I rooted my phone using option two from this post and everything went great. Only issue I have is that regardless of how I set my wallpaper for home/lock screens, as soon as I unlock the phone, it resets to the default (white feather on blue background) picture. If I change the wallpaper and shut the phone down, it boots with the correct wallpaper. As soon as I unlock it though, it changes. Any ideas? I can't find much on this when I search.
EDIT: It was Clean Master's auto-kill. All good.
2 days ago I started getting a strange lock screen on my S3. I noticed it when my alarm went off in the morning. There was a plain black and blue lock screen. When I swiped past it, my alarm showed up. When I dismissed my alarm, my normal lock screen showed up (complete with the normal unlock pattern dots.)
This new lock screen doesn't show up all the time. Maybe 2-3 times per day. I think, but I'm not sure, that it's being triggered by the phone going to sleep. Turning the screen off and on only triggers the normal lock screen. The new lock screen never overrides the default lock screen - it's just over top of it. Also, it looks like if I disable lock screens altogether in settings, the new lock screen goes away.
I've uninstalled all launchers except Lightning Launcher and TouchWiz. LL's lock screen is a separate app that I do not have. I've uninstalled all lock screen replacements that I know of (I only had Widget Locker). I checked the list of recently updated apps to try to figure out if it's a new "feature", but nothing. I've checked the list of running apps, along with apps that automatically start up on load and I don't see anything strange.
Does anyone know of a way I can determine how to figure out what this is? I'd like to get rid of it.
I'm running StockMod ROM 4.3 (rooted). A screenshot is attached.
Thanks.
Hi!
Does StockMod ROM come with the Active Display feature? Because what you are seeing might some kind of Active Display...

I didn't see Active Display, but I did notice that Dynamic Notifications was enabled. Not sure when or why. I turned it off and I haven't seen anything pop up since. Hopefully that was it.
Thanks for your help!
My Tab Pro just stopped working. It boots only sometimes and when it boots the colors are negative and i dont have the keyboard on my lock screen to write the password. The touch screen works fine. I tried re-flashing the stock rom with odin but it doesn't really change anything at all. I boot into the same android with my own wallpaper, negative colors and keyboard not showing up. Please help!
Per the title, occasionally, my lock screen wallpaper simply disappears to leave a black background. On one occasion the pic reappeared on its own but normally it takes a restart to rectify. My phone is not rooted. Any ideas on this ?
same issue here.
Is the pic located on your phone memory or SD card? Are you using a lock screen app or stock lock screen? Aftermarket launcher?
Using stock lock screen. Ive had this happen with pics on device and on SD card
Refreshing thread. I could not find any info around and currently experiencing same issue on:
NOTE 4, stock ROM, stock lock screen, KitKat 4.4.4, Nova launcher, pic. both on SD and device. Lock screen pic. disappear randomly turning into black. Lock screen settings:
- Swipe with popping colours - when on home WiFi
- PIN when on 3G
Settings applied via Tasker. Worked well on NOTE 3, KK 4.4.4.
So far tried:
- Clearing gallery cache - does not work
- Setting a different pic. through settings - does not work
- Restarting the device - works for some time until it goes black again...
I have good lock installed and haven't had any issues with it. Today in the morning I noticed my lock screen clock widget is gone. No idea why. I know I switched my Samsung theme yesterday but that was it. Switched back to default theme and same ****. Haven't touched any options in settings so no idea why it happened. I still get notifications in lock screen.
I even tried to disable lux but didn't do anything.. tried shutting down phone etc
