Hey guys, i was wondering if i can get any help with something i've been trying to work on. I recently bought an EVO for 50 bucks practically brand new, i had it flashed to metroPCS. I should've check this before leaving the store but apparently the HTC Wallpapers that came on the phone were erased. I've been able to dowload the wallpapers through forums. Now here is where i need help! I want to upload the wallpapers on my phone so that they appear in the original location, so as if never removed. I'm very new at this. Can anyone help?
I will gladly help you with this. The original wallpapers are filed away under /system/customize/resource and their formats are HTC_wallpaper_01.jpg and so on. To move your wallpapers there or any wallpapers simply do these command lines:
1. Adb remount
2. Adb push [yourwallpaper].jpg /system/customize/resource
An alternative would be to use root explorer. Copy files then navigate to s/c/resource then paste. Anyhow you need root to do this. Hope that helps.

Thanks I don't know much about rooting the phone, and honesty I'm kind of scared of ruining the phone. I downloaded an app called astro file manager from the market. I was wondering if maybe with this app I would be able to upload the wallpapers to my SD card and then move them into system/customize/resource, or is their another folder they must go in. Thank you for your help.
Astro is a nice app but unfortunately it cannot edit system files - only files on your sdcard can be edited with it. Is your phone rooted? Rooting it will not break it but instead open up great options. The only way to modify system files ie system/customize/resource is to be rooted. I can help you with that if you'd like. Once rooted you can use root explorer (root version of astro) to move said wallpapers. But most roms will include stock wallpaper.
A walkthrough would be great!!!! I am not so sure if the phone is rooted, I thought maybe the phone was rooted when it was flashed over to metroPCS. If you can and don't mind if you can walk me through it i'll go ahead and give it a shot. Once again thanks for your time and help.
Hi Guys,
I have been tinkering around with sense themes and lockscreens and have created some lockscreen rings I would like to share and create for others.
I understand that people using other roms have different frameworks, so I plan to take the Fusion.apk from the users rom and modify it, question is what is the easiest way to push the file to another users phone.
Would it be possible for them to use a root explorer and push the file that way, or would I have to create a update zip in order to do this if so how do I start with this.
Are you s-off? If yes, use root explorer to copy the apk out of /system/app to e.g. sd card. Now you can share it (for example via bluetooth).

Guys i have lost the option to select live wallpaper. I had deleted it in error thinking i was deleting the live wallpapers that came with the phone-not the actual program that allows you to use live wallpapers. So i have been reading on the forum where i saw that i should reinstall the live wallpaper apk and the live wallpaper picker apk which i have done but its not still not appearing as an option when i go wallpapers.
Someone said this: "okay fixed it. found a dump of all of the original vibrant app/files and copied over the live wallpapers and livewallpaperpicker apk and odex files into the /system/app folder and it works again!!"
I copied the apks to the system/app folder and it still doesn't work. I don't know what odex files are. Can someone help ?
maybe you need to reboot or at least restart home apk? Hope it helps

Hello people of XDA.
My question is: I want to install wallpapers onto the Droid. I would like to put them in a folder so that they will show up with the rest of the stock wallpapers in the wallpaper selection screen. Is this possible?
Thanks!

You'd have to find the apk file that holds those, and then use 7zip to open the archive and add what you want in there. Way easier just to create a Wallpapers folder on your SD card to keep them there.
