I am trying to change the default lock screen wallpaper on my Rom. I swapped out the new wallpaper, for the old one located in: system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/hdpi and, xhdpi, but the lockscreen remains stock!?
How can I change this so the stock wallpaper for the lockscreen, is my own custom wallpaper right from the get go (after setup) ???
What ROM are you on? This would help since I know SOME ROM developers changed a setting so it doesn't pull it from the framework-res.a pk but rather a wallpaper folder instead. Pull apart the whole ROM zip file and see if there is a WALLPAPER folder. If I remember correctly in the ROM I am thinking about it will be found at /system/wallpaper and not /system/framework-res folders.
Here you can test out this VR Theme format to test. It will ONLY change the lockscreen wallpaper and the homescreen wallpaper IF you have the same file structure. If you don't it won't change anything.
If it does change them to a Dark Blue picture then you can unzip the file I am linking, and switch out WHATEVER pic/s you want. Just make sure to use roughly the same size pic and rename them to match exactly. Hope this helps. Let me know if it doesn't change anything. Link http://db.tt/MUw2Ot7m
Also like I said before it WILL depend on WHAT ROM your using and WHAT firmware.

It's in framework-res apk under default_wallpaper and default_lockscreen_wallpaper. I believe it also is in system UI if I am not mistaken. I know I had to change it in two different APK's to get to default to a certain wallpaper when installed.

hi guys i just want to know how i can add custom wallpaper in a deodex jvs rom.......how i add mine with stock one......i probably search every part of my rom and didnt find stock wallpaper......any idea?
If you are looking for the stock one, you'll find it in /system/framework/framework-res.apk in the /res/drawable-hdpi folder.
If you replace that file with your own, it will be the default wallpaper when doing a factory reset or a wipe.
I seriously loathe the uber-colorful icons that TouchWiz has for things like the Camera, Gallery, Dialer, etc.
What do I need to do to change them to stock JellyBean icons? Root? Theme? Alternative launcher?
Thanx in advance.
It's super easy to change icons using Nova, & you don't need root. I don't have experience with other launchers, or methods.
ROM - Odexed Blue JB "Holy Grail" LJ7
Baseband - LJ7
Kernel - KT747 TW JB LJ7

Idk if it's the same on the s3 but it is easier if rooted I believe. Drag your rom that your theming onto your computer, find system ui. Apk and extract just that, then open it with 7zip or something like that and then it's in one of the folders inside of the res folder. I think that's where the icons are stored. As long as you don't change the names, you'll be fine. Just replace them and restart your phone. Or re flash using the modified rom
Download a launcher of your choice. My first choice for pimping the UI is sslauncher. Then find an icon pack you want to use. For simple icons that you can choose the colour of I recommend MetroStation.
Icons are normally change in most launchers by first placing them on you home screen and then long pressing them and choosing edit.
Good luck
Check out "mycolorscreen" for inspiration.
Thanx to all 3 of you.
Do any of the methods above help with the notification icons also? I find it really odd that the text messaging notification icon is an envelope... you know, like email.
Does anyone know where I can find my current custom wallpaper?
Google says, it should be a file named wallpaper in "/data/data/com.android.settings/files".
But in my XZ there is no folder "files" below "/data/data/com.android.settings/"
Neither the file named wallpaper ...
Why?
My wallpaper is from ext. card and I cropp it using Album.
Now for the second time my XZ "forgot" this wallpaper and I had to recreate it.
I want to put it in "system/etc/customization/content/com/sonyericsson/wallpaperpicker/wallpapers", so my XZ cannot forget it anymore or I can choose from there.
If anyone knows a better solution - welcome.
Of course most interesting is, why XZ "forgets" my custom wallpaper.
It happens after cleaning cache for user and system apps by TitaniumBackup Pro, automatically, with reboot - every monday at 4.30 a.m.
So maybe the current custom wallpaper is in some system app cache?!

Go to play store and search for static live wallpaper. Download it and set your wallpaper. The app will save your wallpaper so there should not be any data wipe causing problems as it is all in the app settings.

Thank you - I already thought about using apps.
This app is new to me - maybe I'll try it.
But first I'd lile to try to solve it the way I chose ...
So I'm still searching for the path ...
Btw. - could someone (Mods) please put this thread to Q&A into the forum for Xperia Z?
I wonder why I postet in forum for Xperia Arc - sry
Problem solved by myself:
The path is "data/system/users/0/"
Copied my current wallpaper to "system/etc/customization/content/com/sonyericsson/wallpaperpicker/wallpapers" and added a small Version with "_small" at the end of the filename, size 320 x 280.
Now I can select this wallpaper from settings - display - Xperia-wallpapers.
Thats what I wanted :victory:
Running 4.4.2/ beanstalk on att galaxy 3. Can someone tell me how to get the beanstalk wallpapers on my lockscreen but different wallpapers on the home screen. I can get both wallpapers to be beanstalk. I'm trying to make them different. I can change the lockscreen to custom, which is separate, but can't access the beanstalk papers app from there. Can't find the raw wallpapers anywhere to put in gallery.

hey, to change the lockscreen wallpaper go to : Settings > Lockscreen > Misc > Custom Lock Screen
for the actual beanstalk wallpapers try searching for a image format (.jpg , .bmp , ...... ) in a root explorer app , the images must be in
the root storage somewhere
Anybody know the folder location of the OnePlus 9 Pro systemwide fonts? Want to overwrite them with a custom font using the default font names after backing them up.
Nevermind, I have finally found the way to change my fonts to a custom font! With a custom boot animation, I finally have my phone the way I want it!!!! Yippee!!!!
Be prepared for your lock screen clock to likely show squares cos half the fonts don't show : correctly
How did you changed the font ? You rooted the phone ?
