Change lockscreen image possible? (no theme center) - Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers

Hi all,
I've searched the internet, but haven't found a way to set a self-chosen image for the lenovo p2. When I set a background, I don't get a option to choose the lockscreen too.
Any way to achieve this is, is welcome. I'm rooted on the stock rom (S062). Is it possible to set my own lockscreen image instead of the theme center?

I set background image from mix explorer. A black background and it ask for set desktop background or desktop + lock screen background.

You download the image and set it with a file explorer? I use ES file Explorer and use apps like backdrops to choose an image.

I had the same problem, and the solution was still on the "Themes" application.
Setting the lockscreen wallpaper with Nova Launcher didn't work for me. People helped me and this solution worked for me.
On the "Themes" application :
- Access the third tab ("Gallery" I think)
- Touch the first option ("Access Gallery")
- Select your custom picture
- When you are going to comfirm, I'm able to choose between 3 options : "Set as desktop wallpaper", "Set as lockscreen wallpaper" and "set both".
But I had an issue with that. I can't set up big wallpapers (big filesize). The app just crashes.
You still have to download the image

Thank you very much.
The option you have suggested worked for me.

bro go to your image in FILE MANAGER, there you will find the option to choose wallper,lock screen wallpaper or both..simple

Just go to setting if you are using touchFLO, on the menu that slides below and choose wallpaper (home wallpaper) select no whe it ask to change default wallpaper and choose your picture, don't go to today or change wallpaper from the picture viewer it doesn't work, this problen is not fixed in the original rom.

as far as I remember changing it on today would only be seen if you can see the today screen and with TF3D running , you can't see it
TF3D is effectively an app that hijacks the screen so it's background is the one you should change
if you are using TF3D you need to scroll to the settings tab on TF and choose wallpaper there.

multiple backgrounds?

Hi all,
Is it possible to set multiple backgrounds at the Touch HD with original ROM?
For my home screen I want to use one wallpaper, for all the other screens (email, weather etc) I want to use another (transparant) wallpaper..
Is this possible, and can anybody tell me how to do this?
Argh..
I've read -somewhere- that this has to be possible... But can't find it anymore!
Does really nobody knows if it's possible to set another wallpaper at your home tab than on all the other tabs??
yes, you can use one background for your home tab and a different one for the other tabs. you can install a background for all tabs and then select a wallpaper for just the home screen.

How can I do that??
find the background you want to use for all of tabs, install it and then use the Manila settings to set the wallpaper for your home tab. have you taken time to explore and understand your device? i ask, because this is a simple, easy and straight foward task.

Thnx. I understand my device quite well.. But really can't get this done.
I use the 'background for all tabs CAB' which I've found somewhere overhere. When I use this, the wallpaper I choose is set on all tabs.
When I install a wallpaper, I go to the 'settings' tab, choose 'background' and choose an image overhere.
Where can I find the 'manila settings' for my home tab, to choose another wallpaper for this tab??

After installing that cab and setting a wallpaper, that wallpaper is used on all tabs (including home tab), and that's NOT what I want
I've got 2 .jpeg files. I want one of them ONLY as wallpaper on my home tab, the second .jpeg I want as wallpaper on all other tabs...

Tried it, but it gives white blocks on my TF3D slidebar..
Too bad, really can't get this done..
When I post the 2 images overhere, is there someone who can make a cab to do this?
It should work with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529730
But still can't get it done..
Who can help me, please?

Original WM6 Lockscreen - how to on/off it?

Hello.
After uninstaling CHT2 (where i made changes with lockscreen) my Manila interface load some original lockscreen (on screen attached).
I was suprised becouse its look pretty well. Only arrange of slider and clock is not comfortable but idea is great.
My question is:
How to switch between new-manila and windows-original lockscreens?
How to find display files to modify place of those graphics/fonts?
Hello
This mode is possible only with registry editor
Recipe:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\shell\lockscreen\oem
CustomUIDLL
value:\windows\CustomLockScreen.dll (for HTC sense lock screen)
value:\windows\LockScreen.dll (for default windows lock screen)
* delete custom word in value

How to change shortcut on startscreen icons?

Mates,
KE2 with OC KDD kernel; TW4.
How do I change the default apps by pressing Contacts or SMS?
I want to use 3rd party Contacts and SMS app; but still want to use TW4...
Open applications menu. Click menu button and choose edit. For message program change: Drag message icon out into the application area. The drag gosms onto the apps/icons bar. Hope this is clear.

Ahhh; sorry mate; didnt explain clear enough. Got a customized theme; and because of this the icons are according to the theme; but if I change the SMS icon with the Go SMS; then I loose the customized icons.....
But thanx for the tip though :=)
Ahh OK. So to keep the icons the same change the shortcut link different I suppose another option, rather than change the shortcut link, would be to change the icon/shortcut and then change its icon to the your theme.
I have no idea which is easier and how to do it unfortunately so just putting it out there in case it helps. I guess for both these things you may need to root your phone and get a more powerful file browser.

Sense 4.0 Home for any Android *Launcher Pro* *Theme* *No root needed*

Sense 4.0 Launcher Pro Theme​
​
Hey everyone!
AdA here with the promised Sense 4.0 Launcher Pro layout.
*Features*
-authentic replica Sense 4.0 clock (Minus flip animation)
-HTC Icon set
-HTC Sense 4.0 Wallpaper
-(For those with Launcher pro plus) Dark Transparent sense look alike widgets
-Scrollable dockbar
And the best part is it works with any rom.
Rooted or unrooted? Doesnt matter!
This is in no way a Sense "port" just a themed version of Launcher pro!!! enough said.
Lets get down to business.
(1) First off download all 6 of these files to the root of your SD card.
http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/345437/launcherpro_backup.zip
http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/345438/Black_Sensus_4_Clock_Gnex.apk
http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/345441/HTC_HD_icons.zip
http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/345443/scene_wallpaper_htc_default.jpg
http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/345450/Sense_4_clock.apk
http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/345452/lunapic_133773859928208_2.png
(2) Extract the two Zip files with your choice of file manager program.(Do not change the directory just extract) I use ES File Explorer.
(3) Download Launcher Pro from the market and let it install. (If you want the transparent widgets seen in the pics you have to have Launcher Pro Plus)
(4) Press your HOME or HOUSE button to return to the Home screen. If launcher pro was installed then you should have been prompted to select a launcher when you pressed the home button. Choose Launcher Pro and set it as default.
(5)Now press your MENU button once you are at the HOME screen. (Generally on the far left at the bottom of most phones.) Select Preferences. Scroll to the bottom and select Restore Backup. Click yes or restart when prompted.
Halfway there!!!
(4) Navigate to the Root of your SD card with your file manager and select your choice of white or black Sense 4.0 Clock to install it. (You may have to select the unknown source option if prompted)
(5) Return to homescreen and hold press on the screen and select widgets. Select your Sense 4.0 widget you installed. You will have to resize it once its applied by hold pressing on it and to set up the weather and other settings go into your app drawer and select the Sense 4.0 clock you installed to set it up.
(6) Return to homescreen and hold press and select wallpaper. Choose gallery or whatever you use to select images and select the Sense 4.0 wallpaper I had you download.
(7) Now you are about done, you may have noticed that none of the icons work on the dock bar. There are by default 5 icons to the dockbar. I have three of them in the middle using a 100% TRANSPARENT Icon that you downloaded with the rest of the files (lunapic_133773859928208_2.png now located at the ROOT of your SD card)
If you swipe the dockbar to the left you will see five grey plus signs. That is for your second page of icons if you so choose to set multiple pages up.
Go back to the first page of icons.
The first icon on your RIGHT (the message bubble) Hold press it.
It will bring up "Edit Dock shortcut"
This is where you are free to customize what you want where on your dock bar.
Select change shortcut
select applications
and select what app you want to go there I had messaging by default but this is your choice.
Then choose custom icon
It should take you into your defualt gallery app. Locate the Sense Icons I had you download and choose the corresponding icon with the app you chose.
Done. That is the process to set up your shortcuts on the dockbar.
(8) The phone button in the middle has 3 seperate 100% transparent icons. Hold press on each one and select the phone app as the shortcut application. When it asks you to select an icon go back to CUSTOM ICON and find the lunapic_133773859928208_2.png (it comes up as a black blank square on my E4GT in the Gallery) select it and it will make the icon disappear but you can still select the phone.
I used the transparent icons as an overlay over the Dock Background to make the dock theme work right and look good.
That should be about it.
Play with it, Tweak it, Redistribute it, Whatever... just enjoy it.
and dont forget to say thanks if you like it!!!
Enjoy,
Ada​

That's not Sense 4 though. At least not by the screenshots in the first post.

It's not intended to be exact. Just a theme for launcher pro that will give you the feeling of sense without the ram usage that follows.
Keep it crispy, :highfive:
