wallpaper same on all screens? - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to have the wallpaper fixed so its the same on all home screens rather than scrolling along it as home screens change?

Guess the lack of reply means it can't be done (either that or I haven't searched hard enough)

[Q] Lockscreen Wallpaper Shifted?

Hi,
Currently using a HTC desire on cyanogen. I'm using 3 home screens with Launcher pro plus. since i have 3 screens the wallpaper will shift depending on which screen i am on. For example if i'm on my most left screen, the screen will focus on the left on the wallpaper. if i'm on the middle , the focus will be on the middle of the wallpaper. and so on..
my question is, how come when i'm at my lockscreen, the focus is on the right portion of my wallpaper even if i turned my screen off on the center home screen?
i've tried switching wallpapers and that doesnt seem to work.
i had the same problem but it was fixed after applying the wallpaper again
Same thing on Samsung Captivate also w/ LauncherPro (free)
Has anyone found a viable solution for this? Reapplying the wallpaper doesn't resolve this. Rebooting works but a more elegant solution would be nice. Not even sure how it shifted to begin with.

Multipicture live wallpaper question.

I did a search and pulled up nothing. My question is, is there a way to just set one wallpaper to work on all screens, so when you set scrolling wallpaper, it just scrolls to each side of the wallpaper??? The it's set up now, it puts a full wallpaper on each screen and stitches them all together, which kind of looks weird when you switch between them. If this can't be done, is there another app I can use or another way to get full screen wallpapers??
Anyone know.
Help someone???
can you re-explain your question.. im not understanding what it is that you are asking..
I have a live wallpaper that I have set.. and as I scroll the screen it stay right where it is.. no matter what I scroll to.
Yes you can. You need to disable transitions or animations. Have a dig through the live wallpaper settings and you should be able to find it.

Dig through the live wallpaper settings? Which ones? The ones in multi picture or are there some other wallpaper settings that I am unaware of? I am pretty sure that the OP was asking about getting a static wallpaper to span across all screens while also having the proper display resolution in both portrait and landscape mode. Something that is still evading me/us to this very day.
I really wish someone would come up with a fix for this.

That is what I am asking. When I set a non live wallpaper it wont allow scrolling wallpaper.
It sets a wallpaper for each screen and stitches them together.
I had same problem. Using ADW Launcher, went to adw settings and un-checked "allow wallpaper scrolling". Now just one wallpaper that my home screens scroll across.

Tried that, and then it doesn't scroll at all.

[Q] Separate live wallpapers for each screen

Is this doable?
Not talking about separate wallpapers, but separate live wallpapers for each screen.
and while we're at it, can there also be a separate live wallpaper for the lock screen, different from the one on the main screen?
highly unlikely due to the background being a single image and the screens moving on top of this
Would like to have that too, but i doubt that any launcher will support it.
I automatically change my LWP with Tasker+Easy Profiles+Root when music is playing.
But unfortunately scrolling through homescreens can't trigger any task...
Besides, the change/transition would most likely be laggy. Some LWPs even have a loading screen before they launch.

Issue With Live Wallpaper on Touchwiz

Hello and Happy New Year.
I have recently wanted to try using a live wallpaper on my GT-N7000 running 4.1.2 and Touchwiz (I am on Philz kernel if that matters)...
I note that when I use the settings page for Display | Wallpaper there are 3 choices: Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Both. If I tap Home Screen choice, I get 3 options: Gallery, Live Wallpapers, and (non-live) Wallpapers. I get the same 3 options if I tap the Both screens choice. But when I tap Lock Screen only choice, I do not get the option for Live Wallpapers - only Gallery and (non-live) Wallpapers.
So it seems I can have a live wallpaper on the Home Screen only or on both Home and Lock Screens simultaneously. Of course, what I want is not available here. I want a static wallpaper on my home screens and a live wallpaper on the lock screen. Seems like I can't get there from here.
So is there a way to get the setup I want? Thanks.
a year later, i share your same frustration. i even tried setting the live for "both" and then just setting something else for "home". that caused the lock screen to revert to a default non-live wallpaper.
how dumb.

Wallpaper Set Issue

Some of you may be familiar with my typical home screen layout and custom wallpapers that I make on my PC. Well, I'm now experiencing issues with applying wallpapers to my home screen. Everything is slightly off, and not aligned properly. It appears that the phone is "zooming in" the wallpaper as it sets. Like, I'll have a border separating the notification bar area and my home screen but when applying the wallpaper that border is moved further up into the notification area. Like I said, the wallpaper seems to be "zooming in" as I set the wallpaper to my home screen.
I'm using Nova Launcher Prime. 12x12 grid. No dock.
I tried using Apex Launcher and ran into the exact same issue.
I've restarted the launcher. Restarted the phone. Used different photo apps to apply the wallpaper to the home screen. Nothing has fixed this. I'm not sure what else to try. If anyone here has any idea on why wallpapers are distorted (zoomed in a bit) as I apply them to my home screen, please help. Thanks!
ETA: Added two screen shots with a specific wallpaper that I found online to help show you what I'm talking about. When I see the preview of what setting the wallpaper will look like, it doesn't apply that way after setting the wallpaper.
Sweet, baby Jesus! I found the solution!
Please let this be a PSA for everyone who may run into this issue. The culprit was that stupid "Motion Effect" option while using the One UI launcher. You have to make sure when switching back to it from a third party launcher like Nova that you choose the "always" option so that it's your default launcher (stock launcher). Then when you do that and choose to apply a wallpaper, you'll see the "Motion Effect" option right under the image. Uncheck that stupid thing and your wallpapers will not longer "zoom in" like they did before.
Now, everything is lined up as it should!
