Help No wallpaper scrolling????

Jaxx89 said:
So if I install another launcher like go or Apex, will it delete my folders that I have created in touchwiz??

Short answer: Yes.
Long answer: No, but you won't be able to access them unless you set them up in the new launcher. You'll still have them if you ever switch back to Touchwiz.
 
I think it's Ridiculous that this isn't a standard feature on the GS 3. Like what's the reasoning behind it not being on here?
 
This worked for me!!!! :)

I too was annoyed by this issue...i installed "wallpaper wizadrii" apk from the market....open and select "crop landscape" and set as wallpaper...issue resolved..also this works for all launchers...!!!!! hope this resolves your issue...

Wallpaper scrolling is removed from Touchwiz UI which is Samsung's own launcher.
Third party launchers like go, apex etc...have the wallpaper scrolling feature, Touchwiz doesn't. So using another software is of no point if you are already using a launcher which supports wallpaper scrolling.
 
I tried the scrolling wallpaper with Go Launcher and it worked...sorta. But not great. The right and left ends were cropped short. Maybe another one would work better. This was using the same wallpaper I used on my DX that scrolled perfectly.

I'm running Apex (free) because it rotates from portrait to landscape. The only issue I'm having is that almost all of my wallpapers won't fill the entire screen when I rotate.

Anyone know why?

I've looked all over Google and can't find a solution...

I'm having the same issue. Have you resolved this?
 
Wallpaper Wizardii works just fine but I've got to crop my wallpaper photo twice, once for portrait and once for landscape. I'll keep poking around with it and report back later.

Thanks, guys.

EDIT: It turns out all I have to do is "crop landscape" and the wallpaper fills my screen in both orientations. I'll keep experimenting and will report back only if I find something new.
 
there is an app that can make wallpapers scroll and its specifically made for the galaxy s3!!

the app is called SCROLLING WALLPAPER. its made by andronymus. just follow the instructions when you open the app and choose and picture to set as a background and it will scroll as you slide from page to page! hope this helps!!! dont get wizard wallpaper it has nothing to do with scrolling. only setting still backgrounds

I messed with it yesterday and was a bit disappointed. I couldn't configure the settings so that the wallpaper remained perfectly stationary while scrolling. If someone could give an indepth "how-to" it would be appreciated.

Also I'm not sure how those using GoLauncher are able to obtain a scrollable wallpaper, but everytime I attempt to change my Wallpaper (without using one of the ones that is provided with some GoLauncher themes) I'm still forced to crop.

Seriously, one of the most idiotic features of the S3...

Okay I did everything you said after downloading that app, but I still can't get mine to scroll.

I'm using TW, BTW.

What am I doing wrong?

The only issue with this is that its a live wallpaper......and sometimes it gives little slow downs unlike fixed wallpaper.
