Over the weekend I swapped from CleanRom Lite to Beans build 10. I noticed that I can no longer change the wallpaper background on my lock screen. I use golauncher and also noticed that I am no longer able to change app drawer wallpaper background.
Anybody else seeing this problem?

Are you using the gallery to change it. It will not work with the 4.2 gallery if you selected that in aroma during install. No sure about go launcher tho as I haven't used that since pre-ics days
So when I go to that option, it only allows me to pick a wallpaper using gallery. It won't allow me to use any of the other media apps like quickpic...
Can that be changed? How can I have the phone allow me to use quick pic at the choose lock screen wallpaper selection screen?

Here's what mine looks like even after I change lock screen wallpaper using quick pic to set.

You need to open gallery, find the pic you want, hit menu, then set as. This will bring up options where to set it
After I do that, the wallpaper remains the same. This really isn't that big of a deal, just a small thing I would like to be able to do. Any thoughts on why it won't take?
I will try restarting the phone and see if that does anything...

Hmmmm. Not really sure from here. Could be an issue from the pin lock? Have you tried changing it to swype and see if it works? If not I'm not sure, maybe a go launcher issue.

lock screen issue
hello buddy
is there a way to change the lock screen which came with the rom using root explorer in some how?
I know we have to uninstall Facebook and Messenger in order to install Facebook Home. Since Facebook is integrated with HTC, how do we accomplish this?

Once you're rooted and either s-off or installing a kernel that allows write to system, then you use an app like root explorer to delete those apps from system/app.

Try disabling the native FB ap before you download the hacked version then reset up facebook from there. Worked for me stock dNA

The version I installed from these forums included a ~17mb Katana (fb app) apk and a ~260kb fb home apk, I just installed the Katana apk (installed over old one) and then installed home apk. It said "facebook home isn't for your device yet", then went to the fb app, which said "finish setup" and then it asked me to choose HTC Sense or Facebook Home as a default launcher and I chose home, and it works perfect.
Although I highly recommend you go into apps settings and turn on forced GPU 2D rendering for Facebook, as it lags alot without it.
I got it running (actually liking it so far ) but my messages won't show the keyboard? I can't respond. The messages go all the way to the bottom.

The Messenger App just won't let me enter text in for text messages. That's the problem. I used to the guide on XDA to install the com.orca (messenger). Texts notify and display, chat heads shows up. Just no way for me to send texts thru it.

Facebook home will not let me can't drag tool bar on the top of Facebook Home so that it is not convenient to see the miss call.And it cannot change the wallpaper,strongly hoped they improved the experience quickly.

Bump...for interest. Anyone got version 1.1 apk working or as a lock screen?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=robj.floating.notifications I ran into this the other day and thought wow this works really well espcially for mycolorscreen set up i have curretnly with no status bar or anyting was really liking, i believe this is to replicate the "holo" feature on cm rom's you guys tried this what do you guys think??
So ive seen this out for a while now, and thought it was some cheesey knockoff version of Holo. I said to myself why waste my time. Then seeing this thread, and being bored I just gave it a go. Boy am I glad I did, ive run AOSP roms with holo and its still nothing compared to this. This is like simple multitasking amd they can be hidden whenever! Much better!
Thanks for being the one to make me finally try this out!

No problem I thought the same as well I haven't actually tried the holo but I love this as I tend to stick with tw bases

Been running it since build 2...big fan. It's great for quick views of emails/text etc when watching a movie or playing a game without having to exit and go to the app directly. You can view the header and then decide if you want to respond or not.
Really good find. can't wait to play with this
I made a youtube video about this when it was in beta stage. The developer is in the android apps and games forum. This is good stuff even for people that arent rooted. :thumbup:

Put myself in hot-reboot city last night. Enabled this in accessibility, rocking Beans 18 and AOSP lock screen - just started hot booting to the lock screen. Touch the lock - cycle repeats. Pulled the notification bar to get into settings and turned it off. It stopped.
I'm guessing AOSP lock screen + Xposed status bar + this checked in accessibility = no bueno.

Same exact set up (minus xposed status bar) and had the same issue with rebooting. Issue started 5 minutes after installing the app and allowing accessibility. Issue stopped after I deleted the app. Gonna try to see if I can change a few things to get it working.

The issue is AOSP lockscreen and Accessibility settings. If you're on standard TW lockscreen, there are no problems. Had the same issue with LightFlow previously.
The only thing I have a problem with, and its probably something that cant be fixed is when I get the bubble on the lock screen and click on it ot doesnt unlock. Any fix for this?

click it and then click the actual text it self should pull the app up or the notification up... if i remember right

Good to know.
I assumed as much, but I love the AOSP lock screen. No lock/pattern AND music controls. Plus, the clock looks cleaner.
How well does this app work without accessibility turned on? Or does it? I flipped it on at about 2 am and messed around for about 15 mins before I started my trip to Las Bootsville, so I didn't get any notifications then.

Caused my phone to freeze up too. Didn't try this fix but will give it a try and see what happens. I hope it works.
Is there any way to make a selective widget, like the DuckDuckGo widget, persistent in the place of the Google search widget? I ask this because the Google search widget that is persistent doesn't take up a complete grid like it would if I was to add the DuckDuckGo widget to every page at the top.
Adding the DuckDuckGo widget drops everything down much further, even with another grid space added on Nova, than just having the persistent widget does.
I saw with Lightning Laughed you could "pin" a widget in place and it is almost like using a persistent widget, in that it stays in the same place as you scroll through homescreens, but its still very very different. I have also seen Overlays but that is completely different as well.
So is there any way to modify Nova, and of the other launchers, or a ROM to use the DuckDuckGo widget as persistent instead of the Google search bar?

I've been researching for the past couple of days and the closest thing I have been able to find is Lightning Launcher. Sadly that isn't even close to what I'm wanting. I'm going to keep looking and see if I ever run across something, which looks doubtful at this point...

Apparently SS Launcher allows pinning as well, I am currently emailing the Dev and discussing persistent widgets but I don't have much hope because he doesn't seem to know what I am talking about or the differences.
I am going to start looking for a way to edit it but I'm not very hopeful I'll find a solution.

Not at all, the ssLauncher Dev has no idea what I a, talking about, he doesn't speak English as his first language so its extremely hard for me to explain things to him. I eventually gave up.
I've heard that the Dev responsible for Action Launcher adds just about anything his users ask for so I am going to email him later today and see if he can and would add that. Ive been trying to figure this out for quite a while and no one knows anything about it and the few that do, I've found 2 people who supposedly know, don't want to explain what edits need to be made.
I'll post back when I get dome talking with the Dev over Action Launcher!

why don't you use a launcher that allow for widget overlapping so you don't have to worry about grid size?

Hey guys. Just thought I'd see what everyone uses their multi app Windows for. I think it's a great idea but I can never think of 2 apps I'd use at the same time.
I turned mine off because i dont like the tab thats on the side of the phone. Texting and browsing is one good use for it. Easy to copy and paste links between the two. Although its pretty easy to swap between the two using the home key too.

I usually use mines for copying information into a notepad / memo.
YouTube and a browser bc YT stops when its in the background and with a mod'd YouTube apk, I can listen with the screen turned off
I haven't used it once, the phone switches windows so fast

Student GMail -> calendar. I get notified of school meetings and stuff all the time. Multiwindow makes it very easy to copy over the information into my Google calendar.
But that's really my only use for it. It is nice for this purpose, but I could live without.
Copying links/addresses or other information to a text is a good use, as is from any app to a note taking app.

On TW if you hold the back softkey button while multi-window is enabled it hides the bar until you want it again. Simply hold the back button once more for it to show. =)

Custom ROM that enables multiwindow for all apps or root with multiwindow manager.

I have to agree, aside from the cool factor of actually being able to do it, I have not found a practical use for it.
I use it when copy/pasting login credentials from LastPass.

Cool thanks guys
I have used it a couple of times to text while I watch a movie or video.
Before I had the phone, I thought I would use the multi-window a lot and was excited about it.
Tried using it a few times and it just wasn't clicking for me.
I think if I could incorporate my apps with it or if it were more intuitive, maybe I would use it. I don't know.
As of now I have it disabled.
I would like a better app switcher, though. Something like Zephyr for the jailbroken iphone.
