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?

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?

I was hoping someone could help me sizing widgets for the nexus screen.
I wanted to make a grid that fit together with no spaces in between like on that market screenshot for the app.
My plan uses 4x1 and 2x1 widgets so I wont need the other sizes.
I had it set up pretty good on my lg but with the different screen sizes it doesnt match on the nexus.
I have my screen set to 5 rows and 4 columns so I was looking to do a 4x1 at the top then 6 2x1s and then a 4x1 at the bottom.
Any help would be much appreciated.

are those tiles or just hotspots? if the lines aren't visible you can just set it as your wallpaper and use DVR to create invisible icons using a "blank picture".
if not, find out what your phone resolution is and your gonna have to edit the picture to find the proper alignment to match the widget sizes...i have made a bunch of custom homescreens (its a pain to get the alignment right sometimes)..but if it looks good in the end, its worth it
it shouldnt be too difficult though, that set up isn't complicated

Thats a good idea, so your saying create it all as one picture and then set it to wallpaper then use invisible icons for widgets right?
The only problem I can see for that is what about the wallpaper for the rest of my screens?

1. yes
2. are you using scrolling wallpaper or is it static?
either way the concept will still work...just that scrolling wallpaper may take you longer to figure out the alignment
if you can post the picture you are going to use and an idea of what you want i can help you with more specific questions

I did something like that when I was using multiple wallpaper but I much prefer the scrolling wallpaper so I stopped using it.
How would this work with a scrollable wallpaper when you see the same part of the wallpaper on 2 separate screens?
This was the screen I had with multiple wallpaper.
The thats the wallpaper Im currently using.

ive actually never seen someone use a "tile" setup with scrolling wallpaper...it can be done but obviously there will be overlapping points..the icons would be on separate screens and with blank images so it would just be the wallpaper shifting not the icons (since they arent visible)
in my opinion, if you are going to use a tile set up it would be best to use static wallpaper...i know you posted a picture of the wallpaper but it doesnt really give me a clear idea as to what you are doing

What Im doing or trying to do is just what that screen shot is. Have a check list type screen to launch apps from.
I found a desktop visualizer addon called dvrimageslicer that I thought was the answer I was looking for but for some reason it only crops images with no gaps on the top and bottom. So it looks exactly how I want it to when I only use 4x1 widgets but when I use more than one widget on the same row it leaves a gap on the left and right sides of each widget.

sorry for the late response...by gap do you mean visual gap or space that you cant click? (like a blank unused icon space)
that setup is very simple
use an app like photoshop to design the layout as a background...then use blank icons as mentioned previously
the most difficult part of the entire thing is going to be getting the spacing right...but that you can done in a matter of minutes
I have a rooted galaxy s4, and I use Nova launcher pro. I have a theme that I really like, and when I go set my wallpaper, I can choose wallpapers from my themes. The theme I use is by Kovdev, all his work is awesome.
However, that's only the homescreen, I cannot for the life of me find a way to set a wallpaper that comes with a theme as my lockscreen. I know there must be something easy that I'm just missing
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks
Go to settings, my device, display, then wallpaper and you should be good to go bro

because usually the wallpaper you see in theme screenshots dont come with the theme. they are the authors personal wallpapers. there are exceptions, but not many
No.. What I'm saying is the theme comes with those wallpapers, when I just change the homescreen by long pressing and hitting wallpaper, I can choose from the theme. But I have no option for the lockscreen when I do that

Change wall paper on lock screen is the default TW launcher option.
you can do it from the stock launcher (don't know if wallpaper from Nova launcher will show up or not). If that's the case just save the wall paper to your gallery and chose from there. After you're done you can set Nova as default launcher again.
Use a root explorer and find the theme .apk in /data/app. Copy and paste the .apk somewhere else on your phone, unzip the .apk, find the folder the houses the wallpaper and pull out the wallpaper you want

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!

hello everyone, how to change the wallpaper for the lock screen under Nougat?
I use Nova for launcher.

Settings --> Display --> Wallpaper, and then pick Google Now Launcher even though you use Nova (I use Nova as well). When you select your pic, you will be prompted for lockscreen vs. homescreen vs. both. Pick lockscreen.
Nova will still be your launcher and everything will be the same, except you will now have separate wallpaper for your lockscreen.
Thank you

Do you know a way of clearing the lock sreen wallpaper. I have already set one with this method and now if I want the wallpaper to be the same on both home screen and lock screen, There doesn't seem to be any other choice but to do it this way again. I use Nova as well and now changing the wallpaper with Nova only changes the home screen. I would like to go back to being able to use nova to change both so I don't have to dive into the settings

My point was that if you set it with the Google now launcher once, you pretty much have to keep using the Google now launcher option. Unless you want your lock screen and home screen to be different

This is one of those magical opportunities where you can figure it out and share with the community. Or you can use the method I suggested which is only one additional step. Or you can use Action Launcher which natively allows you to select where to set the wallpaper.

Which is all good. I already knew how to set the lock screen wallpaper. Just wondering if there was a way to unset it so you didn't have to go through different launchers to do it. Guess it either hasn't been found or there's no current way. Maybe Nova just needs to be updated for that. Either way, If I find a way, I'll report back.

That's what I am thinking. The method I posted re: setting the lockscreen wallpaper really shouldn't be necessary -- you should be able to do it all from Nova.

It seems like you have a misconception as to "setting" a wallpaper. Once you set it, you can't "unset" it, you can only change it to something else. If you have set the lockscreen wallpaper to something, you would need to replace it with a different one in order for it to change, the device keeps no record of what wallpaper you had set before. It's just like Nova launcher, you can't just press "unset wallpaper" to go back to what you had before, you have to change it to a new one.
Stock android doesn't come with a lockscreen wallpaper option, so you have to "trick" it by changing the wallpaper on the stock launcher.

Correct. but I think that is probably the only way to convey what he is trying to say. On a completely fresh install of the OS and Nova, seeing the wallpaper (with Nova) changes both the lockscreen and homescreen wallpapers. If you use GNL to change them independently then from then on Nova only changes the homescreen wallpaper. So the question is out should be: How does one reset Nova's default handling of wallpapers?

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?
