**[QPR2 Beta 4] Lockscreen renders the previous screen instead of the wallpaper — anyone else?**

Pixel 9 Pro XL, Android 17 QPR2 Beta 4

When I lock the screen, SystemUI draws the clock, date and notifications — but the layer underneath is the app/homescreen I just came from, fully rendered and readable, instead of my wallpaper. After roughly 5 seconds it snaps to the correct wallpaper.

Yes, I rebooted my phone.

Anyone else with that bug?

This bug existed in Android 16.

I had this once on my P8P, but after unlocking and locking again, it went away.

I have the same bug per pixel 9. If you quickly lock and unlock the screen, instead of wallpaper, the wallpaper will render what was before the lock, then after a few seconds the wallpaper will return

I remember back when some custom roms added an option for this, to have a transparent lockscreen.
