I'm running ShubCraft 1.5 and trying to find a way of changing the wallpaper in the default lockscreen. I have tried LockBot but it was very buggy, half the time didn't stop the default lock screen from appearing (meaning I had two lock screens) and seemed to effect battery life, not to mention removing my Handcent SMS notifications. It was basically unusable.
I have searched to no avail, does anyone know how to change the lockscreen wallpaper without effecting the default homesceeen one?
Cheers.
I know when I was playing with the cyanogen no them version there was two options for changing main and lock wallpaper. That may have something to do with Adw launcher and I take that off right away. so have a looksy at or around those settings.
Edit apparently when the phone locks what you're actually seen is you home wallpaper and thats why its the same.
So I just got my Samsung galaxy tab 10.1 and am loving it except for the fact that it wont connect to my Macbook pro. I'm wondering if anyone has figured out how to change the wallpaper on the lockscreen besides the ones that samsung has provided. I have three options wallpapers, gallery and live wallpapers and only the images (which are provided by samsung) in wallpapers can be applied to the lockscreen. It also makes you crop the picture for the lockscreen before applying and it makes the picture look grainy. Anyone figured a work around for this?
Start in the Gallery app and open the image you want to use. Then go through the "Set As" menu and you will eventually be given the option to choose either Desktop or Lockscreen wallpaper.
And unfortunately I dont think there is a way around the blurry cropping that happens when you set the lockscreen. At least I havent found anything yet.
I used a pretty large picture source and don't see any obvious grain on the lockscreen. Also, while I was forced to make a cropping selection, the actual area displayed on the lockscreen appears to be larger than my crop selection. I haven't played around with this too much because I like how it turned out and I don't want to mess it up.
I've recently flashed Tytung's Beta10 rom and when I set a wallpaper(HD) it appears as its good, but when I reboot the phone (Turn it off) it turns blurry or somewhat zoomed in.... is this an issue or am I doing something wrong? (More specif I used a nonscrollable HD pic from an app. ) Thanks in advance!
I had a similar issue with beta10, the wallpaper was not covering the whole screen. I just chose another one from the ones that came with ICS and this solved the problem. Try changing the wallpaper.
My thing is that I set a wallpaper, when I do it's perfect I crop it so the scroll thing wont bother me, but when I reboot, it blurrys...or it seems zoomed in as if the whole wallpaper was set -_-
I have the same issue... chose a wallpaper and always it zoomed in...
I can only see the left side of my car
I was glad to see that in KitKat they changed the wallpaper setter to simply set the wallpaper to full-screen without scrolling if you pick one that's the right resolution, e.g. 2560x1600. So you can see the entire picture, without using a separate app to set it. Unfortunately, it seems they couldn't even get this right. It sets fine initially, but after some time passes, the wallpaper randomly becomes zoomed in/cropped like it would have in the past. Setting it again fixes it, but only for awhile.
Does anyone have any insights into what's going on here?

I have the same problem on my wife's Moto X with 4.4. If you find a solution, please share it on here!
So after I removed the special offers on the lockscreen, it shows some (around 5 I guess?) stock wallpaper on the lockscreen routinely. I know the wallpaper can be changed in display > wallpaper, but I can't find the place to change the lockscreen wallpaper.
Is there a walk-around to achieve it?
I've got the 6th gen HD 8, but in mine, I browse photos using the Prime Photos app. When I see one I want to use, tap it so it displays full-screen size, then tap the 3 dots (menu) in the upper right corner of the pic. One of the choices is Wallpaper. On my 8 HD, choosing and confirming this will set it as both the lock screen wallpaper and the home screen wallpaper.

Thanks for helping. I really appreciate it. I was looking for the content related to "lockscreen wallpaper" and I didn't know that home screen wallpaper & lock screen wallpaper are changed at the same time.
Also, I can confirm that using your method and going to display > wallpaper have the same result.
There is a video which shows you how to do this

Totally unnecessary. Dragonfire1024 has demonstrated the way to change internal lockscreen wallpaper in his thread. As far as I know, that's the only way to customize the lockscreen wallpaper in a rotational way without using Amazon's app.
So...
What am i missing here? I've just changed my wallpaper, but my lock screen is still blissfully rotating pics from the folder of stock images that came pre-installed
EDIT found the answer in another thread. I mistakenly used Google Pics to change my wallpaper, not the control panel setting, which doesn't change the lockscreen.
On the other hand, this is a good work around to have different lock screen\wallpaper images.?

Sorry, but this was a year ago and I have no idea where I found it. Like I said in my comment though, my solution was to use the control panel. Also, did you pay to bypass the "sponsored" tablet? If not, you will always see the ads and never have control of your lock screen.
Other than that, I really can't offer much help. To be honest, I barely notice what my screen looks like these days. I use my Fire so infrequently I just open it, use it, and shut it off. So I don't know if the interface has changed.
Wish I could be of more help.
Disable the unwanted lock screen. Can you use Kustom Lock Screen Creator from Google Play Store
