[Q] Looking For A Pure Black Wallpaper? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913625
Do we have one specifically engineered for the GN?

Try taking a pic covering the camera. That's what I have always done to have a solid black background.

ummm....black wallpapers are black.
OLED screens dont light up black pixels hence the "amazing" battery life using this.
ANY black wallpaper will work
and dont expect to see any gains in battery life....especially 2 hours more.

its easy
downloaded from the market, not wallpaper. This gives the black background for your nexus

Just Google, black.png. It doesn't matter what size it is.
FWIW, Apex Launcher IIRC has an option for no wallpaper, i.e. black, in the settings.

So it does. It's really black too, much darker than a jpeg and a little darker than a png.

no wallpaper in the market

I got one

"Colors" in Marketplace.

heh, it's quite nice, thank you
@ZenorGR Excellent! Its my lock wallpaper since last night....
Np, the logo is a bit low quality found on google images. If you find a higher resolution one let me know so I can port it.
How about this?
An original photograph, edified.
NOsamoled, but wallpaper xD

This one does not have samoled logo or anything but it sure looks amazing on samoled screen You have to try it.

Why dont u guys download the Zedge app from market. Its a free app and links to Zedge.net.
It has thousands of high quality Wallpapers, lots of Notification tones and Ringtones.
Its a cool app, i use it to find new wallpapers all the time.
You can even search and within specific categories if you want e.g Automobiles, Babes, Landscapes, Abstract etc etc.
The coloured marbles one above is on there too.

High-res custom icon collections?

Is anyone aware of any high-res custom icon collections becoming available for the SGN? I've used the excellent Droidicon pack for a long time, but its icon sets seem to be fixed-res for 840x400 screens and so are way too small to use for the SGN's high-res screen. I've looked around the Market but haven't come up with any hits. Thanks!
I'll be watching this. I really don't like the new colorful/cartoony icons they are using in ICS. A smiley messages icon? Really? Is he waving at me? And that camera looks like it's from the 80s.
I am waiting for a nice pack for my ICS phone!
keeping an eye on this thread.
would be awesome for some high res icons
Try the icons from here:

ThaPHLASH has been making high quality Android icon packs since the dawn of time. I've always purchased his icon packs and they work really well with this 720p display. DOwnload his app (ThaIcon Ultimate) and take a look at them. He's a very good friend of mine and very talented at what he does.

White Option?

Does anyone know if the white option will be available on launch day for the device?
I talked to a salesperson on chat and they stated it's possible.
Anyone confirm or deny this?
Just not a fan of the gray. If it was black then sure... just not big on gray.
Thanks!

THanks for the excellent quality pictures. The ""black" is really more of a pewter, which is a lot different than I had in mind.
He didn't show a picture of "black" that is the Titanium grey option offered by AT&T. There is no Black model to my knowledge.
I have the white and scuffs do show up more from my case . The grey seems nicer and would hide better.

Screen a disappointment

When I view light images, like the list of threads in tapatalk, the bottom of the screen has a different tint than the top. This isn't my first amoled device, and I know that whites aren't usually as good as an lcd, but this seems really bad to me. It's much more noticeable in low light when the screen isn't as bright. I don't have a way of taking a picture now, maybe I can take one tomorrow.
Not sure what I want to do, but maybe I'll wait a little while and then do a warranty exchange to get one from a different batch compared to this one.

I have owned almost every high end phone out there and this phones screen still impresses me every single time I turn it on
You can sort of see the difference in color on the bottom of the screen compared to the top.

Switch it out with at&t... this screen is flawless. Anything less is a defect.
I got a new one. It's much better, plus my bluetooth works better

Amoled theme emui 5.x???

Anyone up for making a high contrast AMOLED theme, one which makes use of the battery saving feature of the screen. At the moment I use kasatmata icons and a black minimal AMOLED wallpaper and Google keyboard with black settings, which I feel saves me battery.
However when I pull down the notifications tab or go to the settings menu I get dazzled by the light lol

I don't think it would make a big difference with the P10 as the P10 does not use amoled panels. The P10 uses the IPS-NEO LCD capacitive touchscreen which on its own I believe does not kill battery as a true amoled screen would.
