[Q] Best resolution for s3? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

What is the best resolution for our devices, I wasn't too resize a picture to be a full screen wallpaper
Also what is the best way to go about doing this?
I should state that I'm looking to make this picture big enough to fill just one hone screen page completely

If you wanted to go the manual approach just resize to 1280 × 720

[Q] Ripple Effect Not Working

I really love the ripple effect of the lock screen for the SGS3. Am I able to use it with a different wallpaper (other than stock)? It won't let me select ripple, because I'm using a different picture, but it's not a LWP. Does ripple effect only work with the preselected, stock wallpapers?

Yeah, I'm running XquiziT v26. I couldn't get it to work when it was not rooted and stock, also.

Im on v26 as well. So youve never had it working??? Thats just odd.
In lock screen options are you certain you have ripple effect checked?

Weird thing is:
It was blacked out, but I found out why. I was using a third-party application to set my home screen/lock screen wallpaper. For some ought reason, the phone confused the static pictures with live wallpaper. So, I saved one of the wallpapers and opened it in a photo viewer and set it as my backdrop. Sure enough, when I checked, the "ripple effect box" was no longer grayed out.

Thanks anyway for replying. Obligatory "thanks" for the effort on your part.
If need-be, a mod can close this thread.

+1 you have to say it as scale or exact with your picture being resolution of 720x1280

Wallpapers

Just want to ask fellow xda members for help and opinion. Im using the same picture on my homescreen and lock screen but I have noticed that the quality of the picture on the lockscreen is nit as clear or as sharp as the one on my home screen even though im using the same picture. Any ideas?

Most likely you have the "Ripple Effect" enabled, just go into lock screen settings and disable it.

Ive tried the method u told me and it does help a bit, still not as clear as if I use the picture as home screen but better that if I have the ripple effect on. Thanks for the great advice.

Changing wallpaper on lockscreen

Is there a way to change the wall paper on the lock screen? I like to use the normal lockscreen but when I try and change it to a picture that I have it only will allow me to change it to the default pictures the phone comes with. Please help, I can't figure it out. It gets me to where I can select my own picture but it won't change when I check the lock screen.

u mind letting US know what the solution to your issue was???
When you go into application manager, click settings to reset preference.....I use quick pic and I forgot I set that as my default. Be sure to crop in and set wallpaper using gallery.

Just you. Take into account the soft keys use screen real estate.
