My understanding is that you want scrolling wallpaper...use this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.twistedapps.wallpaperwizardrii

Select the picture you want from the Gallery, press "Set", and press "Crop Landscape", and resize your wallpaper.

Scrolling wallpapers DONT WORK with the stock Touchwiz launcher, not even with these apps. Switch to Nova launcher and be free.

quickpic
I saw a recommendation for quickpic in another similar thread. That app worked for me.

[Q] Can I rotate between Live Wallpapers on lockscreen?

Basically I have wallapaper changer for when the phone is unlocked which rotates wallpapers every 30 mins or so. I was wondering if a similar app existed just for Live wallpapers ONLY on the lockscreen? I have loads of cool live wallpapers that I'd like to see be rotated through so I can appreciate them all.
Many thanks.
can you set different live wallpapers to lock screen?

Yeah course you can. When you hold down on an empty bit of screen it says 'Set wallpaper for: Home Screen, Lock Screen, Home and Lock screens.

Why would you not use TouchWiz? It's amazing.

[Q], can I make wallpaper non-scrollable ?

i.e. Can I just save a wall paper and it stay as it is when I scroll between different home screen?
I don't want that fancy wallpaper function. I just want the whole picture (I will make sure it's 1280*720) stay on the screen
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
My phone is completely stock and the wall paper does NOT scroll
Odd. Mine is with omega v7.0, which should be same with stock (in terms of home screen behaviour). If I put a photo as wallpaper from galley, it will crop the photo, leaving a black border on left or right when I switch to other home screens.
All I want is a photo on the screen and it stay the same in all home screens. Any idea?

You can do it with nova launcher in settings - desktop - background scrolling

Just download quickpic from the Play Store.
Choose an image you want to use as wallpaper.
For the resizing-option use Quickpic, not the gallery.
This way it works fine for me

Launcher app

Hey, I was wondering how do you add apps to the launcher at the bottom by the app drawer buttons the home screen? I took out messaging and internet by accident and now I don't know how to add it back, thanks

Just drop and drop when you are in home screen, so make sure the apps are on current home screen (I'm pretty sure I don't use TW launcher)

If you are still using the stock launcher, I would highly recommend to change it. You won't have to root just download it of the market. Best launcher for SIII is Nova. Try it, it will let you have 6 icons vertically on the screen and so much more.
Good luck

Question about the gallery.

In the gallery, when I tilt the phone, the thumbnails tilt with it making it very difficult to select the desired picture.
I managed to disable this in the app drawer when moving an app around but I can't find a way to disable it in the gallery.

If this has been posted before, I couldn't find it.
Found his today on modmydroid.net and thought it looked pretty cool. It free in the playstore and very easy to use and customize.
It d/l's as an apk, so you don't even have to go to recovery to install.

Can anyone help me wth making a new tile and where can I find the app drawer on here I do love the launcher
EDIT: Figured out the app drawer but still trying to figure out how to add new tiles
Long press app in drawer. Tap add tile. Long press app on home screen. Tap the pencil icon to customize. You can resize (1st). Then Change out images from your gallery or use launcher icons. Change background color. Or change from center to extrude if you want image to go out to the edge.
