Wallpaper resets when car is turned off and back on

nihalahmed

I have installed the Microsoft Launcher and made it the default launcher. When I set a wallpaper on it and then turn off my car and then turn it back on, the wallpaper resets to the default DUDU OS wallpaper. Anyone knows why that keeps happening and how to fix it?

Thanks!

Are you using a DUDU radio device?
You've only installed the DUDU launcher, correct? In that case, it's difficult to troubleshoot this issue. Please upload the version number you're using so we can take a look.

I have encountered the same issue with Nova Launcher.

Even if I change the wallpaper with those third-party home apps, it looks like it will be forced to change to the original wallpaper when the DUDU launcher Pro stands up after restarting (manually or with the car's power).

I can reproduce it with 3.6E and 3.7beta with the third-party 7862 unit.

Which specific image are you referring to as the original wallpaper?
DUDUOS writes the default wallpaper once during startup. Unified UI
However, wallpapers within the wallpaper mode remain unaffected.

This is what I mentioned as the original wallpaper.

And this is a video that reproduces the issue.

This is the system default wallpaper and cannot be changed. You can change the launcher wallpaper.

DUDU-Meng I understand.

Which app or service is actually running this? If possible, please let me know by the package name.

Saburo This wallpaper is pre-installed within the system and will be applied each time the device boots up. You cannot change it.
Currently, there is no functionality to modify the system wallpaper.

DUDU-Meng OK, can you accept this as a future enhancement request?

I'm not sure if this request can be implemented. Please post it in the feature request section first.

I found a very hacky workaround for this until they fix this issue properly.

I installed an app called Automate from the play store. I created a workflow in that app that basically checks whether the current wallpaper colors match that of the default DUDU wallpaper. If they do, then I set my own wallpaper. This check happens every 1 second.
