Anyone know a good source for ready-made qHD wallpapers for the Atrix?
good question, for now i have been playing with the droid x2 wallpapers since it has a qhd screen.
Honestly, I'm not really even sure what qHD means, but the market app HD wallpapers library works perfectly on my Atrix. They all look very clear and are nice and big, etc.
qHD is one quarter HD or 540 x 960, most wall paper is 1080 x 960 so you can scroll left and right, pretty much anything close to a 1.125/1 ratio will work but of course the lower rez ones will not look as good blown up to 1080/960
It will force you to choose(at least I have not found a way around it) a 1.125/1 chunk out of a picture so if you upload something with a more widescreen ratio you will loose some of it.
The rest is mostly ascetics, do you put the object of focus over all the screens, limit it to the center 1/3, have something hiding to the far right or left, a lot of stuff to play around with.
p.s. here are some links most work well for the atrix

Thanks for the links.
Is there a way to copy all the wallpapers from the dropbox link that you posted to my dropbox account? I want all of them and saving each file at a time is driving me crazy.

I am not aware of a way to get them all in one batch, I just came across those links, never used dropbox much so not sure if there is a work around or not to batch download

Hi,
I have a couple of free wallpapers on the Android Market (please find links in my signature below) and am very curious if and how they behave on the magnificent EVO 3D?
Please could you check them out and let me know if they work, do they give any sense of depth and whether you liked them or not? It'd be really appreciated.
Many thanks,
Paul

They ran and there was a sense of depth in a way. The zombie pop one lagged quite a bit on me but it was quite fun. I really like this

Thanks a lot for checking them out. You're a star (have 'thanked'). I was thinking of pushing all of projects into openGL anyway - which should help with the higher number of sprites.
Very happy that you liked Zombie Pop! I've just released the full version freely onto the market as a thanks to the community (with a donation version if you feel generous).
Does anybody else get lag?
Paul
HAHAHAHA : Zombie Pop is awesome. OCD wallpaper for the "Munsters" set.
Nice choice on the "poppy paper" sounds, and the "MOAR Brainzzz" is a very nice touch. Works well on the 3d, and a little better on the Epictouch4g.
+10.
Edit: my best score was 340, but I accidentally pulled up an invisible widget for my contacts right before they "got me", so I'm using my mulligan.
I like the zombie pop, it's cool that you can touch them, that was a nice animation.but add they get closer it shows lower quality and they just disappear when they're bodies are off screen so it looks like they're head just goes away.so I would like to see higher quality images and have them run off screen. good wallpaper.

Hey mazook98,
Glad you liked it and thanks for the fab feedback! There are about a dozen 'phrases' - I was hoping they'd amuse.
'OCD wallpaper for the "Munsters" set.' nails it completely - thanks for that
Not a shabby score at all - well done on that.

Thanks also to codest17. The app is designed to work on all sorts of screen sizes - I'd made the perspective changeable to fit best with each device - you could try playing around with the settings to get a better effect?
The donation app has higher-res graphics, more zombie types, speeds and lets you put your own heads on zombies.
How did you mean 'have them run off screen'? As in instead of exploding?
Cheers,
Paul
It's been a long day, so I'm hoping you guys can cut me some slack for not searching myself.
Does anyone know offhand what size wallpaper we should looking for?
Thanks in advance
Haha it must've been a rlly long day lol.
Just assuming so if I'm wrong ill feel stupid its a 720p display so 1280x720 I believe is the proper size

That's the screen size. The wall paper size is going to be a little bit wider because of how the background moves when you switch home screens.

That's what I was looking for - way to redeem yourself! Thanks!
I was just thinking about this while finishing off my bottle of Buffalo Trace (Yay, bourbon!). If I'm remembering things correctly from back in the day, the formula for android wallpaper sizes is height by 2*width, so technically the correct size would be 1280x1440. Does that sound right? it matches the size, but I'm not thinking too clearly right now...
Not very many 1440 x1280 wallpapers out there. Majority are just nature.
Hopefully we will get more soon.

Hi all,
This is my first post, but I have lurked a bit before.
Anyway, I just got a Photon 4G this week and I tested the HDMI output and it doesn't look very good if I were to look at it for a long time.
I think that the reason that it looks bad is that it is interpolating the 960x540 out to a 1280x720 or a 3:4 ratio. Next the monitor is taking the 1280x720 signal and turning it into a 1920x1080 signal or a 2:3 ratio. I think that if it put out the same signal (960x540) that is on the screen that it would look a lot better because it would have a clean 1:2 ratio signal increase and no artifacts from two consecutive interpolations. However, can a standard HD monitor take a 960x540 signal.
I installed Launcher Pro and it showed me the menu called "HDMI Format" which gives the options: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected] I really want it to output [email protected] perhaps there is a menu deeper down that allows this, or a simple way to modify some file to get it to work. Of course it may be that this is not at all possible. and the output settings are only those four.
My main purpose is to be able to occasionally use the phone as a desktop replacement. So the better the image the more I will use it. Is this program called webtop something that makes the phone almost into a laptop? would it assist the resolution issue?
thanks

Webtop uses 1080. Always looks nice and clear.

I was at the sprint store today and luckily they still had an HD dock and I tested the Webtop. The highest resolution available was 1280x720.
Do you get 1080p on a Photon?

thanks, I have gotten inside of xorg.conf, but I want to tread lightly. I am very much a newbie.
I copied xorg.conf and have it on the desktop to play with.
At least I have nebtop running.
I didn't pay enough attention to the link, that solution if for the Atrix, which is similar to the photon.
I tried it and it made it slightly different, but not much.
Anyone want to have a crack at figuring how to do this on a Photon, not an Atrix?
from an HTC One thread... 1920x1080

Dont thank me, thank OP in THIS THREAD
Thanks, I do have one question, haven't looked yet but thought I would just ask. How do you use the whole picture instead of the phone trying to crop it? I included a pic for reference. It just seems like it cuts the quality of the picture.
The only resolution size that will use the entire picture without the phone cropping parts of it is 2160x1920.

you could also flip to vertical
I've been mix-matching finds on wallbase
it's not specifically a phone site...
but the selection is hard to beat and it highlights the resolutions before full viewing!
And thanks for listing the 2160x1920 trick!
That's handy to know~
Hi guys, i don't know if i'm putting this into the right section, if not my apologies. I really love DBZ in all it's series (less Super) and i'm trying to learn how to make good wallpapers (i mean creating a wall, set transparency, cut/paste object or part of them, render and also draw characters and all the thing someone needs to know) so i tought "Why not to make some DBZ wallpapers?" And here we are, with some unique wallpapers you wont find anywhere else. For now they're just a few, more will come for sure when i have some free time. All the wallpapers are in high quality and will fit for sure in your device because they're in the 1080 x 1920 resolution, same as display. I test them on my device to ensure they're good looking.
P.s They're mostly on white background, because i think that makes characters look better, emphasise them. Also it's more "clean". BTW i'll make some of them in "Alt" versions with black background
Downloads are in the attachments...i had to remove imgur links because i couldn't upload photos in HQ, also the service was not so good. Sorry
