I downloaded my own wallpaper
1920 X 1200
set it and its still kinda blurry
whos knows why?
Updates : 2560x1600 will work
Thanks to seshmaru!
it wont let just set it as is
it always make me crop them and the crop square is always smaller then the actual picture
Because you need a higher resolution image. It's a scrolling background you know.

so how high?
1920 X 1080?
1920 x 1200?
higher, its its over 2000 px in width, if you want wallpapers 2560x1650 wallpapers are a pretty common format and scale much better.
that seems like a giant res
its 1200x1200 + homescreen scrolling and zooming, so yeah.

so do we all agree on 2560 x 1650?
i'll try that
ok so its not blurry anymore
but it will shift down after you set it
i'm sure the minimum resolution of wallpaper in eee pad is 1920x1408
I had a terrible time finding the right res, then found walpaper wizardi app. Some glitches but takes anypicu throw at it and BAM perfect res!

Hey guys, i've been downloading wallpapers non-stop from google images, i just typed in the resolution of "2560x1600" and found some really sick wallpapers.
Well as the title says Im looking for this option for our camera. I know its possible because it was on 2.2 froyo. It was just called 1080 hd. So Im wondering maybe in some sort of add on could we add this option to the stock camera in the gingerbread stock. I know everyones seen the improvement in pictures with this update and with the bravia engine now the detail is unreal. Now wouldnt it be great if it was bigger?

Its not possible. The 1080p was only 2.1 mp not 8. Change your stock cam to 2.1 (16:9) feature and you will see its 1080p.
4:3 is the aspect ratio for 8mp on most stand cameras whether its a phone, digital camera, etc.
The second you start changing the aspect ratio, its usally gonna result in less mp. But why does it matter? Not like mp are what defines quality....use the 6mp wide option if you want full screen shots. The quality doesnt change.

there is a way to achieve 16:9 on 8mp its via 3rd party app called vignette once you buy it from market it gives you that option to do so. so there is a way yes..

No! Vignette does not give 8mp 16:9 images. It gives 6. Look at the exif info of your shots.

well vignette has option for 3mp , 5 mp , 8mp then you go from there to mm the last button on right i believe or bottom then it gives you option to select frames or something like that. thats where you see the option for 16:9. squared rounded & so on..

Exactly, and the second you change the frames you have changed the mp regardless of if you have it set on 3 ,5 or 8
Vignettes 16:9 option will give you 6mp image. Regardless if your set to 8mp

Please show me these images that do 16:9 with 8mp. Once you go and change the aspect ratio,,,the mp/resolution will change. Froyo cam wont do it, miui cam wont do, stock se wont, vignette wont, 360 ultimate wont.
And if im wrong, like I said, just show me an image along with the exif info displaying the resolution and mp
Im not trying to argue with you, I just want you to understand once your change the aspect ratio of the picture, it will change the resolution as well.

I may be wrong!
3264x2448 is 8mp but our stock 6mp wide also takes width of 3264 but at the height of 1836 instead of 2448 pixels!
same as vignette or c360

Yep, your right. Which is why it changes to 6mp resolution

I'd rather have low compression or even no compression. At least then you start with a higher quality image you can crop/adjust without continous loss.

I was under the impression that SE has 720p ( HD) camera and not 1080p ( FULL HD). Also when we talk about 720p or 1080p, it is Video Capture mode and not picture mode. But I might be wrong......

Your absolutely correct!
The 1080p thing was a little overhyped. As its resolution is 1920x1080....2.1mp.

Can anyone who already has their nexus 10 confirm the correct wallpaper resolution required?
Bearing in mind 2560x1600 is before the scrolling that it does.
Thanks!
It has to be at least 2560 × 2560 because you also need to account for screen orientation. Good news is I'm pretty sure it doesn't scroll the wallpaper unlike the Nexus 4, so you shouldn't need something too absurd - I guess 2560² should be fine,

I believe it is with a 3rd-party launcher; idk about stock though.
Well mine arrived and it does scroll, can turn it off with other apps.
Need to find the right resolution so most of the picture still fits when you have to do the crop thing setting wallpapers...

I'm also looking for this. 2560x1600 is the lanscape resolution on each home screen. What is the total landscape resolution? Is it 5120x1600?
I have your answer!

So, I made a grid in photoshop and played around with various dimensions - sending the image back and forth from my computer to my Nexus 10 - and found some dimensions that work perfectly.
Basic
Width: 1940 px
Height: 1250 px
Resolution: 72 ppi
Of course we have to take into account the N10's awesome resolution of 2560x1600, which equates to resolution of 299 ppi. Thus, keeping the aspect ratio the same as above and setting the resolution at an even 300 ppi, we get the following:
Width: 8083 px
Height: 5208 px
Resolution: 300 ppi
[Edit 11/24 - at a reasonable hour in the evening]
I don't know what I was thinking at 3am when I posted the above, but that resolution is outrageously large. Guess what happens when you scale the size back down and keep the same aspect ratio! You get dimensions of
Width: 2560 px
Height: 1650 px
Resolution: 300 ppi
Duh!
So after all that, all there really is to conclude is that you can design your backgrounds for the exact dimensions Google has advertised. That still accounts for scrolling, and will fit quite nicely. I would only note that a height of 1650 seems to fit slightly better. As far as resolution goes, go with whatever you feel is best. IMO, 72 ppi is too low (background seems a little blurry), and 300 ppi is probably too high and creates an unnecessarily large file size. 300 ppi is usually reserved for printing, not computer displays. I would recommend you find something in between that works for you.
Now go design something cool! :highfive:

I sent images back and forth also but never got true results. The TRUE wallpaper size is 3966x2560. This is verified by Google's own wallpaper for the Nexus 10 and this size works perfectly with their crop tool. 3966x2560 is the correct size for the Nexus 10. No need in making them any bigger.
The camera is set at the default setting of 10mp. From reading on the forum I see people use this and don't up the mp to 13, is there a reason or an advantage to using it at a lower mega pixel count?
The shape of the photo is Instagram like with the 13mp. So people use the 10 because the picture measurements are correct.

That's an interesting upside. One of the more common benefits would be for storage purposes. It is a smaller file thanks to using a smaller resolution. That being noted, the obvious downside is that it is a smaller photo.
I would say that smaller resolution doesn't matter, as the megapixel myth still plagues people to this day. However, from what I have read, the 10MP on our G2 is... decent. But apparently the 13MP is where the magic happens.
The only difference is the 16:9 vs 4:3 aspect ratio. The 13mp setting takes advantage of the entire sensor, whereas the 10mp setting crops the top/bottom of the sensor. IMO, it's best to just shoot 13 with the wider field of view, and if needed you can crop after, to whatever aspect ratio you'd like.
I use 13mp. It's 4:3 and is closest to the 3:2 I'm used to and find more pleasing. Not to mention you get more vertical fov.

I basically was rushing to answer. But I meant exactly what you posted. The image ratio. Sorry for not being clear.

What are the disadvantages of lowering camera resolution (shooting at non native resolution)? For example from 16 MP to 8 MP.
The resolution and file size would obviously be smaller but would it reduce quality of photos as well? Would it be better if I taken photos at native resolution and then resize them with some software?

The file size will be smaller and the resolution will be smaller. You wouldn't notice any quality reduction at all. Why not just shoot at 16mp and crop it to your likings anyways? Thats a better option.

Indeed, unless there comes some pixel bind mod there is no real benefit apart from the smaller file size.
Although saying that I ain't that bothered anyway. Have my proper cameras for important pictures, phone is for make do snaps
Shouldn't taking/saving pics be faster when lower resolution is selected?
more megapixels means more details (but when you zoom)
if you want to see photos on phone or regular TV or laptop (without zoom) , there are no difference between 16 or 8 or even 6 megapixel
but if you want to zoom or see on a large screen (cinema!!!) you can see difference
