Live Wallpaper - Hero, G2 Touch Android Development

Using Villian 12 very good ROM live wallpapers work for a short time and then turn off back to default static background. Any idea why or if there is a patch for it ??

This is a question therefore is in the wrong forum!q&a next time please....
If you do not underclock or set the frequencies to chenge it works better,for example I have mine set at 710mhz all the time and it seems to stick longer

press menu button if u are in the home screen and select ->config ->tick livewallpapere-> have fun

Clock keeps changing on WM 6.5

I have the official stock ROM from HTC installed on my unlocked TP2.
Whenever I open the Start menu or the Task Manager and closes them again the clock changes.
For instance:
Let's say the current time is 21:40. I open the Start menu and closes it and the clock changes from 20:38 to 21:40.
The same thing happens when I open the Task Manager. When I close it, the clock changes immediately to 20:38 and then changes back to the current time.
Also, when I active screen lock I can se the clock changing from 21:40 to 20:38. Then the screen lock screen shows and whn I unlock the scree lock, guess what happens. The clock changes back to 21:40.
When I installed the ROM for the first time my clock was one hour in front. So I had to change it one hour back manually. Never had the above problem with WM 6.1.
Does anyone have a fix for the clock changing thing ?
Regards,
Jakob
LOL .. Amazing enough it is supposed to do that ..
Its animated to work that way to look cool.
Not sure if there is a way to turn it off unless you use a custom rom :/

[APP]homescreen 3D cube(and more)with MultiPicture Live Wallpaper and Launcher Pro

FOR THE USERS WHO JUST WANT TO SEE THE VIDEO DEMO:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZHIH7F0Z4g
Have you had an LG phone like the BL-40 Chocolate or the KP-500 cookie before with that cool 3d cube thingy, and wish you had the same for your android phone? Well, here's something that closely resembles that.
The chocolate had 2 home screens, and the wallpaper can be set differently for the two screens. When i bought the galaxy s, my very first android phone, i hoped that it had a similar thing, only now with 7 home screens to fill widgets with. Sadly, it didn't come with that feature (although the live wallpapers was a cool alternative).
And then i came across MultiPicture Live Wallpaper (free on the market) that let me set a different picture for each homescreen. AND it came with some AWESOME screen transitions. Also, you are not limited to just one picture, you can set a whole album to be shuffled for each homescreen. Cool yeah?
So i was impressed with that. Then I saw that launcher pro was having an update. In the newest version, Fede included some cool transition effects so I immediately updated and tried it out.
I don't know if it was fate or what, but the transition effects of the live wallpaper and launcher pro really work great together. Now my phone looks cooler than before!
IMPORTANT THINGS TO TAKE NOTE BEFORE TRYING THIS OUT:
Scrolling speed is different for the live wallpaper and the launcher, so i recommend playing with the minimum scrolling speed setting of launcher pro (launcher pro settings > advanced settings > minimum scrolling speed). If you find the wallpaper lagging behind your widgets/shortcuts, try setting the scroll speed to faster speed until they are in sync when scrolling.
IF MULTIPICTURE LIVE WALLPAPER FROM THE MARKET DOESN'T WORK AS IT SHOULD, OR IF IT LAGS TRY THIS OLD VERSION THAT I HAVE.

If this solves your problem good for you. If it doesn't, well it sucks to be you. LOL
people are reporting that in Darky's v9 this wallpaper doesn't work properly.. haven't tried it though since im in v8.1.. people on V9, please try the old version and report back if it works.. thanks..

If it's lagging, here are a few tips you could try.
1. Reduce pictures to your screen's size.. My screen is 800x480 so I resized my pictures to that size.. The file size of the picture may have an impact on the performance of the live wallpaper, so keeping it as small as possible may help speed things up..
2. Swipe your finger as slow and as short as possible.. I don't remember if I did this in the video, but whenever I swipe my finger, I do it slowly and my finger touches the screen for about half an inch.. This helps slow things down by registering a slow homescreen swipe..
3. Try less hardware intensive but visually unimpressive transitions.. My personal favorites are wipe, card and swap.. Wipe is the fastest for me..
4. Contact the developer and see if you could help out.. Im not the developer of the live wallpaper so I can't really do anything to improve it from a programmer's point of view..

BE SURE TO UNCHECK THE DISABLE WALLPAPER SCROLLING OPTION IN LAUNCHER PRO. go to launcher pro settings > appearance settings > disable wallpaper scrolling. Naturally if you leave that setting on, your wallpaper won't scroll.
YOU DON'T NEED TO USE BOTH THE LAUNCHER AND THE LIVE WALLPAPER. You can use a different Launcher on MPLW, and a different Wallpaper on Launcher Pro. But do take note that you can't have the launcher transition effects in a different launcher, and the Live Wallpaper transition effects in the live wallpaper..

Here's how to create the same setup
1. Download launcher pro. It's free and i believe the transition effects come with the free version.
2. Customize to your hearts content. Place widgets, shortcuts, etc just fill the homescreen with content so that you can see the effect.
3. Select transition effect. Press the context menu button while on your homescreen > preferences > homescreen settings > transition effect.
4. Download Multipicture Live Wallpaper and set it as your wallpaper
5. Set a picture for each homescreen. You can even set a whole folder to shuffle pictures from.
6. Set the transition effect that you want to go with your launcher pro transition effect. Press the context menu while on your homescreen>wallpaper>configure.
7. Enjoy!
Tip - go to launcher pro settings > advanced settings > minimum scrolling speed, then set it to 0.. it will slower the swipe speed (provided that you swiped your finger slowly as well)
Transition effects that go nicely with each other as shown in the video:
LP - Cube
MPLW - Cube
LP - Scale
MPLW - Swap
LP - Flip
MPLW - Swing
Not shown in video:
LP - Cube
MPLW - Wipe
LP - Rotation
MPLW - Card
Very nice effects. Thanks!!!
Ok im using a galaxy S with darkyys rom 9.0 and Voodoo 5.2 kernel.
Im using the latest launcher pro plus 0.8.3.
I download the app and go into setings and set individual settings for each screen, but when i go back to the homescreen it says no picture available please set picture on a black screen.
I cant double tap any of the homescreens to set a picture either.
I have noticed from some looking around that you have to go into default settings and pick screen type... but i have no default settings on my app or i cant figure out how to get into it.
Please help me set this up properly!!!

I heard darky v9 was buggy, that's why I settled for v8.1 ay the moment.. Anyway, I'm just your average android user, not a dev or anything but I'll try to help you out as much as I can..
First, can you post screen shots of your multi picture live wallpaper settings screen? I'll try to find a back up of my old version of that wallpaper for you to try.. I think the transition effects were included in the old versions..
EDIT: The link to the old MPLW is in the first post.. try it!

I'm on darky 9,0 Voodoo same as you and all works perfect. Maybe You have some options on check LP>Appearance Settings> disable wallpaper scrolling I think that option must be unchecked
I have this on and MPLW dasn't work
*FYI* You can use this with other launchers or if you can't find the setting inside Launcher Pro to set the transition (I HAD THIS PROBLEM THE SECOND TIME AROUND) This guide will help you. If anybody is using a different launcher like me I use ADW EX you might not be able to see the transition setting inside the launcher settings. You can still set this transition. While setting multipicture live wallpaper you can go into the settings before you actually save the wallpaper, scroll down to Drawing Settings and select your desired transition under Transition Type.
Before exiting I go into each individual screen setting for example Screen 1 Settings and click on Type of Screen then select Single Picture, Select desired image from gallery and then continue to do the same for Screen 2 Settings untill I have done all of my home screen wallpapers *BE SURE TO HAVE SCROLLABLE WALLPAPER ACTIVE IN YOUR SETTINGS ELSE YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO USE MULTIPICTURE WALLPAPER ****OP you might want to place all of this information in your 1st post***
Amazing! wow, thank you for sharing.. love it.. Thank you!

Well technically it is a live wallpaper, and live wallpapers are not tied to a launcher (at lest MPLW isn't) so yeah, you can use it with other launchers. But the point of this post was to show that the new Launcher Pro version's new feature are these transition effects, and those new effects go pretty well with the transition effects in MPLW..

It makes it seem like you need to use LP due to the nature of your original post. I was just clarifying it for the interested parties.
I have Darky`s v9.0 and it works great. Thanks
I installed the older version and it works fine now.
It loses the settings though if the phone is switched off and back on.

That was a typo. You should leave the disable wallpaper scrolling option unchecked.. Sorry about that, I corrected the instructions..

[Q] cm7 rc1v2 overclock

Hello i noticed that cm7 rc1v2 comes with 1ghz max clock speed at default. What are the possibilities of damage? How can I set it back to 800mhz max clock? maybe setcpu? thanks the answer!
Best Regards
Ernő
Recovery has o.c option.
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
i dont think it will damage anything..1Ghz is the max clock..it rarely goes to max..like wen u r playing a good graphics games or multi tasking and all..if u want u can underclock to 800Mhz also..
either use recovery overclock option or install setvsel and change the values.
recovery is when i put the volume down when the led lights blue?

You can try the following
Turn off your phone and turn it back on
When you see the blue notification light, press the volume down button
Select CPU Settings (use volume up and down button to navigate, power button to select)
Select CLK3: [1000]
Keep pressing [-10 Clk3] till you see the desired speed (for eg. 800 Mhz )
Once done, Select Go Back and Reboot the system.

[Q] Wallpaper Error - Plz Plz Help

Hi...
Guys, I'm farely confident that I may have messed up something. Its easy to apply a wallpaper. You go to the gallery and select a wallpaper that you would like to assign. (Tap the left side button and say set as...). Then you have options like Contact Photo, Home Screen, Lock Screen & Both...
Now there is something new like wallpaper & WhatsApp profile.
If I select wallpaper a stupid screen opens and it is ridiculous. I have made my own wallpapers and I have something wrong with it.
Guys please help me...
I dont think you have messed up anything...they are just the options when you use set as:
For example contact photo,whatsapp profile etc...
To set a wallpaper for home screen,just select homescreen...for lock screen select lockscreen..etc..
To set the photo as whatsapp wallpaper...select whatsapp...
The screen you have given is a cropping screen that is used to set the photo acc. to note's display.
Ajinkya... Thanks for the revert.
The problem is previously when I would select to set as wallpaper it would let me, however now it directly goes to this cropping screen. I want it to go back to the image where it would allow me to zoom in or out and then set the entire image as a wallpaper.
All the walls that I use are custom made to the screen resolution of 720 x 1280.
Please help me to reset the wallpaper function to default. I cannot find a way to go back...
Please Help.
Guys, please help as I have tried everything but still it doesn't work.
There are so many Guru's here. Please someone help me out.

It is a default on 4.3 I guess.
Sent from the corner of this rounded earth (N7105 v4.3, powered by LionROM)
From what i understand,you want to set your full image on a single screen,i.e do not want to use a part of it.Am I right??
Well by default it isn't possible,but there are third part apps that would let you do so.
One of them is:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.twistedapps.wallpaperwizardrii&hl=en
After install go to gallery,select set as for an image->select wallpaper wizardrii->select set->preview->select stretch portrait->Done.
Hope this helps.

how to change lockscreen wallpaper?

So in nougat, we should be able to change the lockscreen wallpaper separately from our home screen wallpaper. and although i barley spend anytime in my lockscreen, since i use the fingerprint reader and it bypasses the lockscreen. i would still like to know how to doit.
i tried doing a google search and articles show that i just change my wallpaper the normal way and it will ask me whether i want to change it for my lock screen, home screen or both. but for me, it doesnt ask me anything, i just choose a regular wallpaper and hit set wallpaper, then it just automatically sets both my lockscreen and home screen to be the same.
Where are you choosing a regular wallpaper? It shows up for me by long pressing the home screen and selecting wallpapers unless I pick the option for it to change daily.
ahhh ok, i was doing daily wallpapers and live wallpapers. thanks!
