Help Unfortunately, Lock Screen Settings has stopped.

I was looking to change my lock screen but didn't really want to use WidgetLocker or any other apps. I recently discovered how to get 4.2 stock Camera, Gallary, and Clock in addition to 4.4 Calendar, and Keyboard (also using 8sms for Messaging) so was now on a mission for the Lock Screen. I Froze com.lge.lockscreen and Lock Screen Settings in Link2SD to see if this would force the stock 4.1 Lock Screen to appear, which it did! However, with that I also had the stock LG Wallpaper. Attempted to change but since I Froze Lock Screen Settings this was not possible. I knew I was on the right path so I UnFroze them and restarted my phone but when it booted back up I still had the LG Wallpaper. Figured this was a simple fix of going over to Lock Screen Settings and adjusting the Wallpaper but when I try to open it crashes with the message 'Unfortunately, Lock Screen Settings has stopped.' I've tried clearing Cache and Date in both apps that I had previously Frozen but still have the same problem. I'm using WidgetLocker now, but does anyone know how I might be able to fix this issue?

TL;DR - Broke my lock screen settings because I wanted a stock look and feel.
 
you may have deleted another system app that is used by the lockscreen.. I have no idea which app it could have been.

I get the same error but i am still able to set a lockscreen wallpaper from the gallery app or Quikpic.
 
I figured out what the problem was... I was able set a Lock Screen Wallpaper from Gallery, which got me thinking, Lock Screen Settings was probably looking for Gallery but I disabled the stock Gallery and replaced with 4.2 Gallery. I've already gotten pretty used to WidgetLocker so I guess it doesn't matter either way but problem solved.

Never thought about that!

by the way, when you had the 4.1 lockscreen did you have a gray bar at the bottom?
