Anyone know how to make a moving gif as your today screen background? Or maybe as the default image that comes on instead of the myinfo screen?
If this can be done on simpler phones, I'm sure there's a way to do it on WM5.. Anyone?
i there.
sorry for my bad english but i cant find some more informations in germanthreads about the quality of wallpapers in the lockscreen. i hope someone can help me.
if i install a wallpaper in perfect quality on the homscreen i can see the best quality. if i install the same wallpaper for the lockscreen so i mean, manila change the qualitiy to three level down. have anyone an idea for a better quality?
the same one is on td2 with wm6.5. i mean its not the problem of HD2.
thnax for your help

(First, I'm trying to avoid HDwalls)
It has always bugged me that when you apply a wallpaper under Settings, that the wallpaper isn't as clear as if you were to view them in the "Picture" tab. In fact, the applied wallpaper is some what blurred at a lower quality.
Has anyone noticed this? Or is it just me because I can point out something you were not able to see.
try it yourself with some sharp jagged text as wallpaper. Then apply it to the lock screen as well.
You'll notice that the wallpaper on home screen is not as crisp and clear as the one on the lock screen.
Anyone know why?
you are right, I did notice this.
has it got something to do with the phone trying to squish the image into the right ratio instead of just cropping the image too fit?
not sure maybe some other members can offer their help?
See, you didn't even notice youself. And i think most people dont realize this as well.
Anyone got a fix?

Sense resizes the image to something smaller than 480x800 and then stretches it again (for some silly reason). It's a long-known problem - since the phone was first released. It's also one of the reasons that HDWall came about. The only alternative to HDWall I know is to install Co0kie's Home Tab. You can set wallpaper with that and it retains the original quality (as well as having a LOT of extra wallpaper options).
Try resizing or cropping the image to 480x800 then setting it as a background, that way the phone won't need to resize it for you.....

It still does it. The default way of setting wallpaper in Sense is just crap.

cookies wall doesnt work. never did.
home tab>menu>home wallpaper> etc...
that path doesnt work.
unless there is some other way...
resizing images dont work either.
I just also want to mention that Cookies Home tab 1.8 does improve the quality of the wallpaper over normal Sense BUT they are still reduced in quality and resolution somewhat so are still not full quality.
So for me - HDwalls is what i use - though i sometimes have trouble getting it to work properly.
Use SPB Mobile Shell. You will get mega sharp wallpapers (custom of course) and far better functionality than standard sense.
Anyone else notice the new crop pattern? I don't like that at all. Any way to change or bypass it?
I really like the my interest wallpapers in the lockscreen but it seems they only show on the lock screen? Is there any way to get these wallpapers on the home screen too? They look really nice and High definition and are much better than the crappy default Samsung ones
I like this on homescreen too
I would love to know this as well.
Is there anyone who know hows to do this ?
