Hi,
Since Google are pushing us to use Hangouts instead of Messages is there any (easy) way of replacing the Messages shortcut on the slide lock screen with Hangouts? I can't find any option to change it ...
Thanks in advance
Hi,
The original Moto lock screen is not customizable.
If you want to change this, you'll need a custom lockscreen, check the play store for a such app (GoLocker, WidgetLocker Lockscreen etc.)
I am using DynamicNotifications and can fully recommend it!

I'm currently using ChompSMS with Darkys ROM. I really like how when I use the stock messaging app and I get a message I have a message puzzle piece that I can drag into place and go straight to that message from the lock screen. Unfortunately when using chompSMS messaging app this shortcut is no longer available from the unlock screen. Is there anyway to change this?
Hello all
Its still within a week of me getting the HTC One, but as I wandered further down the rabbit hole, I have already flashed TrickDroid onto it (mainly to keep the option for HTC Sense components I like) and the Nova Launcher.
Now, I do not get the Lock Screen notifications (SMS, Calls, Alarms), even though this is set to "Productivity" under Settings > Personalize > Lock Screen Style. I cant find any other settings relating to lock screens.
Last night, I tried adding the "Nova Launcher Prime", but this didnt offer any additional lock screen settings. I then tried "MagicLocker Main" which did put items back on the lock screen, but I didnt like the functionality.
So, I am forced down the route of *needing* to install an additional lock screen app? If so, is this due to some bug, etc, with TrickDroid or Nova that doesnt allow use of the built-in lock screen functionality on the HTC One? (Not sure if the lock screen is HTC Sense 5 or AOSP...) What are the recommended local screen apps? Next on my list was "WidgetLocker Lockscreen" as its made by the same people as Nova Launcher, but the intro text makes it sound really old... HTC Sense 3.0!?!?!?
Thanks

TrickDroid with the stock Sense lockscreen does not have any such notification problems. Did you select the AOSP lockscreen option during the Aroma installation? If so, that's probably most of your problem. Forcing an AOSP lockscreen on a Sense ROM can cause problems because these 2 were not really made to go together. If you're not sure which screen you have, the stock Sense lockscreen has the 5 icon row at the very bottom. If you don't have the Sense lockscreen, reflash TrickDroid (without wiping) with the AOSP lockscreen option unchecked.
Once you do this, be sure the option for "Notification Preview" is enabled in the Messages app, otherwise you won't see any SMS notifications on the lockscreen.
Thanks henrybravo
Tried your steps to re flash without wiping, and ensuring AOSP Lockscreen isn't installed, can't recall if I did choose this option before, but it is possible. Various messages appear on lock screen again now, like SMS and calendar notifications.
Does this mean staying down the HTC Sense 5 apps, there are some aspects of stock AOSP that just won't work? Or just TrickDroid that I have been using?
Thanks again
Hello everyone,
I just got my OPO and Im in the process of trying to customize it the way I want it. I know what i want to do but I haven't been able to figure out how to accomplish it despite searching. In simplest term I am looking for a more functional lock screen. A major priority is launching google now without unlocking the phone. I searched for Ok google anywhere, but only came up with aftermarket apps. I previously had some version of jellybean on my kindle where the lockscreen allowed me to choose between unlocking the phone, and launching google now. Is there something I can install or a similar rom for Kit Kat and the OPO?
So far I installed an app called Slidelock which displays messages and notifications on the lock screen iphone style. It works great but an option that lets me quick reply from there would be even better. I haven't come across such an app or setting. Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated.

You can "call" Google now from any screen including the lock screen just:
Open Google Now
Settings
Voice
"Ok Goole" Detection
And select the options you want: From Anyscreen and From Lock Screen
Done.

For notifications. Try echo notifications
I think its much better then slidelock and nlis notifications. 100% free no ads
Sent from my A0001 using XDA Free mobile app
echo replaces the lockscreen, which makes it a no no for me, but some people do like that.
Nils you can set up by changing to aosp lockscreen on the opo, (settings lockscreen, disable custom lockscreen) then adding the widget, moving widget to default position then swapping back to custom lockscreen in the lockscreen settings.

Hi,
I have my Z3C for 2 days now and I really like the phone! But there is a point where I am still struggeling, as I am coming from a MotoX.
Is is possible to activate notifications on the lockscreen? I don't want to swipe the notification bar down everytime I unlock the phone when somebody texts me. I tried some apps (DynamicNotifications, Notify!, Go Locker, Floatify) but none of them are working for me, or I am to stupid to use them Over that it would be great when the screen is lit up for some seconds when a notification appears.
I hope that somebody can help me!
Thanks
Try nils in the play store.
Floatify is my favorite for notifications
Nils is working great, thanks!
I also have been looking for a lock screen replacement and after using the MotoX a bit went with ACC display and really like it so far, its very clean and minimalistic, and allows me to see all my notifications and either interact or dismiss them from the lock screen.
Might try some of the suggestions and see if anything is better.
Hi,
after I updated my P10 by OTA to Android Oreo and EMUI8, I can't get the Lock Screen notifications to work. The custom lock screen apps won't work either.
Do you have any tips on how I can get back my Lock Screen notifications?
Make sure using magazine unlock.
Go to theme app, customize, lockscreen then magazine lockscreen

Thanks for the quick reply, in fact, this seems to work with new Notifications. But previously I used Floatify, so I can see allnotifications, not only new ones.
I don't really understand why Huawei does such a thing, without the possibility to show all notifications
It's Google who's made the 3rd party lockscreen not work with the Oreo update, Huawei just are weird I assume?
And if you set it here?
How do I quick reply when I get a notification on my lock screen without unlocking my phone?
