Hi, Just installed MIUI and i have a strange issue never had before with CM or Sense.
When I select a picture to use as wallpaper and decide to crop to fit, it uses a scaled version of the picture, therefore the quality is reeeeeally bad!
Changing wallpaper like everyday, this is getting annoying....
Any ideas how to fix this?
(just remembering i never had this problem with sense before)
Thanks

Hi, i have a trouble. I want to set my wallpaper (so i download it on PC and it is png file) And when i copy it into the phone and than i set as a wallpaper it is fuzzy.
And ROM does not matter. Any ideas how to fix it? (BTW LauncherPro Plus)
nobody knows?
what is the resolution of the wallpaper? 1024 x 768 wallpapers tend to get a bit fuzzy as the screen of your i9000 is 800 px high
no, it is 2560x1900
I don't have any issues with cropping or seeing what you are mentioning.
Have a try with the App 'Crop Wallpaper'. If it works using this method you will then know the problem may be down to an issue with your Gallery App.
The Gallery App uses a lot of compression.
Also, have you tried making a wallpaper from a photo taken with the SGS's camera?
If it works you will then know it is something to do with either the source files or the the Gallery App not liking the source files.
I know what you mean, could be some kind of crappy compression going on but sometimes i'm not sure if it's just the screen that isn't sharp enough to my liking. Banding in dark gradients is also an issue that really bugs me, if there is a solution for that I'd love to hear it.

As I mentioned above, try Crop Wallpaper.
Hello all,
I was just wondering one thing, as this happened to me whenever I tried an AOSP rom on both my SGS i9000, Captivate, and now my Desire HD.
When I have the stock rom on, or a sense rom, when I choose a picture as my wallpaper, or a picture to set in a picture frame widget, the box that pops up to crop the picture to fit your screen is a rectangle. A horizontal rectangle for wallpapers, which is correct, and a vertical rectangle for the picture frame widget, which is also just right.
In every version of CM7 I've used, or other AOSP-like roms on other phones, the crop boxes for setting wallpapers and picture frame widgets are Square instead of rectangles. I've asked in the CM7 thread, and someone replied to me saying they don't have that problem.
- Why does it occur?
- Could I be doing something wrong? I always use / flash the "Full Wipe" zip after factory resetting before I flash a rom to remove everything.
In short: Crop Boxes in CM7 are Square instead of Rectangle in Sense. Rectangles are what I want, as they make the pictures set crisp and perfect, instead of horrible and stretch / contorted.
Thanks again.
Anyone?
I know not everyone is experiencing this, what could be wrong?
Hey, I've found a really nice wallpaper than I want to set, but everytime I try to set it, it keeps asking me to do this weird crop thing, and it always looks zoomed in, I can't just set it as Wallpaper like it is? Spent a while trying to figure it out but no success! Any help? Thanks
its normal for ics. Exactly the same problem happens in honeycomb.
you can use wallpaper wizardri (something like that)
Just stretch the crop boundary to the full image size. Make sure you have the proper resolution to start with for the best quality.
Your WP needs to be 1440x1280.
Hello,
I just got my G3 a few days ago. Overall I love it. However this morning I tried out a couple wallpapers from Zedge and Background HD.. after changing my wallpaper I noticed that everytime I exit an app, any app, the wallpaper in the background tears up for a sec or so, then it goes back to normal.. Not really a big deal but still a little annoying since it happens EVERY time after I exit an app.. I don't remember this happening when I first got my phone.. anyone else noticing the same? If so is there a solution? Seems like something a simple patch would do.
Thank you in advance!

I did notice the same behavior with wallpapers applied by Zedge. Then I decided to try to set up the wallpaper by the default way and it worked, the flaw is gone.
Try it.
It seems that the issue returned here. I don't know how to solve, appears to be random.
I've got same problem after just few hours of using brand new LG G3. I've set one wallpaper using Backgrounds HD and it was blinking, tearing apart, and changing ratio. So I switched back to one of stock wallpapers, the one I liked and it is doing same thing. So I tried to change whole skin but it changed nothing and it really annoys me. :/

I think some of these wallpaper apps need to be updated to support the QuadHD resolution. If you download the wallpaper to a computer, then copy it to the phone and install it normally (not using an app) it should work fine. I've used lots of different images as wallpaper without any issues.
I will try to do it this way and I think it will work. The problem is (in my opinion) that switching back to one of OS stock wallpapers doesn't solve the issue. The only moment phone wallpaper acts normal is when I reset theme. It applies only to default theme wallpaper. As I have my LG for only a day or so, I might consider factory reset :/
Edit:
Ok, so I stopped Backgrounds HD service, cleared its data and now all works fine. So the problem was in this particular applications service. Now I know, setting wallpapers from application is not a good idea.
does anyone else have the issue where you set your own image as the lockscreen wallpaper and it makes it look weird? i added a screenshot to show you. it doesn't happen on the stock lg wallpapers just my own pictures even the ones i take from the phones camera. i have only had this for two days now so im not really sure how to fix it
What is weird on image?
i downloaded the Oneplus one camera and gallery apk and it turns out the gallery apk was causing the image to be noticeably squished together and moved to the side. uninstalled and now it works great
