This is a backport of the Live Earth wallpapers from the Pixel devices/Android 7.1 to 7.0. It crashes on 6.0, so don't even ask for anything lower than 7.0
I backported this by doing the following:
- Decompile the app
- Copy the resources/manifest to a new Android Studio product with the same package name, but with minsdk 24
- Build project and fix errors with AppCompat/Re-import AppCompat to keep compatibility
- Copy classes.dex, assets and com from the original APK to the new APK
- Remove META-INF and re-sign with own signature
This worked.
However, it still crashed on my 5X due to lack of library files. So I went back into the system dump, and found them (in the lib64 folder, the priv-app/WallpapersBReel/libs folder contained symlinks). Copied them into the lib/arm64-v8a folder of the APK for easy install and now it works fine.
Live wallpaper locations included in this app:
- Arches National Park, Moab, Utah
- Garden, Kent, United Kingdom
- Half Dome, Yosemite National Park, CA
- Pantheon, Rome, Italy
- Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan
- Whitehaven Beach, Queensland, Australia
- Horizon
- Your world, Solar System, which centres on your current location and shows the correct lighting for the current time
Screenshots don't really do these wallpapers justice, but here's a gallery if you can't watch a video
Screenshot of the most impressive in my opinion, the globe which always centres your position and reacts to light:

Strangely, B-Reel (who made these wallpapers with Google) did have a page showcasing them, but it now 404s. Thankfully, the Google Cache for it still works and I took a screenshot of the whole page so it's never lost, which can be found here: http://i.imgur.com/Ez8Y5cX.jpg

The APK is a massive 80.6MB, 90MB when installed. This is because it contains a load of models for the areas:
Download for ARM64 devices
Download for ARM 32 bit devices (YOUR WORLD, SOLAR SYSTEM IS NOW WORKING)
(If you are having trouble with this APK and your wallpaper is too dark, try this port)
Download for x86 32 bit devices
Download for x86 64 bit devices
Note that it will ONLY work on Android 7.0+. There is an experimental Android 6.0 port here, but it's ARM64 only
FAQ
- ARM32 (more commonly known as just "ARM") live earth when?
ARM32 support is now available, as the SDK images are now available
When either an official beta of 7.1.1 comes out for the Nexus 6 WITH THE LIBS INCLUDED or an ARM system image for the AVD with Android 7.1.1 and the libs
- Why does the earth on my wallpaper look smaller/bigger than the one in the screenshots?
It changes throughout the day and night. Use the phone for a few hours and it will change for you
- Why is my location wrong on the map even when I've given the location permission?
No idea. This has happened to a few people, some are saying that changing your device's language changes the location also, others not. It might be a bug, which I'm not responsible for.
A note about signatures, trojans and decompilation after the arguments with the Google Camera port:
This APK is signed with my personal signature, and only mine. I personally decompiled the APK pulled straight from the system dump, did the steps above in a properly set up Android Studio install and rebuilt it, copying the original files and libs. It's had no contact with any tools other than APKtool, Android Studio, and jarsigner. It's also impossible to keep the original Google signature due to the nature of backporting. Whilst it turned out that the Google Camera wasn't in fact infected, but had shared a signature from a popular signing tool with a piece of actual malware (which triggered the checkers), I try to be as careful as possible with sources and I can assure you that this APK is clean.
Will it ever be possible to get 32bit version of it?

Yeah, I already found out. So, if google will not release it (I'm pretty sure they won't), then we need someone with IDA pro and decent knowledge of reverse engineering to get this working. I hope someone will do this.
Wow Thanks a Lot. Have been waited for this

OnePlus 3 user here. I couldn't get this to work, force closes whenever I select the live wallpaper.
Just an overview of my device configuration: OnePlus 3 is 64 bits. I'm running an unofficial build of Nougat on my device. I've modified my build.prop so Google Assistant would work along with installing Pixel launcher, Pixel Wallpaper chooser, Gradient live wallpaper, and Pixel stock wallpaper. All of the APKs (including this one) are at /system/priv-app with rw-r-r permissions. Any suggestions? Attached a logcat in case that helps.

As I mentioned in another thread, I was intrigued by Ruvort's modifications to the Asus MyWater live wallpaper over at xoomforums.com and some of the work from similar xda developers threads here and here.
The most common issue with using these modified live wallpapers is that they simply replace the default Asus MyWater live wallpaper, which limits you to having one at a time and causes additional difficulties for Transformer owners since the Asus MyWater live wallpaper is a system application. I have been in contact with Ruvort and plan on working with him to re-release his live wallpapers with the necessary adjustments so that they can all coexist and multiple flavors can be installed at the same time; even on non-rooted tablets.
These reworked MyWater live wallpapers are my initial step into the arena of editing APK files. They can be installed and uninstalled like any other application, however allowing installation of non-Market applications is required. I should note that in order to prove out some edits I made to the smali disassembly files, I adapted Ruvort's excellent work for the beer w/ lime wallpaper and I hijacked his idea for the ducky wallpaper.
Update: On a whim, I decided to check the alignment of the APK files using zipalign. I found that the resources in the wallpapers needed adjustment, so I have corrected the alignment for all the attached wallpapers. If you downloaded and installed any wallpaper from this post prior to June 24th 2011, I recommend replacing with an optimized version.
Update 2: It has been discovered that these live wallpapers have issues when running on ICS. I am aware of the issues and have been working toward a solution (one recent attempt here). While workarounds have been reported, I have not tried any of them myself and prefer to address the problem at its source. Once I am confident that I have things working correctly, I intend on starting a new thread to feature the updated, ICS-friendly designs. Stay tuned...

Creating the Reworked MyWater Wallpapers
The following is an overview of the process I followed in creating the live wallpapers found in the first post. These instructions are intended to serve as a guide to those interested in creating their own modifications.
Prerequisites
Asus MyWater APK (you can grab a copy here)
android-apktool - tool for reengineering Android apk files (here)
roptipng - modification to OptiPNG PNG optimizer (here)
SignApk.jar - (Google search)
zipalign - archive alignment tool (included in Android SDK)
Step 1 - Decoding the APK
Using apktool, decode the APK to retrieve the resources into nearly original form. In this example, the decoded files are placed in a directory called MyWaterDir.
Code:
apktool decode MyWater.apk MyWaterDir
Step 2 - Modifying the package name
The package name is a unique identifier used by Android to manage the installed applications. The easiest package name modification simply involves changing all instances of asus to another unique identifier.
Using your favorite editor (I like gVim), modify the package name found in MyWaterDir/AndroidManifest.xml (com.asus.livewallpaper) and MyWaterDir/res/xml/glwallpaper.xml (com.asus.livewallpaper.gl.MyWaterSettings). There are only 2 instances of the package name in the XML files.
The package name is also embedded in the smali disassembly files (MyWaterDir/smali/com/asus/livewallpaper/gl/*.smali). In all, there are 1791 instances of the package name in the smali files that must be updated. My recommendation is to find an editor that makes it easy to perform a global search and replace.
The package name must also match the folder hierarchy under the smali folder (MyWaterDir/smali/com/asus/livewallpaper/gl/). Change the name of the asus folder to match the new unique identifier selected for the application.
Step 3 - Update the application name and settings text
Using your favorite editor, modify the text found in MyWaterDir/res/values/strings.xml. Rather than worry about translations for my updated text, I chose to remove all but the default by deleting the MyWaterDir/res/values-XX folders (keep values-large).
Step 4 - Update the image resources
The image resources are found in MyWaterDir/res/drawable-mdpi. You can modify these images or use your own. For the purpose of this tutorial there is a requirement that they maintain the original file naming scheme. It is also important to note that if you provide an image with different dimensions, it will be scaled to match the dimensions of the original image. Modifications to the smali disassembly files are required to overcome this limitation.
As an optional step, you can optimize the PNG image resources to reduce their size.
Code:
roptipng -o7 MyWaterDir/res/drawable-mdpi/*.png
Step 5 - Build the APK
Now that the desired modifications have been made, build the APK using apktool.
Code:
apktool build MyWaterDir MyWaterModified_unsigned.apk
Step 6 - Sign the APK
The Android system requires that all installed applications be digitally signed with a certificate whose private key is held by the application's developer. I followed the instructions found here or here for generating my keys and using them to sign the APK. It should also be possible to sign the APK using the approach recommended at developer.android.com.
Code:
java -jar signapk.jar certificate.pem key.pk8 MyWaterModified_unsigned.apk MyWaterModified_signed.apk
Step 7 - Zipalign the APK
Zipalign the APK to optimize the way it is packaged in order to enable the Android operating system to interact with the application more efficiently. The benefit of this step is a reduction in the amount of RAM consumed when running the application.
Code:
zipalign -f -v 4 MyWaterModified_signed.apk MyWaterModified.apk
________________________
The truly adventurous can take a stab at modifying the smali disassembly prior to building the APK. The syntax is a bit difficult to follow at first, but with proper modifications you can adjust the image dimensions, rendering locations, and much more. I found it useful to pull the classes.dex file from the APK, convert it from .dex to .class format using dex2jar, and then browse the reconstructed source using JD-GUI. It is important to remember that the reconstructed source is not a 100% match to the original source code. However, it is useful for comparing against and understanding the corresponding smali source.

Thanks for documenting the process
These are great, thanks so much for your effort here.
Fantastic work man.
I appreciate the praise I've received for this work. I took a couple hours this evening to throw together another version containing one of my favorite lake monsters. Nessie is definitely one of the biggest "ice cubes" I've used for these wallpapers.
It might be worth pointing out that in order to render "ice cube" images larger than the original 324 x 226 ice cube, the GLIceItem constructor should be edited to specify the desired dimensions.
I spent a little while playing around with this this evening, and came up with a rough version of one of my own. It needs some refining, and I'll work on it some more when I get a little time. You need to turn off the rotate with screen setting for it to work properly with the background. I'd like to figure out a way to make the background rotate and move with the water, but that will take some time.
I've attached a screen shot. I don't think I can attach a file from tapatalk, so I'll try to attach the apk later.
Edit: Apk is attached.
Let me know what you guys think. If anyone has any suggestions, especially regarding having the background rotate, please let me know. Thanks.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
EDIT: The lighthouse/landscape is now part of the floating element, so it floats and rotates with the buoy. It has a noticeably different effect, almost as if you are moving with the water instead of the other way around. Anyway, take a look at it and let me know what you think.
Here's my second attempt. This one rotates just fine.
Thanks to you, it's nice.

While I prefer to distance myself from using copyrighted images, the Jaws and Winnie the Pooh movie posters could provide some inspiration.

Good job guys, this is awesome. Look forward to see what else people come up with. It will be much better to have them co-exisiting but its hardly the end of the world to install small packages when you want to change
keep it coming guys. I love those wallpapers and I hope we see some more in the future. I would like to see the duck with a different background.....Thanks for sharing.

Great GUI yossio, Runs very smoothly.
Just a quick question:
If i use up to 39 images, it runs fine on my phones.
But if i use any more the 39 images, it always causes "Force Closes" when i try to apply the installed wallpaper.
I've had a look but can't find a reason why this is happening.
Any idea why this might be happening?
The 2 phones i'm using are:
* SE Xperia Play (2.3.4)
* HTC Desire (2.3)
Thanks.
well i got it to work with 300 images. what is the size of the apk? live wallpapers that are big tend to crash. also, you might wanna play with the settings and see if it runs on a smaller scale. i can take a look and test your apk, send an email to [email protected]
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
got your email. something with the image file names is strange... can you attach the gif file or sen via email?
thanx
After a long night of trial and error this is where i'm at.
I tested an apk (created by irkkso) which uses 149 images and it installed and ran without any problems on both my phones.
I unpacked his apk and used those 149 images to create 2 new apk's using 1st: your LWPCreatorb1, then 2nd: using Daneshm90's LWP2.6.
I then tried both apk file on both phones: Installed fine but when selecting the wallpaper they cause "Force Closes" everytime.
Now the weird part:
i run both LWPCreatorb1 and LWP2.6 again after deleting 110 of the images to leave only 39 images.
The apk files from both creators now work Perfectly on both phones.
Why using any more then 39 images causes "Force Closes" has me stumped
I've Tried:
*Windows 7 32bit & 64bit
*Windows XP 32bit
*Windows 7 32bit - Fresh OS install, Java 6u62, Net Framework 4.0
*Windows 7 32bit - Fresh OS install, Java 6u62, Net Framework 3.5
It can't be Java right? Java's only used here to sign the apk's.
It can't be the image files, because these test were done with images taken from irkkso's apk which worked fine.
It could be Net Framework..... but i doubt it.
Is there something i'm missing here? hmmmmm.
yep it must be the bat file.... i'll dig into it tonight...
thank you so much for the feedback!
Any Luck???
Love what you have made here and the fact that it will work with the newer versions of android. I am getting an error when I use this, where it really messes up the place images and puts them out of sequence. Any idea what is going on with this? I had tried to use 157 images, and am about to test it with much less to try and find out were the problem lies.
Ok so image size doesn't seem to be an issue for me. However I am getting a weird error with my image sequences. For most of my sequences it will not recognize the first image n01 and then it renames the tenth image as n010 and leaves n10 as a blank spot just as it does with the first. I did get one image sequence to work without any flaws, all the settings and namings for the images is exactly the same so I don't know where the problem is.
Hey, I tried installing the software but it crashed right after while trying to run.
I just get an error message when I try to open it:

First of all, thank you Yosso for your creator its awesome.
I just have one issue, after "compile" my wallpaper, install the apk in my phone and set as my Live Wallpaper, I got a blink (fast blank screen) in every animation loop. I already check the files and doesnt seem have any white screen for cause this effect.
Could you help me?
Im using pre rendered images from 3D Studio Max renamed to nXX.jpg

This is the same issue that I am having. If you check the output folder after it compiles the apk you will see that it is leaving some of the number spots as blank jpegs, ussually around n10.
i think i found out the faulty script line i'll try fixing it this weekend ... i'll post the update here
Thank you for fast reply.
Last question. Could I use my personal key to sign the apk while compiling with your creator?
that is working already I just need some time compiling and uploading
Promise, this weekend it will be here
Cool man, I will donate in few days to keep good work.
Animation Speed
Is there a way to control how fast the animation runs, i.e. how quick it switches between images?
Plus how is the new version coming along?

Well it's been a few hours and I manually did "resync apps" in Android Wear.
Actually I wanted to try this on my Moto 360. I got the impression from OP that it should work, right?

Same here....and I'm running lollypop and wear 5
I remember, have had the same problem at the beginning of development, so i tried out something: install the app again and again - nothing happens. So i cant see the watchface on the mobile device not on the smart watch. I read around the www and found out, there is sometimes a issue in the companion app itself.
A possible solution: kill the companion app, delete app cache, delete the app data and open the app again.
There is a config entry to resync the apps, it worked for me.
It's a very cool watchface, however I got two problems.
Even though I have a 24-hour clock format set on my phone, the watchface still uses 12-hour format (1 instead of 13).
The watchface was available on the watch almost immediately, but there is no app on the phone anywhere, it shows up in Settings->Apps, but there is no icon in my launcher.

Go to the Android Companion App ("Android Wear"), select the watchface - there is a cog inside of the preview image.
Tap the cog and you get the watchface settings. There is no activity "App-"Icon in the launcher.
Sweet, But far to easy to read.

- a lot of code optimizations
- a lot of battery optimizations (gives you around 6 hours more battery)

Playing around with wallpapers
Here you go: next update brings custom fonts and rounded watch support - just bought a Moto 360 Smartwatch
BTW: the next update will be the last before it gets released official to the google Play Store.
Just released the last version on XDA Developers.
Feel free to use the app & have fun with it

How it works?
Rotary Feed :
It creates a feed by using what you have enabled in settings.
It gets the information from various sources and creates timeline for you.
I've named the timeline logic as Awesome Logic.
Rotary App Chooser :
It works by using app importance logic.If you are using the application too much, then move it to first page by holding app and dragging onto "+".
if you don't use that much, hold & drag onto "-"
Bugs
None so far.Let me know
Tutorial
Rotary Home Tutorial
1- Touch and hold to center to see all the pages, and while holding, slide onto the page you wanted to see.
2- Slide the clock below to up, to see Feed.
3- The Icon with 3 lines on left top, shows the details of weather.Touch to see details.
4-Touch and hold onto apps , to see options about chosen app.
These options are "+" to increase app's importance and moves to first page. "-" button does otherwise . And uninstall button deletes the app from device.
5-You can save articles for reading later by using the save button which is inside of News Reading screen.
You can see the saved articles by using the button at left bottom on your feed.
If you want to remove saved article, touch and hold onto it, and the dialog will be opened, then you can choose whether remove it from saved articles or not.
6-All the other details and options in settings which you can access by touching right top button on RotaryHome screen.

Thank you,
And i started working on "more animations" thing. I'm sure it will make you feel better about it. Also i'm planning to create custom themes for different places in RotaryHome.(e.g more stylish feed texts or more classical looking border of the pictures...)

Downloading, will give this a look over. I would like in the news feed, an option for widgets/contacts/messaging for offline use.
@doga.ozkaraca : Force close on LG G2 under Resurrection Remix 5.1.1_r6, I'm sad, this launcher seems to be sooooo cool. Hope you'll fix this !
@doga.ozkaraca:
Cant install via GPlay Store on my HTC M9 with Android 5.1 / Sense 7 (device not compatible).

Any clue why installation is prohibited?

Try downloading the APK in 1st post ?
@casual_kikoo: no explicitly not because of what you've written - have the idea it is not 5.1.x compatible (and will advised as not compatible therefore in GPlay Store maybe?)

Hey, i got the error report now from Google. :good:
I started working on it, and that error may be temporary(you can try relaunch), in short it's because of google play services related background process of RotaryHome.
However, if i can get some information about where the force close happened, it can help me to fix the bug.

Weird... I first downloading app on playstore, it downloaded perfectly. Then, I thought crashes were fix by downloading the APK, but no... Wait for the dev'!

it's compatible with 5.1.x, and i'm using it on my device at the moment. I'm not really sure about why it prevents you to install, as soon as i get the statistics from google, i'll look what can i do.
M9 is currently looks like in supported devices list.
And i don't have an option to block countries, so you should be able to install in Germany.
@doga.ozkaraca
Thanks for your fast reply!
I'll keep my fingers in relaxed position, as long as you wait for the statistics of Google
update link for apk downloaders

I ran this on 5.1.1 and yes It is compatible.
This is a port of the Google Markup app from the Android P developer preview. Its primary use on P is to edit screenshots, but it can be used on any image.
On P, you get an "EDIT" option when you take a screenshot. That starts an editor for the image, and Google have included an app on the Pixel 2 builds called "Markup", which allows for cropping and simple editing:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is a backport of that app, with only one modification, the addition of the "android.intent.action.SEND" intent filter. This means that on Oreo and below, Markup can be accessed after you take a screenshot by pressing "SHARE" and then selecting markup.
Usage (large GIF, view the gifv here):
Download
Install it as a normal APK
When I'm cropping with this tool the new image has bigger size than the original screenshot. Also it saves it as a new file rather than giving an option to share the edited screenshot. Hopefully that fixes later on.
Good news!
So it turns out the native library that was limiting the app to ARM64 only is not just used in this app - it's used in Google Keep too. Keep is released in ARM32 and x86 variants (and MIPS too but no phones use MIPS nowadays), so I've ripped the latest library from those variants and included it in this. It works on my Nexus 5 (ARM32) and on the emulator (x86), so at this point I'd say it's global.
The APK is in the same place, attached and linked in the OP.

Yeah that's what the OP says, it doesn't add an edit button
Also, a little tip. When embedding an image to a post, add an "l" (that's a lower case L) to your imgur URL, just before the .jpg or .png. It will use a smaller version of the image instead
It works on my GS4 running OCT-OS 7.1.1 lol
Works pretty damn fine too, definitely worth keeping.
Bloody hell this forum, I'll just post some links.

(Some proof of it working on 7.1.1, it's my test phone so ignore the outdated rom lol).
Thanks
Nice work, thanks.

Works fine on moto g5 plus running 8.1 oreo pixel experience rom..But it would be nice if someone could change it so that after you save the edit it again goes back the share option.coz now after saving the screenshot you have to go to gallery to access it for further usage...:laugh:
Works good on Redmi Note 3 SD. Using Nitrogen OS 8.1. Excellent work!
Thank you!

I'm on a Nexus 6p 8.1 and I can't install the APK because it isn't showing "open with package installer". Is this due to the architecture of the APK?

No, it's a quirk of Android. Open it from a file explorer like Solid Explorer
