(REQ) live wallpaper on lockscreen - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to modify the lock screen settings to allow a live wallpaper option? I know this can be done standard on aosp/cm roms. Looking for a mod on the LG side of things.
I know there was alot of lag on my wife's g pro phone with live wallpapers in general. I wonder LG set it that way so there would be no/less lag.

If its impossible please explain why. A live wallpaper issue has to be easier to accomplish then some of the bootloaders our bad a** devs have cracked.

On the DNA, you had the option of setting up the lockscreen with a Live Wallpaper. It wasn't a special mod or anything, it just came that way. Probably part of the Sense overlay. In any case, it was a standard available option.

I understand. LG also doesn't support root, custom recovery, and changing icons in the status bar. These options aren't impossible so why would a live wallpaper be impossible?
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

First you set LWP on your homescreen.
Open build.prop file and edit this line from:
Code:
ro.lge.capp_lockscreen=true
to
Code:
ro.lge.capp_lockscreen=false
Reboot your device.
Now you will see same LWP on your lockscreen too.
Root is required.

How difficult is that to understand that it is not supported??!! There is no point in arguing when I know what the fact is. Maybe a REAL DEV as you call can do it, but AFAIK no one can/could till date.
and about the last comment, thats AOSP stock lockscreen not Lg..

I had high hopes that this would work, but it doesn't work on my device (Stock, rooted). Every time I edit the buildprop and reboot as it prompts, it resets value back to true...hmm. Any suggestions?

I have one question. Did you save changes? And after saving make sure you set the build.prop file permission properly.

It worked for me on stock but changed my lockscreen to the aosp lockscreen

[CM 10] [MOD] Notification Panel + Lockscreen Weather Icons + Some other Stuff

This mod will bring the following changes to your CM10 Android 4.1.2 ROM:
Notification Panel:
-Bottom blue glow 'fading animation' (Like my ICS mod)
-Better carrier label text size
-Didn't give transparent this time, I think black looks beautiful
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Lockscreen:
-Option to chose normal lockscreen or Linkin Park lockscreen, both have AOKP weather icons (Like my ICS mod)
-Replaced some old GB spinners
-For any Linkin Park fans out there like me... =D
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Both the above mods are available in flashable zips. Just flash them in recovery.
Before flashing, DO HAVE A NANDROID BACKUP because most of you have very less space on /system. It may give problems...

Some additional stuff I made:
Trebuchet Launcher from CM 10.1 Android 4.2.1:
What doesn't work:
-Can't change the number of homescreens
-Can't change any settings under 'Dock' settings.
If you click there, you get FC, nothing big, it still works.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Everything else is just awesome: speed, the new transitions, etc.
Also, I saved 8MB of space on your system partition by trimming the original app which is 13MB in size. This one is just 5 MB.
To install, just paste in system/app and over write the old Trebuchet. You are advised to have a backup of it before replacing.
On first boot, you may face FC and think I am stupid, but NO!!! If it happens, clear data of Trebuchet from app settings.
Better if you do that before installing this one...
Nexus 4 JB 4.2 Analog Clock Widget:
I love the Nexus 4 JB 4.2 analog clock widget, so I modified Rashed's 4.1.2 ROM's DeskClock.apk and now I have that widget on this ROM.
See the attached image.
If you wanna have it, grab the apk from the link below and paste it in system/app
You have to over write the stock DeskClock.apk for this. Set permissions just like other system apps and reboot.

The linkin park lock screen is quite cool, and the glow works too! thanks! But, for some reason my weather widgets don't appear when enabled with working internet connection. Its stuck on no data - tap to refresh, and when I do tap it, a lot many times, there is no change! I'm on rashed97's Build 7! Is there something I did wrong? Because this problem persisted before flashing this too! Thanks again!

Its not intuitive at all. I installed a theme and then couldn't get rid of the lockscreen wallpaper. A theme can override your normal wallpaper by setting a lock screen wallpaper. To fix this you need to go to settings -> themes -> lock screen wallpaper -> clear
Took me awhile to figure this out. Hope it helps someone else.

Yeah, it doesn't work. It's just like Blocking Mode when the S3 was originally released. You could find it and turn it on in a similar way, but it didn't actually do anything when turned on (even though the icon was displayed in the task bar just like it is for this).

Yup the GN2 was the same way. It required extensive code to get it working right due to the integration with TouchWiz. I am hoping this might be quite a bit simpler.
I am going to compare the t-mobile code and the vzw code to see the differences.

The nav bar is part of the SystemUI, not part of the launcher. You have to use a theme/xposed or decompile SystemUI.apk to change the resource.
