before anyone gets real nasty, I will just mention it... wrong section...Q&A is where you wanted to post
also the [REQ] tag is to request development, e.g. add OCR mode to Camera
but in answer to your question
yes... you can install Live Wallpapers found on the market
NB OCR in Camera was just off the top of my head, standalone apps on Market so no point

aslong as your phone has build.prop sdk=7 youll see livewallpapers in the market, most 2.1 roms have this in build.prop so just search
and might i suggest a wallpaper, LWP NexusMod <-- best one, but on the G1 might lag quite a bit

thats how ive gotten sofar with my milestone
glad i was one of the first to push the telus phone to root
and its all due to my lack of sleep!
btw live wallpapers on the stone = i never wanna enable them on my dream again ahahah
I need a favor...
Just updated to CM 5.0.7 (sadly my backups were corrupt) and for some reason i can't find this on the market anymore...
Can someone else either search for it?
...If its there and i can't find it ... WTF
And if anyone has that app backed up... I would greatly appreciate a download link
Found it for anyone who wants it...
http://www.4shared.com/get/220807151/c2009bdb/comkalicinscywallpaperstarfiel.html
Thanks was looking for it as well and couldnt find it.
This wallpaper kinda sucks. It looks cool, but the damn thing responds to home screen swipes as double-taps (activating "warp speed"). Ifv the developer could fix that crap, I'd be all over it.
I know this thread is old but could anybody upload the wallpaper again? The above link is dead...
Thanks in advance!
So I can't believe nobody has posted it yet, but I have been looking all over for this, ended up finding it over at Android Central.

Looks like it does. I still have mine show up, but they force close when trying to select them. I don't care though. I love this one.
Here you go. Screenie!
If anybody wants to take this and load it into the stock live wallpapers, maybe even add the Samsung Galaxy live wallpapers in it, that would be awesome. That is beyond my capabilities right now though.

so i juss pushed the apk to the system but i cant see the livewallpaper

Did you get any error message in ADB or did it tell you how much data was pushed? Also, I'm assuming you went ahead and set the wallpaper manually.

This is probably a newbie question, but if I load up this APK, how do I get back my original live wallpapers? I use the HTC Droid Incredible, btw.
question to those that have it ...are there settings in this lwp like change background or maybe the color of the eye ..or what i see is what i get from the pic shown

Try this
Code:
adb remount
adb pull /system/app/LiveWallpapers.apk LiveWallpapers.apk
That will pull your old Live wallpapers. Put those where you can find them later and put the new LiveWallpaper.apk in your <sdk>/tools folder (because you can't have two files with the same name in the same directory).
Then proceed as directed in the first post.

No settings. Just the option to save it. You can probably change the back ground though by pulling apart the .apk
** EDIT **
Okay, so I tried opening the apk and replacing the droid_bg.jpg only to find out whatever I replace it with comes up as a blank white screen (I even sized it to the odd 1025x1025 size the old one was even though both of them had large white areas in the .jpg). If anybody else wants to give it a try, I am attaching the wallpaper I was trying to use. It is the default regular wallpaper from the Droid X

I'm a total newbie, so I haven't rooted yet. I don't think I'm considered a "power user" yet, so I didn't want to accidentally brick my phone. I came over from blackberry, so I'm still getting used to this new system. Soon enough I'll be getting my hands dirty with this rooting business.
Anyways, I don't have the ability to pull the original Live Wallpapers... would it be possible for someone else to pull theirs, and post the APK online for me? I've been using "AppInstaller" to implement all of the APK's I've downloaded. Just been playing around with the Galaxy S LWPs. If it's a hassle, don't worry about it. I'll figure root soon enough.
Thanks for the quick reply, by the way!!
Can someone upload a version thats not .apk so i can download it on my phone, im at work
standalone version
Credit to ccunningham83 for posting this.
Standalone version
This is what I did:
decompiled,
changed the package and app name,
removed LWPs that install by default,
rebuilt,
signed
updates:
1)removed unnecessary images too, file size now 1.1MB
2)added Blue, Cyan, Green and Golden eyes!
3)added a blue eye version with alternate background.
4) 7/15/10, added grey version by request.
5) 8/30/10, by request added a red version with black background. No smoke.
6) 9/15/2010, by request added a new red version with the smoked grey background
7) 1/20/2011, green eye with colored smoke
Screenshots:
To uninstall:
Code:
adb uninstall com.android.wallpaperx
APK attached, install as normal.
MediaFire Links:
[blue] [cyan] [gold] [green] [red] [blue-alternate bg]
[grey]
[red-greybg]
[green-colored smoke bg]
Here is a video by myghtymouse19 showing all versions on an EVO:
I had issues trying to remount so copied the file to the root of SD then used Root Explorer to copy and paste as R/W into /system/apps/ then click on the the apk and install it... then youll have it. Also even though you overwrite the default wallpapers, this file is the default wallpapers file with one file added the droid x eye lwp, thats all... so your not loosing anything.
Thanks Britoso! Works great!
Brilliant work guys, especially britoso.
Just adding that this also works fine on the Desire. I just used Astro to install britoso's .apk and it worked fine. It even kept all my current Live Wallpapers and just added DROID X to them.
Hope no-one minds but I made a post in the Desire forum pointing to this thread to share the love!
Thanks again,
Oz
Well it got 4 views, but now link to the attachment is broken....any particular reason, Britoso?
EDIT: Nevermind, back up. Thanks
many thanks to you, britoso! the file worked beautifully
I was able to push the apk just fine to my N1. I'm now running Samsung Galaxy S, N1, and this Droid LWP.

Here is the OP I found it at, I will change my OP.
http://forum.androidcentral.com/motorola-droid-roms-hacks/19307-droid-x-live-wallpaper.html
This app is no longer being updated and may cause issues on newer versions of Android. Use at your own risk!
Description
Font Changer allows you to change the font on your Android device. Some (most likely people from the HTC Desire forum section) may be familiar with an older version which required flashing an update, however these two versions don't require it (check the requirements section for more).
Basically you can put your TTF fonts in /sdcard/.fontchanger/ (location can be changed in the settings) and then you can apply a font once they have been found by the application (inside Font Changer there are more detailed instructions on how to do this). You can also set the fonts individually using the advanced mode. It works just by copying the selected font to the system partition and overwriting the current font. Backup is automatic, although occasionally it breaks resulting in the need to fix the fonts manually or with an update (usually the cause of messing with the fonts alongside with Font Changer).
Font Changer used to only have a paid version for the past few months, but with the new Market changes I have decided to add a free version. While most cancellations happen within a few minutes after purchase, not all do... and 15 minutes is just too short! Plus some people are not in a country where they are allowed to buy paid apps. Anyway, that's my reasoning.
The application should be removed from its settings to restore the default fonts and density. More information can be found on its Market page and inside the application.
Requirements
root
system write access (aka NAND unlock or S-OFF)
busybox
custom recovery (not a requirement per-se, but highly recommended in case something goes wrong)
Reviews
DroidDog
Coming Features
Fix up setting custom website for preview
Set dark/white theme
Rework UI for the font picker
Rework UI for the density changer
Need some icons for the Basic/Advanced tabs
Add more fonts to be replaced in Basic mode
Check font integrity
Shake for a random font
Really thanks for share.
Can't u upload the free .apk here? My camera doesn't work so i cant scan the QRCode. Would be nice
Thanks!

OK, done. Although if your signature is correct and you have a GT540, Font Changer doesn't have support for it yet as I need some information to identify the device (the person with a GT540 who was helping me has gone somewhat quiet and I haven't managed to finish it without his input).

Lol. Allright. Good to know. "None support" does not mean "does not work for GT540", correct? I'll try it anyway so...

1. There are multiple rooting methods for the GT540, and some of them work with Font Changer and others don't. I'm afraid I don't have any specific information on this. If 1 works, then check out 2.
2. The GT540 uses different fonts than the default Android ones. I know which ones and already have the code in the application to make it work, however all I need is to identify the device for which I require someone with a GT540 willing to help.
Anyway, feel free to give it a try and see what will happen.
Tried right now, works well. Looks **** cause of fail font.
Some informations for you: Got 2.2.1 based on CyanogenMod, Recovery 2.5.0.5.
Yeah. Thank you!

OK, your one works because you have CM which uses default Android fonts
You're welcome.
Version 1.7.1.3 has been released, per-user request.
It is now possible to specify in the settings whether the regular font should be used to replace the clock, or whether the default clock font should be used. Some ROMs make use of the clock font, others don't, so the option may not have an effect for everyone.
Doesn't work for me on rooted GT540 with stock Android 2.1 update. I am willing to help with any testing.
I've ben using this app for a while (paid version) and it works very well.
Seems to work on the HTC Vision /G2/Desire Z. Thanks a lot! (Got the paid version to support development)

Hi there. It doesn't work as in when you set the font it does nothing?
If that's what happens then you could try running the app which I attached in this post and send the report which it generates by GMail, or any other method that works for you. I'm missing identification information for the GT540.

So it works fine on a Galaxy S sister device? When I tested a long time ago on my friend's Galaxy S it would cause freezes and didn't allow for the notification bar to be pulled down...

Thank you, I added those devices to the supported list. A little surprised that they all have full root since they only came out recently. On the Desire we had to wait for a while... >_<
And thanks to all those who bought from the Market to support development, it's greatly appreciated.
Very nice app. Thank you for developing it! Works perfect on HTC Desire
It seems that only ttf files are working, if anybody has a font which is otf for instance you can convert them here http://onlinefontconverter.com/
Hope op don't mind that i posted the link.
Thanks again

Just a second. You are giving me conflicting information. Did it say you don't have system write access OR root? Both will never be shown at the same time, I checked the code twice just now.
EDIT: Never mind, I was able to see that page. I'll get back to you soon hopefully.
it said it doesnt have write access. didnt say anything about root. sorry about that
EDIT: it said it didnt have full root. i must be tired, or something, lol.

It should be showing up in widgets once you move to system/app and then reboot. Not sure why its doing that. I really dont have an answer for you, if you know how to adb push you can try that, if not, try going to the miui dev forums and posting your question.
I see that all the us state files are named the same, how would I go about pushing them all as I have family and friends everywhere?
Edit that - i just pushed the first apk for a-g and its showing every city/state. Only thing not working is my location/gps, I had to manually select my city.
It looks very nice compared to other apps I've tried. I'll report back with any issues but it looks accurate

Hey OP what rom are you running in the screen shots?
No hay amor para México? Mexico is left out too.
Hello.
What is the font used in ROM on your screenshot?
Thanks
Probably a n00b question, but does it only work with rooted phones? Tried installing the apk with Astro on my LG Optimus One but it wouldn't install...
Meh I can't change Fahrenheit to Celcius...
For anyone wondering, the ROM in the OP is MIUI.
And MIUI Weather is much more than a widget. Heck, take a look at the actual app. Everything about it is beautiful and well executed. Check out the animations in the About screen. This app is amazing.
Celsius and other non US cities would be nice.

MarkHUK and Co. are working on it. They have the source code and are trying to make it so that database files aren't necessary, and that only one .apk will be needed.
In the meantime, if you would like your country to be made available, post your country codes to the MIUI Weather thread at miui-dev.com HERE.
I thought it was MIUI but it looks like there is an app drawer, which MIUI doesnt have, unless there is an app for that hahaha
It could easily be another launcher on top of MIUI. You aren't locked into using the MIUI launcher. You can use whatever you want.

If you would like your city/country added, click the link I posted earlier, and post your country codes in that thread.
Played with it last night and this morning and all the graphics and weather animations look amazing. There are 3 issues I see besides my location not working.
I can't change the time from 24 hour time format to standard am/pm and the widget/weather has no setting for when it updates, they just do it on their own. Also the widget doesn't update if you refresh the weather
