Good night.
I have been researching this subject for a while and I find no solution.
I would like the pattern lock screen in my S2 to show my live wallpaper (or a different lwp) instead of a regular image.
The new S3 pulls this out easily. How can I have this in the S2? I. tried several launchers but they do not change this option.
Best regards
Before your S3 I dont see any similar option in a stock lockscreen. Maybe a third-party lockscreen app can do this trick. Such as the GO locker may introduce some animated components, but I'm not sure if lwp work.
Anyway, most people want to start using their devices immediately, so I dont see a point why to stare at the lock screen for minutes.

I have an S2.I wish to use a live wallpaper as a background in pattern lock. go locker does NOT solve this.
s2 does not allow me but it it possible in s3.so its a software issue.
how can I solve this limitation?
is there a tweak?

Then try ripple lock or widget locker. I googled, no guarantee.

none of those have pattern lock.if you have pattern lock you must unlock first widget lock and then the pattern.
and the pattern went have the live wallpaper background.
how can I put the pattern lock with a lwp background like the s3 then?
any thoughts anyone?
thanks
live wallpaper in pattern lock
I know its late and you may figure it out or forgot it.
You should go to settings___ display ___ wallpaper
and choose lock and home wallpaper then you'll see

Does anybody know of a lock screen app that supports live wallpapers? but does not change the Home screen.
I am using LauncherPro for my home screen but i would like to have live wallpaper for my lock screen, and unfortunately lockbot pro (which i think is the best lock screen app) does not support live wallpapers.

Sure, download the no lock app and go directly to your home screen live wallpaper instead of having to unlock
WidgetLocker, which is an awesome lock replacement (you can add 4x4 of widgets to the screen, several different variations of lock styles, plus it is much more robust than some other solutions, particularly FlyScreen) does apparently show a live wallpaper, just tried it here.
I have been searching for widgets to lock/unlock the pattern lock like in 2.1. I have tried a lot of the widgets in the market and none of them work for 2.2. Does anyone have any suggestions to use? Right now I have to keep going settings/security and redraw the pattern just to unlock it.

Are you talking about the 9 button trace pattern thing? I don't use it, but if that's what you're talking about, why don't you just disable it, and create a lockscreen gesture in whatever trace pattern you want, no sliders, assuming you're on 6.1 stable....
I'm exactly in the same case you were. Since my update from 2.1 to 2.3.3 none of all the widgets I've tried manage to do the job. And each time I'm forced to redraw it to enable or disable.
Did any of you find a solution ?
PS : I used to do it with SwitchPro widget, tried with Beautiful widget and also with UnlockPattern Toggle.

Settings>Location & Security>Set up screen lock
Edit: And if your on CM7 Settings>Cyanogenmod Settings>Lockscreen>And then the top option to disable the regular lockscreen

yeah thank for your quick answer.
But unfortunatly I already knew this.
I'm just looking for a way to bypass the new security rules to do it with a widget. Just switch on/off.
Actually I'm on X10 2.3.3 rooted? But the original ask was the same.
my question is...
i am pretty sure that gnote can have two different live wallpapers,
one on lockscreen and the other on homescreen.
with LA4 (DBT) i think i was able to assign two different live wallpapers. (wp clock on lockscreen/other picture on homescreen).
then, i haven't really paid attention to it lately, but i figured since the recent OTA upgrade to LB1, if i try to assign wp clock on lockscreen, homescreen wallpaper also automatically changes to wp clock. when i change homescreen, Lockscreen goes along with it.
i can put 2 different jpeg file but apparently no two live-wallpapers..
does anyone know the reason and/or solution to this ?

if you want you can try using WidgetLocker. Aside from the possibility of using a live wallpaper on the lockscreen, it also allows you to put widgets on the lockscreen. HTH

I actually tried them long time ago.. i did not like them cuz it caused so many bugs at that time..
Im sure it's gotten better since then but i prefer original lock screen.
thanks a lot anyways!
I'm using Multipicture Live Wallpaper right now, and I have no problem configuring two different sets.
Can someone list the steps of how to set a different wallpaper to the lockscreen to that of the homescreen.
I have some in my gallery i wish to use but whenever i set one it sets to both lockscreen and homescreen.
thanks

This is a live wallpaper which is displaying a static image and can show different images for lock screen and so on.

thanks for the help
so is there not just a simple way to do it from the phone without the need to install another app?
seems very strange
It really depend on the framework implementation. Samsung and sony are allowing different wallpapers ... motorola and google vanilla don't.

Thank you for recommending this! I had been looking for a solution like this for over a week! Simple Image Wallpaper Pro solved the issue!

Not sure if it's possible.
But you should ask yourself this:
You look at the lock screen like a few seconds every time, what's the point of having a live wallpaper. Because of that you will only have more topics about the battery sucking.
i had live wallpaper in lock screen untill i changed theme now i cant get it back
the stock lockscreen i.e. UxpNxtLockScreen.apk cannot set live wallpaper.
you can delete it after rooting, then lockscreen becomes the one of stock home.apk.
or try other lockscreen app possible.
