QuckPic

You could use PicSpeed wallpapers. Also has alot of other neat wallpapers.

Thanks guys for so quick replies. Will try & update u soon.

Try an app called image 2 wallpaper. Works like a dream.

I use a combination of QuicPic and/or Nova Launcher
Highly recommend Nova launcher as you can set it to scroll or lock the background and crop it to your liking

+1 for Image 2 wallpaper!

i have the same problem.
just rooted the phone to install GMD Hide Soft Keys, and now the wallpapers span unto the soft key bar and then its just black background.
tried image 2 wallpaper and still the problem persists.
any other way to get the wallpaper unto the bottom of screen.
thanks in advance.

Between using QuickPic, and setting my Apex Launcher setting to : "Single Screen (non-scrolling)" I can accurately plan for portrait orientation images for the phone, rather than to have to think about how big I need to make it for scrolling.
PS: If anyone knows the Nova Launcher's equivalent to "Single Screen (non-scrolling)", let me know because I haven't found it yet.

You just need to create your wallpaper with the correct resolution. There are threads where this is discussed.

[Q] Nova + different wallpaper on each screen?

Hi, has anyone been able to set different wallpaper for each home screen? There are I think two apps for that in Play Store, both require changing wallpaper to a live one, but after setting everything I only get 1 image..

Live Wallpaper

Anyone know how to get live wallpaper on 8.9 or 7 without safestrap? How did Cpasjuste get it working for apex launcher in the thor-gapps-rom? I am going to guess that it was something built into CM 10 that carried over and there isn't anyone here who understands why it works? Cpasjuste had no reply when I PM'd him about it.

Got my live wallpaper working. Moved audible and amazonmp3 out of the system folder to make room because I don't use it. Ran stunt's wallpaper fix and installed kindlefree livewallpaper picker. Still force closes but if I setup the wallpaper using it's own app and then click apply in the wallpaper picker for the split second it's on screen I get live wallpaper. Hope someone can let me know if there is a way to make this work properly/cleanly without fc, but otherwise working.

What live wallpaper are you using? I tried that using Phase Beam and ended up with a black background.

Lollipop app draw icon

For anyone wanting to make the stock ASUS Launcher look a bit more like stock Lollipop, I found an icon pack called LolliPop Colored on the Play Store. Applied via the icon packs setting in the launcher, it doesn't do anything other than change the wallpaper and app drawer icon. I then use the standard Nexus blue wallpaper.

You can get the same result by using the Google Now launcher. Plus it's an official app. You'll also get the "Okay google" function from any screen using this launcher instead.

Sure you can use google now, or nova or apex. That's not the point. For various reasons some people, myself included, want to use the stock Asus launcher. This is just a way to have it slightly nearer in appearance to stock lollipop's material design. Oh, and "OK Google" from any screen is available in the stock launcher too - it's an option in Google settings.

Sorry, I don't know how to share links for google play store apps (there's no sharing option like there is on apple app store). But if you search "LolliPop Colored theme" it will be top of the search results (it's by Alper Selzer)

I installed xposed framework yesterday. Using gravitybox module to activate softkeys (and expanded desktop so that can hide them again easily). Then used Xstana module to change the ASUS softkeys and status bar icons to Lollipop style. With WM Density changed to 270 (on my 550) I now have the stock ASUS Launcher just how I want it

Im still not root but i envy those navigation bars
guess have to get one too hehe

iphone
Now we can easily get iphone looks without any file, in latest ASUS launcher.

I installed Google Launcher but I don't have Google icon's. Only Asus's icons

Because you have ASUS Apps on your ZenFone 2, not Google Apps.

Nova launcher with glim icon pack

I have all Google app installed I think.
What do you mean by Google App ?
Asus say me to see whith Google but Google says me to see whith ASUS.
Thnaks for your help.

What apps' icons are you talking about? If you mean things like settings, dialer and downloads, then you have ASUS versions instead of Google/AOSP, so the icons are different. Using Google Now launcher won't change those icons.

Remove the weather from the home screen.

Hi
Is it possible to remove the weather from the home screen?
Thanks.

OK, after nearly 1,5 hours playing different settings, nothing happen.
So, I just install Nova Launcher - free and very customise.
But, if someone find way how to remove weather from home screen in pixel launcher - please share.

I just use lawnchair. But you can also use Pixel launcher editor with substratum.

i recommend Nova Launcher! also recommend using Nova Google Companion which adds swiping left on home screen for Google Now / news feeds just like Pixel Launcher if you miss that feature. i just wish they add dark mode support :crying:. Nova last update the companion in 2017 but still works perfect.
i cant post external link because im too new, but apk is download from nova official site. it is safe:

make sure to add to integrations in nova settings after installing apk

Guess not.
