Anyone have a problem with wallpapers downscaling? This happens constantly with mine.I set the wallpaper, it sets the screen, I use any app, return to home screen, and all of a sudden my wallpaper vertically downscales to where there's like an inch of black space on the bottom of the screen. The only way to get it to scale properly again is to turn the phone and let the screen rotate,but that fix only lasts until I open an app again.
I have tried multiple sized wallpapers, have tried setting with the default crop, with wallpaper wizardri, and wallpaper set and save but it still always does this.
Anyone else have this issue? Its really annoying.

Are you using a third party app to set wallpapers? Had a similar prob with one on sgs2

I've tried default and third party. Having the same issue no matter how I try to set one.

Don't know what to suggest... seems like a random glitch. Factory reset maybe?

Will do. Gonna give LiquidSmooth ROM a try anyway. Hopefully the issue is not present there.
Searched the forum and found no answers! It happened the other day - my homescreen turns landscape - but I can't get it to happen again. Any ideas?! Also, anyone find that this XDA Premium HD app FCs a lot?

Hi!
landscape mode works only in some apps. You will not get landscape mode in homescreens, unless you have a custom ROM installed and have LeeDroid Tweaks.

But it actually happened yesterday! I had landscape homescreen with all icons positioned on right of the screen and widgets resized accordingly...
[EDIT] I am running custom ROM Android Revolution HD

Hello, i have a non-rooted phone and also got it a copple of times.
On the home screen i suddenly had a landscape screen.
Once turned back to portrait, it did not go back to landscape again.
After searching i found a forum message about an app called 'Rotate'.
this app can force autorotate, so the landscape also works on the homepage.
1 problem, you can try it some time and then you have to pay for it (only $1.99)

If your using apex launcher you can go into advanced settings and pick auto rotate or landscape only, if your using stock sense then I havn't got a clue

HTC Sense doesn't allow the homescreens to rotate at will, generally the home screens are locked into portrait viewing.
I have seen screen shots of the phone homescreen in landscape, I think it's just a glitch... as you said, it's reverted back now and won't do it again.
Unless forced with an app etc...

HTC Sense doesn't allow the homescreens to rotate at will, you have to edit the rosie.apk to get it to work as you've already said.
So it doesn't work as standard.
I have a car dock for my One X, and when it sits in the car dock it is also possible to see the homescreen(s) in landscape mode.
Here is an example:

So it is possible and I find it strange that HTC doesn't allow it when using the device normally.
Rotate HTC 1 X homepage
I found this app on the Play Store " Rotation Locker" on another forum. It has worked for me but try it your selves.

Thanks works just perfect and now its free

This app works but...
Hey...even i was searching for some app or mod through which i can get my homescreen in landscape mode while the phone rests in my "new KiDiGi desktop charger" :silly:
So i came across the apps mentioned above.... "Rotation Locker" and "Ultimate Rotation Control"
Rotation locker was a free app but it did not work fully...like the lock screen used to be in portrait only...and the app sometimes flickered between portrait and landscape mode...so i uninstalled it....
Ultimate Rotation Control is amazing...it works perfectly for me...the only issue that it is a 7-day trial after which i would be asked to pay $2 (almost Rs.110 here in India)...
i would not mind paying money to the developer...but since i have a rooted phone with Android Revolution HD 9.4.1 ROM, i was just thinking is there any custom tweek developed for this ROM which can help me get rid of these Third party apps for rotation control....
Does anyone know about any such tweak for rooted HTC One X??
I have another query...i want to know if there is any tweak/app through which i can get my screen to wake up when a new SMS/Whatsapp/mail comes?? basiacally to wake up the screen in case of any notification...
Thanks a lot in advance

I had an idea today for my home screen. I like to keep it simple and usually only use one page. Is there a way to make the one page stay stationary but be able to have the wall paper scroll?

I've been using that for ages and I checked it out deeper and there's no option. I tried searching for what I'm looking for but am having no luck.
It seems feasible no? To have one home screen and still be able to scroll the wallpaper? Maybe it's not. I can only hope.
hmm... check THIS out.
Every time I try and use the pattern locksscreen it just looks too small and the circles look squashed.
It was fine on oaspx.
And its also fine on the pattern settings when you set it to be in with.
Is there any way of fixing it?

By the way I mean the green circles that say you've got the right pattern, not the small dots..

Are they layered on top of each other or anything? Or just closer than you're used to? It may just be a change in design. Or is anything else in the UI smaller? If so, that could be a DPI change.
There's just jagged edges on the circles so I'm guessing it's a resizing issue
It's fine when im setting the pattern so I don't know why it's not the same on the actual lock screen

You probably need to take that up with the ROM dev then.
I can't figure out, for the life of me, how to set the wallpaper without it zooming in so far for everyone. You used to be able to fix it using quick pic. There was the same problem on the M7. Am I missing an option to turn off the cropping of wallpapers?
