Remove custom wallpaper from options? - Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers

Hello so...
I added a wallpaper to my xperia home wallpaper options from a photo. It's available when I long press the home screen and tap wallpapers. I think I removed the file from which it came. However, it seems permanently situated on the selection list next to the other stock wallpapers, as well as the 'photos', 'xperia loops', etc. I would like to remove the picture.

Issue With Live Wallpaper on Touchwiz

Hello and Happy New Year.
I have recently wanted to try using a live wallpaper on my GT-N7000 running 4.1.2 and Touchwiz (I am on Philz kernel if that matters)...
I note that when I use the settings page for Display | Wallpaper there are 3 choices: Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Both. If I tap Home Screen choice, I get 3 options: Gallery, Live Wallpapers, and (non-live) Wallpapers. I get the same 3 options if I tap the Both screens choice. But when I tap Lock Screen only choice, I do not get the option for Live Wallpapers - only Gallery and (non-live) Wallpapers.
So it seems I can have a live wallpaper on the Home Screen only or on both Home and Lock Screens simultaneously. Of course, what I want is not available here. I want a static wallpaper on my home screens and a live wallpaper on the lock screen. Seems like I can't get there from here.
So is there a way to get the setup I want? Thanks.
a year later, i share your same frustration. i even tried setting the live for "both" and then just setting something else for "home". that caused the lock screen to revert to a default non-live wallpaper.
how dumb.

Wallpaper lag coming from lockscreen?

Hi,
When unlocking the device there's like 1 sec lag between when the icons appear and when the wallpaper appears.
It's nothing major but it happens on every launcher (also on stock), it's just annoying to unlock - see the icons on the home screen - see like a short flash where the wallpaper appears.
Does anyone else xperia the same?

It's apparently not the case for all wallpapers, I'm currently using a LWP called "Neon Microcosm" and there is no loading lag after unlocking

I got same experience on XZ2 but it s not 1 sec for me it looks Fade-in animation for me
it s because of system UI (so different launcher doesn't effect wallpaper loads in system framework)
If you think this is not normal and unusual delay you can Repair firmware by PC companion
:good:

I saw the same behavior with stock wallpapers but changed to an all black wallpaper (habit from amoled screens) and can't see it anymore.

I have a dark wallpaper too, but I'd really not want to use a completely black one
I have the same here. Very annoying.
I'm also getting the same. Not always though. I think it happens when you wake up the phone from deep sleep.
Does the size of wallpaper affect on the delay? I want to use wallpaper from note 4 and it is 2k resolution. will it consume more battery or have delay?
This is also happening on the bigger Z3.
Any fix?

Found a hack. I just put an all black lockscreen wallpaper so when i unlock, the home screen wallpaper fades in like it used to. Looks cool.
Mine doesn't have this problem.
I've got the same little problem on my Z3. What I noticed is not only the wallpaper lags a bit also the three buttons at the bottom (they replace the camera icon on the lockscreen). It happens when I use the Xperia wallpapers. I'm using plain black wallpaper now and everything seems to be ok.
Wallpaper lags because Sony's power management kills wallpaper apps when the screen is off.
Bring up the wallpaper app (mine is 500 firepaper) in running processes then turn off the screen, wait a minute, turn back on and unlock. The wallpaper app will show not active for several seconds after the unlock.
So there is no solution for that?
For me happens only when I replace Xperia themes with an image for lock screen

only solution for now is using sony s own livewallpaper or other lockscreen apps until they fix it

Lockscreen wallpaper keeps reverting to stock

I seem to have an issue with my lockscreen wallpaper on my Huawei P20 Pro. No matter what I do it keeps reverting to stock within a few hours... And yes I have looked in themes and display settings and random wallpaper change is switched off.

I have noticed the same issue... I have turn off all stock lockscreen wallpapers and put my wallpapers (about 50) and after soome time it start play stock wallpapers again.
I remember in Mate 10 (or Mate 9} I could delete all stock wallpapers and only keep mine but I can't find a way to do it

I have try to delete stock wallpapers and seems to work for now but I need more time to check... You can check your own. First of all check that you have not select any stock Huawei wallpaper
Then go to lockscreen and see the first wallpaper.. scroll your finger from bottom, up to see shortcuts and scrolling photos press the "circle with the X button to delete it... Continue this until you delete all unwanted stock wallpapers. I hope that this will do the job.
1. Deselect all covers in the lockscreen settings
2. Select your picture in a gallery app, set as wallpaper, choose lockscreen only. Done

i did this , and it doesnt. omg.
delete all photos from the magazine unlock folder in the huawei folder - then check you have updates turned off for the magainze, etc - you can also pause the screens by swiping up when locked to get the mini bar for torch, calculator, etc - just press the pause button
mine has never updated since i done all this and can change lockscreeen or desktop picture when ever i want
I have the same problem except I can never display my images as covers in the locks reen. All other covers are unchecked and can't be deleted. I have read somewhere that you should deactivate and reactivate locks reen pw but it doesn't help for me.
I am not having this problem. Strange behaviour for some phones it seems.

well... yesterday somehow it started to work, after testing other themes, I reverted to the magazine lock screen and it worked... until this morning when stock started to show again... the only thing I did was to add the face recognition...
so there is smth not working correctly here... any one knows if there is a place where to report bugs at Huawei ? or is it useless to try ?

Magazine unlock wallpapers can't find in gallery

The magazine lock screen wallpapers can’t be found anywhere on the phone. I can’t find them in the Files and Gallery apps. It seems like we can only see them on the lock screen but can’t touch them. Could someone help me in connection with this issue?

You want the wallpapers or you want to choose your own wallpapers if so you have to look at your lockscreen swipe up from the bottom of the screen a menu will pop up now you can swipe left to right trough the preinstalled wallpapers, pause the current wallpaper, delete it or you can add your own wallpaper with the little portrait icon.. hope that helps!
I want to have the huawei magazine unlock photos at my gallery.

Swipe up from bottom at lockscreen, tap the heart, one wallpaper at a time, and they will be saved in Gallery
Thank you very much!
Thanks! I had the same doubt

Lock screen wallpaper not working.

Hello all, I have a G973F that I rooted and deleted a bunch of crap off of. My lock screen wallpaper is black. Still has the clock and the quick launch icons. But when I try to change the wallpaper to an image nothing works. Is it possible I deleted something related to the live wallpapers or something like that?
If so what should I look for to re-install.
My home screen wallpaper is working fine.
Thanks
Hello Chris33333, do vice versa your bull**** removed if possible as you are master on your phone.
You explain your removed animation, screen background in developer or in parameter.
How do I know what to put back on the phone>? When I pinch the home screen there is no longer a "wallpaper" icon to select.
Hello Chris33333, you pinch the screen, I press the screen to be able to add an application or others.
you put yourself on home is press 3 to 4 seconds you will have wallpaper, style, themes widgets and parameter.
