So if you are using Sammy rom, you would know that it is not possible to change the icons of the app shortcuts on lock screen. Unless you modify the APK directly to change the icon file. I've been looking for a way to change their icons according to the launcher's theme, etc but haven't been able to.
I know there are the possibility of using different lock screen app/widget but I prefer to use the stock TW lock screen. I'd love to use AOSP lock screen too, but with my DPI mod the AOSP lock screen comes with Simple Framework is simply off the center and cannot change lock screen shortcuts either.
So if anyone out there able to find a way to change these shortcuts, please share!!!
Much appreciated!!
You can change lock screen icons in touch wiz by selecting lock screen options and then shortcuts.

You misunderstood me. What I want is change the lockscreen shortcuts's ICONs, I know how to set which app shortcuts I want on lockscreen...
Hey so I'm using SGS3 I9300, currently running Omega v42.
I'm looking for a Screen Lock app that has a PATTERN lock. So far I downloaded like 15 different apps, some of them doesn't support pattern at all, the others just show stock lockscreen after the app lockscreen, making it kind of stupid.
I'm mostly looking for a lockscreen that has a pattern lock and an option to show widgets. Best will be if there's an option to add different pages to the lockscreen (like CM10 style, where each page is a whole widget and can drag the pattern lock from the button).
Thanks in advance!
hey guys,
is there a way to add a weather widget to the lockscreen?
also, what about shortcuts like the cyanogenmod ones?
no one?
In settings, Security -> Enable widgets.

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
[Q] How to prevent home screen icons from moving accidentally (lock icons in place)?) Like the one zenui has. It locks the icon on the home scree, so i wont accidrntally dragging icons. I need to turn that feature off first before i can drag the icon.

It's a feature your launcher has to support.
I'm using Lineage 14.1 with Nova Launcher and have the icons locked.
Is there any cc9 launcher apk files for mi a3?
Nova launcher pro, everytime on every phone ? Swipe up gesture to turn screen off, swipe down to show notifications. Widgets can overlap and resize freely. Has app drawer. I am not aware of other launcher with these (and many more) features.

You lose pie/Android 10 recents with Nova though.
For Android 9 I use Hyperion launcher
For Android 10 I use paphonb quickstep port (or lawnchair v2 early Android 10 release which is pretty buggy but usable)

I wasn't even aware that recent menu has changed with Pie. Just tried it and to be honest, I prefer the Nova recent menu. But maybe I'll give a chance to and try some other launcher with system recent menu support.

You will also need quickswitch magisk module to enable the recents view on custom launchers that support it

I have also nova pro. it really has cool features but i m looking for a launcher which without app drawer.
Stock launcher is good enough for me i like it, i use to use pixel launcher in my old phone, i already have pixel launcher in mi a3 so no need for 3rd party launcher

Nova settings -> app drawer -> gestures -> swipe to open/close. You can remove app drawer icon then. It's pretty close to the stock launcher behavior. Or, Nova settings -> home screen -> new apps -> add icons to home screen. Then you don't need to use app drawer at all, all new app icons will be on your home screen after installation (you will need to add existing apps manually though).
Nova since 4ever.
Swipe up for drawer, drawer have one page and everything in folders, double tap to turn off, swipe down for notifications , counter clockwise for settings.

Still like I said above you will lose the Android 9/10 recents view on launchers that don't support it. Nova being one of them
I'm a huge fan of Nova. It's the best launcher for Android ever made. But recently I've switched to Hyperion. It's really awesome. I really like the blur effect a lot. Immersive mode, gestures, screen lock-everything is there. It's the second best launcher imo.
I'll probably switch back to Nova eventually.
Another launcher I really like is Lean launcher. Super lightweight, super snappy launcher with not many customization options. Has Google feed & screen lock with double tap though. Allows you to hide apps & change the icon for individual apps.

Just wondering, what's so good on stock recent apps menu? I use it only to switch between apps. The omnipresent Google search bar irritates me, can it be disabled?

Just how fluid it is being able to open the app drawer from the recents menu by just swiping up on the dock and the way it fits with the gestures of Android 10 now aswel it's just way better in my opinion. But it is completely up to the person and what they prefer themselves. I can't tell you it's the best coz each to their own.
Also thats pixel launcher that has Google search. Aosp quickstep launcher does not have Google search in dock

I see, thanks for the explanation. So you basically like features which I prefer not to be present. Nova launcher with "old" recent menu seems to be the better choice for me. Anyway, going to try Hyperion, it sounds nice I'll give a chance to the quickswitch Magisk module too, maybe it'll grow on me.
Mine is Niagara, best simplistic launcher, best one handed launcher ive ever used.

I suppose you mean recen apps, because recent in general is the same.
+1 for Niagara and Lines icon pack.

Ya and the way you can access the app drawer by simply swiping up on the dock. It just all fits seamlessly with the new gestures
