Has anyone had problems with the lock screen widgets. I apply a widget but my phone won't unlock. When I swipe to unlock it just go right back to the lock screen. It just loops over and over. The only way to unlock the phone is to swipe on one of the shortcuts on the bottom of the screen to go to app from the shortcut but not the home screen.

No problems here....which widget did you use? I just used Google Now Cards and its working for me just fine.
Yep, happened to me too with dashclock widget. Will download a new lock screen to try. Probably a stock android one on the play store.

Looks pretty bad yeah, I used the analog clocks instead, still doesn't look good. But the problem is the widgets are not clickable. I read something about them not being scrollable too, which may explain why they're not clickable. I'm looking for a lock screen replacement that allows for widgets but no dice yet. Only that ugly lockscreen widget app.

Yep, that's what I mean. That's the problem I'm getting. They offer like 7 different lock screens yet they don't offer the stock android one. Still looking for a replacement lock screen. If anyone has any ideas let me know.

To add lockscreen widgets, go to settings > personalize > lock screen and change it to widgets
Any widget I used gets stuck in a loop and I can't unlock the phone. I had "battery widget reborn" and when I try to place it even on the home screen it locks the screen and it gets stuck. Maybe it's a bug in "battery widget reborn"?

I noticed to get the widgets to work, you have to drag down on the widget (you'll see a blue box being dragged down,) then you should be able to use it.
I ended up getting widget locker. It's actually pretty awesome. Thanks to HTC's 25 bucks haha. 3 bucks ain't so bad either. Now I have a stock lock screen with better widget support.

I figured out the problem. I had to uninstall "battery reborn" app. It was causing a glitch in the lock screen. My widget now works like it should.

I can't seem to find a way to disable the weather and calendar widget on the lock screen. I have Exchange setup where I'm using Xposed to bypass the Exchange security requirements. Am wondering if this the cause of the widget showing up. Anyone having this same issue?

Do you want to remove it? Hold and drag down then hold the middle of the widget and you'll see a remove icon at the top appear.

I have tried that and holding the widget does not do anything on the lock screen. I want to remove it and just simply display a clock.

Its in settings/device/lockscreen/ clock widget options . Just set weather to never update, and uncheck dual clock and date.

Thanks for answering, but that's the first thing I did when I got the phone. I have checked all settings and can't seem to find out why it keeps appearing.

Settings > Device Tab > Lock Screen > Multiple Widgets (first option) to ON
then you can manipulate your lock screen widgets, including removing the stock one I believe, I use dashclock
edit: just tried it and turns out it just pops back up automatically if you try to remove it, sorry about that!
Yeah that's how I did mine you must got a bum device.

Did you change dpi settings? That will make it show up all the time.

I had trouble with this too. Every time I removed it it would come right back the next time I unlocked my device.
Make sure you have multiple widgets enabled. Then add a 2nd widget (mine was dashclock).
I actually had to turn off all notifications for the stock messaging app in order to make sure that widget went away completely. Also go into the settings of the messaging app and disable the alerts from showing up on the lock screen. Not sure why that fixed it for me but it did...
+1 on this can you also just disable the notification on the lockscreen and just have text notifacation appear in status bar ? I want to delete the weather widget and have just daskclock on my lockscreen . Lockscreen notifications show over daskclock covering it up

Yeah I think I can emulate the original posters issue. Basically he and I did what others mentioned. However when I swipe left then right again, I still see weather widget and notification widget etc. Even after draging them to remove.
My bad I meant can you also just disable lockscreen popup notifications and only have status bar notification?I also want to know a way to get rid of the weather/calendar /time widget and have it come back.

I havent been able to find the right app for it. I think its tied into the system ui. I did find a work around though. If you enable a pin code and set it to secure after an hour of inactivity it will disable the weather widget and only ask you for the code after a prolonged break in using your phone. Ive been doing it for a few days now and its only asked me for the pin like 5 or 6 times. Not nearly as annoying as that widget though haha

Yeah, I changed the DPI via build.prop and now they appear all the time as you said...
Any way to fix that? (maybe somehow using xposed app settings?)
If anyone is interested in just having a plain lockscreen wallpaper like myself(no weather no clock) just simply enable multiple widgets and delete the clock and add Invisiwidget from Google Play and you're all good.

I only found a workaround by setting pin code security and set my phone to lock after an hour. I use my phone so often it very rarely asks me for the code and I haven't noticed any negative battery life from it

I just figured out how to do it. There should have been a setting under lock screen that disabled the widget but in my lock screen settings it only asks what preferences I want. The weather widget on mine said AccuWeather.com on it so I searched for that and found it in my widgets that came on the ROM, ie you can't uninstall it. My device is rooted so I used one of those app freeze apps to locate the widget and disable it. Restart phone, all good. The app I used was called disable manager. The icon is a green android with a No symbol in front of it. It gives you two lists, one apps, the other system processes. The widget was under System tab under the name weather widget. Hope that helps. Took me a couple weeks to figure that out!
So I searched for some cool stuffs about Doctor Who but only found some booting animations. But I wanted something for my homescreen. But ther's nothing like this. So I decided to make my own with UCCW.
I finished the door side and now i need ideas for the left,right and backside of the TARDIS.
Any ideas or advices how I can improve it are welcome.
Now I want to know what you guys think of it.
If there's interest I'll share it when I finished it.
Btw. Is it possible to change the app drawer background with nova launcher? Because I can't do it with apex launcher.
Very cool +1
Does the background come with the skin?

Hi all,
I added the Google Experience Launcher after the last search update. While playing around I added a home screen. Anybody know how to remove it once it's added?

Shure go to settings, find "apps" there you can find your GEL browser, delete it and your back to stock

Ah, sorry, I wasn't clear. I'm not trying to remove the launcher apk, I added a home screen to the right when I was playing around with the Google Experience Launcher, I just want to remove that extra home screen so I have the main one and Google Now to the left. Adding the extra home screen was easy, but I can't figure out how to remove it.

Ok so I feel like a total noob here but I can't seem to find my live wallpapers. I have installed them but in the wallpapers tab in settings they are not there to select.
Can anyone point this fool in the right direction? Thanks, and I appreciate your time in advance.

IIRC if you have it set for the lock screen only it won't show the live wallpaper. You can only put live wallpapers on the home screen or home screen AND lock screen.

I looked for that option, used to be in the upper right corner, but it's not there anyone. Just have no clue on this live wallpaper thing.

As far as I can tell, they've separated the lockscreen from the home screen. You can set live wallpaper on the home by opening the lw app, but lockscreen is still a mystery for me. Pissing me off

I got my live wallpaper working by going through themes. I found a theme I liked and applied it...live wallpaper came with the theme.... after I went back in and just changed the homescreen wallpaper to my liking leaving the live wallpaper on the lockscreen
has anyone found any live wallpapers that actually show as options under ''My Wallpapers" in "Wallpapers and Themes"? I was thinking it might be some apps that need an update because of some new system change Samsung's put in place but... if no Live Wallpapers at all are being recognised then they might just be trying to scrap the feature?? we shouldn't have to settle for a theme's live wallpaper as the only way to get one on the lock screen....
Having the same problem been trying to figure it out for HOURS lol..

I've downloaded a few themes from the theme store on my s7e which have "animated" or "live" lock screen wallpaper, and when you go to the lock screen it's just a black screen, nothing.
Black luxury has an aNimated lock screen wallpaper. It's very nice
