Try this :
Go to setttings -> apps manager -> album -> force close -> clear data, clear cache and then reboot. See if it works

Try using Google photos instead of gallery.

You can use a different wallpaper picker (like nova wallpaper picker) BTW, custom ROMS can cause these types of problems.

[Q] Unable to add widget to Homescreen ICS

When ever I try to add Walkman widget, I get the message "Widget already added".
Let me give you some background on how I managed to get this message. I am having HTC Explorer and have flashed htcPICO_fusion_xperia v1 cm9. Then I was playing around with the Xperia Launcher by assigning Grid values to Home-screen and resizing the widgets. Suddenly after force resizing the Walkman widget, it disappeared and since then when I try to add the widget again its giving me the message.
I guess it has gone to some part of the screen that is beyond the visible bounds. So, how do I delete the widget from the screen without actually selecting the widget and dragging to the deleted bin.
please help

I just had to uninstall the app using a System App Unistaller (like HiUninstaller), reboot and restore the Walkman App.
Added the widget...

How do I change the lockscreen wallpaper?

This seems like it should be simple! I have changed the wallpaper in Nova to a static image but the lockscreen still shows the Xperia live wallpaper. I tried switching back to Xperia launcher and setting it there but no luck. The lock screen still shows the live wallpaper instead.
Is there any way to set it to a static image?

Settings - personalization - lock screen or alternatively you can just go straight into your photo gallery , choose a pic and from the options select 'set as lock screen wallpaper'
I knew it would be something simple I was too dumb to find! Thanks
I wanna do the opposite. I've changed the theme and now I can't find a way to make the lockscreen wallpaper to be the same live wallpaper than my homescreen. I'm on kitkat rooted. help please =(

I don't think you can change lockscreen wallpaper to a live one, even rooted.

FIXED Wallpaper Carousel on MiUi

I was banging my head as the lockscreen was not showing different different wallpapers even if I keep the wallpaper carousel app enabled.
If you are facing the same issue, do the following:
1. Open Themes app and select the default theme (Check all the options in the bottom like Lockscreen, Homescreen, System and Icons). Refer screenshot 1.
2. Now restart phone.
3. Open Wallpaper Carousel app (Settings / Lock screen & password / Wallpaper Carousel) and Turn on.
4. Add Wallpaper Carousel to Autostart (Settings / Permissions / Autostart).
5. Restart phone and like after 30 min press the powerkey and you should see the lockscreen is displaying different different wallpapers (That is Wallpaper carousel app is working properly)
We really do not like the default theme so if you like to install any other theme then before applying the theme, please uncheck 'Lockscreen' and apply and restart phone and you'll find the lockscreen changes wallpapers. If you select the 'Lockscreen' and then apply the non default/custom theme, what happens is, the wallpaper carousel will be unlinked and the theme forces its own wallpaper hence you will be find the wallpaper carousel is not working. I have spend days to understand this logic and wanted to share this info to help you all.
P.S: Some says it wallpaper carousel works only on Default Launcher. This is not true as it is working on my All time favorite 'Lightning Launcher'.
this solution working ONLY od you have region set to India/Indonesia. Not working fór EU version.
no
Thanks.... It's really worked on my phone as mentioned above step by step.
yes thanks for sharing your view , i will also want to try it with my phone and after that i will share my result opinion.
