Ive got this beautiful wallpaper here that I want to use with MattedBlue setup I am working on but I cant get over the blurry the picture quality looks on my phone. Is it possible to improve the quality for picture? Any knowledge anybody can drop on me would be much appreciated!
use wallpaper set and save from the market to set wallpapers at full res instead of having to crop
Thanks Success. I actually do not have to crop this picture at all... the dimensions are perfect so WSS didnt make much difference. So I guess there is no way to improve image quality?

It's because that wallpaper has a gradient which is made up of more colors than the 65k the EVO screen can handle..
Yes, WSS is better than the N1 3D Gallery app and better than the Sense Gallery app, but there's still a hardware limitation, unfortunately.
I've compared some of my wallpapers on my EVO to one of my friend's PalmPre and another friend's Epic 4G and I was blown away.
Some people say they can't see the difference.
I work with graphics all day so I notice all the banding and lack of colors and everything else.
Nonetheless, the EVO screen is still excellent, color capacity notwithstanding.

Well that sucks But thanks sooo much for the response typeadam. I learned something today lol. Off I go to continue my quest of finding a perfect wallpaper to go with my MattedBlues theme!
NOTE: I was able to find a higher resolution picture of the image i posted above that looks much better on our Evos. Anyone who is interested, PM me and I'll get the wallpaper to ya
if i decide to use a wallpaper that isnt a live one what size/resoultion should it be to fit perfectly?
i know there are apps out there on the marketplace for downloading wallpapers but if i wanted to make my own id like them to fit perfect
Thanks

Height 800 pixels, Width 960 pixels, DPI 218
This is the actual dpi of the screen so you will get best 1:1 reproduction of the image.
The width being double is for the scrolling effect that Android has.
If Touchwiz does not do this, I haven't used it enough to know. Then make the Width 480 pixels.

Thanks for, not many good ones there though.
Anyone know where can good wallpapers for our Nexus, the default ones are poor.
Could anyone tell me the wallpaper size for the Galaxy Nexus? And maybe post up some good ones/links to good sites for HD wallpapers?
Cheers
I'm looking for a plain black one in case anyone can point me to one already made. I heard a black wall paper helps conserve battery power.
I'm just trying some wallpapers at the moment, and it's as annoying as trying to find one that fits well for a honeycomb tablet :/
And yeh with SAMOLED screens, darker uses less battery.

It seems like the existing wall papers have a size of 960 x 853 pixels.
I created this plain black wallpaper.

I don't know why the stock Wallpapers were released at that Res as they have to be upscaled to fit. Wallpapers for Native Res will be 1440x1280 if you want nice crisp HD.

Crop to 1440x1280 for your phone.

If I want a basic plain all-black wall paper, what format should I save it as? I know jpg works, but is there maybe a format that uses up less resources?

Plain black png will be considerably smaller I'd imagine.
I made a couple of fractal based wallpapers at 1440 x 1280, both using a black background. The second one is fairly dark, for those who want to conserve their battery without going completely black.

I don't think thats correct. It's a 720 screen so the native resolution would be 1280x720 (widescreen)

The wallpaper stretches to cover all 5 homescreens.

The resolution on one screen would be 720x1280. Across five screens it's 1440x1280.
The same as the old standard being 480x800 vs 960x800.
Hey guys,
I did some searching and couldn't seem to find a "Phase Beam" Live Wallpaper STILL image. I like the design of it, but don't care for the live wallpaper aspect. Any way I can get a HD image from the live wallpaper? Thanks in advance.
Sent from my GNexus
don't think theres any way to do it. closest thing would be a launcher that removes the statusbar and is totally blank and someone just takes a screen shot, but then you'd also need a custom launcher since you'd need to set no scrolling to get it to work.
Found one:

and i'll just shut up now lol.
only downside to that is that it's a little small for the Gnex. our wallpapers need to be minimum smallest size 1200. thats 960. so you may notice some loss in quality. or possibly not. the advantage of the high DPI sometimes makes low resolution images still look good on the screen.
Shouldn't our wallpapers be 1280x720 or 1200x720 at least?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
i've seen many people say that if you want the best quality you need 1200+ on all sides.
possibly something to do with how android crops it. I've yet to try anything below 1200.
keep in mind, that though the actual on screen resolution is 720 wide by 1280 high, the real wallpaper resolution is 1480 wide by 1280 high because of how android handles wallpapers. so anything smaller will be lower quality.

I did not know that. Thanks for clarifying though.
Edit: Wait, did you get those mixed up? Shouldn't it be 1480x1280? Not 1280x1480.
You see, I only have one homescreen. So, I don't know if that matters. There obviously isn't any wallpaper scrolling.

yeah probably.
height should be 1280 and width should be 1480.
even if you have one homescreen, android still wants to crop a square wallpaper. thats been the issue since the G1. so if you want a portrait image, you need to use a third party app.
now, if your using a custom launcher then thats another story, as some when you disable wallpaper scrolling it gives you a crop for a single screen.
Hey guys, what's the correct dimensions for a wallpaper to fit on the Galaxy Nexus.
I know the screen is 720x1200 but I tried that resolution and the wallpaper won't fit the whole screen, thanks.
