I forgot to lock my phone before putting it in my pocket, and now I have one of the blank "Contact Favourite Silhouette" pictures as my background instead of the all black background of the normal HTC TF3D...
I have no idea how to change it back to normal. Can someone help. (I think I have tried all the obvious places.)
Thanks in Advance.
if you go back to settings-background it asks if you want to use the default background then you choose yes and its back to normal
Under settings, I have 3 tabs. Personal, System and Connections. I do not see background under any of them? Am I missing something?
you have to go to settings through tf3d menu, the logo next to the weather, there you will see settings, and background
Although I feel stupid for missing that I cant thank you enough. You have no idea how annoying it was looking at that horrible background. Thankd again !!
ahah no problem

Well I managed to do something and my background image got locked -- I can only change it by going to settings -> Today -> "Use image" -- but this forces 50%+ transparency on the image...
If I try to do it as I used to, Pictures & Videos -> Click image -> Set as today background (0%)... the background image does not change... If i have the waterfall background and i switch to pond at 0% transparency, my phone stays on waterfall with the default ~65% transparency....
I've been looking everywhere for an answer -- what causes this, how can it be fixed, or perhaps even where's the registry key to force 0% transparency from Today screen images?
Thanks for the help
Have you tried unticking the "use this image as background" option and then selecting another image in pictures and videos?
yeah, it goes back to the default theme background and the new image does NOT become the background -- not even with the crappy transparency settings...
I've tried all 4 themes that come with the phone, it all results in the exact same situation... I can change it if i accept the crappy transparency from the today menu.. but cant do it from other programs
the same thing happened to me with my wizard. I fixed it by going to pictures and videos and then selecting the image i wanted all the way down to 0%. Instead of pressing the OK button at the top corner, press it on your keyboard.
Let me know if that works.

Good catch, yup.. problem solved..
Perhaps it has to do with the "tap" vs. "Tap and hold" the X button setting... I did change that a bit before i started noticing the issue
In advance I want to say thank you for taking the time to read this. I've searched all over the internet and cannot find anything about this anywhere.
Tonight my HTC One randomly restarted and when it came back up, all my sense settings were restored to default, minus features. I.e. my quick settings menu was restored to default quick settings links and the order changed. The font size throughout the phone was restored to medium. The time changed back to 12 hour mode from 24 hour mode. My ringtone/notification/alarm tons were restored to default. But most frustratingly, the lock screen is messed up. I can only swipe up to unlock, instead of swiping left and right to get to blinkfeed, etc. And all of my shortcuts are inaccessible from the lock screen--as in, my messages, phone, email, etc--I can no longer swipe up on the icons (because they are not there) to immediately open those apps. I have to swipe up to unlock then tap the icon. Also, I no longer have message or missed call previews on the lock screen. It shows the time and weather but nothing else, even when I have notifications. Note that none of my other settings were restored to default--my shortcuts on the different panels are the same, my background the same, no apps were lost, etc.
Please, please help me.
Edit: my power saver mode icon is no longer available in the drop-down menu when it's enabled (i.e. there's the notification for it with the check box on the right that allows me to turn it off and that notification is no longer there).
and your rom is...?

Stock. Does no one have any info on this error?
Did you try factory reset? If you didn't, try it, but backup your phone first
Hey,
not sure if this is a Pie problem or not, it could be by design, I'm trying to change the lock screen wallpaper, sounds easy enough, I've changed it but after a few screen switch on's, the background just stays black, everything else shows, clock, notifications, just the background goes.
I'm not sure if its designed to do this as I'm going from AOD to the lock screen, I've tried various photos, different ways of changing it, different launchers, nothing will enable it to hold the background.
Any advice is greatfully appreciated...
Received my S21U yesterday and noticed a weird thing happens when vivid mode is on.
Basically, the colours change when apps take up the whole screen. It's mostly a slight change but it's really visible on skin tones. On my device when things are full screen, people's faces look pale, yellow and washed out. This disappears immediately if I put the app into pop-up view, splitscreen, or if I open another pop up app over the top. It also disappears if I swipe up to go to recent apps and the current app minimizes. It's annoying because the skin tones look normal and healthy when not full screen. Then as soon I full screen whatever I'm looking at the colours change straight away before my eyes and I see the washed out yellow skin tones appear. This doesn't happen on natural mode or when eye comfort is on, it only happens with vivid.
The same issue happened on my Note 20 Ultra, but the yellowed/washed out colours were SO much worse that I ended up returning it. Oddly enough it doesn't happen on my Tab S7+.
If you have a spare minute and you'd like to see if this happens on your device, open this random image of the legend William Hung full screen with vivid mode on. Then try swiping up to see recent apps and then tapping the app to full screen the image again. If the same thing happens on your device you should notice the skin tones change. He should look normal when the window isn't full but on full screen he looks really yellow and ill. The same should happen if you open it in split screen or popup view or open another app in pop up view over the top.
Anyone else noticed this or know why it happens? It actually kind of annoys me as the skin tones look ugly and at this price point I expect everything to be perfect.
Cheers!
Cheers!
Just checked, and I'm unable to duplicate that problem with the picture you shared. No change it skin tone at all.
NVM, I see what you mean. I see a darker shade in the recent apps menu when I swipe up, and then when I go back to the original image, it gets lighter. NOt a big deal to me. Why does it bother you?
so Im baffled and I'm wondering if I am missing a setting somewhere. First of all, I am not using dark mode. the battery setting are all set properly as well as notification and "start" auto start etc. this is what I am noticing.
I am using Nova as well..oh.smart notifications OFF. I have de-bloated the phone no Vivo.pem
First of all Whatsapp: my lock screen does not show whatsapp messages most of the times, but it does show the min drop down notifications. I noticed the message comes on the lockscreen and disappears v quickly. I included slowmo of the notification popping and clearing itself out. I also noticed if your phone screen is turned off for while and you open it the lock screen shows most messages including whatsapp. Sometimes the whatsapp notification holds on the lockscreen(I included 3 examples).
Another issue is, coming from Samsung and one plus, all the items on the drop down notifications should be the same on the lockscreen. They are not. I seem to get gmail, whatsapp(sometimes) sms etc..the rest are not showing. is that normal behaviour?. again smart notifications is turned to off. logically any app that I set to show on lockscreen should show on lockscreen? I included 2 photos of this.
I know everyone is having issues with notifications, Im just trying to find the pattern for this because to me it looks inconsistent. either it should show or never show.my audiobook shows on both 100% of the the time. so really confusing for me.could be something stupid that im missing, maybe theres a setting for a timer for a certain notification to show on a lockscreen? I dont know.I think in 10 days Ive learned the settings menu inside out.
Fingers crossed that wasnt a stupid post...
Run the new debloat script I fixed. You probably botched something up with the old script, or removed com.vivo.pem and borked your whole phone.
Ok 2.6? I thought we need to remove com.viov.pem..
Thanks ..Will try again

Only according to like one or two guys who in my experience don't seem to know what they are talking about because the phone performs fine with this package installed.
How did it go?
