Applying Live Wallpaper on Note7?

[invisiblesense]

Does anyone know how to apply live wallpaper on Note 7? I can't seem to figure out, live wallpapers are not showing under the Wallpaper and Themes option.

Does anyone know how to apply live wallpaper on Note 7? I can't seem to figure out, live wallpapers are not showing under the Wallpaper and Themes option.

I couldn't find the option either. Knowing I don't like the stock launcher anyway, I went to my trusty old nova prime. I wanted the stock look with more function so I also added the "MeeUI HD Icon pack" free from the play store, to get the rounded system wide icons. Then with nova, just long press the back button and on the far right there is an option for live wallpapers. Sorry I couldn't answer your question but hope this workaround helps.

Just open the live wallpaper like an app, then click open and apply as usual.

I can get live wallpapers on the home screen but there is no option for running the same on the lockscreen. I am coming from the S7E and that phone had the option.

Yes you correct, .... I am having the same issue ... live wall paper cannot be applied to the Lock Screen ... seems to have no Options to do so.
Samsung !!! why !!!

Any one have a work around ?

One of my employees has a live wallpaper working on her lock screen of her AT&T Note 7. I'll have to ask her how she got it to work. She told me she got it through the theme store. I'll find out more tomorrow.

Thanks !! .. I look forward to hearing how she got it working.
It seems to me that Samsung is trying to make us buy stuff through the theme store in order to get the functionality..... that makes me SAD...

So there are live themes in the theme store. It defintiely seems like that is exactly what Samsung is pulling as mostly all of them are not free. I just found the one she is using and the locksreen is live.

If you type in (live) into the search field it will come up with a few live locksreen wallpapers. So it looks like it limited to using the theme store only. Kinda cool helix one with a video attached in the description.

Well that's cool ..... But I guess I find it offensive and down right stupid that Samsung is making us pay for stuff that we android users always got for free .... we are now being limited to use only Samsung themes ... WTF ... are we now just sheep like Iphone users......*(
And what if I don't want to change all my Icons and the look of my stock messaging app Ect ...???

Your not alone... And to be honest things like this bother me way more than the locked bootloader.
At least that has a semi understandable reason.

Totally agree, like I said the S7 edge had the option. Maybe the sales of the Theme store didn't meet their expectations so they are trying to force it on us.

Despite the nonsense of only allowing paid live wallpapers, I would buy an app from the Galaxy store with only one purpose: to enable live wallpapers on the lock screen. This missing feature has me pretty annoyed.

 

[sev7en]

Dears,
just a question... there is any way to access to the store or download that contents directly from PC?

Ok so i had this problem as well if you search for beautiful live weather in app it will pop up with a sun in picture once you install it brings up 3 choices select live weather and asks at bottom if you want to set as wallpaper

 

[AaronRose77]

Samsmug needs to stop forcing us to only use their "paid" live wallpaper themes. This is completely unacceptable and must stop. I miss having my "Alive" video wallpaper on both the home and lock screens. This really kills the whole experience for me.

At least we still have access to our photo gallery through the samsung themes app. Maybe we can add an animated gif wallpaper to the gallery and add it to our lock screen this way? If samsung allows users to create their own themes, then there must be a way to create our own "Theme" with our own live wallpaper on both the home and lock screens?

Which app are you searching to enable beautiful live weather?

I have a solution for finding your live wallpapers

I found you have to download "Space Galaxy Live Wallpaper", open it, Select the "Start Wallpaper" button and voila! There is your entire list of live wallpapers you love. I have already contacted Samsung and they are aware of their lack of thought, but the rest of you need to also so the hirry up and update!

Nope, ... this is not the solution for a live Lock Screen Wall Paper....
But Thanks for trying.

Despite there is no way to set the lock-screen with live wallpaper...
but You can use this third party app to bring all installed livewallpapers to select for your homescreen...
Live Wallpaper Picker
Some live wallpaper apps have no shortcuts, This is what I used to set them for my homescreen...
