Android 5.1.1 live wallpapers failure - General Questions and Answers

Hello all
My mind crossed an idea of installing some cool live wallpapers, but I have run into kind of big problem. I have android 5.1.1 rooted using kingroot.
Whenever I want to select an app for live wallpapers using any live wallpaper picker, the process starts, then black screen goes up for half a second, and then nothing happens. Please does anyone know how to help me?

[Q] Live wallpaper getting restarted every time after Jelly Bean update

In general things are more or less the same since the JB update except for one extremely annoying thing with my live wallpaper.
I use the Samsung "PhotoWall" live wallpaper with a custom set of photos and EVERY time I return to the home screen, the wallpaper is blank/black for 3 to 7 seconds. When I look at the RAM available on the device it shows anywhere from 800mb used/700mb free to 1.1gb used/500mb free. So I really can't understand why with that much free memory that ANYTHING is getting kicked out of memory, especially the wallpaper.
I've tested this with both the stock launcher and NOVA (my default launcher) and see no difference in the behavior. Other live wallpapers seem to stay in memory or at least load fast enough that by the time the home screen displays so I don't notice the lag. I have also tried changing the background process limit from the default of "standard number of process" (what is the standard number anyway?) and this also seems to make no difference. I have also tried changing the NOVA "Aggressive Desktop" setting and this also doesn't seem to make a difference.
At the moment I am not rooted and would prefer to avoid rooting until the warranty lapses but will do so if someone has a guaranteed fix for this. I also really like how this wallpaper shows a running slideshow of a set of photos I have picked. I've tried other types where the pictures float across the screen and prefer the way Samsung has done it so I'd really like to fix this issue rather than have to change the live wallpaper.
Has anyone else seen this issue? Is it Jelly Bean or a change in the way this Live Wallpaper is coded? Is there a solution?

[Q] No Live Wallpapers - Galaxy Note 3

Hi,
I've been reading stuff here in this forums for quite some time now but I only became a member just now. I have a rooted note 3 and I deleted some of the systemapps including bubbles and phase beam. I downloaded Galaxy Live Wallpaper App just now and this is the only time I realize that Live Wallpaper is no longer working on my phone. I'm not sure if it's because I deleted the bubbles and phase beam file. Or if maybe I deleted something else. I also remember deleting a system app named live wall paper picker, something like that. I was wondering if you guys can help me solve this. =) Is there a website I can download these files again? just to get live wallpapers up and running again?
Thank you,

Live Wallpapers on Nougat

Hey - just got my Nougat update yesterday. I am locked stock US Verizon. Had to do a hard reset to fix the Wifi issue. No I cant seem to find how to use live wallpapers. I am using the stock touchwiz launcher, so I only get the crappy Samsung store. Can you help me find Live Wallpapers to be able to apply them to my homescreen?
Thanks!

I would recommend switching over to the Pixel Launcher (found here: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/pixel-launcher/pixel-launcher-7-1-1-3368800-release/pixel-launcher-7-1-1-3368800-android-apk-download/)
That way you can use the Google Wallpaper app which works pretty well.

Thanks - I ended up using Google Wallpapers on the stock TouchWiz. Still seems odd that Samsung does not provide a way to apply live wallpapers.

Live Wallpaper picker.apk for CM11 - Solved

I found several threads about this issue that did get solved but it is not working for me.
I installed CM11 on my old phone and there is nothing newer for it. CM11 runs Android 4.4.4 .
I tried several live wallpaper picker apps and none of them worked.
If I install the app then I get the option in setting but it just crashes and does not allow to choose a live wallpaper. If I do as the thread suggests in the below link and this to just move the file to particular directory and change the permission and reboot then it would also crash.
