[Q]Wallpaper & contacts image - Xperia Arc Themes and Apps

Hello there, this question might sound stupid but i did search all the forum but all hotkeys with wallpaper ends up to wallpaper threads.
When I'm trying to use an image as a contact picture i have to resize it.
Is it possible to use the whole image without cropping it out ?
Also the same with wallpapers. Can i have 1 full wallpaper in one selected screen? I know about lockscreen, but i dont want it for lockscreen only.
The image resolution is 587 x 698 (Its captured with xperia x8 but I want it on my arc)

Up, so many views but no replies

[Q] Lite'ning 1.5 lockscreen background

Hi,
I have just flashed my SGS2 this evening and so far i am loving the look and performance, but i have one problem, when i go into settings / Display / Screen Display / Lock screen / Wallpaper / and then go into Wallpaper Gallery there are only the stock wallpapers there, from what i read on the Lite'ning forum they have added lockscreen wallpapers but i can not figure out how to apply them.
I notice that if you set home wallpaper it gives you the Lite'ning Wallpaper option which contains all the wallpapers but no such option in the lockscreen settings.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks.
can anyone help me??
ive been searching google for the past 2 hours and cant find the answer....
When setting wallpapers in stock roms you are being asked if you want to use that pic for lockscreen too, don't know if custom roms use that option.
I would recommend "live wallpaper changer" (or something like this) it's a really great app..
I like to have my wallpaper switched randomly every 5 minutes to another of my 500 pics collection.
also you can double tap the backround to change the actual wallpaper.
When i was on stock rom i had to change each wallpaper, it never asked if i wanted to use as lock wallpaper aswell....
It would be easy to change the lockscreen wallpaper if i knew where they were in my phone system, but i cant seem to find them....
Thanks for your replied

oh you can change the lockscreen in the display options, its pretty hidden but you will find it there.
Yea thats in display / screen display / lockscreen
But there are no lite'ning custom wallpapers eather in wallpaper gallery or gallery
I dont understand it lol because if i set home background it gives me a lite'ning wallpaper option and there they are lol

After some more searching i have come across the lite'ning lockscreen wallpaper, it is in the framework-res.apk but i found it on google images and just saved it to my gallery, i am asuming that his wallpaper should be auto applied when flashed to the device but didnt for me :/

Download the litening wallpapers.apk from the official thread..put it on your phones sdcard..download astro file manager and locate the .apk file. I think if you hold the file it will pop up with a menu and somewhere you can explore the .apk. Then just save the pictures you want from it and use them as your lockscreen
you know i must be bleeding blind, i didnt see the wallpaper apk download link.
I cant believe i have been searching all this time and it was infront of my face.
Thanks for all the help.
Glad to be of help

Saving Pictures to lock screen Wallpaper Gallery
Thanks guys - just what I was looking for. I have saved the lightening pics to my photo gallery so I have been able to locate them and load my new lock screen pic - awesome. However, where would I have to save the files so they are visible in my wallpaper gallery, that way I wont have to look at them each time I goto my photos...
Thanks in advance...
That i dont know, you will have to do a search on net or wait for one of the mega xda dev's to reply

How to set wallpaper without cropping?

Why is it that everytime i choose a pic out of my photo album to set as a wallpaper it asks me to crop it with a weird looking box. these happen with pics ive taken and also with wallpapers that are meant for the xperia S.
I also have that box with wallpapers for Xperia S (1440x1280)
I think it's just for when you want to use a part of that image, you still can select everything so i don't mind
with 1440x1280 resolutions you better select everything if you want best quality, but with images with higer resolutions for example the images taken with your XPS with higer resolutions you might want to select a part of the image (if you desire) :good:

Hi Harsh,
Just a follow up on PicSpeed wallpapers... When I use that method, and set an image to full screen, with no crop... After I reboot my phone, the wallpaper image quality has been reduced and I need to reset it to restore the quality.
Have you (or anyone else) / encountered this and do you have a solution?
Thanks again.
Dodol wallpaper maker from play store. That's exactly what you need

Cheers.

How to add wallpaper without cropping

I have some 1280/800 wallpapers that I would like to use but when selecting them you can insert the whole pic. You have to crop etc and then you can't see the whole wallpaper.. is there anyway to get my full picture on screen
Giving it some beans on my blue S3 Powered by CheckROM EvoHD™ V2
I use Multipicture Live Wallpaper, and choose the option to show the whole picture. You can have different pictures for each of your Home Screens, or just one across them all.

I had this problem too, but don't worry it will completely work. Thanks to lost sorrow who gave me lessons.
You don't open it from the app drawer. You open it by pressing to add the wallpaper and when it asks you to choose what app or wallpaper to open say live wallpaper and when you do it will ask if you want to open regular live wallpaper or the multilive app.
It will take some tinkering to learn to use he app but there's a TON of different settings and configurations to allow you to do everything under the sun. Personally, I set it to use one wallpaper image that doesn't change, so my wallpaper stays in place and the launcher home pages rotate on top of the one wallpaper. You can also have the wallpaper change at each homescreen or use one wallpaper that turns with home pages but stays the same image, etc.
PicSpeed and Tablet Wallpaper also do the trick. Same thing as above. Choose wallpaper in gallery and choose one of these programs to apply it as wallpaper. This has been answered several times in Themes section.

[Q] Optimus G Lockscreen Live Wallpaper

hello. if this has been asked before, please point me to the thread and lock this one. i am wondering if it is possible to make your lock screen wallpaper a live wall paper like you can your home screen? i know with the gs3 you could do it from settings, but in my lgog the lock screen settings doesnt have the option to select live wallpapers for it. it only lets me use gallery pics or wallpaper pics, not live wallpapers. so does anyone know of a trick to get it to enable live wallpapers on the lock screen? thank you for your time.
I just got done scouring the internet for an app or mod to do this but I came up empty. I think there was some weird limitation because there was plenty of interest for something like this and a few bootleg ideas.
The best of those is clear lockscreens which let you see a live wallpaper if one is set as your normal background, but that's the best you can do at least for now. Just search for clear or transparent lockscreens to try it.

Well you could delete(make sure to copy it somewhere first) lockscreen3.apk and you will have the ability but you lose the shortcuts and the lock screen just looks like this and the camera button doesn't even work

And I have tried the clear .png and it doesn't work. The lockscreen app has a white background behind it that I don't believe is an image, so I don't know how you would take it out.

[Q] Crop wallpaper

hey DX community
Does anyone know a program like this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sanjn.twcrop but for hTC...that make possible to crop a bigger area of all images ?
Maybe this one : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shirobakama.wallpaper&hl=en
Sometime I use this but most of the time I use the PicSpeed Wallpapers "Set As Wallpaper" feature.
