I guess the developer has given up on this project, to bad was a great app
[Android Themes] mon5trum:
Well first of all the developer of this great app is just that one developer working and updating several apps. Second most questions about the app have been asked in the Google plus community, so you might want to check that out. And third if the developer would have given up on the app you would never receive an update!

I agree with what you're saying but how long has it been since the last update, I just want him to update the app so that it is compatible with the Samsung Note 3 on Verizon it will not load from the Play Store
[Android Themes] evoliphant:
I was writing about the widgetlocker community helping one another out. A single developer can obviously not handle every single question he gets from emails, different forums, Google +, and everywhere else they come from.

I would think an app that is so widely used and modded by hundreds of thousands of people would have a good support community to help each other. I guarantee you that someone out there has been through and solved many of the questions from the last few pages. I know no one is obligated to do it, I've just seen it so much with roms I figured a popular app such as this would be similar.

My wife just got an update about a week ago, and I get them more regularly because I get the beta updates. But just be patient everyone that gets the latest phone always has to wait for an update that will fix your problem especially since it's harder for you to root and change dpi to get to work.

I recently got a Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition and put WidgetLocker on it. However, I've run into a problem with trying to use the Alternative Wallpaper option.

It keeps on showing the wallpaper of my home screen for whatever reason. Even what I have the Alternative Wallpaper box checked off...

Has anyone else had this problem, or something similar? And were you able to fix it or get around it?

Hi All Seniors,

I am Noob and customizing my own lockscreen. Have made one psd and set grid of WL to 10x10

Any guide how I should design so when I add 1x1 uucw it fits to where I want it ?

I am getting odd placement and sizes of uucw to set according my psd layout.

Using Note2.
[Android Themes] funkpod:
You can try dividing up the psd into 10x10 grids. But it's mostly trial and error, I believe. Or take a screen shot of a while bunch of 1x1 widgets occupying the widget locker lock screen and then using that screen capture to determine your grid.

Hi all,

I just installed widgetlocker on my new Nexus5 and restored the old lockscreen configuration.

However the Background is always transparent. I seem to not be able to get rid of that.

I want the standard system Background on my lockscreen....I had this working on my Galaxy Nexus.

Using the widget locker configuration "Alternate Background" does not do the trick as I have a live wallpaper

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Reduce length of swipe required on sliders ?

Hi, is there a way to reduce the amount of travel that the slider needs to be

dragged over the screen until the corresponding action is triggered ?

I don´t like that I need to drag the sliders almost completely across the screen ?

Any help appreciated !

I had to understand to "disable" the opposite slider first and use only

one slider, resize it and then assign a second, separate slider to

the other side....allowing to "overlap" of course.

Works now, thank you. But I thought there was an easier way.
[Android Themes] cloudspine:
Hello all,

I've encountered a problem with Widgetlocker, and I hope somebody can help or point me in the right direction. The problem, in a nutshell, is that Widgetlocker unlocks itself, so to speak, right after a missed call. I've replicated it every time I tried it (calling myself from my fixed line). When the phone rings, I see the caller ID screen. If I don't answer, after the ringing ends, Widgetlocker appears for a couple of seconds, and then it simply unlocks itself and I get the home screen.

This is a nuisance if the phone is in my pocket, I don't hear the ringing, and it gets unlocked by itself...

All this is on a rooted Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini.

:: edit ::

Nevermind, I seem to have solved it, for now at least, by selecting Homehelper instead of Nova Launcher in the Home Helper part of the advanced settings.

How do I remove gmail and insert outlook.com on the left panel pull over for my mail user agent?

Same question for Dolphin browser vs default browser?

I don't use gmail or other google stuff except for playstore. I manage my contact and calendar

change wallpaper automatically

Is there any way to get the widgetlocker background to cycle through several images automatically so that you could have a different wallpaper every hour?
[Android Themes] Lianthe:
Same on Tab 2 10.1 with Slimkat. No response to my 2 emails to dev either.
[Android Themes] hawkwind212:
One way that I know is via "tasker" app. Write a profile that changes your launcher's background wallpaper at certain period of time, and set widget locker to use the launcher 's background wallpaper.

Hi guys: I want help for my first widgetlocker. I was in my pc about 5 hours, and I don't have idea how make this. My idea is simple, a slider to the right with this:

Many thanks for your time, and sorry, but I'm very noob with this.
[Android Themes] nut88:
I hope this is right place to ask this, but how do i create a freely movable slider for widget locker ?

So that you can unlock lock by pulling it in any direction, i don't need any shortcuts.

Slider would be just simple circle.

Im aware that there's jellybean and ics sliders by default, but they don't react as i would like.

That circle has to be visible all the time, that isn't the case with either of those sliders mentioned above.

If you are still unsure what i mean, check that link https://www.behance.net/gallery/10-Android-Lockscreens-UI-Collection/13402623

Im trying to create that minim lockscreen.

Thanks.

[Android Themes] joker252:
Has anyone created the slider from lollipop yet?
[Android Themes] JRJ442:
I haven't seen one. But its fairly easy to do yourself. All you need is the invisible tabs theme. Then you can set your shortcuts one either side to whatever apps you want, and the middle tab to be the unlock button. I pulled the slider icons from this icon pack https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=iconic.theme.lollicon. The unlock icon I pulled out of a L lockscreen app on the play store and resized it in Photoshop. I can post that too if you like.

I also use NILS with a L theme for lockscreen notifications.
[Android Themes] Littlewolf:
I hope someone can help me.

I use Llama to start an app when I get home or when i connect to bluetooth in my car. The problem is, that the app starts in front of widget locker but I want it to start in the background. Is there any possibility to change this behaviour?
[Android Themes] rfkd:
Does anybody know if Widgetlocker is still being developed? Just thinking about lollipop support. Some settings cause Widgetlocker to crash and 3 user interactions to come to the home screen on locked devices is not optimal behaviour imho.

troubles with WL on android 5.0

Hi ... after updating my nexus 4 to Android 5.0 I have a problem with widget locker: in practice I do not see more than the correct graphics for the different sliders that I installed.

How can I fix?

PS: Why the developer does not update more this fantastic app from the developer? Last update a year ago ...

Thanks in advance
[Android Themes] hawkwind212:
The developer is a one man gang, he is currently focus on his pride and joy nova launcher, and getting it ready for the transition to the Lollipop. This app and all the rest of other apps such as the homesmack and Tesla flash light are not his top priorities right now. With that said, I too wish he would go ahead and give this app some major updates. I tried to buy other lock screen app, but none came close to widget locker in term of customization. Hopefully Kevin will give widget locker updates once he is done updating nova launcher. If not, what other app can you replace widget locker with? So it looks like we all just have to wait and keep our fingers crossed.

position of the lock

Hi,

How can I put the lock (it's on the bottom by default), in other position? By long pressing on it I can modify the dimension but not the position, I want to put it in the center of the screen
[Android Themes] hawkwind212:
Ok, I'll try to describe how to you, if you don't already know how to do this. Go to look and feel in the setting, and select layout. Once you're in the layout, look at top left corner you see a picture of grid. There is a picture of lock at the bottom of grid call the anchor. Pull the grid over the anchor by dragging the arrow in the grid picture. Once you no longer see the anchor, down in the middle of layout, you see where you can enter the grid size manually, go head and enter the grid size you want.Once you're finished, you can go back to your widget lock screen and put the locker any where on the page, because now it's like a widget, and not confined like an anchor.

WL & variable sliders

Hi there everyone! First-time poster here, but seasoned reader and viewer of xda forums!

I made this account to ask you guys a question about a certain implementation which has stumped me.

I have multiple ''unlocking'' sliders on my lockscreen (see attachment), but only ONE

truly

unlocks my screen, while the others via Secure Settings & Tasker do certain stuff. (ask for password, take a picture, lock phone, etc.).

Could you tell me if it is possible to change THE ONE slider that unlocks my phone, depending on ...lets say... the time?

If the time ends in a 9 (eg. 00:49) then the 9th slider unlocks the phone, or, when the time is 11:55 the 5th slider unlocks the phone.

I'm asking you guys, because with this, i will have no need for passwords or patterns for extra security, but a simple, but certain, slide-to-unlock gesture.

Is there a way to make WL so variable?

..please help..

(edit) PS: i hope you all have a great New Year!!
[Android Themes] fuzzynco:
I need a couple of lines of static text -- clock works but has other issues.

Is there any other way to display a couple of lines of static text

for the lock screen, (other than using the built-in clock widget)?

Or perhaps just using the display text fields and suppress

everything else the built in widget displays?

Ideally, a widget that does nothing but display the text .

I'd like to use one of the standard clock / weather widgets

for the clock functionality.

Thanks

Question about what I am going to call "true lock"

Please point me in the right direction if this answer has already been answered somewhere and I missed it. I don't even know if this is possible or if maybe I'm just not smart enough. Disclaimer: I'm fairly new to the smartphone world. The question I have is this: If I put an app on my lock screen such as Phone, or flashlight and I access Phone or flashlight from the lock screen, I know that I can return to the lock screen by pressing the back button. I also see that if I access an app such as Phone of Flashlight from the lock screen if I press the home button I get into the phone. Is there a setting or is it even possible to set the phone so that if I access an app such as phone or flashlight from the lock screen, I can only go back to the lock screen?
[Android Themes] hawkwind212:
I think the question you're asking is one of many reasons that this app needs to be updated. I have stopped using widget locker because the button issue, and the security issue as well Anytime I can push the home button to get into my device, so how can anyone call this app a screen locker? Calling it a screen saver may make more sense because there is no security to speak of with this app.

[Android Themes] chickensuitcharlie:
I actually managed to find exactly what I was looking for this weekend. C Locker locks out the home button. If you go to an app from the lockscreen and press the home button, you get taken back to the lockscreen. I splurged and shelled out the $2.49 for C Locker Pro. You will need to go to Other Options and turn on Enable Return to Lock Screen. Much happiness I am experiencing.

:):)
[Android Themes] hawkwind212:
After I read your reply, I decided to give c locker pro a try. I must say it's much better than widget locker right now in term of security and features. Thank you for mentioning c locker pro, now I don't have to rely on go locker as my screen locker. Too bad for widget locker because if the dev just update the app, it can so much better than it is right now, but as of now, widget locker is just too out dated to be use as a screen locker.
[Android Themes] hawkwind212:
Ok, I was wrong about home button on widget locker. It turns about all I have to do is select the home help feature under advance in a menu. Then select system home as widdget locker will prevent going to the launcher when the home button is pressed. With that said, widget locker still has a lot of updating to do, especially now I have tried C locker, it has many features, such as security and UI that widget locker needs to get.

Lockscreen

After I slide the slider in widget locker I have to do the same with the next screen where I am presented with the Android lock screen.

Is there anyway to bypass the android slider so it goes straight to the unlock screen where I enter my pin
[Android Themes] hawkwind212:
If you're using the pin of stock lock screen, which you're suppose to turn it off if you're using widget lock. Go to system setting, security, and set lock screen to none. That's about only way you don't have to go through two different lock screen. Either that or don't use widget locker. That's what I'm saying about widget locker, it needs its own lock security, which many other lock screen apps such as c locker or go locker have.

Toggle button

Hi,

Do you know if exists (or how create) a toggle boutton (custom slider ?) that would allow me :

1 / state 1 : display an icon n°1 (for the button) and launch a shortcut n°1

2 / by clicking the button, it will switch from previous state n°1 to new state n°2

3 / state 2 : display another icon n°2 and launch another shortcut n°2

It sounds simple to do (1 button toggles in 2 states with 2 icons) but can not (and yet , I spent time for) :crying:

I don't see the problem in "distributing warez" anyway.

Afterall, we're in the forum "Android Development and HACKING."

Hacking is breaking into something that you're not supposed to be in.

The developers of these applications know we all mod their work and distribute it.

If everyone in this forum actually bought everything they're using and posting around, the developers would be rich, and I doubt that's the case.
