Wallpaper question - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone knows if it is possible to have the wallpaper static like the ones in an IPhone or a Samsung device for example?
Thanks guys

With the stock launcher? I'm pretty sure any 1080x1920 wallpaper will be static and won't "scroll"
The correct resolution for "scrolling" wallpapers is 2160x1920

[Q] How do I; Wallpaper sizing

I have a pic in my gallery that I want as my home scree. The only way I know to do this is Apps>Gallery>Image(of choice)>Menu>More>Set as>Wallpaper>...It's at this point I get lost. I want the entire pic to be a wallpaper but when your in wallpaper you get a box that will only stretch so far. How do I get the whole pic as my wallpaper?
I tryed resizing the image to 480 X 800 but the best it will allow is 480 x 618. Even with this, I still need to use the wallpaper sizer.
How do I fix this?

wallpapers for our phone need to be sized at 960x800
Use Dodol Wallpaper Maker

I normally just download flikkie hd wallpapers and then just move the wallpaper I want into the flikkie folder.

I have been going to this site for awhile and downloading wallpapers for my PC and knew they had walls for Apple devices. So I checked and they have Windows Phone 7 section at a resolution of 480x800 which is the same at the Inspire.
The site is: Interfacelift.com
http://interfacelift.com/
There are pages and pages and pages of user submitted wallpapers. All you need to do is click on the drop down next to the wallpaper you want and select 480x800. Then click "Download."
However there are drawbacks. Currently there are only 108 wallpapers with this size available. If you have an account, you can bulk download any resolution from all the years they have wallpapers for.
Check them out!
Thanks for the heads up... Also if you hit netbook theres a 800x480 tab with like 98 pages.. so theres alot more than 108 wallpapers
Thanks for the link.. But I thought our resolution was 960x800
Love interfacelift. been using them for a few years now.
960x800 sounds like the qhd resolution.

yes, that is the resolution of the image you need to use as your background. If you notice when you scroll between home screens, the image moves slightly, so the background image has to be larger than 480x800.
480x800 is the resolution of your 'screen'.
Use fullscreen 1280X1024. When you choose a wallpaper you should be able to crop. It will just crop the sides off a bit. There are some wallpapers hosted there that are 960X800, but not alot. Have fun sifting through the site!
also here is a pretty nice site with 960x800 wallpapers
Android Wallpapers
I use Flikie Wallpapers HD from the market. Great app

800 x 1280 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.....

[Q] Is there a launcher that handles wallpaper in portrait correctly?

Is there a launcher that handles wallpaper in portrait correctly?
I tried both Nova and Apex, both does not display the portrait wallpaper correctly.
I read the thread about the Asus MyFrame "fix" which is not ideal because it seem to take up some precious resource.
Appreciate the help, thanks!

is really depends on the resolution of your image? if it's not in 16:10 then some cropping will be done
