Is there any way at all to change the recent app list from horizontal to vertical? Willing to try any mod if there are any available. Thanks in advance.
Edit: I also have the snapdragon version.
Rotation lock on then turn phone 90 degrees ;-)
If you use Good Lock the Home Up module recently had an update that added a Task Changer. This new Task Changer allows you to display the recent apps in grid, list and stack layout. I've been using the new grid layout for a while now. There used to be a separated Good Lock Module that had similar functionality.

Dear All,
I just published my first module on xPosed. Don't be hard with me if there are any trouble. However if you describe the bugs, I would be glad to solve it. I have done a few set of test on my Nexus 5 but it should works on any device with stock Android Lollipop. This module allows you to change the two shortcuts on the stock lockscreen.
You can use this thread if you have any question or feedback about the module.
PS: English is not my native language, please don't mind for the spelling & grammar mistakes.
UPDATE 12/03/2016:
A new module is available to do the same thing but on Marshmallow devices (HERE)
Changelog 2.1 :
-You can change the color of the ClockView, Icon Tint, ...
-You can resize the icons
Changelog 2.0 : (Due to deep changes, you may need to reinstall the app or reselect your shortcuts after update)
- You can now use « real android shortcuts » (like google maps route, voice recognition, inbox reminder,…)
- You can choose your icon directly from your gallery
- Improved some interface details (Better material design integration)
- Minor bug fixes.
Changelog 1.2 :
- Minor bug fixes.
- You can now activate or deactivate shortcuts
- Tablet support for the left shortcut (I do not have any tablet to test so I hope it works :\, just tell me if it’s not)
Changelog 1.1 :
- Improved some interface details and minor bug fixes.
- Bug about the camera preview when you launch a shortcut fixed
- You can now edit the text which appear when you hit a shortcut on the lockscreen
- You can now activate or deactivate the “natural white tint” of the icon shortcut on the lockscreen
-List of apps sort by alphabetical order
Works great on my HTC One M7 running CM12 and Xposed, thanks! Been looking for a way to do this.
Love how it changes the icons and makes them white. Have it set to whatsapp and chrome atm
Tried on my M7 too and it works
But I found that if I click on an icon instead of swiping the tip is in your language (I think..) like "balayer l'ecran vers la droite"

Thanks guys for feedback, I appreciate.
I know it is in french and I'm sorry about that. My first goal was to make a module as quickly as possible to change shortcuts on the lockscreen. However I work on an update which enable you to customize this text.
Works great on my m7 with gpe lollipop.
But would it be possible to add a option to choose a image or color instead of what can be seen on the attached pictures?
It's kinda odd to see the grey screen with a camera symbol while opening WhatsApp
Thanks alot, will definitely keep an eye on this!

Yeah I know that's really strange. OP can't you set it to be just like the left shortcut? The left shortcut (previously the phone shortcut) does not have this problem and it has a nice transition
I'm on it. I will try to publish an update before the end of the week-end
New update 1.1
Would you be able to add the ability to change the lockscreen wallpaper? There's no easy way to change just the wallpaper on the lockscreen, while having the main wallpaper be different.
Will be able to add a shortcut left from the tablet in the future?
Great job on this mod! I only want 1shortcut with the other shortcut set as NONE. Is there a way to do that? Thanks
It would be amazing if you could implement slim lock screen shortcuts :fingers-crossed:
Is it possible if you can make it able to change lockscreen clock as well?
Nice module, great work!!!
Would be nice if you can select a shortcut instead of an app, for example a shortcut to a tasker task.

Currently my workaround is to set my launcher (nova) as app for the shortcuts, so that after unlocking, it will go straight to the homescreen. Not a perfect solution, because unlocking still takes longer because of the app starting process (which also seems to take longer with this module if I choose the contact app compared to the stock setting with the contact app) :/
Funny, it seems most people here want LESS from the lockscreen, while I want more.
I don't know exactly how you would do it with the current setup, but I would love something akin to the lock ring targets found in 4.x roms. I loved being able to launch right into 5 or 6 programs right from the lockscreen. I've tried so, so many third party ones but none of them have the same ease of use or functionality that the stock one employs while also being a seamless experience.
With that being said, I would obviously love if someone were able to get more targets (an idea that I had was to start to pull up and THEN have the targets appear above or something, but I don't know how feasible this is)

I don't have a problem with shortcuts on the lockscreen, I just have a problem with the way they are implemented in Lollipop. For unlocking you have to swipe up, but I usually swipe kind of diagonal from down left to up right (seems to be a habit from kitkat and prior). That works like 90% of the time. In 10% I accidentally open the dialer, which is very annoying, since it costs time.
Thats why I want to kill the dialer shortcut
Now that you mention it I had that problem when I started to use Lollipop with that. At this point it's mostly resolved but every now and again I do end up going straight into an app
If you are using pin or pattern lock, every time you need to swipe up first to input the unlock pattern, is there a way to default to input pattern? And swipe down if I want to go back to the lock screen? I wish Google made the shortcuts optional....
navigation bar
hello, my new phone just arrived.
i'd like to enable the navigation bar (software buttons) to give some rest to my thumb (less vertical movement).
I'd accept even an app if it's going to work like the original one, that is: to "dock" on the bottom of the screen, actually making the viewing screen smaller.
Yes, I'm ok to sacrifice screen space.
I tried few apps and they overlap the content of the screen, actually preventing me to see or tap on important parts.
Is there any non-root method? or any rooted method?
Any help is appreciated
in the end i decided to root and use the build.prop method.
Very nicely working, only minor problem found is with original camera app: the navbar doesn't hide and overlaps some controls.
I guess the problem to exists because samsung's apps don't care about the navbar, none of their phone have it.
I tried to first solve with tasker, but the plugin i bought (for the action was missing) didn't work. (refunded)
Then i searched for an xposed module, and found this "force immersive mode". Much better, but the controls are still cut in a half.

So I've been experimenting with the Tasks Edge Panel and I've come across a problem. I want to add shortcuts like driving directions created as a widget from the Google Maps app. The issue is that I can only add them to the panel if they exist on my home screen somewhere. If I delete the widget from my home screen then they disappear from the panel. Not much point in having the shortcut on the panel if I have to have it somewhere else too.
Any suggestions would be great. Thanks
No suggestion, but this has been fixed, for a certain value of fixed, in the October 2018 security update.
If you reset your phone, your shortcuts will be stuck in the Tasks Edge settings, and you will not be able to remove them. New entries will disappear just like always.
I ended up just using a different edge panel that is for widgets only. It's a 3rd party add on but it works ok

Coming from Oxygen, there's still a lot of visual stuff I dislike about One UI, though I will say, it's FAR better than the last Samsung I used which ran TouchWiz.
Running Nova and Theme Park to get things looking/running the way I generally prefer.
The one last piece that I really dislike but can't find a complete solution for is the Task Manager. I have Home Up running, but the part that annoys me is the Recent App shortcuts. They appear to be randomly generated, and the icons are horrific and cartoony. I just don't like it.
Is there an alternative or way to just turn the recent app shortcuts off? Screenshot attached for clarity.
Home up, task changer, disable "hide search bar"
Enter recents, three dots menu in search bar, settings, disable "show recommended apps"
Now you can hide search bar again

I actually discovered that RIGHT as I got a notification of your reply.
Big thanks for chiming in.
While I still generally think One UI < Oxygen, with enough tweaks, I can deal.
Question for you OP. How'd you get home up working while using Nova. None of the settings seem to stick when changing task manager using goodlock homeup when move is set to default.

there is a recent update to One UI Home that fixed that issue for me with lawnchair.
if youre not getting it through samsung, you can sideload it from here: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...rience-home-touchwiz-home-12-1-05-11-release/
you also may or may not have to update home up.

Thanks that worked! Looking clean now. I also hated the suggested apps at the bottom. I use a higher dpi and that was not affected by the dpi change. So it looked even worse on my phone. They looked huge compared to everything else.

Hi there
I was wondering if there is any way to apply the new homeup with the task changer on one ui 2.5 or any other good lock plugins for that matter
Samsung is only updating them for android 11 and was really hoping to get them on my phone
BTW I have a note 9 so no updates for me
Samsung released their major update for GoodLock and the associated widgets this morning (i got them in UK at least anyway)
The new HomeUp is great ... adds a major element which makes the app tray so much nicer ... VERTICAL scrolling in one long list instead of pages.
I already really like the ability to make the home screen & folders support many more rows/columns -- but this no more horizontal app tray = best bit ever
Makes OneUI finally for me a decent launcher
Why they just don't incorporate GoodLock and the extras into the main codeline i have no idea
What version of GoodLock and HomeUp do you have?
About the vertical scrolling, I can't the "priority app list" on the top of the drawer, why they didn't add a switch for that... Anyway I'm back to Nova hehe

All good lock new modules are now up on apkmirror
Thx 4 info but I need patched one from here https://downloads.corsicanu.ro/GoodLock/12/
EDIT: patched new versions are available. I had hoped for option to remove priority app list but not this time (again)
I use Fine Lock, it's a Good Lock launcher that lets you launch any module and it comes with some additional features like customizing the UI of the app and let you know when a module has been updated.

Yeah, so good change but still unusable, why the hell that part is not optional as it take nearly half of the screen -.-
They even fixed my problem of being unable to save and restore setups - something triggered by the OneUI 4.0 update. Finally sorted out.
Agreed that most of the HomeUp features should be integrated in Home UI settings. I guess Samsung thinks users would be overwhelmed if they cram all the options in.
