help with setting a 1280x800 wallpaper

I downloaded a 1280x800 wallpaper on Google images but when I go into gallery and press set picture as the picture is way to big and I can't fit the box around the picture..

Download Wallpaper Slideshow from Market. Use a file explorer program like ES or Root Explorer and make a folder called wallpapers. Move your wallpapers into that new folder and use the program to point into that folder. That should fix your problem.

i can't find the app I searched for wallpaper gallery on the market but couldn't find it

Grab a copy of wallpaper wizard from the market. I had the same frustrations as you before I found it but now life is good

I edited my post. Follow those instructions.

MultiPicture Livewallpaper is a really good option to control your images and set full wallpapers. Its free on the market.

I found out about this recently

I found those programs to slow down the xoom a lot. Scrolling through homescreens goes jerky etc.
In the end I wrote my own livewallpaper that just sets a completely static image as the background at full resolution without any cropping. When you turn in portrait it uses the center third of the image.
I think the issue with the other apps is on every frame update they appear to reload the image so it is acutally doing full screen animation but with the same image all the time. I made my wallpaper only reload the image when the orientation changes.
It's pretty buggy at the moment as if you load a massive image it will force close due to lack of memory. Also the wallpaper picture doesn't reload until you change orientation. If I get time to sort these bugs I'll put it up on the market.

[solved]Lockscreen wallpaper from theme as Home wallpaper

Hello all,
Is it possible to use the lockscreen wallpaper from the Sony themes as normal wallpaper for the home screens?
I can't seem to find an option.
Cheers,

I know this. But when you choose a theme, the lockscreen has a different picture to the cosmic flow like wallpaper that appears on the home screens.
What I want to do is use the lockscreen wallpaper as the home screen wallpaper, when I look at pre-installed wallpapers I cannot see any of the lockscreen wallpapers there. I only see the wallpaper when looking at the themes, and then it only gets applied to the lockscreen.
Cheers,
Lunar.

Ah see what you mean.
Lock screen wallpapers here,
you'll have to save them and use as seperate homescreen wallpaper.

Click on them for larger size, it also names them so you might find even better quality ones.

Wallpaper Scroll?

Does anyone know whats up with the wallpaper scrolling? I noticed the sense 5 launcher doesn't support it, but i cant even get nova to scroll either, its very strange... Any one else?
EDIT: Landscape wallpaper from the play store does work but its pretty wonky... Wallpaper keeps scrolling even when theres no more home screens. Does anyone know why third party launchers wont scroll either? Ive tried many.

get landscape wallpaper from google play

Wallpaper scrolling works on nova.
Go to nova settings -> Desktop -> Wallpaper Scrolling and choose 'Force'.

Ya i got it to work, the first time i enabled the force scroll i think i cropped it in landscape with nova wallpaper which doesnt allow scrolling. Thanks.

Google Edition Lockscreen Wallpaper

Hi... anyone running one of the variants of the Google Edition can help me with my lockscreen wallpaper... I can only change my lockscreen and regular wallpaper together... meaning I can't have two different images. I tried both stock launcher and Nova launcher but still nothing. Every combination... still when I change one, the other changes.
Maybe there is no way to do it.
Thanks.

There's no way to do this in stock Android. However, you can get a lock screen replacement app that lets you change the lock screen wallpaper.

Kinda of a workaround... using Multi Wallpaper Live app. Let's use set a different wallpaper on the lockscreen vs home. Just can't use live wallpapers.

Alternate launcher and HD wallpaper : Tip

Hi
Just a tip a wanna share.
I use Holo Launcher HD instead of TWiz Magazine i removed.
But impossible to have a beautiful wallpaper with great HD definition. Crop tool blurs my wallpapers everytime.
So, to have something great to fit this great screen resolution, try this tip.
Download Simple Image Wallpaper from Google Play :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ridgelineapps.simpleimagewallpaper&hl=fr
Define a 2560*3200 image, but only the middle will be displayed !(center your 2560*1600 image in the middle of your 2560*1600 image). Wallpaper will not scroll.
Find Simple Image Wallpaper under Animated Wallpaper (Long press on home screen)
Define your wallpaper.
You've got hi res wallpaper now !
Here's one of my favourite sample :

I really enjoy google launcher, they integrated google home into a swipe screen, nice feature.

I found the app- image to wallpaper- works well. They also have -image to wall paper live- for using a gif file as wallpaper. Both are free.

I've just been going to 4walled.cc and specifying a 2560x1600 or greater resolution and then cropping whatever I want to my liking.

I've been using Chainfire's free 500 Firepaper app which downloads high-resolution images from the 500px web site. Lots of options for type of picture to display and how often they're updated. The photos always look great & focused.

Cool tips thanks!

Nova still beating here !
