Why does my phone save screenshots of my homescreen? It's always "the same pic" (it replaces the old one with a new so is always in the same order in gallery) It saves without the background image.

I like to use ADW launcher. Unfortunately I also liked to use the HTC Sense picture widget that displayed a picture and when clicked took you to the picture gallery.
I have not been able to find an app that satisfactorily emulates the HTC widget.
Could someone make one?
The only requirements are stated above. That it displays a single picture that when clicked takes me to the picture gallery. You can put in more options like a slideshow option or whatever else you can think of. As long as I still have it only display one picture.

I have tried this one. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get it to really take me to the photo gallery it just opened the picture viewer where I could only see the one picture in the widget. If I could get it to actually open the gallery where I could view other pictures and open up the camera, then it would be worth it.
I would also recommend turtle photo frame from the market. It does a slides with the widget that pretty cool. It has white and black bordered widget too which means it goes with about everything. Check it out.

heres something i figured out, that will probably suit your needs. i used launcherpro plus which lets you resize widgets, but also allows overlapping them. placed a 4x4 turtle photoframe widget, then re sized it to 3x4 then placed the gallery and video icons and resized the widget back to 4x4. clicking the picture switches to the next or i can click the buttons on the bottom to go to their respective apps.

This is interesting. I might do that until a better widget comes along.
Hi all,
I'm doing wallpaper application. I want to set own wallpaper for my home screen programmatically. But home screen has 3 view as left view ,current view and right view. Can anyone tell how to set individual wallpaper for every view.
I've never seen it done before, probably because the image for each pane on the the homescreen overlaps (so say you scroll the the next pane 480pix horizontally, the wallpaper might only move 200pix).
I think you can force Android to accept the non-default aspect ratio for wallpapers using an app like wallpaper set and save. So you could make an image with with the following dimensions: heigh * (width * # of panes), then the area of the background will directly correlate with the area on the pane.
Thank you. Is it possible to set wallpaper without scroll a screen. I need to display only one image in current view. bcoz when i set wallpaper, part of images hide in left and right side. So i cant view full image.
You just a static wallpaper that's the same for all panes?
Grab an image that's the correct resolution for your display and set it with 'wallpaper set & save', it's a free app on the market.
Look in the market for "multipicture live wallpaper". You can set each of your screens to whatever wallpaper you like. It also has various effects you can use while flipping through each screen. Fantastic free app!
I'm not sure if that's what you wanted but...

I finally found a live wallpaper that I find useful. MultiPicture Live Wallpaper allows you to set a different image for each homescreen. This lets you make better use of pictures of family and friends. It has other features, including using a folder to display your pictures at random, transition effects, and changing the wallpaper with a double tap of the homescreen.
You can set a default image and settings and then change the image and settings for each screen. If you want a screen to act as a slideshow you can set it as an album or folder screen and then set the selection order. If you have double tap to change turned on you can change the image just by tapping on the screen. No more opening a gallery app to show off your pictures.
If you use a home replacement that lets you disable homescreen background scrolling make sure you turn that setting off so that the images will change when you change homescreens.
This app does increase battery use, but I can still make it through a full day with my phone. YMMV.
Love this app. Many wallpapers on my device and never bored!
I've tried a half dozen wallpaper changers already and can't find one with the simple features I want.
1. chooses wallpaper from a folder
2. displays them randomly (can be every time I unlock or after a time limit)
"WallChanger" comes close, but the order is not random, it keeps showing the first few files in the folder.
Every other app either doesn't work with KF, doesn't override lock screen wallpaper, or crashes outright. I'm not really willing to flash a new rom and I'm content with Go Launcher (which has its own wallpaper system but it doesn't play well with KF). So does someone have a simple APK that can handle this?
I can't seem to be able to remove all the extra homescreens so I have to remove all the shortcuts on them one by one. I also can't seem to be able to make folders in the app drawer as any kind of movement on the icon immediately tries to place it as a shortcut on the home screen.
Failing that, what suggestions do you have for alternate launchers or has that feature not been properly implemented yet?
Also why aren't my Google photos restored from online backup showing up in the gallery app?

You can set alternate launchers as default without any issues (need to use navigation buttons instead of gestures by default but there's a workaround) on v3.16 / v4.13.
I use Poco Launcher and these features are supported in that.
The gallery app has a weird sorting order as well that you can modify in its settings, however, if you can see your restored photos in Google Photos, I would recommend changing the default gallery app as well. I use Gallery Go but I think Photos works as a default gallery as well.
