Does anybody know where I can find an app with REAL HD wallpapers?
It seems as if all the ones that say HD wallpapers, lie !
I see the wallpapers looking good, but when I set them as my wallpaper on my G2 the wallpapers looks so uglyy.
Like if they where to small, with little blocks and all yuck.
Kinda like if you where to zoom-in too much on a picture.
Get me? Lol.
Please help, I'm forced to use "already installed" cm wallpapers.
Don't get me wrong they are bad-ass but I want more wallpapers...
Thanks

The screen resolution on g2 is 480x800 so if you want the wallpaper to fit nicely look for the same pixles you. Can use google image to find them.

Or I can just resize a bigger picture, ah excellent excellent thanks.
But instead of doing that mission, is there any apps for only that sized wallpapers?

I am not sure ,ive never used any app for my wallpaper i find it easier to just find them on my pc and sync them to my phone.
BTW if you resize a picture with a very different pixle ratio in terms of (HxW) its not going to look nice .

Use 960x800.

Why use an app for wallpaper? Its getting ridiculous, thanks to Apple, people think they need an app to get anything done.
Just search for 960x800 wallpaper. There are plenty right here on XDA.

anyone know a good website for downloading wallpapers for the DINC ???

As far as websites Idk.

i use an app called coveroid... has the best hd backgrounds, IMO. the other way i get good hd images is to simply do a google image search for hd backgrounds, or something more specific to meet your tastes, you'd be surprised with what you can find that way.
Wassup everybody,
Im here looking to see if anybody knows if there is any app that has HD wallpapers that fit well on the G2 withouth having it look a little weird or too close to the wallpaper picture. I know there is a lot of HD wallpaper apps in the market but, the thing is it all says the same but end up having wallpapers with high resolution or something that once you apply it as your background the wallpaper looks a little bit different but in a bad way like all... too close or not perfect idk how to explain it. But what I'm looking for is a wallpaper app that shows the wall papers full hd with the right fit and resolution just like the ones that are put in the Cyanogen mod wallpapers and that comes with the phone. Or if there's anyway I can edit the large pictures myself, meaning size and etc, please let me know thanks...

I use HD wallpapers. Free on Market. Has a good selection.
Zedge is a good wallpaper/ringtone/notification app. Not really sure how HD the wallpapers are, but they look great on my G2.

Why do you even need to do that? You can crop just about any photo in your gallery for use as wallpaper within Android.
Alternately, you can use most any photo manipulation software on your desktop computer to scale/crop the image to 960x800, then copy it to your phone. If you don't have any such software, GIMP is a good, free, open-source one.

When setting a wallpaper, are you touching and dragging the orange lines to make the box bigger?

If you want the wallpaper to fit perfectly you need an image that is 480x800. Then the entire image will fit the screen.

Doesn't seem to be that many good 720x1280 wallpapers out there. Does anyone have any links to good wallapers? I tried the Zedge app, and it seems to have a lot but not many good ones.
Where do you guys get your good ones?

No croping needed no over pixels

+++ This site is sick. Awesome selection of wallpapers to fix any resolution. Thanks for posting this!
You can also do an image search in Google restricted to 720 x 1280 and get a lot of results. Lots of screenshots but also some nice wallpapers. Here's two I liked after a quick search...
If anyone comes across Galaxy Note 2 boot screen paper please post.
It makes for good looking lock screen wallpaper

I have had a few of them for a long time. They are not really iphone 5 wallpapers but more so just cropped to fit the iphone 5.

What I usually do is look for wallpapers that are BIGGER then the note 2 resolutions, then I use photoshop to crop/transform them in to exactly the right resolution for the note 2.
If I do it like this, the note 2 doesn't have to resize and the wallpaper will remain crisp.
Touchwiz doesnt support scrolling wallpapers anymore ( :crying: ) so that resolution would be 720x1280
If you use e.g. Apex Launcher, you can set a scrolling wallpaper. The resolution for that is 1440x1280.
To me it looks like the stock 'wallpaper setter' can do cropping just fine, but any form of resizing makes the imagequality worse.
I got some examples on my dropbox here

Hello guys I'm sorry I looked all through here but I didn't think any of the ones I saw in the app section were the kind I was looking for could someone point me in the right direction?
Also I can't seem to find the darthstalker ROM?
Sorry again for my n00bness.
Thanks for your time!

I can't help with the messaging app, but all roms are in the dev sections.
gosms app is what I'm using till i find something better. It's 3rd party, but free & customizable if you've got the patience for a little trial & error. I'm still hoping to find a transparent stock mod soon myself, but i just started looking recently.

I'm not aware of any modded stock messaging app that is transparent (but there's a lot I don't know!), but could you help me understand what you'd want?
You say you want a "transparent background" messaging app. Is that one where, when it is open, you see the home screen underneath the text bubbles? Or just the wallpaper? Or would it see any previously opened app? I don't know enough about modding apks to do anything about it, but if you could clarify what you're looking for, it'd help give people more solid ideas on what to develop.
I will tell my team about the transparent background and I'll see what we can do . amiblindyet me and misty I will update you in the morning to see what we can do!!

So you want the background and bubbles to be transparent... I would assume that you want the background 100% transparent and the bubbles something like 70-80% transparent.
I'm ignorant on this, but I've heard that you can decompile an apk and replace the assets in /res folder. I'm not sure if it's possible with these items, but that would be the place to start.

And yes background 100% (in case I ever go back to a live wallpaper) & since I have a black area & white area on the wallpaper(both horizontal) maybe some holo blue for text so my text won't vanish when I scroll up & down. kinda like tvshow faves trans widget text color. Ive noticed that blue looks good w/my wallpaper. Bubbles maybe 90%. trans. I'd better quit while I'm ahead. Thank you for your time, consideration & efforts.
