I'm not a big fan of a live wp. But I like the optimus 2 wallpaper the rain one and can't remember Tue name off the top of my head but Tue one where it uses all your pics on in your dcim folder and changes them. Like a digital picture frame.

This.
I also liked starfield
There's also a DOOM lwp that's pretty easy on the battery. Plus that dev was making updates to the rendering engine every few days to better optimize it.

Wave Lite Live Wallpaper is great too. It's basically the PS3 live wallpaper, but on your phone. It also has good battery life because you can set the background to black, and the wave to white.

ballpaper

I have a few different favorite live wallpapers, as I have been using them for almost a year now (On one phone or the other). Most of them I see listed in the last few posts above me, but one I didn't see mentioned that I think is great, would be PhysX Pro Live wallpaper...
Physx Free/Pro live wallpaper is a bunch of configurable particles that bounce about around your screen. You can configure the colors of each particle, bounciness/rebound, size, and if you decide to turn attraction on, you can change the attraction/repulsion of each color of particle. If you don't want that, you can have them follow north on the compass, or just bounce around randomly. It looks really neat, and sort of high tech/sci-fi ish if your into that type of thing... definitly worth a look.

Oh yeah that's a good one. splurps up your battery however right?

Logcat Live Wallpaper

I like the camera live wallpaper. Lets me do things on my phone and I can see where I'm going. It eats up battery a bit, but with a 3300 MaH battery, that's not really a problem.

WP Clock Live wallpaper

Hopefully this is in the right place to post, but I had to share this for those that never heard of this live wallpaper.
Its easy on the battery since there's not alot moving, and overall just a nice informative wallpaper to have.
There's a free and paid version 65cents? Paid version doesn't really offer to much more than the free one, besides choosing a background and different color fonts and making the font move. But at 65cents not a bad deal I suppose.
Its called WP Clock on the market.
i just love WP Clock..
May I ask if anyone knows what is the widget that looks like the wallpaper with the clock and the tine n stuff but its a widget instead of a wallpaper.

Is this what you're looking for?
Been using this for a full month by now. It's by far the most useful/pretties widget replacing wallpaper I've yet to use.
And for its price, it's a steal.
this thing rocks... LOVE IT!!!
just bought wp clock and i must say it looks fantastic. one thing abt it though, i don't like how its a wallpaper so every homescreen's filled with the thing. really need the space on other homescreens for other stuff. if only they could make this into a widget. typoclock looks similar but i love the data connection and battery info. i tried using multi live wallpaper to have multiple wallpapers simultaneously but it doesnt support using a live wallpaper and a normal one from the gallery. so i guess im stuck, or has anyone found a solution for this yet?

the developer is really good at taking and implementing suggestions... I asked for drop shadow, but he wasn't able to figure that out, so he did the outline so I set my text to white (40% opaque) and outline to black (4pt 80% opaque) and it's almost as good as drop shadow... definitely gives enough contrast to where you can read it no matter what your background is... tell you what, I would actually like the same thing, so I will request it as well, and maybe we'll get it twice as fast =)

[REQ] Tron / Glow theme

Cant hide Im a big fan of the Tron movies
Im hoping someone might be able to make a glow or Tron type theme-
Here are some pictures of what I was thinking of-
http://mobilearea.mobi/wp-content/u...CY-PADW-THEME-TRON-LEGACY-PRO-for-Android.jpg

Mainly a blacked out theme with icons and such in a lighter color with a glowing outline around them or something like that.
Anyone else have any interest in this?
There are a couple good tron themes for adw launcher that would give you icon pack and wallpapers.
And a beautiful widget clock skin, as well.

Ive got the launcher and everything set up nice, its just the other things like the status bar at the top, dialer, lock screen etc Id like to match.
I definately think it would look cool, but I also think it would be hard on the battery.

I dont think it would be any worse than other themes since it would be blacked out for the most part so the screen can shut off those pixels.
If someone could do a theme like the first pic that would be siick.

Corvette LWP (Kang of Asus Day Scene LWP)

Here is my Kang of the Asus Day scene. Swapped out the images for my car (dont judge me) and the background changes with the time of day and weather. If you would like, install as you would any LWP and reboot. If the image background changes white do not worry just reboot and your good!
Enjoy!
Taking requests if anyone would like something else in the background!

Is there a theme that changes wallpaper according to the day?

I don't want a live wallpaper because I figure the battery would die faster. Is there a theme that change the background according to the time of day? It's this one: http://www.appleiphoneschool.com/2008/08/16/illuminated-winterboard-theme/
Is there anything like that for the Galaxy S3?
Well Picspeed Wallpapers has an option that cycles your favorite wallpapers from every hour to every 24 hours, you can try that. I have not seen any themes like Illuminated for the Iphone for Android.
The battery issue on live wallpapers is really a small issue and also, any theme that changes wallpaper is going to take up just as much battery as a similar live wallpaper.
I would go with live wallpaper it has almost not impact on battery life as it did before, try out this

Make a little girl happy

Help me "Hello Kitty" the hell out of a new 16GB Nexus 7. I need some ideas. I'm leaving it stock(since she's eight). I'll probably have it run Nova Prime. That's about as far as I have gotten. I don't want to just slap a hello kitty wallpaper on it and call it a night, I'd like to make it really shine. Any ideas? Any screenshots of said ideas?(They wouldn't have to contain hello kitty, just sort of be a template).
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sd.google.helloKittyCafe
Of course make sure you do NOT have a credit card associated with this Google Account if a child is using it. Hello Kitty feeds on in app purchases.
The next thing you want besides a wallpaper is some sort of theme or icon set. A quick search on Google Play found a couple, but it seems iffy if they will run on a tablet (they don't seem to have been updated in a while)
Help this person out everyone!
Lucky kid you got there You should probably make a whole folder of Hello Kitty wallpapers and then use some kind of app to keep switching them up every once in a while.
Try this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=slide.photoWallpaper
Or try Multi picture live wallpaper.

Worth rooting just to be able to do a HelloKitty bootanimation.
A bit of googling finds these:
http://androidforums.com/droid-all-things-root/232419-bootanimation-hello-kitty.html
http://madteam.co/forum/design-16/bootanimation/30/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34786556&postcount=1213
NOTE: I haven't tried any of these.
Boot animation would be cool, but you may want to avoid system changes like that as they may make future ota updates a hassle.
http://mycolorscreen.com/?s=hello+kitty&searchsubmit=Go
you could get some pretty ideas from there and no root required
I would try to find anything related to hello kitty on the app store..Maybe find some nice Hello Kitty icons? Most of this will probably be paid purchases but at least you will be giving her exactly what you want and not just something.

Or just search web images and copy into your gallery the correct size and use as wallpaper.
That's pretty much how I find all my wp and icons. I'm doing the same for a 10 year old. So much easier finding free apps at the Amazon app store for kids... things I've installed:
"Tools": eclean, School Helper, the English Dictionary, Airdroid, Unit Converter, Mobi Calculator.
"Photo": Zedge, Photo Editor, Picasso, Picsay, Quickpic.
"Media": IMDB, Kindle, YouTube, Flipboard (with kids stuff), Shazam, My Piano.
"Google": Earth, Sky, Goggles, and all the normal ones.
"Games": Air Control,Angry Birds, Cut the Rope, X-Construct, Dropwords, Block Puzzle, Jewels, Crossme, Chess Free, Temple Run, Ocean Bubble, Bean's Quest, Magic Academy, and Origami Instructions.
HOLO Launcher, easy to set up, very fast and smooth. Wifi Status icon on each screen so she turns it off. World Weather Clock widget.
Just trying to decide between "Text Now", "Heywire", and Google Voice, for her texting... probably let her decide.
make boot animation a hello kitty one that says "hello kitty and hello childs name"?
How about a UCCW clock.

At OP,
You said you would be using Nova Prime so use it!
You can install a pink adw theme which will change some of the icons using the icon theme under the look and feel settings, under the same setting change the colour theme to pink, uncheck infinite scroll on the home screen setting so when you hit the last home screen it glows the colour you've set....pink.
Set the transparency under the drawer setting to a ¼ or less so you can vaguely see your wallpaper, grab a free hello kitty clock and some Widgets and you're away.
Pic is for illustration purposes, you have to use your imagination cos a hello kitty on my N7 was a bit a step too far for me to show you.....hint, don't forget to save your settings, I didn't lol.
And what you have is a stock N7 with a light pink theme plus calenders, widgets and clocks of your choice for free, if you wish to pay for an hello kitty icon pack its your choice.

Soft case
Hi - I have a seven year old daughter, and she managed to drop my Nexus 7 on the floor and break it within a few months of me getting it, so first and foremost, get a soft case that will make it drop proof. My daughter is pretty sensible, but accidents happen and these things are fragile.
I've now got an Amzer soft silicone case for the replacement N7 (which is presently wrapped and under the tree), which should make it drop proof (based on reviews on Amazon). They are available in various shades of pink!

TouchPal actually has a Hello Kitty keyboard and a couple other girly keyboards as well.

+1 amzer silicone case, they have a hot pink one that'll work with hello kitty smashingly. There's a Hello Kitty live wallpaper from Sanrio and a few cafe/salon games. UCCW for sure, and then use HDW or Beautiful Widgets to add in a pink control bar for her, so she can easily access the settings she'd want to change such as brightness. The hello kitty keyboard would be great because typing takes a lot of screen space, and besides, keyboards are one more way to express style. Just make sure it's durable/waterproof. And I'd get a hello kitty satchel/purse that fits her tablet securely. You're an awesome santa for doing this, BTW! -Ara
