I have this wallpaper of 1200x800 and on having tried to put what happens is that it leaves me to select great part of this one but on having selected and to agree only places me 1/4 departs from the wallpaper doing a great zoom. Thank you
i had the same problem
ive looked around and dude here is the answer... Picspeed HD wallpapers ... download it from play store
Here m8, try this app. Its called "Multipicture Live Wallpaper"... Its exactly what your looking for.
It will set your wallpapers with out zooming them.

Download Wallpaper Wizardii from the Market. It's free and let's you set your whole picture as your wallpaper.
Hope this helps.
I've run into the same thing. It's the way you set it. Try a program or another way.
If you are by chance setting it from a browser, make sure you're tapping the image to download it before tapping to set as. I have found a few times where I had the thumbnail open instead of the actual pic.
I always use third party launchers, and I really haven't had an issue with it... even though I do have to crop a bit.
for the life of me i cant figure out how to add wallpaper to my nook tablet. it either stretches it or cuts it off. I'm sure its something I'm just overlooking but it's driving me crazy. thanks for the help..
Are you using the correct sized wallpaper? I don't recall the actual size but it's listed in Themes and Apps thread.

If you mean you don't want your pictures cropped like the stock gallery makes you do, I recommend checking out an app called QuickPic from the Android Market. The app is free and it lets you have better control of how much of the wallpaper picture you want to show.
I was looking for correct wallpaper sizes and stumbled across this site. Nice selection. And free.

I've been using the PicSpeed wallpaper app to both download and apply HD wallpapers. They have a pretty good selection of papers and using the app to apply the wallpaper changes seems to result, to me at least, to be much better resolution and cropping.
Best part about the Note 2 is the awesome screen! However, one of my biggest issues is lack of high resolution content ! Seems like 95% of wallpapers, and clock widgets are low resolution and it drives me nuts. Any tips on where to get higher resolution widgets or wallpapers? Zedge is terrible, PicSpeed is O.K. but not great. Any others?
Have you tried HD Widgets from the Play Store? Or Beautiful Widgets?

For wallpapers, someone in the "screenshots of your note II" shared this:
www.ilikewallpaper.net/iPhone-5/Wallpapers/
Much easier than finding images that are at least 1280 in height and cropping, which I was doing before.
Beautiful Widgets is pretty terrible also. Like 95% of the skins are very low res.
I havent tried the wallpapers, but do those any work if you choose not to have your wallpaper scroll as you scroll homescreens? I thought the android wallpapers needed to be wider than they are tall for the best scrolling effect.

What do you mean scrolling wallpaper? Mine does not have that feature, I thought they got rid of the scrolling wallpapers. I really want that feature back I hate having the static wallpaper its boring. The wallpaper selector gives you a cropping outline which shows 3 rectangles, with the left and right sides as if it still does the wallpaper scrolling but it doesn't.

Yes I use multi picture live wallpaper so my wallpapers need to be 720 width and 1280 height. The ones in that site work great.

My bad - it looks like you are right (at least with regard to the Touchwiz launcher). I had to switch temporarily to TW launcher to check this.
I am running Nova Launcher - which does allow for scrolling wallpapers.
I came from the OG Droid, to the Galaxy Nexus, and then to the GN2. This is my first non "google experience" phone. Even my Nexus 7 tablet has scrolling wallpapers with the default launcher - but that tablet is running Paranoid Android. Not sure what the stock Jellybean launcher behavior is...
Hi all...
I bought one of those touchpads for $99 and finally got around to loading CM9. Very happy with it but having problems with wallpapers. TP resolution supposed to be 1024 x 768, but wallpapers that size are way too large. If I understand it properly, it may have to do with different dpi for WebOS vs Android. Any tips please?
Thanks in advance.
there's no option to apply wallpaper without cropping so I use picseed from the play store to apply wallpapers and it works well for me...hope that helps.

Thanks, will try.
Two options for setting wallpapers without having it zoom in are multipicture live wallpaper and I believe wallpaper wizdrini(I may have misspelled that, lol). I've used multipicture live wallpaper and it makes the wallpapers look much better that the default app does. Haven't tried wizdrini on the touchpad yet, but it gives fine control over exactly how the wallpaper will work on my other tablets, it should work for the touchpad. If you try it, please let me know how well it works.
Wallpaper wizardrii works pretty good and has more options for cropping or not.

hi, i've been using HP Touchpad Wallpaper Applier available on Google Play. The difference of image quality was huge. I'm not sure it is compatible with every Android versions but you should take a look !

EDIT : it was working perfectly when my touchpad was running CM9. i've not tried it yet with CM10.
I know there are a few DNA wallpaper threads, but I feel this warrants a new thread...
I'm a wallpaper fiend and wallpapers for our phones are INCREDIBLY hard to find, so I just wanted to add some tips I've found for finding proper wallpaper for our phones that may not be immediately apparent.
First of all, I know this is pretty obvious, but any 1920x1080 wallpaper can be rotated 90 degrees to work for our phones. Also, all the stock Xperia Z wallpapers will work.
Google searches for "larger than 4 MP" come up with a lot of results: https://www.google.com/search?hl=en...p.r_qf.&fp=5394ff313a8b7984&biw=2133&bih=1016
Picspeed wallpapers can be used for rotating wallpapers 90 degrees as well as using static wallpapers without having to crop them: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.srsdev.wallpapers&hl=en If you open the Gallery directly, you can got to Set As and choose Picspeed.
Wallpapers for the iPad 3 are Very close to our required resolution, and this is a great resource: http://2048px.com/
If you find a wallpaper you like with a solid black or white background, you can make a 2160x1920 file in Photoshop and fill the background layer with black or white, If you drag the wallpaper you downloaded directly into photoshop it will place it dead center and you can easily create a correct resolution file. You can also do this with any color 1080x1920 wallpaper as long as you don't allow the homescreen to rotate.
Wallbase has a few 2160x1920 wallpapers: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5jaXRjLndhbGxiYXNlIl0.
Any system dump from a 1080p tablet will work as long as you rotate the wallpaper 90 degrees using the Picspeed or Photoshop method.
Please post any more suggestions/ links you find! Wallpapers for are phones are scarce and I feel we need an official thread going.
EDIT: Here's a zip file of all the ones I've tracked down. http://d-h.st/iLZ
Here are a few Star Trek PNG pics you guys may find wallpaper worthy...
