[Q] Optimum jpg resolution for photos - Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

On the Xperia Tablet Z which is 1920x1200 what is the best resolution for jpg photos ?
(I know it's not 1920x1200 because the home / back icons take up some of that.)
thanks...

Full size image resolution is 2880 x 1920 pixels. Displayed image resolution is 1920 x 1128 pixels in landscape mode and 1200 x 1848 pixels in portrait mode. In both modes, the topmost 72 pixels of the image is covered by the translucent menu. See Wallpaper Template for Xperia Tablet Z.

thanks
thanks, just the answer I was looking for!

[Q] Wallpaper size and resolution

Hey guys and gals,
How about wallpaper size and resolution?
What size and resolution of wallpaper are you guys using for the Archos 101. I'm currently trying to find the best size of wallpaper that will allow me to see the whole picture on the screen without having to cut a large chunk out of it.
What are you guys experiencing and have observed.

If you just use the stock wallpaper app, that is never going to happen. It will fore you to cut the picture in a square, and then zooms in.
Use something like Wallpaper Set and Save, or MultiPicture Live Wallpaper. I prefer the latter as it does not cut or crop my picture.
Same as every other Android device.
Double the narrow resolution.
So in our case, wallpaper for the 1024x600 display is 1024x1200.
For some reason though, not sure if it's Archos or Android, the quality is still degraded a bit. Not noticeable for a lot of images unless there's text that's already on the verge of illegible.
thanks, TempestDK! MultiPicture Live Wallpaper worked like a charm
I found that on my A70, I had to use a 1280x1040 image was perfect and gave me the full image. I have a great Super Mario wallpaper on currently (see attachment).
for A70 -> 960 x 800 or 800 x 960 and will work in vertical and horizontal position too
Here is a list of the recommended wallpaper resolutions for each Generation 8 devices
Archos 28 - 320x480 or 480x320
Archos 32 - 400x480 or 480x400
Archos 43 - 854x960 or 960x854
Archos 70 - 800x960 or 960x800
Archos 101 - 1024x1200 or 1200x1024

how about when it is on horizontal??does it fits?
I tried a 1024 x 1200 on my Archos 101 and it didnt look great. It lost the bottom of the picture. Looked OK in Portrait. There's something going on with the way Archos is resizing the pics.....

[Q] Wallpaper resolution for Single home screen page

Hello. You would assume that the native resolution for 1 x home screen page would be the exact same size as a lock screen wallpaper at 480 x 800 right? WRONG!
I have tried to use Gallery, Quickpic, Just pictures all without success
I believe that due to the nature of having multiple home screens (active or not) Samsung have somehow managed to make it impossible to set the correct resolution for a 1 page wallpaper.
With Quickpic it will simply not allow you to select the whole image
With Gallery it does the same but gives you the option to save it as portrait or landscape both of which do not work
Just pictures is giving me the same result
If you don't believe me try it for yourself. Make sure you select an image that is filled with content, not just a small icon in the middle with a bunch of blank space around it.
It's seriously annoying me and makes no sense as to why the native resolution is NOT WORKING! and not even allowing you to select the whole of the image to be used as a home screen wallpaper. But if you use that exact same image and set it as a lock screen wallpaper it works PERFECTLY
I have so far tried these sizes but still not getting anywhere
480 x 480
900 x 900
480 x 800
960 x 800
960 x 960
800 x 800
Can anybody please shed some light
1240x800
600x480
720x600?
Try dodol wallpaper maker.
I will try the above. Thanks for your replies.
did u succeed? what is the reqired resolution?
Thanks.
Are you using default TW launcher? I have no issues setting a 480x800 wallpaper when using default launcher. Other launchers have the issues you described.

Help with setting wallpapers.

Hi.
I'm trying to set a wallpaper on my Tablet S.
I've read that ICS uses 1920 x 1280, but when I set it it doesn't look right.
All I want is the stock ICS wallpaper.
I've seen the Tablet S Template PSD file, but I don't know how to use it.
Can anyone help?

Yes, the full scale H x V dimensions for Sony Tablet S ICS wallpaper images is 1920 x 1280 pixels, but the images must be cropped if they are to be displayed correctly.
Sony explains how to select a wallpaper image in ICS HERE. To the best of my knowledge, Sony has not yet released a video showing how to crop an image in ICS, however, they do show how to crop an image in HC in this VIDEO located at YouTube's web site. Cropping a wallpaper image in ICS is done pretty much the same way as it was in HC.
I provided a wallpaper image template and explained the pixel dimensions and viewable areas of wallpaper images HERE. I hope you find the template and information useful.
I make my own wallpaper images using an image editing program on my PC then copy them to my tablet into a folder I created and named /sdcard/Pictures/Wallpapers. Any images stored in the tablet's /sdcard/Pictures folder and its subfolders can be previewed and chosen via the "Gallery" selection on the "Choose wallpaper from" pop-up that appears whenever you long-press on any blank area near the center of the tablet's screen. You can also get to the "Gallery" selection via Settings > Display > Wallpaper.
Of course, you could always download and install wallpaper apps, but most of them are advertisement based and they never provided the control you can have by making your own wallpaper images and cropping them yourself.
I hope you find my reply helpful.

I also have installed the Simple Image Wallpaper app that your link leads to. It is actually a free, open source, non-advertisement based Live Wallpaper app. It works well, IMHO. One nice feature of the app is it allows for using different images for landscape and portrait mode.
Simple Image Wallpaper works best with images whose pixel resolution is the same as the screen of the telephone or tablet the app is installed on. For the Sony Tablet S in landscape mode, images that are 1280 x 752 pixels work best. In portrait mode, images that are 800 x 1232 pixels work best.
If the image is not 1280 x 752 or 800 x 1232 pixels, Simple Image Wallpaper will rotate the image if necessary for best fit, then stretch or shrink the image, and then crop the image until it fits the tablet's screen. This will sometimes cause parts of the image to be unviewable or to be displayed in a mode opposite to the intended landscape or portrait mode. Still, it's a great app.
Had expected lag what with it being a live wallpaper, but none at all, fantastic!

Sorry to give this thread one hell of a bump but Simple Image Wallpaper just saved my sanity! Thanks, the word needs to be spread about this. I tried all the other "apps" and I can't get an image to display correctly in landscape mode to save my life. I'm using this on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3. It took me a minute to find it though under "wallpaper>live wallpaper" because it does not appear in my app drawer.
Thanks again! :good:

All of Sony's stock Android 4.4.2 wallpaper images are 2880 x 1920 pixels with a resolution of 96 dpi (a few are 72 dpi); however, only 1920 x 1200 pixels are displayed on the screen. Swiping left or right causes the hidden pixels to be displayed. Wallpaper images you install will be displayed the same way. Images smaller than 2880 x 1920 pixels will be stretched so a portion of the image is displayed on the home screen and the remainder of the image is displayed on the left and right swipe screens (I think I said that correctly).
thank u ,,

How come when I use a 2560 x 1600 wallpaper I have to crop it.
If I convert to 1920 x 1080 I still have to crop it.
Is there any way I can set the wallpaper without having to crop?

When you do set as wallpaper on a 2560 x 1600 you only get the option to crop.
Always had this issue on android.
Never mind though found a workaround using an app called image 2 wallpaper which works a treat.
I use this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ridgelineapps.simpleimagewallpaper choose wallpaper, simple image, settings, select image, back button, set wallpaper
Yeah, but since wallpaper on android devices slides when scrolling through left and right, you'll need 2560 x 2560 to cover whole background.
