I tried searching the forum for a while, but I feel I'm asking this question wrong and getting the wrong search results. Having now used root explorer to change my MMS to bubbleless and changed my bootup I now want to know if there is a way to pull my wallpapers that are on my SD card that show up in the Gallery app and put them in the wallpaper folder.
I want to know if i can store wallpapers in the location were if you hold down on the homescreen it pops up that menu for wallpapers and there is a sub menu with a section called wallpaper gallery but it only has like two wallpapers in it, but you cant see them in your gallery app.
I'm sure somebody will have a one word term for this method of wallpaper storage along with root explorer address as to were to stick them.
They are stored in the Launcher.apk. I guess you'd have to edit the apk and place them into it and reflash/install it etc

They are in the launcher but the launcher pulls them by name so you'd have to rename your wallpaper to one of the existing names then scale your wallpaper down and replace the small image as well. There is a smaller one for the prieview pane in the wallpaper chooser. Extract launcher.apk on your pc and look in the drawable- hdpi folder

Ok I have a few questions
1) What is the folder location of the system Wallpapers specifically in the ACS rom.
2) Is it possible to place wallpapers in that location to have them show up in the Wallpaper galley. <- I don't want to select them from my picture gallery, I specifically want to select them from my wallpaper gallery.
If anyone gets on my ass about searching; I SEARCHED!
Wallpapers are include with the launcher i think. Look in syndicates default launcher's(lp?) Apk.

I know that we have a stock rooted EL29 rom out there, but hear me out. I am hoping for a stock rooted ROM with fixed Gallery bug, since I can't seem to figure out how to get it working. The bug I am referring to is when TW on stock is simply does not allow you to have scrollable wallpaper. It is an issue to me since I use TW4.5 launcher. Every custom rom based on EL29 has this issue resolved, so I know it is possible.
I appreciate all of the work the devs do for us, but most roms are not my cup of tea as they make visual changes or adjust auto brightness levels to improve battery life, which make screen really dark and dull to me.

We heard you out but now hear us out ... post in the right section, thank you.
sigh, I am sorry, I thought I was in General
What gallery bug?
One where you are unable to set a custom wallpaper without breaking the scrolling homescreen feature of it. So like every screen will have the same wallpaper, not the scrollable version .

I believe Calkulin has resolved this issue in his ROM. Pull the gallery3D.apk from his ROM and push it to system/apps. Or you can simply use a different launcher, I think this is TW specific. I haven't seen it on any of the third party launchers.

Yea, no el26 or 29 based custom rom has is, but stock ones do. I wonder if doing what you say will fix it? I just like tw4.5 launcher, that's why I'm bummed.

Upload the image somewhere, long press the image in the browser, set as wallpaper, you have your scrollable wallpaper.

What about Live Wallpaper?
Did anyone else experience this after flashing the ics update? Is there any way to get it back? It just seems strange considering the ics updates/leaks from every other carrier do have the option to set a scrolling background on the home screen. Any insight would be appreciated

In Touchwiz this happened on the maintenance update. They eliminated the scrolling wallpaper, which carried on to the official ICS T989 update. Even though all the ported ICS roms from other phones/carriers have scrolling wallpaper, the official T-Mobile ICS does not.
I've heard you can download launchers that support scrolling wallpaper (never tried myself), but I'm a Touchwiz fanboy, and it really bothers me that we don't have scrolling wallpaper.
I tried to google search a solution, which I found this:
OK if you are having issues resizing the wallpaper in the gallery that came with the new ICS leak then I've got a fix for you. I tried changing the code of the gallary3d apk in both ucle2 ics and 2.3.5 gingerbread with no success. So I found a gallary apk file on the net for android stripped the code made some minor tweaks installed and bam I could resize wallpaper again. OK let me give you some info you need to know...
First you will need the apk file from the link below. And you may want to download apex launcher from the market and here is why...
1. Using Apex launcher you have the ability to resize wallper and wallpaper scrolls again as you flip thru home screens. Apex launcher is a free download from the Google play store.
2. With stock touchwiz launcher that came on the phone after you install the apk file below you will have the ability to resize wallpaper only the scrolling wallpaper as you flip thru home screens still does not work in touchwiz and since I don't use touchwiz I'm not gonna try to make it cause touchwiz sucks anyway.
3. With go launcher, tw launcher, MX home and other launchers on the play store I have no idea. Untested on launchers other than those listed above. So try if you want and report if it works on other launchers if you want.
I have tested this on my skyrocket and it is working. Also tested it on my wife's Samsung INFUSE 4G running gingerbread and it fixed her wallpaper resizing issue to. Also fixes wallpaper scroll on the Infuse using touchwiz and go launchers but that was on the Infuse only. WALLPAPER SCROLL DOES NOT WORK USING TOUCHWIZ ON THE SKYROCKET WALLPAPER RESIZE ONLY UNLESS YOU USE APEX LAUNCHER. Just wanted to say that again so I don't get 1000 messages saying my wallpaper still won't scroll using stock launcher.
Now one more thing if you install the apk below like normal just open and install and you still have a problem resizing wallpaper then try this... you must be rooted and have an app installed that lets you get to the root folders. I use rom tool box lite free from Google play but you can use whatever root file explorer you choose. Open up root explorer find the apk you downloaded below and copy it. Then navigate to the system/app folder and paste it there. Use rom manager also free from Google play to fix permissions reboot and it should work. But try the regular install method first. As I said this is working for me on both the new ics leak on my skyrocket and on gingerbread on the Samsung infuse...
Thanks to xcraxydx for providing a couple of apks that I needed....

This person uses a different phone though (SAMSUNG-SGH-I727).
Nova launcher will give you scrollable wallpapers.... and a little bit more of a ics look.
Hey guys,
So I would like to start themeing my ONE with cool stuff taken from MyColorScreen and I had trouble doing that :S
After reading some threads I understood that I'l have to use the Multi-Picture Live Wallpaper which is fine, but I couldn't figure what resolution should the pictures be and what Crop option do I pick in the application, did anyone try that before?
Guys, So I found out that my main problem is I cant get scrolling wallpaper on the phone even when trying other launchers, 3rd apps etc.. Is there a way to enable it?
Thanks!
