PIN lock due to Exchange Policy, but I am able to modify the lock screen widgets. Since I have lowered the DPI for my System UI, I have quite a lot of room available above the PIN lock.
Apart from the date, time, weather and agenda provided by the cLock widget, I think I should be able to fit some more things in there, for example additional system information or some application shortcuts. I would like to have date, time and weather on the top-left, some other widget(s) on the top-right, and full-width agenda underneath.
However, I think you are only allowed to have two full-screen widgets on the lock screen; one default, and another one when you scroll to the left. So, I guess I should use some 'super' widget for this; a widget that is simply a container for other widgets. Does anyone know whether something like this exists? I have found Widget Maker in the Play Store which seems to fit my needs, but although it works fine as a regular home screen widget, it does not show up in the list of widgets when adding a lock screen widget.
Please note that I'm aware of WidgetLocker; I've used this before. The drawback is that you need two steps to unlock your device; first dismiss WidgetLocker, then enter your device PIN. So if possible, I would like to combine the standard PIN lock screen with multiple custom widgets.
Any suggestions?

Icons scale with navigation bar

Hello, everyone!
Recently I installed the Persona 5 theme with KLWP, got the scrolling to work with my Honor 7x (after forever), and now everything is 99% there.
The 1%?
I have my navigation bar set to a hideable format on my phone, so that you can't see them on the home screen. The problem? The icons I have set to Joker's back perfectly jump down to fit the new resolution created by the nav bar being lowered.
Is there any way to fix the icons in place regardless of wheter the nav bar is up or down?
