Lock Screen Background Problem on Nokia Icon

Hi Everyone,
I have been having this pretty annoying problem with my Nokia Lumia Icon device. Whenever I try to change my Lock Screen BG to a photo (a saved photo in one of my photo albums) it seems to be working at first and the crop menu functions correctly, but then when I go to check the Lock screen, the photo it is one of the Nokia BG stock photos (not the photo I had selected).
I did some research to try and fix this problem myself. I have made sure that my High Contrast is off, restarted my phone several times, and am on the verge of just resenting the whole darn thing to see if it fixes the problem. The odd thing is that it started out working perfectly. I remember changing my lock screen BG several times when I first got the phone and I do know how to preform the task at hand... 
I am resorting to making this thread to get some ideas, and if anyone has any input what could be wrong and how to fix it, I would love some help. 
Thank you!

Hi, thehorizonriots.
Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions! 
Have you tried to do a hardware reset on your phone? This basic fix will not delete any of your personal data from your phone, but you will be needing to set the date and time again in Settings> Date+settings. To do the fix, press and hold the power and volume down keys simultaneously for 10-15 seconds. Release the keys when the phone vibrates and let the phone restart. After this, try to set a lockcreen background photo again and see if there's any changes.
By the way, to have the latest stability and usability improvements on your phone, make sure that it has the most recent software and system apps update. While phone is connected to internet (preferably Wi-Fi), go to Settings> Phone update> Check for Updates. For your system apps, go here: http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Pool-of-Knowledge/​Nokia-Windows-Phone-8-App-Updates/td-p/1640082. 
Keep us posted!

  • There is no option to reject an incoming call in locked screen, there must be an icon on the screen for one who don't want to use lock button several times, i did'nt face this problem in last ios 6.1.3.

    A good read. Have you done anything at all to resolve your problem. Reset? Restore?
    By the way - "your products"... nobody here produced the iPhone, we are all just users. Apple is not here.

  • How do we change the Yosemite lock-screen background?

    How do we change the Yosemite lock-screen background?
    Would like it to match our desktop.
    At present, lock-screen appears to be a blurred version of one of the standard Yosemite desktops.

    It typically uses your Screen Saver definition in System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Screen Saver tab.
    Or I'm misunderstanding the question...

  • Where can I find the default lock screen background / 10.3.1

    Hi,
    this might be a silly question, I'd love to use the default lock screen background that came with 10.3.1 (the one below) as my main background as well, but I can't find it on my phone.
    Does anyone know where it is stored? (not in 'protected_media/wallpapers', apparently :-( )
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello,
    That's your carrier default wallpaper, you can get it by going to options, display, then click on the advanced button, which looks like an equaliser and then click 'reset to carrier wallpaper'.
    Regards.
    Blackberry! Here, now, forever!

  • Black lock screen background

    I recently installed CAC root certificates on my mac to enable my smart card to work with .mil websites. Since then, my mavericks lock screen no longer displays my background wallpaper, just a black screen with the username and password prompt.

    just to clarify, I'd appreciate any info on how I can get the computer to start displaying my background photo on the lock screen again.

  • Lock screen wallpaper problem

    Hello,
    I've got a problem with setting lock screen wallpaper.
    Every time I go to settings --> personalize --> lock screen wallpaper and click on it, choose Xperia wallpaper or any other from the album, then it allows me to "cut" it, and as only I am trying to save it it shows me the message "unable to set wallpaper"
    Any ideas?
    Tried to restart the phone but still I've got this issue, very annoying. 

    No matter with or without the pattern as I only try to cut the picture and set it as wallpaper the result is always the same, you can see it on the screen below:
    It says: "It is not possible to set wallpaper"  

  • Lock screen window problems

    I have a problem with the lock screen when waking up from sleep. The window it shows is no longer the default one instead it looks like just a generic window with a password field, not the default. is there anyway to reset it?

    Yes it works. Thanks sasra51000. If anyone else is having trouble with this problem:
    1. Do a complete backup of your computer
    2. Shutdown your computer
    3. Turn the computer on and hold down Command + R while your computer boots up
    4. Choose your language and select reinstall mountain lion (most likely be the same steps for older or newer versions of OS X)
    5. Let the download complete (it could take a while) and your computer will restart and everything should be fixed

  • The lock screen background on my iPhone 5s is blurry. It wasn't that way when I bought it but I must have changed a setting. Does anyone know how to fix it?

    I can't figure out what it is that I have to do. I've only had the phone a day and have already messed it up. It's really annoying I can't find the setting to change it back. I don't even know what I did to change it to make it blurry in the first place. Can anyone help me?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings If yu can see the screen enough to do it)
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since you have a hardware problem.

  • Nokia asha 303 lock screen

    is there a way to change the lock screen background of nokia asha 303?? and the time it takes before it locks automatically?

    @Endyandrew those apps where proxy-based apps which relied on services run at Nokia. Nokia ceased to run those proxies in October and November 2014. if you are looking for alternatives, please, mention which services you used exactly, for example, which E-mail Service Provider. Depending on the social service, you might be better off switching the phone to a Google Android based one for example.
