Oh and what else should i add to my lock screen? I finally figured out how to edit it

What weather widget is that?

Its called "weather & clock widget"

How do you edit the lockscreen?

Im using "C locker" but there's a bunch of lockscreens on the appstore. It replaces your lock screen

lock screen widget

I am not sure if this is possible with a lockscreen widget or another addon.. but is this possible with the android and if so, does it exist? Its for an iphone...
TIA
You can mimic/enhance that look with widget locker.

You can get WidgetLocker and put whatever widgets you want on your lockscreen. There is an app called executive assistant that puts all of this info on your lockscreen as well.
I use widget locker, its a great app. I will have to look for the other widgets to get all these features.
thanks
haha, looking for the right widgets is becoming numb..

Using Launch-X Pro to add extra icons I use.. Still looking for weather and clock.
For Clock, I just found Digital Clock Widget

I am totally stuck on the weather widget. I cant find a 4x1 widget to show a simple weather like the OP... any help here please?
Found it.. for weather, I am using weather forecast widget
http://www.appbrain.com/app/org.koxx.forecast_weather.v2
its not the ideal solution but it will work.. I will upload my finished screen tonight
thanks
Sorry for the delay in putting the picture up..
Here is my lockscreen after all the above
Very nice. I prefer the 2x2 weather and agenda widgets so I can see more agenda items.. Personal preference, just sharing.
Also - have you had any issues with accidentally opening the shortcuts? I've been using a slider to enable/disable interactions to prevent that

nope, I do carry my phone in my pocket too. I know there is an app called "Call sure" I think... not 100% on the name but basically gives you another prompt to make sure you want to dial someone and should stop pocket dialing
Are you using multi icon widget for the apps? And what does the lock icon do?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
For those icons on the bottom, I use Launch-X Pro
the lock button just locks the phone instead of hitting the power button.

Possible to disable lockscreen widgets, but replace clock with a custom one?

Title says it all... Basically, I want to remove/disable lockscreen widgets, (which is an option in many ROMS), however use a custom widget (instead of the standard clock)... get it?
I tried replacing the standard widget, then disable all widgets... however, unfortunately that brings backs the main clock lockscreen widget.
Anyway

Dont disable lockscreen widgets. Just add your custom widget and delete the page with stock widget , thats it

Ah, the reason I asked, is because I HATE to see the white highlight sqaures when I unlock the device.... (Love lockscreen widgets tho)... just wish I could make the white highlighting transparent... ;(
How about something like widget locker?

With cataclysm ROM, you can make it so that there's only 1 widget on the luck screen

I was wondering the same thing

[Q] Any way to remove the default lock screen widget?

I have gone into security settings and enabled lock screen widgets. This allows me to add DashClock widget to the lockscreen, however, I am unable to remove the default weather/clock widget from the lock screen. "Remove" is greyed out and the only option when you grab it is to "edit" it. DashClock works fine and I can remove it like normal.
This wouldn't be too big of a deal but it won't let me move the default to a different screen, its locked to page one so to get to DashClock I have to swipe.. Well, if I have to swipe its pretty pointless to have lockscreen widgets, I can just swipe to unlock the phone and have my widget on my homescreen.
I was able to take some screenshots to demonstrate what I'm talking about - I'm "new" so I can't post the link but try this: imgur.com/a/oCfVt
I was unable to find a way myself. I've been using this lock screen app instead https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slidelock
Really nice. Lots off features.

Has anyone found a solution to this?
Only way to do is ..
The only way to hide/disable the stock HTC weather/clock widget is if you have rooted devices with installed Xposed Framework. There is a module called "Sense 6 Lockscreen Modes" where you have an option to remove/hide the widget, in that way being able to have any other widget on your main lockscreen !
I researched about this a lot, and the most covenantway to disable/hide the widget was to apply this module, plus you can have it back any time you want, just by disabling that module!

How to edit lock screen

Im wanting to edit my lockscreen kind of like we already edit our homescreen. In particular im looking to get my agenda and a snapshot of the weather on the lockscreen. Is this possible? If so how, oh and im not looking to use a launcher as i like the layout and feel of touch wiz. Thanks
You can't without root. Some manufacturers (e.g. HTC) will have weather info etc. on their lock screens natively, but Samsung doesn't unfortunately.
Well thats stupid! Okay option two/three. Any good lockscreen apps that replace existing lockscreen that dont lag? Or any launchers that sill allow me to keep my own theme and app style and layout but allow me to customize the lockscreen?

I don't know of any lock screen apps off the top of my head because I never use any, but I know they're on the Play Store, so just do a search and see which one would probably fit your needs. Also, the launcher and lock screen are two different things, so installing a custom launcher just affects the home screen and app drawer.

I tried that, and its giving me loads of issues any other suggestions? Thanks
I always used AcDisplay on my past android phones. I haven't set it up on my S7, so I don't honestly recall all the features, but I always liked it so that's a good place to start.
May just be for notifications but I really can't remember.
Try hi locker it uses the fingerprint scanner has good media and notifications has calendar and weather as well

Weather on Lockscreen

I am trying to get the weather to display on my lock screen. It says "To view weather information on the lock screen, add the Samsung Weather widget to the home screen." I cant find this. Can someone explain how to get the weather on my lockscreen please?

I use Nova Launcher and find the Samsung weather widget doesn't show up there. If you switch to TouchWiz your can find the widget and add it there, then it will show up on the lock screen. I'm not sure if it will update properly though, I never see it because I forget to swipe over to it. Seems to me it might not be updating once you go back to Nova.

Mine works. Nothing special, just weather as well.
I'm on Verizon with my S8+. Did they disable this setting because I can't add weather to my lock screen.

Yes mine is a Verizon S8+, and I am on Tmobile, but I flashed the Canadian firmware on it
I am also unable to add this. Was anyone able to add theirs?
I use the elecont weather app: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0058EBNAO/ref=mas_ya_dp
Shows two rows on the lock screen with one row for this weeks' daily weather and the second row for next week. I didn't do anything odd just set up the nav bar display on pull down to show the same thing.
I'm using Nova Launcher.
I have the unlocked US version and the option to add the weather to the lock screen is not there, same as the Verizon users.
If anyone that has this option for having weather on the lockscreen and is rooted, is there a possibility that I could get a copy of your csc_features.xml. I am seeing if I can get this feature added to the US variants. Thanks in advance.
