I need a website or app where I can find wallpapers that I dont need to crop.There is nothing more frustraing than browsing through all these beautiful wallpapers and then when I want to use one, I can only use 50% of the picture.I absolutely love to look through wallpapers and save them on my phone, I change my wallpaper every other day, but hate the fact that I can only see part of the picture.

I found some pretty neat wallpapers, 480x800 I believe, and would like to use them on my EVO. Looking at them in the Gallery they are damn sweet, BUT when I try to set them as Wallpaper a cropping tool pops up.
I want to use the images as they are seen in the gallery, cropping doesn't cover the entire image and looks like day old death. Am I asking for something that's impossible?
I am using HTC One V (Android 4.0). And as in other phones, when using default HTC Sense launcher, I am unable to set any random image as wallpaper without cropping. One V comes with screen resolution of 480x800 and I downloaded few wallpapers with this specific resolution. But HTC still forces me to crop almost half of image which is irksome.
It sets full image as wallpaper but when I move to right or left for alternate desktops, I get thick black edge. I even selected "Scroll" but still same problem. With no scroll, it goes completely wrong.
Quickpic - They say, use "set as quickpic wallpaper" but this option doesn't work too. It shows a frame to crop which doesn't expand to cover entire screen and if I dont do anything frame, it set image inside frame as wallpaper.
Why do you have to crop a pic when selecting as wallpaper or bbm profile pic? On previous platforms I've always been able to zoom out of the pic to make it fit. Having to crop every photo is getting very annoying! Any way around this or how to zoom out of pictures?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have my wallpaper fixed so it doesn't move when I move from screen to screen. Since I'm using a fixed wallpaper why does it still want me to crop an image? I have an image on my phone that fits the screen perfectly but when I go to set it as a wallpaper it wants to crop it and cut the image pretty much in half which is really dumb. Anyway around this?
View 22 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know how to set a picture as your wallpaper without cropping the image to fit all 7 screens on the evo. Basically I had a wallpaper app called "shake them up" which allowed me to set any of my pictures as the wallpaper without cropping them. After the latest update the app is making me crop like the phone does.

View 5 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to do it? I took a picture in portrait that fits the Droid X screen size perfectly and I want to use that as my wallpaper. I have scrollable wallpaper off and don't use the landscape mode for the home screen. I have that turned off as well. So really it makes no sense and its highly annoying.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been searching on this forum for hours now and can't seem to find any information on a work-around for cropping images for the wallpaper on my Samsung Moment. I've tried "Wallpaper Set & Save" and it just crops it automatically. I just installed the ADW Home Launcher and I can get up to 7 screens on it... but for some reason, my phone still wants to perform as if it's running on 3 screens. So it just automatically crops it.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am currently working on a wallpaper application and I was wondering if there is a way to make the bitmap look less blurry and more crisp once it is set as a wallpaper. Does it just require cropping the picture and resizing it to fit perfectly the size of the screen or there is some other way of solving this issue? I read that the application wallpaper set and save is able to deliver very good quality wallpapers once launched!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to crop a photo to use in a Live Wallpaper but I'm getting a FileNotFoundException when the crop activity tries to save my new cropped image. This is the code I'm using:
File file = new File(getFilesDir(), "wallpaper.jpg");
Intent intent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
intent.setData(uri);
DisplayMetrics metrics = new DisplayMetrics();
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(metrics);
intent.putExtra("outputX", metrics.widthPixels * 2);
intent.putExtra("outputY", metrics.heightPixels);
intent.putExtra("aspectX", metrics.widthPixels * 2);
intent.putExtra("aspectY", metrics.heightPixels);
intent.putExtra("scale", true);
intent.putExtra("noFaceDetection", true);
intent.putExtra("output", Uri.parse("file:/" + file.getAbsolutePath()));
startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CROP_IMAGE);
The wallpaper.jpg file seems to exist on DDMS file explorer so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Any web browser where the resize/crop profile photo window in Desktop (full) version of facebook actually works? Seriously, I can not change my friggin fb profile pic because when it asks to drag the edges of the box to crop the photo, it wont do anything. When I touch it and try to drag, it just moves the entire screen around. It wont actually select it...kind of like you do when you click inside a Flash window. I have tried stock browser, Boat, Dolphin HD and Opera. None of them will move or resize the drag box. Im stuck without PC access and have been wanting to change my photo for months but have not been able to. I dont understand this. When I had my Touch Pro 2 with Windows Mobile and used Opera Mobile, I had absolutely no problem dragging that box around.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm using apex launcher, and I'm trying to match my apex wallpaper to the lockscreen wallpaper. But when I go to the lockscreen wallpaper in settings, it only allows me to choose a few OEM wallpapers. How can I get the apex wallpaper onto the lock screen?This is a minor annoyance, but is there a way I can theme the top of my phone where it tells me the time/cell signal to look like stock ICS? The touchwiz icons are really big and don't look that great, while taking up a lot of space.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running into an issue with my program when trying to crop an image selected by the user from their gallery. The issue so far only appears when running on a Droid X, as running on the original moto Droid works fine.
Basically the issue occurs as the cropping intent is being run. Once the user crops the photo and clicks the save button, it replaces the wallpaper on the main screen with the cropped image that was saved! It does not do this on the moto droid, or emulators. Below is the code for cropping and saving the picture to the SD card:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have not noticed this posted yet so just adding here for those that have not found it. The new camera/video/gallery application supports cropping. After taking a photo or viewing in the gallery, press the Menu button and Crop. You can resize the crop box by touching the edges or move it by touching in the center. Using this feature I was able to create and share panoramic images that were much more interesting. Clicking Menu and then More reveals the "Show on Map" command which displays the location the photo was taken.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a small project in which I download images from Internet in the form of drawable and use them in Imageview for which I have provided functionality similar to an Imagebutton but without the gray edges. The question is that is there any functionality in Android (similar to IPhone) by which we can crop the drawable from edges to make them rounded edged drawable. Even if its a "not-tested-neither-recommended" method, do let me know. I would like to work on this a bit.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to set the center of an ImageView without using paddings?
What I'm trying to do is, to place a part of an image outside the screen and animate it so that parts of the image become visible while other parts become unvisible.
Another problem is that when an image is bigger than the screen size it gets cropped. How can you disable cropping of the image?
And what kind of animation should be used? Should I go with RotateAnimation or is better to rotate the canvas ?
