Maybe put the photo on a larger colored background? It crops the photo for both directions of the screen. If your original will fit inside both directions you can keep it whole. Only deal here is that you will see a colored background on the sides or top depending on the size and shape of the original. black or deep red might not be bad.

There has got to be a way to set a damn picture as a wallpaper without having to crop it.. I just want a regular pic as the wallpaper. Period. Like I could do 5 years ago with my damn A900 for christs sake!!
Has anybody figured out a root way or adb way or any OTHER way other than downloading aweful apps that crash every other day???????
BTW, I'm running CM6..
Are you pulling the edges of the frame on the picture?

? I don't know what that means so I would say no...

The frame in the pic...expand it?
Usually put the phone in landscape and use the left and right edges to expand. Should work. If that's not what you were saying I apologize.

Pictures has to be cropped, but you can massively expand the crop box.
I was so frustrated with my low-res crop until I discovered that you can expand the crop box to 800 x 480 resolutions.

Yeah no I don't know.. When I choose the pic from the gallery, it comes up, with a crop box, but landscape or portait I can only drag the crop box so big (which is only half the photo) So say I take a pic of my truck.. I cant have the whole picture just like it looks in the gallery.. I can only have some of the picture.. then once cropped and you click "set" it expands it even more... so damn frustrating....
Hmm...never tried it with an actual photo. >.<
Are you taking the pic in landscape mode so you have a wider pic to work with? (<-- silly question, I know >.< x2)
I noticed on my friends phone he had taken a cool pic with in portrait mode, so when he went to set it he could only do so much with it.
Have never had any issues using another pic/wp and using it all.
Could always go with illogic's reasoning as well, below
If your picture was of the correct aspect ratio, you wouldn't have to crop it. The default wallpaper in sense ROMs is 960 x 800. Photoshop the image you want to 6:5 and it'll work.

I've tried downloaded .jpg's and camera pics.. I can't get either to work right.. I tried resizing the pic to 960x800 in photoshop.. save it.. put it back on the sd card, open gallery, choose the pic, crop box still comes up and still can't choose the whole pic within the crop box.. I'm not on a sense rom.. running cm6 final...
This was happening with my mom's Droid X. It was very frusterating. I know what you're talking about. Even though you crop a certain portion (albeit not all of the pic you want but you finally get to apoint where you'll settle) it blows the picture up even more and crops off more of the picture.
I don't know what the problem is yet, but I suggested to my mom to put on a higher resolution photo (she initially copied it from FB) and see what happens.
use wallpaper set and save from the market, it lets you keep the native res on the wallpaper
I just use 3d gallery. No crop

If you used photoshop and created a 960x800 jpg, you should not have any cropping. Again, you are doing it wrong if you still get cropping. With a 960x800 picture, load it into wallpaper and you are given the crop box. long press on any of the sides, then expand to fill the whole picture. I have never had a problem with that.
If you are using pictures taken with the camera on the phone, there will be a small amount of cropping, because those pictures are not the same resolution that the wallpaper is. Especially if you take a landscape picture, you will have to crop a lot out.
I was testing out the FFC on my Telus Galaxy S II and when I take a picture with it, I see the animation and the picture go to the bottom left corner, and then the little preview of the picture becomes flipped. When I tap on the picture to view in the Gallery, the picture itself is mirrored.
Is anybody noticing this? Is there a setting to flip it back?
Thanks!
Lol. I noticed this also. It actually "corrects" the pick. I took a pic and the saved preview pick flipped. But I noticed I had writing in the background. It is fine in the flipped pic but in the main display it's backwards this the flip.

Not exactly sure how to fix this, if it's even possible to fix it. Haha.
I've noticed that every pic I take while holding the phone in portrait mode is sideways. I think Samsung intended for people to hold the phone sideways to take pics, which I find dumb.
That's really odd.. I wonder if there is some sort of photo software for the phone that can be used to flip them back?
You can rotate photos with the built in gallery app, if that's what you mean...

I know you can rotate them in the stock Gallery app, but I wonder if you can flip them on a horizontal axis, if you know what I mean. That way, an "inverted" photo could be flipped right side up.
It works ok, when it flips it corrects it, when using the front camera its like looking in the mirror, like your right hand looks like its ur left hand, but once you take the pic it flips it and fixes it

Hello,
I have CM7 on my kindle. When I set a new background picture I notice that quality is worse then original file. So the picture looks blur. When I zoom picture manually it looks much better then when it is set as background. Does anyone noticed such a "problem"? Are there any way to solve it?
Thx in advance.

It worked just great. Thank you
After struggling with this myself, I found that 1200x1024 wallpapers fit the best on our screens.
Also when you find an image don't just copy the thumbnail actually open up picture before copying, and the screen Res is 1024x600 if I'm not mistaken

I had a similar issue, at popular wall sites I found ipad/ipad2 walls work ok but it does crop a touch off the top and bottom. These are 1024x1024 so that leads me to think agtef's 1200x1024 conclusion is likely exact.
The generic default camera app my nexus came with, use to show a thumbnail of the last picture you took. It would just sit in the bottom right of the screen.
It was super handy, cause I could tell if I did indeed just take a picture of what I was trying to take a picture of.. ANNNNND if i clicked the thumbnail it would open up the photogallery.. tres handy.
Does anyone know where I could get that app? or if there is a better camera app that has the same sort of functionality? I think the Galaxy SIII defauly camera app does this.
In the camera app swipe the right edge of the screen left and it will show your gallery.

Also, search for camera ics in the play store.
In dark(No light), My htc 10 shows me white points on screen during zoom in camera mode and video mode).
Fully zoomed in, and take a picture, my picture shows white points. THIS IS SO TERRIBLE. I JUST GOT 2 DAYS.

White points? The grid squares? You can turn those off under the camera settings. Otherwise, I don't see anything wrong in your screenshot.

Looks like you're taking pictures of stars!
Stupid question, have you tried cleaning the camera? ...... Of course you did.
In that case it could be dust on the inside, but how often are you taking pictures of things in the dark with no flash? Does it effect the picture in normal light or in low light with the flash?
Is it just me that can't differentiate the stars from the white spots.
OP, upload an edited version to illustrate what you're referring to.

Haha, that's the problem. I don't think the op was taking a photo of the stars. It just looks as though he is.
