What is the best resolution for nexus 6 using the stock rom and launcher?
2560x1440. That's why the phone is 1440p.

The height of then screen is 2560. The width is 1440. This is fine if you use a launcher that doesn't scroll home screen wallpapers or doesn't go into landscape mode. However if your launcher does do either of those things, you'll find you'll be displaying the image at a lower resolution to accommodate that.
Personally I get all my wallpapers from https://interfacelift.com/wallpaper/downloads/date/wide_16:9
...in 16:9 aspect ratio and a resolution of 5120x2880. This gives me the ability to accommodate landscape mode and scrolling home screen wallpapers without having to lose any image quality

the screen for the N1 isn't squared but when selecting a picture as wallpaper...you can't select the whole wallpaper, only a square ratio of it.
anyway to select the whole wallpaper to make it look like in the gallery?
The wallpaper on a Nexus is 960x800. A LOT wider than the screen width of 400. Because the wallpaper shifts as you scroll from screen to screen.
So you need to get wallpaper in 960x800 size. (width x height)
ok thanks.

I haven't test it, but I think if the wallpaper if under 960x800, then it should let you select all of it, if not, then sorry, I don't know.
put a pic of my nephew as the wallpaper, it asked me to crop it and i did. But when the picture got applied it was zoomed in and was not what i had selected.
I have zeam launcher installed and tried it with the default launcher as well and same results. From what i can see when cropping the wallpaper you have to do it so it stretches to all 5 pages and scrolls, but still don't get why it zooms in. I installed zeam because i only want one page and one static image 800x400 but the zoom is really annoying making everything larger then it should be.
Anyone have a fix?
When you set it as the wallpaper usually you have to crop it and choose the size.

The phone is 960 pixels tall, so rather than 800 x 400, resize the image (if you have the original source) to something like 1440 x 960. (It may need to be wider if you have more than 5 screens, and if you don't want wallpaper to pan as you move between homescreens obviously you want 540 x 960, or, of course, just crop it.) The key thing, I think, is to get the height of the image to 960 pixels.
I used to have problems with stock changing my custom wallpaper to the default one when I had photos that were larger than that selected as wallpaper, but since resizing them I've not had that problem.
is there an app or some sort of program where it'll allow me to convert some of my fav wallpapers which are desktop size fit for the GT7.7?
This size should be fine for the Tab. When selecting a wallpaper from Gallery the wallpaper is cropped and resized. The vertical resolution in Portrait mode is higher than most desktops' anyway.

what do you mean 'this'?
Hi everyone,
I have a wallpaper at 1600x1280 which I can't get it to fit properly on my screen. I have tried various method but it ended up magnified on my screen. So the question is what should be the correct resolution if I want the wallpaper to fit correctly in portrait without scrolling in 200dpi?

No matter at which dpi you set the phone, your resolution stays the same eq. 1280x800
2048x1280
I'm using Nova Launcher currenty ,and every time I want to set a background, it asks me to resize the image first, making my homescreen rather blury.
Does anyone know the right size for the XL?
