[Q] Restore default lockscreen wallpaper? - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the galaxy tab 7 and made an image the wallpaper for the lockscreen but didnt really like it yet i cant figure out how to change the lock screen to the way it was? No wallpaper just the side swiping buttons.

Aww somebody has to know, right?

I don't know the answer to your question. But i can offer a work around.
If all you want is a dark blank screen. . . . .
Then take a picture in the dark with no flash.
Save it to your gallery, then use that picture for your new lockscreen.
Good luck. . Jh

Thanks but no im trying to go back to the transparent lockscreen.

Now when you say 'transparent ' you mean "nothing" ?
As in your home screen wallpaper with the 'lock' slides?
If so. . .
Goto home screen
menu
settings
display
Wallpapers
lockscreen
choose 'none'
Hope this helps.
Good luck. . . Jh

Hmm i dont have a wallpaper option in the display menu. Even when I go to choose a wallpaper there's just simply no option for "none"

Multipicture live wallpaper question.

I did a search and pulled up nothing. My question is, is there a way to just set one wallpaper to work on all screens, so when you set scrolling wallpaper, it just scrolls to each side of the wallpaper??? The it's set up now, it puts a full wallpaper on each screen and stitches them all together, which kind of looks weird when you switch between them. If this can't be done, is there another app I can use or another way to get full screen wallpapers??
Anyone know.
Help someone???
can you re-explain your question.. im not understanding what it is that you are asking..
I have a live wallpaper that I have set.. and as I scroll the screen it stay right where it is.. no matter what I scroll to.
Yes you can. You need to disable transitions or animations. Have a dig through the live wallpaper settings and you should be able to find it.

Dig through the live wallpaper settings? Which ones? The ones in multi picture or are there some other wallpaper settings that I am unaware of? I am pretty sure that the OP was asking about getting a static wallpaper to span across all screens while also having the proper display resolution in both portrait and landscape mode. Something that is still evading me/us to this very day.
I really wish someone would come up with a fix for this.

That is what I am asking. When I set a non live wallpaper it wont allow scrolling wallpaper.
It sets a wallpaper for each screen and stitches them together.
I had same problem. Using ADW Launcher, went to adw settings and un-checked "allow wallpaper scrolling". Now just one wallpaper that my home screens scroll across.

Tried that, and then it doesn't scroll at all.

[Q] Can't change lockscreen wallpaper

Okay, I've looked everywhere for an answer and just can't find one that works.
I can't change my lockscreen wallpaper. I've tried various programs but what it all comes down to is the Stock Gallery (which actually does all the cropping.) force closes when it tries to load up.
<--- See the post count? I've been around the block. I've tried the OBVIOUS methods. I've tried a few not-so-obvious ones. So no stupid questions like "Did you go to settings?"
Currently running RocketRom ICS.
Can't go Settings -> Display -> Wallpapers -> Lockscreen. FC on gallery.
Cant go Gallery -> Set As -> Lockscreen Wallpaper. FC on gallery.
Already replaced Gallery3D.apk and GalleryGoogle.apk from a stock rom.
Noticed TwWallpaperChooser.apk wasn't in there, added it. Still FC on gallery.
I CAN change my home wallpaper.
I CAN open gallery normally.
It's something to do with the actual cropping of the image.
Anyone? Ideas?
Rocket ROM is based on the LP1 ICS leak. even in other Custom ROM also not possible to Change Lock screen. Only way i did, installed "Go Locker" .
See, I thought maybe it was a leak thing... but I remember being able to change it when I first got onto the leak.
I don't want a lock-screen replacement, that's for sure. Oh well - anyone else, any bright ideas?
I have the exact same problem after my 4.0.3 ICS update today. Has anyone found any solution???

Even I'm facing this problem, I'm on Stock ICS (India), I have just rooted my Android, using Dr. Ketan's Method, nothing else changes with ROM, but facing this problem
To change the lock screen wallpaper, first apply a live wallpaper. After that, any normal wallpaper will be set as a lock screen wallpaper too.
Don't forget to hit the "thanks" button.

Background wallpaper and lockscreen different

I am using google launcher and when I try and change my background it does not change the lockscreen background too.
When I go to change the lockscreen background in settings it does not offer the same options to choose from as my normal background...
Not Sure why you are posting this in the Galaxy S6 forum since the question is about Google Launcher. It's not a Galaxy s6 question but, a Google questions.
However, it's been a while since I used Google's Launcher. But, when you choose a wallpaper, it should ask if you want to use it for either the Home Screen / Lock Screen or both.

Easiest way to take care of that is to go to your gallery app or whatever you use to view the image, select "More" in the upper corner, then "Set as wallpaper", then select "Home AND Lock Screen". Profit.

i use the google now launcher too, and i have no problems with this. after you choose wallpapers in the home screen. slide all the way to the right and choose wallpapers again, there you can choose where you want to change your wallpaper, home screen, lockscreen or both.

Lockscreen wallpaper keeps reverting to stock

I seem to have an issue with my lockscreen wallpaper on my Huawei P20 Pro. No matter what I do it keeps reverting to stock within a few hours... And yes I have looked in themes and display settings and random wallpaper change is switched off.

I have noticed the same issue... I have turn off all stock lockscreen wallpapers and put my wallpapers (about 50) and after soome time it start play stock wallpapers again.
I remember in Mate 10 (or Mate 9} I could delete all stock wallpapers and only keep mine but I can't find a way to do it

I have try to delete stock wallpapers and seems to work for now but I need more time to check... You can check your own. First of all check that you have not select any stock Huawei wallpaper
Then go to lockscreen and see the first wallpaper.. scroll your finger from bottom, up to see shortcuts and scrolling photos press the "circle with the X button to delete it... Continue this until you delete all unwanted stock wallpapers. I hope that this will do the job.
1. Deselect all covers in the lockscreen settings
2. Select your picture in a gallery app, set as wallpaper, choose lockscreen only. Done

i did this , and it doesnt. omg.
delete all photos from the magazine unlock folder in the huawei folder - then check you have updates turned off for the magainze, etc - you can also pause the screens by swiping up when locked to get the mini bar for torch, calculator, etc - just press the pause button
mine has never updated since i done all this and can change lockscreeen or desktop picture when ever i want
I have the same problem except I can never display my images as covers in the locks reen. All other covers are unchecked and can't be deleted. I have read somewhere that you should deactivate and reactivate locks reen pw but it doesn't help for me.
I am not having this problem. Strange behaviour for some phones it seems.

well... yesterday somehow it started to work, after testing other themes, I reverted to the magazine lock screen and it worked... until this morning when stock started to show again... the only thing I did was to add the face recognition...
so there is smth not working correctly here... any one knows if there is a place where to report bugs at Huawei ? or is it useless to try ?

Lock screen wallpaper not working.

Hello all, I have a G973F that I rooted and deleted a bunch of crap off of. My lock screen wallpaper is black. Still has the clock and the quick launch icons. But when I try to change the wallpaper to an image nothing works. Is it possible I deleted something related to the live wallpapers or something like that?
If so what should I look for to re-install.
My home screen wallpaper is working fine.
Thanks
Hello Chris33333, do vice versa your bull**** removed if possible as you are master on your phone.
You explain your removed animation, screen background in developer or in parameter.
How do I know what to put back on the phone>? When I pinch the home screen there is no longer a "wallpaper" icon to select.
Hello Chris33333, you pinch the screen, I press the screen to be able to add an application or others.
you put yourself on home is press 3 to 4 seconds you will have wallpaper, style, themes widgets and parameter.
