I am unable to find in Settings the option for choosing the lock screen widgets.
I enter this option only from the Add button from the lock screen. I have a Nexus 4 with Android 4.2.2.
Where can I find this option?

Is it possible to lock widgets so that changes cannot be made to the 4.2.2 lock screen?
View 1 Replies View Relatedcurrently using widgetlocker and it is great, but I would like to get more functionality out of my lock screen
Basically looking to cram more widgets/info in there & I've run out of space
Wondering if there is a way to have more than 1 page on the lockscreen and be able to swipe through them
Or something like double tapping a widget/the lock page and have it flip over to present more info on the other side (used to have something like this on iphone, Intelliscreen)
device info: Galaxy Nexus gsm yakju, unlocked bootloader and rooted
why you can't add widgets on the lock screen if you use any other security option besides "swipe". I see it in settings but once you lock the screen you can't view any widgets. I like having my camera on my lock screen

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just upgraded my S2 to 4.2 and like the new android lock screen. But to replace widget locker I would like to have an option to have multiple widgets on one lock screen page.
Any app that simply puts multiple widgets into one widget that can be added to the lock screen?
once installed, this app allows you to change the lock slider to various other options, lets you add widgets from other apps to the lock screen and also lets you add other shortcuts.there are lots of options in the settings menu as well.

View 39 Replies View RelatedI am googled and searched and all i keep finding is apps that will go onto the lock screen. I am looking to put Beautiful Widgets on the lock screen without having to put an app to edit the lock screen. I swore i read somewhere and seen it on a picture, but I don't know how to do it. Is it a setting that i am missing or a launcher or something. Any help would be great, like i said, I have been looking for a little over 2 weeks and can't find anything but Fly Screen and Lock Widget locker or something. Both of those are great programs, but not what i am looking for.

Is there a way to lock settings? Like, use a password to access android settings, I tried to use some "App Lock" apps, but if there's a widget that change the settings, it doesn't ask for a password.

If someone steals my phone they will be able to shut it off without unlocking it since holding down power button still works. So is there a way to lock the power button from shutting off phone when the phone is in pattern unlock mode?
Is there a way or an app that will let me lock certain parts of Settings? Like if I want to allow our users to change Sound, Display, etc, but lock them out of Applications and Accounts&Sync?
I have found a few apps that will let us password protect things on the phone, but with them if I choose Settings, then they can't change anything and I want them to have a bit of flexibility, but I have to keep them out of Applications because then they could just kill the password app that locks them out of certain apps.
I'm looking for a way to lock or password protect the wallpaper settings. There are apps out there that lock apps, and lock the "settings" app, but long pressing the homescreen allows you to alter wallpapers directly and circumvents any such protection.
I know you can password protect the whole phone, but that's besides the point. I'm looking for a way to protect wallpaper settings specifically.
I just got my new DROIDX recently and I have a couple of questions (I have been a windows mobile girl since the very first smart phone).
1. Is there a way to "wake up" the phone by tapping the screen instead of hitting the button on the top?
2. The "lock" seems to come on every time the screen goes black. So every time I go to use my phone I have to slide that little unlock thing. Its quite annoying.
3. Is there a quick way to lock the screen? I want to be able to lock it easily when I go to put it in my bag or something......but if its just laying around the house I dont want it to lock automatically.
I'm on a family plan with my wife and 13yr old son. We purchased a Galaxy S4 for our son as a Birthday present in October. However, as of recent his grades have taken a dive. We notice he eats, sleeps and breathes on the phone. He primarily uses it for surfing the net, instagram or youtube. We were thinking of grounding him and removing his phone but we need him to have his phone as a point of contact. However, is there anyway to stop his data usage. I realize there is a setting on the phone to disable data usage but it is fairly easy to re-enable it.
Is there anyway to lock or password protect the phones settings or data usage?
I tried googling but the results kept yielding information relative to the "lock screen" which isnt what im looking for.
A Tasker task that when I'm on the lockscreen, I can tap or double tap to turn the screen off. I've looked in the Tasker tasks and I'm unable to find anything for this. I already use the Nova gesture+ScreenOff app to turn the screen off when I'm unlocked and at the homescreen, which works perfectly. The only thing Nova can't do it turn the screen off from the lockscreen.

I've found some sets that have some of these but none with all of them. Obviously I could mix & match but it would look better if I could get the same look and feel.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor some reason I'm having problems deleting the widgets by dragging them into the bin. 9 times out of 10, the rubbish bin refuses to appear when I long press on a widget.
Is there another way - eg some settings menus somewhere or maybe a file that I can edit.

My apps widgets arent updating according to the settings. For example, weather bug widget, and Google finance, and engadget. I have to click into the app itself to get it to appear correctly. Sorta defeats the purpose of a widget! Is there another parent setting that is preventing this?

I have installed Dash Clock but in order to get it working the instructions say I have to Enable Widgets under Settings - Security. However when I go to Settings - Security I don't see the option to Enable Widgets.I verified Android version in About Device.
View 8 Replies View RelatedRegardless of the launcher when I try to add a widget and the list is about to show up I get a force close from the Settings app. Im assuming that the Widgets list is part of the settings app but I don't know what I can do to fix it. I've tried:
1 - Using Clockwork to fix permissions.
I just upgraded to latest android version but the only issue im having is that certain 4x4 widgets are now only available for the lockscreen rather than the home screen...
Is there any way to get these 4x4 widgets to work for the homescreen like before? Maybe there is a certain mod?
Is there anyway to disable the initial swipe lock screen and replace with the pattern lock? Seems silly to have a double lock.....the pattern seems much better to me.

For those of you who would like to spice up their lock screen, I have created an image of a master lock, that stretches as you slide across the screen!I have included a screen shot of this in action, as well as a link to the .9.png - which needs to be installed using NinjaMorph.I'm loving it, let me know what you think!MultiUpload Download Master Lock .9.PNG
View 45 Replies View RelatedWhat i'm trying to achieve probably requires an app, and I realise there are a couple of different ways I could go about it. I'm going to deploy 30 android tablets to a classroom in the College where I work, and since I love android, i'd rather not see this little experiment fail. Through a combination of "App Lock" and a widely distributed MDM, I have been able to accomplish most of my requirements, however i'd still like to be able to lock down the home screen, in particular, remove the ability for users to change the wallpaper (I have a nightmare that this feature would be abused from day one!).
I have looked at using different launchers (tried Apex and Smart Launcher) which nicely lock down the home screen, but they still allow users to change the launcher preferences which makes that approach a bit pointless.
