Use different launcher like Nova or etc...3rd parties launcher usually have an option to set different wallpapers for home screen and lock screen

In fact Mi A3 by default do have the option to have different wallpapers for home screen and lock screen, you don't really need a 3rd party launcher for that.
Just long press on your home screen and select wallpaper, after choosing your desired wallpaper, press the check mark (Set wallpaper) on upper left hand corner, then you'll be prompted to choose an option of "Home Screen", "Lock Screen" or "Both".

Beautiful Widget Question

I go into Beautiful Widgets, set up all the options, save and exit, and it is not displaying at all. What am I missing?
Sorry, running an Autonooted NC.
Did you press and hold on the screen to add a item then widget?

When I press and hold on the screen the only option I get is to Change wallpaper. Nothing about adding to the screen
When I do click the Change Wallpaper I only goes to stock Wallpaper/Photo Gallery screen, nothing about Live Wallpaper.
Any thoughts?
Oh, you have to have a launcher screen up.
Like Zeam or ADW Launcher. Not the stock home screen.
Pretty sure you need a home screen replacement in order to use widgets. Check out adw or launcher pro.

[Q] Can't change lock screen in the first place?

I've scoured the internet for hours, still no answer.
I have Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, and I want to change my lock screen so that it isn't just what the home wallpaper is. This is what I do:
Gallery->picture I want->menu->more->set as->lock screen wallpaper
I'll then size the picture, and select, "save". Then the player says that it is setting the wallpaper and then the window goes away. I assume that means it's set it. However, when I go to the lock screen, nothing has changed.

Have you tried using different lock screens? When I tried that it didn't change my pattern lock background, but it did change when I switched to the default 'swipe glass to unlock' lockscreen.

That worked! Thanks so much!
I really wish I could use my pattern lock with it, but hey, I've got nothing to hide.
Dude, you probably should of left it alone! Some of us have done it, but there is a bug where there is no option to change back to homescreen wallpaper! This means you can't have a live wallpaper on your lockscreen, but I don't like live wallpapers anyway so Im okay.

[Q] Lock screen widgets in Settings?

Hello.
I am unable to find in Settings the option for choosing the lock screen widgets.
I enter this option only from the Add button from the lock screen. I have a Nexus 4 with Android 4.2.2.
Where can I find this option?
Thank you,
George.
There is no option in the Settinsg to choose lock screen widgets.. You cam choose them via the Add button which you have mentioned.. I would also like to mention that all the widgets you have in you phone might not be supported for the lock screen.. the specific widgets which has this capability will appear once you press the + button to add them..
Thanks
OK, thank you for the answer.
I saw that not all my widgets appear in the list, for security issues.

[Q] Start on home screen?

is there a way to have my phone go to the home screen (the one with weather clock, apps, and google search bar) when i press the home button from another panel, as opposed to it going to the screen with the social network, news, etc updates screen? it's kind of annoying that when i press the home button to use one of my app shortcuts it flips to a screen that i intentionally didn't set up because i have no intention of using it. can i get rid of that panel all together? i'm running stock rom unlocked and in the process of updating to kitkat (YAY!!!)

you have always been able to set any screen as the home screen
and sense 5.5 allows you to disable blinkfeed

IF you remove blinkfeed it will allow you to have that particular page as your "home screen", but if you tap once it should automatically go back to the far left screen beside blink feed.
