For some reason when I add a static bitmap it won't let me add an image from my gallery. I can however use images from Dropbox so it's not a big issue, just a bit annoying.
The bigger issue I have is that whenever I try to set a bitmap to open a shortcut Zooper automatically force closes. I have tried rebooting the phone and even gone so far as a clean install of my ROM (using Paranoid Rom) and still the issue persists.
I would like to use Media Utilities in Zooper but without the ability to use shortcuts I can not.... any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have the same issue, just registered here on the forum to adress the problem.
Tried adding bitmap from dropbox, and it worked so the problem is at least almost solved. :good:

this initially happened with the gosms widget where it doesnt refresh everytime i get a new sms. i reinstalled gosms and it still had the problem. and now even the clock widget of sonyericsson and the other widgets likr goweather, the date widget doesnt refresh anymore. how do i go about this? are you also having the same problem?
How about Timescape? You can use it to see the messages
I don't use timescape. It's not too private.
Anyway, it's not the issue though.
Even the clock widget (stock SE's digital clock) sometimes don't refresh with the time showed in the status bar. Even the weather widget etc.

ever since the 2.3.3 update ive had the same issue, particularly with the clock. its always out of sync. tried stopping home, reloading the widgets etc, nothing seems to work and its completely random
I'm still with 2.3.2.
I tried using GoLauncherEx and so far they are working fine. But it still happens.
I have noticed that the widgets don't refresh when I'm using the default SE home..
Can someone help me with this?
I've discovered this to be a reproducible (but not solvable) problem. This might be an Android prob, as there are one or two other short threads on this site for other phones. For me it looks like the common thread is an incoming call while using an app. But fixing it... who knows?
I have been able to reproduce it three times:
1. after a week using my Arc, a new clock widget stopped updating except when foregrounded, and not until the next minute ticked over. I also noticed a weather widget wouldn't update reliably.
2. after two months without a solution, i completely reset the phone. All good. While playing a game, I received a call. Afterwards, the widgets wouldn't refresh except as above.
I deleted an unrelated widget because I didn't need it, and (perhaps coincidentally) the other widgets started refreshing properly.
3. a week later, I received a call while using the calendar app. Widgets no longer refresh, except as above. I haven't been able to find a fix this time. Tested widgets like the stock digital clock show the same problem.
If u hav installed beautiful widgets then..
Well after lots of trial and error.. the only solution i found is..
1. uninstall beautiful widgets animation
2. clear data beautiful widgets from settings - apps - beautiful widgets
3. uninstall beautiful widgets..
Living without beautiful widgets is better than facing that refresh problem..
Fix launcher lag
This method worked on my SE Arc S (.42). You need to have root access.
1) Open the following file: /system/build.prop
2) Add this to the end of the file and save it: ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
3) Reboot.
Hope it helps.
Hello,
I had searched for this bug(?) but I found nothing like this.
Normal situation: if I want to put a new widget in the desktop, before drop the widget somewhere there is a green shadow which indicates that the placement is correct. If another widget is in the same place, this shadow is gray.
My problem: somehow, in concrete places in the desktop, at the time to drop the widget the shadow is gray and no widget is there. This occurs in the 1st desktop the hole 1st row and in the 2nd desktop, the 4th column, 2nd row. All the time are the same places and no matter which widget i try to put.
I have tried: reboot, long press in the gray places (maybe was an "invisible" widget), uninstalling some apps.
I'm newbe in android and don't want to make reset to default. Somebody knows about this issue?
Thanyou.
Never occured that problem, unistall all widgets then reboot, and then try to instal and put it.
First thing to try is wiping data for the launcher. You many need root, never tried without so don't know.
Sent via subspace beacon from my Arc.
This problem is known and is due to a modification of the location of the widgets that were here before; for instance if you move it from memory to sd card.
If you do not want to root, you have to reset the launcher, but you will have after to do your personalization again. To reset the launcher, Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, All, Sony Ericsson Home, Wipe Data (sorry, my system is in French, so my translation can not be exact).
If you have rooted, you have to remove the line(s) concerned by your "ghost" widgets in the file: \data\data\com.sonyericsson.home\files\desktop.xml.gz\desktop.xml
Thanks to all for the answers and specially for thierryb because he got with the solution.

Hi,
I am getting addictive to zooper. And I am irritated of facebook messanger's floating chathead.
Is it possible to use the chathead's image (the person's face that facebook shows) to be used as a bitmap image in facebook?
My idea is, the image must be stored in some place in my machine, so just like some bitmap image, I should be able to use it in zooper, if I know the location.
Kindly help.
Regards,
Hello,
I'm experiencing problems with Media Utilities integration to Zooper Widget.
First let me get the basics,
My Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini with android 4.2.2.
My Media Player: doubleTwist
So when I saw it was possible to make a media player with Zooper Widget and Media Utilities I decided to give it a try.
I took quite some time to design it, and at first it all worked, now however, without editing anything in the Zooper Widget it stopped working.
I really have no idea whats causing this, I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling Media Utilities and changing my media player, but still no luck.
Anyone else experiencing this problem or knows how to fix this?
Also for the ones who want to know (This is my MU and ZW setup)
- MU:
- Ticked off Zooper Widget
- Ticked off Attempt direct control and Send Song Progress (i dont use coverart)
- ZW:
- For play, prev and next I used Module Ontap --> shortcuts --> media utilities controls --> play/pause, previous and next
- For Artist and Track: #TMU_ARTIST# and #TMU_TRACK#
Does any1 know how i can fix this?
Tnx in advance =)
You have to tick on Zooper Widget on MU for it to work.
Hello, sorry if this is a bonehead question, but I'm not that inexperienced, so my inability to figure this out or find a solution specific to the issue I'm having after an hour Googling has led to me developing a violent facial tic and my periodic rage-gasms made my dog retreat to his hiding spot because he misinterpreted my muttering and cursing as a scolding directed his way. Now I feel bad.
Anyway, I can't add bitmaps. Whenever I select one, the following loading screen just locks up, and a switch back to my 'desktop' displays the little folder icon where the bitmap should be within the widget.
I've restarted, uninstalled zooper, reset defaults, thoughtfully chewed on a pencil, messed with zooper app permissions, and looked at everything very sternly. Nothing.
Zooper automatically uses Gallery as a file manager, and I can't find a way to let me change it to another manager. I've gone into settings and cleared defaults on every program even remotely related to file mngmt, but i CANNOT get zooper to default to another manager or allow me to choose another.
I'm sure it's something simple, but I'm clueless so does anyone have a solution for me?
Really? No one?
I had this problem bother me for a short time before I caught on. Your explanation has things sounding similar enough to my own problem for me to assume it's almost certainly the same quick - fix, which in turn will make you facepalm yourself (as I did) because it's really simple.
Stop gnawing on things and traumatizing your dog, and just go look up Zooper in Settings>Apps. Investigate Zooper's permissions. For some mysterious reason, myself and a few others have had storage permissions deactivated for this app alone.
Just make sure that Zooper has storage permissions active once more, and you're good to go.
Cheers.
