I go into Beautiful Widgets, set up all the options, save and exit, and it is not displaying at all. What am I missing?
Sorry, running an Autonooted NC.
Did you press and hold on the screen to add a item then widget?

When I press and hold on the screen the only option I get is to Change wallpaper. Nothing about adding to the screen
When I do click the Change Wallpaper I only goes to stock Wallpaper/Photo Gallery screen, nothing about Live Wallpaper.
Any thoughts?
Oh, you have to have a launcher screen up.
Like Zeam or ADW Launcher. Not the stock home screen.
Pretty sure you need a home screen replacement in order to use widgets. Check out adw or launcher pro.

I wont change. I like stok launcher.
More ideas
I've seen on reviews that when it's enabled, it's supposed to give you the option between switching to landscape mode or launching Widget Clock.
Mine just seems to flip to landscape mode when enabled (or do nothing when disabled).
I can't quite remember if maybe I saw the choice prompt once and told it to always put me in landscape, but that seems quite plausible.
I'm curious to try out Widget Clock now, but I can't seem to figure out how to make it come out anymore. It doesn't show up in the app list, and when I go to manage apps and scroll to Launcher Pro, the launcher I'm currently using, it doesn't show up as set as any defaults (which is odd, shouldn't it at least be my home screen default?), so there's nothing for me to clear out.
When your kickstand is in use and you are in landscape mode pull down the notifications menu. From there you will be able to access the widget clock and change your default preferences.
Turns out Widget Clock only works if you're running the default Motoblur launcher. I was running Launcher Pro, and the notification never pops up.
That's a shame.

Noticed this as well. Using Go Launcher EX.

Try using Home Switcher to go back to MotoBlur and then activate the kickstand.

Yup, that's how I discovered the root of the problem. Pretty awkward way to use this feature in the long run, though. I'm just going to be turning off the feature.

I'm using GLEX and my Widget Clock works fine on kickstand and in my HD dock. If it doesn't automatically pop up, hit your home button and it should switch to the clock.
I'm able to change the wallpaper on my homescreens, but how do I change the lockscreen wallpaper?
And is it possible to replace the clock on my lockscreen with another one? How?
Settings>screen>screen display for the lockscreen wallpaper. Can't help with the clock.

Found it, but the wallpaper is still the same even if i'm changing it. Don't get it, I pressed the save button.
I usually clear the defaults and go back to the touch wiz launcher... You can change it there then save ADW as main home again.

Thanks for answering. I switched back to touchwiz and pressed the + icon. on my homescreen. Went to background, picked gallery and lock screen wallpaper. Found the pic file and cropped it. Pressed the save button in the upper right corner. But the lockscreen wallpaper is still the same, I'm not able to change it.
Any answers thus far?
I too am trying to find this answer......
I usually go to Galleries, or QuickPic, open up the desired picture, and set is as lockscreen.

Funny thing is, that is what I usually did before.
But for some reason, that option is no longer there......
When I go into QuickPic and choose the picture, only gives me an option to use for wallpaper (dont even get me started on trying to find a wallpaper that fits).
So I am using Multi Live Wallpaper for my home screen, but can't find how to change the lock screen.
When I do change the lock screen through MultiLive it lets me do it.
But when I turn off and on the same old lockscreen is still there.......and actually, when I push the power button there is a very fast flicker of the lockscreen wallpaper that I chose, but then just goes to the stock screen.
I installed the ADW Ex launcher on my view with HC. I pressed the home button and the screen dimmed but a box to select the home launcher never appeared. I went to manage applications and was going to clear the defaults for htc sense. However, the clear defaults is grayed out. Any ideas how I can get the launcher selection to come back?

yes, settings/applications/ADW .... clear default
There is also an app for that called Home Switcher.
if the screen greys out when you go to select a default for any action just rotate the screen. when you rotate the screen it will re-draw the screen and show the box. That is a known bug in HC that I believe was fixed in ICS

thanks for this. went a little nuts trying to figure out why i couldn't change the default launcher.
Good morning.
It seems that we cannot have different wallpapers for lock screen and home screen on this Mi A3 ?
Any workarounds ?

In fact Mi A3 by default do have the option to have different wallpapers for home screen and lock screen, you don't really need a 3rd party launcher for that.
Just long press on your home screen and select wallpaper, after choosing your desired wallpaper, press the check mark (Set wallpaper) on upper left hand corner, then you'll be prompted to choose an option of "Home Screen", "Lock Screen" or "Both".

Good evening.
Earlier on the option window did not appear.
The wallpaper just set immediately after I press the check mark above.
Thank you.
