Anybody has the same problem? I put "landscape" or "portrait" orientation and it always goes to "landscape" in ADW launcher.
Okay I made sure that I search all over Google and on forums before posting this problem. My SGS4G will not stay on vibrate always. I have confirmed that the problem is ADW Launcher Ex. (paid version). I unistalled launcher and vibrate function worked fine but I love the customization on the launcher and would like to know if there's a fix before I delete it all together. Here's the difficult part. When I go to settings and change to vibrate always then it vibrates a few times with messages then automatically switches back to vibrate "Only in silent mode". Sometimes my calls won't even ring. Please help. This is extremely frustrating. Is there a fix or at least another app that is just as good or better than ADW Launcher Ex for UI customization.
Thanks
Is anyone else having problems with wallpaper on Launcher Pro? Using the default launcher, the wallpaper scales down to the size I set. Launcher Pro keeps it HUGE and cannot be adjusted no matter what the resolution is.
Am I doing something wrong?
I have the same problem, it happens basically with any launcher that is non stock. theres apps that can fix the problem, but seems like a quirk that we're stuck with

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I was having the same problem and figured out what causes it, and a way to generally avoid it.
what seems to be causing it: Allowing home screen rotation. It appears that as soon as you rotate, Launcher pro resizes the wp to that pixelated mess, and will not revert it back once returning to portrait. I've had it happen also while going to the home screen while having the browser in landscape
to prevent: from home screen click menu / preferences / behavior settings / -> and make sure "enable auto rotation" is unchecked. (don't worry you can still rotate in apps by activating the rotation setting in the notification bar, unchecking that box just prevents the home screen rotation)
to fix your current messed up wallpaper: click menu / settings / applications / manage applications / -> click launcher pro / click clear defaults.
this will allow you to activate touchwiz again. So hit the home screen button and select TW to complete that action. after it's done try setting your wp again. Go ahead and reset launcher pro as your default now and your wp should still look good. You should now be able to crop new wp's and have them look fine too.
you shouldnt have to do this again
all set!
That did the trick. Thanks!
I tried that but it didn't work on my evo 3d
there is another work around
open the pic you want to use
rotate your phone to landscape mode
set your wallpaper using the landscape square, not the narrow one. Let it finish.
rotate your phone back to normal
your WP should now not be that pixelated mess
I'm sure this is a common issue but I can't seem to find a way to word it to yield any fruitful search results.
If you enter the app drawer in portrait orientation and then turn your phone to landscape, all the icons overlap in one spot in the top left corner. Returning to portrait puts all the icons back in their correct places. If you are in landscape mode before hitting the app drawer button, the icons draw correctly. Rotating to portrait is also fine, but attempting to go back to landscape creates the same problem.
Is this problem a known one? Is there a fix besides switching launchers (I've tried ADW, ADW Ex, GO Ex, etc., and still vastly prefer LP over all others)?
Report the problem to the developer of the launcher.
With the module App Settings for Xposed I could put the home screen launcher landscape when I turned the phone. In 5.1.1 it does not work anymore. Can someone confirm?
I can't confirm because I don't use stock launcher. But launchers like Nova allow landscape mode natively, why not use one of them?
