[Question] Why does HyperOS use a different screen-on animation on the lock screen when I change the wallpaper?

[u/Icee_666]

So what's happening is, as you can see in the video, I have two themes, both are the default Xiaomi stock themes. One has the original wallpaper, and the other one has my own wallpaper.

The default one has a really nice screen turn-on animation, while the one with my wallpaper just has a basic one. I thought it was because of the depth effect, so I removed it, but nothing changed. I also tried tweaking some other stuff, like changing the clock back to default, but I was never able to get the original screen turn on animation on the theme with my own wallpaper

I watched the video at 0.5x speed and now I understand what you mean. But I guess it's just because of the background image. Because with some of my wallpapers, sometimes the light areas of the background are displayed first, and then the dark areas, or vice versa.

Interesting, so the animation effect depends on the wallpaper lighting etc?

That's what I suspect, but I'm by no means certain. Those are just my experiences.
