Worked on a few Wallpapers which are very close to the Galaxy S5. The saturation and hue have been tweaked so they look crisp and vibrant on our Nexus 5's display.
Enjoy.

Thanks, but It would be better if the resolution is 1080 x 1920 :fingers-crossed:

Thanks. The resolution is really low for this phone though. It's good for an iPhone, but not a N5 or any other 1080p screen. If you made it in photoshop, just make the canvas larger.
Thanks :highfive: I like HD Samsung Wallpaper

Thanks, but they have the wallpaper scaled up to 1080 x 1920 which is quite pixelated.

I downloaded my own wallpaper
1920 X 1200
set it and its still kinda blurry
whos knows why?
Updates : 2560x1600 will work
Thanks to seshmaru!
it wont let just set it as is
it always make me crop them and the crop square is always smaller then the actual picture
Because you need a higher resolution image. It's a scrolling background you know.

so how high?
1920 X 1080?
1920 x 1200?
higher, its its over 2000 px in width, if you want wallpapers 2560x1650 wallpapers are a pretty common format and scale much better.
that seems like a giant res
its 1200x1200 + homescreen scrolling and zooming, so yeah.

so do we all agree on 2560 x 1650?
i'll try that
ok so its not blurry anymore
but it will shift down after you set it
i'm sure the minimum resolution of wallpaper in eee pad is 1920x1408
I had a terrible time finding the right res, then found walpaper wizardi app. Some glitches but takes anypicu throw at it and BAM perfect res!

Hey guys, i've been downloading wallpapers non-stop from google images, i just typed in the resolution of "2560x1600" and found some really sick wallpapers.
Can anyone who already has their nexus 10 confirm the correct wallpaper resolution required?
Bearing in mind 2560x1600 is before the scrolling that it does.
Thanks!
It has to be at least 2560 × 2560 because you also need to account for screen orientation. Good news is I'm pretty sure it doesn't scroll the wallpaper unlike the Nexus 4, so you shouldn't need something too absurd - I guess 2560² should be fine,

I believe it is with a 3rd-party launcher; idk about stock though.
Well mine arrived and it does scroll, can turn it off with other apps.
Need to find the right resolution so most of the picture still fits when you have to do the crop thing setting wallpapers...

I'm also looking for this. 2560x1600 is the lanscape resolution on each home screen. What is the total landscape resolution? Is it 5120x1600?
I have your answer!

So, I made a grid in photoshop and played around with various dimensions - sending the image back and forth from my computer to my Nexus 10 - and found some dimensions that work perfectly.
Basic
Width: 1940 px
Height: 1250 px
Resolution: 72 ppi
Of course we have to take into account the N10's awesome resolution of 2560x1600, which equates to resolution of 299 ppi. Thus, keeping the aspect ratio the same as above and setting the resolution at an even 300 ppi, we get the following:
Width: 8083 px
Height: 5208 px
Resolution: 300 ppi
[Edit 11/24 - at a reasonable hour in the evening]
I don't know what I was thinking at 3am when I posted the above, but that resolution is outrageously large. Guess what happens when you scale the size back down and keep the same aspect ratio! You get dimensions of
Width: 2560 px
Height: 1650 px
Resolution: 300 ppi
Duh!
So after all that, all there really is to conclude is that you can design your backgrounds for the exact dimensions Google has advertised. That still accounts for scrolling, and will fit quite nicely. I would only note that a height of 1650 seems to fit slightly better. As far as resolution goes, go with whatever you feel is best. IMO, 72 ppi is too low (background seems a little blurry), and 300 ppi is probably too high and creates an unnecessarily large file size. 300 ppi is usually reserved for printing, not computer displays. I would recommend you find something in between that works for you.
Now go design something cool! :highfive:

I sent images back and forth also but never got true results. The TRUE wallpaper size is 3966x2560. This is verified by Google's own wallpaper for the Nexus 10 and this size works perfectly with their crop tool. 3966x2560 is the correct size for the Nexus 10. No need in making them any bigger.
Hello everybody,
I have Galaxy s 4 I9505 (lte model)
Only today I noticed it was just me I see blurred images (social networks like Facebook Instagram, etc.) and I checked with a friend who has a Galaxy 3 and I see a lot better and sharp - not blurry at all
How can this be seen better Galaxy 3 and Galaxy 4 blurry ??
And how can you fix it?
Thanks!

Bear in mind that the S3 and S4 have different resolutions:
S3 1280 x 720 306PPI
S4 1920 x 1080 441PPI
If your app is serving up an image from the web server and it has a size of 640 x 310 then on the S3 its size will be doubled, but on the S4 it will be tripled. This will make it look blurrier if it is taking up the same physical real estate.
The facebook app is formatted so that the screen of the S3 and S4 look the same, but the S4 requires a lot more pixels to achieve the same look.

The developer would need to update their app to push bigger pictures to you. You have a better quality screen on the S4, but this only shows when you give it better quality pictures. If you give it images that it needs to stretch, then they will not look as good.
There is nothing that you can realistically do to your phone to improve the situation.

I'm having the same problem. Strange pixelated images on Web pages and even YouTube most of the time.
I have tried finding a solution every where, but everyone just seems to want to ignore this problem. Screw the help on these sites.
Just set the resolution to 6mp of the camera. On the internet, the images are compressed, so if they are bigger, they will be even more compressed to take less space, and compression reduce the quality image.

I implore you to go to www.wallbase.cc to download some of the wallpapers there. You can search random at the resolution of your liking. Here is a direct link to random wallpapers @ 2560 X 1600 which compliments this tablet perfectly:
http://wallbase.cc/random?section=w...x1600&thpp=32&purity=100&board=21&aspect=0.00
Do not save the thumbnail. Click the one you want, it will open the big picture in another tab, save that, then go view that in your gallery.
Prepare......your eyes will melt
Just trust me. I've been using wallbase for years on my desktop but nothing compares to a high res photo on the Galaxy Note 2014. Simply amazing!
They have some nice pictures. It amazes me how many people apparently have a picture of some scantily clad lady as their background, almost half of the pictures on random mode are of that variety. I never understood why you would want that on your tablet always, for everyone to see, when you hand the tablet to your mom, your co-worker...
Anyway, what I actually wanted to ask: Wouldn't you want the wallpaper to be wider than the screen resolution? Otherwise it would have to zoom into the picture to be able to scroll the image when you switch homescreen pages. Or did you disable that?

Actually not........
2560 x 1600 is the best for viewing but if you want it for wallpaper the smallest resolution should be 2560 or as close as possible.
Interfacelift.com has photos up to 3840 x 2400, they have a dropdown box that you pick the size that you want from.

I see...my wallpaper is stationary so that resolution works for me that's how the note 2014 came out of the box.
Thanks for the link will definitely check that out. Always good to have more options!
Thanks for sharing bro, This makes the tablet even better . This is really appreciated
i don't know if this is compatible with the new Note 10.1 but Samsung Display has released an app that has some awesome eye-popping wallpapers included in it

I stocked on some 1600p wallpapers just to have them resized, but then found this app, its a "fake" live wallpaper, allows to set a pic as wallp w/o cropping or resizing it one bit and big thankz to the guy who posted 2400p wallpaper link!
edit: teh app also allows to set a different/separate pics for portrait and landscape.
Anyone else have an issue where the lockscreen wallpapers aren't crisp and sharp looking? Seems like android compresses the wallpapers and they never look as good as the original image. I've tested out the new moto x and the stock wallpapers look tack sharp on the screen. This isn't just the lockscreen that's giving me this problem, it's the home screen wallpapers as well.
I've tested 1440p and 4k wallpapers as well with the same result. No, im not using low res photos.
Any ideas?

You are not alone. I have noticed the same thing. I believe its something with TouchWiz. I cropped my wallpapers to 1440x2560 in photoshop and they seem a lot better. Its funny how they still look a tad sharper in Gallery.

I've tried this, and still no luck. Wallpapers on the Nexus 5 are tack sharp, same as the moto x 2014.
The images in the gallery look amazing, but when they are applied as a wallpaper they look compressed and
blurry, even when they are cropped to match the 1440p resolution. This isnt a huge deal, but just wish it didn't look like this.
This is True
I am going to buy Galaxy Alpha .
and when I looked at wallpapers on home screen and Lock screen on my friend's Alpha it really looked pixalated
I thought its because of 720p and 316 ppi .
but when I checked Gallary app and other apps pics and resolution was looking really superb .
I can see pixels only if I really look Deeply .
2k screen is wastage of battery , Frame rates and performance , specially on S805
I hope they solve this Wallpaper problem
I can confirm this, I've compared a 1440p pic on gallery and when I set it as a wallpaper, as a wallpaper it definitely doesn't look as sharp as when I opened it in gallery. hmmm I hope they fix it with a firmware update or something. Don't know if it has anything to do with this issue but did any of you guys try a different launcher to see if the problem is solved?
Pictures look better in Gallery if you're using Adaptive display mode, because what this mode does is increase sharpness and saturation when viewing images and videos.

I go back and forth between basic and adaptive display, same issue on either display mode.
On both my Moto X and Moto G, whenever I apply wallpaper through Zedge the wallpaper image looks sharp but when I downloaded the same image and apply from photo album the resulting wallpaper looks like their image quality has been reduced. The effects are really noticeable since it produces color banding.
I'm using both stock Moto and Google Now launcher, both have the same issue so I guess it's not Touchwiz related. If anyone can help in pointing to apps that will allow me to apply my photos in gallery without reducing quality I will be grateful.

Yeap... That's it. Thanks a lot!
An easy way to have the same effect on the homescreen wallpaper, is to open the image with studio and apply the Sharpen effect (100%). Then save as 8MP> and set that image as wallpaper. That image will have noise in the stock gallery, but when applied as wallpaper should look almost identical to how the original one looks in the stock gallery.
Cheers
I have no problems with wallpapers.
I edit them to an ideal size, which on the note 4 is 2880x2560 for AOSP-based launchers(scrolling wallpaper) or 2560x2560 for touchwiz/lockscreen.
I then set them through FX File Explorer which doesn't edit the image unless it's really needed.
