Help Live wallpaper on JB issue

Hey all,

I updated to JB a couple of weeks ago & just today did a factory reset to clear up some app issues & now when I have a live wallpaper set & unlock the screen (pattern lock), the wallpaper appears for a moment, fades very quickly to black and then flickers back on. I didn't see this behavior after the update but before the reset. I have tried the stock as well as Apex launcher & have the same issue. I'm on stock, unrooted 4.1.1

Anyone else having this happen, & if so am I missing a setting somewhere?

Thanks in advance...

Well, seem to be getting somewhere- the live wallpaper behaves better if I set a static wallpaper for the lockscreen & live one for just the homescreen.

Still don't know why it is an issue now when it wasn't before the reset...
 
i'm on JB and don't have this issue. Live wallpaper for lock and homescreen works great but I am trying the inbuilt windy weather one so your problem could be due to the wallpaper itself if its a third party one? I use widget locker over the inbuilt lock screen and give it its own static wallpaper

I've tried both- two third-party ones & one that came with the phone, all with the same results.
