Customize Lockscreen Shortcuts - Verizon HTC 10 Questions & Answers

I remember seeing in a review somewhere that you can change/remove the app shortcuts at the bottom of the lockscreen.
I can't seem to find this anywhere on here or the internet.
Does anyone know how this is done? I don't have root or anything.

The apps you put in the bottom bar next to the app drawer on the home screen are what show up on your lock screen too.

Thanks. I didn't realize the two were connected.

How to move home screen drawer to side.

Does anyone know how to put the Bottom drawer to the side on the home screen? Some guysays he "hacked" it but usually when people use the works hack they usually are some loser with a dowloaded app. Or something. I've looked around to find some source code in the firmware that dictates where the drawer is to be but I can't find it (that's where it was on my iphone).. so if anyone has done this or knows how to do this could you let me know?
i've glitched it to the side a few times and it's kinda ugly over there. the whole setup of the homescreen rely's on the app drawer being at the bottom. to move it you would have to change how the icons appear on the screen and you would lose some space
no biggie

If you set a lockscreen wallpaper, it will place what ever you pick behind.

Same here. Without the "albums" being accessible I don't think we can change the lockscreen wallpaper.
VoX is yours clear as well?
I forget where it is at, but there is a googlebits.zip or something like that floating around, with an albums in it, that works. On my 2.1 I can adjust wallapapers/locksceen. On an interesting note...I guess with the "rotate" lockscreen..it stays clear..I just found that out..whoops. I guess when I am done with the other 2.1 projects I am working on, I will take a look at porting the "rotate" part from ASOP. Then again, maybe someone with a bit more code experience will know how to unclear the background.
yea if we can unclear the background that would work because the lockscreen is functional, so i guess no reason to port.
Has anyone been able to add a back ground to the clear 2.1 lockscreen?
So will this be available for our HTC Hero..?...I really liked the lockscreen and always wanted it...Atleast till we get a fully functional 2.x ROM..
when you try to select a lockscreen wallpaper by clicking Albums, do you get a com.htc.launcher FC?
thats what I got after messing around with it a little. anyone have googlebits with working albums?

I'm in the same boat as you are, it I get a fc when I press Albums, but it still doesn't change when if you hit the Wallpaper gallery button, so idk if it the albums thing would work.
Unlike you I kinda like the clear wallpaper, I just don't like the clock on the lockscreen, it covers my HTC clock

Yeah that's my problem
Same boat here. Maybe we can remove the info on the lockscreen?
any progress here for anyone else...? I've been trying a lot, but nothing seems to work so far.
Has anyone been able to remove the htc bar for incoming calls also?
clear background
I get a clear background as well.

I don't see an actual widget for it. But go into setting>lockscreen>additional information >turn it on then check weather. In the lockscreen setting also make sure show date is checked.
I think that is what you're asking. Mine is transparent on my lockscreen, but can't remember if I made it that way or rom I'm running lol

its the stock weather widget. long press the home screen until you see widgets. tap it. look for weather. you can make it transparent in the options for it.

After the first week or so with lockscreen widgets on other phones, I found them useless. They were limited in information and functionality... and honestly, my muscle memory was to pickup my phone and unlock it. Then if they magnified to the full screen, the area to swipe to unlock got small... I just think for me, they were a waste. Once I am 2 or 3 swipes, or touches in, I can unlock it just as fast.
I hope someone figures out how to add them back. I have an ICE app that I need to have a lock screen widget for.
I always used the message g widget, always quicker than unlocking and going into the messaging app, I also used the app shortcut widget that u swipes to the right for, especially after getting spoiled using cover lockscreen, which I uninstalled due to too many bugs

The same for me. Please, help us!
I know that with root, I can use Xposed framework and download galaxy s5 widget to do it... but what about Note4 without root ?
(P.S. I'm sorry for my English...)
Ice contact lock screen
You can add your ICE contact (phone number etc.) to lockscreen by writing it in to the "owner information" -field, which can be found under lockscreen settings. No need for ICE-app.

Disappearing Apps on Home Screen

I have two questions and apologies in advance. I'm helping someone and do not actually own or use this phone myself.
1. App shortcuts on the home screen have been randomly disappearing. So far the camera app, chrome, and one other app has disappeared. Is this a known recent bug or has anyone else experienced this problem?
2. How do you add apps to the home screen? Holding the icon in the "all apps" drawer screen does not allow me to drag and drop the icon as an app shortcut onto the home screen.
Many thanks!
