People tile has gone blank...

[theeboredone]

Don't even know how this happened. I noticed that when I unlock my phone, my people tile is all blank, and will start flipping to pictures of my contacts. Lock the phone, unlock it, and the people tile has gone back to blank. This also happens when I scroll down, scroll back up, the people tile resets to blank.

I've tried resyncing my FB account. Deleting and re-adding it. Obviously tried deleting the people tile and readding it. Restarting phone. Nothing works.

Any tips?

My Lumia 920 does this sometimes too when I scroll away from it and then back to it. It seems a bit random though, it doesn't always do it.

I'm pretty sure this wasn't happening before, and I'm just a bit OCD about it. I enjoy seeing which of my friends are flipping through, and it sucks that when I scroll back up, it's gone completely blank on me.

Try restarting the phone. If that doesn't work, delete the tile and re-pin it on the start screen. That seems to work for any other tile I've found that isn't behaving correctly. Except for the WP Central one, ironically...

I have found the solution, so for any of those who want to test/need a solution for it, here it is.

I tested this on my friend's 8X and the demo 8X at my workplace. Turns out that when you place the "People" tile at the top, scroll down, and scroll back up, it resets any pictures flipping through. All I had to do was move the people tile one spot down and it seems fine now. Worked for all three phones. So it seems like it's a WP8 bug. I don't know if the tile will reset if you have a long list of tiles going downwards.
