Same problem...
I had the same issue with Pac-Man Rom on my GT-I9105P.
Seems to occur less often after I activated the "Pinch to enable expanded desktop" option in Settings -> Pac-Man -> Home screen -> General
Don't know why, though. Just played around with some settings to see if it gets better.
This seems to be a common bug of Trebuchet.
You can completely avoid it by installing a different launcher (like Apex Launcher).
I want to thank everyone on here for the replies over the last two days on my other questions.
One thing I want is to get DashClock as the default lock screen, but I can only get it to the "screen on the right of my normal launch screen" and am unable to delete the default lock screen and make DashClock take over the "one on the left" that is the default.
Has anyone gotten DashClock to work properly with the new HTC One, and if so, please tell me how.
Thank you all,
I haven't been able to figure out how to get a different widget on the "main" homescreen, either. I was able to swipe to the left (to go right) and place a widget on that homescreen, but no way to change the default that I can see.

Not sure I understand your issue. You can remove the default widget(s) on the device by simply pressing and holding, then dragging them off the screen. You can also modify the home screens in Settings --> Personalize --> Manage Home Screen Pages. You can switch which screen is "home" and even remove a whole screen.
As far as adding apps/widgets/homescreens, just press and hold a blank space on the screen and utilize the dropdown menu.
I have Dashclock running just fine on my M8, and use it for Daydream. Only issue I don't like is that to get it to Daydream horizontally, I have to start Daydream manually with the phone horizontal. Wish it would autosense that.

Like everyone else is stating, we can add DashClock to the right, move, edit and remove the DashClock lock widget screen, but it is always to the right of the "home lock screen" thus if I want to see it I need to swipe from the very top of the lock screen to see what is to the right of it.
The "home lock screen" is unable to be "removed' since the "remove" button is greyed out for that, I can only "edit". When I want to remove or edit the DashClock lock screen both the "edit" and "remove" are available, but not on the default lock screen widget.
No one else has bene able to get DashClock on the main lock screen because I can't drag DashClock to the left, and I can't drag the home screen lock widget to the right, even though I can see both when I have DashClock "held down" to move, it just won't go to the left of the defaul "home lock screen" to then make DashClock the default view.

To tell the truth, I haven't figured out how to add widgets to the lockscreen..... I use a PIN anyway so not sure it would make a difference.
Go to Settings > Security > Enable Lock Screen Widget.
Full details...
Doesn't work you can't move or remove the main lock screen. I can edit and move and lock screens I add to the right, but not the default main one.

Any update?
Don't suppose anyone have found a solution to this?
Id would be nice to at least be able to add another widget under the stock lockscreen clock widget.
Not for dash clock but for Nils you can use the floating widget and it works fine

So has anyone figured a way to remove the crappy default lock screen widget? I don't get why anyone would want to use this ****ty one when Dashclock is far superiour.
I still can't remove the main widget OR get the Dashclock to become the main widget "on the left".
Anyone?

Well I bit the bullet and bought "Widget Locker" just so I could get a proper lock screen. Bull**** I have to pay $2.99 to get my lock screen up.
You normally have to go to Settings>Security and allow widgets first, then you can add a new one and delete the original (at least that's how you do it on the Nexus 5)

Eddy, thank you for the reply but clearly you haven't read a single thing on this thread. Anyone can add as many widgets as they want, but they can't delete the default one on the home screen, so we are stuck with it because the "remove" is greyed out for the default. I can have DashClock widget to the right of my main one, but that does no one any good.
It is impossible to remove the default widget, or move it to a position where it is not the default. The only way to get DashClock widget properly installed on this ever increasingly ****ty phone is to pay $2.99 for a program to unlock it.

Chill, dude - I had read it, just missed the bit about the stock one being greyed out, just thought you were having issues making the new one the 'home' one! Surprised HTC have done that, kinda sucks as I prefer to have Chronus as my lockscreen widget of choice...

this is the product of the f***ing Standard clock on the 1st Lockscreen page. You cannot delete it, you cannot move it to 2nd Screen, so to have a e.g. nice Dashclock, you always have to Swipe right or left.
Dirty solution atm for me is NiLS with Floating Panel on stock lockscreen. I would use the AOSP lockscreen with Dashclock (running ViperOne), but it's lacking off DoubleTap2Wake function. And after 1 week, it's a thing Icannot live without anymore
AOSP Lock Screen
I haven't tried this yet on my M8 so YMMV, but it worked for getting the AOSP lock screen on my Sense M7...requires root...

I have a Verizon LG G3, stock unrooted. It is supposed to show weather info on the locksceen or when you close the cover, using the QuickCircle case. The weather info is powered by Accuweather, but when I close the QuickCircle case, it consistently says "Set cities in weather app" and doesn't show any weather info for my phone. Looking at just the lock screen, it doesn't show anything weather related at all.
The location IS set in the Accuweather app and displays correctly on my home screen.
When I go to Settings - Lockscreen - Weather Animation - the check box isn't checked. When i click it, it asks me to add a location. I am prompted to enter a location and do so. But when i do it says that the location "already exists". That is correct - I can see that it exists in the accuweather app on the home screen, however no cities are set for the LOCKSCREEN display of the app..
Its like the lockscreen function of the app can't store or access a saved city...??
I have tried clearing the data for the Weather app, and the LG keyguard app but neither worked.
Anyone have any ideas?

ping... Help please! Someone..???
I'm not sure which is the following instructions resolved the issue, but I now have a location set for my weather on the lock screen. If you too, are having this issue try the following procedure....
1. Remove any weather widgets from your home screens.
2. Clear the cache, and data, and force stop all 3 weather related apps. To do this, go to Settings, application manager, and then flick right until you get to the list of all programs. You should see one called weather, one called weather theme, and one called weather platform. Do this for all 3 apps.
3. Turn on Location. I used the power saving mode and this worked fine.
4. Add the 2 X 1 sized widget to your home screen. Do not add the 5 by 2 widget. Click it, and set your location via the current location button. Do not manually type in a location.
5. Go back to your home screen and verify you have weather data for where you are. Then turn off your screen and verify you have weather data on your lock screen.
Hope this helps!!

turn on location and choose the one with network assist.
turn on wifi.
remove the set city.
then add your hometown and other cities.
if you want weather animations on lockscreen, enable sync.
I had set Google Now as my launcher. To fix this, I reverted back to the LG Home launcher and then tapped the large 4x2 widget which I could see caused it to automatically set to my current location. I was then able to set the weather animation on and change the launcher back to Google Now.
The instructions others provided did not work for me.

As we have swipe up to open the app draw it really makes the app draw icon a bit pointless. Is there anyway I'm missing to get rid of this to replace it with an icon for another app etc?
If you go to Settings -> Display -> Home Screen. Under Select Home, you can move the slider on App drawer icon to off
I want the function on as I prefer the slide to open the app draw however I want to remove the app draw icon.
Seems a strange immission by lg
Obviously I can use a third party launcher.

If you turn the app drawer icon off via the slider in settings, you can still slide up the to get to the apps screen. Turning that app drawer icon off does not remove the slide up to get to apps screen.
Go into settings then Display then Home Screen then tap Select Home the select Home and App Drawer then switch the the App Drawer Icon slider to off and then select OK. From there you access the app drawer via sliding up on the home screen.

Ah that's a shame , my UK SIM free phone only has the option for smart buliten as far as I can tell which is not great. Would not be so bad if you could add feeds to it like news etc but there seems to be very few options.
I've gone back to nova at the moment until this options becomes available

I don't use either. I just have my 3 personalized screens and I set it for loop. Google Feed and LG Smart Bulletin are too busy for me.
Does anyone know how to enable lock screen weather? I've never had it on the phone, but would like it.
You need a weather app and allow to push news to your lockscreen.
Settings-->Security-->Settings for Lockscreen-->Display all notifications

Add weather widget to home screen on Nokia 6.1 with Android 9.0?
I did a search for weather on Google, and came up with a standard Google weather screen. One of the options is to add widget to the home screen, however when I selected this, nothing happened.
The "At a Glance" preferences for the home screen do not include a weather option. See screenshot.
Before the phone updated to Pie, I believe the weather was part of the "At a Glance" options.
I tried installing Nova launcher, but when I attempted to add the Google weather widget, it didn't work there either. It almost seems as if Google has not coordinated two parts of their operating system to work properly together.
Can anyone else confirm this behavior, or might it be exclusive to Nokia phones?
