[Q] Help with creating a new wallpaper - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Hey everyone,
I recently got my Note 3 and am trying to create a wallpaper and lockscreen from picture(s) that I have. I didnt see too many threads or posts online about it so I was wondering if anyone knew how to do this?
From what I can tell, the pics are usually 1920 x 1080 but even then, Im not sure how to create it in a way that I have the picture fit on the screen. Im not trying to make it a scrollable image, just mainly concerned about having the whole picture on my screen. Thank you.

1080x1920

Droid X Live Wallpaper Fix for G1

Anyone have this live wallpaper working on their G1? I tried installing the .apk on CM6 but it just shows a white screen.
Probably due to the resolution?

I dont think its that, i just think our gpu can't handle it or the relevant parts of renderscript are missing.
Either way, imma try to use the droid boot animation images + this to create one for our screens. Let's see how this works out lol.
Here this is wht i came up with lol. U can always make the images exactly like the original (as in the droid eye to be smaller n wht not) but i won't pursue it any further lol

first sorry for my english...
and second thank you very much for the first droid eye's live wallpaper working on my dream G1

[Help] Recolouring Sense

Hey all,
i'm currently designing a new theme for Sense ui, however i've managed nearly all of it, but when i recolour text input boxes and save them they look fine, however when on the phone they loose all resolution. become blocky and distorted. if i put the original images back, then they return to the original high resolution, how can changing their colour affect there resolution?
any help welcomed/
Luke.

Well I don't know exactly why,but for some reason the same things happens when sense downloads the contact photos from facebook,after a short time they become blury.I heard there was a fix for that,maybe you answer lies there.

That happens to all .9.png files!
They need to be patched with draw9patch, which u can find in the sdk tools!
You also must use eclipse to recompile the .9png's after you use the draw9patch tool. Search Google for great tutorials on how to use both.

Evolution jpg

Can someone please modify this jpg and add a small apple icon first in the line of evolution. I want to make this my lock screen.
Thanks

Here you go. Hope that works for you.
Edit: Ok, re-did the image using a 1920x1080 image pulled from Google. Saved the resulting file as a .jpg with the following dimensions - 960x800... that way you have the option of either having it centered or having the full image as you move from page to page.
I've also attached a screenshot with the image centered. Luckily... I managed to get it to fit on the first try.... yay.
Please note, if you decide to use the full picture instead of just the image center when you add it as your wallpaper, make sure you have an odd number of pages to scroll through and that your home page is the center page otherwise, the text will always be off and never centered.
Lol good one!

Oh stop complaining and just say thank you.
Not at all unappreciative of the jpg. Just asking if anyone else had the same issue with the image.
thanks
The original source that I used that was attached to this forum appeared pixelated to me. That is what I used to work with. I can try finding a better source to work on and maybe the outcome will be less pixelated. If you know where I can find a better source... that would also be helpful.
Edit 1/31/12: Nevermind... I found one. I will give it another go today.
Sorry about the original image. I took it strait off my phone so I thought that it would be good. Thanks so much for the rework.
There you go.
I uploaded two of them. One with the apple slightly tilted which to me makes it look like it was discarded. And one with the original request.
See screenshot from my phone showing where it fits with the stock clock on the phone.
Enjoy.
Not sure what is going on but they are extremely pixelated on my phone. To the point that its blurred out. Anyone else having this problem?
Here is a large version of the image. I have a version on my phone that is perfect with no pixelation. Here is the image details:
Dimensions 480x400
Width 480 pixels
Height 400 pixels
Horizontal and vertical resolution is 96 dpi
Bit depth 24
Size ends up being 9.31 KB
and its a .jpg
I hate to be a pain in the ass with this. I am very appreciative of all the hard work. Thanks again

So the two versions I uploaded for you are pixelated?
Are you running a ROM or stock? On my phone, they are very clear, no pixelation. Something doesn't sound right.

Are you still on blend?? I just aplied the tilted picture and its fine. I downloaded it then went to gallery and set as there. Try that.

Yes still running Blend... Love it! ICS Mms and the TSM by Maddoggins. I just tried it again and the same problem occurred. Changed both the lock screen wallpaper and the regular wallpaper and it looks the same. Here is a screen capture with the apple and one with the original as my lockscreen adjusted so I can read the time/weather/etc info. Thanks again

How are you downloading it? Try useing the xda app.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I download the image from here to my computer and then transfer to my phone. I will try the XDA app next. The total file size is way smaller than the original. I think that might be the problem.
Nope! I got it! Looks Great! I was having a complete ID10T error. I did not realize that I was just downloading the thumbnail and not the whole image.
Thanks for everyones help. I do appologize for my ignorrance.
I lowered the evolution image here so you can use it on the lockscreen and still see the clock, weather, etc.

[Q] Wallpaper resolution?

I really hope this hasn't been posting, I tried searching it, but this has been bothering for too long now.
I want to make a non-scrollable wallpaper, but I can't figure out what resolution to make the image? I tried to do the resolution of the screen, but it ended up being wrong of course.
I've even just tried to find other T989 wallpapers that look non-scrollable but I'm still having the same problem.
Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance!

Use Picspeed, there's options from within that to crop and make it non scrollable.

The white Google logo at the beginning when you turn the phone on.
All the other images I found are not of high enough quality.
This?
Yes. But the original one from the phone.
What's different about it?
The logo is bigger, and the resolution is 768x1280.
Is there anyway to extract the original one from the phone? I need it to be exact.
I don't think you wanna mess around with this since the so called boot splash is built in to the kernel. If you know this stuff, change it in your kernel at the high risk of a brick and if you're a noob like me, just let it be.

So by replacing this image with the same file name out will boot the new image?
Does file size matter?
Yes, I just want to make it part of my boot animation. I need the actual image so I can mess around with it and add new things to it.

You should also find out if the size of the image makes a difference with noting or is updates
I tried other images I found on Google Images but the resolution are too small.
I enlarged and expanded to size but it makes the Google Logo blurry and the detail deteriorates extremely.
Is there a way I can extract the original image?
Please.
Again.
I don't understand... Why don't you just get the highest res Google logo you can find on Google images and put it against a 768x1280 background?

Wow. You're like one of those people that call tech support and give the most vague answers and descriptions turning what could have been a 10 minute call into a 2 hour call. It took two pages just to understand what you were wanting, lol. Ok, ok...now that i've picked on you, i'll be serious. To help you out in future requests, it's always best to give out as much info as possible. What is the request, what is it for. It's always best to give out too much information rather than too little.
I agree with another poster here. Just download a high res google logo and slap it onto a background the size you need. Gimp is free and can do just this.
Oh, also found this (just happened to be browsing in the boot animations thread. I haven't seen the animation itself, but it's the logo from the splash screen with 2 gears under it. I'm sure with a small amount of editing, you can get this to do what you want.

I don't see what the big deal is. He asked for an image and you guys all get into his business as,img what it's for. It doesn't matter, he just asked for the image.. you are the one making this complicated.
Now, OP you can probably find an image on google images or try to figure out how to extract it rom the splash image
