Since the last two weeks or so my wallpapers doesn't scroll anymore. I've read a lot of others having the same problem but with different phones, but still can't seem to find a fix for this. I don't have any rom's installed and the phone isn't rooted. I'm using Nova launcher prime but I've also tried stock launcher. I know Nova has a built in 'scrolling wallpaper' setting but none of the options seem to work. I've also tried setting wallpaper from different apps such as PicSpeed but with no success.
Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution for it? Although it's kind of a minor issue it's still bothering me a alot.
Anyone got any ideas?
It pretty much depends on the wallpaper you are using, try switching one?

Hi,
first of all, sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language
On to my problem:
I'm using RaduGs Tasty Ginger 2.0 and managed to install live wallpaper support.
I installed different wallpapers but when selecting one, they don't give a preview. When choosing one, there's only a black background on my homescreen.
When going back to wallpaper selection, choosing one and then FIRST hit settings, then just go back, i do get a preview!
When i now try to set this wallpaper as the standard one, i'm back on a black homescreen.
This happens with all ROMs i recently installed (radug, elelinux, cronos), but only with lw using opengl.
i tried for example "multipicture live wallpaper" or "Maps Live Wallpaper", they do work.
When choosing "Wave Live Wallpaper" or "Original Flurry Live Wallpaper", they don't work, only as described above.
Is there a workaround?

The Hero doesn't have 3D support so a lot of the live wallpapers you find on the market won't work on it and will result in a black homescreen. And I believe most ROMs use old OpenGL libraries.
To be honest it's not worth installing them anyway, they are very slow on the Hero, and even if they run smooth it brings the rest of the phone to a halt. Not to mention the battery drain.

I know, but the mentioned Wallpaper do work, but only after hitting settings an just press the back-button. only when applied as wallpaper, there's a black homescreen.
If i'm not completely wrong, RaduG uses v1.1 of opengl, so it's up to date, isn't it?

You're right, the g2 is too slow for some of these wallpapers, it's only to play around a bit
But i'm willing to get a htc desire or samsung galaxy s gt-i9000. i'd only wanted to know, if someone else can confirm this to figure out if it's a hero or a gingerbread and froyo thing.

Good to know!! Thanks
So I am posting this here because my username is too new and I can not place this on the correct forums.
I downloaded the HellKat ROM [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/development/rom-official-4-4-2-hellkat-mako-t2606098 ] The ROM is working just fine, except for one miner thing.
and I did mess with the DPI settings in the interface a bit, just to fit more items on my screens. When I change the wallpaper to one from Gallery, or the built in ones, the paper saves as super zoomed, and way far to the left. I am wondering if there is anything I can do to fix this? Can I use the app settings app? and change the android wallpaper cropper DPI settings? I am left confused.
I came from a 4.2 Jelly Beer build, and it was not like that. I am sure there is a easy fix for this, This ROM is my new daily rider, although I have not updated it due to others experiencing issues with later builds.
I thank you for your help, and for taking the time to read this post. If there is any way to have this moved to the correct thread, it would be greatly appreciated. I would like to make sure the correct dev reads in to this.

My solution was to install Holo Launcher HD. It may or may not work for you. In conjunction with that, I use Quickpic to set the wallpaper.

Thanks so much... I will give them a try.

I did not change to holo launcher, i enjoy the modded trebuchet launcher that comes in the ROM. I changed my wallpaper with you other option and I think it is the same still.

If you have the zoom fix settings then it will solve the problem. This is what keeps me from using any other launcher.

I do not have that setting, maybe this is just something I have to deal with until the creator fixes it...

U need to use a different launcher the gallery default DPI is different that the dpi your using.. U can try wallpaper apps that have scaling build in like picspeed.. But just download nova and you'll be fine
Having been using this for couple of weeks and seems to work mostly fine: (MoKee dior, can't post links yet, google helps)
Only problem seems to be with theming engine, it could be my nova launcher or something else thou, haven't tried with fresh install after systemui started to randomly crash. Nothing big, and not constantly, but sometimes. Anyone else tried & had similar problem?

Yes, I have the same problem with fresh install and looks like it's a common problem. My guess is it has something to do with RAM management.
+1 to the Systemui crash, but in my experience it happened after almost 10+ days after installing the ROM but i would say its still manageable by looking at the customization options the ROM gives...
Hopefully we may get a stable ROM soon
Hi! after I've seen the app opening animations of Oxygen/EMUI/MIUI/iOS, I started to notice that the S10's one is really bad. I've tried more than 10 launchers but I couldn't find any that has this kind of animation, help!
I would also like to know. Is their a way to get this without root and custom rom, or bye another phone ?
Hi guys,
I'm running xiaomi.eu weekly on my phone, with the latest build being 30.10 based on android 11. I have posted this question over there as well, but it isn't looking like the dev want to see this as a ROM issue but more a standalone thing. Well..
The issue is that Edge and Spotify no longer seem to be showing inapp icons. Pic:
I have tried reinstalling the apps but that doesn't change anything.
Any ideas how to solve this? I'd rather not while my daily driver ?
Hey,
have you tried to change the system-font? To me it looks like the buttons are inside the font, and your not stock font does not seem have them?!
Not sure but that could be the reason for your issue!
Kind regards
