Lockscreen Wallpapers - Bugged? - Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I am using the latest official global oreo fw, unfortunately apps like Google's Wallpaper app, Wonderwall and such cannot change the lockscreen wallpaper. Is that fixed in the pie beta by any chance or is there any known fix? Really annoys me to use the poor xiaomi app as it produces weird, ugly looking crops with custom wallpapers.
Thanks a lot,
Daniel

Miui Launcher on Droid 3

For those of you who are Miui fans out there, I ran into a Miui Launcher. And it's as close as it gets to the official ROM's launcher. From no app drawer, to the dock, to the widgets, to the themes. After editing my build.prop and changing my VMheap and Maxperseconds or whatever that one is, I went back to the Stock Launcher and there were no redraws or any problems. I love Miui icons so i installed custom shorcuts from the market to add my Miui icons to my frequently used apps on my stock launcher. I love the blur effect when switching from screen to screen. Then Unfortunately, i ran into a problem. I found this Miui Launcher and man it is pretty amazing! Now i don't know which launcher to use so ima sleep on it and hopefully I can make a decision based on your feedback but check it out. I left the link to share with ya'll!

Miui seems cool to me, and that theme looks good, but I personally have no problem with the stock one (yet, As I'm still new to android devices). Only thing I'm trying to change is the notification bar.
How do I remove this launcher and revert back to stock?
Just go to settings applications then manage, and uninstall the miui launcher

I tried this out the other day, a few apps are in chinese as well as the clock widget.

Wallpaper Carousal Not Working in MiUi8

Hello,
The wallpaper carousal in my unrooted Mi5 doesn't seem to work. The lock screen shows only the default, offline 8 wallpapers.
I also tried clearing the cache and data of the carousal app (also tried a restart after that). Any clue about how to fix this?

It's the default launcher provided by MiUi.
Btw, it's a bit stupid that I am answering my own question, but the issue was resolved when I got an OTA two days ago The version I have now is 8.0.5.0

Good to know it works now
I was asking about the launcher because when you have custom launcher set as default, Wallpaper Carousel cannot access wallpapers and symptoms are just how you described. Xiaomi says that this is "known error"
Below feedback i wrote to Xiaomi
Changing wallpaper on Lockscreen is unique feature of Xiaomi but it's not working. I google lot on solution, still it is not working. Many users reported that the wallpaper is not changing on lockscreen. I tried both on default launcher and lightning launcher still not working. Did many troubleshooting like installed old versions, Autostart, no restrictions in battery saving, allowing all permissions etc still not working. My device is Redmi Note 4 rooted with Android 7.0 with MiUi 9.6.3.0.

Hi Guys! This is a Magisk module I made to replace the stock Quickstep Launcher in our device with Pixel Launcher.
The module includes:

- Device Personalization Services (for App Suggestions and "Select" Overview Action)
- Pixel Theme (Pixel Blue Accent Color instead of Teal, Amoled Black Dark Mode instead of Dark Gray, Rounded UI Corners)
- Extra Pixel Exclusive Accent Colors, Icon Packs & Fonts
- Removed Wi-Fi Generation Numbers from Wi-Fi Icon
Hope you guys enjoy!

Don't mind at all.

Truth be told, i initially created this theme for personal use only. I really love the stock android experience but that teal accent color, ugly dark mode and squarish ui make the device look really dated (in my personal opinion). So the idea of this theme was to add some polishes to our device while still keeping that lightweight android experience. I really like those few touches nokia adds to their phones and i feel like that's what an AOSP build should look like nowadays. I only added the nokia launcher becauce xiaomi didnt gave us a proper fully functional android 11 launcher3. So i won't be making other themes.

When i push the square in navigation bar, with google pixel launcher i don't see anything. With quickstep work normally. It's a shame because the search app drawer bar is cool. But not a big problem. I use the pixel theme, not nokia. Tnx for this mod. Is lite and essential

There may also be some interference with trebuchet launcher. Which los rom are you using?
I solved! I was more simply that i thinked... I have disabled yrebuchet, and cleared data of trebuchet and pixel! Now it's perfect. I'm very happy
Edit:a little issue. With dark theme enable, with the black search bar, the font color remain setted to black. Is better set to with. Cheers

Yeah i noticed it as well. Try force stopping, restarting or clearing the data of pixel launcher.
