[Solved]Samsung Fascinate Live Wallpapers

hey guys i was wondering if anyone has ported them out of the Fascinate. they have like 3-4 LWPS not included with the other galaxy S's. heres a link to a zip i found on androidpolice( http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...ive-wallpapers-leaked-available-for-download/ ) Mods please delete if this is not suppose to be posted here.
Please follow the instructions below to install them right

hehe i got them to work
i will post instructions in a min

1. Boot into CWM and update with the View attachment fasclwp_ap.zip
2. Reboot
3. You will have to install the APK files themselves.
View attachment TATLiveWallpapersSpark.apk
View attachment TATLiveWallpapersLuminescence.apk
View attachment TATLiveWallpapersLayersOfLight.apk
View attachment TATLiveWallpapersForest.apk
View attachment TATLiveWallpapersFlow.apk
View attachment TATLiveWallpapersConnection.apk
Then they should all show up in the Live Wallpaper menu and work
***Warning: You cant just install the APK without installing the zip first, because you will get forceclose errors

thanks for your help bro works great and looks great!

Glad to help

Yeah they are neat, using the DiscoBall looking thing....pretty sure my battery is going to suffer tonight...

Sweet! Lags the screen swipe, but they all look great, thanks for the install info and great find!

clockwork mod aka recovery for rooted people
and no i dont know why the update zip wont install the apk files, but it does install the library file .so file....maybe someone with experience can figure that one out, i am learning as i go

Is this for non rooted phones? I've been trying to get this wallpaper for my incredible for so long, but I don't want to ruin my phone trying to root.

You can only flash .zip files if you have a custom recovery, in other words you do have to be rooted.
If your good at following instructions... you wouldn't ruin your phone if you tried to root it. And, it's worth the risk too.

Tried this on Cyanogen RC3, zip installs successfully, but when I install the Wallpapers they still FC. Any input?

Same here on CM7 Build #32.. Force closes even after installing the .zip

##HELP## Renames adwtheme.apk to .zip to add my own images - wont insall???

Ok, so i renamed a default adw theme apk to .zip to unpack and add the images I want and change the orange glows etc after renaming back to apk cant install on phone 'problem parsing package' assuming this is because i unpacked it and re zipped / renamed to apk.
Is there another way of doing this?? Originally made the theme using template and eclipse / sdk with the adw theme template release package but when i install my app [which was packed unsigned as ive no idea how to go through this keymaker stuff] it cannot be installed on x10 [for 2.2] and you cant use the theme template in eclipse with 1.6 minimum it doesn't work and noticed on github site I got the template from [AnderWeb original] that it needs to be based on 2.2 but will work on 1.6 etc [it doesn't].. this was in the comments when ppl were getting errors in the manifest file, was becuase they set it for 1.6
So anyway aside from confusion I only need to change the png images surely theirs a simple way to unpack / explore and change the APK ??? Spent far too long getting nowhere now and killing chrome with over 50 web tabs and searches open lol

open the apk with 7-zip, and just drag the images straight into the archive - no need to unpack at all!

I'm using a modded theme, but have apks open with Winrar by default so don't need to rename them. When you open the apk leave it open whilst you work on it then once you've added your files just close and install it.

... And don't forget to sign it . Thats the reason you are getting this error.

you only have to sign it if your extracting it - keeping it open in winrar or 7zip your not doing that, so i tdoesnt need resigning

Ok messed up a little didnt create a new apk to work on now its buggerd does anyone have a x10 compatable apk of the basic theme? lol

pleeeease

Might be as well re-downloading it to your phone and pulling it, I cant seem to find the default one on my phone but can see the one I modded.

What you using to pull it, as they are hidden in drawer the file manager i use to back up also doesnt see adw or its themes lol. I d/l the one i had from god knows what side cant find it now. Just goin g to mod a stock adw laucnher v1.1 apk see if that works also because the new version i had messed up alot of themes and not many are updated for it yet.

ahh cant find an apk of donut 1.6 version of adw v1.1

Not sure what version this is, but I do know it's an older one...

thanks.. now saying this application cannot be installed on this phone lol happy days! used winrar and zzip to open and add new images, very annoying now lol.
Uploaded the APK below
'ADW.Launcher could not be installed on this phone'
Would this be because its replacing a newer version? although it gets passed the promp telling me it will replace another app on the phone

Ok annoyd now uninstalled current adw and tried still wont install lol now im stuck with stock hope it keeps saved settings lol
how are you editing the archive im copy/pasting im my drawable-hdpi etc folders in which is replacing the old ones within the archive

When you modify the apk, theres something about the certificates that prevent you from installing a modified version. if u learn how to sign it ul b fine.. btw if there's a stock version u after let me know.. iv got quite a few of them! lol

Comparing files from the older apk and the one you posted, some of the file dimensions are different as in your images are bigger, and some of yours don't look right either, what are the little dashes dotted around some of them...

open it in photoshop its fine. Thats PNG transparency doesnt show in image viewer

[LIVEWALLPAPER] ORIGINAL Livewallpapers.apk Nexus S

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.
Screenshot:

APK attached if the Mediafire link fails.

Thanks for the upload! I know this is random, but where's that Music icon from? Is that the gingerbread one? If not, do you mind sharing it?

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?

Last version works with unrooted phones(supporting LWPs) without problems.

Thanks alot works perfect on desire.

[Lockscreen] Honeycomb Shaped Lock

Here are the files to add to your framework-res.apk if you have a rooted rom. All you have to do is copy your framework-res.apk from the system and open it up in an apk editor then find the lockscreen files and replace them with these. Works really well. If I could get a screenshot of my lockscreen I would show you but I dont know how to do that.

Hey i was wondering if you could post a video or some screenshot of it in action because 3 white tiles with hexagons in them doesn't really give me a good idea of what it looks like.
Anyways nice work

Here is a link to the youtube video and a fix of the ring, I had my photoshop on the wrong layer. My bad! http://youtu.be/UUc1jVc_rAQ

Looks nice.
I had inverted the colors on mine... but the VR theme template didn't want to work for me and I got too lazy to modify the framework and re-flash it.
Question, were you able to edit the actual lock icon?
Because when I open it in Photoshop CS3 the transparency is messed up.
Also, if you have the Android SDK installed on your computer you can use it to take screen shots (even of the lockscreen), but I think a video is better for this.

Aright thanks for the video it looks sick

Yes I just thought that the actual lock icon was not bad so I left it.

Ah, what version of Photoshop are you using?
I was able to open it... but it wasn't being displayed correctly.

i used photoshop cs3

Thanks, work great.

can somebody post those images in a zip file?

Zip file but it is not flashable. It is just a zip file of 3 images.

just to say i might be getting a transformer tomorrow and also i used to do lots of themeing so i can tell you that the images are indexed so you need paint.net to open and save then open the new saved file in photoshop and edit.

these will be included in the metrocomb theme

I can upload the PSD for anyone who would like to tweak this. Honestly I just did this for myself and thought I would share it.

Looks awesome! Is there any chance it could be made as a flashable zip? I wouldn't want to change framework Res then find I have to do it again when Rom is updated..
Many thanks all!

Great...I download an APK Editor, but is this true, that for every update we need tot change the framework again...
As requested above, a flashable zip would be realy great

I dont know how I would go about doing that.

You can save a copy of the one you modified, if no major changed in the framework, just push it again.
Actually you don't even need a apk editor. you can just rename the .apk to .zip, unzip it, do your thing, zip it back up and rename .zip to .apk.

Will Android install altered/unsigned .apk files? I'm not sure the unzip/alter/zip to apk method will work.

I used zipthemer from market to apply these and it worked fine. It makes an undo zip for you as well as creates a flashable zip for you to flash. I have attached flashable zip file for prime 1.9.1 rom as well as ziptheme zip file for whoever wants to use that. 152kb one is the zipthemer file. As usual make backups etc just in case.

[Widget][LA6]Transparent Accuweather Widget

My first thread in this forum. Completely transparent widget extracted from another rom.
http://www.fileserve.com/file/2Qg75sB/SamsungWidget_WeatherClock.apk
Best way to install it is to get root explorer, go to system / apps and rename the existing SamsungWidget_WeatherClock.apk to SamsungWidget_WeatherClock.apk.bak as a backup in case you decide you want to go back to the stock widget. Now paste the downloaded file into the same location, go to the homescreen and add the widget. It should appear transparent.
Hope it helps.
Currently tested and working on cassies LA6 ultralight rom v8.

thanx working on LA4 deodexed too!

No, it works!
I tried to install it on XXLA4 (axlor4) and after rebooting, dragging the widget on my desktop displays an error message.

what error do you get? Also make sure the system / apps folder is writeable. Merely copying the file wont' cut it. I imagine you are rooted.

thanx very good

working fine on lb1. thx
