Panoramic home wallpapers - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it just me or does this phone really not support panoramic homescreen wallpapers by default? What I mean is so the wallpaper moves along when you swipe between the homescreens.

It doesn't. But there is an app already on google play that is for this phone and it works quite well.

Desktop in landscape?

Is there a way to get the desktop screens to be viewed in landscape mode as opposed to portrait mode?

You would need a launcher that supports it. (ADW, Launcher Pro)
I use Go Launcher EX to do this. It looks amazing. The only problem is that the wallpaper does not scroll. I wanted to use MultiPicture Live Wallpaper and a cubed transition effect to give my UI a 3D feel, but unfortunately the North American Note does not allow for wallpaper scrolling.
Just a heads up, you will loose the ability to use a lot of TouchWiz widgets if you change launchers.

[Q] Wallpaper does not fit Homescreen when resized

Hi there
When trying to apply a wallpaper (e.g. a picture taken with my SGS3 camera) to my homescreen I usually have to resize it via the gallery-app. But resizing lets the picture shrink to a default-form that does not cover my 5-homescreens. Therefore I always get some black bars on the right and the left side...
Any idea how I can fix this or how I can keep the gallery app from not resizing my pictures to the default-size that only seems to cover 1 homescreen?

Are u using any other launcher than TW? Or scrollable TW mod? one work around is using "gallery ICS" from market to set your wallpaper
Currently I'm using the Nova Launcher. Is this an issue? Will try to download the ICS Gallery and hope it works well with the Nova Launcher
***Update: Wow, it works. Gallery ICS can resize my pictures and they fit to my 5-Homescreen Nova Launcher.... GREAT!! Many thanks

:victory: The default gallery asks you to crop the picture since TW launcher does not support scrollable wallpapers. However its a problem with other launchers. You can either disable wallpaper scrolling in launcher settings or use this gallery to set full length scrollable wallpapers

i had this on the omega rom.
when selecting photo from gallery, have your phone in landscape and it will fill all screens. when its in portrait it only fills the screen you are on.

Am I the only one that the Google pixel wallpapers and live wallpaper do not work on

I downloaded the Google wallpaper app, and lube wallpaper from the internet and when I choose a wallpaper the image gets zoom in a it looks bad, and there also some lube wallpaper that do not work and keep loading, also scrolling wallpapers seems that it does not work with any app or launcher.

Just download the wallpapers and then use the Huawei gallery app to set wallpaper. Then you don't get the weird zoom.

Pixel 2 Live Wallpaper

Hi guys!
I'd like to know how I can apply any Live wallpaper for both Homescreen and Lockscreen?
Whenever I try to select the option "Apply on Homescreen and Lockscreen" it only changes my Homescreen's wallpaper but not the Lockscreen.
I've installed Google Wallpapers first then the Pixel Live Wallpaper I've found from apkmirror
com.breel.wallpapers_9_PP-6.0+_arm64-28_minAPI23(arm64-v8a,armeabi,armeabi-v7a,x86,x86_64)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk
Could this be an issue with the Poco Launcher?
Thanks in advance.
I found this hack.
1.open themes app and set any video wallpaper to both home screen and lock screen.(If you dont have a video wallpaper search how to add one)
2.Live wallpaper should set to both now

I actually tried that. However it was not working while I was on MIUI 10 Global Stable 10.0.4.0
I flashed HavocOS Pie now 'coz I've decided to ditch MIUI for a while for some personal decisions.
Thanks for the help though.
