So I'm using ADWLauncher EX and at first I didn't use wallpaper scrolling. Now when I switch it back on, I can't make a wallpaper in the gallery which can be used as a scrolling wallpaper.
It doesn't work in the default launcher either. The gallery only allows me to make a portrait wallpaper, not the landscape wallpaper necessary for scrolling.
I've cleared the data for the gallery, but I still can't select a landscape wallpaper.
how to set 800 X 1280 wallpaper properly so that the entire wallpaper is displayed and not some blurred, zoomed in part of the wallpaper.
P.S: iam using ADW launcher and the wallpaper scrolling is switched off.
To have the entire wallpaper displayed without zooming in you need a wallpaper with 1280×800 pixels (hight×width) not 800×1280

the screen resolution is always specified in W X H format and not in HxW format. so my wallpaper resolution is correct and i don't have problem when using wall switch app.
This isn't q&a section.

Sorry mate my bad I got it backwards
Do you have wallpaper scrolling enabled?
To use an 800x1280 wallpaper, you need to disable wallpaper scrolling.
To use wallpaper scrolling you need to have a wider wallpaper since it needs where to scroll. The perfect (native) size for a scrolling wallpaper on Note would be 1600x1280.
edit: nevermind, I missed the part where you said scrolling was switched off. How stupid of me
edit2: just tried switching off wallpaper scrolling and picking a correct-size wallpaper in portrait mode. Didn't work aswell (I also use ADW launcher). When choosing via QuickPic wallpaper, it doesn't even allow me to choose non-scrolling format. When choosing from gallery or using QuickPic and choosing "set as" -> "wallpaper", it allows me to choose the whole wallpaper but afterwards it is still zoomed in as if I had chosen it as a scrolling wallpaper. I don't really care about it, since I like scrolling wallpaper, but just saying I have the same problem. I'm on CheckROM v5 with Abyss v3.6
I use QuickPic to see my wallpapers without any loss in resolution. One thing I noticed about ADW is that if you're using Multipicture Live Wallpaper with it, the 800x1200 wallpapers are not cropped accurately, even when using QuickPic. Strangely, the cropping is fine once I change the launcher to TouchWiz or LauncherPro.
try to set wallpaper with twlauncher and then change to adw or other launcher.....
Unable to set wallpaper without cropping a portrait-ready-made-wallpaper, it's annoying because i made the wallpaper myself, in the settings (in this case Trebucher launcher) i made sure i deselected scrolling wallpaper, wallpaper is 720x1280 and if it's cropped it's made smaller and doesn't fit the screen like it should, are they any apps that fix that? i found an app the other day but i uninstalled it since the icon sucked and wanted to get rid of it.
Other than only using 1 screen with the default launcher or another launcher like Nova, is there any way to turn off wallpaper scrolling? Or is there an option I'm not seeing that lets me crop a wallpaper for portrait only?
With Nova, there is an option to disable wallpaper scrolling in the settings under desktop. Not sure about the stock launcher, Nova was the first thing I installed.

So changing walpapers has never been so frustrating for me before.. I tried the traditional method of gallery find picture I want and set as wallpaper.. That doesn't work..
I figured out that to set home wallpaper you need to go through settings etc to do it..
but where on earth is there an option to set a lock screen wallpaper??
If you're using a different launcher such as Nova then go back to miui launcher and get again
