So I found this app in the Market, and it runs pretty smooth on the Nexus 4, however does anyone know of any other one that will allow me to put a picture on my lockscreen?

Most Custom ROMs can Now change your Lock screen pictures.
Have you tried just Custom ROMs?

Yes I'm running CM10.1 and see no option in lock screen settings. Any suggestions to another room that has this?

I believe Xylon, JellyBeer, AOKP have working options. I would look into Xylon and JellyBeer. These are my 2 preferred. Both Highly customizable.

I found that maybe your perfect match would be Xylon. Has Lock Screen Transparency, Custom Wallpaper Setting for Lock Screen. All working. Tested myself.
Good Luck!

with widgetlocker you can set your own picture. but with both lockscreen apps the softkeys stay visable and can unlock the lockscreen
hope to see a solution for this in near future
Am running xylon and using active lockscreen .also have my pictures in the lockscreen

You can hide the softkeys......on widgetlocker easily.
Go into advanced settings and then under root helper.

Hi all
Is there a quick toggle mod for the notification drop down menu like found on stock TouchWiz and Sense devices? Not looking for widgets on the "desktop"
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
You can try Widgetsoid in the Market. It will allow you to place themed toggles in the notification area without a widget. Just make sure you select "hide widgets".
That could work, however, I was looking more for a hard mod that could be flashed in there, like in past devices that I've used that didn't feature this by default (back in the Sense 2.1 days).
Like this? Its available on this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1383210

I haven't seen a separate mod. You can always ask the rom developer to make a flashable zip for you.

Yes, as long as the major toggles are all there (wifi, bt, gps, etc...) that is exactly it. Of course, on Touch Wiz, it's just one horizontal line of toggles (like the widget on the Nexus), and that is the cleanest. On sense 3.0, it's a vertical list of toggles.

I tried turning on the notification toggle in widgetsoid, it doesn't even show up for me.
Also, seeing how the music player can have different buttons in the same row, I don't see why it can't be possible for other apps to use this functionality too.
Edit: Widgetsoid works perfectly, almost exactly the same as the CM toggle bar (sans the side scrolling)
Someone should be able to make a new app for ics,
you can add buttons in the dropdown now so it should be possible with out a custom rom or even root
Is this what you are looking for?

"With this app, you can place different toggles into your Android status/notification bar for quick access without having a dozen toggle-widgets on your homescreens
You can choose which toggles to display in the settings of the app. You can also choose to combine different toggles into one "all in one" notification.
Unfortunately, on most devices you can only define one action per notification, so on these it will show a small dialog with the available toggles when clicking on the "all in one" notification. But some devices (seems like all devices with HTC Sense ROM) can distinguish where in the notification you clicked and on these you don't have to see the dialog.
The app is for free in the Android market, would be nice to get some feedback"
Is there a way to edit the shortcuts on my lock screen to make them spread out more? They seem to be bunched up in the middle a little bit. Maybe its for one hand use?....but I think it makes me have to aim more closely when I am quickly trying to access my music player...or camera.

I'm on the official tmo jb, but it should be the same. It bunches up the icons on the lockscreen if you have less than 5. Go into the lockscreen settings and add another shortcut.

Hi guys!
I am looking for the old original stock lock screen from 4.1 (like in the screenshot). For me is the new one terrible and I was wondering if someone can make a MOD or gave me a hint, how can I do it myself. Sadly I am a noob and I can only root my phone and flash some roms and mods. I am not looking for the Holo Locker or other app. Just want the poor old stock lock.
Can someone help me pls?
Thanks in advance!
I would love to see this as an option in future Custom Roms. Lockscreen widgets always seemed superfluous to me
You can use Widget Locker to set up your lock screen like that. I actually use Widget Locker to get a look similar to the 4.2 stock look on CM 10.1 since the CM one isn't quite the same as the stock one.

I opened a thread showing how you can put anything you like on your stock rom lockscreen using UCCW w/o requiring root or BL unlock; look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2081338&nocache=1 The only thing I haven't yet found how to do on stock rom is change the lockscreen wallpaper.

Beat me to it! I tried it on both my Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 a while back and it worked as expected. However, I disable my lock screen using Lockscreen Policy so to me it's a non-issue with the 4.2 lock screen.
You can try Holo Lockscreen app from the play store.

Have you not tried xylon ROM? Or a few others that have lockscreen targets? You can set it up just like that.

Yes, I've tried the most of the ROMs, but nothing works so gut Iike the stock one. Sadly I can not get, what I want, because the my rom is odexed too...
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I'd like to see the developers given an option in their ROMs for turning the lockscreen widgets on and off. I know for me right now my problem with them is if I try to check my notifications I find myself missing the drag point for the notification bar and then I end up expanding the widget. Very, very annoying.
Yes, a mod like this would be good. I especially hate how Poweramp shows up on lock screen on 4.2. Its like a small ugly box on lock screen. 4.1 lock screen had it perfect.

You can use this if you want to disable lock screen widgets and camera...
It does not give you 4.1's lock screen but gets rid of your lock screen widgets...

No. You are actually replacing the whole lockscreen framework. It would be nice if it was an .apk though.
Lock screens are really hard to port. Like to the point older samsung phones can't even get the water ripple lockscreen. Only jelly bean ones and that's only cuz you can change a line in the build prop.

Try Paranoid Android, I'm not sure if they have a 4.3 Version yet, but they usually have options like that.
Xenonhd also have some great customization options, but they are still on 4.2
You could also go to settings>security>screen lock and set it to none. This will basically make your device open to the home screen when you press the power button, skipping the lock screen entirely

Almost all custom ROMs have that option. And when you set a lockscreen wallpaper, it shouldnt have an overlay on top of that. Maybe its an issue with your ROM. I dont use that one.

I'm on Carbon ROM and I just tried a custom lockscreen wallpaper. The wallpaper was no darker than the original image. So, as I said, it may be your ROM.
