[Q] Live wallpaper on lock screen defaults to unlock=light-effect ? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Decided to try out having live origami as my wallpaper, I love it. subtle, not too distracting, low battery consumption and it changes regularly, perfect for my ADD for wallpapers.
However, when I go into settings>display>wallpaper>home+lock and change it to live origami, my homescreen changes no problem, the lock screen does too. But then it resets it to having the light-shaft unlock effect and greys out the option in the lock screen settings.
Is there anyway to prevent this or re-toggle the 'no effect'(just the icon of a lock)?

Why not ask in the Q&A section? Might get a better response there.

[BUGreport-CM9]

Since for obnoxious reasons, spammer can post in dev thread and new members can't report bugs, i'm doing it right here. Sorry for inconvenience and feel free to move my post in the proper section (though i might not be able to answer then, lol)
So here is my bug, not reported yet (as far as i read) in the CM9 thread.
My wallpaper don't display properly. First, they center strangely, depending on the wallpaper. I mainly tested those from the wallpaper gallery, and a few personnal photos, for most of them, it centers on the upper left corner of the cropped picture.
Second, they don't scroll, at all, when switching desktop.
The animated wallpapers, strangely, center in the middle of the picture and animate as they should. They don't scroll, though.
Not a biggie, but might be adressed.
Thanks to the dev for their awesome work !

[Q] Quest for a better Lockscreen

Hey guys,
I'm an Android n00b, and this is my attempt time using a TouchWiz full time. While it's *okay* for most of the time, I have questions regarding the general difference between AOSP builds and Samsung's. Particularly regarding the lockscreen.
I notice the lockscreen behaves differently on the S4 than the AOSP builds (or other manufacturers for that matter?).
1) When I have secure lockscreen enabled (passcode, pattern lock, etc.) I loose access to multiple widgets. I know this is the intended behaviour, but is there a reasonable explanation as to why Samsung chose this behaviour?
2) is there a mod so I can use both secure lockscreen and multiple widgets? Also, is there a mod that will save me the annoyance having to press "Enter" after punching in the passcode? It should automatically accept the passcode (like in CynogenMod/other AOSP, and iOS)
3) if the lockscreen can't be modded; then what's the best lockscreen replacement that'll play nice with TouchWiz (as in, the widgets, etc.)
I've looked at:
1) MIUI Locker (tried it, it's OK. Looking for a better alternative)
2) AOSP Lockscreen (have not tried it, not sure if this would work on 4.2.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2059567)
Suggestions?

Have you already tried LockerPro?
So far the best for me on JB.
Widget Locker also worth a look. I've not seen Locker Pro, so I will check that out myself!
WidgetLocker works quite well for me.
Thanks for the suggestions! I tried both!
LockerPro didn't work for me; but the Lite version did. I even rebooted; removed the Lite, rebooted, reinstalled the Lite. No go. Oh well… good thing all that happened within the span of 15 minutes ;P.
WidgetLocker isn't bad! Not quite my cuppa tea, but that seems like my best option.
Also tried Go Locker. Way too bloated, sluggish, unpolished.
Is there anyway I can chuck in an AOSP lockscreen?

Lockscreen

Is there anyway to remove missed calls and text notifications off the lock screen? I don't know if there is a post about this anywhere, I have read through a lot post but don't see any solution to fix.

Click to expand...

If you are only using swipe to unlock (i.e... not using pattern/pin lock), you can install dashclock from the play store for that.

quick question regarding backgrounds and pages

Hey guys..first time posting, long time visitor..had a question
I recently went to kitkat 4.4 launcher (thanks to xda forums), awesome by the way. However, i do have a question, now that i have kitkat, my background will not center with the widgets pages, i have one page but it always goes to the left instead of centering with wallpaper. When i make 2, it works but when i delete a page, it goes back to the left instead of staying centered..anyone experience this..
Thanks in advance guys

Any option to change navbar ? like s8, xperia ?

I would like to change the lg g6 navbar, maybe s8 style. any ideas?
Not without root unfortunately. I would love to do it as well. Maybe make it a bit smaller and change style.
Oh well, I like the little animation when you press the home button anyway.
You guys need to stop posting threads like this in this section. Pinned post clearly states all q&a threads go in the q&a section. Helps keep things tidy
Sorry, I was not aware of that, please delete my thread, to create another in Q & A, I do not see the option to remove my thread
there apps to customize the nav bar, but you lose the ability to add LG shortcuts (q slide and notification drop)
Here's an example of one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.damianpiwowarski.navbarapps&hl=en
