Motorola Droid X2 :: Setting A Picture As Wallpaper?
Feb 1, 2012
I have a tiny picture 125 x 124 2.32KB that I wanted to use for wallpaper, but when I try to set it as such it becomes so huge and distorted on the screen. So what do I need to do to use it as wallpaper, or is it because it's such a tiny picture to begin with that I will be unable to use it for wallpaper?Ok, I see that I can upload a picture here, so here's the picture I wanted to use for my wallpaper.
I took a cute pic of my dog with my phone. I wanted to set it as the wallpaper. I went to the gallery, chose the pic and then set as wallpaper. This lovely orange box pops up to select an area of the pic, but I am unable to resize the box to encompass the majority of the pic. I can get it to resize to approx. the size of a postage stamp, but nothing any larger than that.
I did try to edit the size of the pic and start over, and have tried several different sizes, but they all have pretty much the same result.
I am trying to create a picture of multiple images so when I switch to one of the other home pages I have a new image as the background picture. Does anybody now what size the individual images have to be? inches..pixels?
Camera no longer has picture in picture showing recently taken photo. Have to leave then go to gallery to view. Lots of simple friendly feature gone like this. Evan
OK, this is probably my dumb question for the day. How do I copy a specific wallpaper from my computer onto my RAZR MAXX and have it show up when I go to my wallpaper on my phone? I thought there was a wallpaper folder. I just can't seem to find it on my phone. What am I missing/overlooking?
I have downloaded some images I would like to use as wallpaper. However, no matter what I do the image is always too large and only a section of it shows as wallpaper
I am having a problem with the wallpaper switching back to the default. I change it it to one from my gallery and when I put the phone to sleep it and wake it back up it switches to the default red and black wallpaper. Anyone else having this issue. What can I do to fix it? I really don't like the red and black one that came with the phone. Did a battery pull and it starts with the right wallpaper then switches back to the default one.
What's the wallpaper size/ratio for the Razr M? I'm moving from a D2, and I noticed that the wallpaper on the M doesn't scroll, so I'm assuming the size/ratio is different.
Happens now at least once a day. I open the phone and there is the old red wallpaper in place of my chosen image.
Yesterday it would not let me change it back. I'd do the wallpaper selection routine and pick one of the other stock images, say set wallpaper and when I'm done the old red is still there. Then all of a sudden a few hours later it decides to let me change the image.
I was messing around with my phone and now I cannot remember how I got my applications homescreen wallpaper different.. I hate it and need to change it but cant figure out where I found it.
Got my hd maxx on the first day of release. Quite happy with everything except that I find the wallpaper is totally still not like other android phones. I checked the razr maxx with the same 4.0.4 in verizon store. It has normal launcher with panning homescreen.
However with our Maxx's in hand and it's massive battery ready to take on the challenge I'm looking to discover new and cool Live Wallpaper. Please post which Live Wallpaper you are using.
On the Droid Razer, I can change the wall paper quite happily, however, I can't have the wall paper and the lock screen as two different wall papers, can this be looked into
I'm need help in changing my avatar on my Blackberry Torch. I can only use the pre set ones. I've downloaded a picture to my phone. It goes in my pictures, under the avatar icon. can click on it but won't save as bbm icon.
I just received a brand new Torch 9810. I want to use a picture that is on my media card as the wallpaper. I have followed the prompts in the device and come up an error that states: java.lang.NullPointer Exception. The background subsequently turns black. How do I get it to display the picture. I have never had a problem with any other Blackberry device in this regard.
when i set the wallpaper, it zooms in and you can barely see any of the picture. Before we upgraded the software, we used 'Wallpaper Set And Save' and that sorted it niceley but now that doesn't seem to work with Android 2.1.
I'm having issues with a wallpaper saved from the gallery. Most of the times it will stick, but about 20% of the time the default red circuit board wallpaper will return. Phone is still functional and if I put it to sleep then reawake, most of the times my gallery wallpaper will return. Really odd. Happens sometimes right after I save a new wallpaper or sometimes later that day after multiple "wake ups".
I was thinking of locating the default wallpapers and placing my pics in there, but if I pick one of the other stock wallpapers, it has done it there, too. Right back to the default circuit board.
So, for the first time since I got it, I tried setting some new wallpapers, see if maybe there's something that'd look nice. But then presented itself a problem: when I set a wallpaper, the upper and lower edges of the screen remained a blurry sort of thing, the same colour as the default background of the theme (in my case, it was the Golden Business). My question is whether this can be disabled? I searched, and I couldn't find.Also, writin' this on my Nokia E72 right now (yeah, advertising Nokia's product on their own site).
live wallpaper called cosmic flow was very attractive and why i dont have it on my ray ? where to get tht thng ? i only see tht lwp on xperia S how to get tht on my phne ?
How do i switch the wallpaper so that it doesn't scroll when i flip thru my home screen panels? I think i had it set like that before the update but can't remember how. Also how do i keep the picture I want to use for my wallpaper from zooming in when i set it as my background? It displays perfectly when I view it in the gallery but magnifies absurdly when i set it to wallpaper.
Whenever I set a wallpaper on my Moto X while using Nova the buttons are in a black bar and it looks like they aren't "on screen." But setting a wallpaper while on the Google Now launcher resolves this problem. It's kind of annoying to have to switch launchers just to change a wallpaper.
I've notice when setting 1440 x 2560 images it seems to zom on the image ever so slightly once set .Is there a reason why it doesn't set the full image as wallpaper ?
I have taken pictures with my new Wildfire and I want to set one of them as my phone's wallpaper. However, my phone won't let me set my photos as wallpaper unless I severely crop them. I want to use a whole picture as my wallpaper, not just a small portion of it. Can anyone tell me how to set my whole photo as the wallpaper, please? I don't understand how my phone won't let me set a picture that I took with my phone's camera as its wallpaper without cropping it. It is the same with pictures I downloaded. I'm only able to use full pictures if they were already installed in the phone when I bought it.
I've got a Motorola Droid with Verizon and I noticed that my picture ID files are grainy and gross. Anyone know the true pixel size of those, as they display on the screen? I tried using the wallpaper dimensions, but it's still re-sizing the images.
Recently i plugged in my Droid 4 to try and put some pics from my computer to my phone. Before i've done this without any problems but now whenever i plug my droid into my computer the option that appears is the task bar that says USB mass storage, Charge only, etc. is gone and no computer i plug it into recognizes the phone. I've tried multiple cords and tried downloading different things for my computer to fix it that i've seen on other forum posts and it never works.
Whenever it plugs into a computer it charges it but that is it. I've turned on USB Debugging or whatever and that doesn't help either. It used to work fine and now it doens't,
