Live wallpaper for lock screen only
The title says it.
How do I do this with out it also being on the home screen?
Not concerned about battery usage and not trying to buy a separate app to make it happen.
I'm trying to use a matrix live wallpaper from Zedge.
Also, how can I remove the status bar and phone logo from the lock screen as well.
I just want the matrix for my lock screen with nothing else except to use my fingerprint scanner.
Thank you.
Without root, you can't
i understand...thank you

you can change the lockscreen wallpaper by going into settings / display / screen display. There is a section for the lock screen. Just click on wallpaper and you can change it. Took me a while to figure that one out.

Looking to replace the lockscreen myself, but in the meantime you can at least change the image on the stock lockscreen by going into the gallery, selecting an image, hit menu->Set As->Lock screen wallpaper
better than nothing!
got it thanks
I used to use WidgetLocker on my Desire when it was still running Sense. It worked generally well. Sometimes it would clash with the Sense lock screen and I had to go through the Sense lock screen after the WidgetLocker lock screen. Though most of the time it worked fine. Maybe it wont have any problem with the Touchwiz lockscreen.

Try Ripple Lock, it's a Honeycomb lock with a single pulltab in the middle. It will replace your lockscreen without root, there is even an option to fix double lock (Galaxy S issue), you will need to enable mode 2.
here's what is looks like.....
I'm using widgetlocker. Put it on my phone about 5 seconds after turning it on. Has been working perfect with no issues.

I have a passcode enabled and my lockscreen is only the screen where you are suppose to enter the passcode. How would I make the lockscreen be a normal lockscreen where I have to slide to unlock and then enter my passcode?
Ditto...WidgetLocker for me as well. Simple quick and easy.
I use lockbot.

I often find myself wanting to show someone a picture or current screen display, but when I hand them my phone either touching the screen or one of the buttons or making that gesture suddenly changes the screen, or moves the picture. Is there some way to freeze the screen on purpose so it can be passed around safely?
I know about screen capture programs (Screenshot, Shootme) and the screen capture built into some ROMs Power Menu, but those don't keep the resulting scene on the screen (one needs to use a file program to find the graphic, which is clumsy and time consuming).
I agree, i always give my phone to my relatives or friends and they always press the back or home button somehow -.-!
One solution , would be to use a transparent lock screen with a very small unlock toggle ...
Lock it , hand it to them ...
Screenshot would do

This sounds just right, but is there such a lock screen available?

I have that program, and it works well, but after taking the shot one needs to recall the complex name and directory, and once found the viewing program has all the buttons active. I have a shortcut to Astro opening in the directory, but even with a half dozen thumbnails, it isn't clear sometimes which one I want to show. I don't see any option to freeze the view.

I don't have the link, but search around , there are some threads on transparent lockscreens ...
Not sure but you may be able to do it with just a transparent .png and setting that as your lockscreen background, but that is just a guess ....
Hi All,
I was reading an article today, and in it noticed an image of a circular unlock screen which allows you to access messages and call logs directly from the lock screen. The image I'm referring to can be found here;

Does anybody know how to use/install this on the Galaxy Nexus?
Regards,
Use this ROM:

Thanks for the quick reply. So is there no other way to achieve this than to flash a custom rom?
Not at present as it's a custom lock screen
You can do that with WidgetLocker. Don't believe all of the trash saying you need a custom ROM.

Locker Widgets or Themes
Would either the GO Locker or the Widget Locker allow a different lock screen when one is on Exchange and only the pin lock screen is allowed?
It would be nice to have an unlock method that is secure but yet something that can be down will no looking at the screen .....driving.

He's right except for one small detail
Widget Locker and Go Locker are trash compared to the stock lock screen because they don't function as cleanly and as perfectly as the stock lock screen.
So yeah, don't believe all that trash saying you need a custom ROM /s
except for the part where the custom lock screen in that ROM is 100x better and smoother than widget locker and go locker which suffer from that horrible 5 second lock problem.

Enable root helper in WidgetLocker. Bam. No delay. Complete customization. WL is buttery smooth for me.
RootzBoat v6.1 rom has functionality built in. I'm not sure if its a custom lockscreen or just something the modded in themselves.
But it's cool.
Hi anyone encounter this issue? Now my tab Swipe Unlock left only the standard effect, all other effects like Ripple or Blind etc option now no longer selectable.

Tell me, how stupid would you feel about Samsung when you realize the effects only work when you use Samsung's lockscreen wallpapers?
Ok I am totally speechless now... Thanks for helping me realize Samsung is fooling all of us...

i have rooted my tab s 8.5 (t705) and updated to nf8 but all of the unlock effects are still there. where did you go to enable these lock effects?
it is located in settings/device/lock screen/unlock effect and there are 6 options namely none, blind, brilliant cut, popping colors, watecolour and ripple.

Change to one of your own wallpapers and see if they still work.
I just put a custom lockscreen wallpaper and the effects still work here.

unlock effect still works even if i changed lockscreen wallpaper. the only wierd thing in my tab s is that whenever i chage my homescreen wallpaper, to a live one, it will go back to default wallpaper every time i restarted my tab, this does not happen when a plain wallpaper is selected.

Works with our Daisy
notch doesnt work for me
You can make notch border any size you would like...
Just put it on mine, really nice and very easy to customise.
I don't know if it's only because of my launcher (Lawnchair), but I can't set the app to only use the lock screen, it always changes lock and main screen. If I change back the main screen wallpaper to my usual one using my launcher the lock screen from the app is gone again.

I have the same result.
I do not think it is due to your launcher.
Unfortunate.
Can anyone send their settings that are the most suited to the notch in Mi A2 Lite? I tried to adjust, but something did not work out
