Hey XDA,
I am wondering if anyone had some wallpaper that kind of matched the background image when you first load up the AT&T My Account app. Doesn't have to be Note sized wallpaper, I can crop it.
Try taking a screen shot when you open the app, go your computer and crop it the way you like and make it your wallpaper.
-On another NOTE, Samsung goes 5.3"

Vibrant display is impressive EXCEPT when I zoom in on photos (taken with a Canon G10) uploaded to phone, and viewed in the stock gallery. There seems to be some degradation in the photo quality when I zoom in or try to use as wallpaper. I notice this on 5mp+ photos. Detail gets very fuzzy on Vibrant screen. Can anyone explain this to me?
It has something to do with the compression they used.. There's a thread about this in the galaxy s forums, look it up.... for wallpaper I use flikie from the market.. I don't use it to download wallpapers, just to set the ones I want from the gallery.. works great...
It's the Gallery Application that was made by Cooliris. You can search the Nexus One forums, they have plenty info on this.

Wallpaper Unblurry "Trick"

I was a little confused when trying to use a nice photograph as a wallpaper as well until I realized that when I go to set wallpaper, the box you use to select the region of the image to use for the wallpaper is actually resizable. Just drag the corner of that box to make it larger, and the image won't be blurry.
I don't think that this is a problem with the screen or any of the phone hardware, but rather Samsung's software scaling of images.

I am aware that you can adjust the crop for wallpapers... so I guess my issue is more with zooming in on a photo to see more detail and it becoming very blurry.
Thanks for the insight and additional research ideas. I will try flikie as well

Update:
Oddly, when I use flikie to set wallpaper it gives message that the wallpaper is set, but its the default twiz "grass blades", not my photo. Annoying. Also no option to choose crop size.
Hope there's better gallery included in updates.
So, this is totally a noob question, but I can't seem to get this. I have an image I want to use as a wallpaper but I want it to be static on each page, and not spread across each page. When I choose the image to set as wallpaper, it makes me crop it, but it wont let me crop it to the size of the screen. It makes it a box, instead of a rectangle. However, if I just go to use the crop tool, it does it fine.
Help!
Hi!
I'm "trying "to install wallpaper or wallpapers in the Galaxy Tab 10.1vy believe me you do not see any good.
Let me explain: Download the funds that interest you (preferably a native resolution of 1280x800), you go to "Background" / Gallery, select the directory you want and asks you to resize the same fund, which in my NOT I never look good (always cut too).
Do you know it is because of this?
Do you know where are located the original wallpapers on our Tab 10.1v?
(let your wallet).
Thnx!
The problem lies with the fact that the app drawer also has a background that moves. Whenever you press the appdrawer you fly "up" over the wallpaper. So the wallpapers aren't 1280x800 they er more towards 4:3 aspect ratio. There for I advice you to get 1600x1200 wallpapers and cut it with the fact in mind that the wallpaper is somewhere near the bottom of the crop tool
I don't know if wallpaper scrolling can be disabled. You might have a fix for that. Good luck!

Wallpaper sizing issues...
Hello, I just purchased a LG G2. Loving the phone, but there is one thing that is really bugging me. Perhaps someone here can help.
Why am I forced to crop an image that, when I view the image in the gallery, fits my phone screen just fine. I have this image that I downloaded onto my phone for my background. When I go to gallery and view it, it fits my screen beautifully. However, when I go to set that as my wallpaper, it makes me crop a small portion of the image. When I do this, the image now looks stretched and blurry. My question is, why can't I just fit the image to screen, like I can with every other phone I've used? It just doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me that I have to crop an image rather than just fit it to screen.
Thanks!
Wallpapers on 1080p devices need a resolution of 2160x1920 if you don't want to do any cropping. Otherwise there are some apps out there that let you utilize the full image. Try out Image 2 Wallpaper from the play store.
The wallpaper scrolls, so in order to not scroll to a blank background it must be made bigger.

use an app like wallpaperii wizard? sometimes if you set your wallpaper thru the setings/home screen/lockscreen sometimes it doesn't affect it so much =. I had the same problem on the nexus 4 and it seems to be a common problem with these phones I've no doubt the n5 does it as well but it would be good to be able to set the pic you see without it being distorted,anyhow I know use the above as it gives you lots of possibilities you can stretch the pics in portrait/landscape and nine times out of ten the picture that you set actually looks good .
Hey guys,
Was wondering if any of you know how i can get a full screen wallpaper for my Z2, since i tried the app Wizard (weird name after) and now im using Wallpaper setter.
Wizard did not work and wallpaper setter, at it's best cuts the notification bar and half the buttons of the dock.
Tried googling 1080x1776 wallpapers instead of 1080x1920 too, to no better result.
Wanted to change, since the stock wallpapers make for a crappy homescreen, since it is already a washedout screen (i come from a note 3, so probably it's just my opinion).
P.S. Was wondering if you can use any method to not crop the images on lockscreen too
Thank you
I use this to crop them perfectly. Even gallery images, just use this to set wallpaper.
