Lock screen wallpaper problem - Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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:

Try this:

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:

[REQ.]Boot/Down animations

I am as foreign to making computer animations as Rosanne is to a treadmill. So, I was wondering if it would be impossible to make a boot animation that just looked like a tv turning on, starting with the dot going to the horizontal line expanding to a fuzzy screen, then "changing channels" to the home screen?
Then for the down animation, could it be made to look like the screen breaks and the phone just dies?
Impossible?

That link did not answer his question, unless you meant for him to re-post in that section. I'll try to make something like that, I'm bored at the moment.
EDIT: Spent hours on this, and I cannot get Gimp image editor to do what I want it to do. Sorry...
EDIT2: Got a shutdown

Now that is very cool. Thank you!
The power on screen is easy. The channel changing is the only thing I have a problem with. I don't know what images you want to change from and to. If you sent me some images you want to change, I got an idea of how I will do it.

[Q] unknown Russian home screens - hacked?

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.

Yeah, I designed it to be as much in the background as possible, but for the users who want to know when something is happening I included the option to show a notification.
I made a view bugfixes...

I like your app mate. However I'm not very fond of the icon you used, because as a thumbnail it doesn't look nice.
Also for a future release you might wanna consider adding a my wallpapers section where all downloads are kept. From there enable the option for automatic car changing.
Great selection by the way. I've been looking for good looking wallpapers for a while. App works good on my nexus 7 with CM11, however in landscape mode thumbnails start to flash and can't be seen, unless clicked upon. Issue is not present in portrait mode.
Edit: after a bit of browsing the flashing issue is present in all sections both in portrait and in landscape. Clicking on an item brings up a toast error that image isn't in favorites.

Thanks, that's great !

Showing last phone screen on launcher bug

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?
