Wallpaper is flashing when exiting apps to Home Screen

My Wallpaper will go flashing whenever I exiting apps to go to Home Screen. Just thought the bug comes from enabling WiFi, but after disable wallpaper, the symptom still exist.

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
What type of wallpaper are you using? Is it a preloaded/live wallpaper? Is the wallpaper flashing several tiems? If not, I think the reason why it flashes is because some apps are using another resolution than the home screen. And when you exit an app, the home screen need to restore the right resolution.
You might seen the same thing happen on a PC when you tab out from a game or similar.

  • Random blue/red flash on screen when exiting apps

    Hi,
    I have an iphone 6 64gb with ios 8.1. I encounter a weird blue and sometimes red flash on screen when exiting app (specific to galaxy empire only). It looks like the blue/red screen of death but just a very quick flashing. so far no other problems occured but it sokehow makes me uncomfortable especially the phone is only less than 3 weeks old. Is it a hardware problem?

  • Unlocking my iPhone 5s (running 7.1.2)either by Touch ID or passcode the screen will quickly flash black before showing the Home screen.

    HEY , please help.
    im currently running on ios 7.1.2 and unlocking my iPhone 5s either by Touch ID or passcode the screen will quickly flash black before showing the Home screen. You know its a pure random thing , like a second. Its annoying . Help please , do i need to restore i hard resetted it twice .

    You may have fragmented RAM on the phone; that second is the time it takes to move apps around in memory to make room for the Springboard (the internal app that displays the Home screen). To fix this do the following:
    While on the Home screen double-press the HOME button.
    For each app displayed, swipe up on its screen image to close the app and free its memory
    When all apps have been closed this way reset the phone by holding the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears
    If this doesn't fix it you should restore the phone using iTunes. Please let us know if this solves it, however.

  • Exiting app when in folder on home screen

    I have created folders on my home screen which contain apps or links; however when I exit the app or website started from the folder it brings up the home page. It should go to the folder I had open! Totally annoying!

    I don't know what you mean when you say archive files.
    I found this article that applies to your torch dealing with app world issues.

  • When I swipe my home screen,the apps stay there and the next page is superimposed over the top of them. Like they are stacked on top of each other.

    I have ghosting of some apps at the bottom of the screen, and when I swipe my home page the folders are frozen there and the apps from the next page
    move across and stack on top of the folder icon on the first page

    Initially they were stacked, then I tried to do a reset. Now the folders look like a screenshot of my first homepage, and the bottom bar is a ghost of the original

  • How do i organize apps on home screen?

    I have 3 screens of apps is there a way i can organize the apps by moving some apps around to different screens? I know i can move them around on the same screen by holding down one of the apps and move them when they are wiggling on the screen but is there a way to a different page?

    Yes, just move it to the edge of the screen and it will move to one of your other "Home" screens. This works for me anyway.

  • Banner alert stopping launching apps from home screen

    Whenever a banner alert appears from my home screen, it prevents me from going to open a different app. This is happened when using WhatsApp so I don't know if it's a third-party issue.
    For example the banner alert is from WhatsApp, but I can't tap on the app itself, I have to tap on the banner alert. I try tapping on different apps and it won't let me.

    You should tap on the banner and it will open the app. If you wait a moment, the banner will disappear, unless you have it set to Alert, which will require you to tap on the alert before you can do anything else.

  • IPad missing app on home screen

    Our Netflix app is not showing up on our home screen even though the App Store says we have it downloaded on this device. I just updated my iPad so it is up to date. The netflix icon shows up on the updates page in the App Store, but there is nothing to the far right indicating we can update or open the application. When you search for it in the App Store it shows up, but if you try to "get" it the icon says update, but it is very faint and does not do anything when you press on it. I called Netflix and they told me if I cannot uninstall the app, which I cannot get it to delea, then it is an apple problem. So I cannot get it, or update it, or deleat it. And it does not show up on the home screen to play. Please help.

    Do you have an app age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it from your iPad's home screens (and from downloading updates to it) ?

  • App on Home screen

    How can I put an App (Nokia Messaging) on my Home screen?

    Sorry but I have to disagree with you there as the ability to set a shortcut is a phone feature, not the apps feature. It is covered in the user guide how to set shortcuts but you must have missed that page.
    You also have to remember that the 5800 is a mid range media phone, not a phone aimed at business users like the E series models are. That is why it doesn't have the extra messaging features like the E series models do.
    Perhaps you just choose the wrong phone for your needs? Research is important when choosing any phone from any manufacturer.

  • IPod/iPad opening to an app vs. home screen upon unlocking

    Very annoying occurrence that I noticed only after updating to iOS 7:  When unlock (i.e., turn on from sleeping) my iPod (5th gen) and iPad (3rd gen), many times (not every time) it opens up an app I was recently using and I have to hit the home button 1-2 times to get it back to the home screen where the app icons are listed.  This is very annoying.  Any suggestions on how to solve this matter?  Shouldn't my home screen appear when typing in my code?  It always has until recently.  I've done resets on both the iPod and iPad but it continues.  I shouldn't have to close out apps running in the background everytime I put the device to sleep - never had to do this before.  Thanks.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             

  • Closing apps & deleting apps from Home Screen

    Ackkk.  What the manual says will happen isn't what happens. I looked.  Honest. Thing is, I don't always want stuff to keep running in the background.  (E.g., listening to music.  I know I can hit the pause button to stop the song from playing, but I don't just want it paused.  I want it turned off.)  (Make any sense?)
    Bought iPad 2 yesterday, upgraded to iOS 5.0 just fine, did the little ICloud installation just fine, downloaded the "iPad User Guide for IOS 5.0 Software" , and actually read the applicable parts. (I'would point out that the fact that I read the manual is probably because I'm a girl-person and not a boy-person, but that would be sexist.)  (So I won't point that out.)
    Here are the manual instructions I'm having problems with:
    Page 23: Force an app to close: Touch and hold the app icon until it begins to jiggle, then tap "-" (the manual has an illustration showing a little red circle with a minus sign)
    Page 24: Deleting an app from the Home screen: Touch and hold the app icon until it begins to jiggle, and an "X" appears.  Tap X to delete the app ..." (the manual has an illustration showing a little red circle with an X)
    MY PROBLEM: I touch and hold ANY app icon, every app icon on the whole screen begins to jiggle (entertaining, but not helpful ...)  And none of the cute little jiggling icons (including the one I'm holding) shows me any little red circle containing a minus sign OR any little red circle containing an "X" ...
    On Page 25: Move an icon to another screen:  Drag an icon to the right edge of the screen until another screen appears (yadda yadda)". 
    MY PROBLEM: In the manual, it looks like they're dragging one of the standard Home Screen icons from the main home screen to a second screen.  I DID set up a second Home Screen just fine for other apps (Kindle, a game, etc.) but wanted to move some of the built-in icons to that second screen ... when I drag one to the right, it doesn't go off that screen.  (though all the icons start that cute litle jiggling thing.)  Am I stuck with all the icons on the main Home screen just staying there, or am I just not getting it?
    Thank you thank you thank you thank you.

    To close an app you first need to open the taskbar by double-clicking the home button (the taskbar will then show at the bottom of the screen and the rest of the screen will 'fade'), and then press and hold one of the apps that show on the taskbar - you should then get the  symbol on those open/recently used apps.
    To move apps you first need to press and hold one of the apps (on the homescreen not on the taskbar) so that they start to shake. Then drag the app (not too quickly) that you want to move and hold it so that it overhangs the edge of the screen - after a second or so the display should then change to the next screen and you can then place the app. You can also move apps via the Apps tab when connected to your computer's iTunes using the mini-screens that show on the tab.

  • Videos on a web page will no longer play when accessed via a 'home screen' bookmark

    iPad 2, iPad Mini iOS 8
    I have saved certain web pages as bookmarks 'to the home screen' but since the iOS update when I open these pages and try to play an embedded video that is hosted on the website itself (as opposed to a YouTube type one) the video will no longer load or play, its as though the play button pop up is missing, they will play from a standard bookmark and they will play from the page when I load it up in Safari before I save the bookmark but as soon as I create a shortcut and 'add to home screen' they stop playing.
    I've tried this on iPad 2, iPad Mini & iPad Air all running iOS 8, they were all fine before the iOS update so that's certainly caused the issue but has anyone else experienced this or know how to resolve it?! 

    it's possible.  but you have quite a lot to learn or you should hire someone.  it's unlikely you'll find someone to do all that gratis.
    if you want to learn, check the video class.  it will let you play the flv file without a skin.
    you can also use the flvplayback component with no skin.  that will add to your swf's file size with no benefit except it's easier to use than the video class.
    the floating and disappearing can all be done with divs.

    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    If it does, I would connect to iTunes, backup the phone and then restore it again.

  • Is it normal to see white lines when you press the home screen while it's charging?

    Hi, I have a brand new ipad mini and I'm noticing that while I'm charging it and it's in sleep mode, if I press the home screen button whitish/grey lines will appear on the bottom of the screen for a few seconds then fade away. Is normal when charging your ipad mini?

    No it is not.

  • Restore ovi store icon/app to home screen

    Hi,
    I accidentally deleted the OVI STORE icon/shortcut  on one of my homescreen.
    Is there a way to add the shortcut back to the home screen? Please advise.
    I am aware that I can still access OVI STORE from the menu option but would prefer to use the shortcut app on my home screen.
    Thank You

    Long press the widget you want to add ovi store to, select option edit, choose application, then scroll through your apps and select Ovi Store, it will then appear in the widget !
    Assuming that you have a Symbian^3 phone as you have more then one homescreen !
