Im currently on One UI 2.1 using Nice lock (good lock not available in my country, but its the same thing).
My goal is to get a completely clean and immersive lock screen. Lockstar has let me remove everything from the lockscreen except for the status bar. Quickstar has let me remove the time from the status bar on lockscreen, but it doesnt allow me to remove the other icons from only the lock screen. It does let me remove them completely, but i want them to stay when the phone is unlocked.
Surely it has to be possible to set some condition that they only disappear when locked?
Or is there any other way to achieve this?
(im fine with the finger print icon as it gets used)

I was wondering if there is any way to hide the taskbar when the screen is locked, but have it shown when using the phone. It would make my phone look absolutely amazing. I'm using the clear lockscreen mod, with the Sprint banner replaced by a space. If there is a way to do this, it would basically make the phone a digital picture frame with a clock on it. See the screen for what I mean.
I didn't want a new thread, but is there any way to extend the timer before the screen turns off before you unlock the device?

Are you talking about the screen timeout? menu - settings - display?
No, I mean the base slide lock screen, from when you first turn on the device. Is there a way to control how long it will display the clock and wallpaper before turning the screen off due to no entry?
Is there a way to have the "swipe" lockscreen wall paper enabled when a lockscreen (pin/password) is turned on?
I like the Samsung wallpaper lockscreen. I also like to keep my phone locked with a pin/password as well.
I want to know if I can have both enabled and functional ?
Thanks.
ummm, I'm not sure what you mean?
You want the Samsung lockscreen (the one where you drag the static wallpaper) AND the pin/pattern lockscreen enabled simultaneously?
I wouldn't think you could.... This doesn't make much sense (no offense), or I am confused.
The Samsung lockscreen is nice (visually) but offers no security. You swipe and it goes away. But I DO like the way it works (swipe wallpaper) AND need security.
Just curious.
Android 2.3.x only lets you do this when your using the the pin lock. When you use the pattern lock it wont let you use both. So change your security to pin and ull see both the swipe screen and then the pin screen. Least thats how it worked on mine when i had it.
Hello,
I was a bit surprised when I found out that I can pull down my status bar while my s4 mini is locked - on my old s3 it was not possible.
It seems to me that it doesn't match the use of a lockscreen...
Can I anyhow deactivate this?
Thanks!

If you use a password/pin/pattern lock, that should disable the pull down.

Just tried - yes, that works... thanks! But can you tell me why it is possible if I don't use it?
Its always possible if you don't have a secure lock screen. It's been like that on my previous Galaxy S phones including the S3. I think its just so you can view any notifications without the need to unlock the device that's all.

Well... I think it a design decision by Google... No secure lock = access to your phone anyways = why bother, let have pull down menu enabled....
I also wish there was a feature to disabling it with insecure lockscreen...
AFAIK, This has been a feature of Android starting from Ice Cream Sandwich. If you don't have a secure lockscreen, then the statusbar can be pulled down in the lockscreen
If you'd rather not have a lock pin then you can use a 3rd party lock screen app like widgetlocker. I use it with its roothelper feature to disable the notification curtain when locked.
Now if only Kevin would add this feature to Nova Launcher so my kids couldn't change any of my settings! Come on Kevin!

Hey guys, I'm looking for a rather particular lockscreen that I just can't seem to find. I'm wondering if anyone on here could help me find a good one. Features I'm looking for:
-some form of security (PIN or pattern)
-SMS notifications at the LEAST (compatible with third party texting apps like Textra). I would prefer to have all notifications available on my lockscreen, but I can live with just SMS.
-Integrated music controls
-Custom screen timeout time
-Elegant looking
So far the closest I've found was ACDisplay, but there's a couple of things I don't like about it. Firstly, having to click a notification to view it defeats its purpose. I want to be able to glance at my phone to see who texted me without having to touch it. Also, every so often I'll get the "swipe down to exit full-screen mode notification." Snaplock came close, but the music integration is sub-par and there lacks custom screen timeout. Anyone have ideas?
try "My Locker"..............................limit is your imagination only

I guess you are on kitkat or below, as the G3's Lollipop lockscreen does feature notifications! As well as optional security (pin, knock code, facial recognition) and looks quite minimalistic. So if you're not on Android L yet, you coukd give it a shot otherwise I recommend the same locker as stated in the previous comment:good:
I don't agree. LG's 5.0 lockscreen is terrible. Notifications might display, but you can't open them when you tap on lockscreen like you do on stock android, but you have to unlock the screen, pushdown notification tray and then click notification (wtf LG?). The second killer of LG's 5.0 lockscreen is that when you put swipe to unlock, sometimes it fails to unlock. Even though I swipe, the screen stays locked and you have to swipe again to unlock. That happens to me in 20% of unlocking screen so I removed lockscreen altogether and now found third party lockscreen which isn't much better, but at least it unlocks when I swipe it.

About notifications....
Actually, coming from Nexus 4 with Lollpop, I was dissapointed to see my new LG G3 having trouble with notifications:
Lockscreen always show notifications, BUT swiping left or right doesn't open the corresponding app (ex. dialer for unanswered calls), NEITHER double clicking on the notification does... INSTEAD I have to click one time the notification and after that swipe the lower part of the lockscreen to unlock and go to the corresponding app... It just feels akward to me... Any solutions?
And something else: sometimes when i swipe down the notification bar, i can see the app name and instead of the message i see: hiden content!!! But this is not all the times... Do you believe i have something wrong on the settings?
Thanks in advance...

Unlocking the phone, right after tapping a notification opens that notification for me. Seems a little odd but I've gotten used to it.
Not using any PIN/Knock/Pattern.
Hi,
I managed to get rid of the swype screen action with xposed and managed to get also the quick unlock feature as one can find it in the Iphone.
BUT, now with lollipop there is not CLOCK on the pin code lock screen.
So if I whant a clock I need an aditional lock screen that I have to swype just to unlock the phone?
Is there any way to get a clock on the pin screen or at least to see the status bar with the time, signal, battery..?
TY
