Live wallpapers, any solution? - HTC One X

I wonder if someone found a solution to have smooth live wallpapers scrolling?

ATM Use a different launcher (like Nova or similar) instead of Sense is all I can see.

If you are rooted then flash this mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1656201
It solves the issue with lag between homescreens on processor heavy live wallpapers.

I flashed it 2 days ago but it doesn't affect live wallpapers.
It must be a cache display problem in Sense, I hope HTC will sort it out

[Q] Sense 3.0 Live weather wallpaper

So the new sense 3.0 live weather wallpaper is niiiice.. really like it however the animated part seems to only happen in widget locker(if using) and not on the actual page. But this isnt much concern, my issue is that the sound effect happens in the lock screen when i use an alternative wallpaper. So my question is is there anyway to edit that live wallpaper to remove all sounds?

When selecting the live wallpaper, choose preview and there you will have a settings option. From there you can disable sounds.
My problem with the live wallpaper is different... After running for quite some time it just freezes until I lock and unlock my screen again...
any ideas?
i installed the sense 3.0 weather but my weather did not change ! (i could have the lock weather widget).
when i apply the default live wallpaper which is that girl with sunglasses the screen goes black ! the pattern lock screen is black also.
i just mounted revolution 2.3.3 latest rom.

Scrap that, apparently there are no sounds for night so i couldnt tell if it worked or not, but its the sound is still on. anyone help??
I'm having the same problem with the sound. I'd unchecked the box for sound effects, both in the clock/weather widget as well as the live wallpaper but there's still weather sounds.
I've linked it to the weather live wallpaper however. When I choose a different wallpaper, the sounds do not come up anymore.
Is there another way to disable the sound in this live wallpaper?
Hi, I have the same problem. I've unchecked the sound effect in weather app and also before applying a new live wallpaper (weather) ... but the sound in still on, when I unlock the screen... anyone knows what's going on?
I have HTC Desire with RCMix S v 2.0.1 ROM ... tnx for any replay...
Still no solution? This is so anoying

I had this while trying "RCMix3D KINGDOM v2.0 Evolutionary Sense!". But considering that and the fact that it wasn't very "live" after a cycle of the animation i picked another wallpaper (a normal one). However! After having installed Virtuous Unity 1.29 i tried the live weather wallpaper out. It's still not very "live" after a cycle of the animation, but at least unchecking the sound checkbox makes it be quiet.

It is only meant to do one 'cycle' that is normal. My HTC Flyer is the same. it must be a battery saving thing.

Thanks for this - love the wallpaper but the sounds were driving me crazy, living in the uk its cloudy all the time so the wallpaper plays a sound like a bloody fighter plane whizzing past!

Live Wallpapers

Live wallpapers on Sense don't seem to work as well as they do on stock ICS or even the SGSIII. Whenever i swipe to change the homescreen the wallpaper pauses until the homescreen animation is done. This does not happen on SGSIII or a Galaxy Nexus. Also the included Phase Beam live wallpaper(ICS default wallpaper) does not seem to work, whats up with that?
its a fault with sense
some updates seem to have fixed it, depends on your carrier
or try a different launcher, they don't have the issue on HOX
Currently using free Galactic Core Live Wallpaper (search at google play) looks good on HOX.

background wallpaper not moving?

Hey, I am running into a somewhat annoying issue with regular wallpapers not scrolling along slightly with the home screen pages. The Live wallpapers seem to work just fine. I have verified that the resize prior to setting the wallpaper shows both the edges for the shift, but it does not do so when scrolling through homepages.
Is this normal for the Note 2?

I don't think the touchwiz launcher allows scrolling wallpaper. If you install and use the Nova Laucher it will allow that though.

Live wallpapers will scroll just fine in Touchwiz and static wallpapers will not. It's normal. Apex and Nova are 2 launchers that allow static scrolling wallpaper.

Cool guys, thanks. Was somewhat used to seeing it on older HTC devices and found it odd that my phone didn't do it.

HTC One Wallpaper Size

so I've been on the internet, and everytime I find a wallpaper from the HTC One, they're only 1080x1920 instead of the typical 2160x1920, which is the wallpaper size for the DNA and S4 and other 1080p phones (obvi double the width necessary to fill the screen), which means they can't be uploaded to Zedge without warping or letterboxing them, and it also means it could be hard to find wallpapers on Zedge if the One doesn't support 2160x1920 wallpapers. Whats the deal with the wallpaper size, anyone know?
AW: HTC One Wallpaper Size
The one wallpaper size is 1080x1920, Sense did not allow wallpaper scrolling atm, so you need an height of 1920 pixel and a width of minimum 1080...
one'ed
You can get scrolling wallpapers with a different launcher,also I am sure that Venom Viperx team will do them scrollable in Sense like they did on OneX,so better keep both 2160x1920 and 1080x1920
i have tried some launcher, but wallpaper scrolling still not working.

Same here I am using Apex and I tried all the settings but my wallpaper is not scrolling really annoying, before I thought I am the only one, can someone help what's wrong with wallpaper scroll
Did you try with ADW launcher?
Also can you uninstall blinkfeed with Titanium Backup?
Perhaps this app is preventing wallpaper scrolling with non-sense launchers.
Worst case scenario is to wait for a MIUI/CM/Carbon rom or Viperx

I had this problem as well when I first got my phone.
I am using the Nova Launcher and while I know it should work right off the bat there is an issue that needs to be tweaked. If you go into these scrolling settings you need to tell it to force the scrolling and then it goes to the normal action that we're used to.
i use 768 X 1280 pixel since there is no scrolling i get best quality with this resolution.
You will get better quality with 1080 x 1920 as that's the resolution of the one.
The resolution you are using is 720p which is still going to be good as at this small a screen the difference won't be that obvious.

Even with 3rd party launchers wallpaper scrolling doesn't work. The only work around I found was using this live wallpaper: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shirobakama.imglivewp&hl=en
But for normal non-scrolling use, 1080x1920 is the best to use.

HTC Live Wallpapers

Live wallpapers disappeared following Nougat update. Does anybody know how to restore it?
Anybody?
Here's the live wallpapers off the pixel phone for nougat.

I haven't tried pulling the stock ones off of marshmallow yet.
Thanks, I dont quite understand why HTC removed Live Wallpapers from their own app
