The clock on my lock screen keeps changing size, when I restart my phone it's always really big and then keeps changing sizes. I'm on official Nougat.

Many times when you touch the screen on the home screen the clock gets pressed and the app pops up. I know that on a software I used there was a tweak to lock the clock on the today screen, but it was part of a larger software with options that don't apply. Does anyone know the registry tweak to block the clock app from launching on the today screen?
Hey All,
I'm working with a Notion Ink adam, but based off a bunch of the Nook Color/Gtab/Galaxy Tab threads, this isn't isolated to the adam.
I'm running into an issue where the following occurs: from stock, I can set 1024x600 wallpapers in gallery/desktop/etc, and they'll be full screen, centered, and uncropped. As soon as I install any custom launcher(so far, I've tested with the new VTL.launcher, Launcher Pro, ADW, zeam) the wallpaper gets stretched as if it was going to scroll, but scrolling all the way to the side still doesn't display the whole wallpaper.
In fact, from that point on, I can no longer set a 1024x600 wallpaper as a desktop, as it thinks it's not the right height/width and stretches then crops it. If I try to manually crop in Gallery, it only allows me to expand it to a 4:3 square, instead of the full screen.
This does not resolve itself after uninstalling the other launchers, and in fact, the only way I've found to permanently fix it, is to factory reset.
I've been doing some tinkering, and discovered that under /data/system, there is a "Wallpaper_info.xml" which lists the wallpaper height/width. Since installing a launcher, it lists the height as 1024, and the width as 1200, which isn't really correct at all. However, if I manually change that to 600 and 1024, respectively, then hard reboot, the wallpaper I've set will display correctly until I go off of the homescreen and come back, or lock the device.
This makes me think something within the launchers are changing what android believes the resolution and/or wallpaper size should be. However, I have no idea what service I could clear the data on to make this revert without a factory reset.
Any insight on what would cause this type of change is greatly appreciated.
As a few extra asides: I've tried Wallpaper Wizardrii and Wallpaper set and save, set and save still shows a cropped image, Wizardrii makes black bars appear above the top and bottom.
Thanks,

I've ran into the same exact problem after installing, then uninstalling, MIUI Launcher. Anyone know a fix?
I am trying to get the clock and the weather widget to show up on my lock screen - my old NOTE2 had the option in Lockscreen settings to show weather on Lock screen but I cant find that option here.
I was able to add a weather widget to the lock screen - but when you first open the lock screen all you see is the clock - then, if I swipe down on the screen - it opens the weather ap - see my screen shots attached.
The first is what you see when you first get to the lock screen
the second is what you see when youi swipe down.
I am wanting to get the look of the second screen shot - when you first see the lock screen -
any suggestions?

I couldn't find a way to do it either, so I downloaded this little app and it's kind of cool.

You can add several other notifications to it as well.
I use beautiful widgets on all my devices, lets me set weather, clock, battery, and all completely customizable. One of the few apps I ever paid for.

Can you set it up with pattern security? The images on the Play store shows that you can but I haven't been able to do so. Every time I set up the widget and set the pattern security, it reverts back to the standard default clock.
Well I did once, but it has now reverted to the regular lock screen. Looks like maybe a bug - The other notification extensions I picked are taking up the whole screen. When I first installed it moved everything small up next to the clock when I had the pattern visible on the lock screen. I'm not sure how to make the widget smaller as of yet. Other users have reported the same problem, so maybe there will be a future fix.
I got the 4.4 update via my S4, and now whenever i set a live wallpaper for both home and lock screen, the lock screen becomes the same it was on the s2 with the same lock sound and the lock icon thing when you swipe the screen (no light effect or sound). Is this a bug or is it the way it's supposed to be for kitkat?
It only happens when i set a live wallpaper for the lock screen, when i set a normal wallpaper the lock screen remains the way it should be with the light effect and sound.
Could i please get some help, some sort of answer please, i'd really appreciate it :crying:

I have I9500 n I get the light/ripple effect for lockscreen with sound. I guess they ll include it in stable updates. Try using the one of the default wallpapers and then the ripple/light effects. It might work. All the best.
So, my S7 edge yesterday, had a reboot when i put him on charge.
When it started, it had changed the lock image and my shortcuts have missing from lock screen.. I have the option turned on settings but no icons on the lock screen. Has this happen to anyone ?
