Weird. Most Android phones let you select the whole image as your home screen wallpaper as long as they are the correct dimensions. At least every one I have had so far. Currently use the Galaxy S II and it's pretty easy to do.
[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
I'll give that a shot. I was looking on your web site and didn't see a way to download. Thanks for the reply and Happy New Year.
[HTC Rezound] RED ZMAN:
I'm dying for an easy way to download these on my phone, without having to use my laptop.
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
You can either:

1. Download to your computer and then sync them to your phone

OR:

2. Get TapaTalk from the Android Market and that will allow you to download them directly to your phone.
[HTC Rezound] dopediculous:
Looks amazing! Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
You're welcome. Again, still trying to get around to putting a whole collection together.
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
Been working quite a bit lately. Haven't had time to upload them to a single spot, have added a few more though.
[HTC Rezound] bradxnght:
i have a bunch of random ones to contribute when u put the collection together

i could also resize a bunch of other hd wallpapers if you want some help :)
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
Sounds like a plan.
[HTC Rezound] bradxnght:
shweeeeeet
[HTC Rezound] republitarian:
Good stuff thanks!
[HTC Rezound] bradxnght:
iv started adding some here baldi http://www.flickr.com/photos/75715943@N03/
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
Hopefully I get a day off soon so I can start adding to them.

You re-sized all of these? Nice job, there's a lot of awesome pics in there
[HTC Rezound] clemson91:
Thank you, all of these are great.
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
Most of them, yes.

Thanks. :)

Not a problem. :)
[HTC Rezound] Technophile82:
Thanks for sharing! I have a couple of my own photos. I'll look into posting them later.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Nice thread, thanks.
[HTC Rezound] Technophile82:
OK, minor problem... I can't seem to have these wallpapers stick when I go to select them. I can pick wallpapers through Gallery, X-plore, and Astro, but when I pick the image, it doesn't change. They don't even show up in the Gallery. Any ideas? Maybe I'm not putting these in the right folder.
[HTC Rezound] chungviet811:
Awesome collection. Thanks alot for sharing:)
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
i use these wallpapers on mine..question though, for everyone else, are you only able to select a PORTION of the image to set as desktop? and not the entire thing? i can only select like one third or so of it..so i usually set it to the middle of the pic..but still, wish i could have the whole thing on there :\
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
try wallpaper wizard when setting wallpapers
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
that app sucks for the mere fact that i have 400 wallpapers in a file folder from here, and the one i want is literally towards the end, and there's NO WAY to just scroll through them. it has to load every single thumbnail for each page to see it. sooo annoying and would take 5 minutes just to get to my wallpaper lol

**nm, they have a beta mode that works the other way. sweet. still can't get it to work rgiht and get the full image though..adds black bars. meh. don';t like this app
[HTC Rezound] deli pastrami:
Nice collection, but yes a zip file or something would be awesmazing
[HTC Rezound] partizan1981:
Great collection!
[HTC Rezound] antdawg702:
Awesome, its hard to find this stuff
[HTC Rezound] krelvinaz:
I modify and create my own wall papers. I just find an image I like, pull it into my graphics program, enlarge it to whatever size and then cut it to fit (1280x720) and save it.

http://i.imgur.com/M3Soi.jpg

http://i.imgur.com/II4Bh.jpg

As mentioned, if you use Set as Wallpaper, it will only let you select a portion of the (normally very large) image.

However, I use a live wallpaper app called Multipicture Live Wallpaper . This can make rotating wallpapers. I normally use it to do just single images and it has options to display them a number of ways. I normally use it for a single fixed image which you can select using whatever editor you choose.

I manage images typically with QuickPic.
[HTC Rezound] Tired of the Bull:
I'm still a little confused about the whole wallpaper discussion here.

These pictures are amazing but why would I want to use 1440x1280 images on the Rezound? I could see this resolution being correct if the wallpaper still scrolled like in the Sense 2.x days but now that it is static 720x1280 is what is needed.

To confuse matters even more the crop tool in the Gallery still seems to think that the wallpaper scrolls as well because the aspect ratio of the selection box is incorrect and always results in either cropped or blurry images. Wizardrii works better but still creates a 1440x1280 image for the wallpaper of which only 720x1280 is actually image the sides of the picture are wide black bands when viewed in a graphics program.

If you want a truly "what you see is what you get" experience the images should be sized 720x1280 and applied with Wizardrii or similar program and then they will display exactly as you designed them down to the pixel without blurring or alteration.
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
I was still under the impression that they scroll like Android has always done? (shrug)
[HTC Rezound] Tired of the Bull:
No, each version since Sense 3.0 has a static wallpaper. This was necessary due to the continuous home screen scroll and 3d carousel that they implemented.
[HTC Rezound] dogredwing1:
Love the wallpapers :D:)
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
Hmm, my HTC Infuse had Sense 3.0 and the wallpapers scrolled.
[HTC Rezound] who MIKE D:
Don't worry about it man the wallpapers still work nicely, plus sense 4.0 is going back to the sliding wallpaper so these will work perfectly again when we get that ported
[HTC Rezound] uToTMeH8:
I just grabbed all of these so figured that I would zip and upload...here you go!

DOWNLOAD
[HTC Rezound] cm0803o2:
Thank you very much, this make choosing new wallpaper much easier.
[HTC Rezound] Meticode:
You're only going to get the whole picture on the homescreen if you have a home launcher that scrolls the wallpaper as you scroll. The Sense launcher centers whatever image you have in the center and the wallpaper as you scroll remains static. If you use another launcher like Apex, Nova or even GoLauncher you can choose to have the wallpaper scroll as you scroll through yoru homescreens, thus revealing the rest of the wallpaper.
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
I think the new version of Sense, will go back to the scrolling wallpaper. At least I hope it does.
[HTC Rezound] Troops2990:
Thanks for this

[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Links are dead for me. Any chance of a re up?
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
The sense 4 roms on the rezound do feature scrolling wallpaper and the sizing is perfect. Also the sizing is perfect for those who use a landscape homescreen.
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
The links in my signature should still be working though.
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
I know those still work. I wanted the download.
[HTC Rezound] jeph0r3:
just wanted to say thanks for these Wallpapers. I love the ones featuring water and ocean. And anything with a dock in it. I've got several of these and they look great on Sense 4 Roms!!

Thanks again!!
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
I have lots of those there. :) Adding more all the time.
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
I have them zipped up finally. Here is a direct link: http://www.euphoricarythmia.com/HDWallpaper.zip

I'll keep updating the .zip file and the thread(s) regularly.
[HTC Rezound] thunderbread:
So do I just flash the zip and get the wallpapers?
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
Flash the zip? No, download it to your computer, unzip it, and put it on your SD card in the pictures or wallpaper directory. There are tons of wallpapers.
[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
Thanks for the zip. Beats downloading them all individually. And now for your information/enjoyment: When you unzip them on your computer, make sure to specify a folder, and not just unzip them to your desktop. It makes one hell of a mess out of the desktop, and takes roughly 2 hours to move them all into a folder. What is there, like 750,000 images? :D:D:D

Baldilocks, thanks again for taking the time to put these together, and zipping them up.
[HTC Rezound] Baldilocks:
LOL.

There are several hundred at least. :)

And you are welcome.

[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
Quite the necromancy on this thread, uncertain if Baldilocks will answer soon as he seems to have moved on to the Galaxy S4 at this time.

In the meantime, I'd also suggest looking up the website "Wallbase" or grabbing the app in the Play Store. There is a large HD pictures selection on there.

How to turn off the shutter sound on Camera Zoom FX?

I've renamed the system/media/ui/camera_click.ogg to cameraclick (no ogg)

So the sound shouldn't be played! So why isn't the shutter sound still exists on both stock camera & Camera Zoom FX? :'(
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] live4nyy:
If you have Root Explorer you can "zip" the file for backup purposes and then delete the file from that location (system/media/ui). The zip file will be located in sdcard/SpeedSoftware/Zip.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlillard:
I solved this by replacing the shutter sound with the key click sound. Just copy the file.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] umanganand:
Hello ,

You can temporarily put the phone on mute by using the Android Notifications Bar and then clik the photo at any resolution.

There will be no shutter sound. This alternative can be used as a quick step for taking silent photos.

Do remember to turn the phone sound on from notifications bar.

cheers,

Just rename System/media/ui/Shutter.ogg

any way we can get more subgroups for the view? I have a feeling the development thread will get cluttered with questions and general talk
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] contradude:
going to say that we push all of those over the flyer general section. this is like the evo3d cdma section. Dev stuff only.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
couldn't agree more, though to be fair to you guys I do think Flyer and Evo View should be the main forum title. Except during the disruptive upgrade period for honeycomb there in not very much device specific discussion that takes place and I would hate to see the useful information fragmented across multiple forms.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Whiskey103:
Oke guys, spread the word if you see it.

But i think its wise to start using prefixes [View] and [Flyer] in general section.

Since we dont have a separated Q&A.

So [Q][View] and [Q][Flyer] in General section will do.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
So we read blogs/articles/magazines/web sites that absolutely rave about the Transformer Prime and have nothing negative to say then we get real world users that do nothing but complain about everything you could possibly think of so the question is.

A.) Did the company's that reviews these get a souped up turbo charged version of the Prime and everyone else got a dumbed down inferior version?

B.) Are the tech company's and magazine publishers lieing to us

C.) Are the real world forum reviews on XDA anal retentive and will complain about anything and everything regardless of what the product is.

Do we have a gray area here in between any of the above 3 scenarios? Something just does not make sense here.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] richaoj:
I choose C
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Braincrack:
I take the the 50:50 joker!

Hm hard to answer, heavy question...maybe all of them?^^
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
A) That's ridiculous. Reviewers got units with bad WiFi. So they're certainly not better than what people are buying off the streets. Also, the media would go nuts if they ever found out manufacturers were sending them shill units just to get better results.

B) Reviewers are people too and all have their own biases. There may be a positive or negative slant to a review based on those biases but I'd guess they're 80-90% objective. If they always bias their reviews, people would stop reading them.

C) There are three different types of XDA'rs. 1) Unilateral fanboys that can see no wrong even though it's clear something’s amiss. There were people denying the SGS1 had GPS issues when it was totally clear they all did. 2) Pessimists that always look for the negative and amplify it without basis. Some of them may not even own the device. 3) Normal people who just want to share info, have no motive in their comments, and don't need self-validation though forum exchanges. They are usually attacked by the fanboys and pessimists for not having a stronger position either way.

There's clearly some common issues with the early Prime's and the fanboys are out in force denying them while the pessimists are making them larger then they need to be. Look for posts from normal people and use your own judgement in forming an opinion on any particular issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
Lets just use one example the magazines and blogs that reviewed the prime said the speed and browsing was blazing fast everyone on here says its slow and choppy and not even on par with the iPad 2 so how did we get such a difference of opinion on this perticular topic?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
Some reviews are very thorough. AnandTech is one of those. Typically, a reviewer spends between a couple of days and a week with a device. Reviewers of the Prime actually commented on how little time they got to spend with it before writing their reviews.

Using a device casually with few apps on it is going to get a different result then loading it up with stuff that the reviewer uses on their own personal device and then using it as a daily driver. Out of the box, even Teg2 devices perform well. A lot of the reviewers really didn't put the Prime through its paces. Look for the reviewers that did, like AnandTech and GSMArena.

The SoC is just one part of the performance equation. For the Prime, the bottleneck looks to be s/w in some cases. I think that's what's happening in your example. And ICS is going to be a big improvement for GB users but it's foundation is actually HC. There are just some things we're going to have to live with in Android and some lag and hesitation in certain functions seems to be one of them. Maybe through s/w optimization and updates Asus (or any manufacturer) may make it better but it seems to be a fact of life. There was a great article from a Google engineer explaining the lag that I'll try to find. It helps understand the difference between iOS and Android.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] morphiend:
you saw how anandtech got a hand picked unit to test. if i were a company id send out the best units to reviewers
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] blaziner18:
what is this nonsense, i see a whole crap load of positive posts about the asus.

the negative ones are mostly people who have simple issues that most tablets come with.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Shelfty:
I think as somebody has posted elsewhere - there are probably MANY people at home loving their primes and not bothering to mention it on here whilst people having issues will want to find others with those issues, generally ***** and moan, etc. It's a biased cohort on here for sure.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] markimar:
I tend to believe that a lot of the reviewers give positive raves because they get their crap for free! It's totally different for someone who pays $500.00 for it. Of course we expect more because we paid for top notch!

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
There aren't that many Primes out there. The number of issues being reported from a small sample set and the commonality is something to watch. It's too early to say whether they're just early production teething issues, random QC issues, or a design/manufacturing issue. Not all the people reporting problems are alarmists and say positive things along with the negative.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skeptikal:
I love this device and have had a few issues with it as well. It's worrisome that the GPS doesn't work and I have had some browser typing lag and a few other minor issues. The reason you hear so much about the negative stuff is that no one is gathering together to talk about what they should do about their tablet being so fast and smooth. :-)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clouds5:
Good thing they'll be only coming out in January in my country. They'll come with QWERTZ keyboard so its probably a different batch.

I think its pretty clear they rushed some things especially in the software department to get it out in time for USA launch. Seems to me like the software is just a port from the original transformer with some added tweaks. Every IT device i owned had some problems at first. If I compare the performance of my DesireHD with custom rom and everything to how it was when i first bought it a year ago... OMG about every aspect of the device is better now. And that only through software tweaks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Max Johnson:
I think it's all about the big rush to get the review out ASAP. Like somebody else said, they don't put 100 apps on it and use it constantly to figure out that a little glitch that happened that time is actually a bug that happens consistently when you do certain things. Like the diff between motor trend doing initial impressions on a car review vs long term reviews a year later.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] swallaces:
Just throwing my two-cents out there but I thought ICS was based on the linux 3.x series kernel and HC was on a 2.6 derivative... That alone makes me feel like ICS is more groud-up built OS as opposed to an OS derived directly from HC. Think revolution, not evolution. Or am I wrong or just blowing this out of proportion?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
Here's some links. There's a bunch of new APIs for developers to write against but, other than that, the only technical benefit to ICS is h/w acceleration. That already exists in HC. It seems that a lot of stuff the manufacturers added-on are now included natively in the OS. So it seems like a "revolution" for GB but "evolution" for HC. Any developers with more insight chime in.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] arcticreaver:
Downloaded thumb keyboard. Seems like the best keyboard for tablets. No lag when typing.

I think the consumers will be harsh on the prime because we had to wait for it and there was much hype about the prime. The reviewers from websites didn't spent their hard earned dollars on this piece of equipment.

The way I see it, we have every right to be harsh on judging the prime. We expected something that works. If there were kinks in the software, fine. But seems like we have some real concerns about this device that aren't just kinks.

Hopefully ASUS actually reading these feedbacks and are going to address our concerns soon.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dakine:
I dont own a prime but this situation reminds me a lot of when the galaxy s first came out. The reviews were overwelmingly positive but once i got my device it turned out to be nothing like the reviews. It took months and an actual hardware revision before it worked ok.

Never trust early reviews and avoid being an early adopter. I want to see how it performs on ics before buying.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] e.mote:
In 2 months, the iPad3 will get 2048x1536 res, and most Android tabs will need to be at least 1920x1200 just to keep from dropping too far behind in the res race. I fully believe that this will comprise the majority of the ICS crop. If you're content with waiting, by that time your choice probably won't be the Prime.

This isn't to rain on the Prime parade. Prime users will have two months of exclusive use with a quadcore. Things are just moving really fast.

Yep, definitely agree!...I was gonna wait to see what else was gonna pop up in the next 6 months and pick something at that time..but am getting the Prime as a gift.

Where did you get this info? I can only find the RUMOR the iPad 3 will likely be released in March or April. Also there isn't anything clear if it even is getting a higher resolution. Yes, most likely it will but this also was the rumor for the iPad 2, which didn't work really out.
