Wallpaper

Does anyone know why the wallpapers get screwed up when they are applied... i mean i've got some really cool wallpapers but when I set them they get zoomed out of proportion...
Anyone know why?

Because of the resolution.. Install dodol wallpaper maker from market.. It allows to set the full image as wallpaper

If I remember correctly, the picture has to be 480x800 pixels in order to cover the whole screen.

Fullscreen Wallpaper

Does anyone know of a way to use your own picture or a downloaded picture as a fullscreen wallpaper in honeycomb?
The cropping tool sucks, any help would be greatly appreciated.

dude just read the forum before you post new thread its all over the place
anyway you can use one of those apps:
tablet wallpaper
or
wizardii

+1 for Wallpaper Wizardrii. Find it in the market, it does it perfectly.

was going to say same thing, tablet wallpaper rocks

I go to a website called HD Wallpapers, they have hundreds of wallpapers at different resolutions. Just choose 1280X800 which fit the Tab screen perfectly.

I also use MultiPicture Live Wallpaper app to auto change wallpapers after 1 mins.

i can't find tablet wallpaper

I'm using PicSpeed Wallpapers. Very nice quality, scrollable and frequent additions.

I use Backgrounds Box Wallpapers HD. I never got tablet wallpaper to work.
But searching the forum might help

Multi live wallpaper.... It gives the exact size with no distortion.

Wallpaper

What website is best for galaxy tab wallpaper? Also whenever I find a wallpaper it never never sets it properly. It always either cuts it off or makes it 10 times bigger than the screen. I know the Tab is 1280x800 but it just doesn't seem to fit it even though its the correct resolution...

I'm using multipicture live and it allows you to crop and set wallpaper s as well as let you set multiple wallpapers on all your screens. Hope this helps

I use the app Droid Iris for finding wallpapers. Same as mentioned above I also use Multipicture Live Wallpaper to set the image to fullscreen.

Wallpaper Resolution

I download wallpapers off of interfacelift.com, which resolution should I download them for, for this device? Every wallpaper I set is blurry (aside from LWP's and stock wallpapers). Camera pics and other ones are blurry.

I've been using 1280x800 wallpapers but I still get zoomed in poorly cropped wallpapers unless I use the stock ones. You could try any HD picture and use an app like wallpaper wizardrii to scale it nicely

Sets your wallpaper correctly with correct resolution and placement, and it's free.

I tried that one but even with a single wallpaper and no transition, my tablet lags. I don't get lag with a standard wallpaper though. Maybe I'll need to re-try and play with settings

Hmmm which ROM are you using?
Set to "no transitions" here, and not experiencing any "lag", however it does take a second or two to initially set the wallpaper on boot up.

I don't know if it's just me, but every time I try wallpaper wizardii, at first, it fits nicely, and there is no problem, but after a few hours, the tablet becomes laggy. Especially the home screen transition is very laggy. Same goes for Multi live wallpaper. Although this one is laggy from the start.
I just couldn't believe the high rating of the apps. And I'm guessing it's only me who's having the problems..

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but here's the solution...
Download Wallpaper Changer by j4velin. Download whatever wallpapers off of interfacelift (I use 1680x1050, but other resolutions should work), put them onto the SD card. Add the wallpapers to the rotation. There ya go. Note that this app has a "Change wallpaper" widget. Add that to your desktop for quick wallpaper changes.

fwiw the default Res on the stock wallpaper "default_wallpaper.jpg" is 1920 x 1408
Crazy but true.

[Q] Creating own wallpaper, what is the right size?!

Hey guys,
quick question.
I make a wallpaper from my own picture cropped to 800x1280. Perfect right? I load it on my tablet it looks great but when I set it to wallpaper it forces me to crop and doesnt get past 1/4 of the picture vertically. I thought the resolution was that size? Am I missing something here?
Thanks

Pinch out to resize the crop window.

Ther iz a simple way.... go to system- framework- frameworkres.apk- draweble- ther iz a wallpaper called defaultwallpaper.png.... reset ur wallpaper to dat size.....
Hit thanx if i helped.....

I cant access that file to find out the size. Do you know it?
And to responder#2. I didn't mean a simple pinching of resizing the crop window. I got that. What I meant was it won't let me "pinch" out all the to my 800x1280 picture. It limits my selection area.
BTW I had this problem since day 1 of android usage. I just never cared enough to ask since phone displays are so small, but being this is my first tablet..a wallpaper makes a difference now.
Does anyone else know what I'm talking about?
Go get your own favorite 800x1280 picture. Download it, save it to gallery. And set wallpaper..you will not be able to set the ENTIRE image as wallpaper.

Figured it out.

basically, download PicSpeed Wallpapers
Then when you set your pic as Wallpaper choose picspeed. And they offer different orientation.

Thanks man that app worked like a charm

PicSpeed has absolutely no effect - images still badly cropped when set as wallpaper.
Has anyone sussed this obvious and stupid problem?

Picspeed worked great for me, no more weird cropping on my wallpapers.
