Lock Screen Widget Appearance

[Leon Stevens]

I am using NiLS (a great free widget for your lock screen that displays notifications). Although my question regards that program, I'm sure its a "general" widget behavior question.

When I turn on my phone, most of the lock-screen is taken up by the keypad used to unlock. In order for me to see the notifications from the NiLS Widget, I need to click on the widget and drag down, exposing the notifications and hiding the keypad. Is there any way to change this default behavior, so my widget is completely visible (maximized), from the time I power on my phone? TIA!

I don't think so, that's the default behavior. thats why i have smaller widgets on the front screen and bigger one on the left.

Not possible with stock ROM. It's one of the features of CM. I'm sure there are other custom ROMs that has this feature though.

It is possible. Amazon Cloud Music takes the entire lock screen. You have to press a lock icon to display the keypad. I am completely stock on my Nexus 4 on 4.3.
