Wallpaper - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, i am looking for a sense live wallpaper for my CM7 wildfire, I found this on the play store, but wasn't working,
And I would also like to get an ICS live wallpaper of the screen size of wildfire, every ICS LWP i found was found out to be cropped when displayed
Please help me if you know any one.

Most live wallpapers on the Wildfire have two issues, which prevent regular use of most:
-They're slow and sap performance (due to the Wildfire not having a GPU)
-They either show up cropped, or not at all (due to the Wildfire having a low screen resolution)
However, if you are insistent on the use of them, look for live wallpapers that match the Wildfire's resolution, and, ideally, simple ones that aren't so processor-intensive.

Sense 2.1 Weather Animation

I've searched around but not been able to find anything relating to what i'm looking for. Basically I was wondering if it is possible to get custom wallpaper weather animations on sense 2.1 without changing the wallpaper for the rest of the manila tabs?
I've been using the BG4All cab which works well, but due to the hd wallpaper im using, it creates alot of lag in tabs such as the photo and contact tabs. So therefore it would be nice to be able to use the hd wallpaper with weather animations for the home screen, but to keep the plain black background for all the other tabs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Just to point out, ive tried one cab (the kimi-sae-ireba-sense2.1weatherwallpaper) and even though this allowed custom wallpaper weather animation on just the home tab, there were a few issues.
The time overlapped the text when sliding down on the home tab
Landscape did not work properly
The wallpaper was compressed and much more blurry
So basically just looking for a cab that allows high quality wallpaper on just the home tab while maintaining weather animations
Look what I found using search

Thanks for your reply.. even tho it was probably intended as an insult
I used the search function and found that too.. but it doesn't do what I asked for.
Id like to be able to use the high quality wallpaper of choice on just the home page with weather animation. But they only offer custom ready made wallpapers and weathermod also included in that post doesnt do what I asked either.

[Q] How to set HQ Wallpaper?

Just wondering if anyone can tell me how to set up a HQ Wallpaper ?
i've been searching n the forums and just found one thread somewhere but no good answer for it.
if i want to set a wallpaper from my gallery , the DHD crops the Photo/Picture and i get a part of my desired wallpaper as background (yeah even when the wallpaper has been resized to match the resolution on the dhd that damn thing still wants to crop -> very blurred , not even close to sharp picture)
tried wallpaper set and go from the android market -> failure
tried flikie from the market -> failure
is ist even possible to have good images as wallpapers (except for the included stock ones and live wallpapers) ?
any help would be appreciated
Make sure you original Image is 480x800
Go Market and get "Crop Wallpaper" App.
The App allows you to choose the image as "Wide" or "As Is in its resolution.
Cheers
Works Perfect thanks a lot

Anyone know goog tool to resize wallpapers to fit my Archos 101?
If selecting new pic from gallery, it goes blurred when set to wallpaper and most of picture is 'outside' of visible backround.

good wallpaper an archos gen 8 is a pain, the stock wallpaper system does indeed zoom your pics and looks blurred (slightly better on png than jpgs) , you can try over laying you own pics onto a larger canvas putting it sort of top right but i find this very hit and miss 2 apps can solve your problem but both have issues .
multipicture live wallpaper is one way and can give excellent results if set up correctly. You can have single picture for all home screens (works best if scrolling disabled) or a dif picture for each home screen which i find a bit slow.However the drawback is battery usage, and delay when coming out of heavy use app like browser.
The other one is crop wallpaper app which has centering issues on most launchers but works quite well on go launcher ex but has issues crashing quite often, at least on my 70 250gb ! i have tried them both with very impressive homescreen results but have gone back to stock wallpaper in favour of stabilty and superior speed
good luck

[Q] InsertCoin CM7 v48 - Wallpaper doesn't scroll, flat widgets

Has anyone noticed that when you try to set a wallpaper from your gallery, the adjustable rectangle is as if rotated 90 deg. The area you choose is exactly the size of one screen, so the wallpaper doesn't scroll when you move from one screen to another.
Is it a bug or is it like this because the transition between screens 1 and 7 wouldn't look good.
Also, I've noticed that the sense 3 widgets aren't properly scaled. They're a little bit flat. Not much... but It's annoying when I look at my girlfriend's photo and see that it's too wide. I can't show her that!
Other than that that rom is epic! Great job, baad!
Yeah I noticed that too! It's annoying because I got loads of cool wallpapers from the Galaxy S. Though I suppose maybe it's due to the new Sense 3.0 Rosie scroll "carousel" as opposed to the 2.1 one which works differently, no? I also used RCMix 2.0 Test 3 and it was the same...
same issues here, but hey, its a nightly build..
I think it is meant to not scroll the wallpaper anymore in Sense3 homescreen. I heard this issue in other forums too. Its like on the HTC Sensation. There is also no scrolling. Because of the carousel scrolling.

Live Wallpapers

Live wallpapers on Sense don't seem to work as well as they do on stock ICS or even the SGSIII. Whenever i swipe to change the homescreen the wallpaper pauses until the homescreen animation is done. This does not happen on SGSIII or a Galaxy Nexus. Also the included Phase Beam live wallpaper(ICS default wallpaper) does not seem to work, whats up with that?
its a fault with sense
some updates seem to have fixed it, depends on your carrier
or try a different launcher, they don't have the issue on HOX
Currently using free Galactic Core Live Wallpaper (search at google play) looks good on HOX.
