htc sense resolution problem

Hey guys! Ill try to make myself clear ! Im encountering the following issue:
whenever im trying to use an image as a wallpaper for htc sense it`s been displayed somehow blurry (i guess it doesnt have anything to do with the transparency settings) .
I`ve tried to use the same image for lock screen and sense screen. The result is that in lock screen it looks very sharp and in sense screen its blurry!
Any ideas ?

What dimensions do you use? I noticed the animated ones are 480 x 696...

i didnt care much about the resolution ... i just used to download wallpapers and use them! Eventually, i tried to crop the images to 800/480 but that didnt seem to be a solution!
Are you trying to say that its something similar to that "contact pics thumbnails problem" ?
On a second thought, im encountering the same problem even if i use the stock set of images ! Another thing is that if im using the default ANIMATED wallpapers things seem to be ok ! So the problem occurs only when im using the "weather wallpaper"

Well, if the picture is anything else than the required dimensions (the word "resolution" is actually inaccurate), the system will try to either shrink or magnify it, a process which can cause various artifacts, including the blurry effect you are describing.
I would try an image with the dimensions I quoted in my previous post to see if that looks all right.

thanks! im gonna try now and tell you the result

nothing new ! Still the same problem! Wallpapers in lock mode are displayed correctly, the ones in weather mode are blurry!

Strange... I may try it myself this evening if I have the time.

*update* ... aften another day of "testing" i guess its all because HTC sense. Ive installed SPB mobile shell and things are ok there, so, luckily its not a problem with the display!

It's because HTC Sense compresses the wallpaper into this random format and stores it somewhere...

umm ... and what should i do about it ?

[Q] Screen brightness variation

Hey guys. My first hours with the SGS2, and there's something annoying me that I couldn't find anywhere.
I'm getting screen brightness variation depending on the image. On darker images the brightness is higher than on brighter images.
I'm pretty sure this is not auto-brightness. I've tested with manual brightness and the effect is there too. It's almost like if there's not enough power for the screen, and when you have more bright pixels, the screen dims.
Has anyone experienced this?
This is specially annoying when scrolling different content, or even when you are on a predominantly white screen and the swype keyboard shows up, making the white area much brighter.
I'm currently on "Normal" on that stupid screen setting (I have image post-processing). Tried movie too, but still shows this behaviour.
Here are two photos using a Nikon D40 in Manual mode. Exposure has not been changed between both photos. I've put them side-by-side for comparision. Brightness was manually set on the SGS2.
Is there a solution to this? Hopefully it's not a hardware problem .
Hmm, can't post image links... Can someone please post them?

EDIT: FOUND THE ANSWER MYSELF
There's a configuration for Energy Automatic Adjustment (don't know if this is the right text as my phone is in Portuguese). Disable that damn thing .

Display issue on new x pure

I've looked all over this forum and elsewhere but i was not able to find any solution to this issue.
I recently bought this phone brand new and I'm having an issue that can be seen in the pictures.
Any text white on black background or darker background shows this shadow type of thing and if anyone has any solutions for this please help.
it is showing in the applications and even on the drop down notification panel, white icons show the smear across the screen.
If this is in a wrong place i apologize.

here are two better pictures where you can clearly see the shadows

You have hardware problems... to be sure, perform a factory default, but I am guessing it will still be there. Return the device for a replacement or send it in to Moto for repair, you cannot fix this with software.

Get it replaced from Motorola before it's too late.

Thank you good sirs your help is much appreciated. I bought it at Best Buy hopefully they will exchange it.

Video , Photos and media quality looks washed out.

I came from an S7 EDGE and I just got my OP5 and there's something I hate about my new phone. Every photos videos on YouTube, Reddit , internet in general looks washed out. The colors are good but when you pay attention, you can see the same artefacts you see on a highly compressed video/photo. In other words, the screen looks like it's not even a 8 bit color panel. Do you guys know a solution about this? I never saw this problem on any phone ( I'm a cellphone seller in Canada ), not even on my S7 EDGE, Alcatel IDOL 3, Nexus 5

Maybe it's because it's pentile or something

You might want to change the screen calibration method under settings / display and see if that helps at all.

Unfortunately the problem is still existent. Look at the uploaded screenshot with your phone The colors on the dialer supposed to be gradient but it's not. That my problem .

The dialer looks lighter at the top and darker at the bottom--are you saying there isn't enough transition between the two or that the colors in the screenshot are inaccurate? You might want to do a search for gradient android dialers (which should have screenshots) to verify the problem is with the phone rather than with the specific app you are using. All of the gradient screenshots I pulled up looked fine on my phone but the color changes were a lot more subtle than the one you provided. It's possible you have a bad display or that it's calibrated incorrectly for some reason. I've never noticed any problems with the colors on my OP5 and never read a complaint similar to yours.
You might want to make sure Night Mode or Reading Mode aren't on in settings because both would affect the colors.
Also make sure ambient display is off to verify that isn't doing anything screwy.
Have you rooted your phone or installed a custom kernel or anything like that? Do the colors look exactly the same when you boot into safe mode?

I see the banding in the dialer (the background where the dialpad is). Given that it's a screenshot though, that part is likely to be how OnePlus designed the dialer app (screen issues wouldn't show up in a screenshot).

Photos as wallpaper

This is a rudimentary question, and I'm not a noob by any stretch but I have never been able to use a photo that I've taken as wallpaper. The image overwhelms the dimensions of the screen and will not fit. I've never had any issues with any Android phone I've used except for the 6T. Is there a display setting I'm missing that is need for proper fit?
Thanks in advance.

Sometimes this can depend on the resolution of wallpaper. Also it can depend on how you set the wallpaper for example
You can set wallpaper with gallery app or launcher. Both can set it differently.
