Good morning! I'm looking for a widget that just shows a (resizable if possible) live map, like a nav app when you haven't set a destination. Does anyone know if something like this exists?
I used a live background that did that? (I'll see if I can find it)
Thanks, yeah I did as well find a nice app for setting up a live wallpaper with different map styles etc. This is the one I tried. It's close, but not what I'm looking for. I want a widget that can cover, say, half the screen, split vertically.
Yip - thats the one I had - haven't seen a widget.
like this?

He said he has root, so extracting the launcher or the widget apk shouldn't be a problem.

I have a wallpaper that I REALLY want to use on my Vibrant. I just can't get it to center the way it needs to be. I use the weather widget clock, (Sense looking clock widget), and would like the prism to fit under the clock.
This picture was taken at Primrose Hill in London.
Any help or advice would be VERY GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I'm no pro but I'll see what i can do...
Take a screen shot of it on your phone with all your widgets so i'll know how it has to be adjusted. Then post that here.
Ok. But, my phone is not rooted. Can I still take a screenshot?
I'm not sure... I use a program called shootme and with that you have to be rooted. Dont know if there's something else out there that'll work.
Why aren't you rooted? It's sooooo easy to do and does so much.
Btw, can't you just highlight the picture and choose the part you want so that it fits to your needs? Just resize when choosing the wallpaper...

I almost always root my phones. But, I haven't really had any need to with this one. Can't think of anything I want that it doesn't already do. (Except screenshots I guess...haha).
No, that actually stretches it out bad. And, it makes the pyramid huge. I tried resizing, and it puts the pyramid right behind the clock.
If you have ADB working, you could enable USB debugging and use DDMS to take a screenshot.
I'm not the greatest at Photoshop/GIMP, but here's my contribution:

I used the smudge tool, hopefully it's not visible. It's exactly 960x800, and I used Fancy Widget as a guide (the one you use is paid and goes with another widget, right?).
Yeah that pic is amazing

I REALLY appreciate the help! The smudge work is good. But, the light entering the prism on the left is off a good bit. A would also like the prism itself a good bit smaller. I am not criticizing at all. I am thankful you went thru the trouble. Just not quite what I was trying to get accomplished.

Also, it would be really cool, (although I don't know if it is even possible), to still have the people at the bottom remain in the picture. It looks like they are paying homage to Floyd. Haha.

It is extremely simple.
Technically, you could simply create your own wallpaper. With the correct dimensions, each swipe would place a new background on the screen. That may take some time to figure out, but it would make it to where you wouldn't have to have a Live wallpaper eating up your battery, you could have a static image that just aligns itself perfectly.
If someone has tried this, and I'm completely wrong, do tell!

Just keep messing around with it... I figured it out first try didn't mess with anything else beside transitions. Just chose one at a time, starting with 1. No sarcasm was intended, im honestly trying to help you get it workin
its true this thing will kill your battery life! but its the only way i've found to do it. it is pretty simple my little sister figured it out. in settings choose "add individual settings" for however many screens you have. (it numbers the screens from left to right). then change each screens picture by choosing each "screen # settings" > "picture source" > "single picture" find the picture you want and voila
This app is driving me mad. For real. I've done as shown in those screenshots, but there's no scrolling between screens. It's stuck at the SECOND screen/pic.
What launcher are you using? And how many home screens?
Damn it, I WILL make this work!

What launcher are you using? Most of the home launchers on the Market have a setting to enable or disable wallpaper scrolling. Make sure Wallpaper scrolling is enabled in your home launcher before messing with the Multi-picture Live Wallpaper.

Old thread but had to say thanks and spread the word. No more scrolling wallpaper! I've been searching and searching, lots of other apps that do this but they eat battery, this doesn't! Take any 480x800 wallpaper and it will set it perfectly! It will also crop/resize for you although I prefer using Irfanview on the PC for that. Yes it's adware but ads only appear in settings. Paid version is also available.
Yes old thread however, try sslauncher, you can set different wallpapers per screen and lots of other things.

I'm sure there are other apps out there for this, but this was the one I stumbled across. Allows you to set a scrollable (or non-scrollable) wall paper without having to crop it with the Honeycomb wallpaper cropper.
Got rid of a lot of headaches very quickly.

I thought so as well at first, but I have the Transformer weather widget and its not as small and compact as his in the screenshot. So unless he found a way to resize - thats something different.
I'm curious as well what those widgets are.

These are from the Asus transformer. You can find them in the apps and themes section. I can upload the wallpaper, I think it is Vancouver.
Install the weather app as you would normally do. I used rootexplorer to make a backup of /system/app/DeskClock.apk and copied the new deskclock.apk into the same dir. The picture may not cover the entire screen in portrait mode.

I just select no scroll so the entire wallpaper appears and is not cropped. Scrollable will crop the image and reduce resolution. I believe exact is what you may have selected if a small version of the wp appears in lieu of full screen. Unfortunately i am having some issues with no scroll function, which i mentioned above. Some reviews of the app indicate similar issues.

I have tried every setting, tried adjusting the slide,and still it blows up the wallpaper. Unless someone decides to share what they're doing to make it work right I recommend using multi picture live wallpaper. Aside from having to refresh when switching orientation, this app is perfect for setting a proper wallpaper in HC.

When you said homescreen, I figured you meant the screen you have after you unlock, which is part of whatever launcher you are using. However, I do not know where the location of what you are trying to do offhand. I haven't used sense in a while.

It is inthe idlescreen_base.apk. You must use the M10 editor to get into the files.

Myself have it on my list cuase I want to add a 5th and 6th buton myself.

You're right, if there is nothing on it, it erase itself...
You'll probably have to go to something like Nova Launcher or same type...

If you remove quick launch buttons and put black wallpaper you get it.
There are surely many other ways of achieving this.

Apex Launcher is also very good for doing this. It has a lot of customization and you can get very specific with how you want things to look. I generally prefer it vs nova. It seems more clean, organized in the settings layout and to the point. You won't need a widget in order to keep your home screen clean and you can make it look just like OOS launcher if you were to prefer it's look and layout.
