under weather setting .

I set it to update automatically and then when I go back into settings its unchecked. So it won't stay on

different roms have their on/off buttons in different places for the animations. go under programs and see if there is a widget that turs off and on the animations. if not there try the settings tab, lastly try the settings tab on the weather tab.

Is there any way to disable weather wallpaper? (CDMA Hero Fresh 2.1.2)

I'm just trying to find a way to disable the weather wallpaper so my live wallpaper stays on after I unlock if I don't move the screen.
I know 1.5 didn't have it, so there must be some way to disable both it and the call to it, so it's like it was never there to begin with.
I searched, but came up with nothing I could use. I'm not sure entirely how it works, but there should be a line you can comment out somewhere or something.

If u mean the Weather Animation after unlocking the screen there is a option at the Weather Application.
I can't seem to find the option to shut it off in there anywhere. All I have is Update Automatically, Update Frequency, and Temperature Scale, and nothing else. ; ;
Am I looking in the wrong place for it or something?

remove the widget then when you go to readd it, it will prompt you for animation after you select a city.

Hehe... Mine doesn't seem to want to cooperate. When I remove it and add it again, it doesn't ask for anything, it just GPSs my current location.
I tried the other two smaller widgets too, the ones that do ask for your location, but nothing ever came up about being able to disable the weather wallpaper.
This is pretty frustrating. lol It should be such an easy task. I mean really, am I missing something? All I wanna do is shut it off, even if I need to do a little programming to do it.

Countdown widget on Lockscreen

I've been downloading/trying a couple of countdown widgets. But none that I need for. For my job I always have a certain 'time' that I keep track of and need a simple looking countdown widget that I can place in the lockscreen so when the first thing I see when pushing the power button would be that widget. Nothing big like years and days widget, just simple hours and minutes. Thanks... anyone??? Ok.
Maybe check out the widget Evulhotdog told me about in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=749340
Lets you put any Home screen widgets you want directly into the Lock screen. Of course, that means you need a countdown/timer widget, right?
Oh yeah I purchased widget locker and had completely changed my phone. Now to find a countdown to place there......

How do you make live wallpapers work on cyanogenmod?

Every time I try to set a live wallpaper it just goes back to the regular wallpaper I had before, any help ?
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
are you using a task killer when i was using one they would stop working sometimes even if i excluded them but they seem to be working fine for me with autokiller
No I don't use a task killer, it just doesn't actually let me put the live wallpaper on, I can see it when I preview it but when I try to set it the background turns black for a sec or two then back to my regular wallpaper
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
Which live wallpaper in particular? All the ones I've used seem to work just fine.
All the ones I've tried, starfield, a halloween wallpaper, super mario, really ever one I've tried

I had similar issues before a while back. I researched it.The upper end ones have a hard time running, but the lower end ones work. Because of a bug in adw, it will often revert back to default wp. My suggestion is use launcherpro or zeam.
You wont have that issue. Although you may have to keep setting the upper end ones 2 or 3 times. Once it sets it stays on. Just to make sure your not trying to open them from the app tray are you? Because if you are they wont give you an option to open. Make sure your long pressing the home screen, selecting wallpapers,then selecting live wallpapers.
I've been using launcherpro lol and I know how to set live wallpapers but thank for the info, damn I guess their just not for me lol

IIRC, they're already built in. When you choose add to home screen, choose widget > settings > pick what you want added.
Is IIRC a rom?

Can't go wrong with WidgetLocker (it's worth it).
Went to the play store to get Widgetlocker and I get a message stating that my device is not compatible.

I'm running qqlauncher, not many themes or widgets, but you can get widgets else where.
Well any who, also comes with a very good lockscreen.

Hmm... odd thing. Widgetlocker is not even showing up in a search at the Play Store. I have it installed so it shows up in my installed list with the "device incompatible" msg as well. I installed it from a Titanium Backup.

Go Locker is free and has a lot of themes available. I use it (I've even made a couple themes for the market...er..."play store"). And I think you may be able to use it without needing to have go launcher as your default home. As long as you set it up while using go launcher/ go locker, you might be able to switch to whatever other launcher you prefer. I may be mistaken since I haven't tried it myself (I use go launcher), but friends with samsung phones have tried it and can use it with other launchers.

I like that one too.
I like being able to change which shortcuts I have available and have more than 3 or 4. That's why I made my own that has 4 app shortcuts and the home unlock. If anyone wants to try it out and let me know what they think, it's free on the market here:

Thank you!! My LCD density was set at 256. I changed it back to 240; still didn't work. So then I cleared the Dalvik cache and the data from Goggle Play Store and now I can download apps once again!!

I think what you need to do is set the "Go Switch Widget" as a Device Administrator. Go to menu>settings>location & security>Select device administrators and then check the go switch widget.
The stock moto locker should not come up (except for when your phone boots up from a shutdown/restart). Let us know if that's what fixes it.
Also, just as a side note, make sure when you install a different theme for Go Locker that you do NOT hit "open" after the install. It will give you an error. After you install a theme, you just need to select it from the Go Locker menu. I've had a few friends complain that a new theme doesn't work, but it's because they didn't read the directions .
hmm..i can't find "Go Switch Widget" under device administrator.

You might need to download/install it then. The only reason I did is because it told me to. Strange that you didn't get the same message.
If you don't mind, try it out and report back.
Lock Screen Opinion
I would have to say Go Locker. Has a lot of themes IMO and if use the pin to get into the phone don't even have to type the enter key. I just want my phone unlocked faster.
found this cool lockscreen Active Lock Screen on play store.. its pretty neat, got loads of customisations for shortcuts and also a few themes..
