organizing your wallpapers - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried searching the forum for a while, but I feel I'm asking this question wrong and getting the wrong search results. Having now used root explorer to change my MMS to bubbleless and changed my bootup I now want to know if there is a way to pull my wallpapers that are on my SD card that show up in the Gallery app and put them in the wallpaper folder.
I want to know if i can store wallpapers in the location were if you hold down on the homescreen it pops up that menu for wallpapers and there is a sub menu with a section called wallpaper gallery but it only has like two wallpapers in it, but you cant see them in your gallery app.
I'm sure somebody will have a one word term for this method of wallpaper storage along with root explorer address as to were to stick them.

They are stored in the Launcher.apk. I guess you'd have to edit the apk and place them into it and reflash/install it etc

They are in the launcher but the launcher pulls them by name so you'd have to rename your wallpaper to one of the existing names then scale your wallpaper down and replace the small image as well. There is a smaller one for the prieview pane in the wallpaper chooser. Extract launcher.apk on your pc and look in the drawable- hdpi folder

Need help accessing ADW Theme Icons...

I use Folder Organizer which apparently doesn't have an option for using ADW Theme Icons.
Is there a way for me to access my ADW Theme Icons and place them in my Gallery so FO can use them? Where are ADW Theme Icons located on my SDCard?
Anyone who is interested, I found the individual .pngs for the Fluxed ADW.Theme here:

** THAT'S WEIRD:
I just downloaded all of the Fluxed Icon .pngs to my sdcard but my Gallery can't see them. My gallery sees all my other Icons .png's just fine. Any ideas?

[Q] How To add pictures to the "Wallpaper Gallery" menu

Does anyone know to add pictures to the "Wallpaper Gallery menu"???? I use the stock ROM rooted which only comes with only about 4 or 5 wallpapers embedded into the Wallpaper Gallery menu however I decompiled the TwWallpaperChooser.apk and found there's waaaay more wallpapers than what the OS actually allows us to choose from... In the end I would like to have all the wallpapers shown under the Wallpaper Gallery menu. Can anyone help with this? Anyone??
I forgot if this was the same thread in the Q&A but if it isnt then...
Decompile the twwallpapers.apk
Goto res/values and open arrays
There you will find a name of listed wallpapers, add all the names of the wallpapers not listed.
Recompile and install to /system/app

The wallpaper gallery is an APK file that has the 5 wallpapers built into it. You could possibly open the APK with 7zip and copy the wallpapers into the right folder then re-install the APK with thew new items. This is theory, not yet tested.

How to change S3 Icons Picture

Hello I'm looking for a way for me to be able to change the icon picture of any application on my S3.
I do not want any other launcher like apex launcher to be able to do it.
I'm just looking for a simple way for me to select any picture in my gallery for my icons.
Please help!
Do you want to change the icons on your home screen or in your app drawer? You can use desktop visualizer for icons on your homescreen. Even with that I think you need a certain size pic to use as an icon. If you want to change icons in your app drawer you will need to search apk tool and learn how to pull apks from your phone,decompile them, change the icon, recompile them and reinstall them one app at a time. I don't think there is an easy way to do what your asking. If there is I hope someone posts it here cause I would like to know also.

Why is this so hard?

I have a rooted galaxy s4, and I use Nova launcher pro. I have a theme that I really like, and when I go set my wallpaper, I can choose wallpapers from my themes. The theme I use is by Kovdev, all his work is awesome.
However, that's only the homescreen, I cannot for the life of me find a way to set a wallpaper that comes with a theme as my lockscreen. I know there must be something easy that I'm just missing
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks
Go to settings, my device, display, then wallpaper and you should be good to go bro

Wrong section...

because usually the wallpaper you see in theme screenshots dont come with the theme. they are the authors personal wallpapers. there are exceptions, but not many
No.. What I'm saying is the theme comes with those wallpapers, when I just change the homescreen by long pressing and hitting wallpaper, I can choose from the theme. But I have no option for the lockscreen when I do that

Change wall paper on lock screen is the default TW launcher option.
you can do it from the stock launcher (don't know if wallpaper from Nova launcher will show up or not). If that's the case just save the wall paper to your gallery and chose from there. After you're done you can set Nova as default launcher again.
Use a root explorer and find the theme .apk in /data/app. Copy and paste the .apk somewhere else on your phone, unzip the .apk, find the folder the houses the wallpaper and pull out the wallpaper you want
