Hi Folks,
I own a Wildfire S with the new Update and new Lockscreen (Ring-method).Thats fine so far. But the Lockscreen looks very empty. Is there a way to get more infos like weather, Appointments, mails or something else on the Lockscreen without rooting or any other deeper Hack?
And by the way: I find the Android-Homescreen is not used cleverly. There is to much space between the Apps or Widgets. Is there a way to get them closer, so more widgets and apps can be applied on the Homescreen?
Thx so far for your replies

First questions answer is no, can't be done.
Second is download something like ADW.Launcher from the android market Google Play Store (man I hate that name) and set the rows and columns to 5x5.

Updated the stock ROM to android 2.3.5.
Well I have virgin mobile wildfire s and it says there's no update. Is there any way you can provide the update for me like the link or something?
Is there any way to replace the icon for this widget, or an app that will give me a widget with a similar function (instant back light)?
The default one is a huge ugly widget and I want a smaller or customisable widget to replace it with.
Cheers
The 15 toggles mod has a button for flashlight.
Tesla Led
Tesla Led is best!

Tesla Led has a delay when turning it on. Rather than using a new light app, where can I get a custom widget for the stock light app?

same thing, I just tried tesla, and it does have a delay, the stock one is perfect, it's has instant response time, I used a launcher that allowed me to resize it to 1 square, but the text and lamp icon gets all weird... If I can remove the text and keep the lamp in the middle... this widget would be perfect...
So any idea how to change the icon for that widget?
Opposite...
I actually want the S3 assistive light because it doesn't block the camera like the 1000 other flashlight apps.

Did you ever find a solution? I also wish to use stock widget for its performance, yet it is big and ugly. Basically, I want a 1x1 widget for stock light.

Just use a different launcher (I use Nova personally, but I expect many others will offer the same functionality here), and use that to either resize, or replace the icon.
Another option is to use a ROM like (the fantastic) UltimaROM that has a flash-light option on the drop-down notification area.

Hello.
How do you change the icon from Assistive Light with Nova Launcher? I also use it but when I hold the widget to change the icon, like for the other apps, the AL doesn't have the opt to change icon.
Is there any other way?
All other widgets for the AL break the camera.

Where is the assistive light widget located? It's included on 4.1.x roms, but not on 4.2.2

I use a stock one 4.1.2 but on the Widget List, check under "Settings". It should have around 6 Widgets inside.

I moded the widget to look like the s4 and s5
Give it a try.......

Yes, with Nova it is possible to scale it.
Try the app QuickShortcutMaker --> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut&hl=de
should be the right for you.

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.
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"

Is there a way to reply directly from the lockscreen without unlocking the phone?
Tried the stock touchwiz messaging app, seems only to show the preview
I tried floatify but couldn't manage to set it up for this purpose.
Google's Messenger almost works. On stock lockscreen I can't add its widget, but on the notification bar I can reply. Anyone know how I can add widgets to lockscreen?
Did you search another lockscreen app which allows widget? Like this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker

Just tried a few. Stock, CM Locker, Next Lock Screen.
None seem to allow me to quick reply from the lock screen, with the stock messenger app or with Google's Messenger.
