Wallpapers [QVGA]

This thread has been abandoned.. Sorry. I've moved onto other things these days.​

Good Idea Zalith
The walls are very nice, but don't you think 320 X 320 for QVGA will appear narrower than they really are ?

Well... There's a perfect example of non-constructive criticism...
Edit: Just to expand on this a bit; as I said in my first post, if you don't see something you like, then don't download it... If you want something different, let me know and I'll try help out. I don't see how it's that fair to register on a forum just to say "not that good"... And then even spell it incorrectly.

Do you know the meaning of your name in french ? see here http://dictionary.reverso.net/english-french/bull****
looks you started your way here on the left foot
Anyway some politeness could not harm you, especially towards a member who is contributing...

A few more images I did last night... The last four are from Greg Martin's public gallery.

I have a request.. Could you make this wallpaper fixed for my Elf,WM 6.5.x? The wallpaper moved upward which make it not aligned and overlapped with the taskbar.. How to fix it? (If I'm in the wrong thread,could you please direct me to the link..) Thank you..

Nice
Thanks. I downloaded 9 of them.

I take it you're using the 'old style' Today screen, and not M2D or the Titanium panel...? Unfortunately, that is a problem with the newer WM 6.5 beta builds, it started happening in build 23*** I think. I'm still looking for a solution to that..

How to use Titanium panel? Will it solve the problem?

You can switch by going to Start > Settings > Personal > Home, then switch to the 'Items' tab and select 'Windows Default'. That will enable the Titanium / CHome Panel.
On the left is the 'old style' home screen (doesn't have very much on it, but you can choose a bunch of different components for it; Tasks, Messaging, etc.), on the right is the newer 'Titanium' or 'CHome Panel':
Note: If you have any questions more detailed than this, please do a search on XDA-Dev and you'll see a lot more information..

I've already done that before.. But still the same..

The third post has been updated with 4 new images. If they're not quite what you're looking for, maybe a more detailed description of what you want would help.
Anyway, that was a welcome distraction from work; today is going by way too slowly for my liking...

Wow, far out. The top row from the Walllpapers 2 post speak to me, man! Cheers. Keep them coming.

Excellent Wallpapers...Thanks for Sharing..

The third post now has a couple anime wallpapers as well, I really wasn't sure which ones to choose... Most of them have really light backgrounds, so they don't really work too well with white text.

wallpaper looks like crap?

I'm not sure if i'm doing it wrong or what, but i've downloaded a couple wallpapers from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2229778
However when i go to set them as my wallpaper and use the cropping tool they look like crap on the home screen... Am i doing something wrong?

Do you maximize the crop area?

I sure did, when i don't maximize it, it looks even worse!

Help Xperia Z1s Status Bar Turns Grey in Settings/Dialer

No idea what has caused this... but when I enter settings it goes from Black (nova launcher) or transparent (stock xperia) to a dull gray.
Thanks in advance.

Not a dark grey, but a lighter dull flat grey on top and bottom.
Does it change color when you enter settings from the stock launcher?

This is really stressing me out. Whether I messed something up or it was like that all along... it looks horrible.
Is there a way to change android settings menus (as well as the notification bar/bottom button bar) to black and get rid of this horrible white/grey theme that doesn't involve an unlocked bootloader? I'm hoping to find an easy fix for this once root is available.

Same thing on my phone, if you use nova launcher to change the bar color it works except in sonys custom settings, which probably means the color of the bars there is handled different hence why nova launcher can't change it. Would probably need something like a custom rom/root or maybe 4.4 to do this.

This is stock and normal. You're like the third person I've seen complaining about this today? I don't understand why it's a problem.

Uh yeah.. It's supposed to do that.

Honestly it's not a problem aside from the fact that it's unsightly. I was afraid messed something up.
So even without nova it would still turn grey?

Yep, this is controlled by the Dialer and Settings APKs - you won't be able to change it without modifying those APKs or a custom ROM/app which supports forcing status bar colors. I'm not too involved in that stuff, though, so that's about as much of a jumping off point as I can give you.
To be honest, I didn't even notice it until people started getting excited about. Different folks...

Maybe i was so excited about everything else that i didn't notice that. I wonder if it was intentional to signify importance or caution or if it was simply overlooked.

I think it's simply a case of the status bar/button panel (whatever it's called) blending the default black color with the white-ish background of the app. I assume it's just the application of translucency and alpha blending. Change the bgcolor of those apps, probably goes away. Maybe there are some other white-background apps to prove that theory.

Messaging does it too, fyi

Good catch. I replaced stock Messaging with 8sms to fix group threading. 8sms doesn't have the gray bars, even with the light theme, but stock Messaging definitely does.

Nexus 6 Amoled Display Artifacts [THREAD CLOSED]

I've had my Nexus for only 2 days and I've noticed some artifacts on my display. I've included screenshots using Screen Test app which show some horizontal lines on my display and also vertical lines but these are more vivid on the device itself they don't seem to show so much in the screenshots. These lines are visible regardless of what I use as wallpaper. Anyone else having this issue or is this normal?? Will this clear up over time or do I need to send it in for an RMA??

LMFAO....
Ok, so because you are obviously clueless about the distinction between hardware and software, any visual artifact caused by the AMOLED display **CAN NOT** appear on a screenshot.
Those lines you are seeing are due to the DITHERING algorithm used to generate the gradient that you are displaying. Gradient = the progression from white to black through multiple degrees of gray. This is a function of SOFTWARE, not hardware. RMA will do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for this.

I understand there are different gradients, this is different, what I'm seeing is lines gradient or not but they are obvious even when not using the screen test app, they are visible everywhere at anytime doesn't matter what background or wallpaper I'm using. There are vertical lines also that look like they are baked into the screen.

Well then send it for an RMA? i dont see what your purpose of this post was, to ask if its normal to have baked in horizontal lines? its not.
i dont see any lines on my display, so i would sent it back for a replacement. i guess i was one of the lucky few with a device with no issues, the only issue i found was that i did not get any lollipop with the device, see here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/help/missing-lollipop-nexus-6-t3046877

Hey man thanks for your reply, my question is really aiming at anyone else with the same issue. I didn't think it was right, I guess I was just hoping that it would resolve itself somehow but obviously not. As for lollipop, yeah my device came with it, why what did you get on yours, KitKat???

So if its happening on all wallpapers / screens and you're convinced its not dithering, could you get a pure whiff background and upload both the screenshot and a photograph with a camera of the issue please? All I see is the dithering so far

even though you did start a thread about it, you do not get a free lollipop when you buy a nexus 6.

I definitely cant see anything on the screenshot. As for the camera photos, its tricky because they are a little pixelated, probably due to the contrast.

I'll see if I can get a better camera shot. Thanks for taking the time and having a look. Overall the display is beautiful, just concerned about the vertical lines I see on the display when using my phone

I think it might be a good idea to go to an optometrist to make sure that the lines aren't caused by your eyes.

Your going to have these vertical lines had them on all amoled screens. But if your seeing them on say like your home screen and other places I'd get a replacement. But if you only see them say with just a white or gray screen I wouldn't worry about it. If you want you can try this app out on Google play... Amoled burn in fixer.. Good day

Thanks for your comments guys, I believe I do have an issue with my display therefore will proceed with a DOA replacement. Cheers

100% black wallpaper has a gradient at the top

Does anyone else have this problem it only shows on a black wallpaper and can be hidden by placing a black object over it. Its almost like the wallpapers not fully black but ive tried multiple black images and a factory reset and its always there im sure its a fault just wanted to point it out and see if anyone else sees it on there device.

I've seen it as well... But not just on this phone it has been on multiple Samsung devices that I have owned as I typically run a solid black background.

yeah this one sucks .. only solution is by using live wallpaper or set samsung theme wallpaper.

Yes, I already posted this query. ( Repost).Bottom line, it occurs on home screen only at top or screen. and is due to the resolution of the image used. Try a proper black wallpaper designed for the note 8 home screen and all will be good . Using black wallpaper from note 3 or 4 won't work .

interesting i did actually search before posting im not new around here i know how things work i never found your thread, i put tags in my post so that its easy for people searching this issue to find it, sometimes its just a case of getting the right keywords. Anyways like i said i tried multiple black images even made my own in CS5 resolution was 1440 x 2960 IIRC only thing i havent tried yet is an indexed color but i will ive had lods of sammy amoled phones and this is the first time ive seen this happen.

Yes had this one all my sammy phones
The 'FIX' i use is to download any app that will let you set an image and apply it as a Live Wallpaper.
for example
download this one and set your custom wallpaper with it and apply the live wallpaper.
This way you can use any true black wallpaper you like rather than sticking to samsung theme stores wallpapers
it should have gone now
