Hi all,
I was wondering, is it possible to change the lockscreen wallpaper & the start menu wallpaper seperately?
(Start menu wallpaper is when you press the windows icon and you see tools, multimedia, games, etc folders).
I want to have a photo as my lockscreen wallpaper but have a complete white background for my start menu wallpaper. At the moment i can only seem to have one wallpaper for both screens.
Am currently using the latest version of cookies (1.8.5) and cookie home tab editor (1.8.5.1). See my signature for Rom details.
Many thanks.
Its been asked a few times mate and as far as an answer goes at the min its no : I would like this option also

Hope it's in the works....Would like that feature too
why don't you use cookies lockscreen ....if it has no issues.
dudes, i tried to answer a nearly similar question here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=727553
the OP in that thread hasn't responded but i guess you guys might be interested to try some of the ideas there and report back if/what works for you.
honestly, the way the forum is currently broken up is horrendous...and add to that the fact that most threads are started in the wrong sections...*sigh*

Hello,
I have an issue w/ wallpaper, I know I cant be the only one w/ this issue. I am using a rooted ROM, does not matter which one, it happens on all of them. But I can not get the wallpaper to display correctly... I know on a scale of 1-10, this is maybe a 0 w/ 10 being the most important, but this is bugging me... just wanted to know if anyone has a fix for this...
thanks in advance!
I have the same issue
but its whatever, but i would still like a solution

Yeah I agree.. Right now I am using Vegan's Rom and I would put 10 bucks to fix that issue... Just because it bugs the heck out of me

I got the same issue. Just adding to the count. The link above doesn't help my wall paper is the standard ones that came with it and now it doesn't work. Or I just don't understand.

Hey guys. What's this wallpaper issue you guys are talking about? Can you be more specific?
I had some issues with Vegan 5 and I noticed it didn't go away with the upgrade to Vegan 7. My wallpapers looked low-res. What I did to remedy this (someone suggested this on one of the threads.. wish I could remember who) was install "multi live wallpaper" form the market. I think that's what it's called anyway.
I just changed the default settings to single picture (then choose the picture you want as your background).
I didn't like the wallpaper scrolling as I went through the different screens on my home desktop. There's an option that makes the wallpaper fixed so it doesn't scroll as you scroll through your desktop pages.
Anywho, hope that helps some.
Just to clarify, download multi live wallpaper.
Then on the home screen press and hold down on a blank area of the desktop.
A list with options should open up. (Add widget, wallpaper, live wallpaper, folder, etc)
Select "live wallpaper" and choose multi live wallpaper from the list.
Set the settings you want and you're good to go.
Check out Wallaby on the market. Works like a charm for me.

the problem with live wallpaper is that it uses more RAM and CPU to run, even if you only have one photo.

I have it on mine, it super zooms the image to make it fit
Multi Live Wallpaper keeps saying that the files are unavailable, and that I must reload or reboot. And Wallaby cannot does not see my SD2 card, where my pics reside. MLW did work at once, and it did have the same problem when I started up, but would sooner or later "find" the pics, and display them after about 5 minutes of use. However, now, it just stays on the error message screen.
I use JustPictures, and it works, but still suffers from not scaling the pics to the screen.

Give Flick Ur Pics live wallpaper a shot. Scales the images perfectly and you can set from 1 to 9 images to display as your panel wallpapers. Its free on the market.

A noob question....I just rooted my SG2 using chainfires method, worked great! I would like to be able to change the icons on the bottom of the home screen, can't stand stock messaging app. What's the easiest way to go about this?
Thanks!
Why here you asked this?There is a Questions and Answers topic in this section.....
Use a launcher like ADW ex or LauncherPRO and you can customize the icons or swap them round. Touch whiz is pretty shiz to be honest.
By the way, this is the wrong thread for this question, should go in Q&A
Hi rsk99
Like the guys above said this should be in the Q&A section.
To change the icons on the bottom of the screen first hit the applications icon. Now hit the menu key and go to edit. You can now change the fist 3 icons but not the Home/Applications icon

Open the app drawer then press menu key and select edit. You can then change 3 of the shortcuts. The app drawer shortcut cannot be changed.
Or simply go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102965

Hi,
There are some themes I love and I would like to use, but some details doesn't seem good to me, such as shortcuts. Is there any way to modify those shortcuts in order to make mine, but keep using the particular theme ? I didn't find anything about this...
Thanks for your help

Hi,
Editing a theme is easy - simply long press on the homescreen - select Advanced - Unlock Widgets. Now you can add/remove widgets and shortcuts till your hearts content. Then when you are satisfied with your theme repeat the process to lock the items into place

Awesome, thanks ! I was looking for this during hours... Didn't find anything on the Themer website :/
Another question, I have sometimes a pop-up with "crash data failed to send, retry later", but I can't find where to send it, and the pop-up doesn't disappear... I have to uninstall-reinstall the app in order to fix that... I have a One Plus One on CyanogenMod 11 38R
Semi related question, is there anywhere I can download images of the standard icons you use for smart categories? I like a lot of themes but would like to change the categories on them and to do that need the images to match the theme.
Thanks

This looks incredible, I'll be using this. Thanks mate
Im stuck at this step. If I press restore widget...I get to the RSS Widget Config. Pls guide
Setting up the Lolli-Tab home screen
------------------------------------------------------------
Tap: Tap to restore widget (middle of screen) and load the LT_Home_screen template from the SD Card option.
If this is a fresh installation of Nova Launcher grand it permission to Create widget and allow access,
Tap: resize or tap to start and load the LT_Home_screen from the SD Card option.

I will revise that step, it's unclear, sorry
If you load the LT_settings in Nova and exit the program, you already can tap: resize or tap to start (middle of the screen) and load the LT_Home_screen from the SD Card option in Zooper.
Please let me know if you got it setup

Got it working now - was using Zooper Free and not Zooper Pro. thx
I'm struggling with sizing the Home Screen widget as Zooper widget sizes are limited. Nor does the Zooper scaling help.
Pls advise whether I'm doing cowrrect procedure.
1. Open a new widget
2. Select Zooper widget
3. select size (tried 1x1; 4 x 4; 4x2; 6x2 )
4. Then tap to resize or start
5. select sd card/LT Home Screen
6. Exit
Where do I go wrong?

All working . Thx
Hey Mokum,
Very nice theme!
I'd like to use it on my 10inch Asus Transformer, but I don't get the homescreen so crispy as you do.
Is that because of the dpi? Or the resolution?
Please reply!

I looked it up for you and it's '1280 x 800 pixels (~149 ppi pixel density)'

Separate widgets?
Hello,
fantastic job, even the other system info widget on the other thread, and very accurate explanation about how to configure everything.
From my point of view I see only one problem: such widgets are perfect for landscape but practically unusable for portrait, and having a Tab S 8.4 the last one is my most used mode.
I don't know if I'm asking too much or you already have tought about... Maybe you like my idea and you'll decide to do for yourself first
1) What if you make many different widgets instead of a big one? In such way you would give maximum modularity to them. It would be possible to use in portrait too, people could change order, etc.
The same for the info widget on the other thread.
2) What if you add customization using ZWUtilities even with these widgets like Meteo, Music, News, Calendar etc.?
3) What if you make at least "blank" 4x1, 4x2, 4x4 widgets, where "blank" means pastel coloured header with 3 stripes on the left upper corner, and white or dark background below... Luckily always with ZWUtilities customization to have a coherent theme.
To be sincere, I'm already trying to extrapolate elements by the big widget you already made, simply I personally miss the time to go fast on this job, so if you like the idea and you want to extend by yourself your own work I'll be happy too
However, really congratulations again for what you already made! And sorry for my english, isn't my primary language and I hope my ideas was enough clear.

Hi all my First Post as new member, (I think I was a member a long time ago, but no email search works)
I have 3 Android devices, my trusty old Galaxy S5, TCL 4K UHD TV and now new TAB7+5G.
Anyway I am trying to change my Lockscreen Image from original but can't seem to find a way and I did search before this thread, I have changed Homescreen Image OK, but not Lockscreen.
Appreciate any help,
Thanks
Ash
There is a service that will change the lockscreen image daily. Go to settings - wallpaper - wallpaper service - enable.
It would have been nice for samsung to enable the service to work for home screen wallpaper too.
Go to wallpapers and when you pick on it asks you which to use for.... home or lock screen.

Hi thanks for that But the Lockscreen Settings are either None (what came with Tab) or Dynamic which gives you options of about 4 category titles and then others within each title, BUT you must have WiFi on and they must update every 2 weeks to change LS cycle.
I don't want this at all I just want to set my own Lockscreen to my image as I can do with the Homescreen (use my image).
Guess we have different tabs.
Edit: Not sure why can't upload a screen shot.
When I go to "Wallpaper" in settings I see my current home an loclscreen images at the top, below that I ..
My Wallpapers
Gallery
Wallpaper Services
Apply Dark Mode
If I pick either My Walpapers, or Gallery and then pick an image I get a meny that asks me where I want to apply it.

Well finally got it,
Because I First added a particular single Jpeg Image from my Mega Cloud it saved in Gallery to a folder called Pictures first when I bought Tab new.
I also use a Recovery App for images off Twitter, etc....some I save and "restore image' from same app.
The image goes in Gallery in 'Restored 'folder.
Even though Gallery has 4 options in bottom of screen the Picture option Only has my Restored Images and not THE Picture I want as Home and Lockscreen.
As I said Yes I can use My jpeg as Homescreen Only as it gave me no other options, BUT when I copied this same Jpeg over to Restored Folder and opened up image there were the options to add to Hone and Lockscreen...so it worked.
Anyway all good, just the usual learning BS with Sammy and their control with OEM.
I am going from Android 6 to 10 in one hit, still learning.
Thanks.
