Does anyone experience a crash when trying to add the alarm widget to the stock launcher? On my phone, the launcher won't run with the widget at all, so if you drag it to the home screen, and place it down, you'll be stuck in a loop of it crashing and sending you back to where you last were.
Had to resolve the issue by clearing the launcher app memory.
Running HK Snapdragon set, had the issue on both the September and October security patch firmware.
If you experience this or not do let me know!
And a potential solution would be nice but don't think there will be one..

Hi guys
Anyone else noticed this on their S2...?
When i set the digital clock with the date as a main widget on home screen, sometimes, if i reboot or load a video, play it and come back to the home screen, the widget shrinks in size slighty and removes the date.
This is the same when i use a beautiful widget clock/weather widget as well...
Not sure what i am doing wrong...
Any help guys?
Cheers
Merb
Yeah i have noticed this too. Don't know what causes this. What firmware are you on?
Does it happen with the stock time widget as well?
I have the Go Launcher Weather widget and it does this shrinking job sometimes after I exit apps. I thought it was a problem with the widget!
I'm on stock O2 ROM version: KE2
Hi, I changed my phone from Note2(N7105) to Note3(N9005).
I always use SwitchPro and Zooper Widget.
But this two widgets are freezing just within 5~10mins after restarting.
Widgets are stop so does not working.
It happenes both of Original Firmware(XXUBMJ1, CSCLBBMI3) and after de la Vega root.
Is there anybody happening same issue like me?
And is there any solution for this problem?
Thanks before!
I had the same issue
I am facing the same issue. I have the middle east firmware and my wedgets are freezed untill I restart my note 3. Can any body help? Knowing that I had formated the device and work again from begining. And still the issue is the same.

same here
it's not the widgets that hanged, it's touchwiz (Or maybe some widgets are hanging touchwiz)
Go to application manager and force stop touchwiz, this will restart the launcher and the widgets will work again

I've been using same widgets for 2 years now. Never ever had this issue on Note 2 with stock roms.
Ever since I bought Note 3 this issue affects every single launcher that I've tried so far. If the widgets somehow affected launcher somehow, it would affect it on Note 2.
My suspicion is it due to some kind of security and/or memory manager that kills off widgets after a certain time or amount of ram used. Perhaps that piece of software is exactly the same as on note 2, but not aware of the fact that this phone has more memory and if used 1.9gb it's not 95% of total ram.
The only solution I've found for this is to install Auto Memory Manager and under running processes list, select Touchwiz Home and select Keep Alive Always.
I have latest 20G update on my D802. I'm using stock LG launcher. Lately, I get quick launcher redraw, afte unlocking my phone. Weather widget and couple of icons redraw with a "blink". Is there any solution to this? Anybody else expiriencing the same issue?
If the entire launcher is redrawing then it might be getting kicked out of memory. Some 3rd party launchers have an option to remain in memory, can you try one of those and tell me whether those launchers also redraw.

I tried Nova launcher and it doesn't redraw, but transition animations are choppy (micro stutters, but they are smooth when using live wallpaper), so I decided to stick with stock launcher. As I said, it's not that entire launcher is redrawing, but two folders and 4x1 default weather widget.
I have never used stock kk, so it could be an issue with the update. Try clearing cache/data for the LG apps via settings, Apps->All.

I had the same problem on 20d. Got tired of it and I use apex now. It never redraws and animation is smoother. Free ram is also much more with apex.
Too bad cuz i liked stock lg launcher.

Yesterday, I made a factory data reset, after updating to 20H firmware on my D802. Still, this launcher redraw issue is present and it's really bothering me. If I have to do something on the fly and just after unlocking my phone, this redraw happens and whole interface stutters for second or two.
Same here since 20G... Happy to see that I'm not alone... Again a buggy update...
Having the same issue with 20c, nothing changed after a couple of flashes as well.
Been using the stock launcher for 1 year and it always redraw. Finally installed Nova last week and there is no more launcher redraw issue.
I guess I'm lucky; not a single redraw here, not even that one when switching from portrait to landscape (or vice versa). 20H.
I also had the same problem with stock LG launcher but I`ve read somewhere that the problem is gone when there is no folders on launcher.
I had 3 folders and when I removed them the problem is gone
Is anyone with the problem having folders on homescreen? If you do try to remove them and see what would happen
well, actualy folders and widget are indeed redrawing and I can confirm that I have folders...BUT I had some on previous rom I it worked flawlessly...
I just removed one folder that was on my home screen. Lets see if there will be some redrawing now.
Interesting, never thought about folders and redrawing. Got 3 of them tho. Plus 4 widgets (if we count clock). Still no issues, eh...

Never had any folders - still redraws every once in a while... Have 4 widgets though...
For the lag it seems that it occurs when I press home after switching from a band to another or from an antenna to another
Whell, last night I removed folder from the home screen and I still gor redraws, so it must be bad coding in LG Home launcher.
After KK update I've had launcher redraws even after killing all background apps, so I had them hundreds times every day. After updating to "H" release all redraws gone. Not any single redraw.
It is far better with 20h for sure but still having some lags
I have 20H firmware and redraws all the time. Even after factory reset.
Was there an update or something? Because all of a sudden the widget completely destroys my battery and FPS when scrolling on the Google Now Launcher. I got rid of it and now everything works fine. Im on stock no root and have factory reset like 5 times until i figured out it was the widget.
Edit* To replicate, try using the G Now 4x4 widget using the Gnow Launcher and try scrolling on the launcher.
Yes - I'm having the same sort of problem on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 following an update yesterday (25th Feb). If I have the 4x4 widget installed in Nova Launcher, then it crashes and lags like crazy. If I remove the widget, then it's all fine.
Will just have to hope that Google become aware of the problem, and fix it quickly.
Cheers,
Steve.
Same problems here. Nexus 6P with Nova launcher too. I had to uninstall updates to the Google app, then update to a version from a few days ago (5.9.33.19), and now all is good again (including widget). Hope an update fixes the issues soon.
Im gonna guess that this only effects people who are beta testing the Google app.
Actually I was getting some lag I thought was from Nova Launcher. Also the C-SPAN App was stuttering if it was not in the foreground. I deleted the widget and everything is back to normal.
i think i was getting the same problem too. phone was laggy and also google now was draining my battery big time
Hi, I have a Samsung S10+ running Android 10 and One UI 2.5.
I am constantly getting an issue with Nova Launcher where if i clear my recent apps the screen refreshes and then One UI takes over and it goes to that home screen rather than Nova. If i then press the Home button again it then takes me back to Nova's home screen again and does stay there until i clear my recent apps again.
Nova is definitely set to the default launcher and when this happens i go into the Nova settings and it shows no launcher is set as default, i then set it as default but the same thing keeps happening each time.
I have tried clearing the cache from both Nova and One UI but this didn't fix anything.
Is this a know issue? It has happened for a while but wasn't that annoying but since a recent android update it seems to be happening all the time now.
Does anyone know if i can fix this?
Thanks
James
Did you perhaps got sd card installed? Usually if the app installed on sd card, it will revert back to default launcher whenever you restart.
I have also had this happen to me recently, happens generally when I have recently restarted the phone for a couple of hours and then it won't happen, really odd. It started happening after the November update. And to @Zac3 I don't have a sd card installed.
Same here !!! It bugs even out sometimes, switch automatic to One UI Launcher, and i can not open sometimes my recents Apps, i had cleared so many times data and cache, but nothing seems working.
Also when i got Nova immersive in settings, it shows me the black bar at the top of the screen, that also doesnt seem to work.
