Hi there,
Is there a theme that shows notifications on the lock screen like stock Lollipop (e.g. Nexus phones)? I think this is one of the biggest missing features of Lollipop that should have been integrated into EMUI.
Is there a way to get such a lock screen (stock Android) with possibly root, without having to install a 3rd party application?

hi, i'd like to know a way to change lockscreen
i've tried market software, as go locker and magic locker,
the first one, sometimes makes original lockscreen to appear
the second one, makes wake on a little slower
i know the best would be widget locker, but why spend 2 euros, when there isn't a 100% guarantee default locker won't appear? (in some comments on market, people say sometimes it appears)
using one of those software with a software like "no lock" or those who disable default screen, would be a good idea? there could be conflicts?
isn't there a way to eradicate lockers from framework, so problem is resolved, and those software can be used without problems?
(for what i have understood they add the lock effect to the launcher, so without a lockscreen would appear launcher directly)
i was also searching for a guide to make a customized default locker... but it seems an hard argument to find something on... couldn't find any guide on this particular problem...
i'm not just talking about wallpaper, those can be changed easily, talking about adding links to apps (dont think it would be difficult to copy the slider for unlocking, and make it an apk link or similar)
probably my searches are wrong, but i always found tutorials on how using market software like widget locker etc...
we can change anything in android, is lockscreen that hard to customize????????
thanks for replys
If you are rooted and using a CM7 based rom you can disable the default lockscreen completely so you won't have that problem widgerlocker is the best thing to use for what you are wanting. Go locker is what I use but they are still working on it and don't have custom app links

How, exactly? Would it apply to MIUI, too, which I understand is CM based?
Would this give me the option to unlock the screen only with a pattern, rather than with the MIUI unlocker first and then with a pattern?
Thanks
In CM7 you can go into CM settings--> tablet tweaks and check disable lockscreen ... I couldn't tell you about MIUI because it isn't available on my phone As far as disabling the lockscreen and still using a pattern to unlock I don't know what would happen because I don't use the pattern unlock .

Hi,
I was just wondering if it is possible , using any method/mod other than custom rom or a third party lockscreen app, to achieve a 4x4 grid or or dots for the lockscreen pattern. I have it on my custom rommed s3 but Sense is too beautiful and smooth, the reason I don't want to custom Rom my One. So anyone know if it is possible to get a 4x4 (or more) lockscreen pattern? Thanks in advance!

Probably Venom's ViperOne Rom can have such a modification.
But also there is an app:
Pattern Lock Pro
Features:
- Displays your name, phone number and email address on the lock screen so that your phone can be returned to you.
- Option to increase security with a 4x4 pattern lock.
I was thinking more of a file system edit, I don't want an app as it doesn't really do the job I want it to do.

Is there any way to get a custom lock screen? Like change the clock or clock position, maybe even a different lock screen wallpaper? Thanks in advance

i think this goes in the Q&A section. but to answer i dont think there is right now, unless you use a 3rd party app. but do people still use those anymore?
I would like a custom lock screen as well.
About as custom as ive seen is adding lockscreen shortcuts in liquidsmooth rom. I would like to be able to change the clocks color
This is something that I feel should be standard in Android, I mean at least the ability to change the wallpaper. We shouldn't have to use a 3rd app to do the basic function. I know most custom Roms enable you to do this but android is about customization.

Good day, I've noticed that while using an MP3 player I'm able to manipulate the lockscreen by displaying the album art. I'm guessing it's the same route that the Amazon ads used.
Are there any apps just for wallpapers that I can use to have a lockscreen wallpaper that's different from the home screen? Or has anyone developed any alternative way to change the lockscreen wallpaper?
Would really appreciate the help! Thanks!
I do not know of a native way to change the wallpaper on the stock lockscreen but if you aren't opposed to using a third party lockscreen, then just download one from the playstore. I currently use zui lockscreen on my BLU R1 HD. It works great and you can customize the lockscreen wallpaper to whatever you want. Just remember if you do decide to use a third party lockscreen, then you will have to disable your system lock/password/pin. Set system lock to swipe.

Yes that works but then you end up with a double lockscreen. You have to unlock custom locker and still swipe the stock locker. Which by the way still loads notifications and it just looks weird.
How do the MP3 players do it and how did Amazon? They kept the transparent stock lockscreen but displayed an image behind it.

Actually, I do not have that double lockscreen issue, at all. My current lockscreen operates as though it is the native lockscreen. Although, it would be interesting to know how the issue at hand was implemented by BLU/ Amazon. I however am just a user of cellphones, not a programmer or anything. You should try ZUI Locker and see if it does give you that double lockscreen. BTW, I'm rooted and de-bloated so I don't know if your phone still has ads being displayed. If you still have the ads, then you may still get that double lockscreen you mentioned.

you don't have the double lock screen? Is your Blu the prime version that you rooted? Can you set your stock lockscreen to "none" or just "swipe"?
I'm not seeing any ads at all anymore it's just the stock lockscreen just remained. I unlocked and rooted using @mrmazak tutorial. Which one did you use?
Edit - I tried ZUI Locker like you suggested and it WORKED!! I'm in shock. This is the first one that has managed to get rid of the stock lockscreen. Thanks a lot!
Can anyone help me out with replacing the stock touchwiz lock screen with AOSP? I'm looking for the same lock screen found in the cm14/aicp/Resurrection roms. I couldn't get bluetooth to work in my new car with any of the custom roms, so I downgraded to stock QE2, rooted, and was able to get everything back to where I want it, except the lockscreen. And I hate the touchwiz lock screen.
I found an app called kkm locker, which is an OK work around for now, but it's just an overlay and not an actual lock screen, so it causes some issues.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
