Weird wallpaper behavior - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using CM12, but I guess this is relevant for lollipop as a whole.
Here's a weird thing that I noticed.
I tried to set a wall paper like this :
{
"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"
}
But when I applied it, it appeared like this :
I got that problem with other pics too.
What is going on here ?

Depending on the launcher/number of home screens wallpapers can be stretched to accommodate two/three home screens for example. When using a wallpaper which has a "single-screen" resolution, like 1440x2560, it will be zoomed in to cover two or three home screens.
What you can do is use a 2880x2560 for testing purposes. If this wallpaper shows correctly (not zoomed in vertically but able to scroll horizontally) the above assumption is correct

[Question] Wallpaper Distortion Help!

Hi, I currently have this image I would like to use as my wallpaper:
{
"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"
}
However, when I set it as a wallpaper on my phone, I get something like this:
Does anyone know what I can use to set it nicely? Thanks!
Why dont you try a widescreen wallpaper like this one

By the way this probably should have been in Q&A
Even with a widescreen wallpaper, distortion issues appear...

I am guessing you are new to android. Android has scrollable wallpapers so if you use the right aspect ratio, it will not distort. Using portrait style wallpapers will automatically zoom in because the phone is trying to stretch it so when you scroll from screen to screen, it shows more of the picture. Get a high res widescreen wallpaper and it will look good.

Screen problem

Hello!
I recently bought a nexus galaxy and I'm very happy of it. However I discovered that the screen has a problem. When I use the phone at night there is a disturbing darker line if the screen uses dark colors. I can not make you a picture to figure out beacuse my camera can not see the difference of colors. I attach an image to make understand you. I get such an effect on a totally black screen. Obviously it is not so pronounced in reality.
Another small problem is a slight problem with some brightly colored screens that remain imprinted on the screen a few tenths of a second and then disappear when i change screens.
Today I called samsung support but has not been helpful. Should I try again?

My guess from looking at the pictures is that you choose a different anchorpoint for the module that renders the menu icon. Probably center left while the rest is on center? If you want elements to stay together if the widget get resized you should use the same anchorpoint for all modules so something like this doesn't happen
I think the problem is the device resolution, because i created this in a 480x800 and i'm testing in a 1080x1920. Tried what you said and the problem continues.

Thank you!
This one. There is too much contrast, the watch is a little bit lost there
All got fixed, images got updated.
Now there are some for Square and Round
Took some time but it was worth it.
App is still free, and will remain so

Is there no "Zoomed-in" writing view in Samsung Notes?

I played with the Note7 at a Samsung store last week, and I noticed that there was no zoomed-in writing feature like I had on my Note5. The feature may have had a name, but it was basically where you had a small text box that you wrote in, and S-Notes would put that text on the notepad. It's much easier to write clearly when you write in a large box that then gets copied as a smaller version of the text.
I also couldn't find any option for throwing lined paper as a background.
I'm concerned that one of my favourite S-Pen features has now disappeared!
Action memo?

No - I'm talking about the zoomed-in mode within the S-Notes app.
