Would like to find some hi res wallpapers that fit the Galaxy-Nexus resolution, and not stretched wallpapers from older low res Android phones.
I really like the basic minimalistic designs, like a black carbon from the EVO 4G is my favorite, but it looks terrible on the hi res Nexus. Anyone have a link or wallpapers to share ?

Thanks, surprised there is not Sticky for wallpapers ? This phone needs special wallpapers over most Android phones due to one of the first phones with such a high resolution, the old wallpapers just don;t work on this phone.
google, deviantart, wincustomize, there are hundereds of wallpaper sites on the internet. and due to the resolution of the phone any computer WB will have an option for a size for the phone.
anything larger than 1200 in each size is fine for the GN.
personally i get almost all my wallpapers from deviant art and other wallpaper sites. and some here from the post your homescreen topics.
right now in my phone i have 85 wallpapers, maybe 10 of them i got here. rest were google and deviant art.
So after seeing demonstrations of Sense 4.0 at MWC, there wasn't much that I was jealous of when compared to stock ICS. However, I was impressed by the implementation of multitasking that HTC has put into the new version of sense.
I haven't seen a thread about this, so I wanted to ask...What are the chances of any brave devs out there working on porting over the sense 4.0 task-switcher to our beloved Galaxy Nexus?
Personally I would rather see a wp7 multitasking, I dislike the tilt on sense 4.0 screens
That's actually a good point. I'd take either. Right now I'm settling for an AOKP customization where the task switcher is horizontal, but the app previews remain the same size.

If you would be pleased by just getting the app previews smaller, that's just a simple xml edit in SystemUI.apk
EDIT: Here's a link on how to do it.

The previews still look pixelated though,
Need a higher quality image

They look pixelated because this is how it can show them quickly and not waste too much memory on it. Otherwise imagine 30 opened apps with high quality previews
Also, at our pcs they look more pixelated than in our phones.

It's not so much the size change that I'm looking for, it's that slick, smooth look and feel that WP7 and Sense 4.0 have for multitasking. Image preview quality doesn't concern me too much as I hopefully won't be looking at the images for long if I'm just quickly switching tasks.

thread is here : [MOD] Change ICS App Switcher to Windows Phone 7 Style
for nexus s only...(sorry i don't have galaxy nexus.. )
but i wrote guide for this mod : [HOWTO] Change ICS App Switcher to Windows Phone 7 Style
WP7 style is WebOS style and has been implemented in AOKP/CM9 Rome for a while. Swipe up/down to close. You can view more screens the traditional ICS way but no different except we have a transparent black vs solid blue, but that could be changed with a replacement image.
Nothing new here, fyi
The 3D effect of sense would be a welcome addition though but functionality wise we already have this, just not as pretty

I see most ROMs always trying to reduce they size. All well and good but why is it we don't see more on the other end of the spectrum. I don't mean full of crappy bloatware but lots of high rez wallpapers, high quality sounds, large elaborate themes and maybe a beta app they are working on.
That was my thought now the request. Might we see one or two big fat over weight monster ROMs with obscene amounts of useful features and other content. I mean we have 32gb of internal memory lets make use of it.
Please.
More content requires more time. That's why most dev are trying to implement standardized theme packages so work doesn't have to be duplicated.

For every person that wants tons of wallpapers and themes, there are a several who don't want it. So the way to make the most people happy is to not add tons of generally useless stuff.
Why can't you bring your own wallpapers and themes to do your ROM how you want it?

Same reason people throw money at artists and say "Wow me plz."
I have no skill making themes or even dressing myself well I have no sense of fashion or style.

hey guys.
I really like boot animations and having nice ones.
I've found a few on here that the concept is nice for (Blue Helix and Havoc from FreeGS3 thread) but they are very low res and don't look good in the phone.
I know how to make my own but all of my old boot animations are for lower resolution phones and wouldn't stretch out well.
what other similar resolution phones/tablets have boot animations that could be used for our phones and look HD?
any already available?
thanks.
I believe ROM tool box has a few.

here is one for the ATT variant its the BIOS Boot ani

Comparing the S3 with the S2 what features did the update came with?
Is the camera have some improvements like the S3 or its still the same?
Also what about Motion, lockscreen?
Sorry to ask. But I liked the phone and maybe in the future I can get one cheap

Well camera is same... Now we have S3 motion... Also there are Lockscreen shortcuts, not a lot of bloat, and phone runs very smooth...
