Is there someone who use an high contrast (white background and black text) and a big button dialpad (with the smartdial function enabled!), because i suffer of a sight disease so in conditions of use in the daylight i don't see well the dialpad!
Thank's

there are plenty dialskins around if you like you can find piles more using google
Sorry, but on the link you show, there are only normal skins and not special skin
for those like me are almost blind !!
All my researchs on google were unfruitful for a very high contrast dialpad.
Thank's the same
Well, there are topics on high contrasts pad discussed here, probably just need to search more.
Anyway, the phone pad shown above are made up of various BMP images that can be easily modified to suit your needs.
Discussion here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=267180&highlight=black+white+pad
just download and replace the file, I think. probably need to convert it to BMP (AFAIR, it is in BMP format)
Hi guys,
So I was hunting around to figure out what the wallpaper size is for the Nexus One... most people seem to state it is 960x800, or 2 times wider than the standard 480 resolution.
I did a test to see how it would look on the device by creating a 960x800 image with red vertical lines every 192 pixels (which will divide it horizontally 5 times to match with the 5 home screens on the N1). Much to my dismay, it actually renders it differently (showing almost 3 of the 192px blocks on the center screen).
When swiping back and forth, it seems like there is some sort of parallax scrolling going on. You can see a full screen of apps/widgets (480px wide) scroll to the side, but you will see the background move some other amount of pixels. It's almost as though the background is scaled in some fashion horizontally. I was assuming it would somehow work like the home screens on the N900, where each screen has 1 block of 800x480 wallpaper space...
Anyone have some insight into what is going on here?

I'm not exactly sure what resolution the backgrounds are, but the "parallax scrolling" has been used in Android since the G1.
If you pick an off-sized background, the OS will tell you to crop it, and the height width ratio is almost square. Anyway, each panel of the home screen will share a bit of the background with the adjacent home screens.
Yup, each homscreens background overlaps with the ones on either side of it.
I believe the correct resolution for the N1 is 960x854
The resolution should be 960x800, because the Nexus is not the droid, it's 800 pixels not 854.
And for there to be 5 home screens on 960 wide, it's only going to scroll 1/5th of the image on each home screen. The parallax scrolling is a cool feature.
Of course it's going to show almost 3 of the 192px blocks on the center screen, because the center screen is 480px wide.
960x800 is correct. Additionally, you could've sorted this quickly by pulling the Launcher2.apk from /system/app, then extracting it and checking the size of the default wallpapers.
So here is another question. Does anyone think its possible to change the scrolling of the background (and size) such that it would be 1 480x800 size block PER home screen?

When I had my g1 the Photoshop app would set wallpapers without asking for cropping even 480x800 so I would use iPhone wallpapers cause we allow know most Mac useres are have some skill in graphics design. Anywho when I tried to use this work around on my nexus it did not work, I'm looking further into this!

Came across this. I want to disable scrolling on the background wallpaper too and have a static image. Any updates?
Wallpaper Set & Save is a basic free app from the market that works wonders with hi-res and off-sized images...
Me too
Also having issues with this
Only using one homescreen...and the settings either zooms or stretches the HOMEMADE wallpapers

Yes, you absolutely need this app if you want to change your wallpaper, the built-in gallery just doesn't work.
Wallpaper Set & Save
downloaded, tried...no luck
Yea, it didnt work for me either. I formated some images to 480x800, but it just zooms in on them. Cant believe something so damn simple is so tough.
Guys, I found a solution. It is called Wallpaper Plus. Yes it is $1.99, but it is worth it. Not only can you do 1 static image with no scrolling, it will also let you pick images and "sew them together such that each screen is a different image! So right now I have 5 pictures that I choose, that the program formatted for the size of my screen and stitched together. Now when I scroll through my screens, I see a different image on each one, rather than one large image. But like I said, it can do just one static image as well! I highly recommend. I know the cost sucks, but at some time we need to support these developers making the things we want for our phones if they are gonna stay on the platform and develop more things!
Hi,
You've certainly seen that each time you want to use a picture as a wallpaper, the operating system is resizing it and you're loosing a part of your picture.
Nobody from HTC has been able to answer about the right size of images to have it wallpaperized... so I tried some resolutions to finally find which fits the best.
Here is how to make a wallpaper for the QHD resolution of the Sensation :
I'm working with The GIMP, but every image software will be able to make you wonderfull wallpapers.
First of all, you have to crop your image to a 9:16 ratio. Easy to do : the tool for cropping can be forced to keep a fixed ratio, very usefull.
When this is done, resize your picture to the exact size of 540x960 ((width x length). If the picture is widened, don't hesitate to use a filter to soften it to your liking.
After that, create a new picture at the exact size of 674x1198 (to avoid white lines on the left and the right on the phone) --> copy and paste your picture in the new one, it shoud appear in the middle with big white margins.
Save this picture (i choose png but jpg shoud also work).
Finally, send this to your phone or transfer it.
When you choose your lovely picture to become a wallpaper, the cropping will only cut white margins ! \o/
it works! Thanks.
Hi everyone,
Yesterday I took a picture, and I put a filter (black & white) from the android photo editor (the pencil icon) and I say OK. But I want to have my original picture without the filter, but I don't know how I can do that ! I know that's possible because when I open the photo, it shows me the original (colored) and I then I see the filter appears and my picture becomes black and white.
I already tried to go to the pencil icon, where there are filters, but it offers me filters ON the previous filter (black and white), any options to go back to the original...
Have a good day,
Kevin
Anyone ?
Why ask this here?
This subforum is about Tasker.
Anyway, I don't think what you are asking is possible.
After switching to the Galaxy S10 phone, I noticed that the gallery photo editor application is robbed of its best features. it's so frustrating when these manufacturers just arbitrarily decide to screw up a good thing.
I constantly and I mean constantly use gallery photo editor and the eyedropper feature to select a custom color and then use the pen to edit out things in images I don't visible. I make them disappear by writing over them in the exact custom colors that already exist in the image. I choose that color with the eyedropper!
Now it seems you either have to overlay a text box over the top which flat out doesn't work because the new text box interface is so bulky and ridiculously lacking because it only has a very very few options. The NEW UNIMPROVED paint feature has ONLY 10 or so canned multicolor designs you can print with... WHO WANTS TO PAINT WITH MULTICOLOR DESIGNS? (KINDA DUMB, but okay)
1. Please don't tell me to go download it because I already look for it and it isn't there.
2. I already tried clicking the upper right corner and clicking advanced and then clicking the pencil to edit and then going through all the options inside that area and it's not there.
3. I've tried using the key combination to create a screenshot and several third-party apps to create screenshots in my efforts to find the eyedropper and it is not there.
4. Please don't tell me to go download Photoshop or some other app I don't want too; I just want my photo editor eye-dropper back!!
I use it constantly and I mean constantly 50 times a day! I take screenshots and edit out ads and things like text and hearts and stars to indicate the item is a favorite etc. using the eyedropper to select the custom background color and then the pen to write over the top of whatever it is you don't want visible makes it blend right into the background... THIS IS SO UNIMAGINABLY BASIC!
I be already spent weeks hunting for where the ability to add an image inside another image and finally was able to find it obscured in stickers area! I've searched and searched every possible conceivable section for any imaginable way they might have hid in the eye dropper and I just can't find it!!
I just want my eye dropper back! It's causing massive problems because I can't do what I need to do 100 times a day!!
Can someone within the limitations outlined above 1 through 4 please PLEASE tell me where the eyedropper went?!?
I'm in the SAAAAMMMME BOAT.
I manage several different social media accounts, and have used this feature FOR YEARS to edit out extraneous things. It was simple and easy.
Weirdly enough, it was there in November, so it kept my main sampled color as an option, WHICH IS THE ONLY WAY I can basically continue to do what I do. This has been a nightmare.
If you find anything out, PLEASE let me know.
I'll also do the same.
You mean this?
To do this?
Thanks ?
That option does not show up if you have selected the edit dialogue box to pop up after you screencap, as it used to.
But this is very helpful. THANK YOU!
It's on the color palette now
