Z5 Premium lock screen problem

Kelryth — Fri, 07 Oct 2016 07:38:50 GMT

My screen has changed and i cant change it to anything else. The picture is of a man with a garden hose tap in his right eye socket. I've looked on my phone and cannot find this image anywhere. Ive no idea where it came from.

@Kelryth Can you post a screenshot? Did you recently set up the device?

Hello @Kelryth and welcome to the forum!

Did this happen all of a sudden or was it after a specific action was performed? For example downloading an app. As @alexdon mentioned, can you post a screenshot of this? If the image of the man with the garden hose tap in his eye socket is on your lockscreen, are you able to change the lockscreen to another image?

Isn't that the old Valve logo?

Does the image disappear if you change your lockscreen background? Open an image in your album > Tap the three dots > Use as > Background for lockscreen. If there isn't any change after this, reboot your phone to safe mode. Has the lockscreen changed?

Yup it changed when i did that. It apears to be the old valve logo. I had to google it. I do have the steam app but its never changed my lockscreen wallpaper before.
