Replace Lockscreen Wallpaper in Lollipop 5.0.1
I recently upgraded my Samsung Galaxy S4 (i9505) LTE to Lollipop 5.0.1 and I noticed that there is nowhere to change the shutter wallpaper, so now I am stuck in front of a chess piece that comes with a black BTU firmware version I downloaded to the device ... Is there a way to change it without replacing the default screen lock with the app? Surely, is there a place on the device where the image exists where I can just replace it manually?

You can change the lockscreen background in the Galaxy S4 lollipop below along the way from the user's perspective:
Goto Homescreen (press the HOME button) → press the menu key (left side Home key) → Select wallpaper → Select "Screen lock" from the top dropdown menu → Select Gallery option → Change image

The lock selection option does not exist on many devices / versions. If that's your thing, you can open your Gallery app, select the photo you want to set as wallpaper, and select Set As in Photo Settings. Then you get the option to set it as wallpaper, screen lock, or both. Choose whatever you want.

If you have NOVA LAUNCHER , you must disable it first. Use Android Launcher by default, go to Settings - Screen - Wallpaper - change for both (Home screen and Lock screen). Tested on Nexus 5X (Android 6.x / 7.x).
You can also use this Private Photo Viewer "to change wallpaper without using launchers, but it only works from Android N higger!
