I made upgrade my t989 yesterday from T989UVKL1 to T989UVLDE.
Problem is the live wallpaper and wallpaper which do not scroll in the picture screen. It stuck vertically. the horizontal wide image picture cannot scroll or to be taken into a wallpaper picture. Please let me know anybody know how to fix or how to downgrade to the previous rom.
Mine is not rooted. perhaps I need to wait to upgrade to ICS...
How can I save my stock rom before ICS upgrade? Please help.
Thank you
Root then do a nandroid backup.
As for scrolling wallpaper, use a different launcher that supports scrolling wallpaper like Go Launcher and ADW EX.

I had/have this problem too. I reloaded an earlier version of the stock ROM to get scrolling back. I went and updated to UVLDE again yesterday and my scrolling wallpaper in LauncherPro still works as long as I don't change it. You'll see now, regardless of what launcher you use, the selection window in Gallery is one screen wide. That won't change until the ICS update. So either revert to an earlier version of the stock system, load a custom ROM or wait until the ICS update hits Monday.
thanks and question
thank you for all who respond:rolleyes. I will try ICS upgrade first. However I am curious if there is any way to change stock rom without rooting?.....

I'm currently running Legendary ROM RC2. Love the ROM, but since upgrading from RC1 to RC2, the launcher on the home screen has changed from 5 buttons to 3.
Is there a way to change this back, or adjust the settings? I'd like to stay on the latest RC2.
What I really want is to change the Phone button to the Messeging button. Nowadays, I text way more than I talk now.
Any help or insight is appreciated.
I don't understand what it was about that but I think if you reflash it it will give you back the 5 icon launcher I'm not sure but why? Happend to me a couple times.

Go Launcher was removed. Just grab another launcher from the market. I use Zeam. You have 5 icons on the dock and it scrolls so you can have more.

No it wasn't go launcher... I remember it was the stock gingerbread 2.3.5 launcher but when I flash 2.2 it went down to 3 icons and it said 2.3.4.... so I had to reflash and it was back to 2.3.5

Ah...can't keep track of all these builds and all the launchers. Found remnants of Go launcher on my phone and thought that was it. This is why I stick with Zeam. It doesn't matter what launcher the ROM builder puts on then.

Have you tried using a different launcher?
I use launcher pro. You can download various launchers from the market & try them out.
Launcherpro has 5 dock icons at the bottom & are scrollable, I have three sets available on mine.
I like launcherpro but you should look around the android market & try some out, also be sure to play around in the settings for the launcher most of them will really do a lot of cool stuff.....
I've seen a thread on here about scrolling wallpaper being disabled with el29. Somebody posted modified APK, yet it doesn't seem to work, other than it allowing for.different dimensions in resizing. Most custom roms have it working, how do you fix it? I'd like to have stock el29 with wallpaper hack .

To my knowledge only miui doesn't have scrolling wp and thats only with certain themes.

Why would Sprint/Samsung disable scrolling on wallpapers?? That's stupid, now many live wallpapers are ruined since you can't see the whole scene.
I would like to know a good fix as well. Even knowing which roms have it enabled would be nice.
You dont need a custom rom to fix it. Just install a different launcher. I use go launcher ex and everything works great, including scrolling wallpapers.
I'd like to keep the stock launcher.
Also when I upgraded to EL29 the microbes live wallpaper went poof and was gone. Had to google it to get the apk to get it back.
Calk 2.8.1 fixed the scrolling wallpaper issue.
+1 I've tried everything to get the scrolling wallpaper back on stock EL29 without going to a custom ROM. I even pm's Calk to see if he could do a zip for that feature, but no response yet.

I like to use tw 4.5 launcher and even though it is custom, scrolling wallpaper still doesn't seem to work. Getting a custom launcher still doesn't let you properly resize the wallpaper, unless you replace the gallery apk.
I appreciate work by all the devs, but there isn't a rom out there that I like too much. Most of them make visual changes I am not fond of, or brightness settings. I know that both calcs rom and blazer have working scrolling wallpaper and are both on el29.
Am using unnamed now, since it is still very stable and fast. Had to disable updates via terminal emulator to prevent el29 from downloading and notifying me every hour. Problem with that is it also disables profile and prl updates.

Bump, anyone? I really hate that my tw launchers nor none of the gingerbread launchers work. I'm not fond of adw, lp, nor.go.
I flashed the AIO mod and it has working scrolling wallpapers. I think samsung disabled it when they turned on continuous scrolling through homescreens. It looks a little funny w/ some wallpapers to jump from screen 1 to screen 7 backwards.
Edit: make sure you flash the "preflash" zip too or it won't work.

Don't want to be "that guy" that brings an older post back up to the top, but if I'm wanting to stay stock (I just got this phone, I've had several other Android phones in the past and I don't feel like messing around with custom ROMS anymore)... there's no way to make scrolling wallpapers work again?
I use ADW EX and if I use "Wallpaper Set and Save" from the market, I can get static wallpapers to scroll, but that doesn't help with live wallpapers.
This is irritating!

Flash the AIO mod and then flash other packages to make it stock again. I did that and now have scrollable wallpaper on my story k build. The only modification I have is crt off animation.

Thanks for the tip, but you lost me at "Flash..."
Not that I don't know how, because I do... but I've had a Moto Cliq, Nexus One, EVO 4G, Epic 4G, Nexus S 4G... now this E4GT... my flashing days are done, I'm just tired of the hassle.
Okay i'm currently running Blazer Rom 4.1. And I really likr the rotation animation like the iPhone or ICS. Anyone know where I can find it and how do I install it?
What are you trying to find?
Transition? Use a custom launcher like Go Launcher Ex or ADW Ex

You know when you rotate your phone, it does some transition like the iphone do? And I installed Go launcher ex, I couldnt find where the transition located

Go launchers transitions are for switching screens and app drawer. I'm not sure about the transition your looking for.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
This is zip to do that for Calks EL29 rom. This gives you the cool fluid transition when rotating your phone. Assuming it will work here as well. Nandroid first. Not my fault if this breaks your phone.

Has anyone experienced the phenomenon shown in the two images below?
- My phone is unlocked and rooted.
- I am running LiquidSmooth v1.35
- I am also running Franco Milestone 3 kernel
It seems wallpapers will not behave correctly when my phone is in landscape mode. Anybody have some ideas?
I have tried "Wallpaper Wizardrii" which hasn't worked. This happens with both the stock launcher and the Apex launcher.
what is the resolution of the wallpaper?
That particular one is 1280x800. I set the wallpaper, just now, using the gallery "set as" function but while in landscape mode and it has eliminated the black bands on either side. However the transition from portrait to landscape is ugly (the wallpaper jumps around a bit before settling).
I don't remember it being like this in the past. If anyone has any fixes, they would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
I thought the last thing I did fixed it... but a few rotations later it was back to misaligned.
Same thing happens here on stock rom rooted using apex.

Unfortunately wizard or quickpic didn't work for me either.
Edit;
I was going to suggest maybe its some kind of resolution issue but this happens even using the stock provided wall papers and built in wall paper wall paper picker app.

I hate the new ICS wallpaper implementation. Especially, because I always turn off the "Scrolling Wallpaper" option. And I always have to crop my wallpapers to make them fit my screen :X
So this is ICS bug not launcher?

I dont think it does.
OP, i do not have this issue.
at the time of reading this, i had a wallpaper set to not scroll, and i enabled horizontal lock screen. i had the issue you were talking about.
once i enabled scrolling wallpaper, and reset the wallpaper (same one) i had full screen wallpaper on the hoizontal lock screen.
seems to be an issue with scrolling wallpapers, which also isn't an option to disable on the stock launcher.

Yeah your right forgot about that. Still though, I'm sure older versions of apex displayed the wall paper right in landscape, only since the recent betas it started playing up.

I'm pretty sure the stock launcher supports landscape mode. It happens when you choose Settings > Display > Auto-rotate screen.
Update: I just switched back the the stock launcher and it does auto-rotate AND has the glitch.

Stock rom stock launcher won't auto rotate for me. I'm sure the stock launcher actually supports it but stock rom doesn't and requires tablet mode or something for it to be landscape. I'm sure this is why people started switching to 3rd party launchers to use landscape mode.
Are you on stock rom?

I was wondering if anyone who has updated their nova launcher had any luck with getting wallpaper and live wallpapers to scroll on any ICS roms. I was just wondering if anything was fixed in the update to resolve the issue. I know Samsung took it out a while back. Thanks for the help.

I think this is a known issue that was supposed to be resolved soon (hopefully). I know it still works in Go Launcher.
From what I know, the recent ics stock based roms had this feature removed so its going to stay that way eventually. If you're on an AOSP type rom, your wallpaper will scroll.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
Nova doesn't have built in wallpaper scrolling. It piggy backs on the phones native ability, which has been removed from this phone since el29 gingerbread. Its not broken, it just can't work on this phone. Same goes for apex launcher.
