I have all my Widgets categorized it would be cool if we could have a live wallpaper for each page instead of for all pages like if the neural background on one then if you have a media page have it set for one of the media wallpapers and so on. You get the idea so app developers what do you think can it be done.

Having several live wallpapers all running at once would be pretty intensive and likely slow the phone to a crawl. I would, however, love to be able to set a different standard (static) wallpaper on each page or one that spans all screens like it is now except for specific screen which you can kind of layer a different one on top (maintaining the flow of the underlying one).
EDIT: Just did some searching and found that there is one that does what I want! http://www.appbrain.com/app/org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture
Maybe if you contact the developer he could find a way to let you select a live wallpaper when choosing what to show on each screen. Having all static and one live would, presumably, not have too much impact on speed even though you would technically be running a one within another

This live wallpaper uses a specified directory/folder, and picks a random static wallpaper to each one of the home screens.
You can set how often all static wallpapers are changed automatically (1,2.. hours), you can set a type of transition (out of 10 different ones) going from a screen to a screen, and you can double click on an empty space to force changing to a random set of static wallpapers to all home screens. You can also set specific static wallpapers to specific home screens individually.
One big advantage of this live wallpaper is that it uses very little cpu. It only changes which static wallpaper is displayed in which home screen.
Combined with the free "Backgrounds" app, it allows you to set multiple static wallpapers and randomize them for each home screen, with your own choice of many thousands of static wallpapers. Other, more subtle options for changing wallpapers are also available.

Multipicture Live Wallpaper has been my evo's wallpaper for as long as i can remember. it's brilliantly simple and yet astoundingly configurable.
i use this as well. very cool, exactly what i wanted in a wallpaper. The creator did a great job
I think I'll bump this for other people's benefit.
I've been using this wallpaper for months, and it's by far the best one I've tried.
Combine it with an app called Background (search and download wallpapers), and it's a clear winner in my mind.
Thx for the bump....

Hello!
Im trying to find any kind of live wallpaper that allows me to have changing wallpaper. Like with multipicture live wallpaper i can double tap on the wallpaper to change it, but i want one wallpaper to cover all my homescreens like they normally would, not one wallpaper for each screen.
I hope i explained well enough. Thanks.
its not a livewallpaper, but try wallswitch.

Or also Wallpaper Changer, you can select a folder or some wallpapers and it cycles through them, or you can tap the widget to change wallpaper.
Maybe try photowall, it gets the pictures from your sdcard or gallery + all your social media

WallMe - there's a lite and paid version. In the free version you can add three sources for the images (including online sources), not sure how many in the paid.
Double tapping brings up the wallpaper with options: settings, pause, and skip to the next image.
I think this is what you're looking for.
(from... Evo/MIUI/Tapatalk)
Wallme sounds like what Im looking for. Have to check it out.
I've tried different wallpaper changers but most of them don't have quick way to change the wallpaper. I like multipicture live wallpaper's feature to change on double tap.
Hi guys
I'm a total 'droid n00b so please be gentle with me.
I know I have seen Android devices which kinda "spread" an oversized wallpaper across all the home screens so that scrolling through the home screens also scrolls across the wallpaper. I just tried to set an oversized wallpaper and it made me crop it to the screen res
Is this a feature which is only available on some phones, or is there a tweak you have to load first... or am I totally blowing it out of my arse and the whole thing is a figment of my imagination?

get rid of Sense by replacing it with ADW Launcher. It will allow you to crop a wallpaper correctly for your home screen and it runs WAY faster with a ton more features. I would also recommend getting the paid version of the app. You can get it from Market.
also.. after you get ADW and are running it... go into Accounts & Sync in your settings and disable all of the Sense stuff.
edit: thought i should also add this recommendation. if you like the sense widgets and hate to part with them. or the weather clock...etc. you can get an app from market called Beautiful Widgets. it runs way faster than sense and does the same stuff... again with more options.
Errr.... that's all very nice but how does it relate to my question?
It is sense that is causing the wallpaper to display as it is, change sense back to the android stock option by removing sense will then enable the wallpaper you wanted.

In response to your original question, most Android devices and versions do spread the wallpaper across all the home screens, including older versions of Sense. Sense 3.0 however uses vertical wallpapers that do not scroll, it is a new feature in this version. I imagine they did it because of the 3D rotation of the home screens and it would make stretched wallpapers look weird when swiping, but who knows.
It would be pretty complex to have each screen with its own section of the wallpaper seperate, spin, slow and expand, and finally rest at the ending homescreen.

Thanks Cyberstorm98 - I shall lobby HTC and see if they'll make it an option when anims are off.
Hey guys, with all the flexibility that Android OS is supposed to have, one restriction that is really aggravating me is the wallpaper size contstraint...
Is there any way to get rid of the wallpaper size restriction? My goal basically is to able to make a wallpaper as wide as the amount of screens I have so that when I go to a different screen it looks like a different wallpaper. To see what i mean, take a wallpaper and use 2 home screens only. When you switch between the two, it loads a half of the wallpaper, so if you made one picture with 2 480x800 pictures, it would look like two seperate wallpapers. What I would like to do is use 3 home screens, and a wallpaper created by using 3 480x800 pictures (1440x800), but whenever I try to set a wallpaper it forces me to crop it to a 960x800 area. Can anyone chime in on if this is at all possible?
Thanks!
I like the idea and would like to know aswell..
I think wallpaper wizardrii works.

OK. It had been a really long time since I used multi live wallpaper.
My goal was to be able to have, on my 3 screens, individual wallpapers that i compiled randomly, and use a wallpaper changer to always have a different wallpaper on each screen. Multilive does that now! Just set it for random, and eveyr hour, all 3 of my screens update with a different wallpaper. All I did was create 480x800 versions of all the wallpapers i was going to randomly combine into large wide wallpapers, throw them all into a folder, and tell multilive wallpaper to pick from there. It's pretty damn sweet. Also, if a wallpaper that I don't want to see at that time comes around double tapping the screen changes them all up again. It's great.

Hi!
I want to set maximized picture as a wallpaper, but now i must cut it before i set it.
What should I do?
How to maximize wallpaper on android
Hello ,
to maximise wallpaper on android actually it totally depend o n which type
device you use, your screen can be a huge battery consumer. Looking under your settings at ‘battery use’ gives you a breakdown of the biggest battery consumers. On my phone, the display is always number one, so I set it to automatic brightness, which works much better than using manual brightness settings via the Android Power Control widget .
Thank you,
try app "wallpaper plus"
OP, your Wallpaper needs to be 960x800, (providing your device is the usual resolution), to avoid the issues you are having.
I'm assuming up to now you've been trying to set one that is 480x800? The extra width is to take into account the Homescreens scrolling from side to side.
Hope that helps.
"Superwall Lite" will set any wallpaper without cropping, and scroll accordingly if needed. It is a live wallpaper, but it won't eat your battery the way most do because it's just showing an image.
I know that the original post was a while back, but just in case anyone else is curious. The app is especially good for using a vertical image, but you can also use really long images and the screens will move as such.

Download andWobble2 as well as the live wallpaper add on for said program. You can use any picture with it, just select the one you want to use, load it, save it and use the live wallpaper to use that picture as your wallpaper. The weird android resizing won't take effect.
I'm using Wallpaper SlideShow, doesn't need to crop or resize image.
