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 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.
hahaha
So my co-worker as a prank, took a picture of himself with the front facing camera and set the picture as the lockscreen. Now I can't seem to switch it back to the default since it only allows pictures to be selected out of the gallery. Any suggestions?
What happens if you just delete the photo?

Not properly it seems... opps
No need to come across as rude
Take a picture of yourself on his phone and put it as his lockscreen. Then people will start thinking you two are lovers. xD
Jokes aside, when you long press a home screen, and you click wallpaper, you don't get like gallery, live wallpaper, wallpaper gallery? Doesn't picking a picture from say, wallpaper gallery, change the lockscreen wallpaper also? Excuse me if i'm wrong or you don't have a wallpaper gallery/live wallpapers.
Home screen > menu > wallpaper > gallary.
Choose the default red wallpaper, but press the portrait symbol. It will ask you if you want to use the wallpaper for the lock screen as well.

Rooted Helps.
If you want to remove Lock screen File Then,
You can use root explorer to delete the lock screen file in the system by :-
(i) search for (lock) or (lockscreen) in root explorer home.
(ii) then select the lockscreen image file present in the system search and delete it.
Don't forget toggle {mount as r/o}.
And when you remove the lockscreen file it will automatically turned to default or original lock screen.
I've only had the phone a few days, and accidentally deleted the long 4x1 Accuweather widget that's on the homescreen (it normally sits right underneath the clock on the homescreen).
I've gone to add new widget, but the Accuweather widget listed there is only 2x1. Does anyone know how I can get the long one back again that stretches all the way across the screen? I did a search on these forums but couldn't find anything..
Thanks!
You can only resize it on touchwiz launcher. You have to add widget then hold it down (make sure u have space)
If your using a different launcher and try resizing it, it wont work. It will become overstretched

Same here, only option is 2x1, no amount of long pressing the widget will give any other size, even on an empty homescreen

Make sure it's moved over to the left when you hold then release it - it should give you a resizing handle.

ok, just press and hold, until you feel the haptic feedback, then let go(dont slide it/move it, just press/hold/let go).
if you have space on the screen it will give you the available options on screen. yellow boxes. then you just move the silver triangle(bottom right corner)
Thanks again but no go. When I press and hold till the haptic feedback nothing appears on the home screen, I only get a white 2x1 location box when I press and slide on to the home screen and that white box doesn't have any drag points...i'll live with it, Beautiful Widget is not so bad!
Maybe its the version, I lost my two favourite stock wallpapers during the upgrade from odd to ke7

Is there a way to set up shortcuts to link to different home screens?
Say, for example, that I have music widgets on my last home screen. Rather than swiping through all the screens, or previewing them and choosing, is there a way to create a shortcut on my main home screen that I can press to have it jump directly to the screen with the music widgets?
Yes, download adw launcher,when installed, long press home screen, choose option to add 5 shortcuts to five screens.i know only these way.or maybee to modify some codes and transform the home screen dot indicators in button links.

Unfortunately, ADW doesn't allow me to do other things that are essential, so I guess I'll just have to forget about the luxury of linking to other screens. Unless you know how to get the dock horizontal in the latest version and get rid of that menu button in the top corner...
I am wondering, on this phone when you have no icons on your desktop it displays a "Tap + to customize this screen" message that wont go away. Is there any way to remove this message or just overlay something that is transparent so that I just have a clean desktop? Would prefer not to root.
Its just an icon. Long press on it and drag it the x

I have tried that and it doesn't pick it up, it opens up the customize screen just as if you hit the plus in the right corner.
This is how the stock home app is. Only way to get rid of it is to put a widget (even a transparent widget) or to modify the apk. I recommend you just use a third party launcher. The stock home one is crap anyway.
Nova launcher works well
