Same here...impossible to set personal image correctly as wallpaper...
Tested in touchwiz and Apex, samedi bug.,,

Not 100% sure but, I think Samsung took the ability of scrollable wallpapers out because of Apple crying that they stole it. I think I remember reading this somewhere.

I don't think so - the stock wallpapers scroll perfectly fine, after all. I think it's just a bug in the software.

It works fine with Apex. It is weird that they have removed the feature in Touchwiz. I sincerely hope it's a bug.

Hi unf, try switch to EX go launcher and you will have no problem with scrollable screen, and the best thing is S III lock screen also works with Go launcher

I tried that, but I only get the following glitch:
As you can see, that's not a suitable fix either

What about the App Wallpaper Setter? Haven't tried it but I will in a few hours...

"Crop Wallpaper" on GooglePlay is the easiest to do the job !

yep, it's launcher pro with a sense dock. it has sense style buttons for you to chose from. They dock's layout is slightly different from stock (2 small buttons on sides, 1 big button in middle). the widgets are also themed. other than that it's launcher pro.
I have been using this forever. It got a c&d I believe though since it's basically giving you launcher pro+ for free. Created by Rang3r

Short answer: get Wallpaper Wizardrii from the play store. It lets you apply wallpaper with scaling, cropping to fit, etc.

I don't think it's a sense issue. I would look at the rom, or if other people who are using the rom are having issues.
Current. Lock and unlock. Pic I took with my Rezound. Currently running rooted stock rom.

its the "Dark Holo Cards" theme from mycolorscreen.com, its designed for use with the nexus 4(720p) but can work with 1080p
I did not use the wallpaper part and also the circle battery widget trips out on our phones, it takes a little toying around to get everything right (its actually 5 themed screen)
Dark Holo Cards
I might also warn that as you add more of the "widgets" to the home screen it starts to lag out, same thing with when moving from screen to screen after its setup its a little laggy, not sure if its an issue with the phone or with nova launcher compatibility

What icon set are you using? and it looks like you've modified Sense 5 because I can't get that clock to appear on any other launcher. I can't unlock and root just yet but maybe I can use the icons?

No you have to root, and I made all those icons. It is impossible to change any sense icons unless you root and modify framework/system files.
Or you could use another launcher like apex, etc

Nova Launcher with One More Clock Widget. I really like the clock widget. There are 9 places inside the widget to open assigned apps. Just a random wallpaper app in the back.

This is my homescreen. Large font on the launcher bar means tapping the text and the small text means when you gesture up on the launcher bar.
eg when you gesture up on the Media/Travel button you get this:

I'm using Nova Launcher with default KitKat icons and default wallpaper. Boring but simple. I actually really like the wallpapers that came with this phone. They're bright and simple!

Here's my screen, but it's not very exciting. Default launcher. This is my first Galaxy, actually, my first non HTC phone (touch to hero to Evo lte).
Does anyone know if there's a way to change lines/rows on the screen to allow for more shortcuts? Just wanted to check before putting a different launcher on it.
Thanks.

I recommend factory resetting the device that may help you out. And see if there is anything keeping the phone awake.
