[Q] Lost old TV effect when screen goes off. Anyone else? - Nexus S General

I rooted my phone and then restored apps and data (call logs, MMS, SMS) using titanium backup but I just realized that I lost the old tv effect when screen goes off. It was there before restoring apps and data. Has anyone else experienced this issue? If so, how do I get the effect back?
Thanks

Do you have the app" spare parts" installed. One of the settings in spare parts disables it.

Yup, changing the window animations away from normal will have it be nullified.

instead of trying to set the wallpaper through lockscreen setting go directly to the image you want and set it through there. probably will not work but it did once for me.

Wish I knew about this last night. Couldn't figure out how to fix it and ended up doing a factory reset. ?
Go to app. List in settings - All apps - search for Lockscreen - wipe cache, data and stop the app service...
Change the lockscreen wallpaper once again...
Worked for me..!!! ;-D

Icons reappear slowly after hitting home key

After using apps (no specific one) and hitting the home button to go back to the home screen, my background is blank then after a second or 2 all my icons appear. Anyone else have this happen? It seems to have started yesterday or day before. Just wondering what could cause it. I know it does it when I clear memory under "Task Manager>RAM". But this seems to be happening more and more.
Edit: I noticed that the screen will black out with my led blue and will not come on till I do a battery pull. This has happened about 3-4 times so far. Any ideas......anyone.....anyone

What's your current setup? Stock/Rooted? What tweaks/mods have you done? What apps do you have installed?

yes, stock rooted, note 2 hidden features, xposed installer, wanam xposed, flash gordon, notifyclean, xquick settings, 5x4 launcher, isis root bypass, pen window manager, titanium backup, sqlite, with other basic and stock apps, some apps are frozen like amazon and verizon bloat. I'm using a couple of Gunthermics inverted themes to google play, mms and maps as well.
Could be any one of those mods, my friend. I know it'll be a pain but can you disable most if not all? Start with the 5x4 launcher, then Wanam

You have deleted a system app via debloating which has disabled it. Easier Freezing apps with TB then if you have issues you can go back and unfreeze and fix.
Two options now. Find the files you require to fix clock etc OR reflash your stock ROM (dirty flash so you don't lose data)
Oh and word of advice, if you don't know what it does... DON'T delete it. That's how things get broken.
In case you still have a problem it's because you deleted the fonts, try changing to a font that you haven't deleted and it should be back

I don't remember deleting a font. Oh well. Ha ha. Thanks for pointing out the mistake. Fixed by selecting new font.

Stock Clock Widget Re-sizing on it's own?

Anyone know of a fix? My clock will randomly be tiny in the center of my screen, but when I press and hold it to re-size it's already as big as it will go? So I go small, then back to big to make it full size again
I have removed the Widget
Stock Everything
Driving me CRAZY!

Have you tried clearing cache and data of your clock?

I have and just wiped Device cache as well.
I guess now I wait...
Nope! Still doing it! Someone has to have a fix for this!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Does no one know how to fix this? Is it just something I have to deal with & there is no fix? A Bug? Will be fixed in a future release?

You are the only person I've ever read of having this issue. I agree it's weird and I'm sure rather frustrating. Anything short of just wiping the device and flashing the factory image may be in vein. As long as you flash the image and don't restore any data I would be shocked if it came back.
Ugh... Wiped, FDR without restore and still having the same issue...
Okay, so I just got a replacement 6P for a pink screen issue & the damn clock widget still does the same thing? That's 2 separate phones with the same issue? I can't be the only one...
Some other app is causing it.

Take screen shots of what its supposed to look like and of what it ends up looking like. The only thing that would cause that on mine is if I put some other widget near it and it was fighting for the same footprint.

I have a very minimal Home Screen. There is nothing in the way to abstruct the Clock Widget
I have the same problem. It's been happening ever since the last update to the clock app. I think it has something to do with them making the widget resizeable for the Google now launcher. Im using Nova. It's definitely not your phone. It's a bug in the clock app.

Have you tried dragging the lines as far as possible so the whole screen is the widget padding? Just an idea. I use Google now launcher/apex launcher and have not had any issues. I'll try with Nova and see if it happens.
I have this issue. I only use nova and it happens to me most time. Im not using the widget anymore. Just using zooper widget.
I think making the widget bigger than it needs to be has fixed it! Yay! Thx Gizmoe

Wallpaper Motion Effect Option Gone

It seems for some reason I don't get the motion effect option toggle anymore when I set up a static wallpaper.
When I first set up the phone, the option was there. Then after a few hours I tried another wallpaper and now the option is permanently gone. No restarts, clearing theme cache or resetting settings manage to bring back the option toggle. Not even using the same picture.
Anybody else experiencing this?

You're a friggin genius!!! Thank you. That was bugging me to no end.
Thanks, I was wondering where the option had gone! It must have been cleared when I tried the Pixel launcher.
I had the same issue today, where I couldn't understand why the motion effect was gone. Then I remembered it had something to do when I installed Nova Launcher. I tried the launcher but I didn't quite like it so I deleted it. I went to settings and checked if touchwiz was checked on and it was not. Always Make sure touchwiz is your default home screen. Simple little thing that can really make you go nuts. It's working great now.
Perfect Solution

Motion Effect Issue
Hi everyone,
I called Samsung technical support and they told me within 2 mins now to fix the Wallpaper Motion Effect Issue.
These are the steps to follow..
1- Settings
2- Apps
3- The top right hand corner has a tab with 3 dots, hit that and go to "Default Apps.
4- Go to "Home Screen
5- Final step is, after going to "Home Screen" make sure "Touchwiz Home" is selected. If it's not Select it and that will fix the "motion effect" issue.
??
Hope that helps.
