[Q] Organizing Widgets - How to ?

Hi All,
I have installed the " Minimalistic Text " app which added 13 widgets to the widgets page.. Actually I am using only one of these widgets.
Is there a way to remove all the widgets of this app except the one I am using ?
or maybe a way to put all of them in one folder ?
Thanks in advance,

To remove them long press and drag them to the "remove" bin that appears at the top of the screen.
I don't think you can put widgets in folders, though I've not tried; you could try long press and drag one on top of another to see what happens...

Go into Minimalistic Text setting > Global settings > Widget sizes and untick the ones you don't want to be shown.
To hide the widgets totally in your app draw you will need to install a 3rd party launcher like Nova or Apex.

How to fit wallpaper as static without stretched

I am trying to get some wallpapers to fit, when i view them they look good for the screen, but when i set them as wallpapers they get realy messed up.
I tryed alot now including apps that should resize them to fit etc.
the wallpapers i try to use is from here:
http://s700.photobucket.com/albums/ww2/aandrew1967/walls/#!cpZZ10QQtppZZ36
Only ones i get to work are the wide ones that are very rare.
Is there a way to fit the other wallpapers you see there, the tall normal ones ?
Hope someone can help!

I think I know what you're talking about. It's a problem with the way ICS and JB handle wallpapers.
I found that using wallpaper wizardrii or multipicture live wallpaper will do the trick.

I tested crop wallpaper from play store, and selected the part i wanted to use as wallpaper, clicked set wallpaper and the picture is still stretched out and don`t look like how i selected to crop it.
Something is messing up the pics by stretching them.
Also tested the first mentioned app and that one dosen`t work eighter.
Any more ideas i can try ?

Wallpaper Wizardrii is what you need. Press 'Set' and choose 'Crop Portrait'.

if all your looking to do is set a static wallpaper and not have it scroll with screen swipe then you can only enable this on a third party launcher. Sense has a permanent wallpaper scroll and thats why it stretches those pics for you. I recommend apex where you can set static non scroll option.
Alternatively, as mentioned by first reply here, multi picture live wallpaper will also do the trick so long as you set the source folder to contain the ONE wallpaper of choice because sense forces the wallpaper to change automatically to another on screen swipe. If you only have one in the selected source folder, it should just swipe to the same paper of your choice. I may be wrong.

Sorry that was also a no go..
Must be something that stopping me to crop the pictures, could be some function in my ROM or ST(suite Tools)
Not sure how i should solve this, maby reflash without Suite tools.

I also use apex launcher with wallpaper option set to fixed when I want my wallpaper not to scroll

[Q] Live Wallpapers and custom Roms

I am needing help setting live wallpapers on my lockscreen. I am running Jedi-x 16 Rom with Perseus-alpha35 kernel. Prior to installing the custom Rom everything worked fine. This is what happens: I long press on the screen, select "Set Wallpaper" then "Home and Lockscreen" then click on Live Wallpapers, then I get a message stating "TouchWiz Home has stopped." If I try setting it via Settings I get the message that "Settings has stopped." Now if I only chose to set a live wallpaper on my homescreen, it works fine and I am able to do so.
I have tried numerous times to remove LiveWallpapersPicker and reinstall different versions by using Root Explorer, moving the apk file to /system/app, changing the permissions rwx-r-r and rebooting.
Has anyone else ran into similar situations with custom Roms or have any advice for finding a solution?

Maybe try setting just for home screen possibly might fix your problem!!
Not too sure if you, can run a LW on the lockscreen!!
If I'm wrong then someone can correct me on that comment!!
I don't use live wallpapers because they use to much battery anyway! :what:

What I would like to happen is have the LW set for both the lockscreen and homescreen. It is currently set for the home screen. Live wallpapers can be set on the lockscreen. Prior to installing this Rom and kernel I had one set.

Oh ok. Well what might be stopping it from your response. Sounds like it's the kernel causing it not to work like it was B4!

Change Lockscreen wallpaper on Stock OOS with a different launcher

Hey all,
I have searched for this to no avail. Does anyone know of a way to change the lockscreen wallpaper without using the stock OOS launcher? I have tried it while rooted in different ways and it doesn't seem to work. I know I can install a custom ROM and be on my way but I wanted to know about stock. Thanks!

Open picture in Gallery app, three dots in top right corner, set...

I just freeze the app and unfreeze it when i am done

I used an app I usually use to crop photos precisely when setting wallpapers, it turns out to be able to set lockscreen wallpaper as well. When you hit apply it asks lockscreen or home screen pretty simple.

[SHARE][NO ROOT]Latest Xperia Apps

Hello!
So, here you go: [CM/AOSP][NO ROOT]] Latest Xperia App for non stock ROM
There says about CM/AOSP, however, I've installed Launcher, Music and Weather without any problems on stock Crapwiz 5.1.1 and are running flawless. The other apks should work as well.
I didn't try on CM/AOSP rom, but should work since are meant for that.
There aren't any screenshots, but there's a post with a YouTube video showing the apps: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71689269&postcount=1051 .
PS: Xperia launcher is so smooth and it's ram usage is similar as TW one. It has some customization options too, like icons support, double tap anywhere on empty space on homescreen to turn screen off.

Launcher is awesome!
Too bad there is no option to set app launch animation, you can't get system animation.

Personally, i dont care about animation, but i would have wanted vertical scroll.
Even so, the launcher is awesome.

Yes vertical scroll would be awesome, sometimes i open app drower and start scrolling verically lol, but every other aspect of it is awesome, i like how you can set icons bigger, are you using it?
