Wallpaper not scrolling left to right

**elwynevans** · 07-13-2012, 05:29 AM

Hey guys, had my Samsung Galaxy S3 for a couple of days now and I love it. What I have noticed though is that my wallpapers don't scroll left to right when I'm scrolling through the home pages/menu screens.

It always scrolled along on my HTC Desire and on my girlfriend's Galaxy S2, but its just not doing on my G3. Anybody got any ideas? Thanks

Samsung disabled it for some reason

Thank GOD!!!! I couldn't stand the scrolling wallpaper. When I use my son's one x, the wallpaper scrolls and drives me nuts.

Install Nova Launcher and it will scroll again. The only problem then is that setting wallpapers from Gallery will only allow you to make a single screen crop. Just get a program like QuickPic and that will resolve that problem.

That's great, thanks for the advice guys! I liked it on phones like the Galaxy Ace that gives you the option of a cropped or a moving wallpaper so I'll give those apps a try. Thanks again!

so then what is the exact resolution of the single screen if it doesn't scroll? i'm annoyed i have to crop all my old wallpapers and now they look awful.

Go Launcher also allows WP scrolling :-)

I'm willing to bet that they look awful because your old screen was SMALLER than the SGS3's screen. Just get new walls like I've been for your new screen. There are quite a few good apps in the Google Play store. Just look at the reviews and you will know which are good and which are bad.
