I have run countless roms and like select wallpapers from each individual rom. My question is can I take a wallpaper from say Azrael rom and load them onto a sprint lovers rom? I've tried putting them on my sdcard, renamed them accordingly, then moved to system/customize/resource, via root explorer, but they don't show up in my wallpaper selection. Could this be because it will only display x amount? Note I've moved htc_wallpaper_x.jpg as well as htc_wallpaper_small_x.jpg to the folder. I know there are other ways to set the wallpaper but where's the fun and challenge in that?
Maybe things have changed but all I do is copy the jpg to my sd card into a folder called wallpaper. Then press menu-wallpaper-gallery. Select the wallpaper folder and then choose my wallpaper.
Does that not work for you ?

Agreed, but I'd like to have the option to go to menu>wallpaper>HTC wallpapers, and be able to see them previewed along the slider bar. See what I'm saying?
SOLVED
Played with zipped rom and swapped out some files, so far so good.

So, I'm using the rooted OTA and I'd love to be able to find the wallpapers in the phone memory and put them on my SD so that no matter what ROM I use I will be able to use the stock Incredible wallpapers. Any help would be appreciated!!

Thanks again for the info!! I ask because I love everything about CM7 save for the wallpaper and the sounds. So, I will copy all of the OTA's wallpaper and sounds and drop them in on CM7 and I'll be good to go!!
Thanks again!!
So, I found the default wallpapers in /system/customize/resource/ using a file explorer. But when I try to access the wallpapers by .... menu - wallpaper - HTC wallpapers , there are no wallpapers shown. If I press the "Set wallpaper" button I get "Warning No wallpaper" OK.
Where have all the wallpapers gone?

Just a quick question, does anyone know where the default wallpapers are stored?
I ran a quick search and serched manually but couldn't find them. I'd just like to add a couple more to keep my SD Card folder a bit tidy.
Thanks
? you can put custom wallpapers anywhere on your phone, it'll become recognized in the gallery app.
I'm not sure about ICS but for previous versions of android they are in the launcher2.apk

Yep they're in there. Launcher2.apk\res\drawable-xhdpi\wallpaper_name.jpg
Hmm, that's a shame.
Although could I replace that APK with another one with a few more added? The reason being, is I want to have some wallpapers in the phone, that will show up when I go to change a wallpaper but which will not appear in my gallery.
you can make a wallpaper folder, put a .nomedia file in it and then use a filebrowser app to set your wallpaper. not the easiest thing to do but it'll work.
additionally you can download a custom gallery like quickpic that lets you hide folders.
Where is the default wallpaper location on the T989? I have downloaded some nice wallpapers, but I want to know how to add them to the phone so they can be selected from the wallpaper menu.

you can add them to the "pictures" or "downloads" folder or make a new subfolder titled "wallpaper" under "pictures" if you want
OK thanks.
I thought there was something you had to edit in system/framework/

I don't know how to add them to the "wallpaper chooser" but functionally it's easy to add them from a downloads or pics folder.

To add to the wallpaper chooser, you have to go to system/app take the wallpaper apk out (this could vary depending on the ROM) and open it with zip or extract with an apk manager. Then switch the jpg's out with your own.

I just realized I can make folders in my app drawer and organize it. I've never seen any launcher do this. Has it been a touchwiz feature for a while or new for the note2.
Apex does it. Think nova does it too

Hey futant, How did you do that? I figured out how to make the folder, but I can figure out how to drag the apps into the folder.

I think its been around since the S2

whenin the app drawer hit menu, select edit, pick the folder you made and click the + icon. Then select all the apps you want to put in that folder.
I was using apex on my last phone. I guess I never noticed it. Thanks for the info guys.
I was wondering if anyone knew how to manually add fonts to the galaxy S3 jellybean tw rom. By manually I mean using root explorer and putting files in a particular folder if that can be done. I don't want to buy a font app that just does a transfer I can do myself. Please and thank you

You can, you would just need to put the correct file in the systems font folder.
The fonts in that folder don't appear in the touchwiz font selection screen under display settings->font

I see then; well honestly, you're better off just downloading an app to do it; as you're have to change everything in the system ui to that new ont. There are TONS of free root font changer apps. Have a go at them.

I would like to learn the areas of the ui I can edit to get that effect. I'm on XDA to learn anyway. I just finished a semester of C++ in my pursuit of an electrical engineering degree so I'm more interested in the journey than the effect anyway

You can install fonts manually in the system/fonts folder but it takes time... you need to find a font that has all the different font "states" (light, bold, italic, condensed/ all combinations of these) and should be in .ttf format
So here's what you need to do:
1.Make a nandroid !FIRST!
2.Download your font
3.Use a root browser and find system/fonts
4.Locate the main fonts the system uses (ICS&JB use roboto)
5.Write down all the font state names that begin with roboto (ie roboto-italic)
6.Rename the font states from your downloaded font to the corresponding roboto font states (font-italic to roboto-italic)
7.Paste all renamed font states in system/fonts
8.Set permissions for each pasted font state
9.Boot into recovery and wipe cache/dalvik & set permissions
10.Reboot and enjoy!

Just Google search for flip fonts. There are tons of free ones on the internet. They install like apks.
