Hey there
I'm using the Glass Widget Clock / Weather
I really like the way it looks but I have a pretty big problem.
In the settings I'm only able to change the update interval between Never, Once or Twice a day.
But Twice a day isn't enough in my opinion. Is it possible to change the interval?
I know that you can change the widget skin but I don't know how to change the way the widget operates.

Is it possible to have upcoming events from the calendar on the lockscreen?
I'd like to keep teh TW lockscreen.
Maybe via modding? eg replacing the stocks ticker or the news ticker?
Does anyone know if this would be possible?
up , i need this option

I know you want to keep the TW lockscreen...but alternatively, I use Widget Locker lockscreen with Android Agenda Widget. (back since my HD2 days)
TRUST ME...I have owned widget locker for several years and watched it progress. It runs absolutely FLAWLESS on my S3. It has TONS of options/switches to make your every scenario happen without glitches. And there are so many choices for sliders etc.
Anyway, Agenda Widget has many options as well....actually so many it can be quite confusing. I have it listing my next 6 calendar events with TODAYS current events bold and brighter. So when I turn my screen on....that's 1 single button push....I can see my days events...if I have them. To me, this si fast and efficient.
I keep a Handcent widget on it for reading my recent text message...again...1 click....and several sliders including one that opens my camera for quick scenario photo taking. Widgets are overlap-able and resizable etc. (I am not affiliated...just proud)
Widget locker has only one bug which is very annoying.
If you get a Msg, and you've set the Pop Up to come, try unlocking the screen.
The pop up would display for a very short time before WL.
This doesn't happen with TW lockscreen.

I absolutely love the ripple effect unlock on the S3 - But I kinda hate the lockscreen itself (bad quality image for the wallpaper, ugly clock, non-customized icons for shortcuts, etc...).
Does anyone have any ideas on how I could either customize the S3 lockscreen and use my own clock widgets and/or icons OR somehow get the ripple effect unlock over to my WidgetLocker screen...?
I'd probably just prefer to use the ripple unlock in WidgetLocker.

Not sure on this, widgetlocker is great, but I find it causes wakelocks which isn't helpful. I just wish there was a way to what shortcuts show on the stock lockscreen, and wish it showed todays calendar appointments. That would make it pretty close to perfect without dealing with widgetlockers battery drain issue.
Fwiw, I notice that widget locker constantly asks for your location in the permissions log... Not widget related as I had nothing on the screen just a slider. Guessing that is what causes the wakelock'ing

You can change what shortcuts on lockscreen. Settings. Security. Lock screen options. Short cuts

Awesome, thanks for that.... Now if we could only get Calendar appointments to display, maybe a dev will work it out. Although probably just use the AOKP / CM lockscreen if that's the case when the time comes.
Install water drops plus from the play store and choose whichever wallpaper you like to put under the water and you can use it with widget locker.. Maybe add a transparent slider for now also... That's the best thing I can think of

Disable automatic drops in settings so it only ripples on touch unless yu like it automatic.. Just play around with it..

Heh i sent the author of WidgetLocker an email the other day talking about this very thing....
I not only like the ripple effect but the slider itself being able to be used from ANYWHERE on the screen is nice.
Usually WidgetLocker is very good about adding features and fixing issues in the past.. the only reason I can see him not being able to do something like this would be due to restrictions with the OS itself.
As for the suggestion on waterdrops.. that's great if you don't already use a LiveWallpaper If you use a Livewallpaper like I do, you cannot have 2 of them running at once (one for the lockscreen and one for the normal phone operation).
Hi!
After 2 years I am finally back from iOS to Android 4.4.2 on my new Nexus 5.
I flashed the newest version Paranoid Android and now I am seeking for a lockscreen layout that can replace the iOS lockscreen notifications I got really used to.
Dashclock combined with Dash Notifier seems like a good alternative but I now have some strange lockscreen behaviour of which I don't know if it's normal or because of some settings I missed.
Every time I expand / shrink for security code input I see a semi transparent white rectangle (as seen in the pictures attached).
Is this normal? If not is there any setting I missed, if yes, is there any possibility to avoid this? I don't use any lockscreen replacement at the moment...
Thanks!

i stumbled upon dashclock widget and it's extensions last night and tried it out and pretty impressed by it .the problem you pointed out seems the feature of it that a semi white box shows up on lockscreen actually it's part of expanding or shrinking the dashclock. Actually i had a question for you if you could take a look at this link and tell me how to set up dashclock notifier right next to the clock widget as seen in that pic? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51150628&postcount=1237
Every time I set a lock screen wallpaper, the themed clock loses it's appearance and reverts back to the default style. Anyone about to tell me why this is happening? I shouldn't be mandated to use only the wallpaper the chosen theme provided. Would be great if you could change a lock screen wallpaper without losing an element of a Samsung theme.
Hello good people!! So what i miss in s23 ultra is weather info in always on diaplay like apple or pixel. I know there are some hacks with weather apps but the implementation js usually poor and looks terrible from UI perspective. Alao, who likes to see the weather everytime on notification panel anyway??
Wondering if there are any other options? If not, can we somehow request this so Samsung? This is a big need to make AOD user friendly instead of maybe adding bitmozi and gifs..
Any thoughts ?
I just use an app called today weather and i keep the live notification for weather and on the lockscreen it shows the notification and on the aod it shows the current temp and a small icon of the current weather.

Is the live notification for today weather or the stock weather app? I cannot get it to show for TW nor show on aod Lock Screen
It has to be today weather because ive removed almost every stock app on my device
If you remember how you enabled that please share. I cannot find a way to add anything to the aod lock screen

And on my aod it shows the current temp as a little notification circle thing. You have to have aod show notifications
You can do that with weather bug as well. But the bubble is always there hindering space for other notifications and the weather is always on in notification panel which i find disturbing so stopped using it. I understand these are just work arounds but i wonder, is it possible to bring pjxel like AOD in samsung? The finishing is way better in pixel although it supports less options.
