AOSP Lockscreen on Stock Based Rom - G2 Themes and Apps

Generally speaking I really prefer the AOSP Roms but I have a few things in the stock based roms that I can't seem to get away from. One of them is the sound. Its just better on stock. I won't go into detail because a) that's not the point of this post and b) I don't want any of the excellent devs working on AOSP roms to think I'm being critical of their work.
One of the things I preferred about the AOSP Roms was the lockscreen. I just don't like LG's implementation. I don't think it looks as good and I don't like having to press enter after typing in my pin. It's petty on my part, but it irks me. Anyway, I had been trying to figure out how to port the lockscreen from AOSP to work on stock based roms and as it turns out, it's already there. In a rather foolhearty attempt to learn more about LG's lockscreen, I decided to make a nandroid backup, then boot, and just erase the LGLockScreen.apk/LGLockScreen.odex files from the /system/app folder using ES file explorer. I also erased the LGLockSreenSettings.apk/LGLockScreenSetting.odex files as well.
Now I have the AOSP lockscreen but things aren't exactly 100 percent stable. I'm trying to find a solution to make the switch and not have weird force closes. Sometimes it works fine but every once and a while, it will behave strangely and spit error messages at me. I've searched but I haven't seen any threads where anyone has managed to do this. (I tried erasing the lockscreen and leaving the settings files but that didn't work 100% either) Any suggestions?
Before:
After:

a working AOSP lockscreen for stock would be more than a welcome addition.

I changed this line in my build.prop because i wanted a live wallpaper on my lockscreen. It also makes your lockscreen aosp style.
Find
ro.lge.capp_lockscreen=true
Change to
ro.lge.capp_lockscreen=false
Reboot
Enjoy
Also for whatever reason root explorer wouldn't let me change true to false. It would only let me spell out fals so i downloaded buildprop editor free from play store worked great.
Should mention i have Verizon G2

Well setting the LG lockscreen to false enabled the AOSP lockscreen. I was able to get the lockscreen to unlock when the correct PIN was entered without having to press the enter button, which was not possible previously. I did notice that my navigation bar transparency was disabled when I was not using the LG lockscreen. With the QuickWindow cover I have I reverted back to LG lockscreen for the window effect and the transparent nav bar.

I went ahead and changed the line in my build.prop as stated above, and it definitely cleaned up the lockscreen how I wanted, but now my wallpaper is gone. Its just a black screen and I've tried changing it to other wallpapers but it just stays black. Any ideas?

I did this to have my homescreen live wallpaper on my lockscreen to mimic the look of Gummys kitkat rom while running lg based rom. I really havent tested beyond that. I set live wallpaper of choice ( phase bean ) onn homescreen then modified the build.prop. After reboot ive got a aosp style live wallpaper lockscreen.
Edit
Just tried and whatever wallpaper i set to homescreen is on lockscreen live or from gallery. Tried changing just lockscreen alone with no luck so if you want to separate wallpapers this might not be for you

Agreed, actually one of the things I wanted from the AOSP lockscreen was to use the same wallpaper as the desktop. I thought it looked weird having different ones and when I would choose the same one for the desktop and the LG based lockscreen, they would be clipped differently and just looked even weirder to me....
FYI, for those of you doing this, I'm noticing some strange issues when combined with some Xposed modules. I'm actually thinking I might install a fresh rom and do this so that I can try to figure out which module(s) might be of concern...

Tried the build prop thing too but although i am able to save it it gets revertet to "true" directly after...
EDIT: Forget it! Altered the build.prop manually with root browser and now the lockscreen has changed. But still i have to press enter after the pin...
EDIT: Forget that too. In xposed g2 settings i could activate "quick unlock".
Thanbks Guys

I found it under the gravity box module. I'm not sure it's in the G2 module since our G2 wouldn't normally use this lockscreen...

Which G2 Xposed module did you use? Nevermind

noticed a small issue with using this tweak: sometimes after a phone call when it goes back to the home screen it's just an empty wallpaper instead without any icons and the only way to get out of is to bring the notification shade and go into settings from there and then go back to the home screen.

I've seen that too. It's kind of annoying and really strange. I wish I knew how to stop it from happening because I really don't like the lg lockscren...

TouchWiz4 for Gingerbread Tab (Deodexed only) Updated 05/13

First off thanks to everyone from the various SGS forums for this, especially to fear2142.
This is the Touchwiz4 Launcher from the SGS2 ported to work with Galaxy Tabs running a DeOdexed Gingerbread based build (or latest Overcome based on GB).
Changes I made for the Tab:
Fixed XML's to support larger screen
Adjust size for workspace/edit screens
Set Launcher workspace to 6 rows/ 6 columns (fits good)
Set appdrawer to 6x6 layout as well
Adjusted to allow 5 shortcuts on bottom bar
How to install?
This is a CWM3 package, save to sd card, use recovery to install (choose zip from sdcard etc)
You must clear your dalvik cache after install.
Reboot, clear the application data for twlauncher to ensure it displays properly.
This is currenty setup for 240 dpi, I'm working on a version for 182dpi as I type.
*UPDATE*
Alright, I've attached the 182 version. Unfortunatly I just cannot get it to accept a grid any larger than 8x8.. though I suppose that's still 64 spaces right?
Known Issues
Screen rotation is not currently working
Nice one mate!
Nice work! The screen rotation does not work for me.

MILocker (MIUI Lockscreen application for any ROM)

This works great on Note:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390934
Enjoy!!!
It works great but many screens are not Note-friendly due to the resolution :-(
Very nice App. MIUI Lockscreens are the best. But I tried about 10 different mtz - and not even one has been displayed correct. Someone should customise some locks for this resolution
I tried it and it froze my phone. I had to pull the battery to restart it.
I prefer my stock lockscreen but thanks for the info
can we have the data monitor app from MIUI?
have you guys tried the lidroid rom yet, check it out it has 5 lockscreen mod in it.

I have tried out on G-Note. Not working properly, it installs, but due to high resolution, some themes are not working ( showing small icons etc.), thanks any way for your work.
go locker suits me the best.... using it for more than 20 days , better than the stock lockscreen
Go locker has a issue when using headset and changing song threw headset button, it refuses doubble clicks, so you end up pausing the song all the time, no fun..
Works well this, I have made the default MIUI lockscreen 'English' and changed some of the wording and how the date reads to read more, erm, English
Just unzip and place in the themes folder of the MIUI folder on your internal storage.
Not all themes work, but there are plenty which do... I have ICS theme working perfectly on my note...

[Request] Scrolling wallpaper

I have tried the numerous live wallpaper workarounds but still prefer the native wallpaper scrolling. Is there any way to enable this on a stock based rom similar to how Viper's launcher has it? I have tried looking in default.xml, Prism.apk, SystemUI but have yet to find anything. If anyone knows of a working exposed module or tutorial for how to force, please let me know. Thanks!

For whatever reason, scrolling wallpaper still works with some launchers. I have it working with ADW EX and I've heard at least Go Launcher described as still working. I just don't like the way ADW scrolls wallpaper.
Does anyone understand why we have an issue? Is there some way that AOSP Android allows for scrolling, and this is not working in KitKat or Sense has broken it? I've read Nova used to have a force scrolling option that was removed. Does anyone still have it working on that older version? Why was that option removed?
For me, with Solo launcher, wallpaper scrolling doesn't work. Themer, it doesn't work, Go Launcher scrolling works fine. I even like the transition, which makes sense, as opposed to the way ADW transitions. What a stupid way to choose which launcher I will use.
I guess I don't care about icons and traditional themes, though I'm definitely impressed with Themer's abilities, it's just not what I'm looking for... Just scrolling wallpaper, please.

Same feelings here for Nova. I love everything else about it. I continually try new CM nightlies but then miss the duo cam and IR features.
Edit: Oh and the main one, swipe to wake
I'm going to update this post later. There's several live wallpaper apps that restore wallpaper scrolling. I think the one in using now is landscape wallpaper. It works completely and invisibly, as if scrolling was miraculously restored. I even like being able to auto-switch walls on unlock.
EDIT:
Landscape Wallpaper - PROS: Better settings than WC, IMO; gives you lockscreen wall control, "scrolling direction," "scrolling source" of simulated or launcher (method), elastic effects, and image quality.; if choose simulated scrolling source, has further scrolling effects! (almost won me over with this... if could add "border mode" option to infinite scroll wallpaper (visible edge/seam, not jump/scroll back), I'd donate/buy this) CONS: Maybe a PRO, scrolls wall behind app drawer, but can't disable this. Can't create "albums" to choose from; only single image or folder
Wallpaper Changer - PROS: can create albums from single file, folder, or individually selected images from multiple locations and switch between them at will!; simple and works well. CONS: settings seemed glitchy or quirky for me; can add, but apparently not remove individual images from albums!?
Scrolling Live Wallpaper - Pretty simple, it adds wallpaper scrolling and worked for me. I don't remember it being bad, but I hated that when I took a screenshot, it became obvious it lowered the resolution/quality of the wallpaper dramatically, probably for performance. I don't think it had an option to disable this. It also scrolled unnaturally, imo. I think it simulated the scrolling effect, but poorly.
Wallpaper Wizardrii - I'm pretty sure I read this will enable scrolling for launchers that don't support it. I didn't try it. Looks popular, but has tons of wallpaper wizard effects that I don't need or want.
TIP: If using stock lockscreen, and maybe regardless, along with 3rd party default homescreen -- set same live wallpaper as wallpaper in Blinkfeed or stock launcher (settings same, regardless of launcher). Annoying when choosing single or small set of images; after a reboot, I always had a non-chosen wallpaper load, then refresh with expected live wallpaper after homescreen loads.

The latest Nova beta that came out today has an option to force wallpaper scrolling that works great.

Themer App FINALLY *Officially* Compatible - 27 Aug 2014

I thought I'd share with everyone that the app/home replacement named THEMER is finally LG G3 Compatible as of today.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mycolorscreen.themer&hl=en
If you aren't familiar, all you do is install the app, chose from one of over a hundred themes you like, and apply it. Widgets, backgrounds, everything on yours will look just like the pictures in the app gallery.
I've been using it for quite some time on my Nexus 5, and was happy to find out it worked fine on the G3 via restore from TIBU when I upgraded.
Doesn't work for me, can't get no themes. Says it's officially supported but says me phone isn't compatible.

You have to be using a stock/oem DPI and navigation bar height. If you change either, it won't work well if at all.
I updated this morning and it is working fine for me still. Perhaps uninstall and reinstall?
Good news! Long time waiting! Works perfect here.

Can't I force it somehow to work on modified DPI and navbar? Stock is just too big. I suppose I could set a custom DPI for the launcher only via App settings (the xposed module), but can I do the same for the navbar somehow?
This is awesome! Thanks for the heads up! Going to take some getting used to not using the knock to unlock lol

Nope.
Actually, the only other way to get it to work I read about in their subforums here. You have to change the DPI and Navbar in a manner that still gives you a supported resolution in the end. I don't have any problems with the stock nav bar, though I've got mine themed. some of the themed navbars have small buttons on them.
If you can install the app, you should be able to look at themes, you just can't use the Browse Themes/Trending/newest/Most Popular sections, When you apply others, they may not look right since your resolution is off. I don't think they plugged this loophole yet.

Don't know what the issue is. DPI has to be stock, status bar needs to be stock size and so does nav bar. If they all are, it should work fine.
If they are, and it isn't, you should post in their forums.

That's the thing, everything still works. The launcher portion is pretty customizable too.

Well in the browse section it points out that I have the wrong resolution, it doesn't do it at the categories, but they don't show anything. What's the stock navbar height? 48p?

Can't I force it somehow to work on modified DPI and navbar? Stock is just too big. I suppose I could set a custom DPI for the launcher only via App settings (the xposed module), but can I do the same for the navbar somehow?

What I used to do on my old phone is set it to stock, download the theme and set it, then change my phone to how I liked it. Most of the time that worked just fine, pain in the ass I know but worth a go if you want themer.

If this works then it definitely sounds like it's worth the 2 reboots. Thanks for the tip!

My phone icon is still on the lock screen, when I slide our up the dialer does not appear unless I hit "emergency dialer". I remember that setting from Kit Kat but its no longer in the lock screen settings...unless I missed it.
