Hello,
I noticed on the G3 you cannot set the lick screen wallpaper to be the same as the home screen.
On the other android phones I have had you can set this option, which allows your live wallpaper to be used as your lock screen.
Am I just not finding the setting?

I'm missing this too. Anyone?

Nevermind...d'oh.

Go to Settings >> Display >> Home Screen >> Wallpaper, and set your wallpaper using the "Gallery" app (first in the list on my G3). When you click OK you should get a pop-up confirmation dialog with a checkbox "Set on Lock screen". That'll set them both the same.

Yea that is for setting a static image. I am referring to the feature that seems to exist in all phones but this one, where you can set a live wallpaper as your home screen and then have the lock screen be that same live wallpaper.

No worries! It is a pretty neat feature. I use Muzei live wallpaper with the reddit plugin. It shows a new background from the sub reddit earthporn (beautiful landscapes and locations) every 60 minutes.

I always wanted to have a live wallpaper of the Earth based on my current location...or from orbit with a choice of orbital speed.
I have a feeling this might be related - but I also noticed that when you're setting a lockscreen wallpaper, it doesn't bring up any of the icon packs as options to pull a wallpaper from, like other phones do, and like it does when you set a homescreen wallpaper. Odd...

1920x1080 according to this wallpaper Asus provided.
1920x1280. problem is finding a background that looks good the way HC/ICS crops the image. If you pick something were the focus is close up and fills the screen it looks like crap when you crop it. The key is to choose a background were the focus is smaller and takes up less real estate, that way when you crop it you get what looks like a full image on your display.
1920x1408
You can find allot of info about wallpapers and Android cropping if you do a search. Take a look in the Galaxy tab/xoom/transformer section and you will find different ways on how to set wallpaper.
I personally like the app "wallpaper slideshow" no cropping.
place the image you like in a separate folder. Can place many pictures here and you can change your wallpaper with a dubbel tapp on the homescreen.
choose to set a live wallpaper and select wallpaper slideshow.
choose the folder you made.

This is the correct answer. This aspect wallpaper is designed to remain on screen at any orientation of the TFPrime.

I assume you're using a different launcher instead of touchwiz. If you still have touchwiz on there run that instead and use the wallpaper selector from there which allows you to change the locks creen wallpaper.

Hi guys,
Got a problem trying to set a wallpaper on 240dpi, I have tried both the stock gallery and quick pic to crop the images for the screen but both end up with the wallpaper being zoomed in.
No matter what I try I can't get the image to look right on the screen, any ideas?
Cheers in advance,
Blinky

Be more specific; do you mean the lockscreen or the home screen/s? If you have wallpaper scrolling enabled, this is probably why. If it is on the lockscreen, I am not so sure.

Cheers for the reply, I tried disabled wallpaper scrolling and it didn't sort it out. I did check the lock screen and the wallpaper acts the correct way there so it is just the home screen.
Any other ideas, using omega of it helps.

Few questions about setting my backgrounds. I just installed the super nexus Rom. First, I can't figure out how to set a lock screen picture at all. It's just transparent to my home screen pic.. can't figure how to do it separate. And second.. I can't figure out how to set a stationary full size background. I have a portrait style picture that I want as my backgrounds but any way I try it forces me to crop it and zooms in on the picture way too far.
Thanks

im not on this rom so not sure if that is a good answer for you......but in most roms im assuming it would be under settings>customization or rom control>lock screen>background. from there there should be some options like fill color, custom image and default wallpaper.
you can use QuickPic to choose a wallpaper and crop it o how you like and you can use a launcher like Apex or Nova and uncheck wallpaper scroll.

your on supernexus dont expect cm type features its meant to be an AOSP feel, as for cropping thats also part of aosp haha and many other roms... but a way around that is to either use
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...50YW1hbmVnaS53YWxscGFwZXIubXVsdGlwaWN0dXJlIl0.
or
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...S50d2lzdGVkYXBwcy53YWxscGFwZXJ3aXphcmRyaWkiXQ..
both apps can apply full wallpapers without the need to crop
I'm realizing that super nexus is super basic, huh.
Haha yeah maybe I'll take a look at the other roms. For now wallpaper wizardry did the trick along with magic lock app but kind of unnecessary.. :/

Hi,
How do you make it so that you can have the same animated background on the lockscreen as the homescreen?
go to settings -- personalization -- lock screen ....

but try this
I use dynamicnotifications from the play store. It has a option to use the home screen wallpaper as the lockscreen wallpaper. So just set a live wallpaper on your home screen and it will show up on the lockscreen also. FYI only the paid version allows you to use that option. It cost me 1.99usd
