Homescreen and lockscreen wallpaper keeps changing automatically - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently bought an LG V30+ and in order to make it feel more Pixel-like I replaced the LG stock launcher with modified Pixel launcher (https://forum.xda-developers.com/and...oogle-t3688393) and started using the live wallpapers that Pixel 2 has.
Everything worked out just fine before I decided to try out Microsoft's Next Lock Screen which changed the wallpaper on both homescreen and lockscreen. Of course this was easily fixed by changing the wallpaper back to the live one. Eventually I decided that the Next Lock Screen wasn't for me so I disabled it and removed it.
However, even after disabling and removing the Next Lock Screen application my wallpaper keeps reverting back to the default wallpaper that Next Lock Screen uses (the wallpaper that changes daily) after a few hours or everytime I restart my phone and I have to manually change the wallpaper back to what I want on both the lockscreen and homescreen. This is pretty annoying so any help would be greatly appreciated. Factory reset would obviously get rid of this problem, but since I've spent a good while already customizing apps I wouldn't like to do that just yet. I even reinstalled Next Lock Screen, then disabled it and removed every single permission it has, removed its cache entirely, and then removed the whole application. This still happens after doing so and it baffles my mind.
I found this old thread about this issue: https://nextlockscreen.uservoice.co...gestions/9153130-wallpaper-changes-on-its-own I'm just wondering how this behaviour still continues even after removing the whole app.

[Q] Widgetlocker + Beautiful Widgets Unlock Animation

I've an issue regarding the combination of the Beautiful Widget screen unlock animation and the widgetlocker app that I was hoping someone could give advice/pointers on. I'm using a Nexus S with Oxygen 2.3.1 ROM
I have beautiful widget on one of my homescreens with the unlock animation activated. I've also got Widgetlocker activated on top of the android pattern unlock. What I notice is that weather animation sometimes has issues appearing.
When I unlock the device, turn the screen off, and unlock the device very quickly, the animation does appear. But if I wait a few extra seconds before screen-unlock, the animation sometimes shows up.
If i use only widgetlocker or only the android pattern unlock, the animation always appears.
has anyone reproduced this issue or know a way around it? thanks!!
I've got the same issue. I use the pin lock, but same thing. It seems if you unlock quick enough, you can see the animation, but it disappears a split second later. Its like Widget Locker triggers the animation instead of the pin lock screen, and the animation is starting behind the scenes while i type in my pin. Your right though, if I turn the screen off, then unlock again right after, it works.
I think there are two issues here:
1. The Android unlock screen should trigger the animation, not Widget Locker
2. The animation does start, but the duration is set to 20 seconds, and it dies within 1 second.
I was hoping there was a Widget Locker setting that might compensate for this. I tried "root helper" to no avail. Also, there is a setting that says "Retain System Keyguard (not recommended. but may help interactions with other lockscreen-related programs)", no dice.
For what it's worth, I have a Samsung Infuse 4g running SGH_I997_UCKK4 Rom (a Samsung leak).
I'm using fold 3 fancy widget stoped working all together. So now I've installed beautiful widget a nd the unlock animations are not working at all. When I open the app I see the clouds moving so I know It should be working. I've cleaned the cache and still nothing any suggestions from anyone? Wish there was another app to have windshield whiper when it rains like fancy widget...

[Q] Pattern Unklock screen wallpaper won't change

Hi, I've got a strange problem that for the life of me I can't figure out!
I've changed my Desktop wallpaper, and Lockscreen wallpaper but for some strange reason when I unlock my phone (the wallpaper is correct at the initial unlock screen) when I slick to unlock, I am shown the screen to enter my pattern, I am shown my old wallpaper!? Once the device is unlocked, the desktop has the correct new one?!
Where is this held?! I've tried every combo I can think of to change it, but no luck!
I'm using Halo Launch, and Widget Locker if that makes any difference. I've tried disabling both of these and using the defaults but the pattern screen still shows the old wallpaper!?

Lockscreen shortcuts no longer pull up?

I don't know how this happens, this is the 2nd time since I've factory restored, but on my lockscreen (no password, only wallpaper) the icons aren't draggable. Clicking anywhere on the screen unlocks the device. It's bizarre and I don't prefer this.
Running tmo h1 stock rom rooted.
Edit: Found the reason. Caused me to delete HTC Sense data too -_-;;
If Tasker has accessibility marked ON, it fudges with the native Sense Lockscreen.

Lock screen not working properly because of notification app installed

I just want to share my recent issue with my Sense lock screen not working properly. To disable the lock screen, you normally would need to swipe up, and the same goes for the dock shortcuts. For some reason, my lock screen suddenly stopped working that way. Just by clicking anywhere on the screen, it will disable the lock screen without having to swipe up. Any Sense lock screen I chose had the same problem. This was really annoying me as my concern about accidental dial or text begins to grow. I tried to disable and uninstall different apps that I have recently installed. Unfortunately, I've been installing plenty of apps and didn't realize that the lock screen got messed up. After so many uninstall or disable of apps, I found out that the NotifierPro app was the culprit. It didn't play nice with the Sense lock screen. I thought if somebody had the same issue, might be good to check if you have NotifierPro installed or any app that will display notification while your phone is locked, that might be causing the problem with your lock screen.
Thanks so much for figuring this out. I've been wondering why my lockscreen stopped working all of a sudden. It was because I had installed light flow.
Any notification app that needs accessibility service turned on will affect the Sense lock screen. I'm really disappointed because there's plenty of notification apps I like to use such as notifier pro and the floating notification that's available here on XDA. I really hope there's a fix for this issue.
Sent from my HTC One
ahhh thank you for figuring this out. I was wondering for awhile what it was and didn't remember that I had recently installed notification history (uninstalled some keyboards and other random apps though). It was fixed for a little bit after a software update, but came back. Makes sense now that it probably wasn't until I received my first notification again that it stopped working...
Uninstalled it and voila...back to normal!

[Q] Anyone having trouble getting lockscreen wallpaper to stick?

I'm trying to change the lockscreen wallpaper but whether I apply it only as lockscreen or as both home/lockscreen, the wallpaper wont change. I've disabled any mods to the lockscreen and restarted the phone but nothing. Could I be missing something?
I had this for awhile also. Never figured it out. It went away after I Flashed a new ROM. I always thought it was something to do with xposed. Sometimes it does weird things.
Have you tried changing it under display settings/lockscreen
