Full screen wallpaper on lock screen - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I'm running gravity box which gives me the option to set a lock screen wallpaper but I cant find a good program to crop the image so it shows the full image.. Any suggestions?

You wanna be able to just crop and center the picture to portrait? In full resolution?
Could download Gimp and you can save as JPG with lowest compression. Otherwise you can upload the image and I'll do it for ya.. But Gimp is a free photoshop alternative and will certainly do the job well. Crop and paste to your tablet.
edit: - Remember to set the aspect ratio to 1200x1920 to begin with, when you fix the ratio it will scale the image (if it is too small or too big, so you can drag and scale the image to a higher or lower resolution but it will still keep the proportions in order to display the image you cropped to fit the lockscreen. Don't worry about the resolution changing below in "size", as long as you don't over-scale the image too much it will still look rather clear just don't use way too small images.)

themeing gurus: random background?

I have a few backgrounds that I'd like to rotate with the same homescreen. Is there a way (scripting maybe?) to rotate the background? Even if it's once per day or something. tried looking for something that'd do this or a way to do it and so far have come up empty.
I found a program called ThemeChanger that will rotate a background, except I've noticed is that although the default background (as configured in the theme xml file) works flawlessly, if I go through Start>Settings>Background and select another background image that I created (using the same exact detentions) the backgound is positioned directly above the bottom mru plugin. Also, the background to the mru is white, which looks horrible. I've tried setting the bgcolor to black, but that didn't seem to work. Here's an example:
Homepage using "Default" in Start>Settings>Background, displaying the images configured in the xml file:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Homepage using alternate background image as set in Start>Settings>Background. Notice how the highlighted areas no longer match up with the information.. the image is positioned from the bottom, above the mru.
Yes, I have a thing for guys in ties.
Thanks!
bump. anyone?
WM6/Rogers fixed the issue. Yay.

really all you need to do is find the large version of this wallpaper, edit it on your pc to scale to 240X320 and change the file name to the .jpg file name you want.
use can use any editing program but you can use the most simplest program like MS paint use the option stretch/skew and reduce the size until the attributes show 240 px by 320 px.
here's a link to one image you may want to try editing; http://farm1.static.flickr.com/171/414469897_a3b4f09f63.jpg
Edit: Here. I took that image and edited it fo you for 240X320 resolution. Hopefully this is that you're looking for.

wallpapers blotchy?

no matter what wallpapers (size, format, quality) i use they all are slightly blotchy when set as a background. also, it doesnt matter what program i use to set them. flickie hd, seems to minimize this but its still blotchy. there are no other graphical issues. icons and everything display great. below are some examples. these are HQ HD images. anyone have a clue?

download a free app called "wallpaper set and save" off of the market. it's takes the distortion away and it's a free app.

always worked for me, not much else you can do unless you have photoshop and can remove the color banding.
The MMS compression fix and MMS 5MB limit flashable mods on the Themes and apps section seem to get rid of the wallpaper compression for me for some reason, even though this has nothing to do with MMS.

[Q] Wallpaper resolution

Why is it when I set the lockscreen wallpaper it sets it full like this
Spoiler
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And if I do the same on the homescreen wallpaper it sets it so cropped like this?
Spoiler
That image is 2560x1600. I tried doing the same with Nova as well, same result. What's the optimal resolution for landscape? 2560x1600 would be for a fixed one, so I imagined 5120x1600 would do the job for a scrolling wallpaper, but nope, it won't let me select that much area.
Which model?

Tab S 10.5. Well the resolution is the same, so I didn't think it was a necessary detail.
8.4 is 1600 x 2560
10.5 is 2560 x 1600
The two devices have a different 'default' for landscape mode, have you tried flipping the image through 90 degrees and see if it makes a difference?
That's just how it is which I find sad. Even if you get a wallpaper with the right resolution for this device it still won't occupy the way it should on portrait mode but only on landscape mode and I'm not really sure why, I guess it's a touch wiz thing or a Samsung issue.

Question Fold 3 APP resolution problem

Sorry to ask about screen resolution problem. I found some APP display unfit with the inner screen. For example, instagram cannot display the whole picture. Or the APP will display very large and ugly.
I had try to amend the DPI to 850 in developer mode, or amended by adb shell wm size 2400x3840. But it doesn't help at all.
May I ask any method to fix the screen unfit problem? Or only can be fixed by the APP developer?

use the customize app aspect ratios option. It can be found in Settings-advanced features-labs.

It seems like that only method is to set the APP to 16:9, but it will become a little ugly under the inner screen...

I get this when I click on installation in the aspect ratio settings. Change to full screen and it will work better.
