Via ADB, I uninstalled some of the bloatware (only the recommended/safe apps) from my brand new Poco X3 NFC. Now the lock-screen wallpaper stays the same, no matter which one I choose. (I already rebooted and shut down the device a couple of times, though.)
I can change the home screen wallpaper normally (using the Wallpaper icon at the bottom left, which appears after tap&hold on home screen), but if I choose to apply the change to both home&lock screens or to lock-screen only, nothing changes.
One interesting thing is that tapping on "Wallpapers" in Settings doesn't do anything anymore.
Any idea about what could have gone wrong?
Did you solve this? the problem is definitely with removing some Xiaomie app, but which one and how can we get it back?

I had this a few year ago when I changed the launcher. MIUI wouldn't allow me to change the lock screen wallpaper when I used Nova Launcher
I guess it was Nova Launcher then, I think I was experimenting with it as well. But I don't have this phone anymore, though.
I too had the same situation until I reinstall the com.miui.miwallpaper package.
PS: The apk from the sites were not working for me so I got it via my friend who has a Redmi Note 10 Pro.

Hello
I bought my wife a Note 10.1 yesterday and when we had set-up her Google account we were greeted with a home screen like the one attached, having cleaned it up a little.
The problem initially appeared to be a form of a weather widget but it is persistent across all the screens, like the Google search bar or the App Drawer icon.
I noticed that the tablet came with ICS so I updated it to JB and it did that fine with no issues. However the weather "widget" (you can't actually select or remove it) remains there stuck on the screen.
I spoke to Samsung and they remotely connected to my tablet but did not know how to resolve the issue.
I then installed Nova Launcher to test if it would then go and it did. But we would prefer, at this stage, to use the default Touchwiz launcher, minus the issue, if possible.
Whilst the Nova launcher was running I cleared the data from the Touchwiz application and then used that as the default launcher. It then placed all the default widgets back to the home screen, as it would when first used, but that weather "thing" still remains.
I can't see any weather or Accu weather type instances running so has anyone got any ideas please how to restore the Touchwiz type launcher to look as it should and not have that persistent non selectable weather thing on the desktop...?
Have you tried a factory reset?

Thanks for that
As I was not rooted. and thus could not access any system apps - in case I could have replaced the touchwiz app etc, I felt that I had little choice but to reset the tablet.
That worked...!!!!!
The good thing being is tha twe had not spent too long in building it up.!
Hi, I have recently updated my samsung galaxy s6 to android 5.1.1, since updating, my launcher, apex pro isn't showing the icons within a folder on my home screen any more, its basically a folder that contained all my game apps.
I assume the issue was apex in someway maybe not being fully compataible with 5.1.1 but im not sure?
Th odd thing is, when i open tap the game folder, even though its all blank with no icons, they do seem to be there, but just invisible, if i tap where i know apps used to be in the folder, they do actually stop open, which is odd.
I have tried deleting the folder then doing a restore in apex but the same thing happens.
Also since updating to 5.1.1 some screens have also been a little laggy and my home screen was just black at one point and just showing the notification section / time but everything else was black and wouldn't go off, i had to restart phone to get it back to normal.
Can anyone offer any help?
Thanks

same on mine. I just let it be.. and now it does not have any lag. it fixed itself.
Hmmm...maybe Apex Launcher is not yet fully compatible with Android 5.1.1.
Hi all,
I've had a strange experience recently where at least once or twice a day whenever I close an app the phone defaults to stock launcher rather than Nova ( Nova is selected as default launcher)
I then have to manually go into settings and reselect Nova as default launcher.
Anyone having this issue or have any idea how to fix?
Thanks.
Me. mAny many many and many times. I give up of using nova launcher and I am using the horrible native launcher. Completely annoyed.
I am using nova for the past week. The only time I had this issue was when I tried to add a widget that is specific to the native launcher. I supposed you have added the launcher to ignore optimization?
I've got the same problem. Do you have the MHA-AL00? On the AL00 I definitely have this problem, but I don't remember having this problem on the L29. Yesterday, I set it for Nova to ignore battery optimizations, and it's been okay since then, though. Not sure how much that matters.
Edit: Literally ten seconds after typing this message, my phone went back to default launcher, so that's not how it's solved unfortunately.
There is a Nova setting called "Agressive Desktop". Enabling it seems to have fixed the issue.
A day later: Confirming that it works!!
===
This is Chinese model MHA-AL00
I've selected the aggressive desktop option...Will see what happens. I think this is specific to the Chinese ROM ( my handset is Chinese )
As an aside I dont see an option for a daydream clock in my ROM?
Smart Launcher here, no probs!
Didn't work for me. Still switches back despite enabling aggressive desktop.
There is one thing you can try, and that is to lock it in the recent apps list. Nova launcher settings won't show up if you are currently using the launcher. So set the default launcher to Huawei Home first. Then open Nova launcher and goto nova settings.
Press the home button, which should take you back to Huawei Home. Press recent apps. Nova settings should now show up in the recent apps. Press the little lock icon and lock it.
Not sure if it will work for you. So far it is okay for me.
Have tried the recent app lock mate... Thanks for the tip!
I just find all the Chinese android versions have super aggressive app kill properties, even after you go through all the optimisation and turning it off it still does it. The final jigsaw always seem to be locking the app into memory in the recent apps list. I had a xiaomi previously and that phone used to kill things even locked in recent apps -.-
Also was using the phone with Assistance & voice input setting changed to launcher 3 and trusted agent set to Smart Lock (Google). Today Smart Lock randomly popped up with my home address.
So right now I also have it auto unlocked while at home (not via bluetooth only). Now the problem is I cannot access the setting again
I agree. I did stop buying their phones for this reason but couldn't resist the mate 9
Hmmm... This was an issue that really bugged me, but it works now. Nova stays as default, and it's solid. Besides the Aggressive Desktop, I gave Nova all the possible permissions, so re-check that.
Tried aggressive desktop as well as locking in recent but nothing seems to work. Any other ideas?
Hello! I keep having this issue, as you can see, there are no icons on screen, except for the widgets. It only happens when i choose the App Drawer option, everything is normal when i use the Standard mode.
I already tried a factory reset, and extracting the Huawei Home apk from other Mate 9, installing it but nothing happened. Can anybody please help me? I haven't even unlocked the bootloader. It Is as stock as i bought it.
Hello i have bought from banggood power 6 with Android 9. I have some problems. First i set up a live wallpaper which is an automate wallpaper changer. After reboot lost this wallpaper and put the factory one. Same with widgets after reboot none of them works and have to set up them again. Third many apps need accessibility on but when i activate them after all are deactivated by themselvesself. And last in notification bar some apps need to be run such as weather but after some time close. I know there is something about battery optimization is about and duraspeed but how can i deactivated? Please help me cause device is totally useless
I had Power 2 a few years ago and iirc it comes with a custom launcher right out of the factory.
It is not using a standard android, you will see most icons like settings and so on already ooking different.
It also hat a problem or rather a lazy-ness thing. The phone downloaded latest anroid and securitxy updates but did not install them.
I was pretty disappointed.
i would probably only use it with a custom rom from the behinnin but that also had some issues.
But my power 2 fell from 30 centimeters and stopped working.
I don't want to put a custom rom or root but if this would help i will do it but is it possible to this device?i searched it but no luck
