Wallpaper issue - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hey guys, I have an issue with my wallpaper and I should say I had the same issue on my s3 but just ignored it...anyways my wallpaper (not live) everytime I go back to the home screen or after I unlock my phone the wallpaper shifts/glitches for a split second then settles in its normal spot. I have removed my clocks or any icons on the screen and still does it, tried different wallpapers ( including stock) and still does it, sadly cant remember if it did it when I got it, any suggestions?

Do you know what resolution it is? It could be the phone trying to resize it every time you turn it on or something. I've never had any issues but I put a live wallpaper on my phone instantly.

[Q] Changing Backround for Lockscreen on SC2.8

Hey
I dont know if anyone has come across this
For me after updating my fascinate to 2.8,
my lock screen wont show my background like it did before.
It just has black screen
Is there a way i can change this?
I havent heard of this happening. Your wallpaper isn't black?

This happened to me a couple months ago. I don't remember what I did to "fix" it. I didn't really even notice though until it DID start showing my wallpaper on the lock screen again. Once I noticed though, I realized that I liked it better being plain black on the lock screen
Try setting a live wallpaper, clearing cache, rebooting. See if any of that helps.
HM!
Changing the wallpaper to live wallpaper did it..
That sure is weird..
Thanks!
Sweet! Glad that fixed it.
works for me, have u tried lockbot?

multipicture live wallpaper reloads

I download multipicture LWP some time ago, i did some settings for different wallpapers, but everytime i turn my prime from landscape to portrait the screen goes black and the picture loads new (nedds about 2secs)...
Does anyone have a solution?
That is how it works. It has to resize the image everytime you turn the screen.
I've noticed that too plus it redraws even just sitting there in landscape or portrait every once in a while. I've sent feedback to the Dev but no answer.
This annoys me too. I set the picture to change once every 12 hours but it seems to change once or twice an hour?
Any ideas how to stop this?
I got sick of the wallpaper reloading every time the tablet changed orientation, so in ADW Ex launcher I set it so that it stays in landscape no matter what. Not exactly a solution but at least it prevents the reload from happening.
I still get random reloads sometimes while just on the launcher.

Lockscreen colour issue

Hi Guys
My sgs 3 has a strange pattern on the lockscreen wallpapers, if they are dark you can see like brighter areas, bits of say a full black wallpaper show as grey.
I did think the screen was faulty but when I use same wallpapers for home screen/view pics/movies this problem is not there, its only on the lockscreen wallpaper, If I use a very bright one its hard to see but any black/dark red/blue/dark green will show this odd blotch...mainly right side.
Thanks for any help
Settings>Security>Lock screen options
Untick "Ripple effect".
Is there some issue with the phone? Movies/games/pics all fine, I just get strange blotch on lockscreen, and what makes it even stranger if I use a live wallpaper on the lockscreen its fine,i only get the problem if i set a picture for the lockscreen 9worse with dark colours)

As B3311 just pointed out, turn off ripple effect and the weird pattern on lockacreen is gone. It needs to be there in order to be able to create the ripple effect.
Hi
I saw the post but I am just keen to find out what/why its there, you say it needs to be but that seems like a odd thing for Samsung to have, is there other posts covering this as I would like to find out if this is a samsung tech reply (its normal) or if its been seen by us and thats an answer we have came to.
thanks

Lockscreen issue - grey blacks (more so at sides)

Hey, I got another issue yesterday. When the "ripple" (water) effect is active in the lockscreen options, the wallpaper basically lightens the right side of any wallpaper selected. If the wallpaper happens to be a pure black wallpaper, the lockscreen actually displays a GREY image, with a lighter shade of grey on the right side of the screen. It works fine though on the homescreen if the same image is selected, which is kinda odd. Mind you, it was working perfectly before this.
Also, today I noticed some "loophole" that allows me to select live wallpapers in the "home and lock screen", which I could not perform prior to this. Trying to change the "lock screen" though, does not give me the "live wallpaper" option (which is the normal behaviour).

yup i noticed this also must be needed to create ripples i mean the water needs to bounce off something right? loljk
it's only on the lockscreen with the ripple effect active.

No. Previously it was purely black, it only happened yesterday. =.=|| When you first get the phone, these issues are not there. I already owned the phone for 18 days or so.
EDIT: nvm, just realised you put "loljk" there >_<
bump still having this issue even with XXALF6 update
I'm gonna bump this as it just happened to me as well. Any fixes?
I think it's on all phones but you guys didn't notice
No it wasn't there when I first got the phone. I had a black lock screen without issues for a moment, and then this issue popped out of nowhere. Problem still persists until now. It only happens in the stock lock screen and not for widget locker etc.

The problem just randomly popped up for me too. After about a week of working properly. pretty strange problem.

I'm gonna bump this again, just in case someone found a fix for it.
Same Problem Exists
I'm bumping this too as I can confirm the same issue. A fix would be appreciated Samsung.
Seems to be a problem only when the lock screen background is very black. Also same issue, rooted I-9300. But downloading a different lock screen helps (I'm using holo lock screen, which looks like the JB lock).

Wallpaper preview (stuck showing an old screen)

Previously, no matter what over the past year or so I was able to see the entire preview of any live wallpaper or regular wallpaper that I was about to apply, but now after some changes (and I don't know what), all of a sudden there is a STUCK set of icons that I cannot get removed, and it says Preview in top left with a bunch of crap on the screen. Does anyone know how to fix this? It is EXTREMELY annoying, and I even redid my phone just to get rid of it. Yes, it was annoying me THAT much. Problem is... it is STILL there.
Nobody knows how to make live wallpaper preview always show the full screen?
