QuckPic
You could use PicSpeed wallpapers. Also has alot of other neat wallpapers.
Thanks guys for so quick replies. Will try & update u soon.
Try an app called image 2 wallpaper. Works like a dream.

I use a combination of QuicPic and/or Nova Launcher
Highly recommend Nova launcher as you can set it to scroll or lock the background and crop it to your liking
+1 for Image 2 wallpaper!
i have the same problem.
just rooted the phone to install GMD Hide Soft Keys, and now the wallpapers span unto the soft key bar and then its just black background.
tried image 2 wallpaper and still the problem persists.
any other way to get the wallpaper unto the bottom of screen.
thanks in advance.
Between using QuickPic, and setting my Apex Launcher setting to : "Single Screen (non-scrolling)" I can accurately plan for portrait orientation images for the phone, rather than to have to think about how big I need to make it for scrolling.
PS: If anyone knows the Nova Launcher's equivalent to "Single Screen (non-scrolling)", let me know because I haven't found it yet.

You just need to create your wallpaper with the correct resolution. There are threads where this is discussed.

For all of those asking this question i have found a solution. In android market download the free live wallpaper "multi picture" you may find it by simply typing live wallpapers in the search bar. When you go to set the live wallpaper click settings and change the picture source to the the image you desire and set the transition effect to none, then be sure the pic size is set to full screen. This will give you any full image as a solid background with no resize or cropping needed.

I am not sure if it is when you are running stock. I am running tabooney custom rom which is deodexed and has several tweaks including kernel tweaks. It doesnt slow anything on mine. All i can suggest to you is to be sure that transition effects is set to none within the settings menu of the live wallpaper itself.

Nice App
Great Tip
It even puts a different desktop on each screen. I love this app.
Thanks Much
Another way of doing it is with Wallpaper Wizardii:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.twistedapps.wallpaperwizardrii&feature=search_result
The app works only in portrait here but sets the wallpapers just as it should. You can select for the wall to be scrollable or not plus other fine tuning options.
Thanked for the tip, the wallpaper scaling was just downright horrible before
Hi Guys,
I want to know if there is any app to set/display the home screen wallpaper as it is (i.e. without stretching the wallpaper).
Currently I am using Multi-Live Wallaper to do so, but it makes my ARC a bit laggy..any other better alternatives.
EDIT: use WALLPAPER WIZZARDRII
Custom launchers (GO, ADW...) have the option to disable the wallpaper scrolling.

Any suggestions guys???

I think your only options are to make custom pages yourself with the set dimensions so it doesnt stretch out; or download a wall paper app, the one that i'm using is HD wallpapers, and when you find the one you want, they give you several wallpaper settings; 1 page, 2 page or full. So in theory, you are not stretching it out. Its hard to explain but give that app a try or make your own custom wallpaper with the proper dimensions.

I use QuickPic from Market. You have the choise between "scrollable wallpaper" and only "one screen". Works a treat ...

Hey everyone, I'm digging around trying to find this wallpaper for my Galaxy Tab 10.1 sized so it crops right. Anyone happen to have it?

Just use this app "Simple Image Wallpaper Free" it'll set ant wallpaper you'd like without cropping. You'll find it in "Live Wallpapers" and from settings browse to choose your wallpaper.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ridgelineapps.simpleimagewallpaper
Good luck!
Check out MultiPicture Live Wallpaper too. It also sets wallpapers without cropping.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture
You can specify a folder for wallpapers and set it so double tapping the background on the home screen cycles through different wallpapers. Simple and lag-free.
I have a folder with over a hundred wallpapers in it and change them whenever i feel like it simply by double tapping the homescreen.
Thanks guys!
Anything equal or above 3 megapixels should be fine for cropping...atleast wont be at all pixelated...try custom Google image search....

Hmm..that's odd. I'm using the CM9 ICS WiFi preview and everything's buttery smooth. Anyway there are plenty of alternatives I guess.
Alright guys
I recently installed Omega Rom on my I9505 and for the life of me I cannot remember how to make the wallpaper stay centered. It seems to be going off to the side as if I have other pages on my desktop. I only use one page with icons and a widget and want the wallpaper to be centered. I think I seen an option for this somewhere but cant remember where.
Anyone have any info on this?

If you are using the default Touchwiz launcher which I am sure you are, it's designed to scroll
the wallpaper. There are plenty of other launchers you can install from the playstore which
have options and settings which can enable or disable the wallpaper scrolling.
When you go to the playstore it's best to install 5-6 different launchers, that way you can
check them out and see which one you prefer.
Good luck!

Hi I've just flashed foxhound rom 0.8 on to my s4 but when I go to change my lock screen wallpaper, the option to choose from gallery is not there. only from the default wallpapers. for home screen the options come out but not for lock screen. Any idea why? I can't Post on the developers thread yet. so if anyone has a solution or could help me post there it would be much appreciated. a couple of guys asked about it before but no one gave a solution.
Thanks.

What launcher are you using? How about navigating to your preferred image in Gallery, then trying to set it as wallpaper from there?
Im using Nova Launcher. Ive tried that too. I can only set as Wallpaper, not Lock screen Wallpaper. I cant ask the foxhound developers as i cant post there yet since i just signed up.
Hmm noticed the same thing here. Previous on TW, able to set lock screen wallpaper from gallery or from settings. Now on Google Edition, doesn't seem to have this option

Note that doing the next few steps will reset your default app preferences, disabled apps etc.
In Settings, Application Manager, hit menu then Reset App Preferences.. read the warning!
This would help IF whatever's causing your problem is actually a 3rd party app that "clashes" (in a way) with the stock Gallery app
edit: also.. if that doesn't help, maybe try changing wallpapers from within touchwiz launcher, THEN relaunch nova
Tried to do what you said adrian, but still no go. When i click on display, wallpaper, lock screen, still only shows me one option there 'wallpapers' . No gallery or option for any 3rd party picture viewer. Could someone maybe help me post on the foxhound 0.8 for i9505 thread?
Thanks alot.
download QuickPic, pretty certain you can set lockscreen wallpaper using that

Correct. Been using that app for two years now. It's way smoother and quicker than the stock Gallery app and has some very useful features as well (excluding unwanted folders etc.) :good:
