Hi I've been trying to change my lockscreen wallpaper to a picture out of my gallery but every time I try it never changes? Any ideas? Where would the folder be located that stores the stock lock screen wallpapers I could maybe copy and paste some pics in to there and try that way. Cheerz

Hey guys.i have encountered a strange problem. When i open the gallery , everything is fine. But when i try setting any picture as a wallpaper , the screen starts flickering . And i am forced to go back to home. This happens everyrime i do this. Plz help.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
what is your ROM?
If you are on CM9 then it is supposed to happen cuz flickering problems have not been fixed completely on CM9.
If you are on CM7, then you may better try quickpic from market. Its Blazing fast. I dont use stock gallery on CM7 because even I have the flickering problem.

You can also choose to set the wallpaper from the home screen: Just tap and hold the screen>select wallpaper then navigate your gallery for wallpaper choosing
Go with QuickPic bro.

Can you change the lock screen wallpaper to what you downloaded? Or are you only limited to Samsung's stock images?
Yes you can. I use QuickPic for my gallery so when I see a pic I want to use for my lockscreen wallpaper I just long press it and some options will come up, one is lockscreen wallpaper, select it and then it'll have you crop the pic you want to use...if it's too big, done deal.

I tried that method, but only the option to set the homescreen wallpaper pops up. I tried changing the lock screen wallpaper with one of the Samsung defaults, but I get "Unfortunate the SECWallpaperChooser is not responding" or something like that. I wonder if that's the problem.
You might have removed some apps from system/app
That could be the cause your your trouble

Does anybody know how I can change my lockscreen wallpaper. I have been looking everywhere and cannot seem to find where to change it.

Already looked there no option to change it

Open any image file and hard press / keep press that image for 5 secs, you'll get options to set as Wall paper, in that select Lock Screen Wall paper.

That doesn't work either, I have no option to select it as my lockscreen wallpaper only the main wallpaper
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
The long press only works on samsung roms
Does anyone know how. Surely someone else is running cyanogenmod and know how

Lockscreen Background
Did you figure this one out already? I found it in Settings > Lock screen > Background - select "Custom image" and make sure you can browse to one using Gallery or File Manager
Lol I thought my first post was right
thanks dear

Same for me and for a more recent rom.
Is that for cm10 or cm10.1
I know that I'm late to the party, but I have some zedge wallpapers that I wanted to use as my lockscreen only. After much playing around, the only way I could get it to work on my lockscreen only, as to move the image to my gallery, and set it via there. It wouldn't take from my zedge wallpaper folder.
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.

Thanks for the info. Was able to change my lock screen without issue.
lock screen issue
hello buddy
is there a way to change the lock screen which came with the rom using root explorer in some how?
Does anyone know where the stock wallpapers are located on the DNA? I'm trying to set a Sense 5 wallpaper but the Gallery app, Astro, and ES File Explorer won't let me set the wallpaper properly. I'm trying to set it for portrait yo view to entire picture, but each app wants me to resize it with its framing square. This is a problem because it distorts the image when it zooms in. Can someone help with this? Is there another way to set wallpapers in portrait without having to resize?

Try using this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.twistedapps.wallpaperwizardrii&hl=en
It lets you set the entire wallpaper instead of having to crop it.

It works except it doesn't fully scale. It leaves a black bar at the bottom of the screen where the wallpaper doesn't cover. I tried using the fix option where you change the numbers, but it didn't work. I guess because this is a full HD device and there's no way to scale.

use picspeed https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.srsdev.wallpapers&hl=en
and use the gallery to browse for your wallpapers and set it up full screen! no blacks.

Nice app but we are looking for a way to take stock wallpapers already on phone from HTC One (from downloading) and taking the entire 1080x1920 image and making it the background. With images already on phone you have to use that selector from HTC which forces you to shrink image...

Nope.
Install the app. Go to your gallery and select the wallpaper you'd like to set
Touch the screen and go to More -> Set as -> set as wallpaper.
That will trigger picspeed.
Have fun
I stand corrected. It takes a little tweaking but it worked! Thanks. You have to goto gallery app then go to picture you want, don't do personalize under settings...once you get to the picsee deal then you have go select the rectangle square on right to get full image...little confusing at first but it worked. The full screen option states it only works on picsee wallpapers...but when I selected the landscape wide option it highlighted the entire image and worked like a charm!
Thanks again!
