Different wallpaper on home and lock screen in 4.3?

[Carl Kessen Sverdrup]

After updating to 4.3 my lockscreen wallpaper changed to the same as my home screen wallpaper. Okay, no bigge, I'll just change it back - or so I thought. There has to be a simple solution that doesn't involve changing the launcher or something similar, right?

Thing is, Lock Screen Style isn't there anymore. See attached picture.

Might want to clear your partition cache to see if that works or you might want to do a factory reset.

Thanks. I'm trying that now.

Edit: Ok, so that didn't do the trick. Is anyone else using a Telenor-branded (or other European-branded, just-got-4.3 today) device and can confirm this is, or isn't, an issue for others? I'd rather not wipe and go through this whole process. I might as well go with vanilla 4.3 (and 4.4 when the Google Edition arrives) instead then.

Wish I could help more. I'm on AT&T US Stock One.

Turns out this is because of Sense 5.5. With the new widget-thing (setting widgets directly from the lock screen) they apparently saw no reason to keep the background image changer. I use it to show a picture that says I'm an organ donor with contact information for my sister and father, and this is really a deal-breaker for me.

Does anyone know of a ROM with this "future", or how I could go about to a) install a version of 4.3 with Sense 5.0, or b) downgrade to 4.2.2.

How about using an alternative Lock Screen like Widget Locker ( https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...d=com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker&token=iWAGrdQ- ), or Holo Locker Plus ( https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ails?id=com.mobint.locker.plus&token=pywMGtgW ). Both support using a different wallpaper than your home screens, there are other lock screen replacements as well, but those are two of the more popular.

I guess I could give them a try but my previous experience with these kinds of lock screens are not good.

I too noticed the missing Lock Screen Style when installing a ROM w/ 4.3 and Sense 5.5. It is primarily for this reason I went back to the 4.2.2 I was happy with. If anyone finds a way around this with 5.5 to get an entire background up, please post it.
