30 Good Evo Wallpapers

Hey I went through and resized 30 wallpapers for the evo that I use on my phone. Hope you all enjoy.
Post some screen shots of you rocking the wallpapers if you want so we can all see.
Enjoy =)

Thanks! I'll post some screen shots soon

These are the ones I like most

Those look nice. Yeah that last one is one of my favorites. along with the stones one. it looks really good with all white text.

Hell yeah! This is freaking nice wallpapers too, none of those cheap ones!
Thanks, OP!

Your welcome. If I had more time I'd find more to resize.

nvm

Oooo I'm downloading that man. It looks good. My Fiance will want it on her evo for sure.

Very nice stuff! Thanks.

where can i find your clock and weather

Ok I'm hearing mixed views now so I'm confused.
All the tech sites say the evo resolution is 800x480 so I sized my wallpapers accordingly.
But I have someone say the resolution is 960x800. Which is true? I really didn't think the later is true because the official sites aren't saying it's that res.

pretty sure its 800x480
Anyways.. why is such a pain to set wallpapers. You shouldnt need to resize the wallpaper. Everytime i try to set a picture as wallpaper.. it makes me crop it and It never looks right.

Ok cool that's what I thought. Thanks for helping me clear it up.
I've also been wondering why of makes me resize. I'm wondering if that's a sense thing instead of an Android thing. Can anyone comment on that?

Hello all. I have compared the two sizes on a few evos by making wallpaper in both sizes. When you resize wallpapers at 960x800 it will look/be hi-res no questions asked. OTOH 800x480 is display resolution this DOES NOT equate to wallpaper size. Its definitely not wallpaper size.

I kinda like the argyle ones, but they're a bit too much for me personally.
I am trying out the following though.

It is 960x480 because there are the additional home screens

Thanks a bunch! Found a handful of them I like.

I'm glad people are liking them even though I guess they are the wrong resolution.
When I find some more that I like I'll make some in a better resolution and put more up.
I found these on deviant art. So if anyone sees any they like let me know and I'll check em out and add them to the list for you guys.

Hey I made another pack at the correct resolution if you guys want some more.

[APP] Ghost in the Shell Laughing Man Live Wallpaper

Original credit for the base animation goes to Sushiman0001. Thanks to Andrew101 for the Live Wallpaper Creator tool used to make this. My first attempt at a live wallpaper, so I tried to optimize for size, quality, and smoothness of playback.
Resolution set for Droid2 on "Large" and 20 FPS.
*note* I was too lazy to fix the naming on this, so it will show up in Apps/Wallpaper selection as "GITS"
Preview in attached jpg.

I don't think this got the credit it deserved...but THANKS!!!!!!! This is amazing work and I really like the creative thought that went into this.

Doesn't work on my Motorola Defy...sadly not even the preview.

doesn't work either on Nexus S...too bad

Doesn't work on the fascinate either.

works fine on DINC
skyraider 3.5

works on captivate and i love it! Thanks

Darn... I was gonna do this and you beat me to it Well done!

Thanks!! App is great. I set it to Big and 60FPS and although I probably won't be keeping it (because I like my static wallpaper), I still think it's fun!

Unfortunately does not work, Galaxy S.

Bugger, I was really excited when I saw this thread!

Perfect on Desire HD. Many thanks!

Does not work for Galaxy S2

Doesnt work on DInc running Uber Kingdom 3.0
It installed fine but when I went to set it the preview doesnt come up and when I hit apply it just went back to my original one. Love the idea though.

Works perfect on the Echo.

Dang was hoping this would work for me, thanks for sharing.

There should really be an updated version of this amazing wallpaper, 1080p and other sizes, both black and white background versions.
And why not, also bootanimation?

[GUIDE] Wallpaper-Template (Stock Launcher + LP) [UPDATE: 30-Jun-2011]

Hey there
Since it seems kinda hard to get your wallpaper not cropped, I made a template just for the TF (Stock Launcher)^^
The whole wallpaper has to be 2048x1504, even thought your homescreen will only show 1368x804 of the whole wallpaper...
Your wallpaper has to contain a section you will never see (top: 123px, bottom 175px)
And to on the left & right side 20px you will only see through the bounce-effect.
If the template is not enough I can write some guide for making wallpapers, too
Good luck ;D
UPDATE 27-Jun-2011:
Added new/updated templates:
Stock - 2048x1504
Stock - 1917x1408
Launcher Pro - 1700x1358
UPDATE 30-Jun-2011:
New Template for portrait mode - 2048x1504
So.. about the resolution thing... the transformer resizes the wallpapers to 1920x1408... so speaking of "sharpness" it doesnt matter if you make it 2048x1504 or 1920x1408 (template is still 1917... I mean... 3 pixels <.<)
The only thing that matters is what you want to see... if you got a bigger picture you want to see, take the higher resolution and the transformer will scale it down to 1920x1408 by itself.
Going to rewrite the guide for both resolutions tomorrow (if i have time to..)

*suggestion: maybe you can make us wallpapers, like make a wallpaper thread just for the TF.. just saying. / other than that, thanks for the template
Sent from GadgetViews.... Rockin Evo CM7 Nightlies.

the problem with making wallpapers is that I dont know what exactly you want to see on your homescreen
sure, if someone needs help I can build the wallpaper for him, its easy with wallpapers bigger than 2048x1504, but it gets kinda tricky if the wallpaper is smaller then you have to add custom borders to each site so the pic you want to see is in the center.
If you are ok with black borders around the pic, then thats no problem too, but if you dont want a black frame around the pic, it's a lot of harder to make it fit and look good
So if you can't get it done yourself, just ask If I got time to spare I'll help you out.

thanks for the template!
maybe someone should just make a wallpaper thread and we can all post ones that work nicely in it.
if no one makes one before i get around to making some wallpapers, i'll do it

2048x1504px
I was using 1920x1408 which seems to work perfect for me, I even checked if it gets resized using a 2x2px grid - strange.

I'm using Gimp for Windows, if anyone is wondering what app can be used too edit or resize a wallpaper.
GIMP FOR WINDOWS
I think this is the longest i have spent trying to apply a *^(%^(^%(^ wallpaper on anything and cant figure it out.
Using wallpaper wizardrii, isn't helping.
Holding the tablet horizontal 99% of the time, gives me short, not long enough, views of the wallpaper
I've tried the dimension up top in every way possible lol
H (2048) x W (1504)
also
W (2048) x H (2048)
I can take screen shots but im about too see if this tablet can/will be a true transformer out the window

yeah other resolutions should be okay as well but it seems like 2048x1504 is a good resolution if you want a pretty sharp picture

LP plus with auto-rotate

The original Asus tree wallpaper that was ripped from a TF was 2135 x 1408 pixels. I see that your dimensions are slightly different. Are you saying that the original had less/extra information in it than was necessary, or just that 2048 x 1504 looks good enough onscreen not to need to make it precisely like the original please?

Ah ok.. havent tried LP but i've heard that wallpapers behave different on ADW and LP, I'll test it myself later.

The resolution I use was mentioned in the Home Screen Thread and its working flawless. If you for example take my template and set it as your wallpaper, you will see that the crop-selection fills the whole pic. Even thought the crop-lines shown, arent the real ones you will have after the cut (Mine are the real ones.. )
the problem with 2135x1408 is that when you crop it, there is a part which is not in the crop-selection-field.. so you wont get 2135x1408, but 1917x1408 and your center screen will be about 1280x753... maybe they did it because display resolution is 1280x800.. but yeah they got 1280 with their version and we got x804 with mine maybe I should "optimize" it to x800 ;D

Ok cheers for the info.

So here is a first version of the launcherpro template
pic size is 1700x1358
homescreen is 1362x800
still trying to figure out whats the best resolution for the homescreen area...
EDIT:
see first post

sweet will try this..i am amking them @ 1920x1408

updated first post =)
if somebody still has problems just feel free to ask

So is there a special way to put these wallpapers into my Transformer (rooted) or do I just stick them in my SD?

Put them on the internal or external sd, long tap the homescreen, choose wallpapers, then gallery and search for your picture last you have to resize the crop-thing to cover the whole screen. at least thats the way for the stock launcher

Can someone resize this pic for me please, to have the better fit possible ?

Resized and added a black border.. should not be seen in use
Okay like that?

Thx, but definition image is blurry now
My original is 1680*1050, and you made 2048*1504 with my picture, the stretching modification render is not sharp now...
Picture resolution must be 1368x804 ? (with a little crop, to keep original ratio if necessary)
So can you make a picture with this resolution 1368x804
After resizing my picture, can you center it in your template, with black color surrounding in non-shown parts ?

k, sry i just made this up within a minute ;D without even testing it..
I'll make another version. Is there something you want to have on your homescreen for sure?

Confused! Coming from iphone 4

I am changing from the iphone 4 - and have the infuse arriving from amazon tomorrow.
I used it in store and really liked it, but when i was there again today and really compared the HTC Inspire 4G vs Samsung Infuse 4G the screen on the HTC just looks so much crisper, more in line with the iphone 4. The samsung looks kind of pixelated?
Convince me I bought the right one, lol - i dont want to go through the process of returning and re-ordering!
Catherine

Its a great phone I love mine. Just make sure because your coming from a iPhone. You know how to end running tasks. I got 3 coworkers to switch from iPhone's to the Infuse and all 3 returned the phone because of its battery life. Well first off its not a 3.4 inch screen. Its 4.5 and second they never ended there processes so they would run in the background with out them even knowing. Then there battery would run down in a hour or so and they would complain to me why there phone is acting the way it does. Just remember keep a open mind when switching to Android from Apple. Its not as user friendly but over all its the better choice.

The Infuse is better due to the larger screen, weighs less, louder sound, better camera, much better battery life, and so on!

the screen is huge you dont need to hold it so close to your face like the tiny iphone screen
also you will see that the many features of android more than make up for the iphones screen res. you will learn to love the infuse screen when you see bright colors over a black background. the contrast and color depth is unbelievable.

I had the same concern when I first got my Infuse (coming from an Inspire 4G). Change the font and the LCD density, and the pixelation goes away.

Thanks guys! Makes me look forward to it again - I gifted my iPhone to my dad who desperately needed an update from his iPhone 2. I have a rooted nook color and wanted an android phone, I think (hope) I will love it

How do you do these two things?

I'm pretty sure you can just download fonts from the market and install them, no root required. To change the LCD Density, you will need to root it. LCD Density is the simplest way to change your LCD Density (it's like changing your desktop resolution in Windows), but Root Tools can do that and much more. You'll have to root to use either app though.
Oh, and don't get excited about the option to change your boot animation in Root Tools; Samsung uses a proprietary format, so it is much harder to change their boot animations. I've come across a couple options, but have never tried any of them, so I can't make any recommendations.

I thought the alternative kernels included with our custom ROMs supported standard bootanimations?

Most, if not all, do. I was referring to using the stock ROM, unlocked.

[Q] LauncherPro Size for the Sensation

Hi, this is my first post so be kind
Im going to be buying a Sensation very soon, and will be using LauncherPro
I know that on WVGA phones, the size of the dock is 480*84, I was wondering if anyone knew (or could find out for me) the size to make it a perfect fit on the Sensations QHD screen?
I can find out when I get the phone, but it would be useful to know now so i can begin creating docks.
Any help would be good, thanks!

I use launcherpro on my sensation and u used the docks I had on my hd2 and u made no changes to them. They work well. I'm using coredroid 2.3.4

Thanks, im guessing that LP scales the image up, so the chances are that 540*94.5 (awkward size) will fit perfectly.

Yep, LP sizes the dock up automatically

I thought it would do, but im looking to get the image a perfect size, so that theres no stretching (and consequently pixellation)
