Wow, thats awesome. Thanks!

I'm still new to Android, so help me out with this here. I'm using LauncherPro myself, but from what it seems, when I set it as default, TouchWiz should never even be open, so why would it's configuration make a difference when I'm using LauncherPro? Does TouchWiz still load somehow?
I actually think I did delete most everything out of TouchWiz, but if it would make things faster I'll dump all the extra pages I have too. I'm not using a live wallpaper, but anything that will help speed I'm down for!

Well I just remove every thing for insurance just incase it does run in the background, but don't forget to remove the pages in touch wiz as well, if you don't use live wallpapers it obviously run smoother but the live wallpapers put iphone to shame, only if it runs smoothly of course

Thanks for this but what I actually wanted to fix was the app drawer.....
The app drawer lags terribly when I am using a Live Wallpaper with LauncherPro....
Anyone know how to fix the app drawer lag?

Portrait wallpapers

Hi, does anyone know how to set your wallpaper so that it doesn't always turn to a landscape view, but a portrait one? I don't want to have the wallpaper pan each time I scroll to a different page. I just want image to remain static while I switch pages.
I tried Dodol's wallpaper maker but it's always force closing.. Please help!
Thanks.

Picspeed hd wallpaper app

Have you tried Wallpaper Wizardrii from Play store? Works well for me. I prefer no scroll as well. Option in settings of Wizardrii for no scroll.

Would rotating the picture before you apply it as your wallpaper work..? I think it would give you what your look for...

I tried using multipicture live wallpaper...
The problem im facing is i have set different wallpapers for 7 screens i have but i only see one wallpaper in every screen.......the thing which has made me even more curious is ...its the wallpaper of screen 5 which replaces all the screens........wat ever pic is set in screen 5, all the screens take that pic as their wall paper....is this a bug with sensation...
Thanks a lot in advance for all the help.....
best regards,
Sam

J use this application always, but only custom launchers do the job.With sense no work.Sense has her own sense....

I did. But I use it mainly as I want a picture of my daughter on my lock screen and a dark wallpaper as my background in my homescreens. I didn't try having different wallpaper for each screen.

Oh the damn wallpaper croping.

Its pretty anoying ( the default honeycomb wallpaper croping)
i was wondering if there is any app that can make my wallpapers fit to screen , i tried multipicturelive wallpaper , looks awsome but when i switched to portrait mode it had this loading wallpaper thing , is there anything bit faster ? thanks in advance

u can use Wallpaper Wizardii , available in the market .
Very nice free app u can set your wallpaper in many different ways and say good buy to the annoying honeycomb wallpaper crop .

Wallpaper alignment is an issue with the stock launcher, not wallpaper apps, which doesn't auto crop third party wallpapers. I am using LauncherPro and the problem is solved! Not to mention all the other cool features of LauncherPro. I only need two home screens. I can do that with this app. Also can select how many rows/columns of icons I want. Also can resize widgets.

[Q] Different wallpaper crop options on the z2 and z3 with lollipop?

Hello to all! I wanted to use a picture as wallpaper on portrait mode on my xperia z3 and I see I do not have that option.
It always asks to crop the pic. Also I do not have the option to use a static wallpaper and it always have to rotate.
My brother has the xperia z2 and can do everything I stated before! Is this normal?
I twitted sony but have no response after 48 hours and hoped that you will have the answer as always.
Just so you know we both updated to lollipop recently.
Thank you!!!!

I made the thread in the wrong section! I should do it in questions and answers! I searched but did not find how and If I can do it myself!

Moved to Z3 Q&A

Wouldn't mind an answer to this myself. I have a lot of wallpapers that are tall rather than wide and they are unusable with the cropping option I've given. :-/
I know I could use Nova Launcher but I'd rather know if there is a way to make this work with the default launcher.

I installed Google now launcher and use its wallpaper picker to apply those tall and portrait-typed wallpapers on default launcher.

That's weird. I tried that but the only way I can get it to work is to assign GNL as my default launcher, go and set the wallpaper, then set the Xperia Launcher back as default.

You need to long-press on homescreen and then choose Wallpapers and then another Wallpapers which is the wallpaper picker of GNL.

I noticed that there is no way to have a ''still'' portrait type wallpaper on the xperia z3.it has to be moving left and right and doesn't gives us that option. On the z2 if you choose a portrait wallpaper you don't have to crop it and it stays still on all screens... I cannot understand why they did this. I only found a way to do it on the default launcher. You have to choose photo slideshow live wallpaper and only choose the one wallpaper you like. The only thing i am not sure about is if it will have an effect on battery life.
