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 am a happy EB13/Bonsai 3.0.0 user, with one exception:
Wallpapers selected from my SD card through QuickPic are narrow/static, and not the side-scrolling 960x800 pixel size that I've come to like.
The stock Sprint wallpapers selected through the stock wallpaper control remain wide & scrolling.
Is this a QuickPic issue, a Bonsai issue, or something else altogether? Are static wallpapers a setting that is burnt into the Bonsai rom somewhere, that I'm just going to have to get used to?
How would this work for a kludgy workaround:
1. Locate the Sprint wallpapers on the phone; and,
2. Dump my lovingly-prepared 960x800 wallpapers in that directory via a root shell?
<I'd have posted this question in the Bonsai thread in the Dev forum, but I don't have the requisite 10 posts yet.>
Ugh...
I am having the same issue and changing gallery apps did not help. This seems to be something to do with a setting in Bonsai4All...
I confirmed with the QuickPic developer that this was a ROM issue.
The issue is fixed in Bonsai4All 3.0.1.
:-D
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

Does anyone know to add pictures to the "Wallpaper Gallery menu"???? I use the stock ROM rooted which only comes with only about 4 or 5 wallpapers embedded into the Wallpaper Gallery menu however I decompiled the TwWallpaperChooser.apk and found there's waaaay more wallpapers than what the OS actually allows us to choose from... In the end I would like to have all the wallpapers shown under the Wallpaper Gallery menu. Can anyone help with this? Anyone??
I forgot if this was the same thread in the Q&A but if it isnt then...
Decompile the twwallpapers.apk
Goto res/values and open arrays
There you will find a name of listed wallpapers, add all the names of the wallpapers not listed.
Recompile and install to /system/app
M&S

The wallpaper gallery is an APK file that has the 5 wallpapers built into it. You could possibly open the APK with 7zip and copy the wallpapers into the right folder then re-install the APK with thew new items. This is theory, not yet tested.
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.
