Go to Settings>Display>Lockscreen & choose the photo you want and set it.
If you change it using this method & don't work,what do you mean by didn't allow ?

Yes, I used this method and it didn't allow me

General questions

Hey guys! Bought my z3 today and have a few questions hopefully you guys can help me with . Iam sure it will help others to .......
1, How do i get my wallpaper to only take up one homescreen? When i swipe left to right for example... the wallpaper moves which i would rather it NOT do?
2, Is it possible to make icons smaller? Ive put some apps on the homescreen and they look massive! Ideally would like them to look smaller
3, Can i scale widget size? I could on my last device but not on this? I want to make the clock widget bigger but cant?

Just because you called them general questions does not mean they go in the general section.
They are still questions that you want answers for.
Thread moved to the questions and answer section for obvious reasons

1. NO, for this use third party launcher.
2. As i know, no. You can only change font size (Settings > Display > Font size) - Maybe it will help you. For DPI change you need to root it, and to change build.prop to make things smaller or bigger.
3. Yes, select widget and drop it on same place, you will get dots for resize. Of course, if widget support it.

Thanks,Pity about the wallpaper! Would much rather if you could crop the image and not have to have the wallpaper panned out over the various home screens

Found a fix for the wallpaper issue ! Not ideal but it works, If you download backgrounds hd from the play store and choose your wallpaper from within that app , it gives you the option to crop the image and set it as a fixed wallpaper Just make sure 'scrollable' is NOT ticked! As i said,Not ideal but it works! Really dont like scrolling wallpapers !!

I also don't like scrolling wallpapers

how to change lockscreen wallpaper in cm12,13,14

Hi guys,
I am sharing what i learned.
I found it difficult to change lock screen wallpaper. YOU can just change Home wallpaper.
But
PHP:
this is because of Cm gallery don't have Set as lock screen wallpaper option
So Just download 'Album, gallery of Xperia. YOU can find it on xda.This will work on all mobile. And you can change lockscreen wallpaper as well as home but both r different.
Thats what i learned.
App link is in comment.

[Q/A] Request Themes, Fonts for EMUI [ALL VERSIONS]

Hello, How are you. The main purpose of creating tHIS thread is helping you by providing the Themes, Fonts and other modification helps. Post your Questions or request your items Down.

I dont like the default font but all the other fonts i tryed has no Lithuania letters in it :/ Can i apply any font with Lithuania support from downloading and using emui theme editor or it need to be special one ?

the biggest request for me is grace ux theme

@ thilak_devraj. i will soon drop link

sTefIx420 . you need lithuania font mate

here is your theme https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7-kW62k-BTFVjdTdmlnemo3Q0E/view

Can you please make a theme that's as close to stock as possible (EMUI 4.1)? I'm asking here rather than just switching back or downloading a stock one because of an issue: I try making my own dark theme via EMUI theme builder, but something went wrong. Some things that I turned black did not turn back to their default color when I switched back. Now, in certain screens, e.g. the edit contact screen, I have a black bar at the top with black (unreadable) links in it for save and cancel.

as a zooper/klwp user, i've never found a theme so far that doesn't change ALL the fonts on the phone, including the ones in the widgets, is it possible to customize everything else BUT the fonts? so it doesn't mess up my set ups

Try Font Reset Theme for EMUI from the Play Store. It should reset your font to default without affecting anything else.

Best theme for nonrooted users?(original launcher)

Hey guys!
I wanna ask advice cause im out of inspiration or rather gave up...
Currently the most "normal" theme I found is "blak ui" in the samsung themes, with that the lockscreen clock is normal [(not that retard ones like top hours bellow minutes) well if I set a different wallpaper as lockscreen it changes back to retard one ]
It all would be good, but no since there are a lot of icons, are not included in icon packs (on samsung themes) idk about you guys but, I either want a square icons or rounded ones when mix its annoy me...
Oh, and maybe cause im stupid, but I dont want to use Nova or any launcher (since my old memories from >2014 made me hate launchers) and i also love the orignal launcher...
You guys have some theme or any solution for my problem? (i saw you can make themes with samsung theme maker but u need to be a developer and I dont think they make everyone to developer)
Thanks for answers, and sorry for my grammar, one day ill learn
ps: would like something like this
https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ia0uJsycZRU/maxresdefault.jpg
square/dark ones
ps2: Also wondering in android there arent function liks "date and clock icons are changeing ? eg date icon would show the current date etc)
