Full HD wallpapers for 5" 1080p Phones? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Ones that are scaled for the mobile displays and not the desktop/tablet ones? Been looking to switch up my wallpaper a bit, but the ones I grab off the Internet just don't look good on the phone the majority of the time.

For the moment I am just rotating & cropping desktop 1440p wallpaper in Nova Launcher. If there are more 1080X1920 portrait wall paper I'd like to see them.

Try ZEDGE

I use an app called ZEDGE - you can download and install hundreds (thousands) of Hi Definition, awesome quality Wall Papers - I personally like wall papers that have a sort of 3d effect - with depth to the image - and I found quite a few from ZEDGE - You will find it here;

As an added bonus, you can also download free ringtones, notifications and alarms. I love it - good luck - hope it works for you.
If I have helped, don't forget to say thanks.

I posted in the themes sub forums that the correct resolution for the phone is 2160x1920. This results in the most detailed backgrounds. Personally I've found there to be a lack of wallpapers for my taste in this resolution so I resorted to the slightly more common 2560x1920 wallpapers. It crops wide, but height is perfect.

I found a nice website with a lot of 2160X1920 wallpaper for GS4 here :http://www.mygalaxys4wallpaper.com/gallery.php?gallery_id=21_Space&paging=0
Just updated my own Wallpaper.

pics work too; i snapped this one the other day, desaturated it, and cropped it.

I find good pictures then I make the HD background. For best support I crop and scale them to 1920x1920. Then it works for vertical and horizontal screen without anomalies.

Well, to get full HD wallpapers I can only recommend http://fhdwallpapers.weebly.com/ . The site is easy to use and browse, and it's commited to providing only vertical (portrait) 1080p wallpapers for mobiles; some high quality stuff there actually.
If you want full HD wallpapers with the status bar shadow effect (my personal favorite), then go to http://fhdwallpapers.weebly.com/shadows.html .

Wallpapers...a little advice

The Nexus One is capable of using 16M we all know this!
But the stock gallery aka 3DGallery is not only limited to 65k but also limits the wallpapers set there to 65k, resulting with color banding and losing color richness.
I found a very helpfull app for free on the Market: Wallpaper Set and Save You browse for a wallpapers folder,then choose a wallpaper and set it!
Voila! you have now a rich 16m colors wallpaper of your choice, no more color banding
Wow, thank you! I didn't know there was a diffference between setting in gallery and WS&S.
I can confirm that there is a better color representation when setting in WS&S. It's not drastic, but it does remove the abrupt color change spots (color banding).
+1!
I don't know if anyone knows this, but on stock launcher, as well as Helix the home screens run a lot faster without a wallpaper (versus Live Wallpaper, or just static image).
To disable wallpapers just set the wall paper as a live wallpaper and open your favorite task manager app. End the process of just the live wallpaper, and not of the live wallpaper chooser. For most cases it should close out only the wallpaper and doesn't apply the default Nexus neural network live wallpaper. You should then have speeds comparable to Home++'s launcher, etc.
Of course once you reboot your phone or allow the wallpaper to reopen you'll lose the setting.

where can i get this wallpaper at?
btw have you guys seen the bokeh wallpaper? i personally love it and i think its better than the desire live wallpaper (i flashed the sense rom just to rip the wall from the rom but i am having trouble installing. its apk if you guys wanna try it)
Has anyone noticed that wallpapers are still banding with this app now? It used to work perfectly, but in the past few months (maybe since froyo? not sure) high gradient wallpapers are banding again, such as the HTC Desire rainbow, grey-to-white snow sceneries, windows7 betta fish wallpaper, etc. Anyone have any suggestions on how to make my wallpapers stop banding again?

You probably already found this somewhere else since it's been so long, but here it is. Sorry for the delay.
No problems at all, all the pics are working with 16m colors and no banding,it has nothing to do with FW anyway,the N1 is capable of 16m but it's the HTC heritage app ''gallery'' that is limited.
Use only Wallpapers Set and Save from the Market not the gallery or gallery 3D

[Q] set wallpaper w/o cropping?

I'm working on a new homescreen set up for my epic, and i've taken a bunch of inspiration from here. I've got my new dock how I want it, but my problem is the damn wallpaper.
i have a .png at 480px x 800px but the phone keeps forcing me to crop it. I need it to be full resolution and not scroll (which i have told LP to prevent).
How can i accomplish this?
(I'll throw in the wallpaper just for funsies...)
multipicture live wallpaper will do what you want

I've been testing that today; but i'm not happy with the results.
for starters, its slow. sometimes its as many as 10sec before my wallpaper renders (which defeats the shortcuts I built into it).
also, the registration is off. it isn't a complete deal breaker, but i spent a good bit of time tweaking the layout in Illustrator, so i want it to be *how* i designed it...
(screens attached for clarity)
Change the image size to 960x800. Wont have to crop.
I ran into the cropping thing when I first got my Epic, too. If you tap-hold in the cropping area, IIRC, you can drag it to expand the area it's using for cropping.
Just drag the cropping area's corners so it covers the entire 960x800 image, and you're good. =)

[Q] Wallpapers

Hi!
Where I can download some Wallpapers for Epic 4g (not live) and how can I install it?
Thank you!
just take any pic u like and dump it on the sd card.. then set it as your wallpaper??
And if you're not comfortable doing that, just search "wallpaper" on the android market. You will find plenty of ..apps

4walled.org is a pretty good site for wall papers. Mind the NSFW filter though.. There are some straight up hardcore pornography pics available.
I like using Zedge, search for it in the market.

Try Mabilo Wallpapers. They claim to have over 50,000 images but the app also has an auto rotate feature which I really like. I have it set to every 15 minutes and noticed absolutely no effect on battery life. The only drawback is that they're not high res but to me they look more than passable. Another one that I like is called Backgrounds. They have high res images and a rotation option as well.

Wallpaper problem solved!!!!!!

Hey guys was looking around because I know we all have had problems with wallpaper sizes........I think I found the solution ( not sure if it has been mentioned ....just thought I might help) just try using a programme called multipicture live wallpaper that can be downloaded free from the market........ it automatically resizes any pic to fit and also has options to change wallpapers by double tapping and also have different pics on different screens.......hope I would have helped someone out there........enjoy

No not really, i've posted on here about 10 times that 1610x1280 fits perfectly, people disagree and quote blah, then 2 days later they're back here again winging that their wallpaper doesn't fit.
hahahhaha oops, sorry man , obviously i havent seen it before, didnt mean to steal ur thunder ;P just trying to help
quick question, did you try the program? its pretty cool though
It seems to use Live Wallpaper. Can you make it work with just regular wallpaper?
I created a thread about this over at tabletroms and I also created a png grid overlay that allows you to center images on the screen. Also I have filmed video tutorials over there on how to use these files to create nd center your own wallpapers on honeycomb. enjoy
well becaus i am not a frequent poster, i cant post the link. can be found at tablet roms dot com and do search for wallpaper, thread is titled that. may also healp to search for albertwertz
I've tried this app...it works pretty good but as the other poster said....as long as the resolution is correct...then it's just nice to have and not a necessity.
Yeah ofcourse resolution would count......but yeah its not too bad

any 1600x1200 wallpaper or higher will work just fine.
the actual size is 1980x1408
Personally I have no issue with the image scrolling left & right. It does annoy me though that honeycomb zooms the image and moves it up and down when you go into the apps menu or widget menu...
I posted this solution in the original themes and apps thread; it actually looks MUCH better from a clarity standpoint than cropped oversized wallpapers. Of course, if you're centering and resizing you will have identical quality BUT you will not have a giant black bar across the bottom of your screen when you switch to portrait. If you love switching wallpapers and you use high quality SLRs and such this is the only way to go.

Share your Wallpapers

It's been hard finding good wallpapers that actually fit this phone correctly without making it look bad. So anyone want to share some wallpapers that actually look good on our phone?

A good app that I use is Wallpaper Wizardrii from the market, and I believe it's free. Pick any of your wallpapers you have saved and it'll automatically set it to fit your screen size, and you can make it either scrollable or nonscrollable. Works perfect for me. In fact, my current wallpaper is sized for my computer, and this app sized it perfectly for my phone.

try this apps :
https://market.android.com/details?id=wallpapers.santabanta.com&feature=search_result
Sorry that version doesn't have the date cropped, but should be easy to fix as you're setting it as wallpaper. Yes, it's an out of focus pic of the screen of a dvd player displaying r00t, but imo that's freakin awesome.
Forget where I found this 1 but sadbot is cool too.

I tried the app,but some wallpapers still look messed up. I'll upload a picture later.
I've been using this one for a while now:
Use the app called 'Zedge', It is the best app for wallpapers, ringtones and notifications. Check it out on the market

Hot summer
feeling hot this summer chk this out ,for all walls download from the link below

Here's a quick collection I did and I assure you they will look great!!
* most of these images aren't mine, I just found them on the net then resized for our screens, sharpened, corrected colors, blabla... I take no credit for them.
You can download the pack from here: http://www.multiupload.com/TK3N8RQEVJ.
As a side note, some of these backgrounds actually have interesting... backgrounds.
For example, "deep field" is an image made by Hubble, showing the furthest reaches of the Universe (light emitted ~ 13.5 billion years ago), "cherenkov" is an actual picture of a nuclear reactor (nuclear radiation isn't green, like in the movies, but that very cool blue) and "vitruvian", if you didn't know already is inspired by DaVinci's Vitruvian Man.
I'm currently switching between staredad and vitruvian, I love them both so much!
Two of my favourite background. Very nice with Laucher Pro and default icon
Anyone have the stock HTC Sensation 4G Wallpaper? (not the unlocked HTC Sensation color wallpaper)

Now, a little backstory: the pictures depicting the International Space Station are real (and pretty awesome), mars.png is an actual photo of a sunset on the planet Mars and atmosphere is an image made by the crew of the ISS (you can see the troposphere, stratosphere - more info here: http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap100623.html).
Hope you like 'em!
*Blabla, I take no credit in making these images... I just resized, sharpened etc.
