Just received the OTA 4.2 update on my Galaxy Nexus. Standard stuff all across the board for me on my device. Regarding the unlock screen.........
First of all, seems like the face unlock is immensely improved and much faster.
Now you can swipe from the log in screen to the right and access the camera without unlocking your phone first. Nice.
You can also swipe to the left of the log in screen and access more screens that will show you your messages, gmail, calendar, etc. You can choose the widget you want and the order, as they take up one entire screen each. This seemed like a nice idea that you could swipe to those. But you can pretty much see the whole inbox (but not interact and open things) and scroll up and down and read email subjects, names etc. I don't think I want anyone who can handle my phone to have this right. But I can't seem to figure out how to remove these widgets. Any ideas? (Note: when looking at these widgets off the unlock screen you can unlock the screen while looking at them and go straight to them when your phone unlocks.)
Thanks!
