I've tried searching but can't seem to find what I'm looking for!
Has anyone managed to crack how to get backgrounds to look OK on the new Manila when in landscape mode? the closest i've seen so far is the blue max theme, but I don't want a blue theme or an analog clock!
Does anyone know how to get landscape backgrounds/wallpaper working properly?
failing that, does anyone know which .manila files I would need to edit?
hi,
i hope maxycy will give us instructions how to manage it by ourselves!!!
i hope mun_rus will find out a good solution in order to have our own background in all tabs too.
ciao

Well, I did manage to do that somehow..
Basically, you'll need a 800X480 or 1330X800 pixels wallpaper..
Doing so, you'll have wallapapers that support landscape mode, but not all would work!
Have a look at mine
Nice, How did you do that
here you have the new manila background took form the new manila 3.0
can u put some screen shot
can u put some screen shot for this cab

I tried installling it over Dutty V2 with Max blue theme, and my manilla got FUBAR. It got stuck and tabs disappeared.
Guess this only replaces original v3 manilla?
edit: just took a look at the .cab. Are you sure it installs everything? Looking at the setup xml, it doesn't do anything with the "BACKGR~1.000" file..?
Right, I think people are mis-understanding here!
I am after (and this thread is about) changing the background picture ON MANILA V3 (as in Dutty Xtreme and other ROMs) Manili V3 supports landscape mode, but currently the background picture doesn't stretch or re-orientate itself to accomodate landscape images. Instead it appears to centre the image around the middle of the portrait screen, and remain locked in that position in landscape mode.
This thread is NOT about making Manila V2 (as in Stock HD) LOOK like Manili V3
Blessed HD, I've tried doing it that way, but unfortunately, given the images I use for my backgrounds, the resulting images are significantly worse quality than normal Otherwise, this method does work and does result in a full-screen-width image in landscape.

By using a 800X480 or 1330X800 pixels wallpaper!
As for the clock & buttom bar;
Clock: I used Max's Analog Clock for Dutty's ROM
Buttom Bars: 12aon Iphone Renaissance Icons / Text theme Icons
Transparant Buttom bar + transparant slider

Exactly !
& that's why I'm using this method until someone figures it out
Another solution here is to use pattern wallpapers, not the ones with a spacific picture in the middle.. & try to maintain its graphic quality within the 800X480 pixels..
There should be a trick to it.. but I don't know how........

Yeah, I'm curious to find out whether there's a specific Manila file for portrait and landscape or whether it's just the one file scaled/stretched for both...
If there's sparate files, then that could be used to good avantage!
Don't have the time to filter through each and every .manila file to find them though!
The way I got to understand it, is that there is 2 files for landscape and 2 for portrait.
Check my post here as well, might clear things up.

Does anyone know where I can find the image files used for the backgrounds in the HERO ROMS?
I have looked all over the place but can't find anything. I'm currently running one of the PURE BLACK HERO ROMS but it only has plain coloured wallpapers installed on it.
Help appreciated.
Sorry for the files I wanted within fatal1tys HERO ROM.

These?
Also: google?
Thank you I've been looking for these.
Can anyone please share how can we use these wallpapers usig full quality and resolution? Each time I try to change the wallpaper it asks me to crop the image and then it has really bad quality. Thank you.
You can resize the cropping box so it uses the whole wallpaper.
Does anyone know -where- on the -ROM- the Wallpaper Gallery is located? I'd like to pull some images from my ROM to use as a lock screen image, since you're arbitrarily not allowed to use resources from the Wallpaper Gallery on the lock screen..
let's see. i hope i can explain this clearly...
i have a static wallpaper i want to use on my evo. currently using king's 2.1 kingdom rom. on most kingdom roms the wallpaper doesnt scroll behind your icons and widgets. it remains still and doesnt scroll side to side as you move from screen to screen. well i have a wallpaper i want to use BUT it makes me crop it and i can only use a small part of it.
i was hoping someone could edit this wallpaper for me (or teach me how, but i dont have photoshop or any editing software on my mac). i want to be able to use the whole thing as my wallpaper. i assume this is sorta easy for a lot of you guys, ive just never really needed to edit a wallpaper before and some direction here would be GREATLY appreciated!
the wallpaper im trying to use is attached.
resized
one is the scrollable version and the other is the one page only unscrollable version, both resized o fit the evo screen

ahhhhh YES!!! thats EXACTLY what i was trying to do! thank you!
If you go into the Android market there's an app called EVO
3D wallpapers. This one is in there and its cropped to the original size. Maybe you can try that first? If no luck maybe you can edit the pic in MS Paint and recrop the pic to 480x800 which is the EVO 4G's native rez. Good luck!
Yes Marty, I built a time machine out of a DeLorean.
can someone resize this to fit the evo 4G screen without scrolling?

I think I know what you're trying to say because I'm having the same problem...
It used to be that when you cropped up an image for the wallpaper that you could select the full height of the image to the actual height of the screen. But now the crop tool uses two image frames where the tallest one is for the lockscreen (I think) and the wide one is for the scrolling wallpaper. This means that you can't use the full height of the image for the scrolling wallpaper so with many images you end up zooming in on them and they either look blurry, or you can't actually get the whole image in there, cropping off the top and bottom.
I want to know if there's any apps that will allow you to crop to full height and therefore actually use a widescreen wallpaper at it's proper resolution as your scrolling wallpaper...
For a scrollable wallpaper the max resolution for One X is 1440x1280 if i'm right.Then it looks perfectly on home screen and on lock screen.I've tried also with Full HD wallpapers but it's blurry and it looks really bad,so try 1440x1280 and you should be satisfied :fingers-crossed:
Cheers
Hello guys!
I have a bug in CM10-based ROM on lockscreen, it's not nasty, but I'd like to fix it. As you can see in attached screenshot, time is cut on the right side. Seems like it has static width somewhere spelled out.
I think something needs to be changed in lockscreen layout in framework-res.apk, but I don't know what exactly.
Does it move over if you use 12 hour time format?

No, but if I set smaller font size in system settings - it fits but that font size is not suitable for me.
