I played around and made a nexus with black background and water with new wallpaper.
Install as normal apk, or use push by adb.
Root required, Use an filemanager (or adb) to rename the old Livewallpaper.apk to Livewallpaper.apka or so.
Code:
adb shell mount /system
adb push Livewallpaper.apk /system/app

tha Doc does it again !
Pretty cool, Doc. Didn't like being installed as a normal .apk for me. It took with a push to /system/app. Both times, though, my phone rebooted itself. It could be because I'm running out of space....probably time to thin down or apps2sd the thing. At any rate, I like them much better than stock.
Thanks DR!
instant reboot when installed via intaller
edit only works when you push via adb
nice job
I can't get to install.
Using terminal on mac, i adb pushed and got this error:
" Kinjutsu$ ./adb push LiveWallpapers.apk /system/app
failed to copy 'LiveWallpapers.apk' to '/system/app/LiveWallpapers.apk': Read-only file system"
And using astro file manager, when i try to install as apk, the only options it gives are uninstall and launch. It gives an error when trying either.
amazing job doc! the second water one is phenomenal!
How did you guys adb push it line for line? I keep getting push errors and I'm not sure why.
Would we be able to rename this something else & push it to /system/app? I would kinda like to keep the original one cuz I like the gray nexus background
Hey Doc, are those live wall papers working on GDE? It looks to me like you have GDE there with the nexus theme...... i hope so...
i adb pushed it while in recovery i put the file in my tools folder opened the command prompt pushed rebooted and nothing changed im on cyanogenmod 5.0 beta4 er27 any suggestions why the edit didnt take place?
I installed like a normal apk, using eno's 1.5.1 rom and works great with no reboots. This is some sick stuff man can wait to see more.
wheres the old live wallpaper incase we want to go back?

back up the .apk off your phone prior to installing, or just grab that .apk from pretty much any ROM.

Its not perfect tho..
Installed like a normal apk without a reboot and it worked just fine. Thanks
Edit: my phone did one of its random reboots a little while after installing this and when it rebooted the original apk was reapplied. Weird.
There is actually a live wallpaper in the market called Live Waterpaper that basically does the ripple effect but on any picture you choose. It can also create waves when you tilt the phone!
I don't mean to undermine your work though, which is awesome and that black nexus one is fantastic. I always liked the Nexus live wallpaper but the grey was a little bland.
Incidentally, I tried to download on the phone and move it with root explorer and it moved ok but then none of the wallpapers from it showed up, even on reboot. I did it with adb push and that was fine.
I tried installing it through app installer.. Unsuccessful !!
tying to use "adb" comand not working.. i get "list of devices attached"
its awesome dude!
Its not installing... cant u just make a new name for it and install as a new live wallpaper?
I'm currently running Cyanogen 5.0.5.3 and loving it, but I'm finding that the cyan color on Power Control just isn't doing it for me anymore. I think I'd much prefer the original green again.
I did a bit of research, extracted Settings.apk from some stock images and tried pushing them to system/app, but it didn't seem to work. Does anybody have any idea how to get this widget back to its original colors?
Edit: Title changed to reflect attachments in thread.
you can find it in one of the shipping roms just search and extract the GenieWidget.apk file and push it to /system/app/

Pushing Settings.apk from a stock image was on the tight track, but you'd be missing out on some of the new settings and features that have been added in.
Attached is Settings.apk compiled from 5.0.5.3 with the stock green indicators. Push it to /system/app

I'd recommend changing the thread title to "[MOD] Original Green Power Control widget for CM5.0.5.3" to prevent any confusion.
Hello there,
I totally agree on the Green power Widget color thing! It's the first and only thing I disliked when I flashed CM5 for the 1st time.
Now I pushed your Settings.apk to /system/app/ using following command:
Code:
adb remount
adb push Settings.apk /system/app/
Unfortunately it didn't work, so I tried installing it with AndroidCommander and again the operation succesfully finished but it doesn't show up.
When I longpress the background and choose Widgets, then Launcher2 FC's.
This also happens after rebooting twice.
FYI: I'm using CM5.0.5.3 with kmobs UV'd kernel (2.6.33.1-cyanogenmod [email protected] #9)
In attachment you can find a logcat, I had to cut like 50% of the complete log because the .TXT exceeded the max of 19.3kb according to forums policy.
Let me know if you miss important info in the log then I'll get you the full log.
Thanks in advance to look into this matter
Keep up the good work! Much appreciated!
Did you remember "adb remount"? It didn't work for me the first time because I forgot this step but it worked the second time after the remount.

yes I did a remount first (stated in my post above). I reverted back to CM5.0.5.3 with the blue powerwidget + flashed kmobs UV'd kernel #9.
Gonna try once more now hopefully with more luck. If not then I'll post a full logcat.
In ChainsDD's post he states the following:

Does "/settings/app/" even exist? Isn't he referring to /system/app ? I am patiently awaiting feedback ^^
Thx for your reply.
Right, you did totally say you did a remount. I'm sorry, brah.
I pushed mine to /system/app as that's where all the apk's are.

Indeed I also tried pushing it to /system/app/ as /settings/app/ doesn't exist.
BUT
I just tried again with no luck Attached another logcat.
Which adb command did you use? "adb push" or "adb install -r" or ... ?
As far as my knowledge goes:
- push = copies the files
- install = copy+install right? The parameter -r stands for "reinstall" when the .apk already exists.
Could you provide the exact command you typed?
Thanks again for your reply.
I know it's sounding complicated, but I just pushed the file.
adb remount
adb push settings.apk /system/app
adb reboot
That's it my friend.
You're right... I screwed up... /system/app...
adb install will install the app to /data/app, use adb push when you need to push something to any other folder. apks in /system/app are automatically installed.
Ok just ran through the whole process a 3th time.. still same issue.
Is there any cache/data/folders I need to clear before trying again?
I flashed CM5.0.5.3, flashed kmobs UV'd kernel, black desire notification bar and pushed Setting.apk again... Same issue.

After doing this the powerwidget, nor Settings is available and in addition Launcher2 keeps FC'ing when I longpress background and select anything there (widgets, folders,...)
Could you please have a look into the logcats I posted? This seems sucha strange issue as I completely understand the process and execute it correctly.. I'm no idiot. Could it have to do something with incompatibility with the other mods? I'm gonna get some sleep now I'll continue tomorrow
Thanks for your feedback.
If settings isn't available in your app tray, then the issue is likely happening when you push the file. Get me the logcat of that and we should be able to sort it.
Goodmorning ChainsDD,
Attached you can find the logcat of when I'm installing.
Thanks in advance.
Code:
PackageManager( 106): Package com.android.settings has no signatures that match those in shared user android.uid.system; ignoring!
This is what I thought was happening. I saw this before, but I'm not sure how I fixed it... The apk pushes fine on my phone, so it's probably an something between mods. Try reflashing 5.0.5.3, then push Settings.apk, then install other mods.
Ok thanks will give it shot as soon as i get home
I flashed CM5.0.5.3 without anything else, no other kernel, no mods, just CM5.0.5.3 and I still have the same issue..
- Is there a specific cache/temp folder that I can clear to become a complete full wipe?
- Could it have to do something with the fact that the 1st time I executed following command: "adb install Settings.apk" so it messed up something?
- I guess I'll just wait for another CM release to come where the PowerWidget will be pulled from and adapted to green so I can test once more. I'm gonna do some more research regarding the signatures thingy. This signatures stuff doesn't affect anything else, right? For example pushing other other apps etc? If so I NEED this resolved otherwise I just wait for another CM release etc.
Thanks for your assistance so far! Much appreciated.
Can somebody revert the colors of the power control and analog clock widget back to the stock green by modifying Settings.apk from Test 2? I'd like to keep all the new settings, but I really want the green color back. I posted this in the CM thread also.

After seeing the sweet sweet multi-touch I went looking and found the droid x dump over on android central. Only issue is droid x dump is 2.1 and i just updated to 2.2 frf83. Can anyone repack or resign or do whatever magic needs to be done to get this out to work with froyo?
Its the LatinIME.apk in the app folder.

[UPDATE 7-10]-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately Daneshm90 isnt able to work on the Froyo port of this keyboard. If anyone is interested in helping bring this to Froyo, it would be much appreciated, and im sure you'd prob grab a few bucks in donations too.
To make the thread easier to navigate I will be posting all new info on the keyboard here as it is posted throughout the thread. AND REMEMBER ALL GLORY GOES TO DANESHM90, THE ACTUAL DEV DOING THE WORK. THANKS DANESHM90!
DESCRIPTION:
The Droid X Keyboard features full multi-touch. This is different from the multi-touch currently enabled on 3rd party keyboards-the Droid X has the capability to hold down shift and press a letter to make a capital, ie it can do more than one key stoke at once like a physical keyboard. Pretty nice.
LINKS:
2.1 Eclair-based Roms:
only thing not working is auto-captilization,auto-correct errors. Dictionary works, NOW WITH VIBRATE!! Doesnt seem to work on HTC Hero GSM or CDMA...
http://www.mediafire.com/?lumzzhdjnij
2.2 Froyo-based Roms:
All thats not working on eclair + can't type anywhere it tries to suggest words, like the messaging body. Also voice doesnt work.
http://www.mediafire.com/?rmqzyo0ifzk
FUTURE FIXES:
• Froyo or Bust
INSTALLATION:
To install this app, you will need a file manager of your choice. Find the apk on your sd card with your file manager and install it. From there go to your system settings-->language and keyboard--> and make sure Multi-Touch Keyboard is checked. Go back to your home screen and find a text field. Long Press and hold until the pop-up menu appears, and select "input method". Choose Multi-touch keyboard. Thats it! To disable simply long press again, select input method and choose a different keyboard. Now you know, and knowing is half the battle
Screenshot of Droid X Keyboard by Andonnguyen. &Amp has been fixed in the apk, but not in this image.
================****UPDATE 8/13/10****
Ok all you multi-touch fanatics...invisiblek over on the incredible forum has ported this to work on a variety of roms, including CM6. Find instructions and DL the files here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=753156
If you dont know ADB well, as I dont, you will be able to install this through Root Explorer, the excellent root only file manager. Basically to do this just DL the files, copy them to the appropriate places (LatinIME.apk goes in system/app, libjni_latinime.so goes in system/lib). Be careful as the .so file sometimes DL's as a .txt file, and needs to have both the extension and file name renamed to be correct before installing. It is also a great idea to rename your original LatinIME.apk to something like LatinIME.apk.bak, as well as the lib file, in case anything F's up. As a matter of fact it may even be a good idea to do a Nandroid BU, because you never know what might happen, and its prob been a while hasnt it...
Ok, so you copied them in the right places, now press and try to install your new LatinIME.apk. The first few times I tried to install this, it didnt work. However after remounting my /system as Read Only inside Root Explorer the install worked.
Thanks Invisiblek! Send this guy some donations if you can, we've been waiting for a long time on this one.
Mm, does the keyboard work on a Nexus One that's still running on 2.1, I wonder? Going to give it a try.
Here try this. Its working for me on cyan 5.0.8 on a 32a magic. I just removed the shared uid and resigned with testkeys.
Link
Brilliant, you're a gem. Thank you. Works perfectly.
doesn't work with MCR r18 (FRF72). It installs but force closes once you try to select it.
Will try when MCR r19 (FRF83) hits but I doubt that will work either.
K can u gimme the log ? thnx
Also from ur current build can u gimme ur libjni_latinime.so which can be found under /system/lib/
not the most advanced user here... tell me what to do and I'll do it.
Ok you have adb working right ?
K go start -> cmd -> adb logcat
now leave that window open and try to open swype on ur phone. Then right click the log window click select all, then press enter. Paste in this thread wht u have.
As for the lib its just adb pull /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so <wherever on ur pc>
Cant do that right now... at work. I can when I get home in a few hours.

I dunno if this makes a difference or not, but i completely removed the stock keyboard before installing this, i never use the stock keyboard.
These r the steps to do so
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/LatinIME.apk
adb shell rm /data/dalvik-cache/*Latin*
adb shell rm /cache/dalvik-cache/*Latin*
adb uninstall com.android.inputmethod.latin

Hey guys. First off, I want to thank Darch for his time and dedication he's put into getting us 2.2! You're awesome xD
Second: This theme is NOWHERE near complete yet. I spent quite a few hours today figuring stuff out as I went along, and it is still a work in progress. This means the theme is not complete yet. So don't whine about how some stuff isn't themed yet. I know
Currently all that is partially themed in the framework-res.apk. This means that your taskbar, along with certain controls will be themed. I'd also like some tips on editing .9.png's.
Install instructions:
1. Backup your current ROM! Either Nandroid or backup your framework-res.apk file.
2. Unzip the attached file.
3. adb push the framework-res.apk to your phone.
4. adb push the services.jar to your phone.
Code:
adb remount
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
adb push services.jar /system/framework
adb reboot
OR
If you have ClockWorkMod Recovery installed, you can flash the zip as normal (my signing script is broken).
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
That's actually pretty slick. Isnt the real cyanogen supposed to be adopting the hero for froyo?
Froyo White Clock
Push the attached to your /system/framework folder to switch the clock, permanently, to white.
*Remove the .zip extension from the attached file. It is NOT a zip file, extension changed to allow for uploading to forum.

Hey mrinehart,
I was just wondering if there is a update for this theme coming up for the newest 2.2 release.
To anyone who's wondering about an update on this: I'll release an update when a more "final" version of CyanogenMOD is done for us. I don't want to have to keep constantly updating it to match up with the frameworks
Would it be possible to get the task-bar for CM6 Test 4?
This would really look amazing paired with touchwiz, the stock
android seems kinda bland.
Anyways I hope to see more wonderful things soon.

Thank you,
Ok, in the first post I posted an updated theme that will work with CyanogenMOD 6.0.0 Enjoy.
New port. It's the LiveWallpapers.apk from Nexus S, the ORIGINAL. Very smooth and zero problems. Had to decompile and fix some lines.
Back up and Delete your original LiveWallpapers.apk Then Push to /system/app with the usual permissions. Enjoy.

1 Problem
I did the backup
Then using root explorer copied that apk from my sdcard folder to my system/app and rebooted but it doesn't work!
I have a rooted N1 with the latest froyo build.
Update 1: I also tried to install that apk package directly from the system file and it says "Parse error" There is a problem parsing the package"??
Update 2: Also tried push via ADB but still no dice

I didn't get it to install too, I think he forgot to edit the manifest for froyo like with the microbes wallpaper.
Try this normal apk, created from the OP's port.
Oh yes, my build.prop has the sdk set to 9, thats why i didnt notice it. Adding to OP when i get to the comp. Its not intended to install like a normal apk.
New version with a lot of fixes:
manifest edited to sdk 8(2.2), cleaned a bunch of lines related to the other LWPs
deleted unnecesary files from raw and xml folders
optiPNG applied to reduce size
classes.dex cleaned
package name changed to com.android.nexuss
signed and installable. Thats all.
Can I install this without having root access?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Last version works with unrooted phones(supporting LWPs) without problems.
Thanks alot works perfect on desire.
