[Q] Lockscreen Wallpaper - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Rooted phone running Stock (Sprint) rom.
I've resized many images for my lockscreen perfectly, but every time I set one, they get horribly decompressed.
Is there a workaround for this?
Attached is what I'm talking about.

Just making sure, is your image 320x455?
And in your screenshot, should we be looking at the artifacting in the background? Or something else? Because it looks like that's present in the whole image, in the lock bar and the notification bar too.. just a result of jpeg compression.

Yes, size 320x455.
I've attached the original for comparison. A lot of the red around the gun is distorted, instead of the smooth quality that it should be.
The problem is, or I think is, the phone compresses images no matter the size for lockscreen wallpapers. When I set the same image to my Home screen background, it appears perfectly fine.
So, would there be a workaround for the lockscreen wallpapers?

Anyone?

Not familiar with this but look for someone named impaler, he is into themeing and such. If he doesn't know he may be able to point you in the right direction.

Will do, thanks MrSpradlen.

No problem Vvh

Btw if you get it working can you send me a download for that, it looks good.

You might want to try an app called 'CropWallpaper'. I use it for my wallpaper, but you may be able to use it with your lockscreen. I'm on CM6 right now, so I can't check how it will work with sense, sorry.

I think you need to size it for the actual screen size of the Hero. On the home screens it is larger because it has to scroll through several other screens.

No worries, and thanks for the suggestion. Sadly it didn't work. But it's handy for normal wallpapers.

That didn't work out well either. The exact size of the screen is 320x480, 320x455 is when you take into account for the notification bar.
Sadly, there's no current fix for this ( that I've found ), if anyone else reading this thread comes up with something, please post.
Thanks to everyone who has commented thus far and to theimpaler747 for trying very hard to help. I really appreciate it guys.

Credit to jonnybueno for all of the edited .png files in here, I took 90 images from it. Sorry for the period of time this wasn't up here, I was drunk when I redid the thread.
I have received a few requests in the past for a black notification bar from some members, and figured that if a few people want it, well then more do as well request thread)

Sorry it has taken me so long to make an official update for this.
About various other apps/widgets being skinned, well basically you can take the apk that it is in the theme and put it on the root of your sdcard and do this in the recovery console
Code:
mount system
mount sdcard
ls /system/app (only if you need to find the exact name, skip if you don't need the exact name)
cp /sdcard/exactappnamecapsandall.apk /system/app/exactappnamecapsandall.apk
awesome! keep up the great work

you are actually having a massive fail (but its ok). there are 3 files edited. one .png, one .xml, one .dex.
literally all this is is a black notification with the clock and date and the text for the notifications white.

Oh I see...thanks.
I would prefer black bars too, but the problem is that app icons are designed for white background, so some of them can't even be seen when the bar is black.

if there is a theme with icons you like i can pull them from there and drop them into it so that the icons are visible.

I personally never cared about the app icons on main screen; I only look at the tray icon and notification bar colors and icons.
The icons I'm talking about are notification ones like the one for Swift, which is just a black flying bird. This would be a black bird on black bar background, making it invisible.

actually i think you could probably use that one method to do this also. where you make the apk match the theme. here wouldnt you just have to look for the png and invert the color? or no? i really dont know just says what I's thinks

i could but then if some of the apps or paid then it would be an issue of warez and i would rather not get into that. also it would need to be done every time the app is updated.
true. too much work and trouble. well then, guys if you want a simple black bar, be ready to sacrifice some notifications. none of mine are black, except weatherbug, but thank god you can change that one to white its an option in the app!

just download it, put it on the ROOT of your sdcard(meaning NOT in any folder) then go into recovery and just flash it like you would flash a rom.
basically its exactly the same as flashing a rom.
That's wat I did but it said bad file and then it aborted the instalation

hmmm. which one are you trying, also what did it say , did it tell you it was a bad file (i had that one with a rom, and redownloading it fixed it) or did it say something about about verification or not being signed properly?
I was flashing it normally and it said the blackbar(bad) instalation aborted I was using cm 4.11.1 but I will redownload and try again
i think it might be the signing thing.. does the file name have anything to do with it? cause i see for 4.0.4 it says signed but 4.1.11.1 does not. might be that?
crap i gotta go back to work. be back later!

nawh man, (or else i probably would've heard something from the 15 or 16 that have got it so far).
i think that means that the download got corrupted, try to redownload it and flash it again, if that doesn't work i will resign it and upload it again.
ok i tried redownloading but its not working with 4.1.11.1 then i tried to download the other one to see if it was a problem with my conection it downloaded fine. i think i might need a mirror

[lockscreen] photoshop

I dont have photoshop, but i need to have a see through or opaque picture to use as my lockscreen background. can anyone help me, or even make a quick one? with a grey background if its opaque.
BUMP! come on people someone must have photoshop, this would only take 5 minutes.
doesn't the one from the other thread work?....

..... Then have a play with DroidExplorer?... apparently it can do the ADB stuff for you......
EDIT..... Droid Explorer - 0.8.6.0 [06/19/2010] - Conan O'Brian Edition
Why someone with photoshop. It's just as doable with Gimp, a totally free image editor.
i dont have an image editor, slash i didnt know that. And its not the actual lock screen or anything i need.
i downloaded lockbot and you can use your own image as the background, so if i got a transparent one then i would have a transparent lockscreen..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=707599
i modified the file from Cronos 1.7.1 so i'm not sure it will work for villainrom...
if you do want to try it ... do a nandroid or bart backup before you PUSH the file onto /system/framework folder
i think i tried that one before, but i'm not sure, i'll give it a shot.
it says verification failed?
If your looking to set an image as a lockscreen background its not as easy as having a transparent image. Android does not treat it as if it is transparent.
Hoping someone can work out a fix soon though.
oh i see. well thats helpful thanks. Also when trying to flash all these zips that people are putting together for me, when i try to flash them i get an error "verification failed"!!

There was a Vanilla ROM with transparent locksscreen. I think it even was SuperHero and I remember it coz people did not like transparent lockscreens. It made screen look messy. Also some other vanilla ROMs have semi transparent lockscreens - it shows only wallppaper, not all icons and widgets - which I found very cool, especially if you like live wallpapers. I want to make it work on sense ROMs, don't know how so

Banding on images/backgrounds with gradients?

So, maybe its just me, but i notice that my nook, on any rom, does not seem to do well when displaying images that have subtle gradients. i have attached an image that i wanted to use for my background - it looks great on screen, but like crap on the nook. Anyone else notice this? I love the screen in general, but looking at that image makes it feel like i am using an 8-bit screen...

I've found it can display images fine, but that when setting it as the wallpaper it messes up the gradient and also tends to make the image blurry, as though its changing the resolution (despite the image being 1200x1024 or whatever its suppose to be(possibly 1024x1200)
Color Banding with live wallpapers enabled
Hijacking this thread.
Is anyone else noticing color banding on NC with live wallpapers enabled?
For example, take a look at your desktop with the two settings:
1. Livewallpaper + analog clock widget
2. Regular wallpaper + analog clock widget
The clock displays horrible banding in test case #1. I tested this on 7.0.3. stable and several nightlies since. I've see a few posts on this in the other device forums but most of them seem to be issues with the supported bit depth of the actual screen itself or wallpapers in general so I wasn't sure if they were applicable.
Is this an Android issue or an issue with the rom? Something else?

I recommend Wallpaper Set and Save, free in the Market, to fix that problem.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.android.wallpapersetandsave
It's a funny old app, made for Cupcake I think and hasn't been changed since then. The UI is small and kind of odd looking. Changing the default settings won't stick on my Nook Color. It really wants your wallpaper to be in SDCard/wallpapers. So it barely works, but it does make wallpaper look better.
Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried that app before but it looked like it was only for regular wallpapers (where I'm not really seeing the banding)? That or I'm dense and overlooking something.
Also where are the stock wallpapers normally stored on cm7 install?

You know, there were a lot of people who noticed banding on the HD2 roms, and it did seem to vary between various roms. I never really noticed it (perhaps I used the good roms), so didn't follow it much, and couldn't say if there was a fix. But, there should be many threads on it in the HD2 android section.
I've also noticed pretty severe banding in gradients for both jpeg and png images.

As said, use something besides Gallery and it'll look fine. I use Wall Switcher and have some 20 jpg's in a directory and it switches 'em every 15 minutes, but there are lots of options.
It's not the NC, the ROM... it's the app you're using to set the background.
Just to clarify, the entire desktop starts exhibiting banding (icons, Widgets) and not just the desktop background. Almost as if the os is switching color depth. Can you guys reproduce this on your cm7 installs? Maybe I need to post screens or something.
This ONLY happens when I select a livewallpaper. Regular wallpapers dont affect the widgets and desktop icons like this. If its a matter or how im setting the live wallpaper, How do you set a live wallpaper using gallery or any other apps? What directory are they stored? Thanks.

Ah. Well that would make more sense. I always thought the display was 24-bit because people are always comparing it to the Ipad screen. The clock does look distractingly bad though haha...maybe I'm just anal.
Just added some screenshots using the Grass Live Wallpaper versus one of the stock CM7 ones. For posterity.
Go to the app store and download "Large Image Viewer" it will solve all your problems. The nook color screen is an IPS display, the same as the ipad and much better than other andriod tablets. Large Image Viewer is a very fast hi res viewer and no, I am in no way affiated with them.

Dalingrin's OC kernels are 16-bit, stock is 24-bit. It's about that simple.
I campaigned for a way to switch live, and at one point he considered just such a kernel mod but I don't think it ever went anywhere.

I'm noticing the same thing. The screen seems to handle gradients in regular wallpapers fine, but gradients in Live Wallpapers look horrible. Like someone stated it's like it's changing bit-depth. I'm on a stock, totally virgin Nook Color. Does anyone know how to work around this? I'm building Live Wallpapers and what looks fine on other devices looks terrible on the Color.

HOW TO apply a 1024x600 hd wallpaper

this will blow your mind on how crystal clear the wallpapers can be when we use native 1024x600 resolution. this is not some blown up 480x800 blurry wallpapers we always see to acheve wallpaper scrolling wich I always have off cus it lags my scrolling
1. download multipicture live wallpaper
2. download a highdef wallpaper here wowallpapers.com/show_wallpaper/world/england_wallpaper_01_1024x600.jpg
3. go to live wallpapers and select multipicture live wallpaper
4. go to common settings - picture source - single picture and select the high def pic
5. then select crop resize ratio and select Show Entire Picture
6. go back and under drawer settings select transition type and select None.
7.go back and under picture folder selection uncheck double tap to change picture
8.then go to picture change interval select Never
enjoy the most unreal wallpaper on your nook. if u have adw select landscape oreintation only . because potrait kills the wallpaper
Or just check the long-standing steps posted in the OP of a stickied thread in this very forum There is a quick & dirty solution there, but also my steps to get a pixel-perfect wallpaper.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=889951
PS: 1024x600 is too small. You need a bigger image than that if you want to have it move in the background a keep an un-stretched image. We use the same size as the Galaxy, which is 1200x1024. That seems to give me the best results.
that method involves cropping the picture. my method SHOWS THE WHOLE 1024x600 picture (no croping)and its a tottaly diffrent way of the one that's posted on there. and I also mentioned I dont like having the wallpaper scroll at a cost of performance. if u wanna do it your way by all means I'm just sharing my way of doing things. cheers

Well you only need to crop the image if it's not the right size already, which is true of any method of setting a wallpaper, including yours. Not to mention that your method breaks in 50% of supported orientations Hardly "tottaly diffrent..."
And I have no idea what performance hit you are seeing from having a scrolling wallpaper. I've had no issues at all on Android 2.1 or 2.3, both at stock or with an OC'ed kernal. I mean, you're of course welcome to use whatever settings you want, I just dont know what performance hit you're talking about.
Either way, this just seems like a bunch of extra steps to accomplish the same thing that has been posted previously, just with less functionality. I dont mean to sound malicious; I just dont understand what advantage you're offering people.

You are a genius cowballz69!!! Not only did this solve my problem and keep me from having to crop, resize, etc, etc, it also allowed me to have random wallpapers, different size wallpapers, etc. And they all scale excellently and look wonderful on my Nook Color! I was even able to mess around with the program settings and get an accpetable workaround for the wallpapers in portrait mode. (I have the mirror effect above and below the image, looks nice.) Thanks again!
Is this 1-1 pixel mapping when done either way?
I haven't even tried putting a wallpaper on other than the defaults yet, too busy exploring other NC features.
I tried every single method out there, this was the only one that really came out nice and crisp. Thanks man.
After reading up, i also tried ES File Explorer's Wallpaper function and got very good results, not as good as your method, but i would prefer to not run a live wallpaper if possible and got good results. I hope a surefire solution to this wallpaper situation shows up for the nook one day. I force the nook to landscape btw.

I just tried Wall Switch with 1024x600 wallpapers and it still insists on cropping and otherwise adjusting the pics.
edit:
On the subject of the thread, I'm kind of surprised that this hasn't been fixed yet. Usually you guys jump on wallpapers and themes right after root.
I don't understand why the settings aren't built in that will allow us to just go choose a 1024x600 image, apply it in the correct orientation, and not let it move no matter how the screen is tilted. I don't want my wallpaper to scroll or change at all. That seems like it should be easy to do.

[Q] Overlapping text and icons in status bar solutions?

Hey guys. So one problem I've been trying to find a solution for is I like allot of information in my status bar but I have so much in it I keep running into the issue of the text and icons overlapping. For example when I use Wanams setting to center the clock allot of things overlap or when I try to add more and nothings overlapping it whatever is on the right side just runs off the screen. Is there a way to create maybe a marquee style where I could add as much I wanted and just have anything that runs off the screen in the status bar constantly scroll across? Currently running Firekat v6.
First possible solution listed here by another member, didn't work though, fishing for more ideas...
