I'm currently using GEL and just have one homescreen/pane.
When I set the wallpaper to a custom image, it seems to be setting my home screen to the left most pane and not centered, like when I choose one of the default wallpapers that comes with the launcher. Any ideas?
The alternative I found was to add widgets so that I can get 5 home screens, and then the default homescreen is finally centered. But I feel it defeats the purpose.

Anyone know how to disable scrollable wallpaper?
Thanks.
Can't
I'm sorry I have looked into this myself and found in the htc sence launcher you cant!!!! Although if you crop your image to fit the screen exactly on your PC, your phone wont be able to scroll the wallpaper so it will look like it isn't moving!
Not sure about on Sense as I'm running MIUI at the moment, but I know it's an option on Apex launcher.
Apex settings -> homescreen settings -> wallpaper mode if you're interested.
Hi,
in the last few months I really start to like the theme with a static wallpaper (or multi wallpaper) where there is just everything and you use uccw/transparent icon on the phone.
I'm then having problem because often is hard to understand where a widget will be really positioned or is hard to put an icon in the right position (maybe you want to add a counter to it and the counter is not matching the icon in the wallpaper).
I'm using nova launcher (not sure why I choosed that, apex was a little bit laggy scrolling wallpaper and...ss launcher I didn't know about it but right now I love it but because I purchased nova, let's keep nova).
What I'm then wondering is if there are template with line where you can exactly understand where the grid of nova are (7x7, 6x7 and so on) or if someone has some suggestion on how to do that.
I already tried to just craete a pics in photoshop with the resolution of the htc one x and splitting it in 7x7 grid but, not sure why, my grid isn't matching the real grid of the nova homescreen (maybe because there is no notification bar on the top?? don't know).
Any suggesiton or premaded template around (tried to google it but without any good result).
Thanks,
Massimiliano
What you could do I guess, is filling each grid with random apps, screenshot it and open it up in Photoshop and draw a grid based on that. And I think grid size changes if you enable/disable statusbar and dockrow.
And in nova homescreen settings there is width and hight marginal options witch affect grid size aswell.
Perhaps u can make two full size icons with different colours and place out, might make it easier drawing the grid if icons have straight edges.
Edit: take a screenshot while moving a widget, that will show the grid.

Good idea, I'll try it thanks
Phone: AT&T I747 GS3.
Rom: Stock 4.1.1, Rooted with stock kernel
Addons and extra's: I de-bloated the phone with mrRobinson's Ashaman v2.30 de-bloating, installed the 23 toggle mod, tether mod and installed Apex Launcher Pro for a more standard pure JB look.
As far as running Apex Launcher but I doesn't seem to matter if it's that the stock TW launcher, I get no live wallpaper menu if I long press the home screen. I've tried both ways.
So what I've got going on is that I don't have the option to set the standard live wallpapers via long pressing the home screen. Doesn't matter if I long press or go into system and access wallpaper threw there.
How I noticed was I bought the 3d Parallax live wallpaper and I can't set it via the live wallpaper manager thingy you get if you long press the home screen. All I get for a wallpaper selection is the normal "wallpapers" my 3 galleries from my camera's I have installed and the Apex Wallpaper tool, no "Live Wallpaper" menu.
Now if it's a live wallpaper I can access THREW my apps drawer, I can use it but if it's one that relies on me being able to set it from the long press option or the system option, they don't display, I can't see them because the standard live wallpaper selection menu isn't there in my ROM.
Thoughts? I know it's something I did, I just don't know what.

Long press empty space on display, pick wallpaper on lower left, it shows 2 wallpapers and you toggle between lock (L) and home (R)

I tried and could not for the life of me find where to set lockscreen wallpaper, I can only find the option to change desktop to whatever I wanted.
I CAN however, change the lockscreen background to one of my ugly photos that I took, but not the stock wallpapers if I use gallery to set it.
The main thing I really wanted to do is to change the lock screen wallpaper to a dynamic wallpaper called Starfield 2, it is a black background with start wizzing by type of wallpaper, and more likely than not it would be saving energy on an AMOLED display. Plus, they just looked so much better than a standard bright and colorful wallpaper that never changes.
I dont think u can do live wallpapers on the lockscreen

I uninstalled the stock gallery already so I can't check there, but if I go into my gallery (QuickPic) I can select a picture, then go to the top right three dots, "Use as" and then I have to option to set it as lockscreen picture.

not on oneplus 3, but you can do that easily on Sony Xperia Z2 and other products (I got Z2 and Z4 tablet here, both does that just fine).
Does anyone know, how to change wallpaper without stock launcher?
Or better, how to set system to use the same wallpaper for lockscreen as my launcher?
I know that this is an old thread, but I'd like to see on lockscreen the same wallpaper I set on the system.
Is there a way on OOS 3.2.6?

Anyone found a solution? I want to use the google wallpaper apps daily backgrounds but it can't apply lockscreen wallpapers, only homescreen. Can we just delete the lockscreen wallpaper with a root explorer?
I have a T9 Android box and cant stand the default launcher and just layout of it.
I am wondering if anyone has or is using a launcher for their Android TV box and would recommend it. I tried a couple like Nova and ATV but found I couldnt use a wallpaper and have it resized properly as the launcher would zoom into it and distort the wallpaper. If I viewed the wallpaper through the Gallery app or even within the launcher, the picture was centered and looked amazing but once it was set to the home screen the image became zoomed in and completely distorted.
Anyhow, Id love to simply change the GUI of the Android TV box I have and would appreciate any recommendations and potentially a way to fix the wallpaper issue I was having.
