No wallpaper on lockscreen? - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
So I suspected that it wasn't showing a wallpaper on the lockscreen because I was using live ones (forest and muzei), but I just tried one of the stock images and the lockscreen still looks black.
What am I missing?
I am using Nova as my launcher...could it be a conflict with that?

Settings > Display > wallpaper > lockscreen
Edit: or home and lockscreen if you want to set them both at the same time.

No problem mate.

I must go to settings-display-change both wallpaper on home and lock screen to change this. Only changing lock screen setting doesn't work, what's that?

How can a change lockscreen shortcuts?
Sent from my HTC Sensation using XDA Premium App
if you look the shortcuts on the lockscreen are the same as the ones on the stock dock. so if you change the dock shortcut this should also change the lockscreen shortcut..................sudeki300
Go to settings - personalize - lock screen - settings, you can change the apps there.

There is no option to change shortcuts :S And before I was able to make lock screen shortcuts in that menu now they must be same like in stock dock ... thats wired .. any ideas how can I set different shortcuts in lock screen without changing dock ?
I don't think you can, if you want to stick with the Sense launcher. It's an ICS thing, I'm afraid.

I believe we are talking about ice-cream sandwich here. There are only settings to change the lockscreen wallpapers.

I just dont get it why they remove that option from settings ? It doesnt make sense
Well yea but there was no dock in previous versions of Sense. So technically they didn't remove anything. It's just that you're stuck with having the same shortcuts on your dock, and you can only change it through your dock. I know, I found it weird at first too.

[help] Auto wallpaper scaling fix.

Hi there,
So I use Nova Launcher and I have styled it like the new 4.4 launcher where my main screen is to the left and others on the right. I really want this particular wallpaper and the main feature is in the centre. When I apply it moves to the center of my four pages but I want it centered on my 1 home screen. When I apply its fine but after about 3 mins it auto switches! Does someone have a fix?
Is it the launcher?
Also wallpaper scrolling on or off is no fix!
Thanks in advance here is some screen shots, first being what I want then what it does.
ALSo: cropping the photo zooms in SK that also no fix!

Use the portrait option while applying the wallpaper so that it remains the same on all the screens...(SS attached)

Thanks for the reply, but how do you get that option? I set my wallpaper via Gallery-> Select Photo->Set as Wallpaper

Go to the pic you want to set as the lock screen wallpaper and set it directly by the gallery options
Some devices don't allow changing the wallpaper on the lockscreen

Then it is surely a bug the rom itself has.

Weather on Lockscreen

I am trying to get the weather to display on my lock screen. It says "To view weather information on the lock screen, add the Samsung Weather widget to the home screen." I cant find this. Can someone explain how to get the weather on my lockscreen please?

I use Nova Launcher and find the Samsung weather widget doesn't show up there. If you switch to TouchWiz your can find the widget and add it there, then it will show up on the lock screen. I'm not sure if it will update properly though, I never see it because I forget to swipe over to it. Seems to me it might not be updating once you go back to Nova.

Mine works. Nothing special, just weather as well.
I'm on Verizon with my S8+. Did they disable this setting because I can't add weather to my lock screen.

Yes mine is a Verizon S8+, and I am on Tmobile, but I flashed the Canadian firmware on it
I am also unable to add this. Was anyone able to add theirs?
I use the elecont weather app: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0058EBNAO/ref=mas_ya_dp
Shows two rows on the lock screen with one row for this weeks' daily weather and the second row for next week. I didn't do anything odd just set up the nav bar display on pull down to show the same thing.
I'm using Nova Launcher.
I have the unlocked US version and the option to add the weather to the lock screen is not there, same as the Verizon users.
If anyone that has this option for having weather on the lockscreen and is rooted, is there a possibility that I could get a copy of your csc_features.xml. I am seeing if I can get this feature added to the US variants. Thanks in advance.
