post your fave live wallpaper

thought i would start up a thread, since i didn't see one up in the first six pages...
past faves = starfield, earth live
current fave = waves wallpaper. little floaty boat that moves depending on how i hold the phone, on constantly moving waves, with little dolphins, planes, and more background animation. probably heavier on the battery than some others, but i like it enough i'm going to keep it a while

andwobble ftw lol

do i need to answer

Been using Earth Live for the longest time. I am on NexusMod currently.
I have been alternating those two for now.

I've always like the Nexus Live wallpaper and the mods people are doing just make it better and better.

earth live wallpaper
although i use the NexMod Live Wallpaper right now, until the next awesome version of earth live

I really like the Bezier one. Simple and pretty. I find most Live Wallpapers (such as NexusMod) lags the system a little bit.

Too much fun with this one!!!

Caught between Logcat Live Wallpaper and Earth Live Wallpaper. I think everybody knows about the Earth one, but I suggest everyone check out the Logcat one, it shows a current logcat output as your wallpaper. It is fully awesome. Check it out.

seeds of life and the fireworks one. i also liked the waves but it seemed to kill my battery much more.

HeyTalderon,

Currently there is no way to my knowledge to use clear or transparent notification bars with lp. But yesterday, I noticed that it would show through With a live wallpaper selected. I also recently downloaded just pictures which comes with a live wallpaper also.
So download Just pictures. Open it and select your favorite wallpaper(s) Long press it and add to favorites. Then go and select the just pictures live wallpaper. Then watch them shine through your previously installed clear taskbar.
I realize this is a live wallpaper and may use a little battery. Though I havnt Noticed any difference.

Interesting. This gave me a theory on why and how to fix it.......I just don't have the time to work on it right now. FINALS /oh noes/

exactly how i feel
anyways, why can't this be done by editing framework-res.apk? i'm pretty sure i had a clear taskbar when i edited mine. i just didnt like the look of the fully clear taskbar because some apps' backgrounds would show through the area where the taskbar went...but the point is it worked? i only use launcherproplus as well

I'm sure if you rip apart lp's Apk you might be able to. However im not that Savy with all that and I'm sure if it was that Easy it would have been done already. Unless devs are just not sharing.

launcher pro and live wallpaper don't work good together for me. it tends to be sluggish when scrolling through screens.

Do u have a quick link to setting up the battery indicator the way u have it displayed? I've been looking for something just like that.
edit: nevermind, found it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848803

Interesting. Are you saying that while using that program, I can choose non-live wallpapers and they would be transparent or only with live wallpapers? If using just images, it shouldn't really drain battery...I don't think...

I agree on the battery drain. And only live wallpapers will work

[Theme][UI Concept][UCCW] Facebook Redesign inspired UI Concept

Hey folks,
I am pretty sure many of you have seen this amazing facebook redesign concept and I thought I'd make a new Homescreen UI based on it - I think with the big screen of our galaxy note, it's a cool Idea. However, I am neither really good at photoshop nor at using UCCW and right now the problem I got is, that I am not able to resize the UCCW correctly.

I am using Nova Launcher ATM and no matter what grid size I use or what size I set the UCCW Image, it never goes fullscreen. Maybe it is due to the new update? Any hints are welcome, right now either have to use SSLauncher or as a wallpaper with transparent shortcuts...
Well, I will be uploading my UCCWs here and if any of you is interested in creating some UCCWs based on this redesign (Like a themed calendar, music player etc. etc.) would be cool if you post them here. I am sure there are many better themers than me out here
Greetings

I've got an idea on how to share your theme easily with others. Use buzz launcher, add in your uccw stuffs inside, and share. Other than that its free

I have already used buzz launcher but it is too laggy and unstable in my opinion. I can upload the uccw already but well it doesn't fit to full screen so thats kinda bad atm, I cant get the scaling right ! (and also I want to make it somehow customizable for you guys so I gotta remove my profile pic ofc )
I will upload some more concept stuff tomorrow, watched the DFB Final today and I am pretty exhausted now... if you want to have a glimpse at my work with SS Launcher, you can check it out here, with many tutorials and files already:

Good luck with that mate waiting your work :good: btw where that new facebook with the redesigned UI ?

Here is a ZIP-File with the PNG's, maybe someone manages to resize them correctly for UZIP... but as far as I've seen, many users complained about the new update making widgets too small.
The Icons are from a paid icon pack called "Retrofied" btw, made by screenlicious, check his work out:

Also many free icons! I will continue working on some more tiles, stay tuned...

We are working on an update. What features would you love to see?

Font option. Perhaps.

Is it possible to save pictures without sending them?
Congratulation for your work, BTW! Fantastic App!!!

Cool concept! Really loved it but then i have a small issue that when a image is selected, the image is kinda zoomed or focused right to the center of the image! Can you incorporate a cropping of the selected image feature!
All the very best! Im sure your application will be loved by all

I like the concept.
+1 for saving the picture before sending/share it.

Hi @donniemceduns, I really love this app. But.....is this devolopment stopped ? I hope it's not. :fingers-crossed:
Anyway, I just noticed something, some of the emoji & stickers are blur, some are crystal clear. Could you please fix it so that all the emojis & icons are crystal clear just like HD.
For example: ( these are the clear ones )
And these are the blur ones.
Last but not least, can I have a suggestion ? I think you and your team should make a "resize & move & rotate" feature to this app when we are picking our photo. This is because I used to pick photo from my gallery, but every time my photo didn't insert in correctly, sometimes it's too big for it, and sometimes it's placed horizontally which means I can't rotate it. Hence, I can't use this app to edit my photo.
Hope that you look into my suggestion and comments. Really appreciate you work. Looking forward to your updates. Thank you.

Android 11 wallpaper bug/'feature'

I was holding off on updating, after getting the Android 11 notification a few days ago in the UK, as I couldn't see much user feedback on One Hyper upgraded to Android 11. But I updated it today and while it seems to be working OK (with seemingly no loss in general performance), I did immediately notice a bug/feature on wallpapers.
It doesn't matter which app you use to apply a wallpaper, the system seems to take over and crop the image. When you pull down the notifications bar it zooms back out to the original 1:1 wallpaper.

Forgive the quality of the above gif, I didn't want to overload the thread with a massive image. But you get the idea.
I did a Google search and it seems to be a common issue, at least on some Android 11 devices, I saw some archived reddit threads from 2020. It's a shame but thankfully there is a workaround (if a little clunky). Apparently live wallpapers escape this weird bug/feature, so with an app like KLWP you can turn a wallpaper (like some of the 1080x2340 formatted wallpapers I made) into a live wallpaper. Again it works but for such a simple thing, it's a shame you have to jump through hoops that weren't there in Android 10.

Eh, why do they need to do these things. I'm already really annoyed that the lockscreen overlays a color tone over the image, dampening all cool vibrant colors and contrast. When i now choose a lockscreen wallpaper i have to overdrive the colors and contrast before applying it to counter the tone.

is this a bug? I thought it was some new effect of the system, if you repair it well, when you are using the Motorola launcher and make the gesture to open the app drawer, the same thing happens.

Whether it's simply an annoying new feature or a bug, either way it would be nice if it was an option.
Again I'm able to use the KLWP app to get around it, but its a lot of extra hoops for such a simple feature (and not a particularly intuitive app to use).
