Finally…a new device (Xiaomi Note 3 Pro (Snapdragon version) fully stock, for now), and LL is working much more smoothly, than on my old phone.

My setup was really buggy, when I tried to restore it from my backup, but it was simple enough to recreate, from scratch. (A few odds & ends remain.)

One quick question. I have a boarder around the edge of my homescreen wallpaper (one page setup), roughly ‘5’ wide & at the very edge of the screen, all the way around. I did not add this boarder. Any idea how to eliminate it?

  1. When moving a theme to another device, better to restore template than backup.

    Re: white line…

    Do you have a full screen panel on your homepage?

    If so, select and go to box, and select border, and make it zero.

    Border is not tied to panel (which is not full screen).

    Thanks for the feedback on migrating a layout between devices .

  3. Well if there is nothing there, then it’s your wallpaper.

    The wallpaper image, itself, doesn’t seem to have a border (as part of the image). Also, the image is applied as a desktop wallpaper, not as a system wallpaper, because system wallpapers were resizing themselves, and seem to lack the option to ‘fit to height & width’.

  5. Michael P. Jackson yeah, so what is the size of wallpaper compared to screen size?

  6. Try to put the same picture back in, only take off a tiny bit of the edges in the crop box that comes up and make sure it’s set to fit width and height. Just to see what happens…

    Upgraded to official global development ROM (Marshmallow-based MIUI, beta), and no problems with the border, when I rebuilt my layout (which was the easier, softer way, due to substantial changes to apps, etc). I suspect the problem was (somehow) ROM-generated and not LL-based.

  8. Michael P. Jackson I didn’t know you were on a custom Rom. That’s (usually) the first place to suspect!

    Glad you got it sorted.

    The original ROM was SUPPOSED TO be OEM, but I discovered some vendor-based mods to it, including imbedded ad-ware/malware, so I fought with it for almost a week and finally got it flashed to an official Xiaomi (OEM) ROM…albeit a beta.

    (I’m liking it, thus far, but really hope for a ‘bug-free’ method of TWRP & root. Devs are on it…but boot image is proving a bit tricky, to date. Marshmallow is nice, and MIUI is not bad, but I’m not big on heavily-modded OEM ROMS.)
