Im looking for a few features on my lockscreen that dont appear to be possible with stock att galaxy.
I would like to get more than 4 shortcut apps on the lockscreen.
I would also like an email widget and calendar widget, maybe something similar to the news widget for the jb lockscreen.
Possible?

Not without your own personal modding, or flashing something else that has it...
Widget Locker will let you place sliders, widgets, and shortcuts on your lockscreen. I've never tried it with a stock ROM, but see no reason it shouldn't work.
You can find it in the Play store.

Excellent 1st post... You get a thanks...
Yep, Widget Locker will do a lot of what you're looking for. One tip, go into your lock screen settings (in your phone settings, not in WL settings) and set it to none once you've activated WL. This will keep the odd times when your stock lock screen might appear after unlocking via WL.

Was running DC3.5. Flashed CM6.0 and still having the same behavior...
When unlocking the screen, i see a slight trace of an animated/live weather. Sort of like a sun/cloud. I can only see it vaguely though and I cant figure out what app its coming from.
Any ideas?
I'm running Beautiful Widget but the image I am seeing is like a live weather image of the sun and cloud parting ways.
Im stumped
I'm personally not using that widget but the widget I am using (Weather & Clock) has an addon with settings that animate upon unlock.
See attachment.
If you can't find it in running apps or something perhaps a complete wipe and reflash?

I owe you a beer!
I also have that widget but dont really use it as I prefer Beautiful Widgets but for some reason, not being enabled (the widget) those settings were still active. Unchecked that setting and all is well!
Thanks again!
whats up ppl i was just wondering if is it possible to have a AOSP rom wit the sense widgets (flip clock, sync all, settings, etc) cuz lets be real the AOSP widgets are wake and if it is can u tell me how to cuz im a new in this and thnx in adv.
have a wonderful day
Please use the search...
Pay version of launcher pro has widgets similar to sense with the exception of the clock.
For the clock, you need the pay versions of either Beautiful Widgets of Fancy Widgets. I know for sure Fancy Widgets has skins to make the clock look identical to the sense clock. It also has screen on animations and weather animations when you open the weather.
A number of third party messenger and calendar apps also have their own widgets.

yea i was watching a video on youtube of fancy widgets but the animation when u unlock the phone does not work right and a another Q how do u put the signature (like the one u have after the line ) in here cuz i been looking around in my profile and i dont see any part for signature
Screen unlock animation worked fine for me. I think beautiful widgets has one too. Neither are as good as sense though. Worth the sacrifice for me though since I don't really like Sense.
Look under quick links at the top of the screen. One of them is edit sig.
Hi,
I've looked everywhere for this, and can't seem to find it.
I'm looking for a very similar thing to cLock (formerly Chronus) from CM roms.
It allows not only time but weather to be shown on the lockscreen and still allow you to have security with pin or pattern locking.
I also searched through all apps/themes sections, and couldn't find this. I can't be the only one wanting password protection on a good looking lockscreen?! haha
I don't want to switch to CM rooms just for this, as I don't find them stable enough yet.
I've tried Go locker and still not getting what I's like.
I haven't tried Widget lockscreen as its not free, and I don't want to buy it and find out it doesn't have what I'd like.
Thanks for any sugestion/help..
Settled on Widgetlocker lockscreen with HD Widgets. Its beautiful, but no security. So I kept the stock lockscreen with patern. One annoyance is now I have to go through 2 screen to get to homescreen. Oh well, I can live with it.
So basically, I really wanted to install DashClock Widget. However it only works on android 4.2..... anyone know an app like that?
I like how it displays the sms count, task, weather. its super clean looking. Looking for some suggestions.
2 possible contenders
WidgetLocker and GO Locker
They'll get the job done, as long as you have the ability to remove the stock lockscreen. My Exchange account prevents me from disabling the stock lockscreen, so if I wanted to use these i would have a double lockscreen. Which would be the only thing worse than a single lockscreen.

I think he is looking for a Dashclock for 4.1.2, not a lockscreen.
I too would like to find something like this. One More Clock Widget has some of the features and having some very clean options.
Check out "cLock Weather Widget UCCW skin"

Hey,
I noticed that even though I have installed plenty of widgets, the only ones that show up on the lockscreen are the ones who come up by default from Google's applications... is this supossed to be like this, or am I missing something?

Pretty sure app developers need to make widgets available as lock screen widgets. Not all of my home screen widgets are available when adding a lock screen widget. For example, One Weather has 5 home screen widgets, and only 3 of those are available as lock screen widgets.
