If there a way that I can have a live wallpaper for just the lockscreen and not homescreen?

Yes, at home screen press the menu key, select wallpaper, choose 'lock screen'.

I tried that and it doesn't save

I believe you still need a 3rd party app, like go locker, for lwp on lock screens. I know go has some, but I'm sure others do too. The downside is you're stuck with what they offer to work with their lockscreens, rather than being able to use any lwp.

I would love to help you, but help yourself first: ask a better question

Not an expert but,
It must be a conflict between the animations of the live wallpaper and the ripple effect.

Hey guys is there a way I can have a different wallpaper for the lockscreen than that of the homescreen? I know there was an option for this on the GSII under settings/ display, but I can't seem to find a solution for the GNex. Thanks in advance

That feature is not available on stock Android.

Only thing I can think of is WidgetLocker
an app called multi-picture live wallpaper can do this for you:
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture
it allows you to have a different wallpaper for various home screens and also lets you choose one for the lockscreen. I personally use the same wallpaper for each homescreen, so this app is just giving me a custom lock wallpaper.
Might be preferable over widgetlocker if you don't want to add any widgets to your lockscreen and prefer a stock feel.
Hello, all
I'm so love in [ROM] AOKP(Jellybean) 3rd Release! Task & Ktoonsez (10/3) (AT&T/Rogers), but the only thing that bothering me was that the lockscreen is not dimmed at all and it plainly shows the wallpaper.
I won't mind if I don't use the "weather" or "calender" feature showing up on the lock screen, however It is really hard to choose the right font color without the dimmed lockscreen to show the "weather" and "calender" clearly.
So what I wanted to ask was, if there's anyway to dim lockscreen?
Thanks!!
did you try looking into lockscreen settings?

Of course I did.
Oh, sorry about my bad English .. I think I should have asked for 'transparency' not 'dimming'

Okay, so I found the solution.
The problem was I've chosen the custom lockscreen wallpaper.
Once you choose your own lockscreen wallpaper, the lock screen shows the wallpaper itself covered by the 'calendar' and 'weather', if those are enabled.
So I resetted the custom lockscreen wallpaper and now I can see the 'weather' and 'calendar' on the little bit of darker background so that allows me to read more easily.

What would people recommend for a live wallpaper weather lock screen. I want it
Only on the lock screen not on my home Page..

You can just set lockscreen wallpaper only when you long press on home and use the stock windy weather lwp or whatever weather lwp you'd like. I prefer to use widgetlocker for my lockscreen with the built in lockscreen disabled just for all the customizations available using widgetlocker.
I like to break stuff!

It seems like some things automatically to both. I keep thinking I an going to get widget Locker but hate wasting money. I buy so many things just to find out they are not good enough. I like it when they have a trial Version to use first just for.. that reason.
Hmm I have no live wallpapers on my phone for lock screen. .windy only shows up under home screen not lock screen

Widgetlocker is definitely worth the $3 it makes the lockscreen really yours. Tons of themes, use your own widgets, customization you wont ever find on any stock lockscreen
And what you'll need to do for lwp on stock lockscreen is set a lwp for both home and lockscreen then go back and change just the wallpaper for the homescreen

I could have sworn I tried that. But I will try again . I had looked into it before but something I wanted to do could not be done so I didn't do it. .Course now I have no idea what that was. I think it was putting email widget on the lockscreen bur the author said default email app was not supported. .?
Yup when I pick the home screen from my gallery it automatically makes my la lock screen the Same

Strange. I tested mine last night I had to set both home and lock screen as a lwp and then go back and choose homescreen only and set a different wallpaper and my lwp stayed on my lockscreen. And I used the default lockscreen after disabling widgetlocker its even easier with widgetlocker just choose your lwp from settings > alternate wallpaper

Now that is weird, it should either change both to the same thing or leave the lockscreen alone altogether. not sure what could cause that to happen

I was wondering if anyone has found a way to set a live wallpaper as a lock screen. I know you can use widget locker and set the wallpaper on your background and it will show up on the lock screen as well, not looking for that. Any help would be awesome thanks.

On a TWiz ROM, go into Display settings->wallpaper, select "desktop and lockscreen". Select "live wallpapers"....Profit.
I feel like a half tard asking this but how so you change the lock screen wallpaper only. On my note 2 you can leave the home screen and the lock screen different

Take a look at the app Widget locker. Made by the same company that makes Nova Launcher. You have a ton of settings. Widgets, apps, custom sliders, themes, wallpapers, and just about anything you could want to help you customize your lockscreen.

That is a touchwiz feature and not available in stock android. However there are custom roms that have the feature available.
