I have been looking for a way to edit already made live wallpapers. All I want to do is use the HTC LWP with the floating colored circles and edit it to be slightly darker. That way my phone screen can stay a little brighter but the LWP running in the back is slightly dim.
Thanks for any info.
Anyone?

I'm not really sure, but u can use apk manager to decompile the app. The only problem is that u would have to do that manually.

Hi,
i've got tones of wallpaper, most of them from this forum (even wallpapers hd packs), but what's the easiest and correct way to put a wallpaper that looks good?
that thing with selecting a small area from the big picture instead of using the beautiful picture im viewing, causes my transformer to show some ugly pixelized picture...
i dont mind that i will have the exact same picture on any home screen instead of this long scrolling all over my screens.
i just cant stay with the those asus default wallpapers that by the way are the only ones that i can see ok.
thanks.
I actually didn't knew that there is another way... I'll be glad to hear it... thanks...

Try MultiPicture Live Wallpaper and it won't butcher it like the stock wallpaper placer does.
Thanks!!!! I'ts perfect!!!!
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
amazing!
well, it worked!
but now....if i may ask...
what's the best way to put only one picture (like in the stock wallpaper) that can be scrolled for all over my home screens.
now its working perfectly with the same pic in each home screen or different pictures.
and thanks!
Glad it worked out for you guys.
Thnx was looking for this as wel. Still finding new thing I would like ot change about the way things work but this is again a good step in the direction.
I've been seeing people online that are using a clock widget that spells out the time in words. It is very cool but I can't seem to find it. They also have the same thing for battery levels.
Any ideas.

I saw the app. It's called minimalist widget something like that. Either way it does exactly what you want. Spell vertically or horizontal, fonts etc

Hi there. Lot's of words already said about it. But the main question is still the same - why don't you use live wallpapers?
As for me, any scene's beauty just destroyed on the phone, because it's just too small. But i use lwps for tablets for sure, they are really make it more fascinating.
So, my friends and i desided to make some lwp for those users who do not actually use lwps at all.
The work took about 2 months and resulted in our new app Coloring Screen.
The idea is simple. We took photoshop color filters and photo effects and applied them to the current wallpaper (i mean static picture). The only way to do this was to create live wallpaper so this app is lwp.
We cared a lot about battery use and as a result Coloring Screen has almost no battery drain.
Also we added auto-pan feature for those devices that do not support wallpaper scrolling by default like SGS3.
We added more than 20 photo filters and color effects to easily adjust wallpaper:
Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Orange filters
Day time,Night time effects
Autumn, Winter, Sprint and Summer adjustments
Classik black&white, Sepia, Neon, Negative and more
We also added interactive animations:
Time of the day (darker, desaturated and more constrast at night, brighter at day)
Seasons (at autumn time wallpaper will look orange, at winter time - white, etc)
Weather (simple and beautiful rain, snow, sun, clouds, thunder and frost animations)
Dynamic/Random/Interactive coloring (for example, swiping the screen will change wallpaper colors)
Already available in Google Play
Please give me your sign and tell me what are you thinking about this app? Do you find it useful/cool/boring/etc.
Thanks!
Battery consumption. There you have your answer. No other reason behind it. Oh and memory consumption. There two good and viable answers.

performance. even with a so called 'beast' specs, my atrix can't handle a lwp without too much lag everywhere...

Definitely battery/performance as said above.
It's just sad that many android phones supports Live Wallpapers, but the end-user always complain about battery drain and performance issues as well. I really like the idea of moving wallpapers wherever you go (Desktop & App Drawer), it's really an eye candy for anyone! Well I hope someday, someone might fix this. This is one of Android's most unique feature!

I love live wallpaper, so does evrybody, but nobody uses it daily, only one major reason, battery,bcoz android itself is a battery drainer,so i use multi wallpaper,app from the market,i gives me multi wallpapers, for different screen,n the big plus is it doesn't even drain ur battery,until i get note 2 with bigger battery,i hv to be contended with static wallpaper,im giving ur app a try will report later

Battery life? I really dont understand.
Even if wallpaper drains battery, it's just about 1% of total power consumption (especially in compare with display or wifi/gps/internet usage). It means you are able to use your device for 5 minutes longer a day. It's completely ridiculous.
Btw, as i sad, Coloring Screen does not render anything in background if no weather animation. So battery usage is completely zero. It's behavior as like as regular wallpaper - render to buffer once then do nothing.
But its still 1% same reason why I use zero Widgets. I keep my phone as simple as it gets. Minimum.

WP8 solves this even better, no graphics, no widgets, no animations

bet your phone looks sweet and exciting to look at.......:laugh:....but im only messing about, each to their own an all that. i on the other hand dont really give a rats about battery drain, mines maxed out with widgets, shortcuts, folders, clocks, everything....as well as lwp (sometimes). as long as i get 8 hours while im at work, im happy....cant wait to try this app, it looks right up my street.:good:

First of all congratulations for your applications(like panoramic screen )
Let me give it a try
I hate lwp because of battery consumption but i agree with your statement that if its bad coded it can kill your battery easily
update :Woooow.fantastic.hope to not kill battery and memory

Coloring Screen is different and may be kinda nice but I'm not one to sit and stare at the screen, therefore I don't really care what the background looks like.
I don't use them because of the lag they normally bring. It's not a lot but noticeable.
My next phone will probably be a quad core, so hopefully I can start using them again

Thanks! Battery almost not affected. In advanced preferences category you can even find Battery Usage options that is set to 0.00% by default :laugh:
Memory depends on your current available memory. It requires over 11Mb for java and opengl contexts. But so far as android manages memory usage itself you can see much more in task manager because android do not kill apps immidiately. For example, when you have lwp on background and open our preview widget, memory usage doubles. In task manager they both called Coloring Screen so you see incorrect memory usage by the app.
If you'll have troubles just let me know!
Just came across this feature and thought of letting you guys know.
While changing lockscreen wallpaper i saw this "travel wallpaper" option for lockscreen wallpaper and it looks cool. YOu people should give it a try.
goto settings-> my devices->display->wallpaper->lockscreen
You have just been amused and excited. So yeah, like many other people saw it.

I like this feature. But I have limited data, and this uses quite a lot. If there was an option to update only on Wi fi I would leave it on. But as there isn't it's not worth the data consumption for me
