I'm aware that in the swipe lockscreen if you pull down the notification bar, you'll get music controls. But, why does TouchWiz make you go the extra route when every other ROM simple puts it right there when you wake the screen up?
Is there anyway that we can start incorporating this feature in the future on the swipe lockscreen?
The pattern unlock has it on the lock screen.

I know. But, I'm making emphasis on the swipe lockscreen since it has the app shortcuts. I'm just wondering if anybody is interested in adding back a feature that was taken off.

Hello!
I wonder if there is a way to add a gesture on Sense 4.X so I can shutdown the screen in simple finger slide?
Back in N1 times,I used to use swipe down gesture(ADW launcher) linked to ''screen off''' app so the screen turned off with style!
Now with Sense launcher can I do the same?
I found an app for gestures but it doesn't accept simple gesture like swipe down/up

Hey,
The ViperX rom has a gesture option in the suite tools. You can set three-finger gestures for sliding up, down left and right.

true but you will need a screen-off app or script to be triggered by the gesture
Edit: tryed it out with "screen off and lock" app from market and works pretty well.
After configuring the app and Venom tweaks app : 3-finger swipe-up remapped to custom app (screen off), at any screen/app swipe up 3 finger and the phone will turn the screen off with a cool animation (i chose slide up to match gesture), then phone locks immediately (i dont prefer this)
Yeah I saw this but it's really weird to use the 3 fingers, I feel like a cat
I hope they will find a solution for one finger only
Edit: Sry never mind..Sense.. mist that part
Why would you want it with one finger? Then when youre reading something and your scrolling up or down your screen will go off..

Not for any games or apps but only for homescreens
There's a great app that you can define whatever gesture you like
and asign it to close the screen or even kill the using app

I'm not sure about the second question, but for the first:
You must have enabled custom lockscreen targets in settings -> rom control -> lock screen accidently, this removes google now and camera from the lockscreen, you can reset this by going to custom targets and pressing the reset button in the top-right corner
Good luck, Jake
Edit: for the third question, what's your input language?

All this is done on your lockscreen:
Touch the clock and swipe down. An ^ arrow will appear at the bottom
Swipe right and you should see a box with a +
Tap the box.
Choose your widget (you can only choose certain widgets. Not all widgets available for your home screen are available on lockscreen)
To add another, do the same, but swipe past the existing widgets.
To rearrange your widgets, long tap the widget and move left/right.
NOTE: the widget to the farthest right will always show on your lockscreen by default when turning the screen on.
If the ^ is present on the lockscreen and you want to unlock it, tap the ^ and unlock like normal.
** All this is assuming you are just using the normal swipe to unlock. Not the unlock pin, or something like that. I don't use that stuff, and it's all similar to do, but may be slightly different.

Stock KK from LG to model E980?
is there any way to add any shortcuts on lockscreen. So far 4.4.4 has only the camera, but would also like to have e.g. flashlight
You can add shortcuts/widgets by swiping to the right on the lock screen. I don't see camera as an option

I have the camera Icon on the buttom and can use it. But I cannot add any more shortcuts when I swipe on the button in any way. What I can do is to set widgets in the upper time Screen by wiping to the right and add a widget (but also no apps), but not on the buttom. Want to Setup the flashlight on locscreen
Is it possible to remove the shortcuts on the lock screen? Extremely annoying when you launch apps instead of unlock your phone.
You know you don't have to touch the lock icon right? You can literally swipe the very top of screen to unlock.

In order to change the lock screen, you need to change the apps on the Sense home screen bar. I just tested. Delete the apps from the bar at the bottom of the Sense Home screen and that will remove them from the lock screen.
