Lock screen wallpaper w/ QuickPic? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Is there any way to change the lock screen wallpaper if Gallery 3D is uninstalled? Titanium Backup Pro won't restore Gallery3D for some reason, and it won't install from the Market, so is there any way to use another app to change it (such as QuickPic?)
Or would it be easier to edit some file manually?

This is the weirdness that I get without Gallery 3D installed. If I click the blank option on the bottom, it let's me pick from only the few stock Samsung wallpapers. If I click the Gallery option on top, Settings freezes and force closes. I have tried reinstalling QuickPic, fix permissions (G3D still won't reload from my Titanium backup), etc.
Any thoughts or ideas on this one? I can live with it, but it's annoying to know some folks are enjoying nice, custom lockscreens and I can't, haha! And I would rather avoid going the Widget Locker route if at all possible...

hmm thats weird man i dunno on that one sorry i cant be more help. you could always wipe and flash the rom again that way all the original apps are back then start over.

BLOWNCO could you post a screenshot of how one would change the lockscreen wallpaper with QuickPic? Do you go into Settings -> Display -> Screen Display -> (Lockscreen) Wallpaper or do you do it from within QuickPic somehow?

ADW Launcher?

Is there a specific reason why I can't see ADW Launcher in the Market?
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Should be able to, I have it installed from the market.

The search engine for the market is not that great. Try reformatting the way you type ADW launcher, or just search launcher and look through the list. At one time I think it was "ADW.Launcher" but I am not positive.
Its there if you just type adw in the search but there's so many friggen themes for it that its kinda hidden next to the bottom of the list. Great launcher...

i couldnt find it at first but it is definitely in there its just so hard to find because of the overwhelming amount of themes and stuff lol.

I agree. You'd think it would work well on an OS from a search engine company, but what do I know?

Fix the way the launcher is set up in the market search. It needs a new tag to differentiate it from themes. Whatever, I was just trying to help you help yourself.

This should work. It's actually named "ADW.Launcher" in market.
I have found it, installed it, but selected the default launcher, and now i cant get back to ADW no matter what i try. I have uninstalled and installed, and when i go to "manage applications", the only option it gives me is to uninstall. All the other options are greyed out. Any suggestions?

ya thats true, but whats the difference if the popup is shown on home or in the drawer. if u have many apps you can sort easily. for example u can put the shortcuts from folder organizer in the launcherpro dock. not in the main one, but on the side docks. anyway it would be nice to sort the apps in the drawer too
Maybe not what you're hoping for but with ADW Launcher you can have your apps divided into categories and you have buttons at the bottom of the app drawer to switch between categories.
Launcher Pro lets you hide certain apps from the app drawer so if you can hide all the stuff you don't use or already have dock/homescreen shortcuts for, you might not feel the need for folders.
Try Power Strip on the market! It's free
...and hasn't been updated for a long time
Mhm..
Folder Organizer looks quite nice, but are there other apps?
Because i hate the folder in the HomeScreen with LauncherPro! The folder icon itself is ulgy and also no animation..
With Folder Organizer i would be able to change this or?
The only problem with Folder Organizer is its permissions..
Your personal information
read Browser's history and bookmarks, write Browser's history and bookmarks, read contact data, write contact data
Services that cost you money
directly call phone numbers
Network communication

Why calling access? Why reaing browser history?
And then you have to pay for it? For spying...
Doesn't the touchwiz launcher have an organizable app drawer?
Smart Shortcuts is the best for me, just create shorcuts with launcherpro to its categories, really good, the best is know, i've search a lot, waiting for MIUI rom, folder is really iphone like !

Wow, how cool is that?
Use go launcher and drag 1 app onto another. That creates a folder. Very cool launcher!!

I can strongly recommend you Apps Organizer, it's not as overkill as Folder Organizer is and delivers nice custom-iconed folders for your launcher.
Go Launcher.

[Q] No status bar on lock screen

I searched but nothing besides launcher pro and widget locker which gave me too many fc's so im back at the beginning i want to hide the status bar on lock screen hopefully someone knows how to do this or know of a stable app that helps if not thanks anyway.
I don't know is this enabled on all rom's but on Calkulin you just need to scroll up on top of the screen and status bar hide (same thing to show),
For Menu bar you scroll up on the bottom and menu hide, you scroll down at (same place) bottom and menu show up again.
Hope I didn't misunderstood your question, and again hope all rom's have this enabled.
Take a look

Have you tried upgrading to Mik 4.4 and see if it still does? Could nand your current set up. Load up 4.4, install widgetlocker and run it on base to see if you still get FC's.

Hi,
I'm in the same boat as you, been looking for an answer but can't seem to find one. Id love to set some of my gallery pics without cropping them. It should be possible, the standard htc wallpapers are in system/customize/resource.
Anyone have any ideas?

You can re-size then with an App such as PicSayPro
Quickpic, off the market my friend.
Awesome app.
I've been using wallpaper wizardrii and multipicture live wallpaper. Both seem to work well

I hope Android 5.0 has an option to set a wallpaper without scrolling, i know Galaxy S3 has that since this wallpaper were extracted from it.
What did you use in the end to apply the a wallpaper without cropping???

wallpaper wizardrii, ugly icon, less than pleasant interface but it does the job.
Yeah, i used wizardrii aswell but when u now go from left to right on your homescreens there are these ugly black bars....
I didn't have a problem with my old Desire HD running android 2.3
It just selected the entire picture and set it as wallpaper...,,,done, no cropping!
I'm starting to get anoid with android 4.0.....
Where can we complain to make them updated the bloody thing and make sure we can have these selections again!?
Same as that I lost the ability to toggle on/off GPS in the scroll down quick settings menu. It's gone now in 4.0!!?! WTF!!
And Whatsapp doesn't show my contact Facebook profile pictures anymore in the Whatsapp contacts list.
There are serious problems still with android 4.0,,grrrrrr.

Exactly the same for me.
Thank you, this was what I needed..
I found wonderful free wallpapers on ssiphone.com but they don't need to be cropped (and I don't need the wallpaper to scroll)
Thank you to share the information
When you set the wall paper you can drag the yellow box out but still doesn't use a full picture taken by the camera.

Galaxy note 2 touchwiz launcher in all sizes w/or w/out scrolling wallpaper/rotation

Want to start off by saying I take no credit for this all thanks goes to blgblade in the Galaxy Note II forum go thank him and buy him a beer the original thread will be below where the down load link is.
Choose any size launcher you want with or without scolling wallpaper download it and use file explore of you choice to install the launcher. Then you will need to go to the Google play store and grab ultimate rotation control app. Now this launcher has page buddy and even though the rom I'm running which is Clark's latest doesn't have the page buddy option it did work can't say it will for all.
WARNING INSTALL ANOTHER LAUNCHER FROM THE PLAY STORE IF YOU ONLY HAVE ONE LAUNCHER JUST INCASE YOU MAKE A MISTAKE. MAKE SURE TO CLEAR YOUR DEFAULTS SO THAT YOU HAVE THE OPTION TO CHOOSE MULTIPLE LAUNCHERS.
INSTRUCTIONS: Download the launcher size of your choice open the zip up using your file explorer copy the apk go into system/apps rename your current launcher to SecLauncher2.apkback and then paste the new launcher and set permissions to rw-r-r then reboot and choose the launcher. For the rotation use the ultimate rotation control app and enable per app control and select the launcher and your done. Now as far as page buddy to see if it works go into system/settings/applications clear the data on the launcher plug in some headphones and it should take you directly to what the screen shot below shows.
AVAILABLE HOME AND APP DRAWER SIZES:
•stock/4x4, 4,6, 5x5, 5x6
•Home screen increased to 9
•Mixed size launcher(mixed home screen/app drawer
•Wallpaper scrolling on or off
TOUCHWIZ LAUNCHER DOWNLOAD please thank blgbkade while your there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1960039

edit: seems the only way to get it to fully boot is to re-Odin the MA4 tar...
