The new wallpaper cropping in Gallery that comes with the 3.1 update is damn near infuriating. When trying to set a full image as a wallpaper, the double rectangle that they force on you leaves alot of the image inaccessable.
I've already tried Gallery 3D from the market, but setting wallpapers from it doesn't seem to take.
Anyone have another option they know to work?

Does anyone know of an advanced wallpaper app, or possibly a mod for the gallery available? I'm looking for something that maybe when cropping an image as a wallpaper adds lines for the center home screen in the crop box, and/or possibly can create a wallpaper that only takes up the Center home screen. I sometimes use the non scrolling wallpaper option in Launcher pro, so a narrower image would also suffice.
So, I'm not very happy with the wallpaper options in this phone. I understand that, it's more of HTC Sense setting, but it doesn't let me choose home or lock screen. Plus, when I choose a picture from my gallery to use as a wallpaper, the weird crop square shows up and doesn't let me use the whole picture. What's up with that? Am I missing something? What do other people think?
The wall paper is ok but, I went to the market and downloaded city at night wallpaper and its a lot better for my tastes.

You should use 960x800 sized wallpapers. You can't select the whole picture because your iPhone wallpapers or whatever are the wrong aspect. There are some good downloadable wallpapers in the HTC Hub and there are a million wallpaper apps in the market.
Your wallpaper is scrolling as you swipe left and right to different screens, that's why it's square. I just use 1920X1080 wallpapers and they look fine.
Just installed a new ROM on my Infuse, except I'm having an issue with the wallpapers for the home/unlock screen. The ROM I like the best is missing the stock wallpapers that come with other ROMs, but I downloaded them off the internet, I believe they are full res. On other ROMs that incluse the stock wallpapers, I can go to the gallery view and browse through them. I put the downloaded stock wallpapers in a folder called Wallpapers on my Infuse's main storage, but when I went into the phone to set the wallpaper, they didn't show up in the nice gallery view, they appeared in a 'browsed' format. Then the phone wants me to resize them for the screen. Then, when they are set, they don't look so great (low res). Is there anyway I can restore the traditional gallery to get the wallpaper set right?
And one other thing. Is there currently any ROM where you will immediately get audio from the first call without having to toggle the speaker? Thanks.
Unable to set wallpaper without cropping a portrait-ready-made-wallpaper, it's annoying because i made the wallpaper myself, in the settings (in this case Trebucher launcher) i made sure i deselected scrolling wallpaper, wallpaper is 720x1280 and if it's cropped it's made smaller and doesn't fit the screen like it should, are they any apps that fix that? i found an app the other day but i uninstalled it since the icon sucked and wanted to get rid of it.

First of all, I've tried applying a 1920x1080 wallpaper, a 4k wallpaper, and a 1440x2560 wallpaper. I've also looked on XDA and other websites and have NOT found a fix.
so, I'm using a 3rd party launcher (any has this issue) and whenever I apply a wallpaper, it zooms in the wallpaper and moves to the right. The only fix I've found so far is to have 3 pages and wallpaper scrolling on, but I want to have 1 page with wallpaper scrolling off.
Can anyone help me? My sister is also having this issue. I'm running OF1 (so is my sister) and don't think I have any OTAs. I'm also non-rooted.
