Lockscreen Widgets 2.7.6 (Patreon)

This version of Lockscreen Widgets is an update specifically for devices running One UI to address some weird bugs.

To start, Samsung's Direct Dial shortcut behaves very weirdly and not like other shortcuts Lockscreen Widgets supports. While it listens for the standard ACTION_CREATE_SHORTCUT action, the return values behave as if a launcher app requested the shortcut using the new ShortcutManager API.

This caused Lockscreen Widgets to assume the configuration had failed and to skip adding the shortcut altogether. There's now a specifically tailored workaround for this shortcut. Unfortunately, Lockscreen Widgets isn't able to properly use the ShortcutManager API, so if other widgets behave this way, they'll need to be manually handled as well.

The other fix is for One UI 5.1's new battery grid widget. Different devices on One UI 5.1 have slightly different versions of the Settings Suggestions app, which contains the new widget. Those different versions have different logic for how the widget is laid out, and on devices like the Z Flip4, it doesn't work properly. This version of Lockscreen Widgets has a workaround to force the widget to lay out correctly.

Interestingly, in debugging this, I found out there's another layout option for the battery widget. Instead of circles, each item is a pill with a horizontal progress bar. It doesn't look like this layout is ready, though, since the bottom is cut off no matter how tall the frame is. I'm not sure if or when Samsung will make this a normal configuration option.

As always, you can find the downloads through the pinned post.
