Pixel 2 live wallpapers automatically reset to default wallpaper when locked - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

hi guys i tryed installing the pixel 2 live wallpapers from this link but it just keeps resetting to the default system wallpaper if the phone remains locked for a while. the pixel wallpaper 2017 apk doesnt appear in the power management app so u cant disable the power saving rules.
Did you guys found any workaround?

I had the same experience.
Please let us know if you have any tip.
Cheers!

It's because of screen lock clearing, a battery saving feature that ZTE put in their software. Unfortunately there is no way to disable this "feature" for apps that don't show up in your drawer. Installing a custom ROM is the only solution AFAIK (which I just did this week, the unofficial RR rom works like a charm with these wallpapers, and in general).

Mine is working without any issue. Phone is completely stock

[Q] Widgets and live wallpapers closing

Hi guys,
I'm having the following issues: every time my screen locks for a certain amount of time, any live wallpaper close and it goes back to default wallpaper. Also, when I give enough time with my screen locked, all my widgets get closed and I have to add them all over again.
Any idea whats going on?
My x8 is rooted and have xrecovery (root explorer and those things needed to install xrevovery) but nothing else (not using any mod or ROM)
Thank in advance.

Cm12s ISSUES

I have noticed minor issues cyanogen 12s issues on the ONEPLUS ONE. Anyone with issue can can report them here. Hopefully everyone here has a work around or modification to fix the issue.
BT headset, have 3 different one. Pressing the button will kill the call while on GV. IDEAS?
I'm occasionally seeing the lockscreen flash up when turning the screen off.
Also, if there's a way to disable the lockscreen transparency I'd be interested to hear it - it looks rubbish.
Seeing the old issue of the notification drawer appearing in/after calls, too. Hadn't had this for a while on latest nightlies

Go to Google play services in privacy guard and deny it the permission to keep awake. Then reboot.

I don't want to reset my phone lol. Everything is working fine other than that.
color os camera problem
It worked perfectly on kitkat .
After updating to lollipop (official update) cm 12s , it seems to show some problem.
I can't see any live preview of the effects. It just shows the normal camera without any effects. But after I click, the picture comes with effect. So its just a problem about the live preview of the effects. Has anyone else experienced this problem ? Plz help me.
The now infamous two halves in pictures with flash are still there. I wonder if the community could extract the camera driver from oxygenOS kernel sources (when OP will finally release them) and use them, since it doesn't happen on that ROM.

I prefer using this method. Much cleaner IMO.

I think the lockscreen flashing after the screen turns off is a lollipop thing. I noticed it when I had a nexus 5 and upgraded to 5.0. I think I noticed it out of the corner of my eye so to speak, after I had set my phone down and the screen timed out, thought it flickered/flashed but that's just the screen off animation now.
Still playing around with all the settings to see what's new (and removed) and noticed:
No longer have the ability to configure the auto-brightness settings which I actually quite liked in 11S if for no other reason that I could set the auto brightness for low light down to 0% (instead of the, what... 5% normal setting?).
Screen Color calibration wouldn't work and crashed the settings app (screen went black and I couldn't get back into settings). A reboot seems to have fixed it.
The settings app may just be buggy as it crashed again when trying to access Developer Options (screen went black and required a reboot).
EDIT: Couldn't sign into my Cyanogen account but that could be a problem on Cyanogen's side as it didn't recognize my account.
Still seems like there are a lot of new things to try and there are more options than Oxygen OS.
Switching profiles:
from owner to guest: Cyanogenmod-log crashes
from guest to owner: code to unlock phone isn't shown and no matter what you type, it always incorrect. Fixed by rebooting

no problem like yours.
but there's no led notification (when lock and screen on) only ambient flashed-up display.
i do agree that autobrightness is not working like in cm11s.
But, i do have those problems after flashing from stock cm11s 05Q and via bootloader with fastboot image from the cyngn.
And cm12s from cm11s is have this kind of lagging typing/touching to be compared if you were flashing from cm12/cm12.1, strange indeed.
I'm back on nightlies. CM12S ain't for me, thought OxygenOS was better
Lags on interactive governor
Hi guys, did you notice any lags on interactive governor in games ? It lags on cm11s too, I thought that they will fix it in today released cm12s. It didn't happen before brick of my phone, since unbrick and flash of cm11s, games are lagging so much on interactive governor. Do you know how to fix that without any change of governor, hotplug or profiles ? Thanks a lot.
Com. Google. Gapps. Continual fc so rapid about impossible use phone.. Back to O2 for now which is very smooth
All of you with issues, did you dirty flash or wipe first? it DOES matter...

Status bar issue: lost its transparency

Greetings!
Haven't come across anything like this elsewhere. Been scouring the interwebs for solutions but to no avail. So, I decided to make another XDA account since there's always an error here in XDA when requesting for a new password, thus can't log back into my old XDA account.
So, anyone knows a solution to my problem? Thanks in advance!
NB: can't post outside links unless already got 10+ post here in XDA so no screenshots uploaded
Need more information. I've not got my S7 Edge yet but I used one in the shop and the status bar is 100% transparent, so if your new device has lost it's transparency, you must have installed something or done something to it. Have you installed a new launcher that doesn't support transparent status bar for example?
Just the Liquid Cloud live wallpaper which I have been using with my S6E+ flawlessly
That will be it then. It's probably not compatible with Marshmallow or the version of TW the S7 comes with. If you remove it or change to another wallpaper the status bar will almost certainly return to full transparency. Then see if there is an update to the wallpaper.
For the benefit of the doubt, reverted to its static wallpaper but still no changes
Reboot. Then, if no change, uninstall the live wallpaper and reboot again.
Haist! Did everything you mentioned. Still there! This is driving me nuts!
Appreciate the quick response. Think I will just commission my S6E+ back until someone got this sorted out!
Maybe, wipe cache partition? Just like what I did back then when my Samsung Pay was acting up weird which solved it
Clear launcher data and, if that doesn't work, remove the apps you have installed one by one. It's bound to be one of them.
If all else fails I presume you haven't done much on the phone yet so a factory reset is always an option. Power off, then power on with volume up and the power button to go into stock recovery. Select factory reset. You will lose everything on the phone though. I also suggest you remove any memory card just in case.
Just use nova launcher

Could it have something to do with the font change ?? you are clearly not using the default one
Clean cache and force close system ui, reboot and it should fix it!
The Status Bar turns gray when you turn on Power Saving. Turn off Power Saving and it should return to being transparent.
Power Saving ON:
Power Saving OFF:
Also, don't force close any of your UI or system elements unless you plan on rebooting. Your device will be unstable until you reboot.
Well, you've just saved me a lot of trouble! Thanks! Didn't know S7E's TW would be giving me such pain. Didn't encounter such thing on my S6E+.
Thank you for all your thoughts, guys!
Glad it's all sorted out now, bruh!
That gray status bar was really starting to p*ss me off! I used to keep my phone on power save mode all the time with Lollipop and never had that issue. Wtf Marshmallow?!

Do you have power saving turned on? I noticed on mine when its enabled the status bar looses its transparency and goes grey.
Turn off the Power saving Mode and It Goes
Xposed module Flat Style Colored bars
Xposed module, "Flat Style Colored bars" solves the problem while power saving is on.
I tried it on my note 4 and it worked. I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work on other phones...

Screen auto rotation

Is there a way this crap ever works? Sometimes auto rotation works but more often not. And HOW can i disable the home screen rotation?
I don't know what all you guys do with custom mods like this. YES, it's fast and it needs less memory. And then? Soooo much silly functions. One would think the developers hate android. Jeez.
And when I have a simple question, nobody have an answer. That's creepy. Autorotation is a PITA. Same as the status bar in fullscreen.
If someone would ask me, Hey, should I install a custom rom? I would say: HELL NO!!!! Don't be crazy.
I really wonder what you guys all do with your phones and custom roms. Watching animated emojis? That's all?

Nothing wrong with my auto rotation on lineageos 15.1
Also my home launcher doesn't auto rotate - I use evie launcher
Check your launcher settings or replace it with one that meets your requirements
Plus you have posted in a dev section so I'll ask the mod to move it to the appropriate place

Hello
I just tried evie launcher. Same behavior.
The other thing; in full screen I'm not able to pull down the status bar. I checked settings and red online for hours. No way.
Maybe you have some suggestions?

I just enabled expanded desktop in lineageos os 15.1 to hide status bar & I have no issues pulling it down
I have a galaxy s5 900f
Make sure the rom you are using is compatible with your variant
I'm using
official lineage os 15.1
Mind the gapps
Magisk
Evie launcher
You may want to flash stock rom via odin & do any ota updates then try custom rom again
Thank you. I also use the g900f. When I start the device in safe mode, it works as it should. Then I disabled each app which imo remotely might cause the issue. But I want successful to isolate it.
I'm not sure at this point if it must be a app which interfere with this or if it may be also some settings which are not executed in safe mode.
I also tried apps which should allow to access the status bar. But even then, it doesn't work.

The only type of app I can think of that would stop you pulling down the status bar is one that has the permission to draw over other apps & is constantly running in the background
Best thing to do is to flash stock rom via odin and start again

Theme resets to default automatically on global android 10/joyui 11

Recently got the OTA update to upgrade from android 9 to 10.
I was glad to notice that it comes with miui theme manager and decided to change the default theme to available ones in theme market.
However, no matter what theme I select and apply, it automatically resets to default theme, wallpaper and lock-screen.
I did a factory reset, changed region from India to taiwan, us, uk, etc but they did not fix the issue.
Did anyone get this issue? Found any workaround?

I have noticed the same, I saw in another forum that removing the optimizations miui is fixed but what has worked best for me is to leave the themes in dark mode, if you change it to light mode it is when the theme is removed the most

I tried all these. Turned off miui optimization in developer settings. Turned on Dark mode all the time. Did not even changed the theme.
But just tried to set an wallpaper from settings -> wallpaper -> Themes -> Wallpapers. Selected wallpaper remains good for some random time and then all back to default stock green wallpaper.
I did face the same issue

No problem. I flashed Android 9 a day ago and I'm very much happy with older Android than bugged miui11.
I have discovered when you select a theme, don't should change anything, then the theme will not restart and wallpaper keep, the bad thing is you can't put other wallpaper or font :/
When changing a theme are you able to get rid of the green accents? I'm not a fan of green and I'm curious if this is possible on this phone.
Many thanks!

Yes, there are some themes that change those tones, you just have to look for one and try it or you can install one shade, it is in the play store
Is there anyway you can attach a screenshot of how it changes it? I'm just really curious she many thanks for the response!
