    All the specs I read say the screen size for my Motorola Z9 are 230 wide by 240 high, pixels, for wallpaper, etc.

    Interestingly however, if I choose "center" rather than "fit to screen" there is a white border around my .jpg wallpaper of at least several pixels. This would lead me to believe that the "true" display size is something greater than the stated 230 x 240, right?

    If so, does anyone know the true "exact" real screen size in pixels so I can then create them to fit "natively" on centering vs. fit-to-screen, in PhotoShop™, etc.

    What's the real screen size for my Motorola Z9 wallpaper?

    TIA, John

    Re: What is the "TRUE" Wallpaper pixel size for Z9

    .....follow up. In yet another spec I find 240 x 320 pixel resolution, and yet another says 176 x 220.

    I want to know what size I should make my WALLPAPER .jpg files so that they display full size perfectly using the "center wallpaper" display.

    I am baffled.

    Re: What is the "TRUE" Wallpaper pixel size for Z9

    Okay. I experimented in PhotoShop™ and my conclusion is that the "Native" wallpaper display size on my Moto Z9 is:

    240 pixels wide by 260 pixels high. Does anyone DISagree with this or have a "true" spec on it from any documentation anywhere?

    I tried the following trial and error grids to home-in on my final best guess:

    240 x 260 True Pixel Size
    240 x 270 Too Big
    240 x 275 Too Big
    245 x 290 Too Big
    176 x 220 Too Small
    240 x 320 Too Big
    230 x 240 Too Small

    ...... further testing I found a better wallpaper size to be:

    240 x 270

    This size cuts off at the top edge perfectly below the toolbar icons, better than the 240 x 260 pixel size I previously quoted.

    I suppose, if one wanted to go even one step further you could extend the 270 (height) even more, maybe up to the 300 range, but I personally would not want this as then the wallpaper would get covered by the top toolbar.

    Next question is, for incoming Ringer ID Photos, will this size work properly? I'll try it and see.

    Okay. I'm going with the 240 x 275 pixel size for Wallpaper on my Moto RIZR Z9.

    Next Question: For Caller ID photos, what's the native size?

    I see that the photo ID picture is about 1/4 of the full size of the screen, but nowhere do I see the specifications for it's exact dimensions.

    I would like to know what dimensions exactly so that my caller ID photos display Natively, without any resizing.

    Does anyone know the size?

    TIA, John

    p.s. ....I found the infamous "Classic Merlin" ringtone as an mp3 download! What a great ringtone!
