Move the Notification Icons on the lockscreen back to its original space

[Barrie-Wilson]

Hi,

Just one thing I don't like about the new update is that the icons on the lockscreen have move to the top left. I always have it so icons show so I can click that to show the notification. But now I'm having to click the top left where the icon is now. Is there a way of changing this to revert it back to showing on the middle of the lockscreen? 

Apart from that I'm enjoying it.

Hello there,

you can bring back the icons on the lock screen to the middle if you long press on the home screen, choose to edit wallpaper and style then pic the lock screen, If you press on the watch part you can drag it around and resize it and the rest of the icons will follow.

If you want further customisation i recommend you install Samsung GoodLock>Lockstar

Regarding clearing the cache, are we supposed to connect the phone with a cable to a laptop first? that's what i did, then i carry on with turning the phone off then pressing the power and volume up button then releasing the power button when the Samsung logo appears...

Hi thank you for your suggestion. However there is no watch part when I go into editing. All I see is in the picture. Regarding Goodlock it is something I already use. However I think Lockstar is being updated because I can't access it at the moment. Hopefully when they finish with updating it. It brings back the feature to move notification icons on the lockscreen to the location you wish.

I've got the same issue, it must be a bug as i also cannot move it in the wallpaper editing section. It's hiding behind the "wallpaper" button

I don't think it's a bug (even though I thought it was at first too) it just seems like a very questionable design change since they've updated the graphics in Settings->Notifications->Lock screen notifications to reflect the new position too.

Would really like them to change it back as I can barely see the notification icons in the new position. It also looks really cluttered with the icons next to the network name in my opinion
