[Q] Turn off Honeycomb Wallpaper shifting on all screens? - General Questions and Answers

Hello, is it possible to turn of wallpaper shifting? I mean I want to have a single wallpaper on all screens that is not shifted between them, like in Android 2.3 on my Galaxy TAB, I can choose wallpaper format, wide or thin, portrait, that stays the same on all screens and only the desktops move...
Honeycomb has 5 screens, and wallpaper moves slightly through screens left or right. How can I use a wallpaper in the background that stays frozen and only desktops move?
Multipicture Live Wallpaper has a wallpaper for each screen, I want only one wallpaper, with moving desktops.
I have an Acer A500

Im not a fan of shifting wallpaper either. This app called MultiPicture Live Wallpaper seemed to fix that for me.

Disable weather on Home tab with original wallpaper

I've been bugged by this for a long time now. I would like to completely disable weather animation on the Home tab, but while keeping the original wallpaper, which is just plain black.
This is not possible as you have to choose between weather and animated wallpaper...even though animated wallpaper can be a static one. You then can choose a static wallpaper from your phone or memory card. Problem is, never can you choose the original wallpaper...you always have to choose a different wallpaper.
And when choosing f.i. an all black wallpaper, it will never come out on the Home tab as nice as the original black wallpaper...it's always grainy. This is very annoying, as the weather animation is useless imo and takes far too long to end....during which everything is slowed down considerably.
I'm still hoping to find a solution to this, but so far nothing....anyone?

Why do they call it wallpaper?

Why do people call lock screen pictures wallpaper? Wallpaper is like for your desk top or start screen what Windows Phone has is lock screen pictures not wallpapers.
Because it's shorter?
Because the wallpaper functionality in wp7 is limited to the lock screen wallpaper. The pictures hub though have backgrounds, which makes sense because the background is, well positioned at the back, topped with typography interface and tiles, hence background. If it was wallpaper then you should be able to see most of the picture.

[Q] Scaling wallpapers for the Droid Razr HD

Does anyone know the dimensions for the Droid Razr HD wallpapers? I'm trying to scale my favorite wallpapers that I have for use on the phone
This is a great question, I'd like to know the answer to this as well. I've seen screenshots 3 ways:
1.) Where the wallpaper extends all the way down behind the buttons.
2.) Where the wallpaper extends half way down behind the buttons.
3.) Where the wallpaper ends at the top of the buttons.
I'd like to know how to get it to go ALL the way down. Even the stock ones stop half way down the buttons for me.
I think this may have something to do with Nova Prime...
Bump. How do we get wallpapers to go all the way down when using Nova?
Standard Android wallpapers are as follows... 1x vertical resolution, 2x horizontal resolution. In the case of the 720x1280 Razr HD, you want to create your wallpaper at 1440x1280. Keep in mind that it'll be centered on the screen and not scroll with the default launcher, but the image still needs to fit that size to avoid the phone resizing it.
Other launchers can turn scrolling on and off, and Wallpaper Wizardrii can resize wallpapers, and will allow you to set 720x1280 images as wallpapers without padding the sides to the double resolution.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Does your background image extend behind the buttons to the bottom edge of the display when using Nova?
When I use Nova Launcher, backgrounds are cut off half way down the buttons, when I go to the default launcher they go all the way down (same wallpaper).

[Request] Proper wallpaper app with auto-margins

Hello.
As you are aware, it is not possible to pick a wallpaper for the One S without having to fill in the left and right fields in the wallpaper picker, whereas only the center field of the actual screen resolution is used. Especially in the Jelly Bean update this is an issue, as that version doesn't even have wallpaper scrolling, therefore having to pick wallpapers with extra margin is a pain in the royal hindbody especially if the image in question isn't widescreen but rather portrait.
Is there an app to fix this behavior, e.g. to either allow for [screen resolution only] wallpaper cropping or an app that allows the same during setup, and automatically adds black borders to the left and right (since these won't be visible given the lack of scrolling wallpaper)?
I use this to apply wallpapers

Or you can change launcher to one that lets you change how you set a wallpaper.
