Hi! after every reboot no matter what size of wallpaper i put it got distorted (like zoom in). I add 2 screenshots for you to see... what's wrong?
P.S everything is stock
Am I the only one facing this issue? =\ After upgrading to KitKat i did factory reset to start from scratch... I'm really going crazy to figure out what triggered that...
Sometime i have only half of wallpaper.Just put the wallpaper again

So after rooting I thought I would try an app that I used on the EVO and has been used on the Captivate called LCD DENSITY CHANGER 3.0. It worked great on those two devices
MUST have ROOT to use! And when you use it with EPIC 4G it will restart your screen to a lovely black screen. Buttons light up and Notification Lights up as well but the screen will stay black. Until Full ROOT with Custom Recovery stay away until fixed
You couldn't factory reset it with recovery?
There's a fix for that in the thread...

Did you guys just try getting rid of the app using adb? Sounds like something worth trying before returning the device!

I have tried that as well before I ended up returning the Phone for an exchange. I have used the APP on a lot of different phones too first time this has happened too. But now I know, shame though since that app rocks
Man, I feel sorry that my app give you all this trouble! Really. It's a hell of a job to make this app safe for every device, rom and root configuration...
Please can you give more insight in what went wrong? Did the boot manager not caused a restart with the old density setting when you got the black screen??
Did you rebooted it yourself directly after getting the black screen or did you wait for a while? (The device will reboot itself after 30 sec. when the user can't give any input )
And what is that about the partial root?
I hope you can give some feedback, because really.... I want this thing to be safe. Thanks.
After setting it to 200 it restarted automatically. When it tried to reboot it loads a black screen with sound bottom buttons light up but the device doesn't respond. I did let it sit the first time because I have tried this on the evo so I knew it would try to auto load the default 240. But nothing. Had to pull battery. After 20 - 30 min later I entered recovery and wiped data and cache but same thing happened when it booted back up.
I really do hope this gets fixed soon. It was one of those apps that I paid for that was worth it!

Thanks for your observations. I have contacted LeshaK and he gave me some great advices. I will look into this, because I really don't want to get users into trouble by trying the app out. On the other side, maybe Epic users have to wait for a full root.
I guess you don't want to be a beta tester Anyone else? Please PM me or leave a message in this thread.
Use odin to do a full reset.

wicked! wish this was out yest morning but considering the phone just came out great progress
The easiest way to fix this was to simply pull the build.prop file from /system
Open the file in notepad and find the pixel density value.
Set it to 240 or 234 if you want to be accurate. It looks best at 240 though.
this app just messed up my phone....i installed in GT-I5801 and still there is no solution i can't even exchange like he did....the same problem black screen wit no effects...what is the easiest way 2 get rid of this bootin' thing.. and it not even changing to normal...and no carrier signals...help me out!!
boot into recovery and install an old nandroid backup

How hard is it to change the number in the build.prop file?
Lol don't odin just reflash your rom or yes pull buildb and manuall fix it
It works perfect on my Epic with the Froyo rom. It never worked with any 2.1 rom!

So, I restarted my tablet today. When it started back up, all of my widgets were gone. I started to pop them back in and the picture frame one is now 2x2. It was 3x3 before I restarted.
WHAT?!?!?!?!?!!

I've had exactly the same problem. Some times when I switch the machine on (not from a cold boot) the picture frame is 2x2 other times it is 3x3. Gets me to thinking that this info must be held in the coding somewhere and, if that is the case, how easy would it be to chage it.

It's such an odd error if you think about it. No rush though, as the 3.1 update will bring resizeability.

Hi,
I saw the same issue. Not only picture frame was affected, but also digital clock was 3x1 instead of 5x2. In my case it helped to rotate the A500 to portrait mode for moment. After that widgets had expected size again - also in landscape mode.
Can someone else verify...?

Thanks for your response.
My A500 was rooted and I had installed CWM recovery before I upgraded to the unofficial 3.1. I initially had problems with losing Gmail, etc. but after a wipe and re-install everything was fine.
I was only some time later that I noticed that the picture frame widget sometimes had a 2x2 resolution and other times had a 3x3 resolution. Not really a problem - I am only curious why it would do this and if it is possible to change this.
I have sized widgets such as e-mail and gmail widgets, so I know how that works. This resizing does not work on all widgets as far as I am aware.
It would be nice if some of the clever guys on this forum could shed some light on this.

Hi,
Looking into catalogues shown in the Gallery application I noticed a lot of black thumbnails which cannot be displayed when clicked on.
I cleared Gallery data via settings but it did not help.
It is possible to mark the black thumbnails and delete them but somehow it does not seem right.
Can somebody help?
Kind regards

I faced such problem before. I just unmount the storage and insert back. It will initialize and Everything will be normal again.

hahaha mine used to do that too... drove me nutz....
But that was on Honeycomb...
Now that Im on ICS.. gallery is normal...
no more ghost black frames... which by the way had the same file names as the pictures..
One for each legit photo had a black double...
deleted all the black doubles.... 3-4 days later.. they returned..
Are you on an ICS rom??

mind that black frames appear even when you got ONLY video files inside folder that are not supported by the stock samsung player so the preview doesn't show up neither are going to be played!
Sorry for delayed reply.
I still use Honeycomb as there is no official Ivan release in Sweden yet

Just got my second nexus 4. Rooted then installed cm10. I keep having a problem where one of my home screens keeps losing all icons. It happens to different home screens pages. Did I receive a bad phone? This never happened on my old nexus 4. The only solution is to force stop trebuchet, then my icons come back. Really annoying.
Thanks

Lol no. It's something to do with the software. Try another full wipe. Do not restore any apps or anything yet, and see if the problem still persists.

I found the problem. The issue only occurs in nightlies. It happens when you switch from app drawer to home screen really fast. I replicated the bug multiple times by repeatedly switching from drawer to home screen. The problem is gone on rc5.

Goodjob!
Yeah.. As mentioned..
Stock.. Non root... Nova Launcher Prime..
Tried changing the icons..
And this happened.. For the first time..
Has anyone had it before.. Should I be worried? And any idea what caused it?
I dont know but since the notification bar and buttons on the bottom aren't going crazy I think its a software error and nothing to do with your phone.
Maybe try another launcher?

That happened to me for the first time yesterday when opening youtube. I don't see any reason for concern though. (Rooted with custom rom)
Happened to me at the boot screen when going into twrp today but that was the only time so far
