if it is the stock lock screen (6.5), then yes for sure (don't have 6.5.x so can't say, but assume so). if it is cookies lockscreen...not yet.
settings > personalize > lock screen wallpaper

yes...there are many options floating around.
some can be found in this sticky thread or i like [url="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=612083]this one.[/url]
cheers.
To change lockscreen wallpaper:
1) At the Home/Today screen, click on Start (top left hand corner)
2) Click on Settings icon
3) Click on Personalize bar
4) Click on "Lock screen wallpaper" option. Follow prompts from there.
For clock and battery display in the taskbar, I am using BattClock

Thanks so much installed BattClock and looks like working fine.
Is there a way to remove the lock screen?
Is there a way to remove the lock screen? I hate doing the little slide thing. This is my first phone that has one and it looks cool and all but I have never, ever turned a phone on by accident. I'd rather it was like my old HTC and I could just hit the power button.
go to: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Lockscreen and look for "Enable" and set it's dword to 0
[Q] the camera now shows a 'photos remaining" number in the upper left hand corner
I just noticed it today while i was taking some pictures. I rooted my phone and just have the stock rom on it so far and i installed the black status bar and am/pm removal mod, and changed some icons around. I cant imagine any of those would have caused the camera to show how many photos i can take.
any ideas? I cant find a setting anywhere in the camera app. Stock camera app, too.

Updated to 7.0 last night.... Everything works fine except the quick settings edit (see attached)
Anyone else seeing this?
I'm confused what the problem you're having is all you do on that screen is drag the toggle you want from the bottom and put it up top. Or just reorganize the ones up top.

Sorry i wasn't at all clear. If you look at the screen things like "aeroplane mode" and "do not disturb" are partly cropped out... The screenshot isn't cropped btw

Its perfectly fine on mine. A clear cache from recovery might work. If not just reinstall.
Hi y'all !
I just bought Nokia 6 last night and notice that there are some toggles missing in the notification bar which are available in my other phone running Android 7.0.
Such as the screenshot toggle, Volume toggle, sound profile toggle and so more, they are obviously not in the "Drag to add tiles". I hope Nokia didn't remove them.
Also, how i can make the battery percentage indicator appear next to the battery icon instead of inside the battery icon?
If you enabled System UI Tuner you can enable battery percentage.
To turn on Sytem UI Tuner, you need to press the little cog symbol in the corner of the toggle window until ut rotates. After that you find the system ui tuner menu in the bottom of the settings menu. And there under status bar you can enable battery percentage. As far as the other tiles are concerned, I don't know uf they are part of the rom.

thanks for the reply. But by turning on Sytem UI Tuner, i can only enable the battery percentage indicator INSIDE the battery icon which is too small to see...

Yeah, I know, sorry. But until some devs come along and actually start developing ROMs and stuff for this thing that's all we can get for now I assume.
By the way, the Gallery app is also missing from Nokia 6, Google photo is standard default photo viewing app now?

missing a lot of tiles bother me too, but there are apps out there that can add tiles, so it's not much a big problem.

the more i look at it, the more missing features i find. I just came across a review about this phone on YouTube, strangely enough there are some settings from the video are not available on my phone.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmj17fDxuYk
The missing settings i was talking about are at 3:03 and at 3:42 in the video.
Yup no Gallery app in this one. I don't like google fotos either, so I disabled it and installed Quick Pic instead. It's a good app.
Hello! Help with the decision, please!
I bought a Nokia 6 in China, the version was 7.0, and the function updated the update 7.1.1 and tried to install it via Recovery from the SD card, at the last stage received an error message. Now the phone is downloaded only in Recovery, and then the download is not. What can you recommend? How to restore the phone? What is the version of the firmware?
Well, adb sideload works on the phone. But I don't know any place to download Roms or OTA files.

the one in the video is the first release version (TA-1000, china exclusive i think). the launcher app is different from the Taiwan release version(TA-1003).
TA-1003's launcher app is a modified version of launcher3, while TA-1000's looks like it's called launcher+(at 3:08 in the video you linked.)

Anyone know how to do this on the nokia 6.1 plus?
I noticed that there is this something like a blur / weird effect near status bar like example on this lg g6 specific wallpaper on galaxybs8. Also, when using a plain black wallpaper on the top part of the screen, it's not pure black but some white/light in it. How to remove this?
Your Screen seems defective
Does it appear every where?

it's a screen shot dude
What you mean its a screen shot? Look at the google sign in the upper left corner it also looks strange. And if it appers on his screenshot its also visible on his display i guess.

Mate. Screenshots are software renders, they do not show display issues.
The "weird google icon" is a feature of the google launcher.
@OP, this is a known Samsung system ui thing, they apply a blur effect and it looks odd if you're using certain backgrounds and launchers.
I did not find a way to disable it in the native settings, perhaps a 3rd party app can help.

I have the same problem you have
I guess that's your launcher doing that effect. What launcher are you using?
I am using Pixel Launcher. It's not everywhere. Only noticeable on some specific wallpapers in homescreen.
So is there a solution to this matter?
The blur/gradient/tint/almost transparent shade ( call it whatever you want ) appears in home screen. If you see the wallpaper in gallery in full screen it appears fine . So there is nothing wrong with the screen. This effect exists with every launcher ( stock, nova etc). It has nothing to do with the launcher. And yes Nova status bar setting has been set to transparent. And yes shading has been set to off. It's clearly a setting from Samsung. So has anyone figure out how to disable this setting ?
Here is what we are talking about :
Finally a crazy solution!
For all of you who hate the gradient that Samsung puts on the status bar here is a "crazy" solution :
Samsung doesn't apply this effect when a live wallpaper is used! So you must :
1) Download the multipicture live wallpaper from playstore ( don't worry, it doesn't consume battery )
2) In the settings of the app do the following :
a. Select a single picture ( the one that you want to set as wallpaper ) , not an album of course.
b. Uncheck "show reflection" ( top and bottom )
c. Uncheck "double tap to change picture"
That's it! The ugly gradient is gone! Tested with Nova launcher but i am almost sure that it will work with any launcher.

After Oreo update the problem is fixed so there is no need any more to use any live wallpaper for this matter.
