Wallpaper resolution?

hey guys, Im having some problems with the wallpapers. What resolution do I need to use for them in the Iconia. I always have to crop the wallpapers and lose big chunk of the picture. Can anyone help me on this?
[Acer Iconia A500] chickin2000:
Love the desktop, is that the joker prey tell in the corner of the wallpaper? Nice ;) @WereCatf
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
Aye, I made that wallpaper for my PC a while and uploaded it at http://wallbase.cc/wallpaper/862475 . I think looks pretty good on the tablet, too.
[Acer Iconia A500] chickin2000:
Yes it looks really good, wellllllllll is it the joker? Lol :rolleyes: might have to see if I can do something like that. I'm all things marvel at the mo :D

[Acer Iconia A500] yutzyscott:
Here is what i have so far. I have rooted and put the tabooney custom rom on. Added a few apps and this is my setup as is is now. I have only had my iconia a couple of days but, im totally loving the experience.
[Acer Iconia A500] Oskiee:
So how are people handling the whole overly cropping issue? any wall paper i wnat to use doesnt look good because it gets cropped to hell and gets pixelated like crazy cause it magnifies it to much?
[Acer Iconia A500] petrutzh:
I have 3.1 but i haven t this buttons
[Acer Iconia A500] mickeyjuice:
It's actually from the ASUS ROM.
[Acer Iconia A500] Oskiee:
Howed you get the icons on the side like that?
[Acer Iconia A500] yutzyscott:
The best way i found is to download picsaypro from the market and scale down the pic by adding border to it. Then when you crop the pic you are only cropping out the border that you added. It takes some playing around with it but its the best method as of yet.

Are you using MultiLive Wallpaper app to get different wallpapers in each screen? Do you find that it slows down your Iconia?
[Acer Iconia A500] :
My Droid GF. Gotta love her on my Virtuous Galaxy!

Both portraits and landscape modes uploaded. ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] snyph3r:
Yes Im using multilive and it is running pretty smooth with the transition between desktop. I have mine OC to 1400 and not seeing any slowdown with any apps at all....using Galaxy ROM....
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
Could you share your walpapers.....the first one to be precise....
[Acer Iconia A500] :
What about battery use? Galaxy is a drain enough as it is on mine. ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] snyph3r:
The app itself doesnt use that much battery, doesnt even show up in the setting stat. I think it only runs when you move desktops unlike other live wallpapers that runs all the time...:cool:

Sorry folks, I'm been off the XDA airways a few days.

I made them myself. I made a handful of them a while ago. I have had a few enquiries about them though. Thinking I should get off my butt and make a few more then release the whole lot.

The icon images I made myself, and then used Desktop Visualizer. I ♥ DV. It's brilliant for customising, and no root required. Woo-hoo!

If you're not wanting to make your own icons, check out this XDA thread for a lot of icon packs - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=824656

Desktop Visualizer - https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.co.bii.android.app.dskvzr&feature=search_result
[Acer Iconia A500] yutzyscott:
For all of those asking this question i have found a solution. In android market download the free live wallpaper "multi picture" you may find it by simply typing live wallpapers in the search bar. When you go to set the live wallpaper click settings and change the picture source the the image you desire and set the transition effect to none, then be sure the pic size is set to full screen. This will give you any full image as a solid background with no resize or cropping needed.

I am Currently running VEGantab ginger and wanted to try a different rom

I get the following error when I try to install VEGan 5, or Caulkin... I followed the directions in the sticky

I wipe data/factory reset, clear cache and delvik, then I go to choose the zip from the sdcard and I get this message:

Finding Update Package

Opening update package

E:Can’t open /sdcard/roms/gtab.VEGAn.1.00.beta5.1.user.final.zip

(bad)

Installation aborted.

I can still install VEGanTab Ginger from the same directory and Vanilla, so I don’t know what the issue is.

Any fixes?

:confused::mad:
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcrews:
bad download or copy to your tablet.

Delete and re-download gtab.VEGAn.1.00.beta5.1.user.final.zip
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forgiventhief:
I have tried that several times. I have also donloaded from the XDA forum, and from VEGAn's site.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcrews:
Rename it to something like Vegan.zip, put it in a different directory or something to see why you are having issues. It could be too many characters, or something simple like that.

when you browse to chose it to install, it errors then?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forgiventhief:
Yes. It begins the script, but immediately errors.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forgiventhief:
I tried renaming it, but it still didn't work. Thanks though. Maybe re-partitioning?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcrews:
I don't see how that would help installing.

Something is going on with the install since it's aborting at install.

You said you can install other ROM's without issue...just this one, right?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forgiventhief:
Calkulins and Vegan 5. I was hoping to go back to a 2.2 Rom so video acceleration will work. I also tried doing it from ROM installer, but still not working.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhoff33:
I'm also getting this, going from a 2.3.3 ROM to a 2.2 ROM

And I also tried re-downloading it a few times
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhoff33:
Actually this seemed to fix it:

Reboot device, go back into CWM

Clear data/cache/dalvik, etc. (maybe a few times?)

Install from zip

Worked this time!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forgiventhief:
Ok. Thanks. I'll try it tomorrow. Just curious, did you wipe and then wipe again, or reboot recovery after your initial wipe and wipe again. Just curious your order of operations.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csills:
Help

I am getting this also, any way to confirm this works?

I just went to 1.2 and followed the steps, but get this if I attempt to do it by update.zip or the install zip way.

Had the same problem earlier. Then I downloaded oclf from market, now didn't seem to had any lagging problem. Not sure whether it is oclf or something I did. Now no more lagging tho. You can give it a try.

Btw, I also read that custom rom does take care of lagging time. You may also want to give it a try.

[Desire Accessories] mouth:
Hi,

Is anyone aware of a bluetooth controller that will act as a remote control, whilst still using corded headphones?

If I have corded headphones plugged into the Desire, and then pair a bluetooth device with AVRCP, will the Desire still pump the music out through the corded headphones or will it stop and send the music to the bluetooth device instead?

Additionally, can I use the bluetooth device as a remote control to answer/reject an incoming call, put the audio for the call is still handled by the corded headphones (with inline mic)? Thus, if a corded headphones/mic is plugged into the Desire, will it still use that if a HFC/HFS bluetooth device is paired?

Why? I want to use corded headphones for the better sound quality and not having to worry about battery charging, whilst still being able to remote control my Desire for music and call answering when it's tucked away in my jacket or pocket without having to pull it out to control it.

Thanks.
[Desire Accessories] geejay008:
I have the Jabra Clipper, which I bought from the Apple Store...

...I can confirm its reliable, and the sound quality is ok...

Battery life, I think it lasts a good 8 hours straight... perhaps more... not sure...

....i do know that I tend to charge it every two days or so after heavy use during commuting home/work...

Its a great bit of kit! ^_^

Besides UK and Italy, no other european country has received the Transformer. It is listed on Amazon.fr and Amazon.de, but no date, just "available soon".

My hunch is it will be available on the second week of May, but does anyone have reliable data?

Acording with the oficial twitter account of Asus Spain, the Transformer will be available in Spain in the mid June.

Unlucky,I guess they didn't have much stock available. Mine is on its way to me.

Carphone warehouse Ireland had some stock last week but unfortunately their staff weren't very clued in to this fact when I checked in with them on Thursday.

I haven't seen it anywhere (neither b&m store nor a web one). I have played with the Acer on a b&m shop, but no news of the transformer...

I think they only sell online, for now. According to their website there is no in-store stock for any store in the Haute Savoie department (74).

Someone mentioned in another thread that Darty also has some stock, although it's not reflected on their website. Apparently if you go in a store and ask for it, you can pay and have one unit delivered in the store within 48 hours.

[Xperia Arc General] solidkevin:
So the GS2 has been getting fantastic reviews and the specs are just monstorous! It pretty much kills anything on the market right now, how do you feel about this? Will the Arc be outdated quicky? These phones move WAY to fast for me...its not even funny...you buy a phone and theres already one that makes you feel inferior...
[Xperia Arc General] rajeshr:
While I think the GS2 has better technical specs than the SE, I think the overall design of the Arc is much more unique than that of the GS2. I also find that the Sammys tend to be more plasticy (if that is a word). Additionally, I don't think apps (and the OS) have been optimized for the dual core processor in the GS2.

What the GS2 has going for it, is a front facing camera (which should have in the Arc too) and an unlocked bootloader! Those two might tempt me to pick up a GS2 to play around with.
[Xperia Arc General] Mano1982:
You should have waited for S2 instead of buying Arc :) What specifications S2 was going to have, was published on every mobile site since S2 was announced :)
[Xperia Arc General] Nimche:
I do think always to buy things per my own need not to what is the highest. I did care for design and decent performance. ARC was and is the solution for me. Does S2 devalue my arc? no! This is not a good example but I will try :D

You are driving an Audi RS4 and then Nissan GTR comes out with a performance car, do I care? no because I love my RS4 very much(BTW I don't have a RS4) :D
[Xperia Arc General] Mano1982:
+1 :D well said..
[Xperia Arc General] ArcOnFire:
SGS II is also ~150 USD more expensive than the Arc.

With the rapid growth of GPU and CPU for mobile, IMHO, spending your every pennies to get the top line of these hardwares every couple months is not worth it. It will get depreciated very quickly. And all the values left would be:

1. design and built quality

2. battery life

3. functionalities

Arc's beautiful design and 8MP camera + exmor r, however, will stay on top of the line for quite a while :D
[Xperia Arc General] mtechfan:
(1) The Galaxy S2 is Fugly

(2) "Samsung" and "quality" are two words that wont be used in the same sentence.
[Xperia Arc General] Dazza2910:
I don't think the Arc is in anyway now going to be forgotten about.

I was initially going to wait on the S2, but it was going to cost me about £150 on the plan I'm on, where as the Arc was free. Not really bothered about the dual core CPU as it runs more than fast enough as it is. Front facing camera I don't care about as I'm never going to use it (don't think many iphone users do either as it only works on wifi). The feel and quality of the S2 is way way way below that of the Arc too.

So still well happy with my choice.

Dazza
[Xperia Arc General] kitsVA:
I just purchase Arc from Japan knowing it's long been outdated. Even several months old Atrix's has killer specs compared to Arc. I still went for Arc mainly because of it's styling.

I want to wait for GS2 but the styling doesn't appeal to me and not having LED notification kind of killed my desire for it.

With Android handsets, by the time the phone you desire hits the market, there is another killer one coming in a month. It's hard to keep waiting. But, I will move to GS2 if it looks better outside than it is in pictures. But, I doubt Samsung can make anything as attractive as SE phones :-). Just the SAMSUNG logo kills it for me:p
[Xperia Arc General] batman_112:
Could not agree more!!! Well said!
[Xperia Arc General] solidkevin:
LOL I agree, it has monster specs but it is FUGLY! Arc and IP4 are MUCH better looking..
[Xperia Arc General] terroj:
SGS2 is definately amazing phone specs wise. There's no denying that. I was going to get SGS2, but got Arc instead. I just wanted to get rid of my iPhone.

Arc looks amazing, works very well and is fast. SGS2 is faster and has better screen, but Arc actually does everything I need currently. I think Arc is enough for me the next 2 years. There will always be new stuff coming, but there is no real need to change every 6 months.

SGS2 will probably be the king until SGS3. But it doesn't make my Arc bad. Actually my Arc is excellent :)
[Xperia Arc General] Step666:
A phone with better specs than the Arc has been released, so what?

It was bound to happen at some point.
