[App] Liquid Physics Live Wallpaper

I made a quick port of Grant Kot's liquid simulator java applet and turned it into a live wallpaper.
It uses a ton of cpu so it will probably drain the battery pretty fast but it's fun to play with.

zip file contains the eclipse project with all the source code if anyone wants to do something with it
edit: - ignore the apk in this post and download quinbd's version a few posts down, it's much better

It runs slower than my pc; its not fullscreen.

Yeah I know. That's as fast as I could get it to run.

pretty sick

Nice! Would be nice if it reacted to phone movement.

Thanks! I like your version better. I wish there was more particles but my phone just isn't fast enough.

Well, I hate Java and I love C/C++, so I might end up porting this to use JNI. This would probably be one of those areas where using C++ for particle movement could really make a big difference. Thank you.

Very cool.
I noticed you said it's "as fast as I could get it", but you're using postDelayed with 50ms intervals, which limits the refresh rate to 20Hz.
I changed that to 17ms, and added a simple fps display to test - it seems to max out around 30fps on my phone.

Yeah I found 20hz seemed to be the best compromise between animation speed and not using so much cpu time that the phone slows down to a crawl. Different phones might be able to run it faster though.

Nice app guys. Thanks.

May be change partical size? that would be cool. santa wish list?

+1 Supscription!
I really want this as a daily-use-wallpaper! :drool:
EDIT: Is there a way to make it more blurry, so it looks like the thumbnail here: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/mesmerize-your-friends-with-liquid-physics-lwp-for-android/ and not like this http://www.xda-developers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Liquid-Physics.png ???

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Pho.to Lab features include:
☆ Photo frames:
choose one of our beautiful frames if you need a final touch to your favorite picture.
☆ Realistic photo effects:
place your image in an unlikely setting. Airbrush it on an exclusive car or leave it as a sand imprint on the beach.
☆ Face photo montages:
Turn yourself or your friend into Jack Sparrow, an astronaut or a horrible monster. The most complicated montages are handled automatically by a face detection algorithm.
☆ Photo filters:
add some style to your images with various photo filters such as Black&White, Neon Glow, Oil Painting and many others.
☆ Photo collages:
create a wonderful picture of you and your friend floating together in a sentimental or futuristic setting.
How it works:
First, choose a photo effect. Then pick a photo you want to process. The photo will be uploaded to our servers and it will be processed there. Then the result will be downloaded back to your phone. All the effects are applied automatically, so you don't have to tweak them manually. This includes face montages. Our face detection algorithms will take care of your portraits.
Important:
Pho.to Lab needs Internet connection to process photos. That's why it's a good idea to use it when your smartphone or tablet is connected to Wi-Fi network.
Feedback:
If you want to complain about something or if you have a feature request, feel free to post in this thread. Alternatively, email [email protected]
Download Pho.to Lab FREE from Google Play
Download Pho.to Lab PRO from Google Play

As the official part is over, let me add my two cents. My name's Kate, and I'm a part of the dev team which has created Pho.to Lab. I'm eager to hear what you think of it and to help if you have any problems with the app. Negative feedback is welcome! Though personally I'd prefer flattering comments. Please, PM me if you don't feel like reaching out via email or posting here.

Uploading photos might not best option.
1. Privacy
2. Image size upload download limitations.
Above is my personal opinion. Idea is good.

Pho.to Lab doesn't generate short links to pictures unless you tell it to.

That's why we advise to use Wi-Fi. Besides, downloading an image seems way more efficient than storing 500+ hi-res photo frames in a phone memory. If Pho.to Lab worked offline, we should have sent a 16 GB flash drive to each user

upload to your server is not the good idea... IMHO...

Yes, but neither is jamming all the effects into phone memory. Besides, we have tons of pictures processed on our site everyday and no one has complained of privacy problems so far. (It's not a challenge, please don't try to hack it somehow)

You can make use of technology like webservices etc for processing instructions.
Just like google doing voice to text conversions. If we can imagine their data center size
Edit: It is brand power that people rely so much. I wish you all the best.
If you wish to provide cloud based services for storage it will sound positive but not just for image processing. Thanks.

Actually, we do provide storage services. But we're centered on photo processing and everything related to it, so we only host images. I guess I'll create a thread for our photo sharing app a little later.

We have opened a beta test thread about the new version of Pho.to Lab on XDA. If you want to try it out, head over here.

We have rolled out the redesigned version of Pho.to Lab PRO!
The interface looks fantastic now:

No

It only works for pubg , so it's sadly limited! I bought the pro version , i would love if this would work with other games like unity games etc .

I think it's unfortunate that it's limited, it would be better if it works with other games.

Thanks for purchasing my app.
btw I'm already working on it.

hello sir i m confuse between your app pubg gfx tool and gamers gl tools. When i changed graphics setting using pubg gfx tool and after that enable setting using gamers gl tools my gfx tool setting get changed. For eg i set graphics at lowest(potato graphics) but after using gamer gltools graphics change to low not lowest. Please tell me can i use your both app simultaneously? By the way gamers gl tools gives me very good fps (almost 35-40) and i think if graphics set to lowest it increase upto 45-50.

I thought well this looks interesting,but then ive read its only limited for PUBG mobile.I start to laugh,who the hell still plays this game anyway.Its also available in the playstore,it should be marked as scam

Actually this is the updated version (0.16.0) of the PUB Gfx+ tool but it creates the confusion between the user.
So it end's up with the seperate app.
Only Game tuner is limited to pubg and need for speed no limits. All other features works with all games and apps.
Also I'm working on new update for expanding the game tuner supported app list.
Anyway thanks for your feedback

Simply enable auto gaming mode & ping booster along with PUB Gfx+ tool.

Also i would really appreciate that the app could have a bunch of graphics tweaks like game genie on the rog phone has the fps unlocker etc. Actually it can override pokemon go fps cap which is 30 . All i want is pogo tweaks , i have a decent phone but niantic limiting the fps is a nonsense , im patiently waiting for the update keep it up ,im looking forward to this .

Hi sir, tried both apps but whenever i use gamers gltools after applying all changes by gfx tool it always change my graphics to smooth from so smooth(potato graphics). And i dont get fps more than 35 in smooth graphics.

Is this thing only for Pubg? Huh, wonder why it doesn't work.

Is this "safe". I heard gfx tool is causes your account to be banned. So, would this app result in an account ban?

Sir anti aliasing not working
Edit:- ping booster automatically stop and removed from notification panel.

I think this app is discontinued, was waiting for the update with more games compatibility like pogo etc. Bummer while you paid for a dead app .

is this app safe,, i worry banned by thirst apps running with PUBG

Promo code plzzz

PUBG settings get reset everytime.
Whenever I use this Gamers GL tool the pubg settings gets to default Mod everytime. I have to set the settings everytime when i launch pubg through gamers GL tool. What is your solution on this?

Metropolis 3D City Live Wallpaper​Introduction
Metropolis is a live wallpaper that streams urban, drone-scanned 3D scenes onto your home screen. It currently has 100+ 3D locations in North America and Europe, including:
The Empire State Building
The Statue of Liberty
Paris Las Vegas
Bordeaux Cathedral
and more
All these scenes are fully 3D like the ones in Pixel Live Wallpaper from Google. If you like Pixel LWP or Super Wallpaper, then Metropolis would be a good alternative for you Here is a trailer for Metropolis:
Features
100+ 3D locations (actually 147 now, a complete list can be found on getmetro.app/collection)
Camera animations, including phone unlock top-down animation and launcher page swipe rotate animation, as well as the scale and speed slider for animations
Camera parameters, including dolly zoom (adjustable field of view), brightness, vibrancy, and sharpness
(Pro only) Custom location in North America and Europe
(Pro only) Wallpaper brightness can follow dark mode
(Pro only) Blur after unlock to increase the readability of labels & icons
Download & Giveaway
Google Play Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.justzht.metropolis
Or just search Metropolis on Google Play
I would like to share 50 Pro IAP codes on XDA, there is no requirement, just open the spreadsheet, redeem the code, and try all features.
However, if you can leave a comment specifying which code you used, or leave a feedback/rate on Google Play, it would be much appreciated. Link (Used: 50/50):
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yP-vaj6Sg-UbNJk-4Tigk1UyPLOgAbk8CZ6E20gy8fk/edit?usp=sharing
Performance Concerns
Here is the catch: Metropolis is built with Unity. Yes, that Unity game engine.
Now, before you close this page immediately thinking that's crazy, please read my explanation on why using Unity (might get technical):
Currently, the only 3D city model data source that I, as an indie app dev, can get on the market is the Bing Maps Unity SDK. This Unity SDK shares the same upstream data source with Windows 10 Map app and the incoming Microsoft Flight Simulator (well that is just a speculation). That's the main reason I am using Unity to build Metropolis. (I know there is Google Earth but I cannot rip the model due to copyright issues)
I certainly understand your concerns that Unity might destroy your battery life and available memory, and Metropolis does have a relatively high memory usage in current stages. This is mainly due to the SDK's streaming approach. Unlike Pixel LWP or Super Wallpaper in which the data is already baked into a static scene, Metropolis streams city blocks tile by tile, which comes with additional memory cost and draw-calls.
However, the battery cost should be on par with most 3D live wallpapers, especially if you enable the 'adaptive framerate' option in the app. And I will continue optimizing the app with newer Bing Maps SDK that is more memory-friendly. After all, you can always download the app for free and try it yourself.
(BTW, a fun fact: Xiaomi's Super Wallpaper is also Unity inside)

If you have issues using Metropolis, please let me know using Google Play feedback or writing to [email protected]

It's a shame I came late, I'll keep an eye on tomorrow's batch, thank you for giving away those! I was hoping someone would come out with a "customizable version" of Super Wallpapers, so thank you very much there!
I'm already trying the free version and, though I'm aware this is in a Rushed Beta™ and you may be already working on it, I wanted to leave here my 2cnts:
The initial "zoom in from Earth full view to rotation side" effect is so dramatic (and beautiful) in the SW, maybe you should take a look at that and tweak it a little bit. I especially love how it spins faster while zooming in for the original SW.
The "zoom in the selected area" could use some kind of fade to black or extreme motion blur in between, taking like half a second, otherwise it feels so forced especially using low dolly zoom (because setting it too big shows the grid and that's even worse).
Hope you keep improving this awesome app! Take care and stay safe.

Thanks for the feedback! The original SW is surely a more mature package with many visual details I only realized when I got my hands on it.
As the original SW has special permissions granted from MIUI, it can show the full-earth view when in AOD. (The AOD permission was previously available to 3rd-party apps on Android P, but in Q it was blocked by the system). Metropolis cannot display in AOD due to this restriction, however, I would be happy to add a toggle to show the far side view at the beginning of unlocking animation, just like what linuxct's SW port did.
Yes I forgot to consider the case of dolly zoom in top-down animations (facepalm) and this would be fixed in future releases. I am still analyzing the original SW animation frame by frame, and from what I currently know in order to achieve a similar effect I might need to both increase the scale of motion blur and the resolution of earth texture so people won't see pixelated images at the end of the animation. Hmm I am still experimenting around this and will get back to you when I have made some progress so you can try out.
Have a good day and stay safe!

@OP
Didn't get any "Unlock Codes" but thanks for this, really nice!

"the code gone "
thanks so much.. I was given a code by direct message ?

However, the battery cost should be on par with most 3D live wallpapers, especially if you enable the 'adaptive framerate' option in the app. And I will continue optimizing the app with newer Bing Maps SDK that is more memory-friendly. After all, you can always download the app for free and try it yourself.
(BTW, a fun fact: Xiaomi's Super Wallpaper is also Unity inside)

Will look nice on my phone

All codes are gone being using the free version for about two weeks now, battery drain seems to be okay at least for me.

Now this, this really is something. Never have we had an Open Source camera that does reliable post processing. Congratulations on you and the team! Incredibly excited to see where this will be going, as the only other open source option was Open Camera, and to say that the UI was lacking would be an understatement. Are there any plans to introduce Video support with the same level of manual controls?
I tried it on my Redmi Note 9 Pro (joyeuse) running an Android 10 GSI and I'm impressed by the interface and features. It recognizes and switches successfully to three of the four sensors on the back. However, the UI is slightly compressed, leaving a gap at the bottom and making the preview look like a 16:9 image compressed to 4:3. That being said, the final images look great and I'm excited to try it out in different scenarios. I've attached two images with a banana for scale to see exactly what I mean.
Once again, thank you for working on this and I'm excited to see how you'll be improving the app!

Thank you for your feedback, but we really need new developers right now
Video with manual mode is planned, but not quite the same as in mcpro24

App didn't work for me on my Xperia 1 mark II, it automatically close itself

Thanks for effort!!!Sorry for comparison,but can this camera be compared somehow to gcam?

Is the update regularly uploaded on GitHub Releases Page too?

Photon vs Gcam. Both are taken in HDR.
Somehow the result is too bright and the file size is almost 3 times bigger than Gcam.
