Is there a way to have a different wallpaper for each home screen?
Apparently, the Dell Streak can: http://www.streaksmart.com/2010/06/...n.html?cid=6a00d83451c9ec69e20133f1b42196970b
I'd really like to know this too as my wallpaper ends up stretching across my home screens.
The only program I have found is this http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-creativecore-wallpaperplus-jmit.aspx
But I haven't tried it out yet.

I am attempting to accomplish a theme much like what the Dell Streak guys are doing here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=899879).
While our screens are not 5", like the Streaks, we can get roughly the same viewing size with the "LCD Density Changer" app. The app just shrinks everything, so it isn't to bad with a younger set of eyes.
If this theme was set up on our phones, then the wallpaper and Icon placement would be distorted as it were cycled through orientations.
So my question/request for an app is something to lock your home screen orientation into landscape. ADW launcher is capable of this!! However, I purchased Launcher Pro Plus, and I prefer this launcher.
All the apps out currently only lock portrait (by turning off auto-rotation). And the only Google searches I can find are a few pointing to an app that fools the phone into thinking the slide out keyboard is open. That app only works on a device that has a physical pull out keyboard.
Thanks in advance

When I go to change my wallpaper for the main screen or lock screen, its off. Like its supposed to go wide for scrolling but it just gives me a square to select with which makes the image distorted once saved. Is there a fix? Ive searched but havnt found anything. Help please. Include links if needed.
Thanks
I had the same issue yesterday and found several answers via google...
For the lock screen the best fix seems to be using a photo editor to resize the photo to 980x800 (or I think some multiple thereof), then upload it to your phone and select as wallpaper.
Wallpaper Wizardrii and Wall Switch both work for me for the main screen wallpaper. Both free and available from android market.
Does anyone know what the exact resolution size is for just ONE home screen?
I know the default is 1440x1280, but that is just for all of the home screens.
I have three home screens so I want to try something out, thanks!
EDIT: Already figured it out, took a screenshot, opened in Photoshop and got the sizes.
One home screen = W720 x H1280.
Hi,
I came from the One M8 only yesterday. I had to use image2wallpaper to make my wallpaper fit but olt only showed it in a small square rather than using the whole screen.
Tried to apply my wallpaper using the OP3 settings and it only shows part of the image as it's spread across multiple displays even though I'm only using be screen.
What app can I use or how can I have my wallpaper show on the full screen rather than just part or in a square and not using the full screen as I'd like?
Try this one, it's my go-to for these kinds of things! If you don't like that, then maybe this one has what you need!
I resized a jpg to 1920x1920 and it fit fine. It also was able to "slide" as you swiped from screen to screen.
I made some wallpapers from anime characters as jpeg 1080x2340 and set them as my Home Screen.
My problems is when unlocking up my phone, maybe 1 out of 20 times the wallpaper does not show only the theme wallpaper, If i lock my phone and unlock my wallpaper is instantly back.
I have tried different theme`s and wallpapers and rebooted a number to times but the problem remains.
Is anybody else have this problem.
edit: also sometimes the wallpapers even screenshots from the phone look magnified 4x when set as wallpaper and then i have to load a new theme and then load the image again to get them to show at the correct size.
Thanks
John.
edit: there is a free windows program called "Image Cropper" you can as it says crop an area out of a larger photo, The aspect ratio for RNP8 is 6 x 13 then set the save resolution to 1080x2340, use the highest quality image you can find, There is also one for android called CropImage, select custom and set to 6x13 aspect.

When you select the option to set a wallpaper from the home screen there are various icons.
Perhaps you have to de-select the double arrow in the wallpaper preview window? When it's on it expands the wallpaper or something.

Looks like with the Theme app, you can save your current theme including modification, So i have saved my theme with my wallpaper and them re-loaded it, Hopefully this might have fixed my problem but only time will tell.
EDIT: 5 day`s and my problem is still fixed
EDIT 2: My problems is back
EDIT 3: I have used the "ChaoMe Theme Editor" on the Play Store to edit a theme and add my own wallpaper, It seems to be working so far,
