I believe out of the box no. But someone is already working on it (see the AT&T System dump thread in the dev section)
Its there, and i believe you have to use a 3rd party app to set it correctly.
Right now, if you select a picture to use as your wallpaper, it crops it to the size of a single screen, but not wide enough to scroll it like expected.
UPDATE: Get the app Wallpaper Maker by Qiang Lui from the play store. This worked perfectly for me
You can also use Wallpaper Setter.

I'm working on a new homescreen set up for my epic, and i've taken a bunch of inspiration from here. I've got my new dock how I want it, but my problem is the damn wallpaper.
i have a .png at 480px x 800px but the phone keeps forcing me to crop it. I need it to be full resolution and not scroll (which i have told LP to prevent).
How can i accomplish this?
(I'll throw in the wallpaper just for funsies...)
multipicture live wallpaper will do what you want

I've been testing that today; but i'm not happy with the results.
for starters, its slow. sometimes its as many as 10sec before my wallpaper renders (which defeats the shortcuts I built into it).
also, the registration is off. it isn't a complete deal breaker, but i spent a good bit of time tweaking the layout in Illustrator, so i want it to be *how* i designed it...
(screens attached for clarity)
Change the image size to 960x800. Wont have to crop.
I ran into the cropping thing when I first got my Epic, too. If you tap-hold in the cropping area, IIRC, you can drag it to expand the area it's using for cropping.
Just drag the cropping area's corners so it covers the entire 960x800 image, and you're good. =)

Hey guys was looking around because I know we all have had problems with wallpaper sizes........I think I found the solution ( not sure if it has been mentioned ....just thought I might help) just try using a programme called multipicture live wallpaper that can be downloaded free from the market........ it automatically resizes any pic to fit and also has options to change wallpapers by double tapping and also have different pics on different screens.......hope I would have helped someone out there........enjoy

No not really, i've posted on here about 10 times that 1610x1280 fits perfectly, people disagree and quote blah, then 2 days later they're back here again winging that their wallpaper doesn't fit.
hahahhaha oops, sorry man , obviously i havent seen it before, didnt mean to steal ur thunder ;P just trying to help
quick question, did you try the program? its pretty cool though
It seems to use Live Wallpaper. Can you make it work with just regular wallpaper?
I created a thread about this over at tabletroms and I also created a png grid overlay that allows you to center images on the screen. Also I have filmed video tutorials over there on how to use these files to create nd center your own wallpapers on honeycomb. enjoy
well becaus i am not a frequent poster, i cant post the link. can be found at tablet roms dot com and do search for wallpaper, thread is titled that. may also healp to search for albertwertz
I've tried this app...it works pretty good but as the other poster said....as long as the resolution is correct...then it's just nice to have and not a necessity.
Yeah ofcourse resolution would count......but yeah its not too bad

any 1600x1200 wallpaper or higher will work just fine.
the actual size is 1980x1408
Personally I have no issue with the image scrolling left & right. It does annoy me though that honeycomb zooms the image and moves it up and down when you go into the apps menu or widget menu...
I posted this solution in the original themes and apps thread; it actually looks MUCH better from a clarity standpoint than cropped oversized wallpapers. Of course, if you're centering and resizing you will have identical quality BUT you will not have a giant black bar across the bottom of your screen when you switch to portrait. If you love switching wallpapers and you use high quality SLRs and such this is the only way to go.

Hi all, having recently come to the Galaxy S3 from many years of using HTC devices (HTC HD2, HTC Desire S, HTC Sensation), I realised I really missed 1 or 2 widgets which were useful to me. These included Friendstream and Calender/agenda.
Reading around a bit, I discovered 'Android Pro Widgets' in the google play store... these are awesome alternative scrollable widgets which are an excellent alternative to the above.
Finally, for those who havnt tried it, Apex launcer works briliantly in the S3 - feels much slicker to me than Touchwiz and has the added bonus of having scrollable wallpaper! (Intall Quick pic from play store if you want to use scrollable wallpaper to install the wallpaper otherwise gallery forces you to crop your selected image messing up the desired scroll effect.)
Hope someone finds this of use, a 'Thanks' would be appreciated if so.
Cheers
Thanks for the Heads up Missed the scrollable people widget badly, glad I got a version of it back on my Galaxy S III.
I will give them a go , thanks
I've been using these on my Desire as I'd switched to an AOSP rom. They work great with one exception. The bookmarks widget always misses the last bookmarked site off. I have to create a dummy site to get it to show. Could you confirm if this happens on the S3?

You can get a modded touchwiz launcher that allows for wallpaper scrolling and also has alternative home sizes if you want it.
Search for it, quite easily

Ones that are scaled for the mobile displays and not the desktop/tablet ones? Been looking to switch up my wallpaper a bit, but the ones I grab off the Internet just don't look good on the phone the majority of the time.

For the moment I am just rotating & cropping desktop 1440p wallpaper in Nova Launcher. If there are more 1080X1920 portrait wall paper I'd like to see them.
Try ZEDGE

I use an app called ZEDGE - you can download and install hundreds (thousands) of Hi Definition, awesome quality Wall Papers - I personally like wall papers that have a sort of 3d effect - with depth to the image - and I found quite a few from ZEDGE - You will find it here;
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.zedge.android&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd
As an added bonus, you can also download free ringtones, notifications and alarms. I love it - good luck - hope it works for you.
If I have helped, don't forget to say thanks.
I posted in the themes sub forums that the correct resolution for the phone is 2160x1920. This results in the most detailed backgrounds. Personally I've found there to be a lack of wallpapers for my taste in this resolution so I resorted to the slightly more common 2560x1920 wallpapers. It crops wide, but height is perfect.

I found a nice website with a lot of 2160X1920 wallpaper for GS4 here :http://www.mygalaxys4wallpaper.com/gallery.php?gallery_id=21_Space&paging=0
Just updated my own Wallpaper.
pics work too; i snapped this one the other day, desaturated it, and cropped it.
I find good pictures then I make the HD background. For best support I crop and scale them to 1920x1920. Then it works for vertical and horizontal screen without anomalies.

Well, to get full HD wallpapers I can only recommend http://fhdwallpapers.weebly.com/ . The site is easy to use and browse, and it's commited to providing only vertical (portrait) 1080p wallpapers for mobiles; some high quality stuff there actually.
If you want full HD wallpapers with the status bar shadow effect (my personal favorite), then go to http://fhdwallpapers.weebly.com/shadows.html .
Here are the official wallpapers for the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S10e, S10, and S10+ in high resolution.

Samsung is so funny, lets hide the cutout with a darker spot in the top right corner of the wallpaper lol
Update: Official Wallpapers released for the Samsung Gallaxy S10e, S10, and S10+ during the launch event.
Here's how the wallpaper would look on the Galaxy S8/S9 running One Ui with the similar setup as the Galaxy S10.

Yep, it seems they are not so much proud of their 'invention'.
Actually it's two steps back in display evolution (in hands with Apple). Maybe three.
I'm gonna skip this year's phones too and stay with the last good Samsung mobile that is the S7 (no edge)...

I took all six wallpapers and put them in a folder and am using Wallpaper Changer to rotate among them. (Why the workaround? I have an S7 (Snapdragon) - which has no Samsung One.) For some rather odd reason, I can't ad a folder to the default settings for my wallpaper rotation; Wallpaper Changer lets you do so.
what about these wallpapers
I'm looking for the same wallpaper from lock screen. They seems to change with every unlock.
Maybe they will be into the system dump here

The lockscreen wallpapers are kinda like LWPs. They tilt when you move the phone. I don't remember if static versions exist.
