Hey, I wanna set the lock screen wallpaper to be as the desktop wallpaper.
I tried to set it by choosing a wallpaper in the lock screen wallpapers section under "themes" but I didn't found where the stock wallpapers path is.
I'm on liquid smooth kitkat 3.2 milestone.
Thanks.
I don't think I got you right... If you wanna set a wallpaper you don't need to apply it via theme engine, you can choose any pic you have on your phone regardless of it's location. You just have to select it from "documents" or "gallery".

In Themes - Wallpapers I get only the wallpapers from the installed themes (I am on Android 5.1 tho). If you're looking for a wallpaper that comes with a theme, being it for desktop or screensaver, that pic is embedded in the theme apk. That's a zip file so you can open it with WinZip or similar program and look inside it for the pics you like. You can extract them from there, save them on your sdcard then set them as your desktop wallpaper if that's what you want

Check this app out: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.miui.home
Looks amazing; you can use any MIUI theme (.mtz) as the lockscreen. Get themes from here: http://www.miuithemes.com/ or in the app.
Should work on stock, CM7 etc

Beautiful, works on stock ROM with 2.3.4.
BUUUT, almost all beautiful themes are in chinese (pffff), and the theme downloads take soooo much to finish. Right now I'm downloading a theme and after 4-5 minutes it is on 23% of the download...
And it has got so much few customization options (how the hell do you change the background picture???), you cannot place widgets on the lockscreen...
I'll try it for a bit more, but I think widgetlocker is a better option.
Great, but dont know how i can use my own wallpaper from gallery or livewallpaper

In MiLocker click the Settings cog at the bottom, then 'Set lockscreen wallpaper'

We know it, but going there you just can set for wallpapers the images of this program or a transparent image, but you can't select an image from your own gallery.
After using it a bit, I have to say that WidgetLocker>>>>>>> this.

Ah sorry, didn't realise. Have you sent them feedback about that? Should be easy enough to add
Hey guys just wondering how I could place another folder of wallpapers under this setting option below, incase I'm not explaining this correctly I'm talking about the menu where it allows you to set no wallpaper , live wallpaper, and gallery. I'm running Soa build 4 by ptmr3.
Edit: aha I figured it out I need to create my own apk containing my wallpapers.
Thanks.

Edit: this menu I would like to put a folder of my own wallpapers like soa did? If that makes it any clearer.. :/
Can anyone tell me how or where can I find the location of the default wallpapers for the CyanogenMod 10.0 mod for the Xoom Z604. I would like to add my own pics and perhaps modify some. When I choose to change the wallpaper I have to choose the CM Wallpapers app. How can I add more or remove wallpapers from that app.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
your wallpapers are located in the launcher or in an other apk. Put the Wallpaper in the folder "Pictures"
There, they can also be activated by selection.

You can also just go to the gallery, choose your image, and use the option to set the picture as wallpaper. However, doing that way limits the picture with vertical and horizontal frame. I prefer 3rd party app to do that so it can have the whole picture as wallpaper. Questions do not belong in this section though
This seems like it should be simple! I have changed the wallpaper in Nova to a static image but the lockscreen still shows the Xperia live wallpaper. I tried switching back to Xperia launcher and setting it there but no luck. The lock screen still shows the live wallpaper instead.
Is there any way to set it to a static image?

Settings - personalization - lock screen or alternatively you can just go straight into your photo gallery , choose a pic and from the options select 'set as lock screen wallpaper'
I knew it would be something simple I was too dumb to find! Thanks
I wanna do the opposite. I've changed the theme and now I can't find a way to make the lockscreen wallpaper to be the same live wallpaper than my homescreen. I'm on kitkat rooted. help please =(

I don't think you can change lockscreen wallpaper to a live one, even rooted.
Am I just blind or is there not an option to choose a live wallpaper for the background on the S8+?
I'm using Nova launcher and it's just a long press on the desktop, choose wallpaper icon and then the live wallpapers are last in the list over to the right. That said, some of the stock wallpapers seem to stop and start for no reason!
I can't find it either on the stock launcher. I can't get rid of the infinity live wallpaper on the always on display either.
It's in settings > wallpapers for sick, it's the first four wallpapers with a tiny play button in the upper right corner.
They call them infinity wallpapers, you do it through their theme app thing

Which clock did you pick? Depending on which clock you picked, you're gonna see the live wallpaper on the AOD. I know you won't see the wallpaper if you pick the calendar one. That's the one I'm using.
It's the default set one.

Those are different from live wallpapers. I have several live wallpapers installed and none show up. I think this is a bug. I read somewhere earlier that this is fixed in Android 7.1.2 which I don't have yet. I'm on Verizon and am running 7.0.
Yeah I can't figure it out either...
I use 3d Parallax Backgrounds, and these live wallpapers seem fine. Although I have to use the app to set them. As I also don't see the stock option for live wallpaper.
Samsung removed it with nougat. Here a link to a app to use live wallpapers https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/themes/app-7-0-live-wallpaper-picker-home-lock-t3503347 Use the 1.21 final one

If you download a wallpaper called blow them all live wallpaper it comes with a separate app to apply this wallpaper but it also lists all other live wallpapers you have downloaded which don't show up on the phone itself so you can apply any live wallpaper you download through this app, there is a free and paid version of this app, the free one works fine for doing this, just open the app click set wallpaper and your list of all downloaded live wallpapers will pop up
anyone has the Whale Wallpaper of S8 ?
the one we see in Adds of S8
Solution!
As mentioned by someone else downloading "Blow them all Live Wallpaper" makes it possible to see all other live wallpapers you have downloaded. Go to the settings for the "Blow ...." and go to "set wallpaper". There they will be.
With all the live wallpapers I used you run the live wallpaper from it's app icon and it allows you to set it.
Easier solution
At the end of the route of "My Wallpapers" click the last thumbnail with the plus sign on it, then click the triple-dots and select Live Wallpapers. You should see you're installed live wallpapers.
Here's what I've been using to set them https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/themes/app-7-0-live-wallpaper-picker-home-lock-t3503347
Edit: doesn't work for me now, used to use on my s7 nougat

Go to Settings -> Wallpapers & Themes -> My Wallpapers -> Three Dots in upper right corner of screen -> Live Wallpapers. It should be the only option in the pop-up menu that appears. It has been there since day one on my verizon s8+.
I'm using the Live Wallpaper Picker from here on my S8+ and Note 8.

This is the right answer, folks. Samsung has certainly not removed a built-in way to do this, but the location of the option is buried a little deeper than it should be.
If you download an app that can display and make shortcuts to "activities" (Tasker, QuickShortcutMaker, probably many more), you can create a shortcut to the built-in activity to avoid having to use Samsung's theming app to apply an installed live wallpaper.
