Video wallpaper - lock screen only - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
I bought a GS9+ over the weekend, hated it's camera and exchanged it for a Pixel 2 XL.
One feature I did like was the ability to set a video to the lock screen wallpaper.
I've found a few apps that can set a video to a live wallpaper but they can only set the home wallpaper or both. I've yet to find an app that can set the lock screen wallpaper independently of the home screen wallpaper like Google photos does.
Any ideas?
Ta,
Kris

Nope. You can use Widget Locker from the market.

[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 Live Wallpaper

Is there a way to add live wallpaper to the lock screen. It has always been a feature on my previous Samsung phones (Note 3 and S3).
It seems that the hold up is the wallpaper chooser excludes the live wallpaper folder. Is there a wallpaper chooser app that will allow changes to wallpaper and lock screen wallpaper?
Googled it, because i want my lockscreen wallpaper to match my home screen (just like SGS, yeah). Someone on Phandroid forums says he emailed LG and they replied that it's not possible. Stupid restriction IMO. Hope one day we'll find a workaround.

[Q] Zoomed wallpaper

Hi,
Not new to XDA but new to this section. Bought a 10.1 yesterday and so far I am happy with it apart from 1 thing. Whenever I set a wallpaper it gets zoomed in. Even when I chose in Nova Launcher that it should be static. I know why it zooms coz it needs to fit the wallpaper so it scrolls.
Is there any way to get the wallpaper to look like it looks in the gallery?
Tried Wallpaper Wizardrii but can't get it roll the way I want it to.
Also tried Image 2 Wallpaper and same as above.
Also Zedge and Kitty Play won't play ball either.
This is super annoying.
Suggestions?
I think I might have solved it myself.
In the gallery when you do "set as" I chose Nova Wallpaper. Then it shows as a static wallpaper in its correct size, no zoom.

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?
