Has anyone figured out how to get wallpapers to scroll, besides stock? If not, let (me included) get on this. If there is one thing I love (as much as theming) it's wallpapers!
Haven't found one either. I miss that feature.

Get the app called Scrolling Wallpaper (crazy right?) from the market. Seems to be made specifically for the Galaxy S3 and it works great.

to bad its now working with live wallpapers
If you use a 3rd party launcher, like apex launcher [been using it on my Evo] and confirmed to scroll the wallpaper on the G S III.
If you do infact use apex launcher, just enable the scrolling option in the settings.

I tried apex with no luck. Yes, you can scroll default and live walls but not ones selected from the gallery.

You went into apex settings > home screen settings > wallpaper mode > check multiple screen [scrolling].
That should work, because my homescreen pic scrolls; doesn't work on live wallpapers though.

I'll have to look into that that. It worked on my wallpapers from my gallery, but not a live wallpaper; the lwp i had when I tried was the luminous dots.
Have you tried Wallpapyrus? That seems to always work when other ones haven't.

I used a gallery app(quickpic) and they seem to scroll fine

Upgraded to ICS yesterday, so far ok.. nothing amazing. But glad to have it. Is it not possible to make folders by dropping one App on top of another like on the Nexus??
thanks, and sorry if this was asked.. I checked, didn't see.
That's why touchwiz sucks
Your best bet is to get ics launcher like apex

Oddly enough, I just tried Apex... but every widget I try adding, I get a message at the bottom saying "there's no more room on this homepage".. even when theres nothing else there! Any suggestions?
Maybe the widgets are too big for the screen you are not running any dpi change on it right? Also you can't add widgets ala ics way unless you are rooted

Thanks.. did that. That helped get some widgets on the screen, but there's still so many, like the digital clock, or power saving widget, for example that just won't fit on the screen.. can't seem to figure out how to get them to fit!! any other suggestions?? thanks!
Happened to me too when I upgraded my Note to ICS yesterday. I didn't touch any of the TW screens but installed and used Apex immediately. When I tried to add e.g. shortcuts to my XDA favorites it came up with the same error. I then checked with TW and there were the shortcuts, on screen 7 (where was some space). I cleaned up TW, i.e. removed all the widgets, and now it works on both launchers. Very strange indeed...
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9100 mit Tapatalk 2
Yeah it wont for me either. Although the widget would resize once in the 5 column but it still hovers above as if it is default 4...so a launchrr issue if it defaulted to 5 for the note it would be fine.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Using the default at the mo.
Any one using anything else?
Apex? etc?
Curious if the default has all the pinch-zoom capabilities of Xscope. I can zoom any mobile page with Xscope, the only browser I found that does that on all sites (like FB).

He meant launcher, not browser lol.
OP, I started apex, but realized what a pita it would be to set up, and said "I'm out" and uninstalled. It works though.

I stuck with the default one since "My Library" doesn't show your library in Apex.

I don't think it does right now. I tried configuring it and, unless I'm missing something, it's stuck in tablet mode. It won't let me get rid of the Tablet app launcher in the top right and the search bar in the top left. Also, all of the icons don't scale right, so they're tiny compared to the stock launcher.
I'm going to roll with stock until Apex updates for JB.
I use Apex. Its really fast and fluid on jellybean!

+1 for go launcher. Smoothest and most functional on jelly bean yet. Apex lags with a few icons on screen and nova has a few bugs that need to be ironed out for jelly bean. Go launcher never lags at all 6x10 grid. Plus themes work awesome And effects. Plus it has full features and its free.

I've tried both nova and apex. Apex has some rescaling issues when redrawing icons in tablet mode. Nova is ok but it seems as if many of its features are reserved for the pay version.

i have used apex before on the s3 but didnt really get on with it but the new beta is like lightning on the s3 or is it just placebo ?
It's using Jelly Bean code, so probably it's not placebo.
confirmed.
can confirm its fast as f!!k now. been using since i had a galaxy ace with ics kang and my oh my it's improved. one tip is no animations or transitions. buzz lightyear on my fone lol:cyclops::good::cyclops:
Yep really fast now, didn't realise there was a beta version out so thanks

My only problem with apex is the small lag when opening folders with a lot of apps. I just can't stand it and the beta still have it. Using nova until them fix it.

To get the new Beta you have to have Apex launcher installed then go to Apex settings>About Apex Launcher>Automatically Check for updates> click Beta then search for updates.... It should now find and install the Beta version.
I'm using the beta as well, before that I was using Nova for a long time. Both are great and both have advantages and disadvantages. I'm going to stick with Apex for now. They are so similar but these are the major difference I have noticed using both
Apex:
Smoother Screen Transitions than Nova
Now has JB widget placement/resize
Nova:
Smoother scrolling in folders(apex folder scrolling is more jerky)
Ability to add and view multiple drawer tabs at once. With Apex it seems you can only have 3 tabs visible at once(2 app and one widget) with apex you can have as many as you like all visible
Other than that they seem pretty much the same
Go launcher us better than both for features.

That dinosaur? Lol. It'll do more harm than good.
Newbie question : what's the advantage of using newer ICS / JB specific launchers? Speed?
using Nova Launcher because Apex transition from homescreen to apps list isn't very nice. instread of homescreen fading back it just blacks out. On Nova it fades in like on the original ICS launcher.

You also can do this with apex, ppl should play more with the settings.
Drawer settings - drawer animation and choose fade in. This is NOT the swype animation.

In your opinion Popular/Best launcher to use with this phone ?
I like Apex or Nova Launcher. Super customizable and stable. They have gestures which let you put all that screen real estate to good use.
The best for me!
The best for me is BuzzLauncher. I have been using it for 2 years already
i use Nova Launcher Prime...well worth it.

I dont know the others but Buzz Launcher does. Also Next launcher, TSF Launcher, and Go launcher do too. (TSF is not being updated anymore, so you will probably discard it, although it is REALLY GOOD TOO)
