A good site for G1 wallpapers
I was wondering if anyone knew a good site for G1 wallpapers? I know a couple of sites where they have wallpapers for phones but when I put them on my memory card and put them as my background I always have to crop them and they don't come out looking as clear as the wallpapers that came with the phone so I was wondering if maybe I'm doing something wrong or is there a site where i can find wallpapers in the exact resolution that's neede so I don't have to crop them.

The standard wallpapers on the G1 are 640x480, 72x72ppi jpeg images. I pulled them out and looked at them on the computer to figure out just why they look so decent and some I've made just don't cut it on the phone. It's a mystery so far.

I make my own ringtones with Adobe Audition and my mp3 and wav file collections.

Myxer - Has stuff for the G1? They need to make more sites dedicated to the G1

Thank you for the other sites I have been using http://phonezoo.com and I am going to look around the others!

zedge.net is a personal fav.

I have been getting wallpapers from http://www.talkandroid.com/wallpapers/ They are usually the right size for the phone and the site is easily browsable using the G1 browser so you can download them straight to the phone, but I don't think they have ringtones, etc.

For Wallpapers:
Free T-Mobile G1 Wallpapers
Sexy T-Mobile G1 Wallpapers
or
Search on Google for 640 x 480 Images
Also make sure you use Wallpaper Set & Save so the wallpapers won't look blurry.

S2U2/Startup Animations

Might have already been done, but I was creating a little file store for myself for any animations I might want to use as S2U2 backgrounds or to replace the HTC startup, and thought I'd put it up here as well as a thank you to all the people who taught me how to do it and created animations.
Anyway - the file is pretty big (circa 15mb) and is stored here - http://www.humyo.com/F/5410591-173182029
If anyone has any issue with any of the images I've included, just post and as soon as I see I'll remove them from the zip.
Also, if anyone knows how to make them full screen, that would be most appreciated!
*Addn* Realised that these are designed for a QVGA device, so here's a site that allows you to quickly and easily resize gifs - http://www.smileygenerator.us/t/gifresize/index.php
Resize it by clicking on the scaling factor bit and selecting 2x
The file appears at the bottom so just save it from there and put it on your device.
Hope it's of use to someone!
Chris.

It will be there in 6 minutes...
I realised I'd included some pictures that wouldn't be suitable for under 18s so to speak, so I've just removed it and am currently 3 minutes and 37 seconds away from having the new one uploaded.
give it 5 and try again, should be ok then...
All done, should be able to download at will now.
Sorry about earlier!
Thanks for the bundle but a good amount of the gifs seem to be corrupted or unfinished.

The coolest thing you can do with your PDA ?

Since I bought my pda, I have found many programs that just make me say wow you can do everything on this thing. But the one program that was just like the best thing ever was when I loaded GView. A DVR security camera program that allows me to see my camera's live on my pda. Below is a link to a video screen shot of my XV6800 running GView2.
http://www.fototime.com/007BC25001E0D05/conv.wmv
You will see the live view including me moving the PTZ camera and then the remote playback by date and time.
Also here is one to Slingplayer.

Spare Original Wallpaper pic file copy for me?

After a strange sync session all my file in phone memory disappeared, including all my notes.
My system is fine, and the nothing was important on the note. However I do miss the included rainbow colored bubbles for my wallpaper. Call me old fashioned but I just like the ones included with the phone.
Anybody got back uped ones can e-mail me?
Please PM me and I'll send you my e-mail!
Thanks!
Which one of these ??

People Tab 4x5/5x5

Yo,
Anyone got a cab that edits the 'People Favorites' tab to be 4x5 or maybe even 5x5 rather than the standard 3x5?
Sorry if this is on the forum somewhere already... I have been searching through the forum and google for something to do this for the last 2 days but can't find anything on either. This is me giving up my search and hoping for one of you good people to help me out here :-D
Cheers

The image resolution has been already discussed... and solved. Try to search this forum. Basically, you need to put the images on your Leo (SD card, if you wish), because the import from Outlook is low res.
I am looking for that tweak too
About photo quality...I have photos on sd card and the quality after seelcting the photo for contact is the same
I have my pictures through Facebook and can't complain about res. Does no one know of a tweak for this? If not, anyone fancy making one? i would but really don't have the know how of where to even start let alone do it...
I think that it doesnt matter how you add photo to the contact, because on the computer the contact photos are in good quality, it is just how the phone shows them in people tab and when someone calls you...
I guess it is something about photo resizing and all these stuff which are involved in raster photos, sampling, resizing....I guess that phone doesnt know to do it better...

[Wallpapers] Custom (480x800) Lock Screen Wallpapers!

If you're anything like me, you're able to appreciate precision...
Such as alignment, things being linear... or perhaps something just fitting on-screen, rather than causing obscure transparent affects on what is (by default) an otherwise beautifully designed, perfectly matched lock screen.
Now, after having said all of that... I'm sure most of you are wondering what I was just rambling about. Well, if you haven't discovered this already... then I suppose I'll elaborate. Once you have applied a lock screen wallpaper, it is then automatically rendered to fit the screen resolution of, "480x800"... which in turn causes your wallpaper quality to typically be compromised if the resolution isn't already EXACTLY that!
Also, you'll noticed that your "curtains" become faded and transparent. Which again, for someone like myself... I do NOT enjoy looking at my wallpapers through "curtains" or "slivers of glass".

Here are a few examples of wallpapers I've adjusted to fit within the TOP AND BOTTOM CURTAINS... which have been fashioned with "black bars" to overlay the coverage areas of your curtains... SEE BELOW! MORE THAN 15 WALLPAPERS ARE INCLUDED!
Awesome thread, thanks for the HD Walls, I hated that my pics look drowned out on this EPIC screen!

Awesome, thanks man!! I'm still trying to learn why this is an issue on the HD2 as opposed to other 480x800 hardware, like my TP2, but it's great to see that people are finding ways around it
I noticed that at least one of the wallpapers you found and modified there (color flames) is one that I'd also stumbled across and cabbed up for the TP2 using HDWalls. I've got a dozen or so others of various styles that you're welcome to check out and work the same magic on if you're interested...some are in the same vein as the ones you have there, others are completely different, but I thought you might enjoy some or at least find them worth converting like you did the ones you posted above.
Most of the ones I found (but not all) are in the following 4 posts, let me know if you want the original images for any of them:

Yeah, thanks for posting those... I'll check those out.
I figured that I'd put these out there because I don't like when my wallpaper is stretched out and covers the curtains on the lock screen.
HD2 Walls
I came across eseth.net they have a lot of high quality wallpapers customly designed for the HD2. I even used one of the ones I downloaded to make my girl some tigger walls for her phone. Good looking out guys!
I'll be making more if people are willing to put in requests for LOCK SCREEN "FITTED" wallpapers.
Better yet, if they provide the 480x800 .JPEG file they wish to shrink down, and have adjusted to fit in between the lock screen curtains... I'll post those as well.
I'll do some more wallpaper hunting tonight though...
Forgive me..but..
Forgive me but..where shall I put this awesome work? Can I put this seleciton on my storage card? If not what directory? Forgive me my "newbie-ness" if you will?

No worries.
Simply create a folder on your SD card that you can name WHATEVER... and then go to your settings to change the LOCK SCREEN WALLPAPER!

Whoopsie, sorry 'bout the 'dis' Reign!
I did download yours too, I just happened to reply to phunkee's reply is all!
I am a glutton for pixel precision. For example, I play FFXI on PC. I play on a window, not full screen, so, accounting for the task bar, the title bar, and the window borders (2 px on either side when maximized) I take all that into consideration and modify the game's registry entries so that when the window is maximized, the screen is drawn to 1:1 ratio. I then set my fake AA (the game doesn't support AA, but you can set the 3D render independent from the window size, so I super-sample) to exactly twice the resolution of my window resolution.
Anyway, that long winded paragraph was to say that yeah, I appreciate pixel perfection and I love what you're doing here.
A little off topic, do you guys know what do do about Opera Mobile (both or either the installed version 9.7 and the downloadable 10.0). Neither draws the web-page to 1:1 on the 480x800 screen. With 9.7, you can pinch-zoom in very minuscule decrements/increments to get the page to be 1:1, but it clears as soon as you leave the page. On 10.0 there's absolutely nothing that can be done because pinch-to-zoom doesn't work and the preset percentage values are atrociously off.
Strangely, Opera Mini doesn't suffer this problem, so I find myself using it often as my main browser, but there are times when I need to use a "real" browser, for example, when a page has dynamic content.
Has anybody noticed this?
Ok, so I'm using HD Walls now, and i've done every step right, my only uncertainty is, in teh config file Im not sure which to select.
I know it's Sense 2.5. I'm using Energy's 21898 rom with co0kie's 1.7 apr 14th.
I get the wallpapers to show up in my HDwalls on my phone, and when i set wallpaper nothing changes, even after clearing out said registries.
i was wondering if any one here knows, i have asked in other threads, how i can get this image to be my background for my home screen and all other tabs. my lock screen/start menu background is fine. i also have a cab. file for this image but when i install it just the top and bottom task bars change to the pic. any help/ideas? i have US TMO HD2 stock. someone else had this issue, and tried to install the hdwallpaper patch but it didnt help. i myself have not tried the patch. thanks in advance.

Susasama, here's the images you wanted, both the source and the one I used HDWalls to crop for portrait.
I don't have my HD2 yet ...but as soon as I get it my first order of business is figuring out how to use HDWalls for this new device. I've asked some other users to share their settings that worked, hopefully that might help in the meantime.

these look awesome. thanks for your contributions. two weeks ago, i thought about selling my hd2 to get a nexus one due to my love for android os. i'm actually liking win mo more and more. it can be just as customizable as the android OS as i'm slowly finding out.
Thanks for the praise folks...
However, I believe some of you are misunderstanding WHY exactly I created these wallpapers.
They are "curtain friendly" designs, referring to the wallpapers fitting within the physical curtain boundaries. NOT to be some kind of "background for all tabs", meaning that the wallpaper graphics I post are NOT even going to touch your task bar or soft key bar.
These are only created to fit within the boundaries of an unmodified lock screen.
Again, just a bump for those who sent me a PM.
Thanks for your interest.
Sorry for the spam though folks...
Do you know if it is possible to use android live wallpapers on the HD2? I really like the galaxy one on android phones. Its just a thought.
just thought tto let you knoe rapid share link does not work
