[Q] Wallpaper Issue

[SteveEdson]

Everything was fine with my Xoom, but now when I set a wallpaper, its really zoomed in. This happens when I set a wallpaper from the gallery, using an app or from the browser.

Anyone know why?

how zoomed in is it?

One thing that kind of annoys me, and I dont think there is much of a workaround, is that the wallpaper is set with portrait mode in mind. Obviously it needs to be able to be displayed in portrait, even though most of us use it primarily in landscape (some of us locked in). The end result is that the "center" of the picture ends up more towards the top, because the bottom is "anchored" and the top is nowhere to be seen because its waiting for you to be in portrait, leaving about 1/4-1/3 of the picture cut off.

If that is the case for you, the only thing I could think of would be to edit the picture and add some extra space on top until it centers correctly.

i crop it in landscape in the gallery and adjust the crop box so it has as the entire image in it (they're xoom specific wallpapers), I set the image and go to the home screen but the wallpaper is as if the crop box has been scaled down and centred in the middle of the image

I have had this happen with other devices but it remedied itself, try reboot, set a live wallpaper, clear cache and dalvik cache, and set the wallpaper again (not necessarily in that order) .

How do I do this on a unrooted xoom?
