I upgraded from Overcome v2.1.1 to v2.2.0 and it is no longer possible to set the lock screen wallpaper. In the Screen setting when I select the Lock screen wallpaper it sets the Home screen wallpaper instead.
Anyone else have this problem?

Nope, this problem use to be in resent versions but solved in 2.2.0, for me at least.

I would but I don't have enough posts to be able to reply in that section.
The lock screen wallpaper can be set if I select an image from the gallery. When I did that it set the wallpaper but the device crashed and reboot itself when I rotated at the lock screen.
I did have Widgetlocker installed when I upgraded the Overcome ROM. I'm guessing it may have screwed up something with the Screen settings menu. I've uninstalled that app but it made no difference.
Look issues in @alterbridge post:
"Unable to set lockscreen wallpaper from android 3.2.2 launcher (use the TW launcher patch if you require this functionality)"
My question is:
Are you sure that you install twlauncher patch?

It is possible to set the lock screen wallpaper from the gallery so I probably won't use the twlauncher patch.

Have you got this solved?
i believe the patch will definetely solve this. I had this issue with lock screen in 2.1.1 version and I had to install the patch and it worked fine after that but what didn't work was the calendar, social hub, ebook and facebook videos on facebook app. even though i applied the patch available then.
I am still looking for solution to the above and tonight I am upgrading to 2.2 . fingers crossed - hope it sorts out all the above.
experienced the exact same issue that you mentioned.
cant change the lock screen picture and when try to change from settings>screen> it changes the HOME screen BG.
This is a complete wipe OC 2.2 rom install.
I didnt want to apply the TW launcher patch and had no choice as I want to be able to change the lock screen graphics. After the patch it works fine.
But i want it to work without TW launcher.Any one would know if it is possible to remove the TW launcher patch and revert back to original OC2.2
btw the OC2.2 is perfectly smooth!!! love it and Big thanks to the dev team.

Just use apex and change transition to tablet, you can even change the amount of icon squares that you can have on your screen.
I doubt that you will find anything that comes closer to a tablet look than apex.
Plus it's a very slick ui.

this is what i do, change launcher to holo launcher hd and configure it, and my problem is solved. but i relly like te stock ui, so i maybe will try to convert all apps to work with 160 dpi...
I always believed that one of the biggest benefits of going to 1280x720 is that we should finally be rid of app compatibility problems.
Anyone still having problems with any apps? Since we are S3 resolution identical now, I assume this list should be close to nil.
Anyone trying apps that didn't work before? Horn, for example, just totally crashes on the Note 1.

Same on my note. I bought it yesterday when it was on sale for 25cents, but looks like I got taken! Does nothing but immediately crash on my note 1, fully stock, unrooted running the latest ICS firmware (LRT). Sad times.
I can't even download Horn on my n7100. It says incompatible.
I think Horn is Tegra 2/3 only. It says optimised for, but isn't compatible with any of my devices.
Hey guys,
anyone tried to use apex on the note2? (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anddoes.launcher)
It seems to stutter a little bit. Can anyone proof that, or is it just my device? Using 4x5 lines on 4 screens, so nothing special.
Also the search bar from google is white, when I swipe from screen to screen, but when it stops, it gets gray.
Good news is swiftkey doesn't know if it's a tablet or a phone. I can use phone or tablet version (bought both).
Unfortunately swype beta seems a bit laggy for me. What text input do you use?
Anyway, best device I've hold in my hand!
Didn't have a crazy experience with apex either.
I actually uninstalled it and went back to twlauncher =/

osu!droid stutters very badly if you disable the internal music player (which you'd need to do to play songs with .ogg files)
tap sonic freezes for the first 10 seconds in a song, and then jumps ahead and plays without sound.
touchmix graphics don't line up with the touch detection so you have to tap above the buttons, it's worst in the lower half of the screen.
touchmix fx freezes when you start it, you need to press home and launch it again to unfreeze.
It seems that SketchBook Pro cannot be installed on this device. that makes me a sad puppy.

Yep top device, but Apex lags a lot in the app drawer for me. Shame it's my favourite launcher.

Nice, just tried and bought it. It's just like apex but totally smooth!
Nova Launcher works great but
You lose S Pen pop up (no big deal because you can just click on the app.)

er.. no I use nova and I have spen pop up.
You only lost the auto-go to special homescreen of twlauncher but you still get the auto smemo popup
Tried again. Get notification in status bar but no pop up. S pen setting to open pop up window was not checked. Works now.

Has anyone else noticed some rotation issues with the kindle fire (HDX 7)?
Some apps such as instagram and spotify do not rotate once opened regardless of altered settings/reboots.
GoLauncher also does not work in landscape unless rotation lock is on in landscape.
Is there any fix to this?

Fire OS 3 && 3.1 is very buggy. The reboots are the most vexing thing. I tried a launcher but was annoyed. I'm praying lots of people root this thing then the devs come out with ROM's Kernals Tools and stuff. I don't have a prime account. I got the HDX because it has the best hardware for the price. Just please!!!! Get me away from Fire OS!
Odd. I haven't had a single reboot since updating to 3.1. I had a few before the update.

Nova has always been problematic w/Fire OS for the specific reasons you cite. Other issues included inability to set Nova as the default launcher and rotation issues (both primarily under FireOS v3). I use and love Nova on all my Android devices but never got it to work properly with FireOS. See here for another option (untested).
