I'm using the setup in my signature but I'm not sure how to change the lock screen wallpaper... Is there an AOKP feature or an app that will allow me to do it?

should be a setting under the lockscreen options to change the wallpaper. I haven't ran AOKP on my nexus 4 yet so I can't tell you for sure if it has in built in but on my GS2 it did. If you don't see it then it might not be incorporated yet. I'm running Xylon rom and it has the wallpaper option.
Xylon has this AOPK not have this feature

On my Nexus 7, the quick settings drag-down menu has auto-rotate lock, but my Nexus 4 does not. Both are running Android 4.2.1.
Is anyone else bothered by the fact that there is no quick way to lock and unlock your screen orientation?
Or if there is, please let me know!
You can use an app for that, if it isn't a problem - Power Toggles. It has a slightly different behaviour - as far as I know, the native auto-rotate toggle locks the display in its current orientation, whereas Power Toggles only seems to be able to set it to portrait and leave it that way.
That's the quick'n'easy way, otherwise, there may be a mod for the same purpose.

yes the double slide shows the quick settings for wifi, gps, etc.. on nexus 4 there is NO auto-rotate whereas on nexus 7 there is.
Just got my N4 a few weeks ago and this lack of foresight bugs the hell out of me. Is is plausible to extract the auto-rotate quick setting toggle from the N7 factory image and build that into a custom, modified stock, 4.2.2 ROM?
If you're saying to yourself "seems like a lot of work for something with such little use," spare us all the comment. Little details are the most important IMHO.
Use an app named power toggles
Here's a screenshot of my setup.

I've got power toggles installed. But it's redundant and not what I'm looking for.

If you're willing to, just flash a custom ROM such as PA which has it built in. Being a Nexus, most ROMs are very close to stock in most ways.

flash a custom rom, or build your own. its android, better yet a nexus, you have many choices and options..
Using CM nightly (18th).
I have a pattern lock and removed the side widgets with Lockscreen Policy. Last thing to go would be the circular dots at the bottom that are part of the Google Now swipe.
On a separate note, is there a reason you can pull down the clock to expose a blank area underneath?

The space is for when you have multiple clocks for different time zones.
if u fill ur lock screen with widgets, u press that to bring up the unlock settings.
You could use an app like widgetlocker or go locker. They'd probably have the option to hide the google now circle.
I miss the simple ICS/ 4.1.2 lockscreen

I don't suppose anyone who has these apps can confirm this? I guess I'll try Go Locker, but the other one is a paid app...

WidgetLocker does one of two things. It either leaves the Home, Back, and Recents buttons there, or, if you enable root helper, it will replace those with the GNow Circle. No option for a black bar.

You could always make the Google now circle blend into the lock screen if you're using paranoidandroid like so.

In hybrid settings, set the launcher's nav bar color and transparency to match the lock screen color n transparency. It takes some tweaking to get the right color but you'll find it soon enough.
I'm using #55000000 but you may need to tweak it a bit depending on your wallpaper
Or you could take a screenshot of your lock screen, find the color code for it using the color picker in Photoshop and then enter that value in the launchers nav bar color picker.

Not sure I'm seeing what you're seeing. The dotted circle is still in your screenshot.
Yea but its not within a black bar. The wallpaper extends to the bottom. And its just one possible way to mask it and make it look nice since I'm not too interested in getting rid of it completely anyway.

Ya... I too want to remove that upward pointed triangle from the lock screen as it is giving me issues.. It is even present behind my Home button and disables its functionality even after unlocking the screen.
Somebody help please
Hi All,
I finally made the jump and bought a Nexus 7 even tho we will most likely see a newer version in May. However it is still freakin awesome! I am running CM 10.1 nightly's but cannot expand the lock screen widgets. Is this possible? I love that new Dashclock widget for the lock screen but it will only show me two of my selected options before it cuts off because I am unable to expand the widget.
I use it on the Note 2 (also running CM10.1) and it works great. Anyone know something that I may have missed?
Thanks in advance
-Chris
I actually forgot how it's done. I remember I did it once on 4.2 but never again could I expand the widgets to maximum size again on 4.2.1 and 4.2.2
Hi there,
Have you tried Apex Launcher?
I dunno for sure, but maybe, and just maybe you can re-size and customize the lock screen widgets.
Hope this helps

I did! That's what I thought but looks like it's built into CM 10.1. but not in the grouper builds i guess.
Swipe down on the widget. From the clock

It doesn't behave the same way my Note 2 build does.Only thing I can do is delete or add widget. no re-sizing (that I can see or get to work) .
It really is strange then. Maybe if you pm your Rom dev for some q & a.

Also try Wallpaper Wizardrii
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.twistedapps.wallpaperwizardrii&hl=en
It also allows you to set a wallpaper without cropping it.
I use "MultiPicture Life wallpaper"
It's a life wall paper, but with with the "single picture option" enabled it can acts as fixed background image.
It also doen's use any batt. when using the single pic option.
Does anyone know if it is possible to change the default app picker on the cyanogen ROM? I don't like having to click more than 1 button to select the app that I want to use. Aokp and slim both have the option that I am looking for, but I prefer to use cm because LTE seems to work better for me.
