Changing lock screen picture in 6.5

How do you change the lock in picture in 6.5
Thanks

Go to Settings\Multimedia\Photos and Videos (at least that's the path on my device) and then browse to the picture you want and then click and hold on the picture, a pop up menu will appear. Select set as Today Wallpaper and then do a soft reset.

camera button > bottom right button> the wheel looking icon > see what icon it has for storage
once you determine whether its internal or storage card, then slowly sift through your files

is there a way to change the settings where my pictures will go directly into my albums instead of going through all that just to get my saved pictures?

okay still nothing. i cant wind where my pictures are being saved at,

You want to save a picture attached to email right? Kinda tricky. When u got an email with attachment, download it, then press and hold the attachment. There will be an option to save it. Hope this what u need.
For the screenshot, it depends on what application u use to take the screenshot.

How to insert several pictures in an email fast! Solution: Post 4

First off, i did use the search on the forum and didnt find any clues! :/
google search terms were:
+hd2 +leo insert picture message email slow storage card site:http://forum.xda-developers.com
My problem is whenever i need to attach pictures to an email i take ages because accessing the pictures folder on storage card from "tmail.exe" is extremely SLOW! And on top of that i need to do it ONE by ONE! (i only have about 100 pics)
Is it my HD2 or it happens with you guys too? Is there any solution or way around it? I tried to see if there was any CACHE tweak for this problem but with no sucess!
Thanks in advance for all your anwsers!

instead of attaching a pic to an email, go to the picture u want, tap the screen once, tap on the double arrows icon,which gives u the email option, go from there.

Yes...but the problem persists if you want to add more than one picture...! Yesterday i took 5 minutes to add 6 pics...and i didnt even wait for the thumbnail to show, nor needed to scroll down the list or else i would have wasted several "5 minutes"....

ok. listen. it is quite simple...
open album, stay in thumbnail mode, press 'menu' (right onscreen soft key), 'share', 'mail', select pictures by pressing their thumbnail, 'ok' (left soft key).
how cool is that??

THAT IS VERY COOL!!! Thanks a lot...!!!
I just dont understand why cant we access with this ease, through mail app itself! But ok..this workaround suits me (and everybody, i think..)!!!

Two things you probably didn't know about the Mate 8

I discovered these merely by accident and never knew about them before so others may find them useful too!
1. Press the multitasking button (square) to see your thumbnails of running apps. Now tap and hold on anyone of them to get straight to the app info page where you can do things like alter the notifications, check the storage and battery use etc .
2. Using the keyboard with word prediction, you are given a list of words to choose from right above the keyboard. If there is a word you don't like, don't use, spelled incorrectly or accidentally added to the custom dictionary, you can stop it from appearing again. Just tap and hold on the word you want to remove from the custom dictionary and a pop up window will show - confirming your decision.
Hope these help.
Update: Add your new discoveries below...

Ok , lets take 2 gestures
Open gallery you will find on top 2 tabs one is album and other is photos tab on photos you will find photos classfied according to date
Then if you slide down there with your finger you will enter to camera.
Another one in camera if you slide up you enter gallery.
Try.

Also in the Gallery app, go to Photos tab and you will see 4 columns of photos. Do a reverse pinch to zoom gesture and you will now see tiny thumbnails in 9 columns. Tap and hold one one of these super tiny thumbnails and you will see a small zoomed image of it and you can drag your finger all over the screen (maintaining pressure) to see more zoomed images as your finger passes over them.
Finally when viewing an image full screen, reverse pinch to zoom to get to horizontal scroll mode to quickly navigate to other photos.

Moving Pics from 1 album to Another??

Does anyone know how I can move pics from camera album to another album??
Example: When I take a pic of my truck, that pic automatically goes to the album named "camera", now I want to move that truck pic to my album named "truck".
Any idea how to do this?
I thought I had already posted this, but I can't find my post.
I appreciate any help you can provide.
Thank you!

First go into your camera album select the pictures you want to move hold and long press till it's checked and a little box will appear in the uppwrbledt corners of each pic tap that box to check the other pictures you want to move. Then in the upper right corner you should see 3 dots lined up straight tap that should see an option that says move to album then tap the album you want to move it too....or at the top you can create an album...hope this helps.

That worked like a charm thank you. Let me ask this, I have other albums of various topics such as "work", when following your steps to move a pic it doesn't give me the same option to move pics from 1 album to another. Your steps only allow me to move pics out of the camera album.
EDIT: I'm trying to move pics from an album named "download", it will not allow me to move items from this album. Works great when moving from any other album.
Hope that makes since!

Huh, that's strange should be the same steps. May have to use "my files" then my device or as card (depending where you have them) and search for them there move them in the same manner as before.
Strange you cant move them I did notice I have pictures in my camera album that I moved already (still there for some reason) and they won't let me move them but I move all my pictures in the way i said.
