So I know the phone is 1080p, which means 1920x1080. But since the phone is portrait that turns into 1080x1920, right?
But that's good if I want a wallpaper for just 1 home screen and no scrolling. But if I have 2 home screens and want scrolling, do I need a 2160x1920 wallpaper?
But then if I have three, does that mean I need 3241x1920?
Or am I just going too far? But 1920x1080 wallpapers in landscape will just zoom in won't they?

Yes, yes, no, yes, yes.
2160x1920 is the size of the stock wallpapers. GEL will adjust the scrolling based on him many home screens you have.

This wallpaper is the correct resolution, but what's causing the gap below notification bar? That's Nova launcher.

Also, each launcher can call for a different wallpaper size. 2160x1920 is what the stock launcher calls for. Does Nova call for the same size?

When I used Nova, I believe it actually stated what size it was looking for when setting the wallpaper.

I have this wallpaper that I found somewhere:

I want it to be my wallpaper just like it looks, but when I set it the phone forces me to crop it and I wind up with this:
How can I get the full image as a background so that its not zoomed in or cropped?
I was wondering the same thing ... I seems that you can't unless you put your wallpaper in the same destination the default ones are located which will make it like a stock one ....
Waiting for more experienced opinion ...
Hey man. I know what you mean it can be annoying. The reason why it asks you to crop is because of your phone's resolution or whatever, it can only show so much. What you could try is "PicSPEED Wallpapers" from the market. Download it. Then when you set a wallpaper (from your gallery) a new option to custom crop the iage will appear and you can freely manipulate what is shown as the wallapaper

no that's not correct....
I have the stock GB wallpapers and stil have to crop them when set as wallpapers...
Most wallpapers apps are crap low quality stuff...Plus tons of crap adds...
It asks you to crop because it slides the image over a little while changing home screens (for a static wallpaper). I don't believe there is a setting in the stock launcher to change that. What you generally want is a square, 800px tall and 800px wide, with the image you want in the middle. Then you enlarge the crop to the entire image, and voila.
I use "wallpaper set and save"
On market sets wallpaper without quality lose

Is there anything out there?

It's centered in a way. It's not aligned dynamically by weight of what's presented on screen. The text on the left of the weather icon is right-aligned and the info on the right of the icon is left-aligned, if that makes sense. I assume if the weather actually read out to be 52 Fahrenheit and there was more text on the right, it'd look a lot more aligned even though nothing changed in terms of alignment.

I noticed that on my device the wallpaper is static when scrolling left or right through the stock launcher.
Unfortunately i don't remember if this was true on 4.4 or it changed with 4.4.2. Does anyone have an idea on how to enable the old scrolling effect?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
It seems to be dependent on what app you use when selecting set picture as... If you use photos from Google+ then you get a static, non-scrolling background. If you use the gallery app it scrolls fine.
Didn't know that.

What do you mean exactly? If the wallpaper is 1920x1080, I cant understand how it could scroll.

use 1080 1920 for static
Sorry, man, I can never remember that width goes first. As the kind members have indicated above, the wallpaper must be 1080 wide by 1920 high. (Thanks guys)
No matter what wallpaper I select for my P900 I get a blank area in the bottom part of the screen. This occurs with Nova Launcher and TouchWiz. Does anybody have any ideas? Thanks

You can verify this problem by connecting. To TV via HDMI adapter or screen mirroring . If the display is fine on TV, the problem may be from LCD. Try to reconnect LCD cable to see if it fixes the problem
Did you try a different wallpaper? (Not a different image, a different app). Like for instance the wallpaper module from Quickpic? Or a live wallpaper?
Live wallpapers seem to be fine. I tried several 1920x1200 jpg files but they all have the same problem in portrait.

I see your problem and it's normal. Picture is best fit in landscape position, you can not force it fit in portrait without distortion.
That's why you have blank space as your tablet adjust picture to fit the screen when you rotate position.
It's the same like your 4X6 picture taken in portrait mode, used as wall paper. You will see blank space in landscape mode as the picture can not fit to the entire screen.

Well, there's your problem right there. The screen resolution for this device is 2560x1600. You're missing 660x400 pixels.
I just checked with my PC the size of the jpg file I'm using as wallpaper in the attached screenshot & it's 4128x3096 so the blank space issue doesn't seem to be related to the size of the file.

On further checking this fault is present with all stock wallpapers on my tablet apart from the live wallpapers which are fine.
Sent from my SM-P900 using Tapatalk
Problem solved. With TouchWiz launcher you need to adjust the cropping of the wallpaper and it fills the screen in landscape and portrait. With Nova Launcher there is no crop setting but the way round it is to choose the wallpaper when you are already in portrait mode.

here's one I just made. it's a crop of some 4x5 slide film I took some years back.

Hey,
Just got my s8 as everyone has and had a question about wallpaper. Thought someone could chime in here if it works the same for them. It might be a nougat thing because I'm new to that also. So I have a specific home wallpaper and a seperate lockscreen wallpaper. When I turn my screen on, I see my home screen wallpaper clearly. I swipe for my pin pad and I see the lockscreen wallpaper as a shadow behind the pin pad. Once I enter the pin, I see the lockscreen wallpaper clearly for like a second and then my home screen. Is that the way it is supposed to work?
Thanks.

On mine I get the lockscreen first, until I unlock and then it goes to homescreen after unlock, unless I open with fingerprint, here it goes from blank straight to homescreen.
