[Q] Lockscreen Wallpaper in ICS - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Morning.
Hoping someone can help me with a work around or fix for applying lockscreen wallpapers.
I have been trying a few of the ICS roms out, today i am the HyDrOG3N one.
And for some reason when trying to set a lockscreen wallpapers it stops you selecting an area based on the portrait layout. meaning you cant display the whole of your selected image.
Also on the current rom it bugs out anyway and i cant change it anyway.
So guess what im asking is there a better way to set a lockscreen wallpaper on the current ics roms and why is it using the landscape area to set what you can have for the lockscreen?
Thanks.

[Q] Live wallpaper on lock screen?

Hi,
everybody knows about the bug that prevents the restoration of the original lock screen wallpaper. I fiddled around with my lock screen wallpapers, and now decided on a live wallpaper for my home screen which i also want on my lock screen.
Unfortunately, I have yet to find a way to do that. On my gf's nexus s, it is quite simple: just select the live wallpaper and it is set as your lock screen wallpaper too.
Anybody know how to do this on a sgs2?
Well at the moment you have to change your lockscreen.
You can get one from the market, widgetlocker or something.
personally i like to keep as little running as possible so just use the stock lockscreen.
If we could enable transparency on the lockscreen wallpaper
that would work but right now it just comes out black.
Im sure a good dev would be able to do that though.

[Q] Live Wallpaper ONLY on lockscreen

Hi,
Is there any way to chose live wallpaper only for lockscreen? I love GSIII flower with water effect I know I can set it for homescreen and then it will be on lockscreen, but I wan't it only for lockscreen. Any ideas, mods, 3rd app or something?
Cheers
not on a samsung rom...maybe aokp...
Hmm, I'm actualy using Wanam Lite 11.7, but I was very happy with Hydrog3n based on AOKP so maybe I go back. Could anyone confirm that is possible on AOKP?
samsung based roms support different lockscreen and homescreen wallpapers as well, see screenshot attached (LPD). i cannot tell whether both would let you choose live wallpapers and/or different live wallpapers from one another as i froze all live wallpapers and the live wallpaper picker with TB and couldn't be bothered to unfreeze to solve your problem which i have no major interest in
I know that, but in this menu you can only choose static wallpaper for lockscreen
ok thanks, i wasnt sure about that, as posted, live wallpapers are frozen on mine. but good to know.

native lockscreen replacement?

I'm just wondering if there is a way to replace the default lockscreen on a phone with one from the market or elsewhere (like the aosp lockscreen)
I've tried to find a diferent lockscreen for my captivate glide but all the ones I tried in the market have issues where they don't time out quickly enough (30seconds) or the don't fully suppress the native lockscreen.
Just wondering if someone smarter than could help me out.
I'm tired of being stuck with the touchwiz lockscreen.
Even if it just goes back to the stock android lockscreen I would be happy.

wallpaper issue in landscape mode (launcher and lockscreen)

Hi everybody,
Im currently cooking a rom and now i have this very strange issue.
In stock android (4.4.2) landscape mode was blocked for both lockscreen and launcher.
I then went on and replaced the lockscreen and the launcher, and added "log.tag.launcher_force_rotate=VERBOSE" to build prop.
Now both can be rotated just as i wanted it, but however when i rotate to landscape mode, wallpapers are resized incorrectly, leaving a black bar on the side
Also, when in landscpae mode, wallpaper doesnt scroll when moving through home screen.
Wallpapers are 2160x1920. Have a look at the screenshots to know what I mean!
Using some kind of live wallpaper (like muzei feg) the issue doesnt appear
Anyone knows where this comes from? I found several threads with this issue with google but no solution...
thanks in advance!
EDIT: Solved. Issue was in the launcher3.apk. I replaced it with SlimLauncher by slimrom all working fine now.

Wallpaper carousel

Hey everyone!
Im currently on the latest MIUI 10 Globe ROM and the wallpaper carousel simply doesn't work. If you turn it on for both home and lock screen it changes only the home screen, but even if you go into settings and choose to switch wallpaper with each unlock it doesn't do that. It only switches the home wallpaper once and that's it. Does anyone here have the same problem and maybe found the solution for it?
Does it work on stock ROM or the EU rom?
