Hi, Is there anyway to change the lockscreen with an image from the stock gallery? I did it before but I forgot how or what app did I install to make it work. When I long tap the home screen and the option to change wallpapers come out, I had the option to change the lockscreen here, but now I didn't (after I flash another rom).
Thanks
Go to the screen settings -> screen, there should be an option for the lockscreen background as well...

i did but the lockscreen wont change. I used overcome rom btw
changing the lockscreen is a bit difficult,you need to modify rom's framework,or if you have cyanogenmod you can go to settings->cyanogenmod settings->lockscreen and you can choose different lockscreen models(ring,rotary,slide tab)!

The wallpapers are located in system/customize/rescources if you are trying to change the default that come when you load the rom...if you are just trying to change your own wallpaper you can use any pic that you put in your camera's folder on your sd card...you can also just long press on any picture on your phone and it will give you the option to set as lockscreen wallpaper
Hi there. I have a galaxy s3 since a mounth or two and i have a contact that i call 20 or 25 time per day.
I want to know if there is a HACK or a MOD to integrate a direct call shortcut to the original lockscreen of the S3.
Thanks
I'm not sure about a hack/mod for the stock lock screen - someone else will hopefully clue you in about that.
Failing that though you could replace the stock lock screen with Widgetlocker which will allow you to add custom shortcuts and widgets (such as a direct dial widget for instance) to the lock screen.

I know this is old topic but Samsung did no changes to solve the problem. I wanted to keep original lock screen and be able to launch shortcuts from it, so I wrote an app for it. Application can be mapped with any shortcut, so when you press app icon it works like pressing shortcut icon. Unfortunately there is no possibility to change app icons, so I put launcher icons with different numbers on it.
Application is called Shortcut Launcher. You can download it from Google Play.
And if you don't want to install stuff, you could just add a call contact widget on the homescreen, you would still have to unlock it but it's some steps quicker
You can also use the ROM SlimBean, it has the option to add widgets to the lockscreen
Nevermind, I'm an idiot, expected to see these settings in the Lockscreen menu but they were in the Display.

Is anyone else having issues with this? I've tried changing my lockscreen wallpaper to several different images from my gallery but it always stays the stock one.
Edit: Found the fix. I had to clear the application defaults for QuickPic im pretty sure you have to use the stock Gallery app to crop your Lock screen wallpaper
So if you are using Sammy rom, you would know that it is not possible to change the icons of the app shortcuts on lock screen. Unless you modify the APK directly to change the icon file. I've been looking for a way to change their icons according to the launcher's theme, etc but haven't been able to.
I know there are the possibility of using different lock screen app/widget but I prefer to use the stock TW lock screen. I'd love to use AOSP lock screen too, but with my DPI mod the AOSP lock screen comes with Simple Framework is simply off the center and cannot change lock screen shortcuts either.
So if anyone out there able to find a way to change these shortcuts, please share!!!
Much appreciated!!
You can change lock screen icons in touch wiz by selecting lock screen options and then shortcuts.

Hey Guys in my personalisation menu i dont see the option to change the wallpaper of my lockscreen!! I just saw a captured screen image with that option and realised that the wp of my home n lockscreen are the same. What can i do to change my lockscreen WP? Pls Help. ThankYou.
There is no stock option to do that.Probably you need WidgetLocker or some similar app to personalize your lock screen.
