I've tried resizing and everything it just gets blurry when smaller size when bigger size its clearer but the pic still isnt scaled to hd2 screen am i doing something wrong? is there an app that can claim non market pics and claim and get them to fit? i have all these epic pics but they look like **** unless i get wallpapers from market
thanks
your images should be 960x800
upscaling can make them look bad, make sure you are using a fairly big image to start with
You should check out an app from the market called "crop wallpaper ". It does what your looking for I use it all the time.

Thanks alot =)
it looks amazing.
Great tutorial James, thanks. By the way, would you happen to know how to change the overscroll effect from the blue glow to the bounce effect?
Not sure.

Hey, i'm not sure on how to do this exactly. I'm pretty sure it's hard coded into an apps menu:

@James Harrison

Very nice tutorial! I want to do this on my DHD, but i think i'll just wait for my Note to arrive next week.

James - Great video. Can you let me know what the music app is and also the application drawer app is. I searched marketplace for '3', for the music app, and nothing similar appeared. Thanks fella.

ADW EX Launcher with Multi Picture Live Wallpaper.
Great vid, now I have this to add to my project list for the week. I need to go from android newb to pro with a rooted phone with updated kernel and a custom launcher set up.
Fabulous tutorial. When I get my note Ill try not to mess up what you instructed.
One question though. With the 3d UI can I use live/active wallpapers (the ones that move like the moving galaxy) instead of pictures?
Static

Hi, unfortunately it's only static wallpapers i'm afraid
Static screen problem
This question is for James, I presume, the maker of this tutorial. I've followed all your steps for the 3D UI, but, for some reason, the picture is staying static, there is no cube effect when I scroll screens, and yes, screen scrolling is enabled on AWD Ex. Help? =/
Did you enable the transition effects in Multi picture live wallpaper as well?
For me it works perfectly on Go Launcher Ex. I sat the transition there as well to outside cube.

Brilliant tutorial mate, loved the UI and some really cool apps as well... will def me downloading some of them...
what keyboard do you use? (app)
Has anyone figured out how to set a picture as wallpaper without it being all zoomed in and crappy looking? This is really annoying and the phone doesn't seem to have many options for fixing this

Use a HIGHER res picture! This will solve the issue!
I use the app "Wallpaper Wizardrii" and it usually solves all of my wallpaper woes.

This worked perfect thanks! I didn't think a 5mp picture from my old phone was too low of a resolution but also the stock photo crop tool when setting wallpaper sucks!
Use Wallpapyrus

The screen resolution on this beast is awesome... But I have a question. I find it impossible to find good wallpapers. It always gets pixilated when set. Anyone know a good site or wallpaper app for this resolution?

I've been using the ridiculous 8 megapixel captures that Forza 4 can produce. If you're a car person, you can tell me any car (2013 model or older) and I can see if its in the game, and I can get you a wallpaper for it. They look great (they're like 3,000+ pixels wide). Otherwise, I've had mixed experience with finding wallpapers.
So I'm not the only one with such a problem I'm not a car person... But I do like the Mercedes SLR... I have never put a car for wallpaper either on phone or on tablet.. First time will be now

Give me a couple days and I'll get you a Google Drive link for the gorgeous Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR 722 Any particular colour, or traditional McLaren silver? Or perhaps the Stirling Moss edition?
I've found 1920x1200 wallpapers work fairly well, as well as anything larger. 1280x800-sized ones don't look terrible, but its hard finding huge images and renders.
Don't care of the colour...It just should look good and sexy

Wilco. I'll link you a sample of what the image will be like, quality-wise, in the meantime. But yeah, anything 1080p or larger looks fine, even if its not a 4MP image like the screen is. I'll try to grab the SLR tonight.

Been using 500 FirePaper for a few days now. Hands sown the best wallpaper app. So many photos categories to choose from with zero impact on battery drain.
Chainfire did it again.

Gainos Fresh Wallpaper. It automatically retrieves new high quality high res photos either from Flickr or 500px or a match of the two based on a preset time. You never have the same wallpaper again. You can also preset tags if you're into something particular. It caches the last 10 wallpapers if you want to go back to anything you really like or missed.

Wallbase HD for wallpapers, and wRotatr app from Paranoid Android team. Perfect combo

+1 for 500 firepaper. They look amazing on our screens and I'm never bored with them. Plus almost 0 impact on battery or performance.
I have been trying Advanced Wallpaper Switcher and so far its been great
+1 advanced wallpaper switcher, very beautiful gallery HD
I'm liking 500 firepaper. I've installed other live wallpapers that promise to deliver random images, but this is the first one that actually looks good on my Tab 2.
Trinity wallpaper pack or minimal wallpapers. At least, that's my preferred style

Is there anyway to see the photos on firepaper and chose what we like, other than categories.
