[Q] Change wallpaper and lock screen? - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys/Girls,
Was just wondering if there is a way i can change both at once or do i have to do them separately? I've been changing them separately however it's challenging to align both the wallpaper and lock screen perfectly.
Cheers.

I'm not completely sure what you're asking. Are you trying to get the stock Sony live wallpaper graphics on both the lock screen and home screen to line up to each other every time you unlock the phone? If so, that's simply not possible. Every time you swipe on your home screen, the wallpaper graphics will move and those same movements will not be mimicked on your lock screen.

Sorry i thought i may not have been clear enough. I just want to know if i can set a wallpaper for the homescreen and the lock screen at the same time without having to first go use as -> wallpaper and then again go to use as -> lock screen wallpaper and trying to crop both exactly the same.
Coming from a Samsung where there was an option to set an image wallpaper and lockscreen wallpaper at the same time.

I don't exactly have that option, what OS are you using?

Only Lollipop has the option, to change both Lockscreen and wallpaper simultaneously .

Can't change wallpaper??

While using touchflo and the htc black theme, everytime I change my wallpaper the only thing that happens is the background image to the startmenu being changed.
Ive seen pictures of diamonds with touchflo and the black theme having their background image changed.. Just dont know how.
Any ideas??
Thanks!
bump!
nobody knows how to change the wallpaper on with touchflo3d?!?!
EDIT: This is what I am referring to...

At this moment you can only change the wallpaper on the home screen I am sure a few of the top programmers on here and elsewhere are looking into it.
But that is what I am referrring to. I cant seem to change the wallpaper on the homescreen like the image above.
When I used a custom background in the today settings, all it does is change the background of the startmenu.

Go to the settings tab and select Wallpaper
I dont see that tab anywhere.. Could you tell me where it is?
If it makes a difference, im on the Telus' diamond handset.
fixed: finally figured out that it was the wallpaper option in the settings tab on the touchflo3d menu.... not so straight forward.
cheers for all the help.

[Q] Is it possible to change docking settings?

Hi there,
Apologies if this is a noobie question, but is it possible to change the docking settings from the blue background, and time/weather display? Or is there an app that will do the job?
I wondered if there might be something that could do a slide show of my pictures, or a screensaver - just something a little more entertaining for when I'm bored at work!
I did have a search of the forums, but couldn't see an immediate answer.
Many thanks in advance
Just get a live wallpaper from the market. I use one and its alright. Look..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_u8NhYBGRVY
Thanks for that - but a live wall paper is not the solution - I have a very nice Galaxy livepaper, but the moment I plug it into my dock/charger, I get this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
​
Is there anyway to change the setting for this?
Cheers
[ah... can't post links because I'm a noobie.. oh well...]
You can press the menu button on the bottom left of your device. That will bring up a menu and you can go into the setting and change things about the background. Cheers
That's excellent - just what I was after - thank you so much!
Hmmm... it shows my nice galaxy live wall paper for a bit, and then for some reason reverts back to the blue screen again - is there another setting somewhere?
Many thanks

Working and correctly aligned music controls

It works fine on TX. But shouldn't one of the 2 puzzle pics be a camera?

Yeah, but my attempts at that were not good. The camera shortcut still works though when you sldie right to left
Any chance of this to work on MDPI devices?
Working on Xperia S ^^
very nice...
Does this also work with pin / password or pattern?
Can you just have an icon appear so the message itself is not displayed?
Very nice anyway

[Q] slide lock screen dotted animation

Sorry for the n00bness but I already tried fiddling through settings and googling about this issue but I've found nothing.
Ok, so, I'm running Revo JB ROM ported by @addictz10 and I've set slide lockscreen, You know when you tap the screen anywhere, there's an animation with dots illuminating in sequence from the center of the 'lock' to the outside. Well, I can't get it. All I have is the Little dots illuminating only where I tap, but when I let go, they go away. So there's no animation. Heres a screenshot so you can get a better idea of what I'm talking about:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

I'd appreciate any help. Thank you for your time.
