Awesome app. For the moment i use it, thanks. But the problem remains unsolved because the wallpaper doesn't move. I wonder, what's the resolution of the stock wallpapers that perfectly fits the screen?

The full scale H x V dimensions for Sony Tablet S and Xperia Tablet S ICS wallpaper images is 1920 x 1280 pixels, but the images must be cropped if they are to be displayed correctly.
Sony explains how to select and crop a wallpaper image in ICS HERE. To the best of my knowledge, Sony has not yet released a video showing how to crop an image in ICS, however, they do show how to crop an image in HC in this VIDEO located at YouTube's web site. Cropping a wallpaper image in ICS is done pretty much the same way as it was in HC.
I provided a wallpaper image template and explained the pixel dimensions and viewable areas of wallpaper images HERE. I hope you find the template and information useful.
I make my own wallpaper images using an image editing program on my PC then copy them to my tablet into a folder I created and named /sdcard/Pictures/Wallpapers. Any images stored in the tablet's /sdcard/Pictures folder and its subfolders can be previewed and chosen via the "Gallery" selection on the "Choose wallpaper from" pop-up that appears whenever you long-press on any blank area near the center of the tablet's screen. You can also get to the "Gallery" selection via Settings > Display > Wallpaper.
Of course, you could always download and install wallpaper apps, but most of them are advertisement based and they never provided the control you can have by making your own wallpaper images and cropping them yourself.
I hope you find my reply helpful.

where do we place wallpapers in sd card?
I copied these wallpapers on sdcard\wallpapers and cannot see them in the wallpaper gallery - which folder/location are these supposed to be in? Also if I use explorer to select and set as - it only sets the wallpaper on the 3rd screen and evertime I repeat - only that screen changes - what am I missing here.
Is there any home screen widget which will allow me to switch wallpapers based on images placed in a folder?
am using stock dell rom - not yet upgraded.
Bear with me pls - new to andriod - if this question is silly !

I'd been trying to set my pictures as wallpaper but every time I try it, it come up with the square crop suggesting me to adjust where do I need to set as wallpaper. So this end up with only portion of the picture being display as wallpaper.
I'd download some wallpaper specially for x10 mini pro screen size of 240 by 320.
But none of them can set as full screen wallpaper.
1) Any default way to do this that I'm not aware of??
2) If there aren't any, then how about alternative way of doing it to display full screen wallpaper.
Same happens to me, someone can help us ?

Could you direct me to this "wallpaper set"... Is it also an APK which you need to install to run the wallpaper??
FYI: I'd download some wallpapers based on this x10 mini/pro screen resolution 240x320 but I could never be able to set anyone of them as wallpaper in full screen(apart from the top notification section). The phone will ask to crop the picture before it can be display as wallpaper, Thus, this will only showing half of the entire picture.
Wallpaper Set and Save app could be the answer. If you can't find it in the market, just download it thru google.
Will give it a try now.. thanks..
Try This..!!
Hey Bro,
I have a solution..
Download an image of any size ...
And then using paint re-size it to 320*240 and not 240*320..
It works ... Try it...!!!
Try Wallpaper Wizardrii
very easy, install "wallpaper wizardrii" free from googleplay

I'd have to agree with this. It's a very useful app as it has much better cropping options and can resize pictures to fit the screen.
Hi all,
Fresh new dell streak, flashed streakdroid 1.9.
Now when I try to set any picture as wallpaper, it seems like it is zoomed in, destroying any high-res detail. Did I do something wrong? How should I go about fixing this? It is SUPER annoying.
Questions...
1. What are the dimensions of the wallpaper?
2. When you set the image as wallpaper, there should be an orange box on the screen. Using the multi-touch capabilities of the screen, did you expand the size of the orange box to contain the entire picture?
it happens using any wallpaper, both default and downloaded. The downloaded one im using is 1600ish x 1000ish. Yea, I use the box to get the entire image for my wallpaper, but still no luck. It still seems to show a zoomed image no matter what.
The resolution should be 960 x 800. At the resolution you're using, the picture will look horrible because the phone has to downsize the image to fit the screen. This leads to jaggies and moire effects on the screen.
Get a photo editor and downsize your image to 960 x 800, then load it as wallpaper.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT: As an example, I use a cropped version of the following image:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The version displayed here is a low quality version. The original image is 14MB in size with a resolution of 2486 x 1914. While I could have downsized the image as is to something pretty respectible on the Streak, I discovered that on a 5" screen the sun would be rather small. That didn't appeal to me, so in order to see the sun, I cropped the image in Photoshop CS5 so it was smaller with the details I wanted, namely the sun, the blue glow, and the foreground.
From there I used Photoshop's Image Size and Canvas Size functions to get the final image, seen below as an attachment.
Now, you were complaining about a loss of resolution earlier. Unfortunately, the Streak doesn't have the same color resolution as my netbook does, and the two of them cost the same amount of money. Load my wallpaper into your phone and you will see distinct banding within the blue glow. This is because the phone doesn't have 32-bit color depth like a standard computer monitor. There's nothing that can be done with that to the best of my knowledge. But by resizing the image so the Streak doesn't have to downsample the image itself, you can make the image look a lot more presentable.
Ahh, that was it. The default wallpapers are all sized wrong. Thanks!!
If you want to properly thank me, hit the "Thanks" button.
But, you're welcome.
download flikie from android market. Move the wallpaper you want to set to flikie folder on your sd card. open flikie and click on the wallpaper and set it as a background without stretching it
As the title says, this is default XPERIA Z wallpaper (you probably know that it leaked few days ago).
Beside original file, there is complete set of resized versions, to fit different XPERIA 2010/2011/2012 screen sizes, as well as different desktop displays and aspect ratios.
I tried to maintain the quality at highest level, with saving resized versions in PNG format (have in mind that original file is in jpg, so there would be additional loss of quality if saved again in jpg after resizing).
Resolutions included:
Phones / 480x320 / 640x480 / 960x854 / 1080x960 / 1440x1280 /
Desktop / 1440x900 / 1600x1200 / 1680x1050 / 1920x1080 / 1920x1200 / 2560x1440 / 2560x1600
Enjoy.

can you increase the contrast of this wallpaper a little bit? I find the default one to be quite pale in color.

I just tested it, and it's working fine.
Maybe it was some temporary BOX server error.

This is the farthest I could go with contrast.

As, with any greater contrast, there are ugly bendings (visible color transitions) appearing on highlighted bottom part. Also, you didn't mention what wallpaper size you're interested in exactly, so I just changed contrast on source wallpaper.

Cool, Thanks
Thanks...

not saying, its not so hard to understand
This is my first HTC phone, and I don't plan on rooting any time soon. Running Nova Launcher Prime. I keep running into all these tiny but frustrating issues, one of which is that I can't make custom wallpapers because no app I use will accept a full 1080x1920.
I disabled the notifications bar, so any 1080x1920 wallpaper I choose should, hypothetically, fit to a tee. The problem is, I can't for the life of me set it exactly. I know a bunch of people use Quickpic, but this is what happens when I try it:

^can't expand the area, no matter what I do--all it does is contract to form a skinnier, longer rectangle. but the actual area of the crop never increases.
I tried the apps Image 2 Wallpaper and Wallpaper Wizardrii, but did not have success with either app. I edited every possible setting, I tried to manually fix the dimensions, I excluded/included the status bar, etc. Nothing worked.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there something bizarre I need to change with the settings in order to allow exact fit with wallpapers? I tried everything both with scroll on and off in Nova (not that it does anything, wallpapers can't scroll on my DNA).
Would like to know as well. Using nova as well although I used the "crop" feature and it got most of the picture in.

As far as I know, there isn't a way to do what you are asking about without the use of an app. Might try Wallpaper Wizardrii. Or get a pic with height resolution of 1920 and larger width, so cropping doesn't affect final clarity.

yeah try the "Image 2 wallpaper" app... sounds cheap and lame but it's perfect for setting wallpapers like you are looking for.
LOL I actually stated that I used Wizardrii and Image 2 Wallpaper . Unfortunately neither worked. Absolutely nothing I've tried has worked, even customizing the height/width in both apps.
Another random thing I noticed--I can't get any of my wallpapers to scroll--is that just HTC not playing nice with apps/launchers?
LoL you totally did. My bad for not fully reading. Smh.

Use "Simple Image Wallpaper" app. Its what I use. Just be sure to look under live wallpapers as its not a static image technically. Thats why it works without having to crop.
Thanks so much! That's exactly what I was looking for . Funny thing is, I got Quickpic to work once, but it never worked after that.
