I am finding unnecessarily difficult to set two different live wallpapers at the same time, one for the lockscreen and one for the home.
When I first applied one it would prompt between home only or home and lock screen. I tested the first option, it worked in separating the lock screen from the home.
Fair enough I thought, I picked the second option to set the lockscreen then, and planned to reapply the second live wallpaper as home only, so I'd be golden.
Except now it's not prompting me that message anymore. It will reapply to both the lock screen and the home without giving me any option.

Hello all. I have an HTC Inspire running CM7 stable. I've installed Go Locker from the market just so I could customize my lock screen a little more. I currently use Go Launcher and Go SMS, so I thought I'd just consolidate with Go Locker. In the settings for Go Locker, it shows Wallpaper as an option. When I choose Launcher background as the option and test the lock screen, I'm getting nothing. Just a black screen as if the phone is off. I have to hit the power button on the top of my phone multiple times to actually get anything on the screen. When it finally does show up, I see an overlay of the lock screen on top of my home screen. Choosing default background or Custom background works fine within the options. Any ideas here?
Is there anyway to set a different image for the lock screen and the home screen? I have tried Widgetlocker, however with that app, I can't get the words "Widgetlocker" and the grayish part on the top to disappear.
Something minor but very annoying. When I unlock my phone and go to the home screen, it takes a second for the home screen wallpaper to load. I am using the same Xperia image for both the Lock and home screen so it's annoying when it takes a second to load the home screen wallpaper when it's the same one. Anyone know a fix? Thank you.

I use Nova Launcher which lets you cache stuff, although you do lose some stock widgets if you use it.
That same behaviour shows on the Z3 Compact as well. However, as found there, it does not happen with all wallpapers. Some load slower, some come up instantly. I, for one, like the old "Metal Wallpaper" that was available on the Z1 and the Z1C best (no longer there on the Z3 series) and luckily that one loads in no-time. I've attached it (the Z1 full HD version) and you might want to give it a try and check.
This has been driving me batty for months. I note [email protected] is a senior XDA member so I'm hopeful I'll find a solution here.
I'm running Android 5.0.1 on an HTC One (M8). I've had Nova Prime launcher as default for a couple years and love it, but I cannot find the magic formula for designating my primary homescreen (the one with my clock app and primary app icons--there are two screens to the left; three to the right of this screen) as default. when I tap home twice and get all homescreens in view, there are white house icons above every screen EXCEPT the one I want as default, which shows a black house icon. When I want to go to the homescreen, any of the six may come up when home is tapped.
What I'm trying to do is set my chosen homescreen as default so it pops up whenever I tap home. Not sure if it could be a factor, but I'm also using the Next lockscreen widget as well.
It used to be pretty simple to designate the default homescreen, but either it's become more complicated (or I've gotten stupider)
Any help out there?
Thanks
Go into the home screen overview, then tap and hold the home icon of the screen you want to be your default. That icon should turn white and become the default screen.
Thanks, Scottjb
This is what I find bizarre--what you've suggested only seems to work in reverse: 5 of my homescreen icons are white houses--if I tap and hold on one of those it turns black, however if I tap and hold the black house on the screen I want to designate, absolutely nothing happens. Confused here!
How in the world can I change this image? Every app is only allowing me to change the home screen.
While I use Nova as my launcher...I believe it's the same for the default launcher...long press on the home screen, choose wallpaper, select the one you want and make sure it is used for both lock screen and home screen.
With the Home Launcher when you press on the home screen and select wallpaper, the image of your home screen appears above the selections but if you swipe slightly to the right the lock screen will appear and you will be able to change that one separately
Thanks!! I never realized the swipe was there.
