How can i set my homescreen wallpaper the same res (size) as my lock screen?
what i mean is, if i set wallpaper as lock screen the whole picture shows, if i set the same pic as homescreen wallpaper its cropped or zoomed in with part of the picture missing.
is there anyway i can have it so both look like the lock scren?
thanks

Why do people call lock screen pictures wallpaper? Wallpaper is like for your desk top or start screen what Windows Phone has is lock screen pictures not wallpapers.
Because it's shorter?
Because the wallpaper functionality in wp7 is limited to the lock screen wallpaper. The pictures hub though have backgrounds, which makes sense because the background is, well positioned at the back, topped with typography interface and tiles, hence background. If it was wallpaper then you should be able to see most of the picture.
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.

Hay guys.
So i have been looking around for a few years now and for a solution to tasker image crop issue...
Ok so i solved this problem with a few settings.
1. Nova Launcher prime:
[1. Disable the wallpaper scroll option.
[2. 1ste select a wallpaper as your wallpaper and the select nova wallpaper.
[3. crop the image to your full screen with the second button on the left bottom screen. (Portrait or landscape)
2. If all the above is done, then your "set wallpaper" option in tasker will sett the wallpaper to crop with full screen no resizing!!
Now you can resize any picture you want to your screen res with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.nsystem.resize_lite.
This you have your perfect fitted image and tasker sets it like that (No Resizing!)

I tried this, and while it does work, it doesn't allow you to scroll wallpaper anymore (since you've disabled it). If you're using Tasker to set wallpaper, there is a good chance you're getting it to randomize it as well. For someone like myself, this means having a mix of both landscape and portrait images; if you disable wallpaper scrolling, then the landscape images suffer.
This really just needs to be fixed in Nova Launcher. I've up-voted a request for this feature, as well as posted in the Nova Launcher thread here:

Hopefully it gets fixed properly!
I could finally create a fantastic wallpaper using Tapet with vignette effect... so I used the app to set it as background... and it looks as great... I saved to the Gallery to set as lock screen wallpaper and in the gallery it looks as great... I set it as lock screen wallpaper and the ugly circles of image compression appear on the wallpaper... it doesnt appear with I use Tapet to set the wallpaper... only appears when I use the system to set the wallpaper... does anyone know if this can be fixed?

Since when I got the S6 I noticed this problem !
First time you set the picture there is no problem and the image is fine. At this point the system saves a copy in your history of wallpapers, If you set your wallpaper using this history the quality will get very bad.
Instead you should try re-selecting and re-cropping the picture even if the picture is already there start all over...
