Hey

just wanted to know whether the lockscreen ring on the Nexus 7 can be altered? I noticed that there are 4 points where the unlock happens but only 2 are used. Google Now and general unlock. I realise that on devices with a camera on the back the left point is used to go to the camera app... but is it possible to add other apps to the ring?
 
Try out widget locker. It let's you fully customize your lock screen

I run custom rom Codename Android and it adds in the function to add apps to the lock screen ring.

IMO, CNA feels very stockish yet with a good amount of custom ability.
 
I would not use the swipe lock screen. Use Pattern or PIN. Some like Face Unlock, I find it a bit annoying.

Click on the Youtube icon below my name, I have a tutorial that shows you how to ensure privacy on your device very easily.

I know -- this is not what you asked. But using a swipe unlock like in stock is silly, just don't lock it at all (yes, that is an option under Settings | Security).
