Maybe it’s A MIUI issue, I tried on my redmi note 7 while using a custom rom and it’s ok to me we need more people with the will of testing it

Of looking for borderlight. Check out. https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/live-wallpaper-borderlight-edge-t3861174

Not sure if this would be helpful but is there any way you could attempt to boot into safe mode?

There are adjustments in the config to change the corners

I want it

Which custom rom you run?

Name checks out

This happen to me ( Xiaomi t9 pro ) too and a have I pic I took as a wallpaper. I think I’d a bug or something

Ok so this probably won’t work, but try removing you SIM card. I was having the exact same symptoms, screen turning on and off almost every second to the point i couldn’t even unlock my phone. Once I removed my SIM card it stopped glitching out, and I could use my phone like normal. I don’t think my issue was related to my wallpaper, so this probably won’t work for you, but I figured I would post it anyway. In the end I couldn’t figure out what was causing my SIM card to glitch out my phone like that, and had to reset my phone but since then I haven’t had an issue.

I put a new link that opens it up in google. It’s a completely black image with very narrow rainbow color line that outlines the screen.

interesting, you think it’s a big bug who made miui blackout or a 0 day ? in any case wtf we need to verify that a picture will not crash our phone if we have locked bootloader

I almost can’t believe this. I’m urged to try it out on my mi 9T pro too now.

Did you use the Borderlight app or is it really that specific wallpaper?

Somebody should try this wallpaper without the AMOLED. Probably the AMOLED screen could be the problem. I don’t think that the image is corrupted or something

How can you be sure of this? If it’s true, it’s a really strange software bug

Nope: https://i.redd.it/je65fih3f5021.png

HavocOS

I don’t know. I’m trying to find an explaination. Probably Have just “a few” led on, the screen could have problems

happening only with this one or any “border” background?

Back in 2005-2006 you could literally take control of almost any phone with bluetooth via simple app. Mostly tried on Nokias and Sony Ericssons, since they were most popular in Poland.
You could literally wipe all the data, or send SMS, or copy all messages and contacts, or play the ringtone out loud… you get the point.

And yes, you didn’t need any bluetooth permissions from the attacked phone.

As an electronics engineer with some hardware programming experience, I highly suspect this is caused by a synchronization error. Most likely, one of the bits are distrupting poorly written synchronization algorithm.

It happened on my Redmi Note 7, I had to wipe out my data..

Dirty flash works fine for updating or clean flash necessary for every update?

Before it was fine, but recently they changed devs so currently I don’t have an idea, I need to test it

is this safe? I don’t want to wipe all my data, but that looks dope as fuck, also it’s too interesting to miss it

>You can store and execute code hidden within images. There is definitely some sort of malware hidden in the picture, possibly in the EXIF data.

And the proofs are?…

E: after brief googling I found this: https://umbrella.cisco.com/blog/2019/07/24/picture-perfect-how-jpg-exif-data-hides-malware/

But chances that the picture set in android triggers javascript execution? Dunno about that.

E2: we have the picture provided in OP, so we can examine it. Nothing interesting in the EXIF so I think its not the case.

Tried it but on the mi 9 lite, works like any other wallpaper. Phone doesn’t bug.

Unfortunately no, nothing you described is correct.

First of all, (AM)OLED panels don’t work like backlit panels. Light is emitted in per pixel basis on a single layer. So every pixel is individual, that’s why they can get perfect black wherever they want.

Also even on back lit panels, there’s nothing such as “having too few pixels to light up”, that’s simply untrue. Panel controllers doesn’t work like that.

Also system cannot know if the panel is on/off when the panel controller returns a false positive.

This is a MIUI issue.

Would you recommend HavocOS 3.0 against MIUI 11 Stable from Xiaomi EU? Any noticiable bug?

Also because Idk, I just like to have stuff look different than what it came with

I tryed it and nothing happens

Yes, thanks. That doesn’t happens to me 😛

Installed on my mi9 and works fine. Top corners and notch aren’t great if you have the setting to hide notch in MIUI. If you set to not hide this app works well

As I already said, the problem is there on IPS panels too, I had misread it. But you actually misunderstood my message too. what I meant was something else. I meant that exactly because every pixel is individual on AMOLED maybe MIUI had implemented something like “there are next to zero pixels on? Then I turn off COMPLETELY the screen (=touchscreen+the few pixels that actually were supposed to be on)”

you have a custom rom or a custom launcher?

Oh ok

Ok, i tryed it on my Mi 9T Pro and It worked

Can confirm Mi 9T Pro

No problem, PS: I think is safe use another rainbow backgrounds like this: [https://www.reddit.com/r/Mi9T/comments/czr0ka/rainbow\_border\_wallpaper\_for\_our\_people/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Mi9T/comments/czr0ka/rainbow_border_wallpaper_for_our_people/)

​

EDIT: I used this, it’s safe and no crashing, you can put a logo if you want

Device: Mi 9T Pro

I have solved it.
If you have put it and do not want to delete the data, in the recovery (TWRP / OrangeFox). Go to the following links and delete all “wallpapers”.

/data/system/users/USER_ID/

It has some adobe tags, probably from where it was made.

We can rule that out by saving it as bmp in eg paint and then converting it back to png

made this:

same image saved in paint as bmp adn then back to png. it lost all the xml header lines

now we just need a guinea pig: [https://i.imgur.com/1MSnTLF.png](https://i.imgur.com/1MSnTLF.png)

I threw this photo to a friend and he has been offline for 35 minutes, and does not answer calls

Hahahahahahahahahahaha

This problem just happened to me today, but with a different wallpaper that I downloaded a while ago, and I don’t remember where I took it.
Luckily I had the bootloader unlocked and I could boot a custom recovery via fastboot to erase the wallpaper config files in /data/system/users/0/ and restore the phone full functionality.
I just noticed that the wallpaper was basically the OP image with a red planet added in the lower part, I didn’t noticed the contour in the first time but it’s there. It’s not a rainbow colors contour, but a two-tone, gradually changing one.
So we could say that the bug is caused by the wallpapers that include the drawn screen boundaries, and it’s even more strange because my phone is a Mi 9T that doesn’t have a teardrop notch, but the contour in the wallpapers had it…

Here is the wallpaper that caused the bug to me, only 100 downloads and only for 7 days:

Note 6 Pro with HavocOS here, no issues with the wallpaper

I lost all of my stuff.

Hi is there a way to boot TWRP / OrangeFox With a locked device ? I can’t unlock my device without loosing all my data it seems.

Best regards 😉
