I have a glitch while trying to change the settings of my phone. As far as I can remember, the glitch only shows up in the settings. I've encountered it twice while using CM12 on my phone. It looks like this:
It happened once when I was trying to change the pattern lock. Then it went away and happened again in the APN settings. How do I go about fixing this?
Attached is a screenshot of the problem:

Though I have done forum searches and google searches for this issue and not found solution yet, if anyone has seen the same issue addressed somewhere else, I apologize for making this redundant thread.
I have experienced this problem ever since the 4.2 update, I have tried wiping everything and reflashing factory image again but still it persists.
When I open the JB stock browser, not the chrome, the holo-blue loading bar on the top hangs and remains even after the page has finished loading. There is also a gap below the loading bar that does not go away when I scroll down.
This happens in either full screen mode on/off or quick control on/off.
Rebooting the phone seems to fix this for little bit but soon it comes back.
Has anyone else experience this issue and has anyone got around to fix this?
Thanks
Hi,
I have the same issue, in order to "fix" it (it's not really a fix but it's the only solution I've found) I have disabled the "quick controls" option (Maybe my translation isn't good, it's the first option in the labs parameter of the stock browser).
I've lost the quick controls and the address bar isn't hiding anymore, but the display is ok

I have been having the same issue. Also when I type the screen runs upwards. Just a bad flash eh?
I have had this problem no matter which 4.2 rom I tried. It's very annoying as stock browser is the best for me (love Quick controls)
Same problem here, didn't happened before 2day

OGP was getting laggy so I restored to factory stock. I was surprised though that the phone remained rooted, which I guess is good. I then installed FreeGee and went with CWM, same as it was before the restore.
Now, a few weeks later, I'm having some issues with the keyboard and the Home screen wallpaper. About once or twice a day (on most days), for some unknown reason, my keyboard will revert to the Android keyboard (AOSP) from the LG keyboard that I have it set to. When I "correct" it to the LG keyboard, sometimes the "Extended keyboard" option is checked and other times it's not (I always leave the extended keyboard checked). I also will occasionally get a notification on the pull-down that I need to select a keyboard.
The other issue is that the Home screen wallpaper also seems to change itself back to the default blueberry paper. This only happens on the home screen, and it does not affect the lock screen wallpaper. The wallpaper issue seems to happen at different times than the keyboard issue.
I've also had the phone reboot itself once or twice since the restore...both times while in its holster. Only reason I know this is that I hear the AT&T boot music playing in the background. Upon viewing the phone, it's verified that it is in fact rebooting.
Anyone else having these issues, or know the cause?

Guess nobody else is having this issue.
The spontaneous rebooting has stopped, as has the "extended keyboard" issue.
What remains is the wallpaper and default keyboard changing issues. They both change at the same time now, about once a week.
What I was able to nail down is that this happens after every time titanium backup (free version) does its weekly thing. I have no idea what setting(s) I may have enabled to cause this. Anyone have an idea they can help out with?
I have the exact same problem with my home screen wallpaper changing. Ive had my optimus since about july and the first time it did it was like 2 weeks after i got the device. Kept doing it even tho i would change it back and not do anything with it regarding the screen. Wasnt sure what to make of it but whatever. It didnt do it again until yesterday (24th) and it wouldnt stop. Had to change my screen back like 5 times, and i just woke up a little bit ago and it was different again. The phone was just laying there. Didnt touch it so i have no clue. Ive tried going thru the settings to see if maybe i had checked something or whatever and im pretty sure i didnt. Only thing i can think of is that is just a glitch with the phone. I like the phone too much so thats not enough to get me to wanna get rid of it.

Are you running Titanium Backup?
If all else fails, you can always restore to stock and reinstall your apps and other items. Then maybe you will be able to determine what is causing the issue.
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!
I have no idea how this has happened but for some reason, my settings icon has become corrupted and is a cross between the settings cog and the samsung voice app.
I'm sorry I can't describe the problem any more, I have only just noticed it so I don't know how it happened.
I have uploaded a screen shot so you can see it.
Im running Dr Ketans rom version 9
Restarting does not help the problem.
All good until yesterday , my phone was encrypted, out of the blue the lock screen was removed and back to none, this caused problems with my phone, so did a restore and the problem continues. Even went as far flashed to original Rom. problem persist, i am out of ideas whats causing the lock screen to revert back to no password.
My G2 just did the same thing. I have no idea why.
And now as I typed this my security app, webroot secure anywhere mobile just disabled itself. What the....
Just thought I'd update, I found some others having the same problem in another forum and it appears to be caused by the webroot secure anywhere app.
