portrait size is 320x480, landscape is 480x320. If you want backgrounds to be in portrait mode the use Go Launcher EX, search options and set wallpaper in portrait mode. That's it...

dint really work with me, it rescale itself...
I use picsin and that gets me the closest. However remember that it may not be perfect due to the wallpaper size scrolling to each side.

''setting wallpaper'' issue solved alternatively

Hi guys,
I guess everyone is having problem, setting their favourite wallpapers on honeycomb. Because whenever we try to set wallpaper, it asks for cropping and after applying cropped wallpaper becomes blurred [like it zommed in the wallpaper]......
some people said to use wallpaper wizardrii app but honestly it didnt help me at all....it still crops the picture and sometimes make it blurred.
so my solution to set desired wallpaper without cropping is very very simple but as i said this is just an alternative not the perfect solution.
just download live wallpaper called ''WATERIZE LIVE WALLPAPER '' , install it and then open it. By default it will have stones background. Go to settings and choose custom background of yourchoice. Apply it. Thats it. Now you have wallpaper of your choice without cropping. Its so easy and plus it adds the effect of water ripples on your wallpaper which looks so cool. Try out.
this is my alternative way to set background without cropping but little sacrifice is its live wallpaper but i would really love to use this until google solve this issue on honeycomb.
i have provided the link for download.
if anyone likes this then please comment
And i see, you must use the full version to get the option custom image.
Use Wallpaper Wizardii from the market
'Wallpaper for Tablets' in the market solves the problem as well.
Also, 'MultiPicture Live Wallpaper'
Both are free, and allow you to perfect you wallpaper on the tab.
+1 for multi live wallpaper
+1 Wallpaper for Tablet. Works great. No more crop

How do you use this program? When I install it, I can't open it. I've tried to reboot also.

home screen >>>>>wallpapers>>>> live wallpapers >>>>>wallpapers for tablets
it works great thanks for sharing
What is the exact wallpaper size if using wallpaper for tablet? 1280 x 800 ?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
The problem is that using these programs you apply a live wallpaper like a static wallepaper ...... and that this decreases the speed of toucwiz.
I think 1920x1408 resolution is best for our honeycomb tablets. But this multi live wallpaper software make the images fit to screen so u dont need to worry. Otherwise for perfect size try the above resolution....i will upload some wallpaper collection when i m free.

thanks to refer me this amazing software. I installed it long ago but at that time i was new to honeycomb so didnt notice the setting menu of multi live wallpaper but now i installed again and looked into the setttings and when i applied. ...i found that this software is ****in awesome. I love the way it has difffernt wallpaers on each screen and specially the screen transition effect is glorious.
One question though, being a live wallpaper and changing wallpaper on time intervals itself, do u think it will consume more ram and subsequently battery?
I wish it just use battery like a static wallpaper.
Another app that I used previously (although it was on my phone and not on my tablet) was "Wallpaper Set and Save".
Wallpaperwizadrrii and multipicture all compress the picture and degrade the quality.
I have yet to see a solution that maintains quality AND doesnt crop.

That's incorrect.
As I said in another thread, when using a stock Honeycomb ROM and/or ADW the standard rules of Android wallpaper sizing apply.
You take the screen resolution in portrait and double the width and that's the size the wallpaper should be to fit perfectly. Obviously you can scale up or down from there if you really want to but the ratio will stay the same.
There is a question-mark as to whether TouchWiz changes the way wallpapers are selected/size but since I really don't like TouchWiz, I haven't investigated.
Free!! Multi-live wallpaper..try it!!!
The BEST solution and a little more OPTIONS is MULTI-LIVE WALLPAPER..It looks Semi-Challenging to use but it really isn't..It allows you to set each screen with a specific wallpaper or you can have it cycle to different ones throughout your wallpaper folder..I have it set so that it cycles thru as I change Home screens..Don't let the Name fool you..It is IMO the BEST ONE OUT..Try it and see for yourself..You can also set it to FILL your SCREEN!!!Also the screen TRANSITIONS are AWESOME..And its 100% FREE!!!!

The firmware allows you to change the lockscreen wallpaper, Settings > Screen > Screen display.
You just need to size it up in the manner I laid out in the thread I linked-to.

[Q] How to change lockscreen wallpaper?

On most android phones when you pick the wallpaper it also shows it on the lockscreen. That doesnt appear to be the case here, so how do you change it? I'm on overcome v1.2.1.

On stock rom you can do following,
...settings/screen/screen display/then options ..home screen wallpaper and lockscreen wallpaper, if you select lockscreen ,further options ..wallpaper gallery or gallery,
is it the same on your rom ?
(another option,
to set lockscreen, from picture gallery application , straight )
good luck

To clear this post up a little (because I could barely make it out...no offence to willcor though)
You can do one of two things...
1. Go to Settings
> Screen
> Screen Display
> Select the word "Wallpaper" under the screen you would like to change
> Select where you would like to choose the picture from (most custom ROMs don't support the "Wallpaper Gallery" Option)
> Choose your picture
2. Go to your Gallery Application
> Select the folder in which the picture that you want is located
> Select your picture (A Motion sensor setting popup may come up if this is your first time. Doesn't matter what you choose for it)
> Hit the options soft button in the top right corner of the tablet (if you have no menu buttons up, press anywhere on the picture once and they will come up)
> Select "Set Picture As"
> Select either LockScreen or Wallpaper
Neither works on task's roms.

Okay. Then tell me how you have done it since I have used both of these methods and the new lockscreen from 14 does not change.

[Q] wallpaper in nova launcher

Hi,
Does anyone know how to get a wallpaper say from your gallery to stretch across all screens in your homescreen? I can only get that if use the default wallpapers.
Download Wallpaper Setter from the market. Then long press on your home screen and choose Wallpaper (No Crop).

Thanks for the app. So I downloaded the app, long press and chose wallpaper no crop..picked my pictures in my gallery..it shows success at the bottom...BUT the wallpaper is of the default..it seems the only way I can get my personal picture to appear and fit is if I go to gallery...pick the pic...then take a screenshot of it...then go back to wallpaper no crop and choose it..then it will work...
Is this how it's normally done?

??? You need 1440 X 1280 Wallpaper images. All you have to do is click on the picture you want as wallpaper and it sets it for you. Nothing more, nothing less.
What photos are you trying to use for wallpapers exactly??

ok, i see now.. it was just pics I took with the cam (macro shots)..but if I download any wallpaper off the net, it works no prob..so I guess it was just that the size of the camera pic was too small or something..
Or just get the gallery.Apk from cm9 ( or ics galley from the play store) its what I use and it works just fine
Hope I helped

[Q] Background image cuts in half, how to fix?

I just made a new background image for my phone, however when I try to apply it, the top of the image is being chopped off, and thus I can not see the top of the background I made when I am looking at my homescreen.
It looks as if you have tried to make an image that is "twice as high" as the phones resolution, and this means I only see roughly the lower half of the background image i just made.
Question is, how do i fix it so it looks right?

Well I just downloaded it. And it won't let me select the image I want to use however. It only shows 10 or so images overall and I have close to 1000 or more overall on the phone.
I would however prefer a tip/solution that evolved around using the native apps however.
Edit the picture and add a black border to the sides. The picture should be 960x800 or something in this ratio. But then you have to disable wallpaperscrolling in your launcher.

Why not just add borders to the top and bottom of the image instead?. It would make sense considering the image is supposed to be scrolling vertically
Dont know which launcher you are using then
The wallpaper is scrolling horizontally (for most people ) and is therefore twice your Phones width (in pixels) and the original height
960x800

Sorry I always tend to confuse those two . And I am using Go Launcher Ex. So 960*800 or at least that aspect ratio.
Yes! 960 width and 800 height
