I know this is going to be a super noob question, but it's it possible to change to lock screen wallpaper? I can't figure it out for some reason...
Edit: never mind. I'm an idiot

You can change it in Settings > Display > Wallpaper

Hi,
everybody knows about the bug that prevents the restoration of the original lock screen wallpaper. I fiddled around with my lock screen wallpapers, and now decided on a live wallpaper for my home screen which i also want on my lock screen.
Unfortunately, I have yet to find a way to do that. On my gf's nexus s, it is quite simple: just select the live wallpaper and it is set as your lock screen wallpaper too.
Anybody know how to do this on a sgs2?
Well at the moment you have to change your lockscreen.
You can get one from the market, widgetlocker or something.
personally i like to keep as little running as possible so just use the stock lockscreen.
If we could enable transparency on the lockscreen wallpaper
that would work but right now it just comes out black.
Im sure a good dev would be able to do that though.
I can't find where to change the lockscreen wallpaper... anyone know?
found it. Settings -> Screen -> Screen Display
Settings, screen, screen display
plus icon -> wallpaper -> wallpaper -> Lock screen Wallpaper
Your best bet is to go into the Gallery and after selecting a photo, go into the picture settings and set as your lock wallpaper (top right corner). Going through the normal wallpaper settings doesn't give you a lot of options for lock wallpapers.
I have a related question, the update to 3.1 automatically changed the lockscreen wallpaper on the device, I want the old one back! but i barely remember what it was did anyone have it saved? it's not in the wallpapers folder i don't think.
I don't remember there being a separate lock screen wallpaper. I'm pretty sure it was just whatever wallpaper you had set on your device. If you're looking for the IO wallpapers that were missing after the update, there have been a couple threads with zip files. Just search around.
Anyone know how to make a live wallpaper as the lock screen?
There should at least be a default to set a live wallpaper as both since on the Transformer and Xoom the lock screen is whatever the home wallpaper is.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I agree, once I noticed this I became annoyed right away almost makes me want to take it back and get the Transformer but I prefer the look and feel of the SGT2 better my self. Hopefully with the touchwiz update they will fix this.
If you look close in this video you can see the Samsung Rep has a LWP for his lock screen.
Hi all,
I added a nice wallpaper for my phone, but when i lock the phone my clock is displayed over the picture which doesn't look nice I want to remove my clock from lockscreen. Please let me know if someone knows about it.
Else, All together a nice app which locks screen with picture would be nice (like sliding the picture to unlock the screen) or picture BG in the lock screen ...(like windows 7)
any replies are greatly appreciated!
I am on Nexus S with CM 7.1 Stable. Adding my phone lockscreen screenshot for reference!
Looks like you're using cm7? If you are there is a setting to remove the clock from lockscreen. Goto settings > cm settings > lockscreen > widget options > widget layout > select hidden

Perfect!
XDA forums doesn't allow me to hit thanks more than once
Is there anyway to retain the original brightness in the lock screen? (the brightness of active screen) I feel that the picture will look more nice with brightness.
Anyway, I am very happy now. Thanks a ton buddy!
Goto settings > cm settings > lockscreen > style options > choose background(at very bottom) > custom image

thanks once again. But the maximum area i can select using that option is limited....i see the image distorted. Are there any recommended dimensions of the image?
What phone do you have? The size to crop your photo will be the size of your screen res. For instance I have a evo shift 4g and the screen size is 480 x 800. So make a seperate image to your size and use the new sized one for the lockscreen and that way the one you have for the wallpaper doesn't get distorted.

I have Nexus S. So, It'll be 800 x 480? Let me know if i am wrong. I'll try it now. Thanks
Yeah that should do it for you. Just resize on the computer then add the photo to the phone. Then select as lockscreen background.

Can I do this in PAC rom?
Is there a setting to do this in PAC rom?
I used to have CM and was so easy to turn off!
I know I could go though and ass blank text widget or get a lock screen app. But this is what roms are for!?
(Also should I post this somewhere else instead of this old thread :s)

I did, it didnt work
Sorry, you need to change to a different theme, and then you can change back again to the theme you had before.

Got it, after switching the theme a few times the lock screen changed.
Thanks
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.
