2. Tap on the "Lock and Home" screen images.

3. Tap on the picture you want to use for your wallpaper.

4. Tap the icon on the lower-left portion of the screen.

5. Tap the "Set as Wallpaper" option.

6. Position the picture with your finger, moving up, down, left or right. Align the picture with the center of the screen.

7. Click the "Set" button when you have aligned the picture the way you want to lock the picture.
