[Q] Missing "Light" Unlock Effect - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There is no option for Light (Lens Flare) unlock effect on the settings window of my Samsung Note 3. However, when I use a live wallpaper on the lockscreen, it automatically uses Light unlock effect and the other ones are greyed out. But how do I unhide the light effect on the settings so I can use it with non-live wallpapers too?
Is there a flashable file for this? I'm using 4.3 non rooted (yet) stock rom.

[Q] Flare lockscreen effect replaced by ink

After fooling around with few different launchers and then removing them I noticed the lockscreen effect option only contains ink and wave options. Is there a way to get back the flare option or do I have to do a factory reset (that's what the Finnish Samsung support told me to do)? Don't think Note 3 should have the Ink option as stock.

I have wave and ripple that's it
Flare is only for live wallpapers.
When you select a static, you get 'unlock effect: watercolour , ripple, none.' On ripple, you can set an ink colour.

Thank you
Was wondering as i had used several static wallpapers and was able to use flare with them. Now when I changed between them from gallery flare wasn't there anymore. But seems that if you use Zedge for example to set a static wallpaper the flare effect is in use. That's why I didn't realize that was the reason. Thank you for clarifying.

Live Wallpaper and lockscreen light effect

Since updating to kitkat, it seems I cant have a live wallpaper on the lockscreen and the slide to unlock light effect or the ripple for that matter, the lockscreen changes to the circles with padlock in the middle when I put a live wallpaper on the lockscreen. The lockscreen effect option in settings is also greyed out. Is this just something I cant do now on kitkat or is there a way round it?
Cheers
Light/Ripple effects were always available only for static lockscreen wallpaper.
update: hmm.. just checked on 4.3 - light effect works on S4.
I remember on S3 ripple effect(on old 4.1) worked only on static wallpapers.
update2: only light effect works. ripple doesn't work with live wallpaper on 4.3. Even option to change effect is grayed out.

I've had the light effect with live wallpaper for nearly a year since I got my s4, only just updated it though been on 4.2 since I got it. Why did they disable it? worked perfectly on jelly bean.
It makes me wanna more to stay on 4.3. I still can't find the reason why i need 4.4. Even ART is not available in TW 4.4 ROMs.

[Q] Lockscreen animations after 4.4.2 KITKAT update

Hello there!
My problem is rather aesthetic, but id like to sort it out.
When i had a jelly bean installed on my n9005 and used an "animated wallpaper" (Phase beam) on my Lockscreen i had a nice light effect while hovering my finger above the screen, followed by a nice sound while unlocking.
The funny part is that it dissapeared after update to 4.4.2. and i get that ugly white padlock with a white circle to mess with, like on the stock android .
(but only on the animated wallpaper, while on static one i can still use the ripple effect and ink effect if i like..)
(N9005XXUENB3_N9005OXXENB1_XEO to be exact)
is there a way to get that back? or maybe there is an option im missing out? (im having air functionality ON)
please help me if u can, as i loved the way it looked before, and i really want to get it back :fingers-crossed:

the problem is the version (4.3) i want a mod for 4.4, the zip what you give me donĀ“t work
You should still have that effect in KitKat. I believe the menu is context sensitive, depending on which lock screen type you choose. If you leave it as "Swipe" you should have the choice of None, Watercolour, or Ripple.
Try changing the wallpaper for your lock screen. The ripple and watercolor effects don't work with all wallpapers.

See notifications on lockscreen

Hi all, is there any way to enable and/or see any notification on the Lockscreen when you have any other Lockscreen Design chosen than the default one? In German the default is called "Diashow-Entsperrstil", which only shows the notifications. But as I am using the settings in the picture (because it is looking so damn hot when you see the shooting stars on the lock screen with this wallpaper) I am a little bit mad about not seeing any notification neither on the screen nor in the top status.
From what I know you only can do either:
1) Using deflaut theme, changing wallpaper and symbols to what you desire and pausing diashow.
2) Using customized theme which supports notifications and adjust main screen, lock screen and symbols. I am using for instance that one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=h7.hamzio7.aospdark.ps (flat theme supports notifications).

I have the same problem. Did you found any way to solve it?
Try the app "floatify". I think that's wat you want.
You have to use the dia show Lockscreen to get it work
Floatify is a really good app. But it only works with Android 7.x or lower. Since Oreo it is not working anymore.
