I was wondering if it was possible to get have an un-cropped picture as your wallpaper and possibly not have wallpaper scrolling, I'm currently using Launcher Pro which allows you to disable wallpaper scrolling, but I'm really annoyed that android isn't allowing me to use the entire picture, It just makes it look really bad. Thanks for any help with this.
I found that when you go to crop the picture out gave me 2 options to crop to. One was square, other was tall. The tall one fit better for me

I've searched threads, and across Google and most all point to the same result. I'm trying to shrink the font size on Gingerbread. I switched back from ICS due to the battery issues I was having and ICS let me adjust font size without problems.
Modifying the density with the root programs made my market screw up and throw me the error " This app is incompatible with your device". Changing density back fixed the issue. Is there another setting I can add to build.prop that can adjust font size? Has anyone had any luck changing font size without changing screen density?
Spare parts will let you change font size.

Thanks, The pro version or regular? Regular only seems to work on the spare parts screen and nothing else. I remember that app working for me when I had my epic, strange.
Not sure really. I only have used the one included with roms which I'd assume is not the pro version. Did you reboot after changing it? I haven't changed it in a while because I found the default font size was good enough for me. If that isn't working I'm not sure if there's any other app. Perhaps you could use rom toolbox to change fonts and get something closer to what you desire.

can somebody explain this wallpaper deal on the 1X, i find a cool one that according to specs has the correct size. save it to the phone --then i either add it as wallpaper via the Gallery or Personalize and it shows me the wallpaper, with a green square on it that i can slightly enlarge but still it only uses about a third of the entire image, on top of that.. quite a few look like crap (to put it blunt), very pixelated.. what am i missing here.
(related, yesterday i found how to have a different wallpaper on the lock screen but can;t find the setting anymore...)
Use quickpic from the market.

uhm... not quite the explanation i was hoping for ;] will this app allow me to set larger wallpapers ? someone else say it may be a Sense "feature".
Gotta use an app like the one above to make full res wallpapers. I think dodol wallpaper from the marketplace also works.

The "green square" just shows where the home screen will be. Sense has scrolling wallpaper, so you will still see the area to the left and right of the green square as you scroll left and right n sense.

understood, but it also cuts of the top and bottom while i used the right resolution which then makes (if it has something on the image...) pixelated, someone said it may just be Sense who causes that. i find it odd, i download the exact size and have to cut pieces.

Do not ask a question without first making peace with yourself and knowing what you are looking for. If you want to fix that, use quickpic app from the market. Of not, good luck making your own gallery app

You do realise you can expand the green box and stretch it to the top and bottom of the image?

yes, i can resize but only so far, and the green box resizes proportional.
Guys, don't be so quick to jump on the op. Its pretty clear what he's trying to say. I know because I experienced it. I'm gonna take a guess and say ur using stock ROM? I had the same problem when I was in stock ROM, he green square only stretches so far, it does not encompass the entire image, therefore the image it sets as your wallpaper becomes stretched and therefore pixelated. I also tried to find ways around this op but I couldn't find any, well that is until I flashed another ROM. I can't quite remember I it worked when I ran cleanrom, but any aosp ROM will work like aokp and cm9/10. With these ROMs the green square stretches out to encompass the full image therefore giving you the right resolution for ur home screen. Other than that I know of no way around the problem. Flash an aosp ROM op, you will thank me for it later

The green box isn't supposed to stretch across the whole image. The green box represent one Sense tab, ie the homescreen. The area ot the left and right of the green box is still part of the wallpaper, when you scroll left and right through the Sense tabs.
I don't see the problem here?

Go to the picture u want to set as wallpaper click on options then go to set as and clicl on quickpoc wallpaper. What is there not to understand? I do not see any difficulties here
Well, just like Sense it shows a square which limits the use of the entire image, is that hard to.comprehend ?

Download picspeed wallpaper and try that out. It gives you different crop options, including non scrolling wallpaper.

i was using the clock lock-screen, to be able to use a different wallpaper on the lock-screen you must choose "wallpaper" instead of the clock lock screen.. can't have both i guess (#unrooted)
Myself I find pics in range of 1280x1440, that gives nice clear picture viewable over several scrolling screens.
Of course, Ymmv.

Anyone using a circle/round app icon theme thats compatible with Apex? I found a couple but wondering what all my options are. All i want is the app Icons to be round instead of square. Trying a new fresh look for my S3.
TIA
I know of Flatro and Shaded Icons. Purchased both of them actually. I'm sure there are numerous others if the community has anything to say about that.
Im trying Circle Zoom HD right now.

Does anyone know how to remove or shrink the border around the KWGT or any widget? It is taking a lot of real estate.
Thanks
That looks horrible.

We'll, you could pick a different size widget when creating it. Or after you've created it, assist the zoom on it so it occupies more of the space you select (2x2, 4x4 etc)
There's so many things you could do with KWGT, it would be easier to go through KWGT's own help. Or just try things out.
