Hey guys, I'm having trouble replacing the wallpaper on the LG Lockscreen. When I go to Settings > Lock screen > Wallpaper > Gallery, and then select the image, it does not set. If I use a built in wallpaper, it changes okay. I have tried going from the gallery to the image and then setting it as lock screen wallpaper from there and it still doesn't set. Is there a bug with one of the programs?

Same Problem here.
Question: Does someone know where i can find the Standard-Lockscreen-Images so I can try to change the Orginals?
System: P760 V10h
Edit:
This works:

does anyone know how do i change my lock screen photo to one of the default wallpapers??
As far as I know you can't - quite annoying.
I had to reset the whole theme to default then re-configure it to my liking. Once you have done this remember to save it before making any changes.
Can you not do it by going to >Settings>Personalize>Lock screen wallpaper>Select

That only gives you the option of selecting another from your downloads and camera albums. The default wallpapers are unavailable.

Ok. Now that i am completely confused as to what you want to do, can I suggest that you look at
http://htcsource.com/index.php?opti...=1&PHPSESSID=ac33b78594e2afe40e49e2fb360c2b8b
The default wallpapers are available there and you could download them to your phone and use them.
Apologies if this is not what you were asking for.
Kalairn is saying you get the options to use your album photos and HTC wallpapers when you choose a wallpaper.
You only get the option to use album photos and NOT the HTC wallpapers when you select an image for the lock screen (even though by default they use the HTC wallpapers).
Your post should get around the issue because you can put the HTC wallpapers in your album folder.
s1977 you are a star!!! i guess I'll have to copy them images to the phone
Yep, you definitely can copy the images to your sd card. From there on its easy
HTH
Those are the wallpapers, not the lockscreens. The lockscreens is available in the etc/lockscreen folder. But you can't save or copy them from there (usually) so I uploaded them: http://fluesoppen.com/android/lockscreens/
Enjoy.
Is there any way to select the lock screen image without any compression?
When selecting the lock screen (and the standard wallpaper if it's from an album) I get a preview of the image on the screen with a green rectangle that can be resized. Even selecting the full image, the colours/compression seem to be worse than the original image.
This still occurs when I have copied the HTC lock screen images to the SD card, so it shouldn't be a problem with the images themselves, just a problem of how to get them onto the lock screen at full quality!
Any ideas or solutions?
On most android phones when you pick the wallpaper it also shows it on the lockscreen. That doesnt appear to be the case here, so how do you change it? I'm on overcome v1.2.1.

On stock rom you can do following,
...settings/screen/screen display/then options ..home screen wallpaper and lockscreen wallpaper, if you select lockscreen ,further options ..wallpaper gallery or gallery,
is it the same on your rom ?
(another option,
to set lockscreen, from picture gallery application , straight )
good luck

To clear this post up a little (because I could barely make it out...no offence to willcor though)
You can do one of two things...
1. Go to Settings
> Screen
> Screen Display
> Select the word "Wallpaper" under the screen you would like to change
> Select where you would like to choose the picture from (most custom ROMs don't support the "Wallpaper Gallery" Option)
> Choose your picture
2. Go to your Gallery Application
> Select the folder in which the picture that you want is located
> Select your picture (A Motion sensor setting popup may come up if this is your first time. Doesn't matter what you choose for it)
> Hit the options soft button in the top right corner of the tablet (if you have no menu buttons up, press anywhere on the picture once and they will come up)
> Select "Set Picture As"
> Select either LockScreen or Wallpaper
Neither works on task's roms.

Okay. Then tell me how you have done it since I have used both of these methods and the new lockscreen from 14 does not change.
What happens is the wallpaper stops scrolling and gets stuck on vertical mode. There is no option to change it when I try to put a new wallpaper. When I first flash a ROM it works fine and after a restore my apps with Tibu it goes into vertical mode. I'm rooted and currently running super osr. The problem also occurs when I flash CM7. I use go launcher. I was using the LCD density app, but froze it cuz I thought that was the culprit.and nothing changes. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Go launcher settings > screen settings > wallpaper mode > ???????
Forgot to mention that I tried that and it doesn't fix my problem.

Are you restoring system data as well?
No, I never do. On a positive note, it hasn't gotten stuck after the flash I did this morning. I didn't restore lcd resolution, perfect comic book viewer and NFL live wallpapers. Maybe one of those are the culprit?
Sent from my SGH-I777
My guess would have to be the LCD resolution or perfect viewer.because the only problem I saw with perfect viewer was if you set the wallpaper through it.the wallpaper will have a blank spot at the too and bottom. I have yet to test LCD resolutions.
Hopefully it's LCD resolution. I need PV to read my comics!

Lol if you to try and see for yourself I say make a backup through cwm recovery then try restore either one and see if its the cost.when your find out restore your backup =)
It's pv. If you set a wallpaper from it, the default becomes vertical and you must uncheck preferences> miscellaneous> wallpaper management and reboot. This takes it out of vertical and lets you choose default Or vertical. Thanks for the thoughts and help!

Your welcome glad you found the problem and fixed it.
Hi,
on my i9300 intl. I did a clean install of latest CM11 nightly (20131212) plus GApps-stock 4.4.2-20131212 coming from CM10.2 and while everything seems to work fine I'm not able to find anymore how to change the lock-screen wallpaper.
On CM10.2 used to have the possibility to go on Gallery, select the image, hit the menù button and there there was a pop-up menù allowing me to select "set picture as" and giving me the possibility to choose the lock screen. Now there are only the following options: Contact Photo, Wallpaper Gallery (that is weird), Wallpaper Google+ and WhatsApp profile photo.
Even if I go in Settings>Wallpapers there is no option for lock-screen anymore.
Any help from anyone??? Thanks in advance...
Install the xposed framework and gravitybox

Thans fo the advice. Will try this although this confirms that the feature basically is no longer there anymore. Maybe will reappear in a future nightly.

In Settings under "Themes". Then you'll see the setting for lockscreen wallpapers.
Hi all my First Post as new member, (I think I was a member a long time ago, but no email search works)
I have 3 Android devices, my trusty old Galaxy S5, TCL 4K UHD TV and now new TAB7+5G.
Anyway I am trying to change my Lockscreen Image from original but can't seem to find a way and I did search before this thread, I have changed Homescreen Image OK, but not Lockscreen.
Appreciate any help,
Thanks
Ash
There is a service that will change the lockscreen image daily. Go to settings - wallpaper - wallpaper service - enable.
It would have been nice for samsung to enable the service to work for home screen wallpaper too.
Go to wallpapers and when you pick on it asks you which to use for.... home or lock screen.

Hi thanks for that But the Lockscreen Settings are either None (what came with Tab) or Dynamic which gives you options of about 4 category titles and then others within each title, BUT you must have WiFi on and they must update every 2 weeks to change LS cycle.
I don't want this at all I just want to set my own Lockscreen to my image as I can do with the Homescreen (use my image).
Guess we have different tabs.
Edit: Not sure why can't upload a screen shot.
When I go to "Wallpaper" in settings I see my current home an loclscreen images at the top, below that I ..
My Wallpapers
Gallery
Wallpaper Services
Apply Dark Mode
If I pick either My Walpapers, or Gallery and then pick an image I get a meny that asks me where I want to apply it.

Well finally got it,
Because I First added a particular single Jpeg Image from my Mega Cloud it saved in Gallery to a folder called Pictures first when I bought Tab new.
I also use a Recovery App for images off Twitter, etc....some I save and "restore image' from same app.
The image goes in Gallery in 'Restored 'folder.
Even though Gallery has 4 options in bottom of screen the Picture option Only has my Restored Images and not THE Picture I want as Home and Lockscreen.
As I said Yes I can use My jpeg as Homescreen Only as it gave me no other options, BUT when I copied this same Jpeg over to Restored Folder and opened up image there were the options to add to Hone and Lockscreen...so it worked.
Anyway all good, just the usual learning BS with Sammy and their control with OEM.
I am going from Android 6 to 10 in one hit, still learning.
Thanks.
