background wallpaper not moving? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hey, I am running into a somewhat annoying issue with regular wallpapers not scrolling along slightly with the home screen pages. The Live wallpapers seem to work just fine. I have verified that the resize prior to setting the wallpaper shows both the edges for the shift, but it does not do so when scrolling through homepages.
Is this normal for the Note 2?

I don't think the touchwiz launcher allows scrolling wallpaper. If you install and use the Nova Laucher it will allow that though.

Live wallpapers will scroll just fine in Touchwiz and static wallpapers will not. It's normal. Apex and Nova are 2 launchers that allow static scrolling wallpaper.

Cool guys, thanks. Was somewhat used to seeing it on older HTC devices and found it odd that my phone didn't do it.

Is it possible to have scrollable sense 3 wallpapers

H XDA,
Got a new rom which i'm loving, it's smooth and badass RCMIX3D v7
It's a proper animal of a rom.
My only gripe with Sense 3 is the static wallpaper and the streak one is just too laggy for my liking, so is there any way to have scrollable wallpapers on sense 3 roms?
Thanks.
did you ever get this to work as im having the same problem
It wouldnt work properly because the launcher goes straight to the other side once you swipe past the last screen. If you had scrollable wallpapers that would make an "interesting" effect where you can see the two edges meeting and not making a consistent background image. If you get what I mean lol

never thought of it like that but would still be nice to have could have it where when you get to end it would just start the picture again and the double edge could pass while it was changing screens

[Q] Stretching the wallpaper to match all the screen?

we have a perfect phone with amazing screen. but... .
its well knowed to any android owener that allways the wall-paper maximum traction on the screen is leaving a few percent down to dock and his apps\symbols and a few percent up to the bar and his apps\symbols, while the background of the bar\docks stays black\glass.
back in my merry days with the WM6.5 I recall there was software that really stretched the entire wallpaper including the bar and dock, and clearly saw the apps\symbols on the dock\bar but the background of them was the Wall-paper i cosed.
it was very Beautiful and really Reflected and showed the ALL SCREEN.
needless 2 say that worked on\with any luncher !
Utilization of the screen background picture - really makes an amazing phone.
does Anyone know such a method\app that doing the same in Android and works with our phone ?
tnx
If you use a launcher like launcherpro and you download on app like Flikie Wallpapers you can stretch your wallpaper and see it through all of your screens and dock. If you select a picture do it with Flikie to get it on all the screens.

[Q] Any scrolling wallpaper app with slideshow feature?

Any scrolling wallpaper app with slideshow feature?
So it could display highest quality scrolling wallpapers without reducing, or cropping, but also could auto change the wallpapers every X minutes or hours?
Are you talking about something like the HOX? When you change from a main screen to another the wallpaper scroll a bit, is that what you're talking about?
I do not own HOX, but scrolling wallpaper - we already have that on SGS3, just we set 1 photo for it to show.
What i want is to auto change the wallpapers, so I select a folder with wallpapers and it does the job
wallpaper changer on playstore do the job

Hi thanks so much for the app, I love this wallpaper changer!
There is a Thanks button for that
Multipicture live wallpaper is the best I have seen, you can set it so a different wallpaper comes up on every home screen, and you can chose set pictures for 1 home screen and cycle through a folder for the others! They cross fade into each other which looks great as well

Scrolling wallpaper feature is useless if you want to have different wallpaper on each screen

HTC One Wallpaper Size

so I've been on the internet, and everytime I find a wallpaper from the HTC One, they're only 1080x1920 instead of the typical 2160x1920, which is the wallpaper size for the DNA and S4 and other 1080p phones (obvi double the width necessary to fill the screen), which means they can't be uploaded to Zedge without warping or letterboxing them, and it also means it could be hard to find wallpapers on Zedge if the One doesn't support 2160x1920 wallpapers. Whats the deal with the wallpaper size, anyone know?
AW: HTC One Wallpaper Size
The one wallpaper size is 1080x1920, Sense did not allow wallpaper scrolling atm, so you need an height of 1920 pixel and a width of minimum 1080...
one'ed
You can get scrolling wallpapers with a different launcher,also I am sure that Venom Viperx team will do them scrollable in Sense like they did on OneX,so better keep both 2160x1920 and 1080x1920
i have tried some launcher, but wallpaper scrolling still not working.

Same here I am using Apex and I tried all the settings but my wallpaper is not scrolling really annoying, before I thought I am the only one, can someone help what's wrong with wallpaper scroll
Did you try with ADW launcher?
Also can you uninstall blinkfeed with Titanium Backup?
Perhaps this app is preventing wallpaper scrolling with non-sense launchers.
Worst case scenario is to wait for a MIUI/CM/Carbon rom or Viperx

I had this problem as well when I first got my phone.
I am using the Nova Launcher and while I know it should work right off the bat there is an issue that needs to be tweaked. If you go into these scrolling settings you need to tell it to force the scrolling and then it goes to the normal action that we're used to.
i use 768 X 1280 pixel since there is no scrolling i get best quality with this resolution.
You will get better quality with 1080 x 1920 as that's the resolution of the one.
The resolution you are using is 720p which is still going to be good as at this small a screen the difference won't be that obvious.

Even with 3rd party launchers wallpaper scrolling doesn't work. The only work around I found was using this live wallpaper: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shirobakama.imglivewp&hl=en
But for normal non-scrolling use, 1080x1920 is the best to use.

[Q] Zoomed wallpaper

Hi,
Not new to XDA but new to this section. Bought a 10.1 yesterday and so far I am happy with it apart from 1 thing. Whenever I set a wallpaper it gets zoomed in. Even when I chose in Nova Launcher that it should be static. I know why it zooms coz it needs to fit the wallpaper so it scrolls.
Is there any way to get the wallpaper to look like it looks in the gallery?
Tried Wallpaper Wizardrii but can't get it roll the way I want it to.
Also tried Image 2 Wallpaper and same as above.
Also Zedge and Kitty Play won't play ball either.
This is super annoying.
Suggestions?
I think I might have solved it myself.
In the gallery when you do "set as" I chose Nova Wallpaper. Then it shows as a static wallpaper in its correct size, no zoom.
