Can you set DashClock as the default lock screen widget and does it have the beautiful full screen album art like AOSP KitKat?

Now that we have root I have been able to use the Xposed frame work to do get the full screen widgets.
Use "Maximize Widgets" from the xposed downloaded and add lockscreen widgets normally.
I have been unable to get full screen album art working at all so far. Will let you know if i get it working.

Would like to know that, too. Already switched to stock lockscreen with xposed, but still no full screen album art...

Does your lockscreen give you an option to unlock or camera?
If so that is AOSP and it won't work with the weather widget.
I am sure it can be fixed but I have no idea and haven't attempted.
If your not using it then no idea, I thought he kept the files for it to work.
Ya i am sorrry, i do have that screen
I have the Accuweather app and the AOKP lockscreen and the 1x4 wiget works fine. Or are you trying to use the weather wiget on the lockscreen? Try the 1x4 on the home screen and use no background collor...

There is a lockscreen weather widget included with the official builds.
Which is also in the Settings.apk for you to turn on and off but only works on Samsung lockcreen.
Your way is the only easy workaround as of now, I suggested it for others.

The Samsung (Circle) lock screen is an add on in the second post of the SHOstock2 thread. So if you want to use the weather on your lock screen you can change to the other lock screen. The clock position in the settings also only applies to the circle lock screen. You don't need the accuweather widget installed for the weather on the circle lock screen to work.

[Q] Auto-Change Lockscreen Wallpaper

Is there any application or mods to automatically change lockscreen wallpaper randomly every X minutes?
I have installed tasker but I don't know how to do this with tasker.

Update: there is a live wallpaper that does that for lockscreen but the problem is the touchwiz lock screen dims the live wallpaper
Thanks

Thanks but photolive wallpaper changes lock screen wallpaper automatically?
Is there anyway to prevent lockscreen dimming the live wallpapers?
photowall changes wallpaper automatically for homescreen and lockscreen. Screen dimming is due to the circular lockscreen, if you want that changed you may have to edit framework or install a lockscreen app like widgetlocker

I'll try photowall
but widgetlocker can only show LWPs if the home screen has one set. I want it only on my lockscreen

[Q] auto change the lockscreen wallpaper?

I have been searching around for a way to automatically change the lockscreen wallpaper. I have Samsung Galaxy S4. It has a lockscreen wallpaper called "travel wallpaper" which does this but has major limitations (can't select the images myself, uses mobile data). I ahve tried other wallpaper changer apps / live wallpapers, but they only change the homescreen wallpaper not the lockscreen.
I do have WidgetLocker and added some widget that did the trick... but I am trying to go back to the stock lockscreen since WidgetLocker hasn't been reliable for me (it only works sometimes, others the stock lockscreen shows up. Also WidgetLocker doesn't have media controls.

The annoying thing is that the Z2 truncates lock screen widgets, I use Chronus Flex on the lock screen, the first image is the how it looks by default, the second image is how it looks when maximised.

If you're rooted there are xposed modules that default the screen to the expanded view

Any way to hide clock from lockscreen on non-rooted device?

Hi guys! Is it possible to hide the clock from the lockscreen on a non-rooted device? Thanks!
Install "good lock" utility and then "lock star" module. you can hide whatever you want from lockscreen.
I am using a tablet. Good lock doesn't seem to work in album mode, doesn't really override the stock lockscreen (first I see my stock loscksreen and only after that Good Lock is loading) and I can't find the lock star module.
I have Galaxy Tab S3 and S4, currently S3 is on Android P and S4 on Q. I have downloaded "Fine lock" app. Downloaded all modules via this app(as it takes you the the compatible version of Android and module) and they are working fine. Howeever, "the latest version of lockstar" having some issue with Android Q, so I installed one step version version. And it is working as it supposed to be.
OK, I downloaded Fine Lock and managed to get it working, clean locking LockScreen as I wanted, but now I have an issue with wallpapers. Fine Lock's styles only support Portrait oriented wallpapers, and I am using my tablet mostly in album mode. Any suggestions how to get horizontal wallpaper display correctly on lockscreen in album mode?

I do not know which version of Android you are on. But On my S4 with Android Q, I can choose any wallper with "LockStar" and it works fine. . You can activate autorotate and it will turn automatically.Or just Turn your wallparer to lanscape orientation with Gallary app or any other photo editing app. and apply it.
