I got this device for my parents. So I'm not going through trouble of rooting and flashing custom roms.
So I thought to debloat all the miui stuff.
By far I've pretty much been successful, disabling apps through adb.
What I can't get around is the fact that there is a custom mechanism through which lock screen is being shown. This app called Theme manager (com.android.thememanager) is enabling something called wallpaper crousel.
Now I've disabled both, but doing so sets a default static wallpaper. I want it to be same as home screen (rotating Goohle wallpapers). But there seems no way to do it.
Any help would be appreciated, just want to get to stock lock screen or at least set same home screen / lock screen wallpapers.
I have a rick that worked. go themes than go to live wallpapers set any one live wallpaper from the themes app on both homescreen and lockscreen now go to google wallpaper app and set a wallpaper on homescreen and lockscreen this will work on recent miui 10 roms.

they kind of screwed up when making this change. if you change the lockscreen wallpaper by using the plus icon in the top right, you'll only be able to use the stock wallpapers. however, if you go into settings->screen->wallpaper(or something like that, I don't have my tab on me), you'll only be able to pick from images in your gallery. you should be able to do either in both places but.. oh well
I was frustrated by the lack of lockscreen wallpapers until I discovered that if you go to the Gallery app, and select a photo, you can set it as your lock screen background using the Gallery settings menu.
Hello everyone. I seem to have a bit of a problem regarding live wallpapers with the new 7.0 Nougat update. I am currently using the Galaxy Pack app from Play Store as my live wallpaper and I was using it on both my home screen and lock screen. Now here's the problem, after the update I tested out some stuff (including changing the wallpapers) and now I cannot put the live wallpaper back on the lock screen. On the home screen it works fine. When I try to select a static picture as my wallpaper, after I select it, it asks me (Do you want this on your home screen, lock screen, or both?), but when I select the Galaxy Pack wallpaper it just sends me on the app's menu where I click set wallpaper and only the home screen one applies. I have tried different launchers including Nova launcher (The one I currently use) and Google Now Launcher, but nothing lets me put the Galaxy Pack LW as a lock screen wallpaper. Please help.
Also on a side note, does anyone know how to set the settings, quick settings tab, etc. on dark(black) theme? I hate all the white of it. Is it possible to do this at all? (without rooting)
Just downloaded planety of live wallpapers. None of them is working on the lockscreen, nothing really can be done here. But changing theme to any other colour is simple, just open the Samsung themes app and set the dark one.

All right. Thank you for responding. I hope they fix the live wallpaper problem soon. And many thanks for the dark theme. Cheers.
every other device has the option to set as various wallpapers but this only lets me set the desktop wallpaper which becomes the defacto lock screen wallpaper. tried with quickpic, googles photos app and the inbuilt gallery but nothing.
in wallpaper under settings i get a list of app to set it with but nothing else.
on 6.0.1 btw.
I've rooted my HD 10 2017 (5.6.0.0), installed google services/play store etc, then unrooted. One thing I don't see how to change is the lockscreen wallpapers. Whenever I turn on the display there's another wallpaper there. They're very nice but how do I replace them with a single wallpaper, such as the same one I'm using when unlocked?
Perhaps related - the app Magic Fluids has an option for live wallpapers but it doesn't work on this device. I wonder if it's for a related reason?
I did disable a bunch of amazon apps but I was fairly careful and I don't remember any mentioning wallpapers.

The simple no frills way... Settings --> Display --> Wallpaper
Your wallpaper and lock screen background will be the same. There may be some apps out there on Google play that will set each individually, but I haven't tried yet. I only got my HD10 yesterday and rooted and installed all the Google stuff. Pleasantly surprised I got YouTubeTV to work. Love this tablet so far.
EDIT.. answered my own question... I installed Google Wallpapers and set a wallpaper there and it changed my home screen but my lock screen seems to be controlled by the Amazon wallpaper settings. So set your lock screen wallpaper first via the settings menu, and then go get Google wallpapers (others may work too) and set your homescreen.
Hello.
I have been attempting to use the super wallpapers ported from MIUI 12 since, as far as I know, the Note 7 does not support this feature.
I followed the instructions and downloaded the apks, installing them and then applying them through the Google Wallpapers app. While this does apply the super wallpaper to the home screen, the lock screen is left untouched, continuing to show whatever wallpaper was added using the stock Themes or Gallery apps. I did a bit of googling and tried to use an older tactic that seemed to work for some users on MIUI 11: set a video wallpaper from the stock Gallery app, and whatever live wallpaper that was added on top of it from Google Wallpapers would appear to overlay on top of the non-renderable video. This unfortunately did not work due to me having a system wallpaper installed, which appears to continue to exist under the gallery-applied wallpaper. This applies for any wallpaper added from the Themes app.
I decided to uninstall the Themes and Themes Module system apps using Termux and Debloater (Terminal Emulator) from Magisk. This seemed to leave the last-installed wallpaper from the Themes and/or Gallery app stuck on the lock screen, with no viable way to change it. After reinstalling the two system apps, the Themes app can no longer connect to servers, giving an error when trying to load wallpapers and crashing when selecting themes from My Page. I am essentially blocked from changing my lock screen wallpaper from the Themes app, and setting a wallpaper from Gallery also gives an error "cannot load wallpaper."
Aside from this, there are no other issues with my device. Any suggestions? Thank you.
My device has stable MIUI Global 12.0.1 and Orangefox Recovery.
