Panning wallpaper on Note 2? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How do I get the home screen wallpaper to pan when I change screens? I thought all android phones can do this?

Samsung turned it off.
If you're rooted and used an use Deodexed ROM you can flash a mod to enable it again.

I think Samsung must be disabling this awesome feature due to some kind of lawsuit probably with apple. I love the scrolling wallpaper. And that is unfortunate. It started making it way out when Gingerbread was getting some updates.

I never liked nor understood the meaning of scrolling walls, anyway, if you want that just use another launcher.

Get nova launcher prime

I am also wondering why they disabled this feature. Also Asus did the same. There must be a good reason for this.
Can't be apple since they don't have panning wallpaper. Or do they now? I am quite sure android had it first.

Cascade effect?

When I had an iphone you could get a Cydia tweak called Cascade which would make your dock icons have a little bit of a twist or tilt to them and was wondering if there is any app that I Could do that with?

mihome or go launcher ex mihome for a more iphone like ui
and they both should have transition effects under settings
Thanks, not really a transition effect but more just effects the docked icons to give them just a little tilted look. Google Cascade effect for iphone and you can see what I'm talking about

If you find anything post it here please.. I always been curious about giving icons a different aspect but just didn't know how to
-TeaM VeNuM Like A Boss
-Galaxy Note II Edition
This should be easy to do with custom icons that are created to look tilted.

NEXT Launcher Question???

Anyone with the NEXT LAUNCHER know how to stop the wallpaper from moving between screens?? I have a buddy that wants the same wallpaper to stay regardless of what screen he uses.
I was watching his launcher and it looks like an updated version of SPB 3D. His Background picture of his family moves as the screens move so it cuts off one of his kids when it gets to the last screen.
U may want to direct him to the go website probably not a lot of people going to have a 15 dollar launcher when lots are free

I got this launcher free and looked around the settings for that specifically.
Couldn't find anything so may want to email the developer and wait for next update.

I can tell you exactly how to do it!
In apex pro I think it's the same for NEXT as well that you have to unlock the full version to tweak the homescreen like that.
You could try wallpaper wizardrii

Buzz launcher!!

Didn't see anything in our forum about this launcher. Check it out. In my opinion blows every launcher out the water, theme wise, and it's only in beta stage

Great Find!!
Thanks sick launcher
Sg3 4.2.2 protected by UAG case .....
Thanks for the heads up man. Very cool launcher. Anyone figure out how to add additional screens though? Most themes only come with 1 or 2 screens and I like more than that for my widgets.
I just found this launcher today. Still figuring it out. But I think it is using quite a bit if memory. Pretty cool easy theming though without relying on uccw. I did add screens but it was by accident so I do know it is possible.

Very good launcher I would say it beats all launchers out there but it eats 144 of ram on my note 2! So I can't imagine what it would do to devices with less than 2 gigs of ram! Anybody having same issues????
Still is very powerful and living it so far!

If you bring up the launcher settings, click on upload. That will bring up a "normal" home screen manager" that also lets you upload your homescreen

[Q] A launcher that is closer to stock?

Hello all. I've been using nova launcher for a long time and I've been irritated a little because nova is not a complete replica of the stock android launcher (android 4.2). What I mean is, it looks similar but the spacing of the icons are not right (which I am able to adjust through nova settings) and the folder when opened its too close to the edge of my screen. Is there any other launcher that can possibly give me the closest feel to stock launcher apart from the stock launcher itself?
Thanks

The screen shot is from my phone using Nova launcher. It looks exactly like stock. All you have to do is set margins to Large and dock margins to large and it's done.

That I can do, but what I don't like is how the folders are pushed to the edge. There's supposed to be a bit more gap than the whats in default by nova.

Except it's not. The icons are at the top of their "areas" so there's a large gap at the bottom and almost none at the top. Changing the spacing affects both, so they are never even. Widgets seems to work properly. This has always bothered me about nova.

Can't live without nova prime launcher, the fact I can place more apps in folders an get rid of the useless stock search bar at top is worth it alone.
my question, why would they make a replica of Default launcher? if they're making a launcher they want to make sure its different and nothing like the default one..
if you know what i mean.. and btw i use nova launcher and i think its pretty neat and easy to use..
nova launcher is the best

Touchwiz Launcher Mod might be coming soon enough, but the 15 toggle mod i doubt, considering you currently have access to over 15 shortcuts quick settings....
