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 ?

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.

am having same problemo with LR6 !! trying since two days
one thing i never do is set live wallpaper for lockscreen ....but let me try...now
Is there any way for me to set my own wallpaper for my homescreen and lockscreen without using ICS's crappy cropping tool?
I know there's an app for your homescreen, but when it comes to lockscreen I can only go into the Themes app and set it from there. Even then, it is majorly zoomed in and blurry.
If it still like GB MIUI, go to lockscreen wallpaper in themes app and hit menu button, choose from gallery and there bam!

OK, now it won't even show a crop tool. It just automatically does whatever it wants for the lockscreen wallpaper. When I try to change my homescreen wallpaper through this method it still uses ICS cropping.
Try the free app QuickPic- when you go to set your wallpaper, it should come up as an option alongside Gallery or whatever. It has its own cropping tool and recognizes your setting for wallpaper, i.e. non-scrolling (fixed) or scrolling (scaled across homescreens) and allows you to crop accordingly.
edit: I am on an AOKP-based ROM and the lockscreen option lets you choose which cropping tool to use- not sure if your ROM will allow this...
I have a (rooted) P7-L10 running the latest update (2.3). I am unable to enable lockscreen widgets through Settings: Security as there is no such option available. Consequently, I am unable to install any lockscreen widgets. In fact, the only lockscreen option is the Huawei Unlock with no additional lockscreen pages, and no '+' sign to add any widgets, etc.
Any help to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated as I am extremely interested in using DashClock (especially with DashNotifier).
Thank you in advance for any guidance.

I just checked and when the option should appear if the "Huawei Unlock" method is used. The option doesn't appear if you use something else (at least not on my phone).
Where does the option to enable lockscreen widgets appear for you when Huawei Unlock is selected? I have it enabled as well, and cannot find te option anywhere.

just under, in the "security" panel. I wish I could post pictures but I ****ed up by deleting the systemui.apk and I'm waiting for someone to upload his so I could fix my phone.
Thank you for your replies. I guess it is just somehow missing from my system as there is no such option in the security panel no matter what unlocking option I choose.
If you or anyone else knows how I can get the option back, it would be greatly appreciated.

Use an other theme. For exemple, I use paper rhyme and I have this option. But you can't have widget as default, you have to switch everytime on lockscreen :/
It is probably caused by Nova Launcher which I am really like and do not want to give up.
Any way, I have moved on to Plan B, and installed KK Locker, which is working out really well.
Thank you both for trying to help...

I am using Nova Launcher and Widgets in the lock screen are working. Are you using the right procedure? After enabling in the Setting > Security > thick, in home screen swipe DOWN until you see a padlock icon at the bottom THEN swipe to left or right and you can add the Widget!
That's the whole problem Sergiopi; there is no 'Enable Lockscreen WIdgets" option in my Security settings panel for me to check.
I get the exact lock sign you mentioned in my main lockscreen only after I install and use KK Locker. Otherwise, no widget option and no lock upon swipe down.
Thank you!

Thank you Nomaro; that was it. The stupid 'Balance' theme disables lockscreen widgets and forces its own "Magazine Lock' on the lockscreen. I changed the theme as you suggested, and voila! the option to enable widgets showed up.
Thank all those who tried to help.
glad you got it working!
now a little question about widgets:
can one of you tell me how to remove the main widget (the clock) or use another widget as the "main page" for the lock screen? I can't find anything working on the internet as everything I found just tells we to "click" it and delete it by swiping up like for a widget on the home screen, except it doesn't work.
help please ^^
I had/have the same problem. I figured out that I need to change theme of lockscreen, but no widgets seem to be working, anyways, only those of system apps.
Is there a way to change the Lockscreen wallpaper? I downloaded widget locker but it keeps force closing when I try to change the wallpaper from there. Also is there a way to make led notifications when there's a text or email without root?

Do you have to be rooted to use that
Should off specified that but yes root is required.
I am using MultiPicture Live Wallpaper. No root is required. It changes normal wallpaper and lockscreen wallpaper and can also be set to rotate photos from several directories.

I tried it and it didn't quite work out for me : (
Did you Google search a modded stock launcher with this feature? If you know how you can use apktool to decompile the apk (don't know what the edit would be) then recompile and side load it to your device.
I have nova installed
And I downloaded widget locker but it keeps force closing
I think Widget locker hasn't been updated for a good while so more likely it's not supporting newer versions of Android.

I downloaded go locker and its working really well. Are there any others that anyone might suggest that doesn't have as many ads

This confused me too at first, as I switched to a custom launcher.
If you choose your wallpaper from the google now launcher thumbnail in wallpaper settings, you'll have the option to apply to homescreen, lockscreen, or both.
The magazine lock screen wallpapers can’t be found anywhere on the phone. I can’t find them in the Files and Gallery apps. It seems like we can only see them on the lock screen but can’t touch them. Could someone help me in connection with this issue?

You want the wallpapers or you want to choose your own wallpapers if so you have to look at your lockscreen swipe up from the bottom of the screen a menu will pop up now you can swipe left to right trough the preinstalled wallpapers, pause the current wallpaper, delete it or you can add your own wallpaper with the little portrait icon.. hope that helps!
