So I have a few panorama wallpapers, and for the last couple betas they've worked fine, and the picture scrolled well. After installing the GM, same pics, no more scrolling. Any ideas on why this is? I tried it after installing the GM and restoring, and another time setting the phone up as new. same result. Panoramas won't scroll no more. Help?

Anyone else having this issue?
 
That feature was never announced by Apple and was later dropped since beta 5, IIRC.
 
stupid if stopped by Apple as panoramic wallpapers was a great feature.
 
Apple probably determined it was a battery or resource killer. Maybe it will be an iPhone 5S only feature.
 
Apple never mentioned the feature anywhere and as such, it was removed from iOS in beta 5.
They may bring it back in the future.
well that explains it...I didn't try out a panoramic photo for wallpaper until beta 6...I'd read about it, but waited too long, all I got was a cropped section of a panoramic photo :(
 
I never understood why people liked panorama backgrounds.

Why would you want your background to move when you physically move, but the phone and 'page' your on stays the same.
Because in the real world when you hold your phone and turn around, you will see your phone in same place, but your "background" will rotate?
