HTC LiveWallpaper Slidshow - HTC Sensation

This bug has appeared in every ICS ROM for the Sensation and I am actually surprise no one has reported it. This minute, subtle, annoying bug has driven me face first against a wall . Before I start explaining the problem here are some screenshots.

Left Image:
This is how the wallpaper SHOULD look like when using HTC LiveWallpaper Slideshow. As you can tell it is not magnified and zoomed in. This is how it looked like when using HTC LiveWallpaper Slideshow on Gingerbread.
Right Image:
The wallpaper is obviously magnified using HTC LiveWallpaper Slideshow. Every image is zoomed in and distorted affecting its quality.
Solution I have tried but failed:
People have told me it was due to the wrong ratio size of the wallpaper. This is NOT TRUE! Regardless of ratio of the wallpaper, it will never magnify the image because this had never happened in Gingerbread. Despite that, I have gone ahead and used wallpapers that were 540x960 and lower. No matter what ratio the wallpaper is, using HTC Livewallpaper Slideshow on ICS, it will always magnify the pictures.
Help:
I primarily use HTC Livewallpaper Slideshow to display pictures of my family and friends but I am unable to do so because of the magnification issue. Imagine a baby face instead of a tree in the screenshot and how it will look. Just very annoying looking through a Slideshow of smudged and disoriented faces.
I don't know much about porting, but is anyone able to just port the GB HTC LiveWallpaper Slideshow on to ICS directly? Or will that cause a problem? Please, can someone look in to it?

Hate to say it, but I experience the same thing. I know exactly what you are talking about regarding the "movement". Transitions? Although that is a great feature, it does not solve the magnification problem.

Sense 4.0 might allow you to use MultiPicture Live Wallper, though. It doesn't work with Sense 3.x, but perhaps with Sense 4.0? I know it's not exactly a solution to your issue, but it might be worth looking into.

This should be moved to the q&a section dude this is a development thread

Sorry man, I know this is annoying but it is obviously a bug in the HTC code and the devs can't fix it.
Why don't you simply surround your picture with a large black border and then it will get cropped off to the right size auto-magically?

Does anyone know how to change the length of time between pictures changing? I want it set to hours not minutes!

On sense 3.6 I don't think you can but with sense 4.0 you get to choose between 3 options. Just click on the htc livewallpaper and preview it. From there, there is a settings button then you can take it from there.

Thanks for the tip guys I'm trying to multi live app and it works nicely, I can change the timing to an hour (altho there are lots of times when the picture changes prematurely, but that it's ok with me) but I've noticed that my selected camera shots still zoom in, like the OPs, but my downloaded wallpaper images do not! They look perfect. Way

Have you found a solution yet? Still happening with multi live wallpaper in 3.6

No. This can't be a hard fix at all...

It is HTC Dev Team's fault, they did not build Sense 3.6 properly. AOSP ICS allows wallpaper scrolling, that is why Sense 3.6 got the same resolution as AOSP which is 18:16.
my advice is edit all your photo/picture using Adobe Photoshop by manipulating Canvas Size (under Image menu). **Canvas Extension Color : Black**
Here is quick guide to help you:
1) First, edit your photo to 9:16, using Rectangular Marquee Tool, Style: Fixed Ratio
2) Image menu > Canvas Size. change 'cm' to 'percent'. set '200' for Width
By doing these, your image will be in the middle of black 'space' and the processed image will be nicely fit into your screen

As for Sense 4.0, just resize/crop the image to 18:16 ratio then it will be very nice with the Pan & Zoom transition effects =)

Hey, I want to thank you. This seems to be the only way to fix this issue. Although it is tedious, livewallpaper is something I must have.

[Q] Really Poor Graphics Quality

I've search before post this new thread.
I'm currently using Nexus S with [Oxygen ROM] + the latest Nov23rd [franco.kernel].
I've tried CyanogenMod7, NSCollab & Oxygen ROM and all of them has a bad
graphics quality. I mean when I set a gradient image to my home screen wallpaper,
the result show up is a poor quality gradient image like this :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
FYI :
I'm using both JPEG & PNG image extension.
Either jpeg or png is generate the same result.
Am I the only one who experience this?
Is it normal for my Nexus S?
If it's not normal, then how to fix it? is there any drivers / kernels / scripts?
The big question is, why don't google pay some attention to the image quality?
Please help me to solve this problem.
You made me curious about this, so I searched for a gradient image and it looks fine. Are you sure it's not just the image quality? Try finding a HD image.

Are you sure it looks fine on your NS ?
I've try to made some gradient image from photoshop and
I made bigger resolution about 1000x X 1000x. And the result is the same.
I'm not sure whether it's about a lack of some kind of image drivers
or maybe the it's just about the image color problem....
Btw, are there some kind of driver fixing things in NS?
Mine looks nice. Its samoled so its going to have some dots.

But mine is SCLCD. And I'm sure this is not related to a particular type of screen
technology. I was using Samsung Galaxy S I9003 which use SCLCD screen and
have no problem with the image quality. I was very smooth in I9003.
Now, how can I9023 has this problem? How to solve this? Please help me.
I guess you are using GO Launcher Ex. Try enabling the Preferences » Advanced Settings » High quality drawing option.
Note that it may reduce the overall performance of the launcher & app drawer though (slower transition, lagging, etc.)

Yes I do. But I've checked the option up.
The same result is shown on the Stock Launcher.
Is there another way to solve this?
Try a lower resolution. Try using the native wallpaper resolution for hdpi android phones.

Try setting the wallpaper from within the Browser instead of using Gallery. The gallery app has terrible colour depth.

The image I used on Samsung Galaxy S I9003 (with SCLCD) has no such problem.
Seriously, Am I need any drivers for the phone?
I'm sorry for this stupid question. I'm just a noob who eager to learn
Your image resolution is strange. The typical wallpaper size for Nexus S should be 960×800 (width×height)
I guess the launcher tried to resize the image to match the appropriate size, that's why the gradient pattern got stretched.

Do you mean that the Go Launcher Ex is trying to resize the wallpaper?
I have tried this on Stock Laucher too and the result is the same.
Is this related to the ROM (oxygen) I'm using on?
or the kernel (franco) ?
OMG...!!!
I just flashed my Nexus S back to MIUI and.....
OH MY GODSSS...!!!
I'm not experience this issue on MIUI ROM 1.11.18.
This is the wallpaper I'm using on.
MIUI is a great ROM but I don't really like it because
of its heaviness. I prefer Oxygen ROM because it's light.
The image above is the same photoshop creation I made.
With the same image size but in different color.
Anybody can solve this problem ? Please help me.

what he ^ said
plus try this resolution: 960x800
thats the native wallpaper size for the nexus s.
if you went over it will get compressed to that size which may cause unwanted effects. ie what youre having.

The image resolution I made was 960x800 already. And the result is the same.
I have never experience this on my old I9003 which is also using SCLCD.
This issue is also happen on Stock Launcher.
Any other suggestions?

Edit: The image in your first post has noticeable banding BTW. Crappy quality picture = crappy output...

how was this possible. uncrop wallpaper stock launcher?

i was playing with my TF700, webbrowing etc and i decided to change wallpaper. i don't use any launcher cause i much prefer the stock launcher and more so now after JB. When i selected the wallpaper (offical asus wallpapers) i notice that it did not crop, it actually show the entire 1920x1200 wallpaper in full. It looked so much cleaner and sharper, made me appreciate the screen much more. I did not change to a different wallpaper cause i was afraid to lose it but after i rebooted my device a day after, the wallpaper became crop again.
Anyone know how is this possible. i want my wallpapers back WITHOUT using a different launcher OR livewallpaper (which slowdown the tablet)

id like to know this as i went to a musuem and took a lot of high quality pics to use as wallpaper. i wish i could use the full image instead of a cropped one.
I just changed my wallpaper as well, and it's uncropped. I believe this is a new part of JB that we're seeing.

Use picspeed, install picspeed, go to your gallery, click on picture you want to use, in the dropdown menu on the top right select set as, then you'll youu an option that looks like wood thats for picspeed, click that, choose the widescreen format and scrollable (wont scroll) then set wallpaper. Very close to uncropped, just ever so slightly, hopefully picspeed fixes this, much better than standard way of setting wallpaper.

picspeed doesn't work to well, it use to work great with the prime but some how not well with the infinity. You cannot select the stock wallpapers either with picspeed.

Maybe use Mood ICS LWP?
Here's what I did;
Take a full resolution video of phase beam from YouTube, download it, turn it into a gif, use image editor to crop the status bar and dock from the gif, change the hue of the gif (color) until it gets reddish color that we want, save it again as another gif, use AnimGifWallpaper 2 to set the gif as a wallpaper, and then: profit
But the video2gif conversion made the gif look like crap 240p quality, so that's where it messed up. But other than that it was all good. I could have upped the frames per second during vid2gif conversion but "ain't nobody got time fo dat" (take 60+ minutes to convert at full quality that I downloaded it which was 720p).

I found a youtube video and a download link to the red phase beam apk (also called sunbeam).
Don't switch the video off too soon! The guy first shows you a google play version of the app and then gives you a link to a free extracted apk version.
I just downloaded it and it works well, hopefully there is no malware in it!
Hope theses links are allowed in here, otherwise just delete it!

Tholotis, blurring the line between perfection and reality. Literally.
Tholotis is minimalistic app that enables you to blur, dim, and save your wallpapers.
Done blurring and dimming? Let BackDrop™ take over, an algorithm that produces pixel perfect wallpaper optimization.
Moreover, make your homescreen glow by tinting your wallpaper in your favorite colors.
Complete feature list:
- Pick current wallpaper or select from gallery
- Blur, dim
- Tint (Paid feature)
- Crop, rotate image
- Produce pixel perfect wallpapers with BackDrop™
- Set wallpaper, save to gallery
- Share
.....
"Tholotis" is a transliteration of the Greek word "θολότης", which means "blur".
Much of Tholotis' design was based on Roman Nurik's extraordinary app Muzei.
Tholotis is not a "cheap copy" of Muzei. Muzei is a live wallpaper, while Tholotis is a tool for blurring images and saving them in your Gallery. Tholotis just resembles Muzei in the sliders layout, the resources of which were directly taken from Muzei since it's an open source app. Everything else is entirely my creation. Credits were given to Roman Nurik in the Play Store app description.

wow You're in xda portal

I like it but i wish there was a way to save the wallpaper without setting it automatically
Sent from my SGP311 using Tapatalk
it says save to gallery but does not save ...just applies the wallpaper directly
Nice app. 3 additional sliders to saturate R G B colors would be nice.
Hey Chris95X8.
I remember your work from SE X8 times..
I see you made big progess That's great!
Really nice app!
Any chance for saturation sliders?
Great app! Works very fast and effortless :good:
Small feature request: Would be great if "Save to gallery" option would only do that and not also set it as wallpaper.
awesome thanks
Nice app
I like the app but I am getting FC when applying the wall. Anyone else ? Nexus 5 stock 4.4.2.
Looks really nice!
Maybe add feature to add text? With some nice fonts.
I'd like to see an option not to automatically apply the wallpaper.
Great app. Works very well. Thanks for sharing!
Version 1.4 features a new option to save a blurred image without setting it as a wallpaper, as requested. Long press the checkmark button, and the image will be saved.
Also, I will not be adding extra sliders for saturation and/or other effects. It goes beyond the app's purpose.

Does the crash occur with any image or a specific one? If it is a specific image, try to send it to me so I can test myself. This is weird because I also have a Nexus 5 stock.
It is the stock yellow Kit Kat wallpaper I have in my download folder on internal memory..I have downloaded it somewhere before I got Nexus 5 and transfered it later on to N5 from my good old N4 ..Here is a link to my dropbox with all the stock wallpapers https://www.dropbox.com/sh/o97pbheqtt59u61/BAbFrkYkYa
Its no big deal , it will FC but also it will do what it should do, meaning all the adjustment and also setting up the wallpaper. It just FC's with that.
Anyway thanks for your interest. I also have Muzei app installed, maybe it has something to do with this. Crash report sent couple of times.
Thanks

Nice one Chris! Fovero
Tholotis' core was entirely rethought and reworked, and now uses a powerful algorithm called BackDrop™ which produces pixel-perfect wallpapers in order to make your device look gorgeous.
What does this offer that Blurone doesn't? Genuine question. Picture blurring has been around for a while.

BackDrop™, dimming, and much better design. That's what it offers. Oh, and no ads either.
Pixel perfect wallpapers... Are you saying the already existing method/s (prior to BackDrop) were not producing good pictures?
As @MattKneale previously said, picture blurring has been around for a while... And it seemed fine . Anyway, there is always room for improvement, I guess :good:.
Don't get me wrong, I am not attempting to bash your work in any way. It is awesome, keep up the good work

Another Excellent G3 Wallpaper site

Hi all. I just came across a website that has produced some very well made G3 wallpapers that really shows off this phone's screen. Unlike some of the other HD wallpaper websites I've been guided to, this is one that already has the wallpaper resized to fit our screen if you use the Google Photos app to save it as home screen wallpaper and not the default gallery app. Just tap on save as wallpaper (and save as lock screen wallpaper if that's what you want) and it's done. No need to try to crop, resize or position a certain part of the wallpaper onto the screen because the rest won't fit. I should add that I only use the static home screen feature, so those with multiple screens, this may not be as appealing to you. These are 1440x2560. Hope you enjoy!!

Use the Google Photos app to set it as home screen wallpaper. Don't use the default Gallery app because it will zoom and crop it. Also, I only use static home screen. If you have multiple home screens, then I don't know how well these will work. You might want to find some with a resolution higher than 1440x2560 if thats the case.

Download an icon pack. Then download ThemeX from the market. Then use ThemeX to pick out which icons you would like to use and download them to your sd card. Go the LG home screen, long press on the icon you want to edit and pick the icon that you saved to your sd card.

Man, this cropping is getting on my nerves. Does anyone know how to stop the wallpaper from cropping?

Don't use the Gallery app to set as wallpaper. Use the Photos app to set it as wallpaper. The Gallery makes you crop it. The Photo app allows you to save the entire image.
I am using the photos app (google) and it autocrops the pictures I try to set as background. Any suggestions?
Seems to me that a lot of these wallpapers aren't really QHD at all. Sure thats the size of the image, but they have clearly been upscaled, probably from 1080P or even 720P. Most when zoomed in to 100% are pretty jagged or blurry.
Finding REAL 1440P portrait wallpapers is proving to be pretty tough.

Pretty sure its ThemeX. Looked for ThemerX and doesn't exist. But the app works just how you explained it.

Yes, that's it. Didn't realize I put the "r" there. I was at work at the time. Glad you got it working though.
For all you users looking to avoid cropping issues, download Wallpapyrus from the Play Store. It sets your picture as your wallpaper without cropping.
Not at all.

It really isn't difficult at all, the problem is that people aren't aware of something called Wallbase. There you can find tons of wallpapers up to 4K resolution. It has a nice app to it as well. Totally free on Android Market.
Don't give two ****s about any wallpaper app, pack, or anything called something like "G3wallpapers.com"... On Wallbase you can find exactly what you are looking for and not some ****ty up-scaled wallpapers. Cheers.
Another Wallpapers Site !!
A lot of wallpapers here: http://www.droidviews.com/downloads/wallpapers/
If you want a scrollable wallpaper at the best res, you'll probably want 2880x2560. 1440x2560 gives just a static wallpaper that's not scrollable (unless you crop).
Thanks... Fantastic Site

I beg to differ, viewing at 100% clearly shows that most of the pictures sizes, even on Wallbase are the same basic image, just scaled to the size you download, the original source image is often just 1080P, even many of the 4ks are obvious upscales
