Hi,
The shortcuts can be moved even if widgets are blocked. Ok, I know widgets are not shortcuts :cyclops:, but it would be nice to be able to block everything on the screen.
Sometimes, by accident, I move the shortcuts ( especially those at the bottom of the screen, like phone, camera ... )
Cheers

Hope this helps

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
Hello,
Is it possible to create a shortcut to lockscreen and place it e.g. on my homescreen?
I'd like to only show the lockscreen, without turning off the screen.
There are many applications on market, but they all lock device and turn the screen off.
If there is such an option in tasker, I must have missed it.
Thanks for any help,
Paul

You mean,you want to lock the device but not turn the screen off with a shortcut?
Yes, exactly.
I'd like to utilize the lockscreen as a "gesture shortcut" application (why install another app, when CM lockscreen has all I need?).
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.
I know how to set up widgets, i have mail, text and gmail. The problem i am having is that when i get a new text message or missed call, it defaults to the stock 1st lock screen where it says "1 Messaging" "1 Missed Call".. Both without details. I would like to know how to get a Gmail and Messaging widget on the first lock screen to see what the message says and what my new Gmail message reads or missed calls, etc.
i can not figure out how to get more that 1 widget on each screen. Also how to remove the default "1 Messaging" notification screen.. Make sense?
It is my understanding that you can only have one widget per screen

With the default lockscreen you can only have one widget at a time. You can get around this by installing another lockscreen app like WidgetLocker Lockscreen.
You could also use DashClock which gives better information than the default lockscreen clock. To see more info you just swipe down and there it is.
To get that working on the default lock screen you need install DashClock and then go in to Settings/MyDevice/Lock screen and click on Multiple widgets. Now go back to the lock screen and pull down and then scroll to the left to the big plus sign. Tap on that and choose DashClock. It will now appear on your lock screen. Setup the notification that you want via DashClock. Now remove the original widget by tapping and holding on it and then drag it up to the garbage can.
Hope this helps you.

Even though you can setup Dashclock this way, it still hides almost all the information until you pull back down again to the screen edit mode.
The stock touch wiz lockscreen sucks. Widgets are clumsy if you use security. The app based lockscreens are all too buggy. Maybe someone will get the AOSP lockscreen working.

Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks
Do you mean besides opening the app drawer, putting your finger on the FB icon, then dragging onto the pane for the home screen you want it on? I set up a blank (invisible) Zooper widget in the top right corner of my screen that launches my FB app (I use Frindly instead of the actual FB one, though). I run a very minimalistic homescreen so that was the best path for me.
