Any fix for scrolling wallpaper? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I've been searching around and haven't been able to find any solution to the scrolling wallpaper on stock builds. Custom launchers don't work, third party WP apps don't work, etc. Are there any build.prop edits that anyone knows about to re-enable scrolling?

Bump. I know it's a small issue but if anyone has any guidance I'd appreciate it. Thanks

Scrollable wallpapers are no longer enabled in stock ICS.
This had something to do with the Apple/Samsung lawsuit. The only 2 apps I know it works with are Apex and Go Launcher. Not swearing to it though. I think you have to enable it in Apex.

Not working on mine and I'm using Apex. Is there no way to add it back in? Use to be a couple lines in the framework or something.

Don't do it. Apple will sue you.
Use jellybean. It has scrolling.

Zeam launcher is sexy, however, I didn't know the non-scrolling was related to touchwiz, so I will now be downloading zeam.
Cm9 doesn't have scrolling lag nor does any of the newest cm7 nightlies... however there is a flashable to incorporate the smooth scrolling mod in development.
As for the reboots its the gapps that does it and you must wait for the phone to load completely before downloading andinstalling apps and if that doest help then you'll need to wipe data in cwm and reboot

Actually it has lots of lag scrolling up and down on contacts, in manage applications, and anywhere you can scroll through long lists. It's like it is sticky. But great for an Alpha. Seems CM7 is my daily now and CM9 is my toy.

Cm9? Or 7?
Cm9 is android 4.0.3 so a lot better than other ROM's
However some quirks such as high ram etc. Also there are certain tweaks other roms don't have ie CyanogenMod Settings. I'm not too sure but I have tw, cm7, miui , and cm9 backed up on my phone and jump from them on a day to day basis

Pay no attention to Biggies delusions, he runs his Epic at 2.0 Ghz with a turbo Nitrous afterburner and also wouldn't know lag if it fell on him...LOL. Everyone else but you are reporting that it takes more effort to scroll on CM9 and doesn't scroll a lot with a quick swipe.

So, back to that wallpaper issue....

Getting S Voice on the Epic Touch.

I tried it but my system app folder only has 14 megs if space and the file is 30 megs. So, anyone know how to change the size of the folder?

Not that I know of, I don't think its possible. You'll have to delete some stuff to make room. Things like the wallpaper APK's if you don't use. The touchwiz social things, stock widgets etc. There is plenty you can remove that you probably never use.

i kind of have to agree. its pretty much the same as voice commands already except there is a voice that talks back. however, the talking voice only works on occassions for me on top of it FC and/or lagging. and i've tried every install method possible, it just doesnt seem to like my phone. plus i've noticed it drains the heck out of my battery.

It was wise marketing/defensive move by Samsung. Now a sales person can say if you only want an iPhone because of SIRI you can check out the galaxy s3 as it has more extensive voice commands over other Android phones.

won't install on my touch using FE16 ICS. but this is the funny thing it installed on my Prime tablet!...What??
It installed fine on the latest AKOP build. I played around with it, I'm kinda Meh about it, its buggy as hell.

[Q] new touchwiz

the touchwiz ripped from the galaxy s III is pretty cool and a lot better then the stock one on our phone! i would use it for more then the one day if it work with the DPI @ 160 >.< .... what do you guys think do you use it? have you used anything else from the galaxy s III?
also could we flash it?!?

considering the fact that the gs3 is being launced with ICS, yes, you need ICS.

I downloaded the 4*5 one. I didn't flash, I put the lib file in system/lib and copied the system/app files, fixed permissions and reboot. I needed to make a bit of room in 'system' and I wouldn't bother trying calendar as op says it forcecloses. Launcher runs silky smooth though - my new favorite.

AOSP lock screen for LJ7

Is it possible to do that? What are the requirements or apks needed to have that???

I believe it's framework-res.apk (Not 100% sure on this one) and services.jar. Might need android-policy.jar, too. They're Smali edits I think. I haven't ever done it before, but those are the files you should need, unless Jellybean has added something new.
Can't believe they didn't include a lockscreen option, i loved it lol

http://goo.gl/OsC2g
Actually, I believe it's a Smali in android policy that needs to be changed from 2 to 1 (2 being the determined variable for touchwiz lock screen and 1 being the stock aosp one.). Samsung doesn't remove any aosp code when they overlay it with Touchwiz, they just add Touchwiz stuff into it.
I nay be able to look at it later but it'd be much more effective for a dev to do this. Lol

And that is why the OP details are always important.. Would have save a few clicks of the mouse.
See it on a few devices so unless someone is willing to port it over and test.. but the short search of ports looks like a TW base would be the way you'd have to go. Breaks the actual puzzle and all you'd get is a touch location.. Desire Z folks, sidekickers, mezmorized peeps, Evos.. failed.
Seeing how it's on the Galaxy S, maybe someone here will try.
Sorry misread that I will check into it

Not trying to be disrespectful, but I'd never would have suggested an app if the OP would have stated you were on CM10. Hopefully you can uninstall it and get back to normal.
Ask for a port, revamp your OP. State your current setup, details, and what you're looking for. It never hurts to ask and it never hurts to provide as many details as you can.
