Hey guys,
do you know if there is a possibility to add my own pictures to the magazine? If not, is there any app in which is that possible?

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 ?

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!

Yeah i know. I don't like to use any other software then the built-in one. But in that case you can just flash some other rom or re-install the ICS stock one.....
For every app I install, a shortcut is automatically added to a home screen. It's not a huge deal since it takes a second to delete, but I'm curious if there's a way to prevent this happening and just have the shortcut in the app drawer? I cannot find anything in the settings to turn of the "feature".

why don't you check google play settings ? there is a checkbox for that (checked on by default)

Go to the Play Store -> Settings and uncheck Add icon to Home screen.
Duh... I totally forgot about the play settings! There I was looking in the phone/launcher settings. Thanks.
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)
Hi,
I am using MIUI 4.8.30 and I have two of my camera picture as my lock screen and home screen wallpapers.
I want to know where can I find those picture in the folders in order to delete them (so they do not appear as an option when changing wallpaper)..?
Thanks!
Hey guys,
So I just got myself a Vivo X Fold and I'm loving it. The OS feels so good but I was wondering if there was a way to change the icons ? Or even the launcher ? I can install other launchers but somehow can't find a way to set it to default. When I go back home it's still the stock launcher. I wouldn't mind it if I could change the icons but yeah.
Any help would be appreciated !
Thanks and have a nice day.
no and no.. no need to thank me, follow me for more tips.
This option only appears if you have created and signed into your Vivo account:
Go to Settings / Privacy / More Security Settings and toggle "allow alternative launcher". Make sure you go into the privileges for the new launcher and set it to autostart and go into battery and set it for high battery usage.
Hi, i just tried to do that with the launcher, what frcraig said, and it still goes back to the factory launcher. I created vivo account, logged in, allowed alternative launcher, set nova as default launcher and applied the battery savings settings, autostart, etc. Any other ideas?
actually i just went back in and unselected tap the home button to lock the system home screen and now it works!

Thanks a lot, it worked ! I can finally change my icons and launcher !
What alternative launchers out there support two separate screen layouts?
Or... like the stock Vivo launcher, show only one-half of the unfolded screen on the external one.

If I'm not mistaken the same place where the option to allow the launcher to be replaced is. It appears after you enable the first one.

Did you find an alternative? I'd really love to change the icons on mine.

Total Launcher is a good choice. Supports two separate home screens and you can customize everything...
