Wallpaper cropping issue?

If you have "home switcher" you can select the stock launcher ("Home") & then change wallpaper. This is better at sizing for the NC. Then switch back to your preferred launcher.

I have had my best luck with sizing wallpapers by doing a couple of things. First, get wallpaper that's 1680 x 1050. This is what worked for me. Second, put the images in the Wallpaper folder of the NC internal memory. I found that if I put the image in the Wallpaper folder and in the Pictures folder, it never, ever, ever looked right if I selected it from the Pictures folder. Third, go to the default launcher and change the wallpaper. Pick the wallpaper you want from the Wallpaper folder and not the Picture folder.

 

i use an app named QuickPic for my photo viewer on my phone, so i added it to the NC when i rooted it.

when i change my wallpaper, it gives me the option to use the stock gallery or QuickPic to complete the action.

the stock gallery screws up the size, crop, resolution, everything.

with QuickPic, it works perfectly.

try it out. hopefully that will help.

 

I use wallpaper at 1024 x 1800 and it looks great. Put it in the same folder as the stock wallpaper.

Try this one for example:

There's an app in the Android Market called Wallpaper Set and Save that will take any size picture, resize it and set it as your wallpaper without losing any of the details of the paper. On my Droid Incredible I have a wallpaper that the original size was 1920x1200.

I used Wallpaper Set and Save and was perfectly resized and set as my wallpaper.

 

i d/l'd it, and i can't figure out how to use it.

 

Just do what myself and rjoudrey suggested and put the wallpaper in the stock folder.

 

i'm in my folders section and i can't find the gallery pictures to move into "wallpapers" folder


they're not in the "pictures" folder

 

edit.

loaded some images on an SD card. used wallpaper set and save.

problem solved.

 

hi,

I recently bought motorola quench XT3 xt502. I want to set the wall paper full screen i.e., 320 X 480. But I am unable to do that with default settings. I tried, wallaby and wallpaper set and save. But could not achieve it. both the apps are displaying zoomed portion of certain area of the picture. What should I do? Please help. mine is andro 2.1

thanks in advance.

 

solved. I downloaded wallpaper wizardrii app from market. it is setting my wallpaper as i wished.

 

I am having an issue with this. I want non-scrolling wallpaper so that is shows the whole thing all the time. I disables scrolling but when I try to select my wallpaper it still wants me to crop the image instead of letting me select the whole thing. I put the wallpapers on the internal wallpaper folder. I cannot figure out how to get to the stock launcher, I am using ADW. Suggestions?


Fixed!

I used an app called Wallpaper Wizardrii that is excellent.


Ok, I have a question. Can the NC use two different wallpapers. One for portrait and one for landscape where it just switches automatically?
