Has/Is anyone else experienced/ing this problem?
When downloading a file (in my case .MP4 files) the file does not properly display in the notification screen. My lettering is black and the only way I can see the file name/information is if I highlight the file, one at a time.
All my other notifcations display fine (in white) but not when d/l .MP4 files.
I should also mention I'm using Skyfire but never had this problem on my SGS2.
Any ideas?

Not sure if this is the correct place to ask this, and I've found various threads that discuss registry settings, themes and the splash screens, but none seem to specifically address the following issue.
On boot-up, my welcomehead.96.png graphic initially displays correctly, then after several seconds, solid colored bars appear (i.e. Today screen header/ footer) in the lower and upper portion of the screen partially covering the welcomehead graphic. I've tried replacing the welcomehead graphic, the obstructions are still there but appear slightly different (upper bar is a portion of the original graphic but slightly shifted to the right and partially transparent).
I've tried tweaking HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Color Basehue, that doesn't seem to fix it. Also, I believe the problem began after adding a WMBE.cab theme from Black 3.0.1 (now running Custel 2.5 bbc). The weird beahavior did not manifest on the initial flash on the Custel ROM.
EDIT: Actually, on closer examination, it looks like the welcomehead image has been shifted up due to the insert of a footer bar.
Could it be an ini or setup file??
iLauncher Caused It
After a hard reset, and trial and error application re-installation, I figured out that iLauncher 3.0.04 was causing the problem. welcomehead.96.png loads initially no problem, then after a few seconds the image flashes and a lower system tray bar is inserted and a portion of the original images shifts up about 60 pixels. Before install and after removal of the app, welcomehead works correctly.
iLauncher Fix
Either iLauncher 3.0.05 fixes the welcomehead issue, or installing the app to the SD card took care of it, not sure which.

3.0.05 Doesn't Fix It
It looks like 3.0.05 didn't actually fix the issue, once trial period ran out I entered an S/N and the problem returned. So something about activation causes the issue. I may re-flash my ROM (or try another ROM) and register right away and see if problem persists.
I'm really enjoying this phone when it is running smoothly but it seems that inconsistent behaviours are happening that is kind of annoying, anyone else having any of these following issues?
1) When the display turns off and I tap the power button to turn on the display it goes right to my home menu and skips my password and lock page.
2) Some songs and videos it will say are not compatible, even though they are mp3 and mp4's and I have watched them numerous times prior.
3) the app icons on my home screen don't have there own unique images they just have the default white background with the green droid icon. (not a huge deal just weird)
4) when composing a message and choosing who to send it to normally I could type in the start of the last name "smi" for ex: and it would bring up Mike Smith for an option, now it only finds people by there first name so I would have to type "Mike" (again not a huge deal just odd)
Overall they are not deal breakers by any means, just a little annoying and odd.
Anyone else having any of these issues?

1. I usually have this issue. I just restart the phone to fix it. It does get real annoying though.
2. I never listen to music on the phone so I don't know.
3. Never had that happen.
4. I have that issue as well. Don't have a solution.
Hey, I'm having a weird screen issue and wasn't sure where else to post. After I installed a custom rom, whenever my screen has a particular blue on the screen (for example the Facebook messenger blue) lines flicker on the blue. The lines are mostly verticle but some faint horizontal ones are visible too. I hadn't noticed this on the older rom. Any ideas what might cause it?
I think this is a bug – but it may be a stupid question on my part. Apologies if so. I'm primarily an iOS user on mobile, and the Gemini (which I'm loving so far…) is my first serious experience of Android.
OK, so I was playing with customisation options for my home screen, and although I actually really like the default dark blue starfield background that comes preset on the machine, I decided to swap it for an 'early morning sky' photo that I typically use on all my mobile devices. (It's a photo I took myself years ago, and works really well as a backdrop.)
After touching 'Set wallpaper', I elected to set my new background for both home screen AND lock screen. Fine; that worked OK and looks good. But I subsequently changed my mind and wished I'd stuck with the standard starfield for the lock screen. So I went back to the wallpaper options to change the lock screen only.
At this point I discovered the problem/bug. The thumbnail of the starfield picture is still there to be selected, and if I touch it, it covers the screen like it did before, so everything appears OK. However, when I click on 'Set wallpaper' and choose the option, regardless of what I choose (home screen, lock screen or both), there's a pause and then the starfield vanishes, leaving me with a completely black background. I can set the background image to any new photo that I supply myself without problems, but any attempt to reapply the original starfield graphic fails, which is rather a shame.
Can anyone tell me where I can locate the starfield graphic on the system? I've tried browsing the file system (with hidden files visible) but haven't found it. Or can anyone perhaps supply the file so that I can copy it back to the device if perhaps it only now exists in a cache or some such problem? I'd really like to get the image back.
Thank for any help.

Can confirm I have the same issue after re-flashing with the latest stock Android. Explains why I've still got a black screen!
+1 , same thing seen (or not seen if you prefer lol)

I believe this is a bug. I got around this by a long winded method. I selected the "star field" thumbnail so it covers the screen. At this point I took a screen shot by pressing Fn + R and then you can go to your gallery app, select the screen shot image, crop anything you don't want such as the bar at the top and then set the edited screen shot as your background. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the suggestion. That's a good workaround.
Hi,
I want to create a lock screen for my amazfit bip so that it hides most part of the screen and shows only the time and a logo.
I've created the images, but the weather icon and text is still there. How can I put them below the lock image?
Thanks in advance!
Share the .bin file and i‘ll check it
The lock image must cover all parts except the time (and the other things you want to see)
I have a question too. I've made a digital watch face with seconds and thought of covering the seconds up while the screen is locked (in order to save juice). So I made a PNG lock image that's all transparent except for the seconds. All looks great in the WF editor, but when I install the WF on the Bip, it somehow screws up the display. No matter what I try, the seconds keep ticking and something else gets covered up instead.
I've uploaded it.
Strange. It seems to me it works not as I've expected:
"ImageIndexOn" is shown when the screen is unlocked.
Is this OK?
