My wife's phone was displaying these home screen images when she woke it up today.
Immediately prior to seeing these, she did the following: Opened Dolphin, signed into a Yahoo Groups account to download a work PDF, browsed Drudgereport or theDailyMail, set her phone down.
A few minutes later, she turned the screen on, slid the unlock bar and then boom, these images. Just like a home screen, she could swipe left and right and see the additional screens. They were not interactive in any way, though. I took pics of the screens and then hit the "home" button and everything seemed normal--then she pulled her battery and is leaving it off until we figure this out.
She has no suspect apps, nothing recently installed, no blackmarket app downloaders...
WTF is going on?

I think that's a launcher

I suspected a launcher, but she has nothing new/changed on settings. I'll power her phone up and go through all her apps.
Any idea what launcher it could be? I'm not familiar with any that feature this kind of default text or lack of actual style...and I've been flashing Roms and rooting since the G1.

Hey, I searched for this and didn't find anything that applied to my issue. I just rooted my HTC EVO a week ago and since then there has been random force closes, email accounts on HTC's Mail app combining together bringing a few emails from one account to the other, and now my phone dialer does not work. It opens but I can see no numbers to push and can only dial through contacts. I cleared the Dalvik cache today to see if that did anything, and even tried end process and clear data for the dialer to no avail. I'm running the "stock" rom and kernel, and have only installed SetCPU, WirelessTether, SystemPanelLite, and CurrentWidget since rooting. Nothing has changed otherwise. I rooted with UnrEVOked, recovery is clockworkmod. Do I need to get rid of the "stock" ROM in order to prevent these problems? The phone worked flawlessly before I rooted.
Below is a screenshot of the problem, names and phone numbers were blurred with photoshop after i took the screenshots. It literally looks the exact same on my screen, no numeric dialer whatsoever. Almost like the dialer should be there since it cuts off the last half of the bottom recent contact.

Hi
I promise i have searched anbd searched and i cant find anything similar to the problem im having.
Im now on my second HTC One S and still im having the same issue.
The problem seems to occur in the following situation but sometimes it can happen just randomly.
Connect the phone to Parrot Bluetooth in car.
Play music through audio lead not Bluetooth using Spotify
Start Sygic Navigation or Google Navigation
All of a sudden the screen starts going mad like someone is continually pressing the home button, and it also seems to screenshot it into my pictures gallery
as you can see below.
This behaviour can go on for ages until you press the power button, which seems to calm it down, or maybe it just carries on when yo unlock the phone again.
I used to do the same kind of multi tasking on My HTC Desire no problems, but now its impossible, and very frustrating. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Many Thanks
Chris

can't find anything on this. I have an htc evo 4g lte. s-off. on viper (or any sense rom) when swiping to scroll through image results, the thumnails pages are not landing precisely on the next page. it's off by like one or a half of a thumbnail. the bar with the page numbers and arrows move with the swipe. touching an image then proceeds to show the wrong image. if I start on the first page it will work fine by tapping the right arrow instead of swiping. this started with jb. now on aosp roms this happens but only if I scroll up or down before or durring swipe left. I don't understand it and it's driving me crazy. in sense roms it does it no matter what. searching for help on this is useless as the search criterea brings up a slew of unrelated topics. am I missing something? I find it hard to believe this problem is limited to my device.
here is an example

New infinite scrolling google images works fine effectively negating the possibility of my side scrolling issue (obviously) so if any moderator sees this thread, go ahead and close it.

Hey all,
Just got my note 12 a few days ago and have rooted and frozen bloat-ware etc.
I came across this problem today where when trying to set a wallpaper as the home and lock screen the image compression goes to garbage and the quality goes to crap.
I have a video that shows the problem and will edit it in when I reach 10 posts...
Don't know why it's doing it but hopefully someone has some ideas.
I'm running stock rooted rom. :good:

Unsure of what that app should do but it doesnt install a shortcut for me at least and when trying to set the lock screen wallpaper nothing happens.
Could it be something I have frozen?
Did you read the app's description? It's a live wallpaper. When you select the option to change both Home & Lockscreen wallpaper, you will be asked what type of wallpaper you wish to use. Choose Live Wallpaper, then Simple Image, then the settings button to choose the image you wish to use.

Thank you,
I decided to re install everything today and it seems to have fixed itself although I I think the problem was I had frozen something that I perhaps shouldn't have. All good now though after a tedious day of re installing every little tweak. :laugh:
First of all, sorry if this isn't the right place. It would not allow me to post in question/answers.
I am experiencing a bug (Note 20 Ultra N9860, HK version but being used in the States) where I end a call and the last screen from the phone app is permanently overlaid over the launcher screen. This is not the app itself... It's not actually there and I can still launch icons that are beneath the overlay as if it wasn't there. It does this with several launchers. Nova is preferred but it does not go away when I switch back to the Samsung launcher. It's also visible when I go into the app switcher... Not sure if this is a coincidence but the overlay is the exact same size as the app previews in the app switcher.
I've attached some photos... Including one with the pop up view to show the difference as several people I've told about this bug think it's that and I'm dumb lol. There's also one of it showing using the app switcher.
Anyone else experiencing this or have a solution? The only thing I can do it restart the phone everytime I hang the phone up.

Oh and BTW I am on stock firmware.
did you experiment with call display when using other apps under settings? In case it makes a difference.
was the issue always there, since you got the phone?
try with Google phone dialer?
