wallpaper

What i'm trying to do is, set the wallpaper using an image URI (no cropping)

I'm a noob at dev on Android and dev in general. The internet has failed me... on providing code to set the wallpaper.

yes the dev resource site says

public void setStream (InputStream data)

but i don't understand it, some sample code would greatly help me.
