[Q] CM7 lockscreen question - Samsung Galaxy Mini

Hi. I'm just wondering is it possible to get on CM7 lockscreen to show some icon when I have unread SMS and missed call? Something like shortcut maybe? Because I seen it on other CM7 phones... It was between the Unlock and Silent button..
And picture of my lockscreen is in the attach.. I'm using CM7 MusicEdition...
And the second picture is what I woud like to have...

Go to settings> cyanogenmod settings> lock screen> style options.. check the custom app starter.. Then scroll down and press custom app.. Now select the app u want to use..

It's not an app, it's part of your framework and cannot be changed as easily as u think.
No stock lockscreen will show SMS unread count afaik.
U need to use widget locker or any such app and adw notifier or something if u need the bubble notification on lock screen

Why lockscreen doesn't show up in my CM7??

Widget locker

Is there a way to remove the widget locker icon in the status bar? ?? At first I wasn't sure what that notification was then I disabled widget locker and it was gone. So is there a way? And what does the notification mean? It goes from number 2-3. Any help is appreciated!

Have you checked the dev's website? Or the comment section in the market? Or the settings for the app?
I'd try and do some reading around and see what you come up with.
Look under advanced settings of the app..its there.just not recommended

I've never had an issue with disabling it on either 2.1 or 2.2, it never seems to get killed by the OS (having it in the notification bar makes sure it never gets killed). I don't know what numbers the OP is seeing there though it should just be the little Widget Locker icon, the numbers are likely related to another notification.

There is the root option for WidgetLocker so it never gets killed, that's what I'm currently using myself.
Anyone know if this breaks the 4 lockscreen mod? Or is it just strictly an overlay?

It's an overlay. Sometimes you will see the original lockscreen pop up first before WidgetLocker, but you can download an app to fix that.

Lockscreen change

Hi!
Is there a way i can change the standard stock lockscreen without installing an app?
Maybe with a theme...I don't know!
I'm on Django 0.7 with TWLauncher.
Thanks
without external app you have two choices
1. lg stock lock screen (swipe up to unlock)
2. aosp lockscreen (swipe left to right) has bug if u press the menu button it will unlock as well
to switch between them edit build.prop file and change the line user.feature.lock_andy=false will give u option 2 ; =true will go back to default.
the file is located under /system

i would say WidgetLocker is the best but not free.
also have a look at this website there are 11 ways to change the lockscreen
ripplelock is also quite good.

Does it make a lot of ram-consumption?

While I like widgetlocker (and purchased it) I ended up not using it because it takes anywhere between 20-50MB RAM (depending on how many widgets you want to use) from an already small amount of RAM we have.
Without installing an app, you have a third lockscreen: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1314666

What about "Go Locker"? I was thinking of moving to "Go Launcher" so............is "Go Locker" less heavy on ram than "WidgetLocker"?
I use GoLauncher and GoLocker... very stable and smoother... today I play to personalise lockscreen and theme for home and app drawer in ICS Style... prrfect... I spend 1.5€ for to small apps to change this with GoLauncher... 3D efect are more and very smooth... and you can alway decided to revert to default launcher.

[Q] Unread messages widget in lockscreen

Hi guys, I would like to know if there is a way to add a widget in the lockscreen that displays the number of unread messages, and leads to them if clicked.
I mean something like on sgs2/3 stock rom (i don't remember if ace's stock had such a feature).
Thank you I'm advance.
PS: I'm on Apocalypse Rom, as my sig suggests!

use "SMS Unread Count" from https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5rYW5va2dlbXMuc21zd2lkZ2V0Il0.

Search play store for an app called "widget locker". It is a lockscreen replacement that allows you to design your own lockscreen, adding widgets, sliders etc. then just add one of the widgets suggested above.
let me know if this helped

Isnt the "GO" series generally known for high usage of cpu?
I have only tried GO locker when it was on beta, but not as a daily lockscreen...
Well, it doesn't no difference to my phone...performance and battery life still the same...

Buddy dont use any type of launcher except holo launcher as it saves battery next thing if u want widget for messages go to playstore hit widgets and messeging widget on lockscreen....... Or any lockscreen widget.........well enjoy buddy!!!!!!!!!
Instead of using such widgets i solved my problems with SMS pop-up app (as i wrote before). Very easy and more fast even than widgets!

Sometime, many lockscreen is not support add widget. You can download and install "Widget lockscree" from Playstore.

[Q] Only shortcuts of apps in 4.2.2 ?

In android 4.2.1 , if you moved app to the bar at the bottom or directly on your homescreen, you MOVED IT from app drawer. Now in android version 4.2.2, you just CREATE A SHORTCUT, so apps in the bar at the bottom are duplicated with apps with the app drawer and same with the apps on home screen. Is there any possibility to switch it back like in android 4.2.1 ?

on 4.2.1 if you moved apps from the drawer , they disappeared in the drawer. Now they stay there and only shortcut is created. Its really annoying for me because all apps i have on home screen or in the bottom bar are duplicated also in App drawer and my layout in app drawer is now messed up because of this. I can live with that, but i liked the way in 4.2.1 better

What do you mean? Apps on both places or both options ( move/create shortcut) available?

You can always hide the app in the drawer. Doesn't that work for you?

^ This.
Also I lol'd at this thread a little bit. Not because OP's gripe isn't legitimate, mind you, but because there were scores of threads when the HTC One first came out complaining about the app disappearing from the drawer when it was put on the dock. I found the irony chuckle worthy.

Ehm, if you hide app in the drawer, you hide also the shortcuts of the app

Personally, i like this on my Nexus 7 , but on HTC One, where you can switch to "custom" in app drawer and have folders there , it seems weird to have same folder in app drawer and also in the dock. But i'll just have to live with that.

Sorry I didn't remember that as I use Nova Launcher where you can hide them and still have the shortcuts.
Why don't you gather these duplicate icons in a folder then ? They will take less of your space.

Yeah, already tried that. But folders has limited capacity so i would need a number of folders, which is quite contraproductive.
Nevermind, it looks like i'll have to deal with this as i dont want to create any other folders or use any other launcher.
Just wanted to know, if there is any possibility how get switch this to the 4.2.1 behaviour.
