Cannot change lock screen wallpaper after 4.4.2 update to Xperia Z1

So I updated via PCC to 4.4.2 (14.3.A.0.681) and now the lock screen wallpaper is stuck to the "Air" theme wallpaper. Regardless of theme change or attempting to select custom wallapaper, the lock screen wallpaper does not change. I've tried going through the settings menu, the Album app, and the Photos app, but none of them can change the wallpaper. I've tried clearing all data from the lock screen app, force-stopping it, but no luck. Multiple restarts do not help.
Solved!

Have you tried a software repair?

  • Cannot change lock screen pin or to swipe

    Hi,
    I've just installed an app for my company wifi which requires the phone to have a lock screen. I chose a swipe pattern initially. After installation I wanted to change the pattern but the phone keeps asking me to enter the initial swipe pattern repeatedly. It recognizes the correct pattern but keeps asking me for the pattern for some reason.
    I used the Android device manager to change it to a pin number and now Im stuck with a pin number only, ie I cannot change it to swipe. I also cannot disable the screen lock as well.
    Please help. My phone is a Lenovo S90

    Hi unicorn,
    I think I know what is the issue here. Whenever I setup the MS Exchange on my phone, there is a need to use PIN (6 characters) as a security. Swipe is no longer an option.
    This is the same for all Android phones as this is a security feature setup by your company's Exchange server and in order for your mails to go into your phone there is a need to setup PIN (6 characters min or text).
    Let me know =)

  • Lock Screen wallpaper gone after 6.1.1 upgrade.

    Lock Screen wallpaper gone after 6.1.1 upgrade.  I tried resetting wallpaper and rebooting, but lock screen stays at default black background with battery.  Anyone else notice this?

    That's what happens when you are charging. Is your iPhone plugeed in?

  • The iPhone update 8.3 (12F70) is making my home screen wallpapers darker than the picture itself. Even if I set the same picture as home and lock screen wallpaper, the home screen image is noticeably darker. How can I change this?

    Is anyone else noticing the same issue?
    I'm really unhappy with the upgrade, the darker home screen images alters the coloring and detracts from the overall "light" feeling.

    Apparently it's been an issue since 7.1, according to this: http://forums.imore.com/ask-question/282076-black-tint-across-top-my-lock-screen -wallpaper.html
    The iPhone 6 is my first iPhone so I've never used iOS 7 before. Can anybody who has provide more info on this?

  • IOS7 has some bugs, Swipe changing lock screen! iphonehassomebugs

    Hi everyone,
    Iphone has some bugs(Part 1)
    Check this video for my very first bug experience,
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK_nIq4b82s&feature=youtu.be
    Steps to reproduce the issue:
    1. Keep the lock screen wallpaper and the home screen wallpaper different,
    2. Swipe right to unlock and swipe to the left immediately after you reach the right-end. Watch video for more reference.
    Other bugs on the way! .
    Regards,
    Sathish.

    Hmm, I have different wallpapers (one of my photo's for my lock screen and and just plain black for my home screen) and mine still does not do that.
    Try setting them both to something different, but simple - say different colors of one of the default screens.  Or just try one any pair of the default screens instead of your own custom pictures.  Does it still do it?  I cannot seem to get my iPhone to duplicate that no matter what I try with it.
    You can submit the info to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html  but try and give them as much details as you can, of anything you have tried that either does not change the abnormal behaviour or that does fix it.

    Hi,
    First of all, please run the command slmgr.vbs /dlv
    After that, check the License status if it is licensed.
    Is there any error message when you couldn't change lock background or this option just grey out?

  • Why is my lock screen wallpaper out of focus

    All of a sudden, my lock screen wallpaper photo is out of focus.  I changed it, and the same thing is happening to the new photo.  What's going on?

    I am confused what device you are talking about. You question is here in the Using iPhone section, but it is marked for your MacBook Pro running iOS 6? If you are talking about an iPhone and you never update your profile to say you are running iOS 7, I would blame the paralax feature that slightly zooms into your picture, making certain low-res photos look extra blurry. Hope this helps.

  • Lock screen wallpaper problem

    Hello,
    I've got a problem with setting lock screen wallpaper.
    Every time I go to settings --> personalize --> lock screen wallpaper and click on it, choose Xperia wallpaper or any other from the album, then it allows me to "cut" it, and as only I am trying to save it it shows me the message "unable to set wallpaper"
    Any ideas?
    Tried to restart the phone but still I've got this issue, very annoying. 

    No matter with or without the pattern as I only try to cut the picture and set it as wallpaper the result is always the same, you can see it on the screen below:
    It says: "It is not possible to set wallpaper"

  • Delete Lock Screen Wallpaper/ Using Customize To Change Slider Icons

    So, though it may sound a bit silly, i've had different wallpapers display on my lock screen for some time now, but i've found that i have absolutley no idea how to take it off. i'd simply like to revert back the the battery image on the lock screen, no wallpaper at all. i've gone through settings, and looked for a "No Wallpaper" option, but there is none to be found.
    Also, I've been trying to figure out how to add new images for the slider buttons, as well as the other options that are allowed with customize, can these be found in the Installer.app? i havent seen such things, unless there are sources that i havent found yet.
    help would be much appriciated, thanks!

    Hey Alan,
    To change the Wallpaper goto Settings>Wallpaper. The earth is the default image.
    There is no option to change the slider icons.
    You can request that feature online here:

  • Why can't I change the lock screen wallpaper on my new iPhone 3GS

    I went to Settings > Wallpaper > Wallpaper, selected a pic and tapped 'Set', but the background is still black! My phone isn't jailbroken btw.

    Same problem here with a 3G. It used to work. Stopped working in 3.1, I updated 4.1, still not working. It's always black (no wallpaper available).
    Prior to iOS 4 there was no way to change the background wallpaper, it was black.
    Only the 3GS and 4 allow changing the background wallpaper. The fact that you cannot change it on a 3G is not a bug, it is simply the way it is.
