Hello
I'm looking for an app which will change the lock screen wallpaper automatically. I tried the "Wallpaper Changer" from market. But it changes the home screen Wallpapers only. Any app there for lock screen? also I want to use the native lock screen itself. Thanx!
Why don't you try Settings>Display>Screen Display>Lock Screen Wallpaper
or you can go to a image the press the edit button and choose set as lock screen.
At least read the damn post!
The guy is asking for something that automatically changes the wallpaper, I would asume at a predefined or even random time.
@OP
I dont know of any app only for home screen wallpapers though, sorry cant be much of a help.

Yes I know how to change it manually. But wanted it auto like every few minutes or whenever I unlock the screen which would have been cool to look at different lock screen Wallpapers everytime u look at the screen
well thanx guys. Hope someone will make an app for this!
I use flikie HD to change my homescreen wallpaper, then I choose the lock screen option to change the picture to my wallpaper.which means it changes as per the schedule i set on flikie

Hi,
You can probably do that with "Tasker" but this is not the cheapest app

You can definitely do this with Tasker. As stated though not the cheapest app if this is the only thing you'll use it for. Steep learning curve too. Still, its an option.

It will be nice to select the photo automatically from an local album or even better from Picasa.

Use CM locker, its change your wallpaper daily.. Yes daily that's my problem, I need an app that change my lockscreen wallpaper every hour.
Hi guys, try "Hi Locker" from Lockdown Team. You can change it every 1 hour, 2 hours, etc.

Definitely go for Widgetlocker.
Widgetlocker!!! its brill
Like others have said, Widget Locker is probably the best. It's available for $0.99 in the Amazon App Store and it's one of their best selling apps (that's how I found out about it).
Thanks guys, just got it. agreed its the nuts!
the other little thing pissing me off, cant customise the powercontrol widget.
Anyway to get WidgetLocker to not unlock with home key press?

Yes, it got something to do with homehelper.
Go to advanced settings/homehelper/ and check the boxes for 'Homehelper Block Home & Block Home In Other Apps'.
That did the trick for me.

Same but I want something which works with Samsung's music player's lockscreen widget.
Where I don't need to unlock phone to change tracks, pause /play etc.
Anyone got any ideas???
You can change the background under Settings > Display > Screen display > Lock screen > Wallpaper

WidgetLocker has full widget capabilities. As long as it's a standard widget that can be added through the widget menu, you should be fine to add it to the WidgetLocker screen.

extended controls (0.99)
I'm using the stock android pattern lockscreen.
when I enable widget locker it appears an icon in the notification tab. Is there a way to remove that?

Extended Controls. Market search it. It is the best one you could ever imagine. It does cost, but I bought it (and I am one cheap-skate! ) Great app. Allows you to easily make the powercontrol widget, with a number of themes, or icon packs. Very useful app.
I remember when I bought it, there are a number of different apps that do the same thing. But this one just looked the best at the time, so have a quick read of the info on each app.
Hi Guys,
I want to know if there is any app to set/display the home screen wallpaper as it is (i.e. without stretching the wallpaper).
Currently I am using Multi-Live Wallaper to do so, but it makes my ARC a bit laggy..any other better alternatives.
EDIT: use WALLPAPER WIZZARDRII
Custom launchers (GO, ADW...) have the option to disable the wallpaper scrolling.

Any suggestions guys???

I think your only options are to make custom pages yourself with the set dimensions so it doesnt stretch out; or download a wall paper app, the one that i'm using is HD wallpapers, and when you find the one you want, they give you several wallpaper settings; 1 page, 2 page or full. So in theory, you are not stretching it out. Its hard to explain but give that app a try or make your own custom wallpaper with the proper dimensions.

Hi,
You should maybe look into an app like WidgetLocker from the market.
Search for one that will give you what you want.
Or even a different launcher.
The S4 does have 'daydream' in the display settings, which allows you to enable wallpapers among other things when your phone is docked or charging, or manually when not docked.

I've been looking around it doesn't seems to be a way to do that.
Just click and hold on your home screen... Select wallpaper and it will ask you if you have it on home screen, lock screen or both

Try that already but I don't get the choice to do it,it just sets the wallpaper for both automatically.

I use Google Wallpapers app that Pixel phones have. There are a lot of different wallpapers and you get the choice of home/lock screen or both.
I have the Abstruct app and I like it a lot. I was wondering is anyone here knows of a way to rotate through the wallpapers at a set interval.

Have you tried KLWP?
Just download all the wallpapers you want to rotate, remember the path where they're saved, then use this to set it up...
In KLWP select "background" and in bitmap change it to formula and enter $tu(rndimg, 15, "folderpathofimageshere")$ to change it every 15 minutes.
I considered doing something like that. But Abstruct has a few hundred wallpaper that I don't really want to download them all. I thought maybe there was an app that could use a wallpaper app as a source.
