[Q] Changing wallpaper, and amount of screens - HTC One S

First time using sense fyi.
Everytime I try to change wallpaper it says it was changed, but its still the stock sense theme wallpaper. I can change themes no issue, but doesn't change to one I want. What's the deal?
Next, stock it came with like 7 screens. I only use 3, maybe 4. For the life of me I can't find a way to reduce the amount. Help me out here?
Thank you sorry just got the one s last night. Came from nexus one. Haven't tried rooting this or anything yet. Just getting used to the phone itself first.

Need a little help with Lock Screen

I downloaded the elegant Blues sense theme from the DHD side. I need to change the lock screen back to the default as I have an 8 year old who plays games on the phone and the lock screen says F*CK I can't swim. I downloaded what I thought was a zip to revert back to standard htc lock screen but it didn't do anything. Can someone either make me a zip that has the default lock or tell me how to edit the current one on the phone?
Thanks.
anyone?

Well I tried pulling HTCLockscreen.apk ffrom another ROM and copying it to system/app and I ended up with the AOSP lockscreen.
Seems to me like all you needed to do was go in and delete the png.
edit: never mind I tried flashing one and I got the same thing you did stoopid goofy looking circles.
you still having trouble with the lock screen? I successfully flashed a lock screen with the core droid lock and different background last night.
I'm on cm7 now but thanks

HELP--HTC sense has stopped unexpectedly- wtf

for like the past week my sensation has been telling me that "htc sense has stopped unexpectedly" it does it in random places, nothing i have been able to track. then whenever im done doing whatever im doing and push the home button the white HTC splash screen pops up with the green writing and then starts loading as if i had just restarted the phone.
any idea????
Had similar issues before rooting/CM7A... got that white HTC screen almost every time I went back to home screen. Was thinking maybe a resource issue?
any idea how to fix it, its annoying as hellllllzz
I fixed it by rooting and installing CM7 Alpha.
my phone is rooted too but im still having the problem, are you still using the sense launcher? i kept the stock rom and everything, just rooted to freeze the bloatware
have you tried to clear data in htc sense?
i'm having this problem after install kernel looks like no solution for me if wanna use custom kernel
CoreDroid fixed the issue. Try it. Plus it's themed and let's you turn on and off tge Spinning SENSE animation and colors of the clock, etc.

Ive tried all the fixes,clear data.
Best one so far is to remove the new funky android Market app and go back to the old style one. Sense is only rebooting a few times a day now, not all the time.
Im on Stock Vodafone ROm, 2.3.4 No Root etc...
Bloke
Just back everything up (not system files) and factory reset and reflash. Its from a Dodgey install

I actually have this problem and am using CoreDroid.
I think I read it may be the new market that's messing with some things.
What widgets are you running?

Making wallpaper scroll again?

On pretty much all android phones, the wallpaper scrolls as you navigate left and right through your screens. On the sensation however, sense 3 fixes it since you can scroll all the way round. This is annoying. Before I rooted and flashed my phone, SPB shell allowed scrolling wallpapers again, even though that too can go all the way round your screens. Since flashing though, it's fixed, even with the non standard launcher. Is there any way I can mod this without changing roms?
The only way to re-enable it is to use a different launcher.
eg Launcher Pro
Most launchers have an option to turn wallpaper scrolling on and off. Unfortunately Sense 3.0/3.5 doesn't
I know sense 3 and 3.5 doesn't, but my spb shell launcher used to scroll until I flashed a different rom.

Does anyone know why it won't scroll any more on my different launcher? It did before I flashed any roms, but I don't see why a rom change would stop a completely different launcher from behaving the same as before?

Try wallpaper wizardrii but not with sense launcher

The qHD screen is capable of 1080x960 scrollable wallpapers but HTC ruined everything with its carousel thingy (pseudo-3D transitions).
Sense 3.5 would have been the best rom ever if it didn't have this limitation
Perhaps the next Sense with ICS will have back scrollable wallpapers...

Thanks, I'll give it a go, not using the sense launcher anyway.

Tried it, it's an editor. It won't automatically allow my launcher to scroll wallpapers again, and it'll only work on static wallpapers anyway, live wallpapers should also scroll normally.

How to Set Wallpaper without it turning low resolution

Ok, I'm sure that it's not only me having this issue, but
I'm trying to install the CleanROM 3.0 Wallpaper and any time that I do, it crops it and turns all pixelated. I've noticed this with any wallpaper I try to set that's not a system wallpaper.. is there any way to fix this??
I'm currently Running CleanROM DE 3.1
but i've noticed this on pretty much every ROM i've ran
here is the wallpaper
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27624455&postcount=24
I've actually spent yesterday figuring out how to do this in a super roundabout way.
I put the wallpapers I want into CleanROM 3.0 SE ROM itself. I edited the ROM zip file with 7-zip, inserted the background I wanted in the correct location and performed a full data wipe. Then I flashed it to the phone.
And walla, it works... I now have the 2 wallpapers I want in full resolution.
I'm sure there is an app that can put a full resolution wallpaper in your phone for you. I just never looked... lol
We had a similar problem with the HP Touchpad and a guy made an app on the play store to remedy it (here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwxLDEsImNvbS5raGFubmluZy50cHdwYXBwbGllciJd)
Unfortunately it only works with the Touchpad's resolution, though if someone made an app to support our resolution then it would work fine.
Just resize it when you select the wallpaper. Touch the opposing corners on the crop box and drag to make it bigger.

He means the selection window you can choose what part of the image it uses.
My wallpapers always look great.

download crop wallpaper from market it is free and does overall setting of pic for wallpaper
I remember back when I first got my inspire and was using the sense launcher, i believe I used an app called wallpaper wizardii or something like that. Might be worth giving a shot.

I've been using Zedge to set my wallpaper. When I set it through the app, it doesn't seem to lose quality, but if I try setting it through Sense from the downloaded picture, it does lose some quality.
Look up "dodol wallpaper" in the playstore. I set some pretty damn high quality photos as my wallpaper. Always amazes people!
I use an app call wallpaper set and save. It will keep the resolution of the image you are setting as the wallpaper.

On Supreme Sense its in personalize/lockscreen. I don't think you will be able to find anything close on aosp unless go locker does it, I've never used anything GO related for longer than 2 minutes so who knows

Yeah that's where I checked, I don't see it there for her. Just two photo album lock screens, and a wallpaper lock screen, and a clock lock screen.
I wonder what is up. They come on Supreme Sense without having to download a theme right?

Yeah that's where they are, and you don't need a theme. But did you by any chance install a2sd with no partition? Or delete anything from data/app? Use a file explorer and see if idlescreen_weather.apk is in data/app.
