You know how you can long press the screen on your phone and select "shortcut" and it lets you pick an app and pick a custom icon from the gallery?
How do you do this on Honeycomb?
Im thinking you are referring to adw and not the default launcher because that option is not available.

So through Settings -> Screen -> Lock screen heading / Wallpaper does not provide a method to access the stock ROM wallpapers. You can only see what is in the gallery. For me its all the pics from my Nook Magazines.
The funny thing is the default setting is one of the stock wallpapers. Am I missing a step, a backdoor, or app to find/access/extract those wallpapers for general use?

Long press on home screen.

Wallpapers again.
Lock Screen Wallpaper.
Awe, I have been using ADW home. So that was not an option there. thank you!

so I installed the latest update for TiBu, and I performed a system backup. after completion, my wallpaper reverted back to stock, and when I try to change it by long pressing on the home screen and selecting wallpapers, I get an error message saying that the "app is not installed".
I also tried going into the gallery app, selecting a picture, and choosing "set picture as", the app force closes.
I tried using the stock launcher and the holo launcher, but to no avail. I was on the modded framework.apk, but even after reverting back to the original framework (and disabling LMT), I still cannot change my wallpaper. I'm wondering if TiBu had anything to do with it?
Is there an app that actually applies a wallpaper?
thanks!
Zedge allows you to apply then from within the app

Good idea. I was able to get it to work via picasa tool app.
Still odd that I could no longer do it from the home screen.

weird, so this happened again! I performed a system data backup via TiBu, and the phone's wallpaper went back to stock - still cannot long press to change the wallpaper (or change it via gallery).
my only work around is to upload a pic to my picasa album, and then set it from there.
has anyone had this issue? I'm guessing I'm missing some app?

This sounds like one heck of an obnoxious hassle. Are you using a stock launcher? If not, each launcher has their gestures and such for what long pressing the screen would do. I'm assuming you're using the stock launcher but if not, check the gestures on the custom launcher.

i'm using holo launcher, but this occurs on both holo and stock. perhaps I need to install another launcher....
I apologize if this has been addressed before but I'm a little pressed for time right now. Has anyone else had the issue with their wallpaper sizes being different on the home screen and lock screen? As in when you unlock the device it seems as if the wallpaper zooms almost? If so is there a fix for it? I am currently on Apex Launcher if that means anything.
Thanks in advance

Yup mine does that too.
Using Nova Launcher with a PIN lockscreen and wallpaper set from gallery using a photo taken by S4 camera.
Edit: Just tried with different photos and still same resizing change from lockscreen to home screen. No idea why.

Go to playstore and download an app called picspeed. Use that app to set your wallpapers. It wont oversize the pics like the phone system does. So when you pic your wallpapers from gallery and it ask what app to install with click picsoeed. It has 3 box sizes to choose from. The good thing is you can use any wallpaper in your gallery it dont have to be a download from picspeed.

Was messing around with nova launcher today and changed the setting of whether the clock should be shown and where. I selected hide didn't like it and changed it back to stock. But is this correct in the lock screen? Clock hides in the notification bar.

It should not hide.
Its hides for me. Running PA 3.68 and Apex launcher.
I think it is supposed to hide as the time is shown in the lockscreen clock widget, and having the time show up in 2 places is redundant.
