Live wallpapers on PC - Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers

Hi guys, new to​ the forum, I'd like to ask if there are any methods to use pixel 2 wallpapers as backgrounds on my PC. I tried them on my old Nexus 5 but only 2 of them work properly, so I want to put them on the PC. If that's impossible, do you know any other live wallpapers with the same quality? pixel 2's ones look very clean and realistic.
Thanks

Android live wallpaper works differently than Windows live wallpaper, but it wouldn't surprise me if someone's written a conversion program.

Live wallpaper apk generator

I wonder if it is possible to make a program that would generate a live wallpaper apk? all you have to do is supply the animation of your choice and it will generate the apk to install. I know there is live wallpapers in the market; however to make your own to your liking is extremely hard from what I researched. just an idea.
I would love that!
I think after viewing the document for how to make a live wallpaper its kind of very hard..
I wish they would translate it so that most people could at least attempt to make one.
This idea is very nice..to bad the thread died...
What kind of animation would you supply?
Could somebody supply the source code of a live wallpaper so i could have a go at it with eclipse? (Not the one with sdk)
Thanks

Absolutely incredible work, with them sized for a Droid (and other sizes up to a triple wide monitor). Yes, pay site, but enough freebies to whet your whistle. I've been a member there for 3 years and it's worth it.

I second this....although i dont think its hard, but it is a tad bit annoying. I want like a full packed up zip.
These are cool thanks for sharing. I also made a big pack of wallpapers I use with the Photo Gallery Live Wallpaper that I might as well share. They are high quality png's cropped down to n1 res from a bunch of wallpapers I got on deviantart. The way I use them is I put them all on the sd card in some folder then point the live wallpaper at that folder.
Sorry, it is a big file (98.46MB). It has 105 wallpapers at the time of posting this but I do add to it.

Falling Snow live wallpaper help!

I love this live wallpaper BUT it has an obvious problem: the custom background size is limited to 480x800 instead of 960x800!
Anyone managed to play it with full 960x800?
Are you referring to the "Falling Snow" live wallpaper by NewCaboose?
If so, I am the developer for that application.
I was not aware of this problem with the wallpaper, can you tell me what device you are using?

Have a look at the sub-forum we are in, and take a guess
Ah, I see. My apologies, I found this through a Google search.
So then the 960x800 is beyond the bounds of the resolution of the Nexus One. I assume that is the "standard" size for a wallpaper that would scroll when changing home screens.
I can add this feature into the wallpaper, but not any time soon. I just moved into a new house and I don't have a desk for my computer.
If anybody else would like to add this feature, I have no problem releasing the source code, as long as it is returned back to me to release on the market. I don't want multiple versions of my wallpaper cluttering up the market.
It will be great with 960x800 and a Christmas wallpaper included for later purpose

[Q] Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) Wallpaper Shift?

Hi all, I tried posting this in the Android and/or Xoom forum, but alas, as a new member, I cannot. Here’s my question, hopefully someone can help. I’m about to purchase a Xoom, and simply stated, the Xoom has 5 ‘desktops’ that you can ‘pan across.’
I’ve seen a few videos of the Xoom on YouTube, where the ‘wallpaper’ shifts slightly when you pan right or left to another ‘desktop.’
I plan on using this device for a unique purpose, and when I pan right or left, I want the entire background to change.
For the sake of this post, let’s assume I want each desktop wallpaper to be a different color…red, blue, green, yellow, and orange. Further, when I pan, I don’t want to see anything but THAT one color.
So again, the distinction here is…
1) A slight shift in the ‘wallpaper’
Versus
2) a whole new image (color or otherwise) on each of the 5 ‘desktops.’
I'm looking for number 2. Is this possible?
Thanks!
Their is a app called MultiPicture Live Wallpaper and it allows yopu to select different images for each screen. A little late.
seem nice the MultiPicture Live Wallpaper. can it be used on phone other than xoom?

[Q] Static picture wallpaper = lag, Live wallpaper = zero lag

You know the old saying "live wallpapers lag your phone"? NOT MINE. It's the complete OPPOSITE for me. Regular picture wallpapers create a lot of lag no matter what the resolution of the photo is and how I crop the image to set the wallpaper, EVEN factory wallpapers.... Switch over to Live wallpapers and its PERFECT. No lag at all. There's two main reasons for posting this question. Well three actually. One is I don't want to use a live wallpaper, I have many nice regular static picture wallpapers that I'd like to use. Two, I'd LOVE to find out why the hell and HOW can this be happening? How can live wallpapers be the complete opposite? And thirdly is I know posting on this website, I'd be most likely to get a good answer and maybe fixed. Using motorola droid razr HD xt925.​
