Lock Screen Wallpaper
If you didn’t notice during our instructions above, adding a wallpaper to the lock screen is just as easy. Follow the same steps but choose to use a specific image on the lock screen and not the home screen. When you find the image you want to use and press the apply button, the phone will ask you “Do you want to apply this to the home screen, the lock screen or both?” he will ask.
Choose both if you only want one image or which area you want to apply it to. I have a Packers logo on my lock screen and something else when I unlock my phone.
