You use default launcher or alternate? If you use alternate launcher, you must switch for short to default launcher and then return back to yours. It will work without problems

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] How to change app drawer grid to 5x6? (default 4x5)

I just recently change my ROM to Omega 5.2 can't seem to find how to change the app drawer grid to 5x6.
BTW I'm using Nova Launcher. TIA
Same question here.
I've tried searching th forum but can't come up with the answer.
Also - anyone able to tell me ho you can tell if the upgraded camera - 30fps has been installed.
Thanks
I think its already included on the Omega v5.2. If you're not using omega just flash this mod then

goto nova settings-> desktop->desktop grid and change it.
btw stock touchwiz do not support changing grid size by default, there are few mods for it in our app section

yes you can, just try the free one on the market
Thanks. I don't understand then why 5x6 was meant to be a feature of Omega and yet when I installed the ROM there seemed to be no option to set it.
I'm concerned that I am using a more efficient ROM and yet straightaway I am adding extra weight.
Nova doesn't seem to move as smoothly - even as Touchwizz
When I use Nova launcher, I lose the Accuweather clock. It reappears when I go back to Touchwizz.
Is there any way round this?

[Q] cm 11 How to get customizable grid?

I have a samsung galaxy i9000 s1 and I flashed cm11 m9 4.4.4 . How can I get a customizable grid like touchwiz has?

In the app drawer? There aren't many launchers that have that feature. Buzz Launcher is one I can think of off the top of my head, but is focused on themes / customizeableness. Most launchers can sort different ways in the app drawer via most used, time installed, alphabetical, etc but if you want like 7 apps on this page and 20 on the next and 5 on the 3rd in the app drawer etc, your options are limited.

Needs Xposed.
Edit: Not sure that would actually do it...

im curious. im still sticking to touchwiz for now.
what about you guys?
I'm not a Samsung fan. My gs3 I rooted and flashed cyanogenmod within 6 months, so just got a nexus 5 when it dropped, but this phone is so "beast" I had to come back to Samsung, but it's Google Experience Launcher all the way for me!

I use picspeed wallpapers just to get the option when setting wallpapers, best wallpaper "setter" I've encountered. Can set scroll or not, landscape, portrait, with any of those you can zoom in and out while maintaining the proper size box which can be moved around so WYSIWYG. Never use it for getting wallpapers and cant comment on the part but it carries its freight for me by being the default "setter".
I'm using Action Launcher 2, all edge features work.
Nova would be awesome if the swipe down actually made the notifications expand. For the moment, I'm using Action since all the gestures work properly.
I used TW for a few days. It was fine. I didn't really hate it.
But I saw Nova had a beta version and I love it. Been running it a little over a day now without issues.

Try the latest beta. It works. It just asks you to enable Nova's accessibility service and that about it! :good:

beta version because it allow swipe gesture for notification

Live Lock Screen Wallpaper

Hello all. I just had a question regarding live wallpapers on the lock screen. Is it only possible with certain launchers? Or only with 6.0.1? My wife has the G5 and I love the default wallpaper. I'm on Nova Launcher btw. Any suggestions?

Once we get root, this should work.. Not without moving them to system though..
