[Q] how to fixate wallpaper? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Is there a way to fixate the wallpaper in TW launcher?
I just want to have non moving wallpaper even tho I scroll over the launcher pages.
I tried to change the picture size and all, but the wallpaper still moves along with the pages..

Tw launcher.? I never heard of that..but. almost all the launchers, there should be a setting for scrolling wallpaper. I believe it is in screen settings.
This is my signature....

I would assume he means stock touch wiz launcher..

Fair enough lol, make sure you have Overcome ROM flashed, don't think it works on other ROMs yet
Will do.. Are you trying the wallpapers on the stock launcher or adw?

Use multipicture live wallpaper or wizardrii to get a good crop or use full picture.

Don't know if it's a honeycomb feature or a TW one. Wallpapers are croped and resized in 5 parts (center, left, right, up, down).
It's just weird...
Its a honeycomb thing, because wallpapers have to be able to be in portrait and landscape view.

Use the APP wallpaper for tablets.. once installed it will appear under live wallpapers.. you can fiddle with it and set an image as background and it does a good job!

+1 for this. Use multipicture live - it's what the majority of people are using to fix this issue and you can set it up so that a double-tap will change your wallpaper to another (of those in the same picture folder).

Use an app called picspeed wallpapers, its a wallpaper downloader that lets you set non scrollable wallpapers by choosing what part of the pic you want
The great thing is that it also works with images that you have stored in your sd card, just go to gallery, choose to set as, in the options should be the picspeed icon, select it and you will be able to set as non scrollable
also theres a custom option to select entire wallpaper without cropping(just what you were looking for)

No it is not. It's Samsungs design feature not to scroll wallpapers.
Try wallpaper wizardrii, and choose "crop landscape". But I'm on Apex launcher so don't know if TW has it.
Again, APEX LAUNCHER HAS WALLPAPER SCROLLING if you use wallpaper wizadrii
It doesn't work ... it seems that is part of the system.

Well I thought so, because it's the same with all new sense phones!

Apex launcher add a new option to select the wallpaper and let you define the galaxy nexus background with scrolling effect.
After installing this launcher this new option persist. The drawback is that there is only one backgroud image... maybe it is possible to add new backgrounds with scrolling effecs if we find where they are placed...

Possible solution for Galaxy S3
I found this application, still beta version :
Scrolling Wallpaper
Andronymus
Description:
This live wallpaper is for devices which do not have the possibility to scroll the wallpaper image with the stock launcher. It is mainly designed for the Galaxy S3.
It is a replacement for the background wallpaper in the home screen.
PD: I can't not post the link because I'm a new user ...
-> the web is -> play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=lwp.superluminar.swallpaper&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImx3cC5zdXBlcmx1bWluYXIuc3dhbGxwYXBlciJd
I cant find a reason why to do this.
I hope developers with custom roms fix this,because samsung sleeps...
Yep ... i agree with you...
lol thats stupid !
A live wallpaper is not a good solution, but is something ...

This is what you have to do.
Put whatever background you want to use on your web server.
Use the stock internet program to navigate to that picture.
Long press on the pic to bring up the menu.
Select "Set as wallpaper"
Finally, the wallpaper is scrollable. And use 1440 x 1280.

[Q]Scrolling wallpaper

is there a way to get scrolling wallpaper working on the stock sense rom? i'm using apex, which has a scrolling wallpaper option, and i tried using quickpic(since the sense gallery wallpaper picker only crops for a non-scrollable wallpaper) but nothing will work. i always just get a static background
any workarounds?
without rooting, that is. i'm trying to use the phone stock for a little while before i root to see how i like it
Pretty sure this was removed totally in sense 5....
In fact, I dont even get it to work with Nova Launcher Prime either. I select a 2160px * 1080px as wallpaper with wallpaper scrolling enabled, but all i get is a static 1080px wallpaper and no scroll effect.
There is an option in nova launcher settings to force scrolling wallpaper for Samsung devices like the galaxy. Just make sure that is ticked and it will work.

You can download the app landscape wallpaper from the market for free,it will allow you to do so with the stock or aftermarket launchers.

Works for my GS2 on Apex. Make sure you download QuickPic from the playstore. Then long press on your homescreen and select Wallpapers, where it says Choose wallpaper from..select QuickPic. It should work from there.
Sent from my S2SR
yeah, i've tried quickpic and the stock android gallery, no luck
i installed nova real quick and that worked, but i like apex more. so it has something to do with sense i guess.
Has anyone found a way to scroll in sense curious?

I didn't see any way to do it with the stock launcher. I use Nova, but all customs launchers offer it. If not need to wait stock tweaked launcher on custom's ROM.

Wizardrii works but I find it buggy mit keeps on resizing my wallpaper everytime
Sent from my C6802 using Tapatalk 4
I was trying to figure this out too. wizard wizardrii was buggy so I deleted it. tried nova launcher and hated it too. only thing I was able to do was resize picture to 1920x1080 on laptop and copy and paste it again like a double image. that works. it scrolls one picture to the next identical picture. lol alot of work for something so simple.
