Lock screen bug. - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

So I love ics on the vivid, but there's a few bugs one particularly that bothers me quite a bit. Has anyone else been able to set a custom wallpaper as your lock screen that's different from your home screen wall paper?
It has the option of letting me choose one but it never sticks it just displays my home screen wallpaper.
Also, is the music app supposed to be buggy? When in all songs mode I try and scroll with the tab alphabetically and it just shows a "#" all the way and takes me back to the top.

I have the same lock screen problem. I can't remember if I posted about it on this site or another, but it's definitely a bug. I e-mailed HTC about it, and he had me do a couple things but nothing worked. Last resort was trying a factory reset, but there was no way I was gonna do that just for a lock screen wallpaper. Plus, it seems like it's a bug with everyone.

yep drives me nuts hopefully they release a maintenance update at the very least .
I'm also having issues with googles play music. After a few times music stops showing up in my library. I have the music on my SD card (16 gb) . Never had the issue on my infuse 4g.
Any other music apps?
I don't like the HTC app its annoying to Me.

I noticed this too and came to the forums for an answer, however I found my own answer.
I believe it's related to the apps with data stored on your SD card. When your phone boots up it takes awhile to check the SD card, by that time it's already checked for the icons for the programs in your games folder.
A quick solution is to hit the personalise button, then the first option marked Scene, change the scene, change it back and you get your icons back without having to drag them back out
Had the same problem, for me closing the folder and reopening it solved the problem, but it is a pain!

You can also reload your launcher as well. If your HTC Incredible S is stock, just kill HTC Sense. It will restart automatically.

GE lock screen widget

This widget keeps appearing on my lock screen, after a reboot it is gone for some time then reappears. I am unable to remove it manually and have tried removing several media related apps to get it to go away. Does anyone recognize the widget and know what offending app is putting it there?

Do you have Koushs AirCast app installed? It looks just like the ChromeCast widget that he used and sometimes caused blank notifications

Actually found out it's 8track radio. Which is odd, I hadn't used the app in almost a month.

Horrible Multitasking?

I posted this in the Sprint HTC One forums and got little in reply, let me know whose you guys think
I don't know if this is an issue with 4.3 specifically because I don't recall if this was happening since I installed the update..but my multitasking with this phone has been horrible lately. I mean no matter what app I switch to it begins to reload, even if it's the last one I used or a light application (ex Google Now to Messaging). I already found it frustrating how upon switching apps with this phone it would show you a frozen image for a brief moment before before allowing you to interact with the actual application, but now apps are actually having to reload. I'm using apex pro and it's also redrawing nearly every time I go back to the homescreen, be it from internet, floorboard, messaging etc. Not sure why it's happening but it started like a week ago and my phone has been feeling pretty ****ty because of it. My GS4 w/touchwiz has less multitasking issues than this phone right now, any ideas on what's going on? Stock unrooted 4.3

Isn't there a specific setting that locks the launcher in memory to prevent the redraws? Are you running a custom rom or you're using apex on a stock rom?

There is that setting, but when it's enabled a notification sits in the dropdown that says to remove apex from the permanent memory, you can't swipe it away either. Really stupid, never seen a phone with that notification before, my s2 with 1gb of ram multitasked amazing. Regardless it's all aspects of multitasking not just launcher redraw, if I switch from messages to setting and then back to massages, it'll have to reload regardless of how light of an app it is.
Stock unrooted 4.3. Rebooting gives me a few days without hindrance but eventually the problem resurfaces, I barely have any apps installed and none of them are out of the ordinary.

Sync gallery to blinkfeed??

Hi. I'm a fan of BlinkFeed....
I'm also a fan of having a home screen page with the large gallery widget.
I know on the BlinkFeed that it has gallery as a highlight option, but for some reason it fails to display gallery images. If I click on the gallery button via BlinkFeed, it says 'no content pull down to refresh'
I'd like it to mix gallery images with everything else that's subscribed to, but gallery is the only one that fails to display.
Any help?

I'm having the same issue, didn't notice it before. i do remember that few pics from my gallery used to appear on my blinkfeed
do you have the data / wifi on ? what happen after you refresh???
It's never worked, the phone is new. I downloaded the tips&help on BlinkFeed, it definetly shows gallery, at first I though I'd have to use picasa.
I pull down to refresh but no images appear. I'll try some settings on gallery

Tried the settings>apps> to any relevant app I could think of to see if I disabled something by mistake. It could be a random named app maybe

Alright, I may have found a connection between BlinkFeed and contact card/my profile on the quick settings tabs. There is a hidden feed on just yourself, like Twitter gallery etc
The thing is, this gallery is also empty

Bit of a solo effort this but I don't mind aha
Ok so this maybe down to settings>accounts&sync>HTC account.
This account has sync turned OFF and is unable to turn on for reasons unknown.

Maybe because I have a Google account sync currently?

I also have google account with sync on bit not the HTC and i remember that it used to works when it was on 4.1.2 but don't remember when it stopped working, after which update i mean.
will search the web more.
sorry for not answering earlier. it's due to different time zones :silly:

one post i found here at XDA that a guy had the same issue but solved it by replacing the gallery app with the 4.1.2 version and it worked for him.
Unfortunately, many people are having this issue without an obvious cause or a solution.
will search more
Is asking HTC a thing that people do around here? Or forbidden haha
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
Got the same issue. I will try to replace the gallery app, but I don't think so. No one seems to care
I like the option because I like Blinkfeed.
