Lockscreen Homescreen Confusion ? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

hi,
sorry if this is a repost. A simple thing actually I wan to set live wallpaper on lockscreen and normal picture wallpaper on homescreen, but it's just not happening. anyone else have tried this and made it work ?
thanks in advance.

You can't set a live wallpaper on the lock screen because you'll be asking for trouble and samsung knows this. You can, however, have a static wallpaper set for the lock screen and a live wallpaper for the home screen (like I did).

well, I am not sure, but I can set live wallpaper on both lockscreen and homescreen by default, but as soon as I tend to change the homescreen wallpaper, it pops up a message that lockscreen will be changed to the same as well.

Thus going back to you can't set the lock screen with a live wallpaper.
Yes, you can set both the home screen and the lock screen a live wallpaper at the same thing but not separate since the wallpaper will continue to flow after you unlock the screen to the home screen but you can't set it so the lock screen has a live wallpaper to go to the home screen that's a static wallpaper as that causes problems.

well, thanks for the information, I will set to it for now, but I really do hope something to come in the future to make this work !
cheers mate...

[Q] Restore Lock Screen Wallpaper

Hi all,
Froyo 2.1.1 update as a setting called lock screen wallpaper, where you can (in the gallery), choose an image and save it as the lock screen wallpaper.
My question is:
After I did that how the hell can I revert back? I want NO lock screen wallpaper! I want the normal lock screen with the home screen wallpaper in the background.
Can someone help me with this issue?
Thanks,

After searching since yesterday finally find how to do it.
To anyone that want to change back the lock screen wallpaper to the default stock version here it is:
Settings/display/wallpapers/lock screen wallpaper and then just choose none.
Cheers,

You are picking the setting that is for the lock screen only as opposed to the one that sets home, and lock screen? Slso there is a free app called crop wallpaper in the play store that lets you set windscreen wallpaper, and lock screens.

Yes. If I choose the "Lock Screen Wallpaper" section only, it wont change. If I do "Home Screen Wallpaper" only, it changes both the home screen and the lock screen to the same wallpaper.
Could it be because im using a custom lockscreen? (agile lock)

It probably is the custom lockscreen, but you can also probably set your wallpaper through that app's settings.

Stock 3100 transparent lockscreen.

Anyone know how to make stock lockscreen into transparent lockscreen. Im using paper live wallpaper and i hate when i saw different wallpaper between home screen and lock screen. Yes i know i can use third party app but no third party lockscreen replacement app works in landscape mode except widgetlocker and i cant install widgetlocker for some reason(widget locker cannot be install. Please free up some space). I have 1.6 gb free memory. Idk why.
Unlock your device then tap and long press on home screen. You will notice that there are 3 options for changing wallpaper on home screen, lock screen or apply for both.
I cant make live wallpaper for lock screen but thanks anyway.. i think i need to live that way..

[Q] Stop Wallpaper Auto-Rotate

I have a Google Nexus 4 and Google Nexus 5.
I use GO Launcher Ex and GO Multiple Wallpaper.
I have 9 different pics as a separate wallpaper for each home screen. When I turn my phone sideways to landscape view it auto-rotates my screen like I want it to but the wallpaper also rotates and it only shows part of the wallpaper. I can easily push a widget toggle to turn off
auto-rotate but I want it to rotate. I don't want the wallpaper to rotate when the rest of the screen does.
Please help me figure this out. I attached screenshots of my home screens when it rotates.
Thanks in advance.

How to display different wallpaper for Desktop and Lock Screen?

Hey all. Gosh I feel like an idiot for posting but cant for the life of me figure this super basic thing out.
Im on a S7 Edge, using Nova Launcher, and the Goodluck UI. Wanted to mention all that as I think that is why Im having so much trouble. No matter what app, or setting on the phone, it makes the wallpaper the same for both the lock scree and desktop. Can someone tell me what steps work with the configuration I have
Thanks!
Usually you would use the wallpaper setting in Android itself and tell it to set the Homescreen/Lock screen separately using the dropdown at the top of the wallpaper choice screen, but iirc, Good lock has its own wallpaper setting, I don't use it so not sure where it is, but I'd have a look in Good lock settings to start
You can set the home screen however you want, but the lock screen has to be done a specific way. Go into the stock Gallery app, find the pic you want to use then hit "More" in the upper right corner. Then "Set as wallpaper" and choose which you want to set it for, home screen, lock screen, or both.
It's annoying to have to use the Gallery app as it has no way to filter out unwanted folders like all my music folders with album art, but it is the only way I've found so far to set different lock screen and home screen wallpapers.
