Lock screen brightness reduced - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I've just found an awesome wallpaper that I wanted to use as my lockscreen background however I've noticed that once I set it the color/brightness is not the same - much darker.
I am using Nova Launcher but obviously need to set lockscreen wallpaper through touchwiz. Is there any way to adjust the brightness?
Thanks!

Using a Live Wallpaper as lockscreen and a normal one as wallpaper

Hi,
I'm using Virtuous Affinity 2.0.5 with stock launcher and stock lockscreen.
Is it possible to use a simple image as wallpaper while using a Live Wallpaper as Lock screen background?
It is possible vice versa because one can set a live wallpaper as background and choose a custom image for the lock screen.
I'm pretty sure that's not possible, because live wallpaper is basically an app, and so is lockscreen, and it's simply not configured for it, but this is a good idea for a lockscreen app actually...

The stock lockscreen and a custom lockscreen app can show the current live wallpaper. But this requires the live wallpaper to be set a current home screen background.

[Q] Any scrolling wallpaper app with slideshow feature?

Any scrolling wallpaper app with slideshow feature?
So it could display highest quality scrolling wallpapers without reducing, or cropping, but also could auto change the wallpapers every X minutes or hours?
Are you talking about something like the HOX? When you change from a main screen to another the wallpaper scroll a bit, is that what you're talking about?
I do not own HOX, but scrolling wallpaper - we already have that on SGS3, just we set 1 photo for it to show.
What i want is to auto change the wallpapers, so I select a folder with wallpapers and it does the job
wallpaper changer on playstore do the job

Hi thanks so much for the app, I love this wallpaper changer!
There is a Thanks button for that
Multipicture live wallpaper is the best I have seen, you can set it so a different wallpaper comes up on every home screen, and you can chose set pictures for 1 home screen and cycle through a folder for the others! They cross fade into each other which looks great as well

Scrolling wallpaper feature is useless if you want to have different wallpaper on each screen

Lock Screen Brightness

Hi guys, sorry if this is a noob question. The S3 is my first android phone. Had all Iphones before it:laugh:
I installed Apex Launcher Pro together with the Holo Lockscreen running stock rom.
Problem is, the Lockscreen brightness is lower than the homescreen brightness. I've searched for every possible setting with no luck.
Am I missing something?

Lockscreen Wallpaper

hi guys,
so ive just came from a galaxy s4. oneplus 3 is a masive step up. This may sound stupid but how do i change the lock screen wallpaper, there where many ways to do it on the S4 but i just cant find a way to do it on the oneplus 3, thanks in advance
Long press empty space on display, pick wallpaper on lower left, it shows 2 wallpapers and you toggle between lock (L) and home (R)

I tried and could not for the life of me find where to set lockscreen wallpaper, I can only find the option to change desktop to whatever I wanted.
I CAN however, change the lockscreen background to one of my ugly photos that I took, but not the stock wallpapers if I use gallery to set it.
The main thing I really wanted to do is to change the lock screen wallpaper to a dynamic wallpaper called Starfield 2, it is a black background with start wizzing by type of wallpaper, and more likely than not it would be saving energy on an AMOLED display. Plus, they just looked so much better than a standard bright and colorful wallpaper that never changes.
I dont think u can do live wallpapers on the lockscreen

I uninstalled the stock gallery already so I can't check there, but if I go into my gallery (QuickPic) I can select a picture, then go to the top right three dots, "Use as" and then I have to option to set it as lockscreen picture.

not on oneplus 3, but you can do that easily on Sony Xperia Z2 and other products (I got Z2 and Z4 tablet here, both does that just fine).
Does anyone know, how to change wallpaper without stock launcher?
Or better, how to set system to use the same wallpaper for lockscreen as my launcher?
I know that this is an old thread, but I'd like to see on lockscreen the same wallpaper I set on the system.
Is there a way on OOS 3.2.6?

same way you set your home screen wallpaper
Anyone found a solution? I want to use the google wallpaper apps daily backgrounds but it can't apply lockscreen wallpapers, only homescreen. Can we just delete the lockscreen wallpaper with a root explorer?

Homescreens

Another happy new Mix owner here. Given that the main feature of this phone is the bezel-less screen, this makes the home screen layout and wallpaper choice particularly significant to the overall effect.
I usually go for something dark but in this case I have gone for bright and minimalist to bring out the edges of the screen.
What are others doing?
Love the Clock, Is it part of a theme or standalone?
It's a zooper widget from King Rollo collection.

I'm using the icon pack Clix, you should find it on the playstore
Here's mine - Using TSF launcher, shame it no longer seems to be supported, but it's an awesome super smooth launcher with Elun icon pack. The clock is a TSF animated widget.

Some of my screens, using c locker for my lock screen and it has my personal info so not sharing that.
Wall paper is a live wallpaper I set up for water ripple effect.
Home bottom got cut off a bit when I took screen shot, it's should be full screen. And should be no notification bar on top also.
...i need a better way to snap screenshot
Hi,
here is my homescreen ... I am awaiting xiaomi code for root my device and setup some details with xposed...
Futuristic
it took some time but it works, took the screen shot but the notification bar should be hidden
I'm new to android modding (its been 2 tough years with a company phone being an iphone 6 and 6s+) can I use an icon pack without using the entire launcher? I like miui - I just hate that they round the icons and I have no idea how to turn that off without an icon pack
