Whenever I apply a wallpaper, the quality is really bad as if the phone compresses the wallpaper and then applies it. It never applies the whole wallpaper, rather it zooms in on a section. I even tried downloading flikie wallpapers HD and applying it from there but again, the end product is a zoomed, blurry version of the picture. Is there any way to fix this?
you need to use the wallpaper of correct resolution like 1280 x 720 or 1280 x 1440.
btw use Q & A section to ask questions

you can try this app, it will at least let you choose a widescreen image without it being cropped...

NOPE!
If you use stock touchwizz: 720*1280
If you use modified scroll-touchwizz (with another gallery app): 1440*1280
Ive been trying to find out what resolution the android wallpapers are for the nexus 10.
I rooted mine today and found out where the wallpapers are located and the resolution is 3966 x 2560
Just thought id post for anyone looking for wallpapers or making there own
Strange resolution. Seems like we might be able to get even more detail out of the wallpaper with a greater resolution? I'd recommend taking a look at websites with wallpapers designed for multiple monitors to get something that large.

Resolution seems fine.
Remember, that when you set up the wallpaper, you only use the part of the image - you use the full height of it - 2560 - for portrait, and then for landscape, you use 2560 + something for scrolling. And remember, that this 2560+something isnt the full width of an image, so 4k x 2.6k seems about right.
(and i dont like that they dont allow to use full image for landscape and forces to use middle part of it....
and where i can find wallpapers with 3966 x 2560 resolution^^

Wallpaper wizardrii has a new update coming with 2560 resolution working. No cropping whatsoever on full resolution photos. Looks amazing. He'll update soon after I finish testing beta.
You wont really find any wallpapers with that resolution, go for larger resolutions that are more common like 5120 by 3200
here are some that should look good on the screen: http://wallpaperswide.com/5120x3200-wallpapers-r.html
thx for the answers. another question, does the stock android dont support different wallpaper on home and lockscreen? thx
I've found 2400x1600 fit perfectly, I'm writing an app to set wallpapers on N10, from what I've seen so far, it's setting them perfectly.

Where are they located?
The wallpaper are located in /system/apps then go to the launcher app and extracted it to wherever you want, then go to location where you extracted it /res/drawable-sw720dp-nodpi and the wallpapers should be there.
can you please pump the stock wallpaper out? i really like them but i flashed into PA rom..
+1 please post stock collection here . i missed them after paranoid firmware:'(

My wallpapers that I'm using are 3860 x 2140 (QFHD) but I am using Nova Launcher with Scrolling disabled ^^
Request filled. I pulled these directly out of the factory image..
Enjoy.

>Change Screen Resolution<
Introduction:
I'm going to write this guide to teach you how to change the Screen Resolution of your Xiaomi Mi3/Mi4 AOSP/CM Based ROM to improve the graphics performance of your Mi3 without stressing your CPU/GPU while playing games.
What you need to Download:
Resolution Changer by NoMone:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...apk&pcampaignid=APPU_1_TXl1VcrLFoWB8QXozIGIBA
Root Browser:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ser&pcampaignid=APPU_1_oXl1VczIG4_s8AX7-YLQCQ
Note: Default Screen Resolution of Xiaomi Mi 3 is 1080x1920FHD @480 DPI, well what we are going to do is Change it into 720x1280HD @320 to improve performance. (Don't worry about getting the icons bigger, the reason why we have to reduce the DPI on the Build.prop is to avoid glitches and make the Icons and UI at the normal size when changing the resolution, because using the Resolution Changer alone will cause some glitches on other apps )
Steps:
1. Open Root Browser; and find /system/build.prop and open it using RB Text Editor.
2. Find ro.sf.lcd_density=480 and change it to 320.
3. Click Save.
4. Open Resolution Changer; Enter 720 Width, 1280 Height, 320 DPI
5. Click Apply and wait for it to change.
6. Click Yes to Confirm and Skip on the next dialog.
7. Now exit the app and Reboot.
After rebooting, you'll see that you've changed the Screen Resolution to FHD>HD. :good:
Congratulation, to prove it do an Antutu Benchmark test and you'll see the difference. :good:
Additional Info:
(OPTIONAL IF YOU'RE USING CUSTOM DPI ON FULL HD)
If you were using a custom DPI on FULL HD for example;
You're using 400 or 380 or 370 on 1080x1920FHD Resolution,
Do these to properly change resolution to avoid getting the UI or Icons Bigger than Normal.
Example;
If you are using 400DPI on 1080x1920FHD.
400÷3=133DPI
400-133=267DPI
so the right DPI that you're going to use would be; 267DPI on 720x1280HD PLEASE, DONT FORGET to CLICK THANKS!
Everything is working almost perfectly. Some icons are larger than they used to be. But that wasn't problem. Real problem is that SwiftKey keyboard didn't scale. So I had to revert back to Google original keyboard to reset resolution back to 1080p

Oh I forgot to write something about Swift Keyboard, Sorry since I used Google Keyboard. but aside from Swiftkey everything is fine :good:
I have done this years ago. Not only CM/AOSP but all rooted phones.
Thanks for putting some guide though. :good::fingers-crossed:

I wrote this guide for those who are confused and experiencing glitches when using the Resolution Changer alone and of course for the beginners
added additional info.
I just noticed. I used 294 DPI for 720x1280

Alright! ?
Initially tried this with MIUI v5, turned out to be very bad. The icons became very large and going to back to native resolution didn't help either. Fortunately I had nandroid backup.
Later I tried it on MIUI 6, it worked!
Some glitches are there:
- On recent apps screen
- camera effects selection screen
- Calender and clock icons turned invisible
- Minor glitches in clock app
Otherwise everything looks good, and performance bump is noticeable. Excited to find out how much it improves battery life.
Thanks for sharing.

No problem
that's why it's for CM/AOSP Based ROM but I'm glad that it worked for you though there are some glitches.
Hi im using a a33 tab with screen dpi 160 and 480x800 resolution. Can I change this to higher resolution and dpi?

You can but, I won't recommend it because it would just stress out the processor and gpu of that low-end tablet, just leave that be.
Better use gl tools
While everyone gets larger icons,i am getting small icons,small screen,and all the app including resolution changer itself says the current settings is 1080x1920 with 320dpi.
Where am i doing it wrong?
I am on cm12 latest nightly.
same problem as Jongla here, running the same CM 12 nightlies. I guess the problem is that resolution changer doesnt change anything after you apply, current settings are kept as FHD res. Maybe try a different app to do it.

Try this method.Its easier and works just fine.

thanks buddy, this one works like a charm
cool trick..
It's become blurry, not clear like before
Guys, if you're using a CM rom, just install Xposed and install the App Setting module. Then, you just choose the app, turn on the custom settings, choose the resolution and dpi you want, and the app will run with those defenitions without having to mess with the entire UI on the device...
@duraaraa any info or direction that you can provide on this?
I upped the resolution from stock 1080x2160 to 2160x4320 and left dpi at stock so I can have more screen real estate and still have a comfortable viewing experience. The issue I'm facing now is, I cannot capture a screenshot I get an error.
System UI
Couldn't Capture Screenshot
Screenshots are not allowed by this app or your organization.
steps to reproduce:
up your resolution to 2160x4320 and take a screenshot
Any guidance would be appreciated.

Sorry, don't know. Probably issue related to rooting and the settings you changed.
Thanks for the quick reply but I'm not rooted.

Mate 10 pro panel is only 1080p to begin with,
In what way did you upped the resolution ?? The setting wont give you that resolution option.

no need for root or settings to change DPI or Resolution
adb shell wm size 2160x4320
adb shell wm overscan reset

uh... well... you already understand that this method is "only faking" the number for the app to think that it run on that size of screen right ? Hardware & stock OS wise, the limitation is still on 1080p
I dont think the system UI app of EMUI 8 itself was made to handle that number
Normal 4K itself is only 3840 x 2160, and i dont think i ever found any phone running 4K+ (18:9)
This is just like asking why sometimes the play store act weird when we change our DPI
So answer is that : because it simply didn't support it
I've done #wm size 720x1280 & wm density 320 to 720p screen for long battery life. and I found the system's screenshot can not take whole screen(720p one).
It looks like the screenshot component take a 480p screen and the same 720p adjusting on AEX 5.x is fine.
so I thought maybe the screenshot on pie still mistake 720p screen for 1080p screen and take a 480p picture（expect: 1080p x 720/1080 = 720p, but now: 1080p x 720/1080 x 720x1080 = 480p）
But I notice that keep wm size 1080x1920, whatever which density（320 480 240）I've set, the screenshot could take a complete screen picture. while I change density, whatever resolution (720x1280, 480x800, 1080x1920), screenshot just take the top left part of screen...
partial screenshot is same condition , take a top left part of what I selected .
the screenshot on different resolution is the last issue I can found on AEX 6.0, which not contain on AEX5.x（maybe this is pie issue but still expect you can fix it） if I don't need change the resolution, the ROM is PERFECT?
can you fix this ?? thxxxxx a lot

Who is gonna fix what? Just use the phone the way its supposed to be used i dont understand what you are doing and why. If anyone, huawei can fix your issue i guess.... good luck talking to them.
You should read this, particularly the long answer near the top which explains the size vs density changes.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions...to-use-adb-shell-wm-to-simulate-other-devices
I think this is actually a bug in android pie. My phone has a 4k display, but normally uses HD res unless in gallery app. So I changed wm size and density to match the display (and despite what some other say, this actually changes the visible resolution, IF your display has this many physical pixels).
Screenshots worked worked fine in oreo, but after updating to pie, there are black borders on the picture.

No Huawei phone has a 4k display, this whole thread is a waste of space really, guy setting his phone display to something that is not supported and wondering why his screenshot won't work, damn mate 10 pro is 2160x1080 and can't be any more than that, if the problem was the screenshots not working in a supported mode there might be a reasonable and were but as it stands this thread should be closed and deleted

The whole point of my post was more like: its not a Huawei only "bug", but effects all (or at least most) pi phones with a custom wm size set. Maybe I was beating around the bush too much... :angel:

Hi, have you found any solution for the screenshots when you change the screen resolution? You're right it happens only in pie and with different phones, in oreo the multitasking previews resize when you enter to the app but the screenshots are ok, in oreo the previews in multitask are ok but the screenshot miss a part of the screen.
Hello every one, i found screen resolution setting and I'm wondering if actually this work, it can save the battery i think. use app shortcuts if you wanna find it.
On which android? Nougta or oreo?

It's funny because that option wont do anything on the lg g5 as the screen resolution feature is only compatible for the lg g6, v30, g7 and so on. Cause looking that the image it's says 1440 x 720 which for the record is HD 18:9
