For a while now I've been using this app called autoresizewallpaper to put landscape wallpapers on my homecomb tablet. It works better than live wallpaper widget but its kind of hard to use. It puts wallpapers on perfectly and keeps the high resolution that HC supports.
Here's the link: https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.hyoromo.automaticsettingwallpaper&hl=en
Anyway you guys should give it a try and see how it works for you.
Btw: make sure that you read the settings because it can be difficult to set up and apply, but its completely worth it.

I don't know about you guys, but being a landscape only user it really bothers me that I have to switch to portrait when changing my live wallepaper. So I fixed up the orientation settings in the LiveWallpapersPicker.apk to support sensor rotation this morning.
It's setup for a CWM flashable zip.
Again this is only for a deodexed rom such as Overcome 2.0. You may be able to use it on an odexed Rom if you delete the LiveWallpapersPicker.odex file, but I haven't tested that.
Before you ask any questions re-read over this post
I'm asking another question, as i prefer to use my tab on landscape mode too
for normal wallpaper, what resolution would be best for it?
coz if i use the available wallpaper, when turned to landscape, the bottom part got cut off
it doesnt
and if you know, where can i download wallpaper that fits landscape mode? i mean an app like flikie wallpaper HD or a site maybe
thanks before
Yeah I have found the same thing. Interestly though it seems to be more pronounced on ADW EX whereas GO launcher seems to display them correctly or close enough that it looks good. Its a great app with some awesome papers but I suspect its got more to do with perhaps the home screen in use when its set. Needs more experimentation but I'm flat out like a lizard drinking ATM.. :-D

To fit best I think its easiest to turn off the scrolling, that's what I always do. For static walls I think your able to figure out the total width, but live wallpapers depend how they're programed.

I'm using the standard HC launcher, and I can't seem to figure out how the heck to use a standard 1280x720 image as my wallpaper. Is this doable without having to only use the standard HC wallpapers?
You can try this one : https://market.android.com/details?...50YW1hbmVnaS53YWxscGFwZXIubXVsdGlwaWN0dXJlIl0.
That will do the job for you.
Alright so I've rooted and got everything updated on 6.2.1 and I've purchased the Christmas HD 3D livewallpaper by dualbootgames and I've noticed the scrolling doesn't appear to work on not just this wallpaper but any wallpaper. Is there a way to make it work?
I was on Go Launcher and I thought maybe it was just that but I downloaded ADW and it still doesn't allow scrolling even with all the settings set to allow scrolling.
As far as I can find out, there's no way to get scrolling wallpaper on the Kindle Fire version of the OS. I'd never actually seen scrolling wallpaper in action till I loaded CM7 on my Fire. Spent a lot of time poking through various files trying to figure out a way to enable it in the stock OS, but no luck.
Ok that's all I wanted to know, thanks. It'd be nice to get it working without having to go to CM7 imo but it is what it is.
I'll add that I'm no expert, so perhaps someone with more skill than I can find a way to enable wallpaper scrolling. I'd certainly like to have it without having to go to CM7. (at least until CM7 has full ability to run the apps that run on the stock OS.)
Here is a solution many people are desperately in need of for the Kindle Fire. This is a side loaded .APK that DOES NOT require Rooting! The ever changing lock screen/wallpaper is obviously annoying to the vest majority of us. I have found two apps that can take care of this. They appear to be very similar but one is in (a) Google Play[Market] and the (b) other is freely available on the web with no login necessary and explains to the novice how to install in simple terms and pictures.
a) Wallpaper Change Kindle Fire by DPAPPS - (Google Play / Android Market)
and
b) My Kindle Wallpaper - to find it, Google --> "kindlecooltricks wordpress" and it was the 3rd in the list as of this posting. You should be able to easily find it.
Now to get everyone started, here are 20 desktop picture. What can you make and share ?
Here are a few more....
Enjoy and let me know what you think of the pictures and programs; as well as how it is working for you?
Thanks for the app suggestion. Happen to have pics zipped?

Thanks. I'm using My Kindle Wallpaper (the second one linked) and it's getting the job done.
thank you for this! i was getting so tired of the wallpapers that come on the kindle. Now everyday I just choose which one I want, and they are the perfect size!
None of them used my selected picture on 6.3,

Used the method you suggested and it worked. I kinda have a question, for a split second when I wake my KF, the default wallpapers that are built into the device show up before the ones I've saved for the DPAPP application. Is there a way that I can completely shut off the default ones?

thanks been looking into this for so long will have to put on my mother inlaws kindle tonight
sweet switching!
Great app! Someone earlier had tried to change my wallpaper to some crazy pic using settings, except this app automatically switched it back to my selection--I never even noticed the change; this is nice, people can't prank my paper! Unless they used this app/kinda obscure anywho
VERY appreciative, thanks for the post
dpapps didnt work for me at first as the pictures were all too big even at 1024x600 resolution.
i solved the issue by removing go launcher ex and then it worked
i then reinstalled go launcher and it still works great
apparently go launcher ex changed the default wallpaper settings on both sides of my kindle, the carousel and go launcher. hopefully this helps anyone experiencing the same issue
My Kindle Wallpaper is working great! My eyes thank you!

Amazon's update 6.3.1 for non rooted KFs fixes the problem many have had with selecting a specific wallpaper....
awesome ! Thanks so much.. Fantastic apps for changing wallpapers...:good::good::good::good::good:
I have Team Eos 2.0 installed on my Xoom and i want to remove multiple homescreens cause 1 is enough for me,is there any tweak or any way to do that?
I also would like to add this wallpaper:

as defaul without cropping it, because when im trying to put it i have to always crop it first so it fits in landscape and portrait mode and it screws all the quality of the wallpaper, any suggestions?
I don't think 7he ROM itself is set up for custom home screen counts. But you can download a replacement launcher like Nova Launcher or Apex Launcher. Those are ICS ready and are favored by many. Both are free. Give em a spin

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I was wondering the same thing you were, so I took Legatos suggestion and installed nova launcher to see what it does and it took care of the multiple homescreens and other little things.... but i kept having problems with my wallpapers resolution which always have from the start, like you. Try multi picture live wallpaper app. I really like the results. I tried it on the wallpapaer you provided, and considering it isn't optimized for xoom, i think it is turning out pretty good.... hope this helps you, it has me.
id also recommend multi picture live wallpaper, does the job nicely plus its free
