Only live wallpaper working?

---

Rooted at 6.2.1. Followed the standard directions to lock the wallpaper:

Open Root Explorer
Navigate to data/data/com.Android.settings/files/wallpaper
Long press on wallpaper, select permissions from the menu that drops down.
Uncheck the "write" permission for all users then click OK.

Live wallpapers work fine and stay in place. When I try to change the wallpaper to an image it does not work if I try it while rooted or unrooted. I go to wallpaper in the menu, select gallery, complete action using gallery, select the picture, save....and nothing, it does not become the wallpaper. Should I try a different app instead of gallery? Using Widgetlocker and that wallpaper works fine and I can change to what I want. Is some setting in that impacting this issue somehow? Thanks.

You have to go back into data/data or wherever it was located and restore the boxes that were unchecked so you can change the wallpaper..

Thanks, I did do that and it didn't work. Then I remembered reading someplace that you had to just keep trying it and it would work. Did that about five times and it finally worked! Strange that you would have to do that but what the hell, it works. Thanks again.

I had that problem too. Using the app "wallpaper set and save", solve it for me.
