Corrupt Live Wallpaper Picker? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Title pretty much explains it all..
When I try to select any live wallpaper, it force closes and tells me that an error occurred while trying to open live wallpaper picker (or something along the lines of that).
I tried clearing the cache and fixing permissions, but the problem still persists. Do you thing picking the application out of another rom and replacing my current app would help?
Right now I'm running Graviton, basically how it comes minus a few (unimportant) apps.
Thanks in advance!

weather widget issue

Hi everyone.
I've got this problem after upgrading to 2.2. The thing is that, when set to "current location" my weather widget doesn't give me the name of my town but just says "current location". The weather conditions are exactly the same as ones that I would get if I added my town manually, it just can't show the name.
I tried almost everything I could, removing and re-adding clock and weather widgets, turning off and on gps and/or wireless, clearing cache for widgets, soft resetting the phone, but nothing worked. When I remove the clock from the main screen and re-add it again it knows somehow where my "home" is, but it won't work for the weaher.
I tried some other widgets (beautiful widgets, animated weather...) and they could recognize my true location with no problems. Maps and Latitude apps both locate me very precisely. iGo does that too.
Everything worked well before the upgrade so I am thinking about reverting it to v2.1 somehow but I am afraid that I could do something wrong, plus I'm not sure if that'd solve anything.
I'd be very grateful to anyone who tries to help

[Q] i9506 touchwiz problem

After using the phone for a while a strange problem occurs. The widgets turn black but if you tap on them, they work. Just on home screen they look black.
If you enter to the Apps menu and try to edit any page (try to move an icon for ex) there is going to be a distortion at the background like color changing or instead of the background,
there will be a stretched icon of an application.
I have attached some screenshots for you to see.
Also a temporary solution to this problem that i found is to restart TouchWiz with an application i found on Play Store.
The name of the app is TouchWiz Killer.
Is there a permanent solution to this annoying problem that anyone has found?

Live wallpaper issue

I noticed this same issue with my Note 5.
And it's only this one wallpaper. But a paid one and one of my favorites.
The wallpaper works fine. Then comes root and modified stock rom and every time I open it I immediately get the crashed message for that wallpaper.
Any ideas on where I could start digging to figure out what's going on?
Any similar experience recent or in the past?

Help! Wallpaper keeps changing on its own (European A2017G on B03)

Hi, no matter what wallpaper I set through settings or the gallery, after some time it changes to some kind of a live wallpaper which keeps changing periodically. I didn't find any setting related to this, it just won't keep my wallpaper.
Lockscreen has no such issues.
Did I miss some settings? I appreciate any help.
hi,have you try this way. Settings- Themes& wallpapers-Wallpaters-Static Wallpaper- select one wallpater-Apply
Thank you for the suggestion but I found out that Arrow Launcher has Bing live wallpaper set as default and I needed to change that.
I have somewhat similar problem, whatever wallpaper I choose it keeps changing back to default.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
While I did resolve my problem, I did not experience the behavior you are describing. In my case, Arrow Launcher was the culprit (by default it sets bing live wallpaper). It could be something similar on your end.

Wrongly removed lockscreen clock - How to get it back?

Hello everyone,
This time I have gone a bit too far and uninstalled more system packages including nearly all of Samsung stuff. The phone works perfectly but only one thing is missing. Lockscreen clock. Unfortunately, I do not know which package shows that widget.
Can anyone give me a hand?
Try installing Always On Display as a system app, I recommend this particular version as it is the most recent one available for the S8: 3.2.80.4.
Again, I'd install it as a system app as you may experience unexpected behaviour otherwise.
