Hello everyone,
i have this weird problem, i installed tasker on my unrooted desire with stock 2.2 and it seems that it's not doing anything... i created a few profiles - nothing happens, i even tried making a widget for a task to set display brightness to 5 but "clicking" the widget did nothing... any ideas what i might be doing wrong?

Hey guys,
I've been having issues with the Widgetlocker lockscreen recently, and was wondering if any of this will ring a bell with someone.
I recently flashed the KJ2 2.3.5 ROM (the XEU non-wipe Frankenstein one), and i've also flashed CF-Root and then the Speedmod kernel. I'm in the UK, on O2 (debranded to XEU) and i have no issues with the phone whatsoever. I even get great battery life. It's just this damn widgetlocker issue that's grating on me!
For some reason when i wake the phone up and try to unlock it by using the slider (i just use the default 'Android' one for unlocking - the only other things i have are a couple of widgets for missed calls & texts and a battery % one) a lot of the time the slider does not repond to touch. It doesn't always happen, but maybe a good one out of every three times it happens. And the weird part is, if i then just wait about 5 seconds, then it suddenly responds and i can unlock the phone. Obviously having another 5 seconds on top of the already present lag when pressing the home button is not good, and because of this i'm thinking of not using WL anymore.
I've been through all of the settings, i'm almost 100% sure it's not something in there. Can anyone help with this?
Cheers guys.
Happens with me too sometimes. Another issue is if you keep pressing Menu button 4-5 times the phone gets unlocked and takes you to the home screen.
Hey, just wanted to post that i finally figured out what the problem was.
I'm using an .apk to help with the touchscreen sensitivity. See vitalij's thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18999801#post18999801
Well it turns out on 2.3.5 vitalij's .apk has some issues with the most up-to-date superuser. The solution, so far, isn't great but gets the job done, is to uninstall the .apk, and then re-install. The important part is not to click on 'enable service' in the app! So basically each time you want to use the app you have to open it and hit 'apply' on whatever setting you need. The setting will work until you next turn the screen off. For me this workaround is actually ok, as the only time i ever really used it was for the odd game, so i'm happy to just do it manually on these occassions.
disable root helper
madrano, can you expand on what you mean by this? i have tried enabling & disabling root helper but if i remember correctly the problem was still there.
I don't know whether anybody has same problem like me. I put some widgets (by Sony: Data Traffic, On/Off Bluetooth, On/Off Wifi ... ) (by others: AnyDo, Facebook widgets) to my home screen.
Here is the problem:
After the phone has been running for a while, I can't use those widgets anymore (nothing happened when I pressed them), they look like they are frozen. I checked "Apps" in Setting and I saw that they were listed as Cached process. Now I wonder is that the root cause of my problem and if yes, can anybody tell me how can I overcome this problem?
Thank you.
It's not a root issue. The beta versions of ics had issues with widget refreshing, don't know if it's still an issue.

Still
Yes it still exists in the official version
I have a weird problem, a few days ago I could not turn off the morning alarm because the icons in the lower bar (turn off and snooze) just couldn't be pulled up. I thought I was just too sleepy but I later realized that I can't use the lockscreen shortcuts either. The phone registers the touch but the icons just don't move upward. Also can't decline a call because of this.
Everything was fine the day before this happened, there were no system updates, no settings changed. The phone is running on stock rom, Android 4.2.2, Sense 5.0. No matter what settings I change I can't get it to work again, tried searching google and xda and found nothing similar. If I try to use the lockscreen shortcuts multiple times and then go to the app drawer and just scroll up and down sometimes a random app opens, most often messaging or mail, like it registers the lockscreen command only then. This is so annoying, does anyone know what I can try to eliminate this problem? I wouldn't like to try flashing a custom rom because I don't have any experience and am otherwise satisfied with stock system. Please excuse me if my questions are in any way stupid, I'm just a noob
I still can't find a fix for this, is there really nobody else with this problem?
Now I decided to hard reset the phone to fix this...yeah right, the shortcuts still don't work!
Hi. The other day I was just testing ringtones with my 4.3 android xperia zl... when I noticed a delay of push notifications. Here's the thing:
When on WIFI, and screen off (standby/deepsleep) the push notifications are delayed between 30+ seconds to MINUTES. (or until I turn the screen on). Before you guys ask, yes. The wifi is set to be always on, stamina mode OFF, wifi optimization OFF.
Here comes the interesting part. This only happen on 4.3. Just out of curiosity I went back to 4.2.2 and guess what? the problem doesn't exist. Notifications arrive even with stamina ON, and wifi optimization ON.
Did any one here noticed this behavior with your beloved ZL? if so, what did you guys do to fix this annoying bug?
I hope I'm no the only one with this bug.
PD: This problem does not occur using mobile data.
see ya guys! have a nice day.
Same problem
I have a Nexus 4, when I upgraded to KitKat I'm having the same problem
I have tried everything, rooting, changing roms, PNF (an aplication in PlayStore that says that it will fix this) and a lot of other things but so far no luck.
I suggest you to try PNF which you can find on Play Store
Hello All.
Been using zooper widget for a while now and have created a lot of complex widgets with no issue. Now, after going to CM12.1, all my widgets are resetting to a default location (Eureka) after my screen goes off. I have to manually force update to get the correct location/weather. Anyone else have this issue or know a fix? Thanks
