Not an answer to your question, but you can use the Multipicture Live Wallpaper app and point it to any folder on your tablet. I like it because it makes the wallpaper cover the notification bar.
You can also set different wallpapers for different screens.

Im using multi picture wallpaper app mainly because the wallpapers that i like are too big for the screen & multi pic. WP resizes perfectly

I thought I would try Apex on my shiny new Nexus, and when I put it in portrait, I have a lot of space left at the bottom. Is there a way to change it, or is it just the nature of the beast?

I'll have to check when I get home tonight, but I don't think I have that issue. I haven't noticed it yet, at least.
There's another thread on this as well.
Here is an example... The grid stops... I am going to try increasing the grid number.

Is that tablet ui?
What is your vertical margin set to? Try making it small or none.
Yeah, Apex uses tablet ui as the default... Well I assume it does as I didn't change any settings. I fixed the problem though by changing the vertical margin.

I wonder why it isn't set to none or small by default.

This worked great for me as well, wasn't happy with the look of the vertical margin at all. Now it looks great!

So I flashed the 4.2 factory image, haven't rooted yet.
I like,
The smaller icons in the dock bar
Slicker graphics / icons
The clock is cool
The notification system, left-side = notifications: right-side = quick settings.
Gmail is much improved.
Multiple user accounts is a good idea.
I dislike,
Chrome is slightly newer than the current version in the Play Store, 18.0.1025465 vs 18.0.1025464, but they made it perform worse Sunspider before 1500ms ~ now 1641 ms. It is also no smoother than before, and still is laggy on sites like The Verge.
I only got to play with mine for a few minutes during lunch but I love it minus the bounce back on the notification/quick settings pull downs. It's just odd and kind of irritating. I kept thinking it was going to close itself.
I really like the new lockscreen. The hour being bold with the minutes regular text is really nice IMO. The placement of the owner info and charging % is also nice. I think widgets are kind of meh but not complaining about anything new lol.
My battery is very bad since the update. Anyone else thinks like me?

Overall performance on the home screen and lock screen has been worse for me. I manually updated and wiped dalvik and normal cache before booting...

The new lockscreen should be awesome but it's terrible. Only 4 widgets, what gives? Should be able to use any widget I want! And no more quick access to Google now?

What the story with Miracast, guys? Is there a button for it in the notification settings like there is on the Optimus G?
Can't wait to get home and update my N7...

Calendar, clock, gmail, and sound search.
I like how gmail is zoomed out all the way and then you can zoom in. Why not add this feature to the stock email app as well?

Pretty sure you're missing the Sound Search widget, it was previously only available for users in America, more people may be able to access it now but some won't be able to based on where they live.
I'm not liking the new clock, the huge bold hour makes it look lopsided, guess I have some kind of symmetrical ocd!
Post your Homescreens and their details
Alright, So, let's see those home screens!
Have fun, looking forward to seeing everyone's screenshots!

I couldn't find the original file. So I made a blank screen and cropped out my notification bar. It's from a Tab Pro 8.4. Hope it formats well to your note 8.

If you look at the stock wallpaper long enough you will find it is a rat climbing down a tree on the right side

Ok so I feel like a total noob here but I can't seem to find my live wallpapers. I have installed them but in the wallpapers tab in settings they are not there to select.
Can anyone point this fool in the right direction? Thanks, and I appreciate your time in advance.

IIRC if you have it set for the lock screen only it won't show the live wallpaper. You can only put live wallpapers on the home screen or home screen AND lock screen.

I looked for that option, used to be in the upper right corner, but it's not there anyone. Just have no clue on this live wallpaper thing.

As far as I can tell, they've separated the lockscreen from the home screen. You can set live wallpaper on the home by opening the lw app, but lockscreen is still a mystery for me. Pissing me off

I got my live wallpaper working by going through themes. I found a theme I liked and applied it...live wallpaper came with the theme.... after I went back in and just changed the homescreen wallpaper to my liking leaving the live wallpaper on the lockscreen
has anyone found any live wallpapers that actually show as options under ''My Wallpapers" in "Wallpapers and Themes"? I was thinking it might be some apps that need an update because of some new system change Samsung's put in place but... if no Live Wallpapers at all are being recognised then they might just be trying to scrap the feature?? we shouldn't have to settle for a theme's live wallpaper as the only way to get one on the lock screen....
Having the same problem been trying to figure it out for HOURS lol..

I use 500 Firepaper as my Live wallpaper and it does not appear in TouchWiz Wallpaper option. I see it in Nova and Apex launchers but do not have the lock screen option in those
Freaking annoying.

I've downloaded a few themes from the theme store on my s7e which have "animated" or "live" lock screen wallpaper, and when you go to the lock screen it's just a black screen, nothing.
Black luxury has an aNimated lock screen wallpaper. It's very nice
