correct wallpaper size (landscape)? - Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps

Hi,
I have a 10" Gtab2 running CM9.... problem is that all the wallpapers get blown up and are not showing correctly (even the stock wallpapers)
Tried different launchers but always the same problem
anybody any idea?
Cheers

Search in google Play for Wallpaper Wizardrii,
i use it on my tablet, too and its free

tried it but although better results, still no perfect match... there's always a part of the wallpaper cropped....
which size do you use?
cheers
b

ok this one did the trick
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture&hl=nl
I still find it funny how hard this is... hope this app doesn't consume too much resources
cheers

I second this, QuickPic is much, much faster than the 3D Gallery app. I don't know that making wallpapers "look right" is really on the Gallery app (stock or not), but on the size and resolution of the wallpaper.
Whats the resolution gtab
1024 by 600.
I'm quickpic too. Wallpapers looking great

I would get Quick Pic for a gallery replacement, it is much more functional than any stock version and blistering fast as well. Then get multi picture live wallpaper to set your wallpaper with. After install you will have to choose wallpaper -> live wallpapers -> multi picture live wallpaper to set your wallpapers to display correctly on your tablet.
The best combo I have found for this tablet and my CM7 Nook Color. MPLW is the only I way I have found to get wallpapers to display correctly on any tablet that I have ever dealt with. There is a thread about this particular problem around here somewhere, search is your friend. Do a search for multi picture live wallpaper in the Gtab forums and you will find it. I think it (the thread) even goes as far as telling you the way to modify existing images or create your own to display correctly when chosen as wallpaper when you choose them by using the traditional method.

OK here is the link thanks for being patient....http://www.mediafire.com/?1vhjevbevl74vzy
One more I want to toss in the ring.
Flick Ur Pic.
Get it from the market and use it in place of the Multi Picture Live Wallpaper I mentioned earlier. It scales the images perfectly on my Gtab. You use it just like MPLW in that you use it from the live wallpaper chooser. You can set up to nine images to rotate, or use only one and make it static with no transition effects. This one even has it's own image browser so there is no need to even have a gallery installed to use it as far as I can tell. I do still recommend Quick Pic as a gallery app for everyday image duties such as browsing and such.
Works great for me and this is the one that I will be sticking with from here on out unless it starts causing problems in other areas. LOL
Have fun with it ..... HTR

[Q] Default G-Tablet app

When you search google or any other search engine for the g-tablet, you get images of the gtab with a weather app on it... does anyone know what the hell that app is called? Is it part of tapntap? I played with it for about 10 mins before I flashed Vegan and have been trying to find a good weather/dashboard app (something that shows current weather/news/missed emails/yada yada ;D
Does anyone know? Or can you point me to a good "dashboard" app that has the features mentioned above. I'm willing to pay, doesn't have to be a freebie. I've searched the marketplace high and low and can't find anything that does that...or I'm not searching under the right tools.
Thanks in advance!
Tim
I flashed vegan right after I got mine, and I just use a set of beautiful widgets to make my homescreen the way I want it. It has time and weather, and I have a page just for facebox and twitter. No idea how to take screenshots, else I'd post a few.
That image is the "dashboard" that is the Tap'n'tap UI when not in classic mode. I've never used any of the TNT Lite ROMs which I understand are stripped down and improved versions of the Tap'n'tap ROM but I absolutely hated the stock ROM and the Tap'n'tap UI during the blissfully brief period I use it.

No, the "dashboard" has a weather area, a news area, and an analog clock. However, tapping on the weather area will take you to the pictured app.
The image is of the Tapntap weather app

[Q] Anyone have issues with certain apps not displaying FULLY on the Notes screen?

Hi All,
As the title asks... Is anyone else having issues with apps not displaying "fully" on the screen of the Note?
I have an issue with the "Scrabble Free" game where it runs ok but it only shows the game screen in the top left corner of the screen. It is showing the WHOLE page but it is less that a quarter the size of the screen.
Can someone maybe download this game and see if its that same for you? Its free. And if anyone has other apps that they have this issue with then perhaps share them here so we can make a list of these "wonky" apps.
If you know how to fix this then please advise as well.
Thanks,
Are you on non native DPI?
I am just guessing you could be-
Latest (I guess) Camera360 doesn't run in fullscreen.

No. I have not changed the DPI settings at all however I am running Darky Note ROM... Perhaps the ROM has changed my DPI settings? Everything else seems normal on the ROM though except that in the Dialer for example and in the Task Manager app - the Selection Bar that is usually in the top of the screen shows now at the bottom but I thought this may be a feature of the ROM...
What is the standard / stock DPI of the Note?

Thanks for the info. Would you mind perhaps DL'ing the Scrabble game to see if it does the same for you? I have an email out to EA Games on this but have not heard back yet. Perhaps I can get them to update the game for the Note if needed so that this issue can be avoided in the future...

The stock DPI is 320.
But if you have not modded it the chances are that it is at the stock value.
Nevertheless, install any DPI changing software from the market, they generally show the current value. if you are at 320 dpi then it most probably is the problem with the app. otherwise just change to 320 reboot and check

Thanks for the info my friend. I will check this when I get home from work tonight as I have my Galaxy Nexus with me today and my Note is at home. I will give this a try and report back here.

Hmmmmm... Perhaps it IS an app related issue. Can you please install the Scrabble game and tell me if you have the same issue? That would be most helpful.

I should mention that one of my chess clients also does not display properly. Granted chessboards are square...
It's an app issue. Various old apps have this problem.
For some apps, you can download spare parts and enable the compatibility mode.
If I do this for bonsai blast, it runs full screen but it is choppy.

Iam using Spare Parts+ (Plus), It fix this problem for some apps, but some apps are not made for Note, so it will not fix them , for ex. iGO Navigation
Ibrahim keyboard a keyboard for Arabic language. .. Does not show right. .. Smaller and looks funny. .. ..
Also have some app, not the main content of the app, but just the loading is no displaying fully (Match En Direct)

Perfect Viewer can do this. Perfectly, I might add.
Open the picture you want with it, tap the middle of the screen, go to the second to last option, and set wallpaper as current screen.

Try Wallpaper Wizardrii. I also use the Wallbase app and have moved some of my favorite wallpapers into the Wallbase Saved folder to apply them from within the app.

Sense 6 - missing HTC Live Wallpaper (multiple pictures)

Hi all I have just upgraded to Sense 6 and it seems HTC have removed the live wallpaper that lets you select multiple pictures from the gallery. I loved that wallpaper, is anyone else seeing the same or could someone upload the wallpaper I am referring to?
Thanks.
Yes, it's not there. I still have the old 5.5 ROM backup tough (I used it to restore old Notification sounds) so if you can tell me the name, I can upload it for you.

that is very kind of you. I really can't remember, i know it was in the HTC Live Wallpapers, maybe had the word album or gallery in the title? Why would they remove it, I thought it was excellent...

It is called HTCImageWallpaper.apk - unfortunately it does not work with Sense 6. Probably missing some other resources, so it needs porting.
But just in case, there is the .apk - it can not be installed, bust be placed manually to /system/priv-app

Thanks for the apk. It sucks that it doesn't work, I wouldn't know how to port it so I'm off to play store to find an alternative
Did you find a good alternative? From what I can see, it looks like most of the play store options have some kind of fatal flaw

What features did the HTC one have that put it in such high favor? I've been looking for a good slideshow WP app for a while. These are the best I've found:
Landscape Wallpaper - Good settings. Separate WP for lockscreen. Offers wallpaper scrolling, if desired (good when launcher doesn't support.) Can't choose to update on wake (only time limit), however seems to update on wake after timespan has elapsed.
Wallpaper Changer - Best options for gallery selection. Let's you choose and save custom albums, mixed of folders and individual pics. Can't modify albums. Seems quirky.
MultiPicture Live Wallpaper - Simple, works great. Can set to update with screen awake or even double tap. Supports web albums.

What I liked was the slow pan across each wallpaper before it faded to the next one.
I had a set of wallpapers with the same colours but different designs and it would switch to one, pan across, then fade to the next and pan across... I think the choice of panning left or right was random. It was just a nice behaviour that wasn't distracting but added a little interest, and the fade meant there was no jarring switch from one wallpaper to the next. Also it seemed to have no effect on battery usage,
