I think its really strange since android is the most customizable system I have ever owned .....

I am on stock 4.0.4 and I can only select a live wallpaper for the home screen not the lock screen. But both Can use normal wallpaper... would be cool to do it the other way around....

Yeah ....since scrolling with a live Wallpaper is kinda of slow that's why I want to put it on the lock screen it looks cool

May be try go locker app and the themes of it have numerous live wallpapers

The problem is that I must use it with go lanucher and I would have to pay for the standalone version....... anything for free ?

I use Power Puddle which is a live wall paper on the lockscreen. The droid melts as the battery level drops.

use multipicture live wallpaper, available on the market, sets your wallpaper perfectly every time, no cropping needed

so i guess there isnt fix to it..no??
Im have the captain America one and its fine i get to hit the shield and it all works fine. no lag for me
I have no problems with any of the live wallpapers I've installed (shadow galaxy, beautiful widget weather, nexus honeycomb, I-O hyperspace, Matrix, Asus Water, swirling Galaxy, thunderstorm and a few others as well as the stock). Tey all run very smooth. But I do notice some occasional lag when swiping between screens or with window/app launching animations- i.e some stuttering as an app window maximizes up, when there is a live wallpaper running. I feel like this is more pronounced after the most recent OTA update so I'm wondering if some of the new scrollable widgets are putting strain on the system too.
One thing you can check is whether the particular wallpaper you'e using has a setting to turn up or down the cpu usage. Might help.

How do YOU customize your lockscreen?

I was wondering...for you guys on stock ROM (unrooted), is there anything cool/interesting that you do to customize your lockscreen?
Or is it just too wasteful in terms of RAM usage and battery life?
If you do anything unique besides default settings for your lockscreen post it here! with a screenshot too!

Werd....what kind of customizations did you use it for?
Widget Locker here too...
widget locker here as well. It the only way to go for customization similar to what you get on your homescreens.
Here's mine.
I have widget locker but stopped using it, It makes my device slugish, I went back to the stock lockscreen! Slugishness has gone and it still suits my theme/LWP

Ubuntu Theme for the Galaxy S Blaze 4G

Hello guys! There is now a Ubuntu Theme(NOT ROM) which is made by Armando Ferreira. Thanks to him we will be able to make our phone look like an Ubuntu Phone. When Ubuntu is released for Phones only the Nexus will be able to get it but hopefully soon our phone will be able too. Now getting to the Theme. This theme will change alot of things. This includes your lock screen, and home screens. Not your notification center to be more clear. Now here are details of how you can get this.
You must download all of these apps before you begin:
TSF Launcher: http://goo.gl/SAzNP
MIUI TSF Theme: http://goo.gl/hgzAX **This theme must be side loaded. (Download Dark Theme)
TSF Pendant Widget: http://goo.gl/JKMM1
Widget Locker: http://goo.gl/JU1hf
JB+ Clock App: http://goo.gl/lgUPW
UCCW: http://goo.gl/TZgw0
MultiPicture Live Wallpaper: http://goo.gl/DlD96
Minimal Reader Pro: http://goo.gl/8lT9z
Pure Music Widget: http://goo.gl/u5HrJ
Simple Calendar Widget: http://goo.gl/scgWA
Aix Weather Widget: http://goo.gl/jtP2Y
Google Drive: http://goo.gl/CS7Nc (not really needed)
BlingBoard Social: http://goo.gl/KTs6h
UBUNTUBOSS.ZIP RESTORE FILE: http://t.co/ttGe5Kl6
After you have downloaded all of those files. The UbuntuBoss.zip you will need to extract it. You will see a folder called "sd card". Open it and move everything inside it to your internal storage. After that open widget locker and go to settings then to Backup/Restore. Press restore. If you did it correctly you will see Ubuntu Lock. Click on that. You should see the lock screen. Click on tap to restore widget. If nothing happens go to UCCW and disable hot spot settings and try again. Next you add the Clock JB widget to it. Resize it to your fit to be more comfortable in your way
You have finished the lock screen now its time for the Home Screen. Open up TSF Launcher. Swipe to the right if the menu bar is not showing up. Click on the gear and then click themes. Now you click the MIUI theme that is in there. You have to restart TSF now. Swipe to left again and click the gear again... But click settings. Go all the way down and press restart. The screen should be clear. Nothing there. If not restart again. Swipe to fingers to the right to get to the Menu Bar. Now on the home screen hold down with one finger until you see the widgets, wallpaper, apps ,etc. Click wallpaper, then live wallpaper. You should see multi live wallpaper. Go to the gallery and it should be in order in an ubuntu folder. When you click on a photo it should say u1, u2, u3, and u5. Do that in order in the homescreen. After you have done that. Take one screen(delete it) by clicking on the bottom and delete it. Do this so the wallpaper is even.
You are done! All you have to do is customize it!

Anyone have wallpaper like in wallpaper travel ? I realy like it
One thing I noticed is that these travel wallpapers actually have a transparent notification bar just like the sSammy wallpapers.

yeah they're awesome....only annoying thing is that you can't make the slideshow interval short enough but never mind
I like this feature. But I have limited data, and this uses quite a lot. If there was an option to update only on Wi fi I would leave it on. But as there isn't it's not worth the data consumption for me
