Goto to gallery, select your picture. When the picture crop option comes, check for the two rectangles below, select the portrait rectangle and crop you wallpaper. You will have non sliding, single screen wallpaper.
if you dont want the wallpaper to scroll go to your launcer's menu and uncheck "wallpaper scrolling"
I dont see these options in ics...

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.
I'm curious to find out how you all apply your wallpaper.
while the 1920x1408 wallpaper seems perfect, when applying it through gallery, a good portion of the wallpaper is cut off, and i find the quality isn't great/ideal.
I suppose i could just long-press in the browser on a wallpaper i want, and choose "set as wallpaper", but there are other options too.
So how do you all apply your wallpaper? What works best?
[Note: There was no need for the fourth option in the poll-- sorry. This was my first time seeing/creating a poll.]
Multipicture live wallpaper is another good one to get full picture, or 7.

I use QuickPic as an habit because the gallery in the Galaxy tab dosen't like anything that isn't the exact resolution of the display. Plus it's a great gallery app anyway.
Could not find an answer anywhere. I would like to have just one wallpaper for all screens just like stock launcher scrollable. Multipicture set the same picture in each screen so when you scroll the whole pic. moves too. is there any fix to this could not figure out?

Thanks for helping, that was one of the things i tried did not work
Hello. Why is it that everytime i change my wallpaper with an image sized 480x800 i got a cropped wallpaper even though i selected all the image (the box cropping thing)? What is the right screen resolution for a home screen (full screen) Thanks!
wallpaper are manager by launcher and gallery, with xxkpq stock and zeam launcher you can set wallpaper vertical, anyway remember there are also a notification bar

yes i know sir, but somehow. it isn't fixed as i want it to be. its cropped.
i'm trying to set a single screen wallpaper on my XE, the size of the pic at the moment is 540x960. but when i try to set the wallpaper it only allows me to get half of the pic, what size should the wallpaper be so when i select it i can choose the whole pic and not half. any good wallpaper apps would also be appreciated. thanks...........................sudeki300
It should be about 1080x960 to get the full wallpaper in there.
You can use the GIMP and it's Resize Canvas tool to make white space on the sides of the image to convert the image to 1080x960. If you post the wallpaper or link it, I can do it for you.
Image 2 Wallpaper is on the market and can do it for you, as well.
here is the pic i'm trying to use, is that the correct size for setting the wallpaper using the screen size thingy that is used before setting a wallpaper in sense, sorry i don't know the correct name for the app. thanks buddy...................sudeki300
Try this one.
that was super fast give me a sec and i'll try it.................sudeki300
works ok in sense launcher (little blurred on the text) but when i try to set the pic in nova or apex launcher i get half the screen with the image and the other half in black. how can i fix this?..............sudeki300
edit: it's ok i sorted it, forgot to turn off wallpaper scrolling (duh). thanks so much for your quick help, that's why i love XDA forum........................sudeki300
Set Nova and Apex Launcher to not scroll the wallpaper and make sure its cropped right down the center (that resizable rectangle screen) and it should work fine. This wallpaper will not work in landscape mode (apex or nova's auto-rotate feature) cause it'll leave black bars along the side.
Text shouldn't look blurry because I shrunk it from its original size, if anything, it should look crisper. I'm away from my PC right now but I can assist you further later.
