Ok so I feel like a total noob here but I can't seem to find my live wallpapers. I have installed them but in the wallpapers tab in settings they are not there to select.
Can anyone point this fool in the right direction? Thanks, and I appreciate your time in advance.

IIRC if you have it set for the lock screen only it won't show the live wallpaper. You can only put live wallpapers on the home screen or home screen AND lock screen.

I looked for that option, used to be in the upper right corner, but it's not there anyone. Just have no clue on this live wallpaper thing.

As far as I can tell, they've separated the lockscreen from the home screen. You can set live wallpaper on the home by opening the lw app, but lockscreen is still a mystery for me. Pissing me off

I also can't figure this out... trying to set muzei as my home and lock screen...
I downloaded live wallpaper picker from the store and that has allowed me to change the home screen. Still at a loss on the lock screen though.
Anyone else got any ideas? Thanks again folks!

I got my live wallpaper working by going through themes. I found a theme I liked and applied it...live wallpaper came with the theme.... after I went back in and just changed the homescreen wallpaper to my liking leaving the live wallpaper on the lockscreen
has anyone found any live wallpapers that actually show as options under ''My Wallpapers" in "Wallpapers and Themes"? I was thinking it might be some apps that need an update because of some new system change Samsung's put in place but... if no Live Wallpapers at all are being recognised then they might just be trying to scrap the feature?? we shouldn't have to settle for a theme's live wallpaper as the only way to get one on the lock screen....
Having the same problem been trying to figure it out for HOURS lol..

I use 500 Firepaper as my Live wallpaper and it does not appear in TouchWiz Wallpaper option. I see it in Nova and Apex launchers but do not have the lock screen option in those
Freaking annoying.

Same. I have to set it from within the 500 firepaper config app... and there's no option to set it as lock screen.

I've downloaded a few themes from the theme store on my s7e which have "animated" or "live" lock screen wallpaper, and when you go to the lock screen it's just a black screen, nothing.
Black luxury has an aNimated lock screen wallpaper. It's very nice

Well maybe I should get some more sleep and not reply withouth thinking in the future... Or maybe I should just not reply at all Thanks for correcting me.
But if that is what you want. There is an option in LauncherPro for just that.
Preferences ---> Appearance Settings ---> Disable wallpaper scrolling
Which is good if you already use LauncherPro of course.
That will give you the same wall paper every page, I think the ts would like to set a different background at each page...which will be nice....but I didn't see it yet...
Wow multipicture works....but is a bit laggy...

This does exactly what I want, but it's a bit hanging and refreshing the background all the time, instead of just putting a fixed one

Has anyone had problems with the lock screen widgets. I apply a widget but my phone won't unlock. When I swipe to unlock it just go right back to the lock screen. It just loops over and over. The only way to unlock the phone is to swipe on one of the shortcuts on the bottom of the screen to go to app from the shortcut but not the home screen.

No problems here....which widget did you use? I just used Google Now Cards and its working for me just fine.
Yep, happened to me too with dashclock widget. Will download a new lock screen to try. Probably a stock android one on the play store.

Looks pretty bad yeah, I used the analog clocks instead, still doesn't look good. But the problem is the widgets are not clickable. I read something about them not being scrollable too, which may explain why they're not clickable. I'm looking for a lock screen replacement that allows for widgets but no dice yet. Only that ugly lockscreen widget app.

Yep, that's what I mean. That's the problem I'm getting. They offer like 7 different lock screens yet they don't offer the stock android one. Still looking for a replacement lock screen. If anyone has any ideas let me know.

To add lockscreen widgets, go to settings > personalize > lock screen and change it to widgets
Any widget I used gets stuck in a loop and I can't unlock the phone. I had "battery widget reborn" and when I try to place it even on the home screen it locks the screen and it gets stuck. Maybe it's a bug in "battery widget reborn"?
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk 4
I noticed to get the widgets to work, you have to drag down on the widget (you'll see a blue box being dragged down,) then you should be able to use it.
I ended up getting widget locker. It's actually pretty awesome. Thanks to HTC's 25 bucks haha. 3 bucks ain't so bad either. Now I have a stock lock screen with better widget support.
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I figured out the problem. I had to uninstall "battery reborn" app. It was causing a glitch in the lock screen. My widget now works like it should.

I couldn't find the original file. So I made a blank screen and cropped out my notification bar. It's from a Tab Pro 8.4. Hope it formats well to your note 8.

If you look at the stock wallpaper long enough you will find it is a rat climbing down a tree on the right side

Just select any other wallpaper. Or did i understand you wrong? :|
You could always use another launcher with more settings like nova there you can disable it.

Cheers guys, I've decided that I prefer Nova Prime anyway so it's no longer an issue

Hello. This is a screenshot of my girlfriends s5. Trying to figure out what this red film icon is. It's stuck on her screen. It is almost like it's part of the wallpaper because if you move between screens, it stays where it is. You can't click on it or long clock on it either. Tried changing wallpapers and it did not fix it. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
She is using Nova launcher, FYI.

Not sure what caused it. It was the same icon as play video or whatever it's called. Got rid of it by restarting her phone. Very strange.
