[Q]has lockscreen wallpaper - Motorola Droid X2

Has anyone else noticed that with the GB update the lockscreen has the stock wallpaper? On 2.2.2 it was the same as the homescreen wallpaper. Is there any way to change this?
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk

I just received the OTA 2.3.3 update this morning, and my lock screen wallpaper is the same as the home screen.

Ok I noticed it is only when coming out of the sleep mode. Stays that way until a reboot.

Are you using a launcher? I had this happen with my OG droid, randomly across all different versions of Android. Reboot always cleared it up.

Yes I am using launcher pro plus.

Me too. I think it just looses the selected wallpaper when it restarts and goes back to the stock one assigned to the default launcher (blur in this case). Is it happening a lot?

No I don't really use the sleep mode. Just tried it out and noticed the wallpaper was changed on the lockscreen.

Lockscreen widget problems

My work phone is a droid x2. I've set it up how I like but noa I've run into a problem with a lockscreen widget that I downloaded from the market. I played with it for a bit then decided I didn't want it. I installed it but I can't seem to disable the lockscreen. Does anyone know how to remove all remnants of this app? Has anyone run into this issue?
EDIT: Figured it out. I had to go to menu> location & security> setup screen lock> none. In case anyone else runs into this same issue

Lock screen

So, I don't know if this is a dumb question or not, but I was wondering if there is something I can flash that will just change my lock screen cause I'm tired of the lock screen where I just have two options....slide right to unlock and slide left for sound. I'm running Eclipse v1. 3. Any answers would be much appreciated. Thanks

I don't know about flashing to change lockscreen...
but you can try widgetlocker, go locker, QQlauncher, or something similar from market to change up your lockscreen ...there are a few apps available that allow for customized lockscreen ...even allowing u to add widgets or custom sliders to the lockscreen ...
good luck
Liberty X3 you can choose the rotation slider.
On Molten you can choose rotary too.
Ash is right though, those would be the best options.

I just don't want it killing my battery
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
yeah I understand that...
I was also trying to find a way to just replace an apk or something easy like flashing something to get different lockscreen so I don't have an app constantly running to change it...
hopefully someone who knows how to make flashable locksxreens will see this and give us a few choices
ICS theme has a nice lockscreen!
I'm thinking about trying out Liberty 3
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Lockscreens are difficult to add. There aren't any options for an actual lockscreen replacement (besides using Molten or Liberty which allow for Rotary). Lockscreen changes require much smali editing that doesn't seem worth it.
I just hope we can get CM7 soon...
If you want. Go to UOT Kitchen and upload your systeemUI and framework-res apks and make your own lock screen with the options there" then it will cook you a flashable zip. Its pretty neat!

Magic Lock is great
Magic Lock from the market is nice. they have 20 or so different themes with different locks and shortcut keys to apps while your phone is locked. Heres a screen shot of my current lock screen.
How's that on your battery?

Is the lockscreen really that big of a deal? I have seen multiple post of you asking for your lockscreen. I believe you even tried liberty x and still not happy. Seems like a lot of work for a lockscreen.
Haha. Well it's a big deal to me. They coulda at least made the lockscreen on Liberty more customizable

Just seems like many people gave you options and you are very hard to please. I personally like the lockscreen for the ICS theme. You should check those out in theme section. Then if all else fails start by Google uop kitchen and learn to make your own.
Ive been very happy with WidgetLocker. Im trying out MagicLocker right now though just to change it up. If you are worried about battery life, just stay with the default lock screen. Any locker app will probably have an effect on your battery. Sorry.
the lockscreen is a pretty big deal to me.
I settled on widgetlocker.
Its not as good as CHT & winmo, but its the best I found so far.
Go Locker is one of my favs. After switching to this from Widget Locker, I've noticed a little better battery life. I would try it out for a while.

ICS bugs!!!!

post them here and what version u have phone/software
x912 verizon / rooted ICS .211
when using the keyboard in the text app the keyboard stops vibrating after a couple key presses.....works at first....i think this feature is called tactile feedback
.211
Using a diff launcher (apex and nova) the widget menu (home screen long pressed) is unreadable.
The vibe/silence option on the lock screen will get changed depending on the last option used-not sure if bug
Annoying keyboard options in the notification tray whenever the keyboard is up.

Where specifically in the L&I menu is the notification option. I'm using swiftkey and don't see anything about that notification.
Sorry, it looks like I was mistaken, I was going to go right in and take a screen shot, but searched five minutes and couldn't find it.
Battery life is bad and Gps doesnt lock on fast.

Keyboard notification is not a bug. It was present on the HTC OneX running 4.0.4 as well as the GS2 running 4.0.3. Its a "feature". I also dont like it.
Great. I didn't even notice the KB notification until this thread. Now it's annoying the hell out of me. :laugh:
keyboard notification is a quicker way to switch languages (like if you are typing in spanglish)
only bug ive found was the lack of a 4G toggle.

This, on Zeam as well. At least Nova still shows widgets in app drawer.

Its not a bug, but it would be nice if I still had a CDMA option for network settings since LTE is iffy where I am.

Download the "Phone Info" app, and it solves this problem.

Definite Bug: people whining for ICS ASAP, then whining that available ICS is not their idea of perfect.
Workaround: Settings->Whine Mode->Disable

ICS Lock screen Question

I just factory reset my Maxx with the hope that the battery life would go back to the long life it had prior to the ICS update. I'm using a 3rd party camera apk and I'd like to set it as my default lock screen camera app. I did this on Saturday but I have forgotten how. Thanks

The easiest way to change Lock Screen defaults,...
Get the free app "Default App Manager".
I personally hate the stock camera on the Razr Maxx because it sucks, so I changed the Default to Camera360 (btw, if you haven't tried this app your missing out, nice clean photos everytime, with more detail).
Changing the Default app, changes the lock screen Default as well.

I tried this approach and cant seem to get the 3rd party cam app to sit on the lock screen. The stock app is still on the lock screen. I have made my 3rd party app my default cam app.

Kinda frustrating I've been hoping for a solution to this since the OTA and i don't want to root it.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
I'm 100% stock, I don't want to root either. Haven't rooted a phone since my Droid Incredible.
If possible I want to stay completely stock. Something on a phone has to bother me pretty bad for me to root.

Beans 10...can't change lock screen wallpaper

Over the weekend I swapped from CleanRom Lite to Beans build 10. I noticed that I can no longer change the wallpaper background on my lock screen. I use golauncher and also noticed that I am no longer able to change app drawer wallpaper background.
Anybody else seeing this problem?

Are you using the gallery to change it. It will not work with the 4.2 gallery if you selected that in aroma during install. No sure about go launcher tho as I haven't used that since pre-ics days
So when I go to that option, it only allows me to pick a wallpaper using gallery. It won't allow me to use any of the other media apps like quickpic...
Can that be changed? How can I have the phone allow me to use quick pic at the choose lock screen wallpaper selection screen?

Here's what mine looks like even after I change lock screen wallpaper using quick pic to set.

You need to open gallery, find the pic you want, hit menu, then set as. This will bring up options where to set it
After I do that, the wallpaper remains the same. This really isn't that big of a deal, just a small thing I would like to be able to do. Any thoughts on why it won't take?
I will try restarting the phone and see if that does anything...

Hmmmm. Not really sure from here. Could be an issue from the pin lock? Have you tried changing it to swype and see if it works? If not I'm not sure, maybe a go launcher issue.
