Well, I've given up. No reply from the developer on the same issue many people are having here. Problem is not happening with Holo Locker.

You know, I know developers have a life, but ignoring a issue that a lots of people are having is not good. If you can't fix it, tell people that you need a break to deal with life.

You put your point of view on anyone that posts in this thread with an issue.

We get your point but all of us don't share your views & we wouldn't like to continue reading your tirades against the app & its developer. I agree that Kevin hasn't dedicated enough time or effort into this app recently but you don't hijack the thread & act like a spoilt child. Just uninstall the app, request a refund via email & move on.

TO ALL , WHO HATE MY POSTS .....One simple question to you guys , why doesn't Mr. Kevin@TeslaCoil answer to any of these posts or even emails regarding these queries ??

I mailed him twice with my genuine woes & i haven't received a reply as yet ..... !!!
[Android Apps and Games] elhennig:
Of course he could have answered your emails (or better should).

However you should keep in mind that the devs here usually spend their free time to create apps, tools, roms and so on. If Kevin's priority shifted to other things in live you should respect this.
[Android Apps and Games] latino147:
It doesn't matter why he doesn't respond or read this topic. The fact that he DOESN'T makes your repetitive complaints useless.

The only thing you are achieving now is that we all get a notification that something has been posted on this site and we feel a glimmering of hope that some interesting news about WL has been posted. Instead, we get another rant about Kevin.

Btw, I have a nice film tip for you ;)

[Android Apps and Games] TadeoNYC:
This is happening with Nova Launcher and Go Locker. I've narrowed it down to the fact that it happens when opening apps from the notification bar, but not from home screen. I came here hoping for some news on improvements in WL. Specifically to see if Kevin was going to use a home key over ride like go locker has.

Hi, can I ask a quick question

I have a HTC Sensation XL and the power button is broken. Is there anyone on here using the Easy Lock Mode to enable to volume key for this device, and if so is it working?
[Android Apps and Games] cesarleeds:
A quick question for all you WL users, is there any way to hide the softkeys on a smartphone with on screen buttons instead of physical buttons?

I´ve been using WL for a while, since i upgrade to Xperia Z I hasn´t being able to hide the softkeys when WL is displayed, although the original Sony lock screen has them hidden,
[Android Apps and Games] three west:
Hide; no. Not unless you remove them and go with Pie controls instead. (As far as I know). You should be able to disable them though if that matters to you.

Guys,

I don't know if it has been reported but with the beta8, whenever I try to add a tasker shortcut on the application screen, shortcut is created on the locker screen.
[Android Apps and Games] Iceman_jkh:
So sick of these unfixed issues in WL - critical to a lockscreen's functionality (eg: home button bypasses WL) - yet Nova is constantly updated to fix bugs (that are seemingly introduced in earlier Nova versions).

Kevin should release a version of Nova (for paid users of both apps) that has WL built-in. That way it shouldn't have as many problems with the home button skipping straight to homescreen, etc.

Just a thought.
[Android Apps and Games] ketani73:
I welcome your thought but what about those who have paid a premium price for this unattended or rather forgotten app ???? :(
[Android Apps and Games] Iceman_jkh:
I know how you feel, I'm one of them. I'm always happy to do the right thing and support devs, but these problems have been around for far too long IMHO. GO Locker and MIUI (I think it was) have some very cool features that WL doesnt, yet I still hold hope that WL will be improved to a similar level of feature. Perhaps I'm too optimistic.
[Android Apps and Games] The_Steph:
I paid for WL as well and it really does the job very well, however the main issue is that it takes ages for Teslacoil to fix the annoying issues. Hopefully they'll read in this XDA thread that we are waiting for them.

By the way, home button does not bypasses WL if you use WL HomeHelper feature ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Iceman_jkh:
Thanks for the tip, but I've already tried that (and everything else). He does read this thread - I've seen him reply here - but it's kinda too little, too late. I'd definitely NOT recommend this app to anyone and will be moving to DASHCLOCK as soon as it's available on Samsung Galaxy S3.

Hi guys. I am having problem with widget locker .it's not responding on galaxy s3 4.2.2 rom...I did everything. Reinstalled it and cleared data nd catche too .but still its not responding. :confused:

Any help would be appreciated. .

Kind regards
[Android Apps and Games] Namoi:
Hmm, maybe it is because you are on a 4.2.2 Rom. They changed a lot of things concerning lockscreen in this release.

Could someone confirm that it's working on a 4.2.2 based rom ?
[Android Apps and Games] elhennig:
I am running it on Slimbean 4.2.2 Build 6.2 and it works fine. Could be a prob with Samsung roms, though.

everything work fine apart from gmail notifictions! I have the gmail icon on my lock screen and it's not showing the unread count.

in Nova launcher the icon is displaying the amount fine, so I know it's not an issue with teslaunread.

Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] djteiwaz:
I'm sure this has been addressed but I can not find it: Can you make a folder with multiple apps to place on the lockscreen? My issue is I use several different email clients and I would like to add them to one folder that I can edit the icon to match my theme.
[Android Apps and Games] oddspec:
I don't think it supported it as is u have to download a Folder app that runs separate of WL
[Android Apps and Games] djteiwaz:
I tried that but I can't change the icon like on nova launcher. Any other thoughts? Is there a folder app that will allow changing of icons? Or an app that would allow the changing of any icons?
[Android Apps and Games] oddspec:
U could try desktop visualizer it should work it will take a little longer to set up but should work just fine
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
Any widget that acts as a folder can do that. For example, CircleLauncher. A few others showed up by searching for "folder widget" on the Play Store, and most of them have free versions, so you can check them out.

Or you can use Tasker, but that'll be more complicated if you want to have folders, and not just one icon.

I don't know if anyone would be able to help me, I'm having issues with the base app on both my Nexus 7 and my Galaxy Nexus. It works fine for a couple hours, sometimes days at a time, and then will randomly become garbled text and graphics, and will remain that way until a reboot. The garbledness happens on the lockscreen, in the app settings, and even when editing the app. I took some screenshots, because me describing it isn't too clear. Any help would be fantastic! Thanks.

Had posted before in this thread and that was just one of the features people had requested that I finally got around to implementing. It was implemented specifically for Widget Locker which is why I added the feature in the first place and posted that it was ready here.

Still bad form on my part.
[Android Apps and Games] SUTHRNFRIED:
Not sure if this is where I need to ask this but....when using Dashclock with WL I can't seem to get Dashclock to get into its extended form when resizing widget. From standard home screen resizing it does make it extended...but WL won't.

Any way around this or is this a WL limitation?

As stated at the beginning I apologize if this question doesn't belong here.

I wish I could find that post on how to do it then. According to the post I linked it has to be implemented through the ROM.

But like I said if you can find the post to what you're referring please let me know. :thumbup:

at first I found this just to lighten pic but once applied it is completely transparent
[Android Apps and Games] #illidan:
Then maybe you are right. The option Kevin implemented could be using the ROM's 'expand all widgets on lockscreen' feature which obviously wouldn't be there in a stock ROM & that is why you're facing this issues. Sorry about that.

Suggestions?

is anyone having their device wake up randomly on widgetlocker? This happens 90% of the time where when I lock the device, it wakes up almost immediately to the lockscreen. The device also wakes up to the lockscreen randomly after being locked. I can leave it on my desk and see it waking up from time to time, without being prompted any notification.

I'm on the beta for the time being.

Widget Locker and Dashclock

I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out why Dashclock is not displaying full info on Widget Locker when it does on my Home screen. When I add Dashclock to my Home screen it includes weather, battery, texts, etc below the time and date with extended info but when I add it to Widget Locker it only displays the icons next to the time. I have included screenshots to help explain what I mean.

I have tried resizing the widget to as big as it will go (even on a 12x12 grid) and I still do not get the extended information below the clock. I am using an HTC One running Elegancia 4 ROM. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Android Apps and Games] djfoo000:
The play store version doesn't support expandable widgets. Go to widgetlocker settings, hold down the volume down button, go to experimental and enable 'public beta'. Then click check for updates. The beta is built with Android 4.2 in mind and supports expandable widgets.

You say "supports expandable widgets"..

But how to you make the widget expandale?

I'm not a noob to widgetlocker but I don't get this. lol

I have dashclock fully expanded on my widgetlocker screen, no problem..

But from what youre saying Im thinking it can be the "minimized" version with a tap to expand, like in stock.

Am I confused or what?

[Android Apps and Games] Trina9:
Sadly, it looks like those of us who have bought Widget Locker on the Amazon App Store don't have the new version yet. I'm not using it right now because of issues I've had with it, but that's not the point. From what I'm reading, the new version isn't fix yet. Sad, because this app has so much potential.
[Android Apps and Games] Victek:
This is a problem with the Amazon Android App Store in general - not a good place to buy apps where timely updates are important.

As to Widget Locker I'm having a weird problem where it's interfering with answering phone calls, ie the phone rings and there's no way to answer the call. There's only an option to end the call as if it has already been answered. This happened with the previous version as well. Obviously I can't use WL while this is an issue.
[Android Apps and Games] ashaney:
Weird bug

Hi,

First off, I really enjoy the app and it works perfectly 99% of the time.

Occasionally I notice that WL fails to load even if I have the "keep in memory" checkbox checked, especially if I let the screen time out (as opposed to pressing the lock button). By fails to load I mean it skips WL and goes straight to the home screen. I do not allow WL to override the default screen timeout. I have yet to try enabling this option to see if it works.

I have tried root mode, keep in memory, etc. all to no avail. In fact, checking the keep in memory by putting in the notification area usually seems to make the problem worse.

This problem happens sporadically and I'm not sure why. I don't think it is OOM related as it always lists WL as running in my notification tray and I never dip below 600 MB RAM available.

I have a GS4 MF3 rooted with stock recovery and ROM, latest app updates. Using Apex launcher and TeslaUnread plugin.

I can post the debug log if that would be helpful. Hopefully someone else has experienced this issue and has a fix. Thanks!

Alternative wallpaper

Since the update to 2.4 I have trouble setting an alternative wallpaper. I can just pick one but it will never show the wallpaper, only the homescreen with the widgets of widgetlocker on top. I can prevent seeing the homescreen by making widgetlocker black by dragging the tint slider. I have read some other people with the same issues but this bug is not widespread. I tried to make a bug report through widgetlocker but it crashes then. I already emailed the developer. Does anybody know what the problem is and why only a handfull of people have this issue? I'm on a Galaxy S3 with stock 4.1.2 unrooted using Nova Launcher.
