HTC One M7 :: Android 4.3 Update No Longer Supports Different Wallpapers For Home And Lock Screens
Nov 15, 2013
My HTC One has recently updated to Android 4.3 + sense 5.5 and I find I can no longer use different wallpapers for my lock screen and home screen as I could previously. The facility apparently no longer exists. Yes, I know I can use a third party app like widget locker but why should I when the facility already existed. What is it these days that developers remove useful functions just because they see fit. Is this really progress? I lost my phone some weeks ago and because I had put my contact details on the lock screen + I.C.E details with a self-made wallpaper, my phone was returned to me within 3 hours of the loss.
I have an Xperia Z3. Since upgrading to Android 5.0.2 (Lollipop), I'm no longer able to rearrange the home screens. I used to be able to do this by long-pressing an empty area of the screen, then long-pressing the screen I want to move. This no longer works. It's there a fix?
I recently upgraded to the Curve 9330.I noticed the home screen has several views - Frequent, Downloads, Favorites, Media, and All.I only want to see the ALL screen. I get annoyed when I scroll sideways and it goes to these other home screen options.Can I lock down or hide the other screens?
It's like the toolbar at the top has somehow shifted over to the left on the homescreen and lockscreen of my phone.. taking away my clock, signal, etc... (see pictures below that I took) This only happened after I downloaded a software update last night.. called, iOS 5.1..?? I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it or not. Whenever I open an app, it goes back to normal though..
I keep my phone in one of those super heavy duty otter box cases so it's not physically damaged or anything..might not be relevant but just throwing that out there!! =)
also.. on a side note, the option to open the camera from the lock screen is now on my phone, don't know how it got there.. did that come with the software update, and is it a setting you can choose whether or not to have on there?
I asked this a long time ago for the Nokia Nuron, and there was no answer. I'm hoping that with the N8 there is a solution.
Is there any way to "lock" a N8, which allows anything to be clicked on or viewed, but does not allow any changes to anything without knowing a "key"?
I'm tired of letting people check out my phone, and then having to go through everything to make sure it is still the way I want it to be. I doubt there is any kind of answerr, but I figured I'd ask anyway, "just in case".
I do like showing off my phone, if someone is interested. I think it's rather dumb that anyone holding the phone can change things from pressing or moving the wrong thing.
I have the Myspace account in my accounts but the user name is blank and all grayed out. There's no password either. I can't removed the account. The icon is not the Myspace icon either. Its some weird green icon instead. Also my staus updates don't update themselves when I update from Facebook or Twitter.
Electrify on U S Cellular. When moving from one home screen to another has just a slight lag or more of jerk then a fluid movement.
All the other menus or navigating around the phone is smooth as silk. I do run a live wallpaper but changing to a static one it seems the same. With all the horsepower this phone is supposed to have I expected those screens to just to fly by smoothly.
When the refresh update came out , I updated it directly through my phone avoiding nokia suite it gave me new goodies and seemed like a minor + point.. Its only after updating my phone through nokia care just to boost up my memory it I started noticing flaws..such as 1) Stripped support of Nokia Reader ( one of the best push notigivation marvell ) 2) Horrible mail client ( just a joke with push mail virtually snapped ) 3) And Now Lyrics support that was present after updating it via phone is also not present..
I have only had my new Galaxy s 2 phone for a few months and ran a system update. after doing so, i can no longer set wallpapers to the landscape style, so on my main screen i can pan the picture as i flip screens.
How does one get access to the debug/engineering screens on a Hero/G1/MyTouch3G? I want to be able to see tower/phone info and such. I've searched to no avail.
After the lollipop update, and unlike previous version, i now have 2 lock screens to pass - the general one and then the pin code due to my microsoft exchange account settings.
Since I downloaded 5.0.2, the photos I set as lock screen wallpapers become dim. Basically, my lock screen shows the time clearly, but the wallpaper is dark. I tried boosting the brightness of the photo, but it looks bad...
I'm coming from Samsung S3. I could not set a live wallapaper for my lockscreen in Z2..Is there a workaround or should it be expected in newer software release?
I was wondering, is it possible to get a different wallpaper for each page on your homescreen. Without jailbreaking it. It would be a pretty awesome feature.
after installing the Android 5.1.1 update on my Galaxy S6 edge almost all home screen icons have disappeared, even the bottom ones like phone, contacts and messages.The apps icons in the app drawer have also completely disappeared. The apps are still there and working, but I can only access them when I get a new notification.I have tried rebooting several times, and clearing the Touchwiz launcher data, but nothing changes.
I was prompted to update my MotoX yesterday 12/09/15 and wow - what a pain! The home button no longer works to go home and has another completely useless function (Now on Tap?) when it is long held. Might have value for some people but I just want the home button to take me home. I can't find anywhere how to disable or reprogram it.
Also NONE of the external links are working in any of my email programs or Facebook. When I tap on them, most of them open up Chrome but don't actually go to the correct website - Chrome opens to the Google search or the last webpage I was viewing. Copy and paste does work when the website address is there but links from facebook aren't able to be copied.
I have cleared the cache in Recovery mode to no effect. Multiple reboots have not corrected anything. Uninstalling email programs and reinstalling them also did not work.
In Galaxy S5, I could easily add a memo Widget to my Home screens; so far, I can't find a memo widget IN Galaxy S6. I CAN download a memo widget app--but, I'd rather use the included memo app, if possible---
I mean it's weird. You pick a beautiful wallpaper for your lock screen and then apply it and then you open the phone up to that lock screen image and it looks like someone put a heavy gray filter over your beautiful picture.
Why? -- and more importantly, is there any way to get your selected lock screen wallpaper to show up without this dark filtering?
I have a Razr HD on Fido in Canada, due to the horrible stuttering it had it was suggested I do a hard reset to fix it. After doing the hard reset, it's now in an infinite loop of the android update logo (green android with the spinning blue thing), then the motorola logo, then a black screen.
I have noticed for about a month or so, when some apps update automatically (most recent was facebook this morning) my home screen wallpaper picture gets removed and the plain green backround is there.
I then have to go back into wallpaper to reset it. I am using a Samsung Galaxy5.
I'm stock unrooted and still waiting for the 6.0.1 update.
Starting yesterday, all of my widgets began just disappearing. I put them back, and and later in the day they're gone again. Three of them on two different home screens.
