Lock Screen Widgets [Carbon ROM 4.4.2 - LG Optimus 4X HD

Hello,
today i installed the CARBON-ROM 4.4.2 on my P880 . It's a very smooth and fast ROM .
But i don't know how can i add additional lock screens and Widget to the Lock screen !!!
Hold and pulldown the Clock widget don't works .
In the settingis i found CM-Widget to set like Weathe or calender , but i don't see this on the Locksreen .
Can someone you help me ??
Thank you

Look in the settings to see if there's an option to modify the lockscreen. There you will probably have to enable something like 'custom widgets'. I'm not on Carbon myself, but I guess it should be there!

Anyway , it seems that the last carbon rom has a battery problem and the phone is getting hot while it is charging .
I will try an other rom . Do you have a recommendation

Install different lockscreens?

Hey Guys,
Looking for some new lockscreens. Would really like the froyo 2.2 lockscreen from the droid x or D2. I like the looks of those slider bars.
Does anyone know if this is available or ones like it?
I dont know if its possible to replace the actual system lockscreens ... I know that WidgetLocker has those Motorola Froyo Lockscreen Setups, but well, its a external solution, the internal Lockscreen will not be replaced at all ...
one is called Lockbot

Awesome this is exactly what I was looking for. It works great, thanks for the tip, loving my new lockscreen now.
batmania15: since the latest lockscreen gestures update (in CM 0.04-10.11.29) I'm not using the unlock bars at all. You should check it out...

I tried the lockscreen gestures but didnt like them. I had one set for S and one set for B and everytime I drew the B it launched the one for S.
The default sensitivity was set too low, you could simply fix it for you by setting it to 3 or higher.
In 0.04-10.11.29, the default is now 3.

i think widget locker is a perfect choice
i m using it since i got the phone
While Widget Locker is a nice feature to have I think the Milestone just can't handle it. 256mb and if you throw a few widgets on it or a few widgets in your Launcher Pro/ADw, your home screen will redraw 24/7. I noticed like a 2x redraw rate with WidgetLocker. It's nice, but our phones can't handle it.
Need 512mb ram damnit.
sorry to hi-jack, but aren't you the Batmania15 from the MOTO Milestone support forums?
Any word on official FroYo?
i have another sort of question about lockscreen.
is there a way to have a picture on lockscreen different to the background picture?
You can set an alternative wallpaper i widget locker for the lock screen

Nadlabak,
The gesture lockscreen is great! Thanks for this.
Is it possible to use your gestures lock instead of standard Android visible pattern functionality? I mean to secure lock screen via gesture only. I ask because if you turn it on, then you can use gesture OR standard swipe unlock (so it's not securing the phone).
Thanks in advance for any sugestions!
Yes, you can turn off standard unlock slider option in the cyanogen settings.

[Q] Changing Lock Screen in Mini S5570

Hi Guys,
I am NOOB to android and recently i have upgraded myself to Andro-ID ROM after using CM7 for a while . everything is good in this ROM except this Lockscreen which i love those CM7's ones. Anyone please throw some light to me on how to change a lock screen ??? I am unable to find an answer .. All the answer google providing me is to go for Widget Locker .Is there any way other that that ?
Thanks in advance !!!
yyeah..Widget Locker is gud if u want diff types of lock screen.. use dat..
Thanks but i am in a learning mode .. hence trying to understand how and where this locker screens are embedded inside ROM .. Hope we get some answer for that too !
What you want to do depends on exactly what it is you want to do (sounds paradoxical but hear me out).
CM7 lockscreen is the stock android lockscreen but with 2 additions, first they added the ability to see battery state always (not only when charging), the other is that they added music controls.
So if you want those features you'll have to code them yourself since they're part of Cyanogen's code.
If you want the look you'll be better using CM7 since the Rings lockscreen wasn't implemented until GB 2.3.7 and porting that would require that you build andro-id from sources.
Anyways if you want to try it, the lockscreen is contained inside /system/framework/android.policy.jar
thanks a lot .. will try and let u know guys if i am able to find anything!!!
use agile lock instead

hhhmm....
i'm newbie and want to try a widget locker
where i can get it?
Agile lock, ripple lock, widget locker, go locker (you can find this one in the go dev Web site)...
My opinion: don't use widget locker, you have to pay it and have root for some simple sliders, try and consider the others I suggest you...
For the first two: try the free version then, if you don't want to pay them, you can unlock for free just installing and running once the apps they suggest you.
Hope I've helped you man ;-)

thanks mate.. will try that soon and will update my xperience
if u want to mod the lockscreen, pull framework-res.apk from your system , in deodexed rom you can change lockscreen style (editting xml and image) without any additional apk needed.

accuweather widget vs lockscreen location updates
Same problem !
Stock Accuweather widget not updating current location, even if i force it to refresh !
whereas if u enable weather on the lockscreen ! it updates the position perfectly !! dunno what sense does it make not making the normal widget updating while lockscreen one does!!!!
anyone have a solution for this ? ive tried everything (removing,re-adding widget , removing cities in list..etc) but nothing worked.i dont recall this happens with most of the weather apps out there , my Desire HD does it perfectly with sense.
cheers
lol lock screen is working ???? this becomes really idiotic.
yup had the same problem so i switched to beautiful widgets and it works perfectly

yeah it is ridiculous !
do you have location enabled? wireless or GPS.
enable current location in the weather app only works if you have it enabled on the phone.

I find the problem, they create alot of places to feed with wheather, but it is all the same temperature, WHY THE **** ACCUWHEATHER?
Take a look in my situation, I live in Rio de janeiro and with all others apps of wheather locate me as Rio de Janeiro, JUST THE **** ACCUWHEATHER LOCATE ME AS NIGUAÇU and is a place, FAR, FAR WAY FROM ME. AT LEAST 2h by car, take a look at accuwheather map:

guess you need to check the accuweather support site as to why.
Many different weatherapps, try some

[Q] Toggle Sound On/Off ICS Lockscreen

Is there anyway to change the camera shortcut in the ics lockscreen for the sound toggle shortcut? I've seen it in roms for other devices but i dont know how they do it :/ I dont want to use any apps like widgetlocker or golocker
i hope you can help me or tell me where to look in the roms that i mentioned before
i'm using IScreamDX.
Thanks
It should be in
Cyanogenmod settings->lockscreen->style options->click on custom app starter.
Choose the app u want to show up.
Press THANKS if I tried to help...
i apologize for my english, i do my best xD but the thing i want in the lockscreen is the shortcut that switch between ring/sound mode(vibrate/ring/silent). And in Ice Cream Sandwich(4.0.4) you change the shortcuts from Settings->Interface->System (at least thats what i do). It's not an app(it can be done with apps like widget locker or golocker).
If someone can tell me where to look, or point me in the right direction XD
There is no cyanogenmod settings option in ics rom
