drop down notification in lock screen

why i can't drop down notification bar in lock screen? I'm using version 4.0.1

If you have any of the security settings on you won't be able to do use the drop down bar. You have to set it to use no unlock password.

i'm not using any unlock password. i'm using slide to unlock.

Which is there to prevent you from accidentally activate something else, like the notification bar.

one of the features of ics is being able to drag down the notification bar from the lock screen. I use slide to unlock and this feature works fine for me. to op.. are you on a custom rom?

Works for me with slide unlock as well.
I am on 4.0.3 custom rom (Axiom) though. I was not on 4.0.1 long enough to see if it worked then.

I'm using Slide to Unlock and I can pull down the notification bar on lock screen to see what's in there.

OP, try activating a secure lock method (such as password/pattern/pin) and then switching back to the slide to unlock...

my last experience is, for some weird reason, if i do not have a simcard in the phone, the notification bar will not slide down.
once i got a sim card in, it start working.

but Maybe that's why, now I have no Sim Card.

[Q] WidgetLocker messed up my notifications bar. Or am I wrong?

Hello everybody.
I am new here and I'm sorry if this has been answered already but I could not find an answer. Anyway. I installed WidgetLocker on my Galaxy Nexus but when I uninstalled it later on it left my notifications bar inaccessible from my stock lock screen. It can't be pulled down without unlocking the phone! Is there a way to fix this? It's just awful...
Edit: It can be pulled down in the WidgetLocker lock screen but I don't want to use it.

Do you have password our pattern unlock activated?
The notification bar is only accessible with slide to unlock.

Just tried it, no luck. The problem persists. I think I'll give the factory reset a try.
!EDIT!: Tried it, didn't work out.

Maybe increasing security (activate pattern/password) and then setting it back to slide unlock can fix it?

Unfortunately that was one of the first things I tried.

Why is my notification bar disabled even though I don't have that setting enabled?
One of two reasons: The Block Power Dialog option unfortunately also blocks expanding of the notification bar. The Settings help will be updated in the future to explain this. System security (pin/pattern/password) locks the notification bar itself, this is independent of WidgetLocker.
Found on their website. Don't know if this is a fix or not since I don't have widget locker installed.

Yeah, I stubled upon that too but the weird thing is that the bar is NOT disabled while using WidgetLocker but becomes inaccessible after removing or disabling the app. I'm running ICS 4.0.2 so I'll update and see what happens.

Show lock screen when security is set up.

I just installed aokp to my S3, loving it so far.
Is there a way of showing the lock screen slide to unlock when a security method is enabled? When there is no security enabled, I have the little lock at the bottom of the lock screen and can slide it to either open the camera, Google now, or to unlock the phone. When I activate a security method, that goes away.
Thanks

Any ideas ??

i used to use aokp (ics version) on the nexus s, and the functionality was definitely there. look somewhere in rom control?

Tried that but no luck. Will mess with it a bit more.
If anybody else knows how to get it working please chime in!

It looks like it hasn't been added since Aokp JB came out. Just going to have to wait.

If I am understanding correctly you want the Swipe option then you get the Password/Pin field instead of it asking for the Password right away when you turn on the screen? If so go to Settings>Security>With swipe lock

Yes, that's what I want. It turns out this version of aokp doesn't have that option implemented. Guess will have to wait to see if it gets added in future versions.
Thanks though !

totally replace lockscreen ?

hi all
is it possible to completely replace the stock lock screen with another ?
i understand you can download lock screen replacements from the play store but they don't actually replace the lock screen, on may occasions if you lock and unlock within 1 to 2 seconds, the stock lock screen appears.
is there any way around this ?

There is no way around this unless you use a custom rom or what not. Just use the lock screen replacements on the market.

Why don't you just totally disable the stock lock screen in settings and then use a 3rd party lockscreen?

Really... how the hell did I miss that. And to top it off 2 reviews commented that they were now gone. Duh...

I have the ATT Note 3 and had the same problem. I got the lockscreen shortcuts by turning off security and going in and enabling the shortcuts I wanted. I then turned security back on (in my case pattern lock) and the shortcuts stayed!

I unfortunately didn't have the same end results when doing that. When turning the pattern lock back on my shortcuts went away.

how are you guys getting the lock screen to show short cuts?
when i get to settings/device/lockscreen..there is no option for shortcuts

I only get the shortcuts when you don't use a lock screen password or pattern
