Dual wallpaper? - Xiaomi Mi MIX Questions & Answers

Hi i'm wondering if any body knows if it's possible to have two different wallpaper for each launcher home screen for example.
the mix has the miui launcher and i installed nova launcher and i have a wallpaper on the nova that doesn't look good on the miui home screen, this is why i'm asking if any body knows and point me on the right direction. thank you

As far as I know, when you set a wallpaper in a launcher and switch launchers, the wallpaper you set will be kept; in certain launchers there's a default wallpaper that overrides what you've set on the first launch, but apart from that, in my experience when a wallpaper is set all launchers will use that wallpaper. It's not that big of a hassle to switch wallpapers manually every time you switch launchers, is it?

You are right that is not a hassle to change it but I would like it to be automatic, ho. well

Help on Nova prime launcher

Hi.
I am facing issue with Nova Prime Launcher.
Below are the two screenshot. One on TW and other on Nova.
My question is why nova is hiding sides of my wallpaper. A big area is hidden which makes my wallpaper ugly.
Any idea how to correct wallpaper alignment on Nova.
Regards
Mani
Hmm...seems like the wallpaper on TW uses only the visible section of the screen, whereas the wallpaper on NOVA uses the entire screen resolution thus looking zoomed in.
I suggest you use Wallpaper Wizardrii to play around with wallpapers
You'll get tons of options to help you keep the wallpaper the way you want it.
I hope this helps!

[Q] VIRE Launcher wallpaper location

Can anyone tell me where to locate the default wallpapers which VIRE Launcher uses please?
I wish to have a custom wallpaper, but want it 'fixed' so that it is the same on all homescreens, not scrolling and therefore only showing part wallpaper on each.
I cannot see the option in VIRE Launcher settings to set the option of scrolling homescreen wallpaper or not, so, seeing as the default ones that VIRE provides are fixed I would like to source them on the internal storage and overwrite one.
Cheers

KLWP & Nova Launcher - Wallpaper Scroll Issue

Hi guys
I am reaching out to you guys because I haven't found an answer in the world wide web and probably some others would have the same problem as I have.
I recently installed KLWP app to customize my wallpaper. Problem that I am facing is that with no used Launcher (Nova, Apex, Evie) I can make my wallpaper scroll. Option is always on and I also checked that I have the same amount of pages in KLWP and my home screen. Not even with the standard launcher of P20 it's possible.
Does someone of you have a potential solution for me?
Thanks a lot for your help and best regards from Zurich
No solution, but the same problem on a P20 (not Pro). Tried to set a picture as wallpaper in Nova Launcher, but scrolling doesn't work. I also tried to force scrolling in the nova settings, but this crashes Nova.

I have a potential solution for you. I have had exactly the same problems like, as it seems, a lot of other Huawei users and nothing seemed to work. I then installed a bunch of different launchers and I finally got it working with Action Launcher. It worked out of the box, even tho if I made changes within the action launcher the KLWP became static again. I switched betwwen stock launcher and Action Launcher until I had my KLWP set up with all the settings I needed. You have to play around with that a little I guess, but I really think it will work for you.
The Launcher is this one.
Kind regards from Germany!
has there been any solution or work around for this? as i have a pretty cool setup i used for my previous sony xperia z2 and want to use it form y p20 pro but wall paper scrolling is integeral to it.
When you choose wallpaper click on the scrollable icon so it turns blue, your wallpaper is now scrollable when you apply it
I did the scrollable option in the standard launcher and it worked but I'm more interested in getting it to work using nova launcher. That's where everything seems to break down on me. Using standard everything works the way I want, just to complete the setup, I need to fully customize my app looks and shortcuts.
Same issue with Honor 10. Force scroll option on Nova Prime crashes the launcher.
Do you have the ability to select live wallpapers through the normal stock launcher?
As I've noticed on stock launcher the only live wallpapers you can see are the ones through Huawei's Theme App and no option to use external live wallpapers, so I wonder if this is the problem. I've emailed them and just waiting for a response as they state you should click on 'more' and then get option for live wallpapers in top right screen of which I don't, it's only the huawei theme app
Wallpaper scrolling works for me using Nova. I can also select external live wallpapers using Huawei's themes app.
If I use certain wallpaper apps to apply the wallpaper directly from their app, it doesn't work. But I found that once applied, I can then use nova wallpaper selector to reselect the same wallpaper from its 'history' options and this forces the wallpaper to now scroll.

I was on 156 and now on Android Pie EMUI 9. Scrolling still works for me. Stock theme.
On my side, i try to disable the wallpaper scrolling because when i set a static "portrait" picture, it zoom the picture and it's a mess >_< (nova launcher set in static wallpaper)

So you are on a totally different model/firmware as not all P20 Pro's are the same, it doesn't work on the CLT29-8.1.0.131 (C782)
Update: according to Huawei 3rd Party Live Wallpapers are not supported.
In response, please note that Google live wallpaper, KLWP or any other non Huawei themed live wallpaper are not supported by the device

I've not gotten Nova Launcher Pro to work. As others have stated, if I select Scroll Wallpaper to On, nothing happens. Just a static wallpaper. If I choose forced, it crashes.
The Microsoft Launcher works fine however. Just set a regular wallpaper to scrollable in the Huawei Wallpaper app, then you can apply KLWP. This has worked for me at least. The drawback of the Microsoft Launcher is that it doesn't have the workaround for the 5 second delay which is a pain. I've reported the issue to Microsoft a few times, both on the Google Group and Twitter, but so far, nothing.
SOLUTION :_Wallpaper scrolling in klwp
Its simple.... If u have 3 screen klwp live wallpaper jst save it from klwp and come to home screen(hope you have nova) then hold the screen untill it arrives to add screens.
Add 3 blank screens and feel the magic of klwp.
U must also enable wallpaper scrolling in nova settings

KLWP NOVA Launcher and wallpaper scrolling

I have tries everything and I cant seem to get wallpaper scrolling working with KLWP and nova launcher. Anyone know a solution to this.
i posted a solution in another thread after getting feedback by kustom as I had similar issues and huawei weren't that helpful and just said it was not supported
Use Stock Launcher
Choose wallpaper
Click the scrollable icon in bottom right so it turns blue
Apply wallpaper
Change to Nova Launcher
Select wallpaper and it will be scrollable across screens and will allow you to use KLWP properly

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!
