[Q] How to change lock screen wallpaper on a rooted RAZR? - Motorola Droid RAZR

So I have a rooted RAZR and I want the wallpaper of my lock screen to be different than my home screen wallpaper how do I do this? Can it be done using metamorph I tried it with my old phone and soft bricked it, but I was just winging it.... Not really smart
So is there a way to do it using metamorph or a different app? I'm on the stock ROM 4.1.12 or latest ICS
Here is the picture I want if that helps http://i.imgur.com/B3vm64w.jpg

Not sure about anything on a stock ROM but maybe with a custom rom.

[Q]has lockscreen wallpaper

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?

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.

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

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

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.

2 Questions about ICS

I've decided to stick with stock home launcher. It's been awhile since I used the stock so I was wondering how I can edit my number of home screens from 5 to 3. It's been awhile so I forget how. Also, how do I edit the lock screen shortcuts? Thanks.

From what I have found, you can't.

You can, but need a new home/launcher
The only way to achieve that (afaik) is through using a different launcher/home (like ADW). Hope it helps.

[Q] Change lock screen apps?

This may be a dumb question but I just got the ICS update and can't figure out if it's possible to change the apps that appear on the lock screen. Is there a way to do this?

You mean lockers? I suggest you take a look at the store and look for lockers.
Cheers!
