Contact Info on Lock Screen ???

[Brian K2]

Is it possible to display an alternate contact phone number on the lock screen? If I lost my phone, a person who found it may be nice enough to call me at the alternate phone number so they could return the phone to me. I searched the forum for this issue, but didn't see it. Thank you.

Dashclock Ownership Extension is an extension for the Dashclock Widget that displays information about the phone's owner. It simply displays your name and the primary email address associated with your device.

Welcome to the forums. Not sure if this is the same on the HTC One as my phone, but check under Menu->Lockscreen->Owner Information.

On my S3, there's an option there to put it in and to display it on the lock screen.

There's a thread here about it, but maybe it's missing from the Verizon version

If not, there's a lot of widgets you could use to display it (such as the Dashclock mentioned above or just using the app "Minimalistic Text" to display it).

I use Widget Locker and minimalistic text. Although you should be able to locate your phone if you have gps turned on and linked to your gmail account.

I also use the app called Widget Locker which allows you to do this.

I wasn't aware this is possible. How does it work?
