Wallpaper size on android rom

what's wallpaper size for android rom on HD2 ?

Hi i think it is 960x480.
If the File has this size there is no need for scaling by Android.

If u want full wvga, its 480x800.
if u want ur wallpaper to span across more than 1 screen, its 960x800

But when I choose Home wallpaper, the picture are still cut, stretch

This was bugging me for the longest time and I've finally found the solution. Only way i've been able to get wallpapers to fit without cropping issues(where android zooms into the cropped section) is to use 960x800, this will however make the wallpaper span across all the screens.

Yes, IMO the best resolution is 980x800, there is an option in Launcher Pro though, if you prefer the screen stay still so the image on your home screen stays static.
Launcher Pro > Appearance Settings > Disable wallpaper scrolling.
Problem is kinda hard to find 980, don't use Google or a bunch of porn pops up when you search for exactly 980x800. There was a forum somewhere here on xda that someone posted like 50+ wallpapers all 980x800, can't remember where it's at though =\

[Q] wallpaper resolution

hey guys, im now using htc legend. i have a problem with their wallpaper function. when i try to set the wallpaper by using my own picture, it came out a green box for us to crop and select which part to display the image for wallpaper. can i ask what is the optimal / best resolution? the green box cant seem to stretch to the whole image, most of the time half of the picture only. i m looking forward to display the whole picture as my wallpaper.
sry for my bad english =[ any1 help plx

try getting pics with a resolution of 320*480.

market: wallpaper set & save
640*480 is the best resolution for your wallpapers, .png files will give the best result when using wallpaper set & save

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Wallpaper set&save doesn't work, or better...it works but not in the correct way. If you read the comments on the market you'll see. The guy that made it said (lot of time ago) that he is working to make it works with Android 2.1 & 2.2.
I've lost my faith in that, so I just resize by myself the wallpaper I want to 640x480.

it just works great for me on my stock legend with android 2.1
dunno what your talking about :S

[Q] Creating Wallpapers

Hey guys I am trying to make a custom wallpaper for my MT4G.
From what i understand, the phone is 800x480.
I have 5 "screens" (homescreens i think they are called?)
so each homescreen should be 800x96 right?
I am trying to make a wallpaper that will show a picture centered on each of the homescreens.
I can not seem to get it working.
I resized my initial picture to 800x96 and pasted it in a 800x480 new image 5 wide. It still does not look right on my mt4g.
can anyone offer any pointers?
The first picture is 500x500
The 2nd is 800x480 as described above.

the wallpaper does not scroll as much as the widgets and screens do

[Q] HTC Wildfire Wallpaper Resolution Issue ?

Hi,
Can someone please tell me when getting wallpapers for my homescreen which screen resolution i should be using?
Reason why is i downloaded some from zedge.net and before hand choose my mobile so it only showed wallpapers that are compatible with my phone.
They are 240 x 320. When i choose to set as homescreen wallpaper it shows a box on top of image althou i adjust the box to it's max the whole image is not within the box so ends up only the image that is within the white box is showing.
I am confused as i have some nice wallpapers but i can't benefit from them as the full image is not shown.
Can someone please advise what resolution i should be downloading them in or should i be doing something on the phone before hand to the image?
Thanks

Use dodol wallpaper maker or wallpaper set and save. I usually have wallpapers of 320x480, 480x640 or 640x960.

Hi,
Thanks Dodol Wallpaper Maker has saved the day
Thanks

I make my wallpapers 480x320 in .png and they always work perfectly, and I'm always able to select them fully when cropping.

Wallpaper Not Setting Correctly

I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a wallpaper issue I am having. I downloaded some 960x540 (or 540x960) wallpaper images and when I try to set them as the wallpaper using the stock ROM's cropping tool, the cropping tool displays the wallpaper image very large so that you are only able to crop a small portion of it to use as the background. I am wondering why it should not just be able to crop the entire image because it is the exact same size as the screen? Another strange thing I found was that sometimes I use Zedge to download wallpaper and they are not the correct size of the display and are usually larger (i.e. 800x480), but they show up smaller in the crop tool and I am able to crop a larger portion of them. Can anyone tell me how to resolve this? For now I am using an app called Wallpaper Changer which witll set the wallpaper to fit the screen exactly, but I kind of didn't want to have another app running for this. Thank you in advance!

I would l like some info on this too. Same issue here. Downloading correct resolution image but only able to display a chunk of it.

This is actually the Android OS's fault. Because Android is made to work in both Portrait and on Landscape (even if your launcher locks orientation), selling the wallpaper will encompass both. I ran into this problem myself when I went to make my own wallpaper. The easiest solution is to find a square image, preferably 960x960 or larger. I've included the wallpaper I made and how it looks on my phone.
