HTC Sense Launcher: Wallpaper scroll? - HTC EVO 3D

It seems as though the wallpaper no longer scrolls with Sense 3.0. This sucks, and there doesn't seem to be any sort of workaround. Not that I was going to stick with the stock launcher for long anyway but it would have been nice. The launcher isn't even semi-transparent like I hoped it would be. ROOT can't come fast enough!

yeah i noticed that too now i need to re-size all of my images unless we can find a fix for that, not a deal breaker on my end either and the sensitivity of the scroll would be nice to adjust i have barely touching it and sending it in full carousel spin

Might have something to do with the continuous home screen scroll and 3d carousel ...

That is probably it. HTC should have made the wallpaper scroll until the carousel effect started.

Whats the resolution you are using to resize to?

1080x960

just found that out today. searched the forum to see if anyone knew and found this. Totally hate that carousel! it totaly killed my favorite and only live wallpaper i used. https://market.android.com/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture&feature=search_result
Is there any option at all to turn that BS carousel off..!?. (i did read through whole thread just wondering again) had speacial pictures of family on each of the home screens that meant something to me.

Use another launcher besides sense if you want wallpaper scrolling

Totally not understand HTC why disable this option.

Wallpaper cropping SUCKS on the 3D

Ok, really really hope that I am missing something obvious here. When ever I choose a wallpaper to set, it makes me zoom in WAY too much . Wallpapers that I used a lot on my Evo4G are now just 1/3 showing on my 3D. Is there something that I'm missing here, or what is the problem, and is there a solution? This is really the ONLY thing that is frustrating me about this awesome phone.
The new carousel feature makes it so wallpapers are static. And I dont know why most become so zoomed in.

You need to size the wallpapers to the phones resolution.

yep need qHD resolutions
I felt the same way about wallpapers on the 3D until I saw someone suggest HD Wallpapers from the market and this has been a good solution for me as far as wallpapers go. Lots of great HD pics and no cropping, you just select the pic and that's it.

Also noticed after a while for whatever reason, the wallpaper will zoom way in, and when you go to re crop it the size of the cropping tool is squared and no longer rectangle. A reboot fixes it and the wallpaper is zoomed back out. I suppose it could be the rom im using which Chogardjr3d.
Try wallpaper wizardrii in from the market! Great for setting pictures as wallpaper and automatically sizes it for your screen!

wallpaper set and save is a must have for any sense device. lets you set pics as wallpapers at native res with NO cropping.
Figured out today what may be causing the wallpaper to blow way up. Probably the same problem when the home screen gets stuck on 3d when you hit the back button from the camera too fast. Its the only time my wallpaper gets huge and when I go to change it the cropping feature is double the size as well. Only way to get it back to normal is open camera and back out slowly or reboot.

What would you like to see in an E3D ROM?

I would love to hear some ideas from you guys! I am planning to put out a Sense ROM for the E3D once we have S-OFF and, if you know me, you know I love users input and I do my best to make it happen. I actually have the ROM done, I just need to test it once we are S-OFF. If you guys have links to specific Sense 3.0 mods and such, please post those as well.
I actually have one very unique surprise lined up for my ROM, let's just say that it's better than using SetCPU So what would you guys like in a Sense 3.0 ROM?
Looking forward to it. I'm not sure if its possible but I'd love to see the app drawer modded so that after you launch an app, you go back to the home-screen instead of back to the app drawer.

And defiantly the speakers louder and arrows on the keyboard would be nice. Og EVO keyboard ported maybe??

That kind of thing would be editing Rosie.apk and I don't know how much work that would require but good suggestion.

This is a limitation of the HTC Sense BT stack. I remember a thread in the EVO 4G section about getting the CM BT stack working on Sense. I don't know whatever happened with that, though.

Sound and brightness controls added to quick settings (was possible with OG Evo) would be awesome.
If at all possible, enabling a long press on the volume rocker to change music track while screen is asleep (maybe port from CM?). I think that's difficult due to the HTC Music player being closed source.
Audio tweaks maybe, to increase sound output.
Dancing Droid on incoming calls, perhaps? (was used in kingdom or synergy on Evo, forget which one)
I'm sure I'll think of some more, but some of those would be pretty cool to start out. They are all things that should be included in a stock ROM from HTC, IMO.

That's pretty much exactly like I want too.
I want the ROM to not open a ton of useless crap that I dont want open. Like when the phone starts, why does Spiderman game become active? Why are maps always active? all those random little things that dont need to be open and are sucking up RAM for no reason.
I would also like the older app drawer, I think it might be the stock gingerbread "3d" app drawer. It was so smooth and looked nice. The stock Sense 3.0 app drawer is too unimaginative just sliding through different pages of apps.
1) Autobrightness adjusting app or simply dimmer autobrightness (except in direct sunlight, where it should be maxed).
2) Better caching of apps/icons in ram, so there's no lag.
3) Gpu acceleration of gui and live wallpapers.
4) Slow down or turn off carousel.
GPU acceleration, a semi-transparent Rosie launcher *stock* with the ROM, and the 3D AOSP gallery/3D app drawer (Cyanogenmod style).
Oooh also add in the new Market! People would be all over that, I love it. I've added it for convenience.

[REQ] screen rotate animation

I've seen this in the Photon and maybe a tablet or two (Asus I think). It seems to add a touch of class. Even the Palm Pre had a animated rotation when it changed between portrait and landscape.
Can this be added to a theme or even just adding to system files somehow?

Have your ever used a iOS device? If so think if the transition effect. Hard to explain it. I will tell you it looks much smoother and refined instead of the screen just switching to the proper direction

I know what you mean and there used to be an option in earlier versions of Android for a rotate animation. It wasn't very nice visually and was very slow but this was when my G1 was new.

Yes there is open your stock web browser and type about:debug in the address bar. Then go to settings and it will be located in all the way near the bottom called smooth rotate. Don't touch any of the other settings though.

Take a look at this vid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9ria1jwoOY&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Just before halfway through you can see it rotate as it changes orientation. Just a smooth transition whereas the htc phones are kind of an instant switch.
Thanks tuscani, so the stock browser is the only place? I'll check this out. It'd be cool if it happened everywhere like moto (can't believe I'm saying moto is cool in any way)

After you type it in the address bar, hit menu, more, and then settings. It will be added as an option towards the bottom of the settings page. I tried a few times and it was there. It's definitely cool, too

Problem with ADW EX on atrix

Sometimes when I go back to my home screens, the icons on my homescreen will appear with the bottom half under the dock - as if adw forgot the dock is there taking space
anyone encounter this issue?
Its normal it happens on my atrix and my droid incredible it must be an ADW issue
have never had this happen and ive been using adw forever can you post a screen shot

I think what he means is that when you go back to the main screens the icon or whatever is on his main screen appears behind the dock so it means that ADW didnt resize correctly..... and then once you swipe or touch the screen it goes to normaal,if i get a screenshot I'll post it i think its the same thing I get,ofcourse I've tried re-installing but it seems that its a normal little bug at least for me.....doesnt really affect the phone tough
Usually after you swiped down or up the screen goes back to normal....
Never seen this issue before and adw is probably my favorite launcher.

Unfortunately you cannot resize the widgets, hopefully it will be included in an update. I'm still using go launcher but keeping an eye on tsf.
In that in and out sidebar there's a density option, I think that might help. I could be wrong but try it out.

No resizing widgets or real custom option as others have mentioned.
It doesn't let widgets overlap each other, but it seems to let icons overlap things.

Lots of functionality to choose from and pretty stable too. My biggest beef is no landscape. However, I'm not sure why because I never use landscape unless I'm typing, which is certainly not in the launcher.

Yea thats the only downside but Im sure itll probably come in an update soon hopefully lol I did d/l it tho and its a nice launcher just got to learn a different way of doing things only real problem I have is if I long press the home screen it force closes it which sucks not a huge problem tho
Yeah you can resize Widgets and change the density of the apps
Edit: totally worth $16- it's butter smooth not once is there lag. It used to slightly lag at 213 density but after a recent update its silk. The best part is resizing apps and Widgets because at 213 everything can get tiny as hell. And there is landscape mode you have to manually change it.
Although this might seem like a flaw its due to tthe fact that tsf is not limited to a grid size- rather an infinite plane of room on a homescreen to put apps and whathaveyou
Totally worth the purchase
