i want some recommendations of videos/photos to show off the gorgeous screen of S4. And some places to find amazing wallpapers. Most apps dont have wallpapers for HD screen yet, all of em are upscaled and they dont look as good as default wallpapers.

Been searching for a while trying to find some info on the color depth on the Super AMOLED screens on the Galaxy S line.
Reason being, I have to be very wary of what wallpapers I use on my phone, because many end up looking very bad. You see distinct lines in various gradients as if the color depth of the screen is just very low.
It's a little disconcerting, and confusing, given how great these screens are supposed to be.
For example, there is a new wallpaper Android Central (posted just the other day) featuring their new logo/mascot. The wallpapers looks fine on my LCD monitor on my computer, but when I put them on my phone, I see lines in the background gradient that shouldn't be there. It doesn't seem like the screen can render those 'in-between' colors.
Anyone have any insight on this? Is it in fact the screen? Are other phones like this too?
I did read something about the fact that Android 2.1 maxes at 16bit color but 2.2 remedies this limitation, but I'm not sure if this is accurate, applicable to the situation, or even true.
Thanks in advance.
Download the Acquarium free live wallpaper in the market. The colors look amazing on my phone. There's also the Avatar movie, in the bright scenes the colors really "pop".
Let's hope froyo adds that feature, I've noticed it too on some colors, but its a minor annoyance, I'm sure if android supported larger screen resolution like gingerbread will have, samsung would have put a 1280x720 screen in there. Maybe the S2

As a photographer I put several of my Hi Res works on my Phone. I did not even downsize them and just moved them to the phone so they would not be downsized automatically. I found the Gallery displays them perfectly, all be it with a slight over saturation. But the depth is great, really really good. I have used it as a mini portfolio, its that good.
However if I make any of them a wallpaper the phone dummies the shot way down and I loose sharpness, pixel depth, contrast, even that over saturation I spoke of. Its seems to me the shots are forced down to a "good" wallpaper size to not drain resources maybe? If a large hi res photo is not down sampled in small increments a little at a time it looses a ton of quality. But should not shots made for wallpaper from the market work well too? Maybe the Vibrant dummies all shots down for the wallpaper since all screen sizes are different?
Now if I could only get the Gallery to stop hanging on start up after the Ji6 update...ugh
It could be the stock gallery app that is ****ing up the wallpapers. I recommend using an app called "Wallpaper Set & Save" which allows you to set any size wallpaper without ****ing up the quality. Zedge is another great app with tons of dope wallpapers and doesn't destroy the resolutions of your wallpapers.

Cool! apps like that I was not even aware of. thanks.
I just tried Photoshop Express app for Android to set a Hi Res pic to wallpaper. Fail. It down graded it substantially, It must use the crappy internal phone method also. Gonna check out the recommended apps thanks.
When resizing a wallpaper to use as the lock screen pic, there is some severe resolution drop.
Are there some high res wallpapers in portrait mode at native sgs2 resolution, maybe that will help?

If your wallpapers are 480 x 800, resolution is fine. Just increase the yellow frame to cover all the screen and you won't lose any resolution.
you can change the lock screen wsllpaprr ? how ?

Okay. I love the Earth wallpaper in the above thread. I have a cutdown version on my lockscreen. I can't get the yellow box to expand over the full pic. I absolutely want to take advantage of the screen and display the utmost resolution that I can on the lockscreen. What am I doing wrong?

The SGSII's resolution is 480x800. Since the Earth wallpaper is 960x800, you will only get the yellow box to cover half of it. You can't make magic resolution appear on a screen that is limited by 480x800.

Yeah, just choose some 480x800 wallpapers for lockscreen and you will be fine. 960 x 800 works for selecting background wallpaper when choosing extended view. Samsung's way of cropping/selecting wallpapers is a pain the @ss anyway. I gotta try at least 2-3 times until i am able to select the whole pic, most of the time i select a small portion which forces me to go back and select the wallpaper again
Anyone know of a good place to get wallpapers for our Notes?
Apps such as Zedge and Flickie HD don't seem to keep wallpapers that are high-enough resolution, and most sites that stock 1280x800 wallpapers have landscape orientation ones.
Wallpapers
Found some nice ones at phandroid, http://androidforums.com/android-themes/937-official-wallpaper-thread.html
you can try googling images and specifying exactly the size of the image you want. assign the orientation through the pixel amount for height and width.

Does anyone know if there's a place to upload images to xda?

That resolution would not account for the scrolling wallpaper. I believe the native resolution of the Note incl. scrolling is 1600x1280.

I know that it's not a huge selection, but we already have a Wallpaper thread on the Galaxy Note Subforums. Maybe a merge?

Good idea. Sorry, I had not seen your link.
I implore you to go to www.wallbase.cc to download some of the wallpapers there. You can search random at the resolution of your liking. Here is a direct link to random wallpapers @ 2560 X 1600 which compliments this tablet perfectly:
http://wallbase.cc/random?section=w...x1600&thpp=32&purity=100&board=21&aspect=0.00
Do not save the thumbnail. Click the one you want, it will open the big picture in another tab, save that, then go view that in your gallery.
Prepare......your eyes will melt
Just trust me. I've been using wallbase for years on my desktop but nothing compares to a high res photo on the Galaxy Note 2014. Simply amazing!
They have some nice pictures. It amazes me how many people apparently have a picture of some scantily clad lady as their background, almost half of the pictures on random mode are of that variety. I never understood why you would want that on your tablet always, for everyone to see, when you hand the tablet to your mom, your co-worker...
Anyway, what I actually wanted to ask: Wouldn't you want the wallpaper to be wider than the screen resolution? Otherwise it would have to zoom into the picture to be able to scroll the image when you switch homescreen pages. Or did you disable that?

Actually not........
2560 x 1600 is the best for viewing but if you want it for wallpaper the smallest resolution should be 2560 or as close as possible.
Interfacelift.com has photos up to 3840 x 2400, they have a dropdown box that you pick the size that you want from.

I see...my wallpaper is stationary so that resolution works for me that's how the note 2014 came out of the box.
Thanks for the link will definitely check that out. Always good to have more options!
Thanks for sharing bro, This makes the tablet even better . This is really appreciated
i don't know if this is compatible with the new Note 10.1 but Samsung Display has released an app that has some awesome eye-popping wallpapers included in it

Thanks for sharing.
I stocked on some 1600p wallpapers just to have them resized, but then found this app, its a "fake" live wallpaper, allows to set a pic as wallp w/o cropping or resizing it one bit and big thankz to the guy who posted 2400p wallpaper link!
edit: teh app also allows to set a different/separate pics for portrait and landscape.
Hi guys. I looked everywhere but i can't find wallpapers for this device.
When i find something cool and try to set it it looks horrible.
Can you please link some cool wallpaper and the size of the ideal wallpaper for the G pad?
Thanks.

The screen resolution for the gpad is 1920x1200. Any wallpaper this size will fit perfectly. There are also a lot of apps that let you download and setup wallpapers.

Yeah, trouble is a lot of wallpapers usually found is made with the proportions in reverse. So basically a 1080p wallpaper wouldn't be enough! We lack right around 900 pixels on the long end. You would need to find a site that offers highres, above 1080p images as wallpapers. I'll see if I can find a few when I get home.
On the other hand, if you were to use the tablet mostly in landscape mode, a cut og a 1080p desktop wallpaper would look crisp..
