Does anyone have any reccomendations for an app for this:
Code:
every X minutes do
select 1 photo randomly from [ list, of, gallary, albums ]
auto crop
set as wall paper
Preferably where it is smart enough to crop the image as little as possible, many of my wall papers fall between 1024x768 to 1600x1200, so it's not so necessary on a TF lol.

I tried that but couldnt figure out how to have just one wallpaper and not the one paper for each screen. Is thatpossible?
Yes. Select "single picture" as your source. However there would be no picture scrolling. but it does prevent your wallpapers from being cropped/pixelated.
would it also allow periodic paper switching when single picture as source is selected?
That doesn't make sense. If you only choose a single photo of course it won't change. There is however an option to pick a folder and you can pick how many minutes before it alternates.You can also choose to double tap the screen for iimmediate change.

Thats why i asked. I (and the op i believe) want an app that changes the wallpaper randomly. Not to have different wallpapers for each page. Multi live wallpaper isnt what he needs then. Wallpaper slideshow isnt perfect but it does the trick.
I'm not exactly sure if its compatible with TF, but J4velin wrote an app called Wallpaper Changer that might be what your looking for.
Let me know if it works...
Here the market link: https://market.android.com/details?id=de.j4velin.wallpaperChanger&hl=en

wallswitch in the market does everything you want.
you can point it to a folder full of wallpapers and it will switch between them based on a timescale you want.
as long as the wallpapers in the folder are the correct size it does the job perfectly.

i dont think its optimised for tablets to be honest, although their is a setting you can choose where it doesnt crop the image.
Searching market for wall switch and multi live wall paper, suggests that it's near'ish what I want but not quite. All my stuff has been moved from a shared folder to Picasa, and I have so many that I needed 2 albums...bloody 1000 pictures to an album crap!
On the upside, looks like one of them has source available, so maybe I can figure sth out.

I am making some custom wallpapers for my Incredible, and am running into a few problems.
I am using photoshop and saving my pictures as JPEGs. They are 960x800 px.
They pretty big files, usually 1.5meg.
When I put the pictures on my sdcard, and I go to change the wallpaper, I go to gallery, then find the picture I have put on, and when I select the picture, it acts like it goes to the resize portion of the process, but then it just goes back to the gallery.
I have also tried loading the wallpaper straight through ASTRO file manager, with no luck either.
I'm sure I am missing something terribly simple, but I can't find it online.
Any help would be great. Thanks
There is an attachment of one of the images.
The problem is that we are 480x800

i dont think thats the problem. i cant even view the photo in gallery right. is there a limit to the size of the jpg?
The image that uploaded to the website is only 92.3kb. Just downloaded it and set it as a wallpaper no problem
1.5mb for a 960x800 image is HUGE.
I just played around with it for a bit and I think I figured out what your doing. Is your image properties set to cmyk (32bit)? That would explain why your file size is so big. Change it to rgb (24 bit). I'm thinking the android platform doesn't play to nicely with cmyk files.
I'm going to upload my cmyk file and see if this website automatically converted it to rgb on upload, which is what im thinking happened to your upload here.
Edit: yep that's exactly it. The website converted it, the attachment that was uploaded was 1.2mb and I just downloaded it; 94.3kb.
Awesome thanks for your help. I will switch it to rgb when I get home and try it out and report back

Hello guys,
I was just wondering if there was an alternative to multi picture live wallpaper? Since I got the JB update last night mplw isn't working for me.
I saw something in one of the recent JB threads that there's a single image live wallpaper but I can't find it.
Thanks.

Panoramic scrolling wallpaper?
Is there a way to have a panoramic picture (one i took preferably) to span the entire tab screens horizontal space.
Such that the left edge of the panorama is the left edge of left most home screen and right edge is right most home screen edge. So when you scroll home screens it scrolls along the panorama.
I have tried multiple apps, and the ones that allow me to select my pic, crop a small part of it for wallpaper, but i want the full picture.

An app to set that up would be amazing. Not sure if theres anything that does that now, but it is possible to do it manually with Multi Picture Live Wallpaper.
Take a panorama, split it into X parts where X is how many screens you have. Then set each part as the background for MPLWP
how can i add backgrounds to the s note? when i go to idea note i can see there are backgrounds but i want to add a background of my own.
In the notebook overview, select menu and import (next to add new note). Import a image file or a PDF with your background and select what type of note you want it to be. At least if you select a image file, the image is background for every page you add in that note.

going to test this, thank you
thank you, worked great
Note however, that if you manually change the background in the app for the given note you will lose the background image and I'm not quite sure how to insert it again in a existing note.
Edit: I found that in the new SNote version you can add your own image as a background where you change background by just clicking on the symbol in the upper right corner. The previous way was the only way to do it in the previous version as far as I know though, and since you're asking I assume you still have that on your tablet.

Then you have the precious version, and in that one I don't think there's any way to add a background without adding it as a picture.
You can't update it manually as far as I know, it's just a part of the JellyBean update that you probably soon will get. You can of course search for those kind of updates manually in settings.

The only icon that looks like that on my snote is the "insert object" one, but that doesnt change the background like you described above... unless I misunderstood what you wrote
*edit
Just looked at your post history and it appears our snote build number is different, even though we are both on JB. Mine is running the official ota from the other week, I guess yours is not?

The button doesn't set the background, it's letting you select an image to have as background and of course whether it should be for every page or just the one page you have selected. Mine is opening the gallery or the Dropbox folder, if your doesn't I don't think it's working.
I have the official UK ota from a couple of weeks ago, however I don't think it's necessary the same between regions and especially not if your is 4.1.2 instead of the 4.1.1 I'm running. Other than that, I have no idea why your version aren't the same as mine. But considering how badly mine is working as you might have seen in my previous posts, you have nothing to be envious about

Haha, I'm not sure where else to look for such a setting but It's a good thing you found it anyway!
Speaking of which, what is this small SNote file anyway? If that's the actual update that is causing so much troubles and removing it would be a solution, that can't be to hard even if it's requiring rooting the device?
I agree, that's really annoying and basically enough to make it useless for note taking in class where the tempo is fast. But other than that, the problems with the functions for recognizing different things you draw makes it not as out standing as it once were. It's a good thing there's LectureNotes and that the developer is so active to get things working a 100% and improving the application constantly. I can't wait to get the customizable drawing tools!
By the way, I called the samsung support in Sweden once again and the guy I speaked to today was sure that the only way to get the old SNote back was to do a factory reset after which he was very clear that doing any of the things I mentioned like rooting the device etc will destroy any warranty what so ever. But naah, I'll try again tomorrow, maybe even to the service center.
Anyone that has been more successful in their contact with Samsung? (sorry if this is considered OT)

Ok so i did a little research and nothing so far. I have a picture that i want to make my homescreen. I want to make it not have scroll but every app i found just blows it up and just centers the picture. i saw something about modded touch wiz but im hoping to find a easier way because honestly im on the run. I just want the image to be cropped to fit with no scroll.
Any help?
Try this app. It caused no excessive battery drain and it made it easy to set walls the way I wanted to. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cellophanesoftware.superwalllite
Also, you could download picspeed wallpaper app. It offers the ability to set a wall through the gallery using it and you can choose portrait mode. See screenshots. In the first pic, you'll select the 2nd option from the bottom. In the 2nd pic, you'll select the highlighted box on the left under the pic for portrait mode.
Good luck, let me know of any questions.

Picspeed is this app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.srsdev.wallpapers
The first one is a live wallpaper app, it will only show up if you select live wallpaper option. This is the reason I mentioned the piece about the minimal battery drain when using it. Go with Picspeed and see if it works for you first though. You may also have to use a 3rd party gallery to select the photo before setting it as your wall. I use quickpic cause it's fast. I just open quickpic, navigate to the photo I want, press menu soft key, select set as, select the option shown above in the pic, and boom! Works every time.

As the title says, I'm looking for an automatic wallpaper changer app. Must have the usual stuff; time presets, pointing to custom folder, etc.
But the most important part, also the reason why I've resorted to asking here after spending countless hours at the play store, is an app that allows me to customize each photo's alignment. My photos are mostly out of alignment whenever I use the more popular wallpaper apps out there. So I'm looking for one which allows me to preset the view for each photo before I let the program run.
Anyone with a suggestion?

I thought this app use to be a lot better. Older versions allowed you to create folders, then use a file explorer to manually add pictures from different folders. Now you can only select pictures using the gallery. I liked the file manager method
