I have made an image 480X800. LCD Density = 240
I try to set is as my wallpaper and it will only let me select about half of it as my wallpaper, the box doesn't expand to include all of the wallpaper.
Is there a trick to this?

I am decorating my HD2 with gothic style wallpaper. I applied the same wallpaper onto the lock screen and home screen, the one on lock screen display perfectly with high resolution and detail, very sharp and bright. However the same wallpaper displayed on home screen is very poor in quality, blur, flat and not in the correct scale.
Is there any specific size i need to crop the wallpaper to inorder to have it display correctly on the home screen? Thanks

480 x 800
Search for HDWall, also apply HQ Wallpaper Patch for your Manila version.

Sorry, i am not sure about what jive means but when you create a wallpaper with HDWall (it is a cab) is for all backgrounds / tabs of Sense.

Jive = work.
is that means simply cropping or creating a 800 x 480 px picture on photoshop will not display correctly when I set it as Home screen wallpaper on HD2? I change the wallpaper by going:
Menu > Home Wallpaper > Weather Wallpaper > (my wallpaper file)
Does it make a different if I had Cookies Home tab and editor installed? I am running a stock rom. Or it is a must to create the wallpaper with the HDWallS and install the HQ Wallpaper Patch for your Manila inorder to have it display correctly?
Thanks~
It doesn't matter the software you use to create a wallpaper, it just has to be 400x800 to fit the whole screen. After that you create a cab by using HDWall and it will make every tab with the same background, HDWall also makes the wallpaper from the top to the bottom (no curtains), remember, install HQWallpaperPatch (the right one for your manila version) to get high quality background in you screen.
Of course, when you have a .jpg or .png file you just copy it to My Documents/My Wallpapers (i don't know if that is the right name in English) and then from your Today screen you can go to Configuration -> Personalize -> LockScreen background and change to whatever you want.

Doesn't matter, when creating a cab with HDWall you don't need BG4All anymore, no need to uninstall.
Rgds,
thanks! I now have installed the patch and created the cab with HDWall. Home screen displayed the wallpaper perfectly now, though seems to be a bit complicate method to have it displayed correctly. Think I need to spend some time getting know HDWall to use it properly.
Is that means I will have to create the cab on a computer each time when I want to change the wallpaper and no alternative method to change it directly like other phones ususally do? Do I have to unstall the current cab before installing the new one?
thanks for your clear explaination. cheers!

No, you do not have to uninstall first, when installing another one your device will uninstall the previous one at first so no worries.
You can also try Bwizard: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=681341
Another possibilty is changing background wallpaper directly by going to Configuration -> Personalize -> Today Home Screen Background but this way it will only change your Today screen, when you want the same wallpaper in every tab you will have to install BG4All (search for it) and probably a couple of small applications to remove top and bottom curtains.
It's up to you, hope it all will help you.
Rgds,
android always asks me to crop the image, but i just want to use the whole thing as a non-scrollable background. how do i do it? thanks!
p.s. rom=hypernonsense
Wallpaper Wizardrii from the market. Select your picture, use non-scroll and scale options. Problem solved.
thanks, got it!
Has someone notice this problem? When i try to change the wallpaper it appears the frame to resize the wallpaper like in the lockscreen wallpaper. So, Im not able at all to set my wallpaper at full screen such in normal process.
Not a bug, just how it is
Use zedge to apply wallpapers. Problem solved

Is there a tweak to enable live wallpapers for the lock screen? I've searched everywhere for this ability and nothing has come up. I think Live Wallpapers would actually be better on the locked screen than in their current form, behind widgets and icons/labels etc.
If not, anyone up for a project to facilitate this ability?
Set a transparent image for the lockscreen wallpaper.
All ROM's other than stock do this by default. I always see the default wallpaper, live or not on the lockscreen.
hmm, weird...
I made a transparent 480x800 .png image, but my lock screen is black[aside from the date and time etc].

Just setting a transparent wallpaper won't work. Has to be placed in the framework-res.apk.

I recently purchased a Moto X and instantly fell in love with all the phone had to offer. I like to change the wallpaper around and found that when i download a wallpaper and set it, the black bar appears on the bottom of the phone, making the phone's screen appear smaller.
I went to gallery and on the set to wallpaper, I pinched to zoom in just a tad, set, and long behold the blackbar was gone. I was running apex launcher. The tip is pretty simple but i'm sure there are users out there that have no idea.
If this helped you feel free to send a thanks over! :good:

Hi, I'm having this problem. But pinching doesn't seems to work, or maybe I don't know how you did it, could you please explain a little more?
PS. Sorry, english is not my first language
What's the image size of the wallpaper?
Today I Found that if you Download the wallpaper or image size of 1080x1920 There would be no need to pinch to zoom, you just set the wallpaper from gallery with the size of 1080x1920
Here are steps:
1. Download wallpaper/Image (size 1080x1920 )
2. Open gallery and find your downloaded image
3. Click settings button, click "set picture as"
4. Click set wallpaper. (If your size isn't 1080x1920, then you will have to zoom in until the blackbar is gone )
The web site that i use for most my wallpapers is interfacelift. Size is 1080x1920,
Let me know if this helped you out.
Also just cropping it with photos instead of gallery works
Image 2 Wallpaper app in the play store works great for all picture sizes....it's free.

Actually any 720x1280 image will work, notice that i did not say 1280x720.
the minimum height of the image should be 1280 and width of 720 or more, the important thing to make the black bar disappear is to beminimum height of 1280
We are used to seeing images of the shape of our monitors, 720 high and 1280 long
