Thx all, it's solved already, thanks

Themer is your problem.

It's just a different Lockscreen wallpaper.
In themer most themes (if not all of them) does not modify your lockscreen wallpaper, giving the heavy customization that comes to your homescreen.
Although there is a trick to overcome this issue:
Using a file explorer go to sdcard/MyColorScreen/Themer/MyThemes/(folder with a long number)
Open Wall0.png using gallery app
Choose from the menu Set Picture as wallpaper
You should now have the same wallpaper as your homescreen.
Note that for some themes, the wallpaper doesn't always have a the same ratio, so it won't look good on your Lockscreen

Wallpaper on lock screen does not change ?

I use ADW Launcher and I can change my wallpaper on my homescreen but my lockscreen wallpapers always remain the same ! I have tried default launcher and there is the same thing, my wallpaper is on homescreen but when I lock my phone there is wallpaper that Ive had a week ago. What could be the problem and how can I change that lockscreen wallpaper ? I am really lost, dont have a clue. My phone is rooted.
Tnx a lot
EDIT: restart was needed, now it is also on the lockscreen. Modes can delete this.

[Q] Widget locker - is there a way to choose what part of the wallpaper to show?

Currently I have two homescreens with a scrollable wallpaper. When I first added the wallpaper, the widgetlocker screen would have the part of the wallpaper that is on screen two. Now it's moved to screen one for some reason and I'd like to change it back to the way it was as I'd moved the widgets around to fit in with the colour of the background.
Thanks
In the widgetlocker settings u can tick Alternate wallpaper and select the part which you want
Ah, I downloaded the wallpaper using the Backgrounds app. I dont think it saves to a place where I can view it.
edit: nevermind theres an option to save it on the app. Thanks!

Why don't my lockscreen icons change when i have a theme pack installed?

I use apex launcher with a custom theme pack that changes the icons. But on the lock screen the icons are the default ones so it makes it look weird when you transition from the lock screen to the phone screen.
They don't change because the lockscreen is part of the system not the launcher you use. Same reason why when you go to the multitasking screen the icons there aren't changed. There is an app called icon themer that changes your stock icons. Search it up and good luck!

Thanks, but my device isn't rooted. Oh well guess I'll just wait and hope it will be supported eventually.

You can use a custom lock screen app to change your lock screen like widget locker - no root required.

Choosing icons from another theme...

I think I did this back when I first got my G2, but I've forgotten how...
If you have one theme installed, how can you select specific icons from another theme?
In the theme I have installed, certain apps that happen to have icons defined by the theme naturally default to those theme styles. But the some of the stock icons are actually better, IMO. So, while I remain in this theme, can I select some stock icon styles?
Sorry if this has been explained too many times before.

Try pressing and holding the icon you want to change and then click the purple brush that appears.
Edit: by pressing and holding I mean long pressing
Thanks! Got that, but the icons that are offered are only from my selected theme - not from the stock LG theme.
I seem to recall that there is some other way - or an extension of this - that provides access to other icons outside of the selected theme.
Ah, sorry then. Been a while since I was completely stock. So I'm working off my memory. I was sure that you could still pick an icon somehow.
I used unicon for my themes until I just ended up using a different launcher. I'm not sure if it's any help.
No worries. I appreciate your input.
Hi,
I have done this but can't remember the app I used. It was called icon extractor or something and allowed you to extract icons from themes into your gallery.
Then when you long press the icon on your homescreen to get the purple indicator you can choose the icon from your gallery.
Nick.

LCARS (my first attempt)

I started playing with Zooper Pro and after figuring out how to use it, I think I did ok. I am a Star Trek fan, but found that most LCARS themes were too busy and not actually usable. This is my first attempt at making my own home screen, so feedback is welcome.
I'm using Nova Launcher on a Galaxy S7. The calendar is Simple Calendar Widget and the weather is Eye In The Sky. The folders (orange icons in the lower center) are a mix of Zooper widgets pointing to folders created in Folder Organizer. The icon pack is Whitcons
Still to do:
-Skin the folders themselves to look like an LCARS window opening up.
-Skin the app drawer to match
-Figure out how to theme the lockscreen as well without breaking Samsung Pay.
If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears. I'll tweak some things and post here. If not, I can post zips.

Thanks!
The "Environmental" section (weather) doesn't look right to me, but I can't figure out how to change it to make it work.
Awesome work you've done there. Is there still progress on the Widgets?
I'm very interested in it.
