I just tried setting an image as my wallpaper. The first time I did it asked me to scale/crop it down to where I'd like it to be. I did that, and didn't like how it looked so wanted to go back and rescale. Well, every time I go back and try to set it as wallpaper again, it doesn't give me the option to scale/crop it how I'd like. What do I need to do to get that option back?

I've tried from gallery, from long holding desktop, from going to pushbullet, I've tried from "Photos". Literally everywhere. Did it the first time but hasn't done it once since (asking for me to crop/scale/zoom).

Try in setting / display / wallpaper.

So going that way it brings it up and lets me zoom in by pinch zooming if I want, but it never brings up the little box that I can move around and scale the corners for cropping/scale as needed. It just says "Set wallpaper" at the top with a check mark to push and I can only zoom in farther on the image that it is.
(I can do the above in any of the previous mentioned ways as well, was just explaining more. Basically going through settings changed nothing and does it the same as any other way)

So I'm so sick of going back into settings everytime to change the brightness
Whenever I try to use brightness widget or PowerManagerPro Freaking OS changes the brightness back to what it was right away.
So every time I go outside I have to go to settings to turn up brightness cuz I can't see shot especially with screen protector and other way around or especially at nigh when driving and trying to look at the GPS and its just too damn bright.
There got to be a way to get powermangerpro or brightness widget to work on hero, its a such a pain in the ass plus it will save the batt too.
So how can that b fixed?

Ok so I have installed the Live Wallpaper packages in this order (extracted from this ROM....http://db.androidspin.com/androidspin_filedownload.asp?release=166&type=1)
1) Live Wallpapers Picker
2) Live Wallpapers
3) Visualization Wallpapers
4) MagicSmokeWallpapers
So on Home++ or Home when you click Wallpapers>Live Wallpapers, and then when you try to choose a Live Wallpaper (even one from the market) it will say "The application Live Wallpaper Picker (process.android.process.acore) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
Any guesses?
I have one. Did you notice the Native Developement Kit for android was released? Meaning, more than likely, the live wallpapers rely on a C or C++ backend written with the NDK. So, enough said, it probably *wont* work without a custom ROM.

Okay, accidentally clicked to set Launcher2 as default while getting around the infinite FC's and reboot the phone. Now the FC's pop up without the option to change the default Home launcher.
Any suggestions?
Flash again?
Okay, I bricked my phone. Is there a method to unbrick?
I do not believe there is a way to unbrick your phone if you really have. How exactly did you manage that?

Reboot into the menu where you flash the phone. Only option was hboot. didn't want to do that. So after it read the image, menu was waiting for me to click the trackball to confirm <Action> Yes. Instead, I powered off. Now it won't power on nor even charge.
Yeah, sounds to me like you definitely bricked your phone. You can ask around more. But I Honestly do not think you can unbrick your phone. Basically its like your phone has no brain now and does not know what to do.

Okay, turns out that I dirtied the battery sensor and that was the reason for it not starting. So, not bricked!
But still I can't change the default FC'ing from Launcher2. Any way to get into the applications menu to change it? Recovery Mode doesn't work. Just a picture of an exclamation point and the android bot.
Must I flash again? Dang.
Im not going to try and recreate this one but when it loads to the force close try pressing and holding the home button and see if you can get into any thing else, if you time the close button right you should be able to get to something else...thats if anything else boots up with launcher2 set as default...
This goes to prove it doesnt work on these phones...

Tried. The small box in the center appears, quickly displays a message saying something to the effect of, "No Recent Applications" and then disappears.
BTW, other background processes are running. Examples, I get wifi notifications, login error notifications (Gmail), and I can access these and their settings, but I cannot find a way to get to the Applications Settings to change the default.
regis_star: You should be able to reinstall the 2.1 from your SD card as per the original instructions and it will fix your problem. Granted it will reset your phone but if you want it to be usable you may have to do this anyways.
I tried searching but didn't find anything on it. I was wondering if anyone had made it where the names of my apps didnt show up beneath the icon, or if there's a setting somewhere in CM 5.0.6 to show/hide. I have a light wallpaper and it would be much cleaner without the names below each one.
you can do that in HelixLauncher (both 1 and 2 can do it) so you need to download that launcher; then in the homescreen, click on menu > configure > and there's bunch of options to select
You actually hit Configure...

Hi,
When i upgraded my phone to ICS, it used to set wallpapers as i crop them (at any size, any length or width) and it also appeared exactly the same size on home screen as i crop it. But now for some reason, that i dont know, it has stopped doing that and use the same method as before i.e. predefined length-width + zoomed wallpaper on home screen.
Is there any option or a method to revert back it to setting custom sized wallpaper?
Please i dont want any 3rd software to do this because i believe there must be some genuine way to solve this problem as once i restarted my phone and i got the desired wallpaper cropping settings. But now it restarting phone also doesnt help.
Please help me for this. My phone is not rooted yet. PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks!

Hey guys,

On my phone I use tasker to change my wallpaper every hour (if the screen is off). In settings>display>wallpaper you can select to have your lock screen wallpaper the same as your home wallpaper. Now, when tasker changes my home screen wallpaper, they both change. I don't know how else to get magazine wallpapers to randomly select from my own pictures.
Edit. I'm stupid, there are wallpaper changing apps so you don't need to use tasker, then use the setting option I mentioned. Ofc, these methods will change all your wallpapers, not just the magazine wallpaper :/
Just checked on my phone and there is a MagazineUnlock folder, have you tried just deleting and putting your own pictures in that folder?

Thank you, at least something
I copied some of my own pictures into the MagazineUnlock folder and they display perfectly on the lock screen.
Go into Wallpaper settings and at the bottom there is "album to display" you can check that MagazineUnlock is ticked or even choose another folder if you have another location you want to use.
Thank you, "Random change" was unchecked in my device so i was unable to see "Interval" and "Album to display" options. Now it works, thanks again ?
