Samsung Galaxy s3 General??
Anyway.
Samsung have seemed to change the way wallpaers show up on the s3.
I myself wants to have a full wallpaper on my desktop rather then haveing to crop it thus the whole picture not showing.
I think Samsung has gone backwards with this feature.
Do any of you guys actually own a S3??
Try changing the resolution of the image to the S3 resolution as I'm certain it'll fix it bit there will be a quality decrease.

This is the Samsung Galaxy 3 (i5800/i5801) forum NOT the Galaxy SIII forum (i9300)
Oh well doesn't matter. Post the picture here (full size) and I'll see what I can do. I'm an advanced Photoshop and picture editor I can probably make it look right. Still I'd go ask the S3 forum to see if they have a fix.

No lol you understood completely wrong . He has the galaxy S3 but he wants to know how to do full screen wallpapers.
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
This is the fix!
Its a fault or redesign of the Gallery on the SIII. I've fixed this by adding the 4.0.4 stock Gallery app from a Cyanogen rom and using that instead. It's an APK so put it on your phone and install it, use that to set backgrounds as it crops properly. I've attached it for you.
Install quickpic from the market
some1 moved the thread to galaxy s3 forums
i'm a samsung fan myself.. i love samsung, but i'm not a samsung maximum fanatic .. LOL
i'll keep buying their phones as long as they keep making good phones, i'm really not loyal to samsung.. if next year the galaxy s4 would be something i can't like, i won't buy it... i'd choose the one that i like no matter what brand.. i wouldn't go and buy the phone out of loyalty and boast that i have the best phone in the world.. LOL
There are a few apps that can solve your problem. Go search in play store.

Yes totally. The word goes out to NB. He is the man. In termed if my next phone. Well I can say that even though galaxy s is almost 2 years old it still has good support from xda because of the awesome hardware. So next phone will have to have hardware just as good or it won't get much support.

They mean Samsung Touchwiz ICS.
They bloat and put a hell more features and the package is about twice what AOSP ROM is.
Look at CM7 size and compare to Froyo Stock.

I liked more the galaxy s3
i9305 fills the weak spots of the i9300. Such as the dc-hspa and even more 4G. Aswell as the 2GB ram. This would have made the s3 look even better

Gf has a N4, I have a SGS3. Still prefer the SGS3 purely because I'm using a 64gb sd card and need the extra storage. 16gb is nowhere near enough. Apart from that I do love the N4.
i like S3 better, certainly!:good:
Mostly all my phone came from samsung. But most my friends has the nexus some reason. Not a keen fan though..
Samsung needs to stop breaking Android with all their crap.
If you want to add it to the phone Samsung then use a Fricken APP! One we can delete if we want to.
Oh and the dialer SUCKS, adding lag and crap to the dialer so you can add some features is NOT ok.
I really want the Nexus experience with the Samsung hardware. IS THIS TO MUCH TO ASK.

Dude, Nexus phones are so bare without features. Some Samsung improvements like screen mode and smart stay are awesome. Have you seen the settings panel for the Nexus? It's so bare without any ability to customize it. I got sick of that phone so fast.

Hi!
I am talking about the amazing true multitasking available in the NOTE 2
I googled a bit and I only found a version for the S3 and the S2
Any tip for install it in my Nexus 7?

You could always ask one of the people who ported it to the S3 or S2.
I think that'll be your best option, to be honest.

The Note is on the Touchwiz framework...the app would basically have to be rewritten from the ground up. OR someone would have to build a Rom on Touchwiz framework.
Short answer is nobody is going to do this...Not going to happen.

I've seen a custom rom using touchwiz I'm not sure if it would be possible to use that and then use a port for multiview from the note 2
there is an app called multiscreen, i havent looked how it works on the s3 but it looks a cool app, been tempted to get it.

this is exactly right. Its very much encoded into the touchwiz framework. So much so that there's a port of the entire gnote2 Rom ported to the att galaxy s3 but the multiview is still inop

I use stick it player for pop up play like the s3
The US variants of the S3 still don't have it. I would assume a non touchwiz device wouldn't be getting it before the us variants do. Maybe the guys who ported TW to n7 could do it?
Hi there I have a Nexus 4 , but before I had a Samsung Galaxy S3 , I kinda miss the Touchwizz features and apps
So I wanted to ask if is there any dev who want to try port Touchwiz Framework to Nexus 4!
This way we could have almost a Galaxy S4 with less resolution !

First why would you even want TouchWiz? I mean... nothing beats the slick look of a clean nexus
But I've read a topic about this I think, is this what you're looking for? Do note that you need CM for this to work

Then sorry to say but it's just a cheapass who buys a Nexus in the hope to get the same thing as a device nearly double in price...
And then still, TouchWiz, rly :/ Personally I'd go for the theme cause... you can delete a theme

Not likely possible as if someone wants stock android, they'll flash a custom ROM. (A custom ROM close to stock android).

Install the original s5 touchwiz. Check the themes-apps forum. I'm using it now, without any bugs and works flawlessly. I love it Also using the new s5 browser which is much better and smooth than the s4 one and also the new accuweather widget
The new touchwiz should ALREADY be available to at least s3 and s4. Samsung should realize that abandoning older hardware won't make me buy the their new phone. Instead it will make me not to buy from Samsung ever again.
