I've been looking for a live wallpaper that displays what is currently going on, on my Nexus One (like a debug thing or output logs) but haven't had much luck. I saw one on Youtube but I don't remember what video it was. Anyone know of a wallpaper I'm talking about?

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.

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

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

Does anyone have any reccomendations for an app for this:
Code:
every X minutes do
select 1 photo randomly from [ list, of, gallary, albums ]
auto crop
set as wall paper
Preferably where it is smart enough to crop the image as little as possible, many of my wall papers fall between 1024x768 to 1600x1200, so it's not so necessary on a TF lol.

I tried that but couldnt figure out how to have just one wallpaper and not the one paper for each screen. Is thatpossible?
Yes. Select "single picture" as your source. However there would be no picture scrolling. but it does prevent your wallpapers from being cropped/pixelated.
would it also allow periodic paper switching when single picture as source is selected?
That doesn't make sense. If you only choose a single photo of course it won't change. There is however an option to pick a folder and you can pick how many minutes before it alternates.You can also choose to double tap the screen for iimmediate change.

Thats why i asked. I (and the op i believe) want an app that changes the wallpaper randomly. Not to have different wallpapers for each page. Multi live wallpaper isnt what he needs then. Wallpaper slideshow isnt perfect but it does the trick.
I'm not exactly sure if its compatible with TF, but J4velin wrote an app called Wallpaper Changer that might be what your looking for.
Let me know if it works...

wallswitch in the market does everything you want.
you can point it to a folder full of wallpapers and it will switch between them based on a timescale you want.
as long as the wallpapers in the folder are the correct size it does the job perfectly.

i dont think its optimised for tablets to be honest, although their is a setting you can choose where it doesnt crop the image.
Searching market for wall switch and multi live wall paper, suggests that it's near'ish what I want but not quite. All my stuff has been moved from a shared folder to Picasa, and I have so many that I needed 2 albums...bloody 1000 pictures to an album crap!
On the upside, looks like one of them has source available, so maybe I can figure sth out.

Ok guys I've looked everywhere but found nothing. I am looking for an app that simply sorts home screens apps in some order. I don't want one that makes folders. I want to just be able to use the app to sort every now and then and just close it afterwards. Thanks

I am confused I guess. I don't understand exactly what you are looking for. You want an app to organize your apps on your home screen? Can't you just just organize them how you want them on your home screen? Maybe I don't understand exactly what you are looking for.

Action Launcher gives an alphabetical list similar to windows phone.
If I understand correctly, you want an equivelant to the windows shortcut for "sort by name/type/date modified" for your homescreen, or for your appdrawer.
I echo the thoughts of others in asking why. It's not like your homescreen can accumulate dozens of apps the same way a desktop can pick up dozens of shortcuts, or that they are difficult to get rid of or sort yourself. Folders work fine... also, there are widgets such as Glovebox and CircleLauncher which will allow you to create live groups of self-hiding icons.
but Android is an open OS, so the simple answer is, if there's something you want that doesn't exist, just build it yourself. this, however, seems to be something that would be at the launcher level, not the level of a widget or app.
Exactly. But for people like me who hate using app drawer I think there should be some kind of stock setting

Hey folks.
So I have this weird problem where my wallpaper won't centre properly. It looks fine on the preview but when it's set it looks zoomed in and and a little off centre to the right.
I'm rooted and using Nova Launcher Prime as well but these issues were there before that anyway.
Anyone have any thoughts or a work around? It's only mildly annoying and not a huge deal but I'm a bit of a perfectionist so I'd like to get it sorted.

How are you setting the wallpaper? Are you going into your actual S6 settings, then wallpaper? or are you long pressing the home screen and using Nova to set it?
I've noticed this too, wallpaper sets like it should on lock screen but on home screen it's zoomed and moved down..
Also I noticed this is a problem with a nova launcher..
Samsung screws with the cropping to implement the dynamic perspective feature in the default launcher.
Add a border of 10% around the image you want to set and then try again. May need to play with it a bit depending on the launcher. Works for GNL. For example, if your image is 2000x2000 pixels, add a border to make it 2200x2200. I use the "Fit" feature of this app to do it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.iudesk.android.photo.editor
I think I found the issue. I turned off wallpaper scrolling in Nova settings and the wallpapers seem to centre correctly now.

Had a similar problem using ADW Launcher, and disabling the wallpaper hack (system>adv settings) fixed the problem. I believe it's off by default but I restored a backup after a format.
Anyway, just wanted to say thanks to ThatChinskiGuy for pointing me in the right direction.
