Suggest a Live Wallpaper - Galaxy S II Themes and Apps

Seeing as there are a lot of poor quality lwps out there I figured a thread suggesting good looking ones would be a decent idea. I'll start off with Particle 3d, it looks great if you crank the settings up :
Market link

Thanks that one looks good.
I suggest any of these 3 :
ice galaxy
Inferno galaxy
Vortex galaxy
edit : and shadow galaxy

any chance of getting the iconia water level LWP ported to SGS2?
as seen here on the galaxy tab 10.1

Looks awesome on the X10 but I'm getting horrible colour banding on my SGS II on that.
Using plain black with sparkling particles now anyway so thanks

I think Photile is absolutely impressive. Very cool effects and very versatile as different effects and wallpapers can be chosen.

If you want to impress the geeky friends try 'spring zen hd'. Depth of field, etc.

Here's a version I made as well, it's just a simple blue background, it does have some banding though:

I simply love the Blue Skies Live Wallpaper. The way the colors change when the sun goes down adds a nice touch.

The Inferno Galaxy looks stunning on the SGS II wow!

Another nice live wallpaper I keep returning to is Particle Storm.

Really nice job, these boot animations are sick!
Only issue I'm having is I can't decide between the original or the new blue one haha!
Thanks for your work!

The blue one its outstanding absolutely brilliant. I've got one question tough, after 5-8 seconds the screen decrease the brightness level and the boot animation doesn't look cool. I know it's not related to your work but do you know how to fix it?
Anyways I'm absolutely loving this thing. Thank you very much.

I think that's normal and with happens with all bootanimations.
Would it be possible to make a live wallpaper from the blue one? That would be amazing

Hmm I'll think about it.
As for the dimming effect that usually comes with a vibration, it usually means the boot is almost over; As far as I recall it's always been the case, but maybe the dimming can be cancelled, I'll see what I can find.
Nice job. Definitely will try it.

this is my favourite bootanimation :good: thanks
thanks so much, cant wait to use this.
I like. Well worthy of the attention you are getting. Thanks!
It was OK. But didn't work since I got new aokp jb 08 aug installed. I copied to /data/local n renamed. Still have aokp animation.
Anyone has this issue?

I also would like one if anyone has the spare time or willpower to do so
Have you tried Emerald Elegance theme? It's a green and gold theme that would fit nicely for a Zelda look.
Also, someone in the Nexus7 community made a boot animation of Link pulling the master sword that would go good as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2223471
Are you serious?? Someone made that.. *Scampers away*

Already working on a Zelda theme...sort of
I know this is an old thread, but figured I would reply anyway. I was working on an Ocarina of Time theme for iOS when my iPod Touch decided to jump out of my pocket while riding my bike downhill at about 20 - 25 miles per hour and shatter. I've been trying to learn how to make themes for Android so I could "port" that theme over into the Android world. If anyone can help me out with learning the easiest method of theme creation, then I'd be happy to bring a nice Zelda theme to you.
Have a look at my iOS version: http://s233.photobucket.com/user/trh2086/library/

xDarkfire! feel free to change the color if you can but im really happy with the blue color so wont change that not for now atleast, maybe later when i have some time over ;D
psycho2097, laggy ?;O how is that possible, you are the first one that says its laggy, for everyone else it is smooth ;O alteast on Nexus7! its kind of hard for me to see if its laggy when im not owning a galaxy nexus, so Über was the one testing it and it wasnt laggy for him!
Does anyone else experience any lag in the bootanimation?

Flurry of new wallpapers coming, sign of new version coming?

Are you guys noticing the new wallpapers suddenly being posted on N4 and HTC one renders from yesterday? Previously the official render of Android AOSP used to be the yellow wallpaper on 4.2.
But from yesterday I am seeing two new wallpaper renders.
Render1
And Render2 :good:
Probably....

cool rumour bro
I swear I've seen this blue wallpaper before.
Edit: Yes, I was right. The blue one can be found in 4.2.
http://androidspin.com/2012/11/01/android-4-2-wallpapers-ready-for-download-as-well-as-system-dump/
the blue one can be found in 4.2 as the virjog said and the other one looks to be a red phase beam wallpaper
I'm using the blue one as my main right now. It came in 4.2.
Also, not every render phone's wallpaper comes out. I remember some of the first galaxy nexus official renders had some sort of blue phase beam, but it was never released. I think the red phase beam looks killer, though.
I am using the PA rom and they never released the blue wallpaper with the rom,may be thats why I never noticed it. anyways the Red/orange phase beam is definitely new.

Fellas, the blue one is the stock Nexus 4 wallpaper (one of four that didn't come to gnex). It came preinstalled together with jop40c (4.2). We can stop these speculations now

Err....not sure if I got your point. Are we discussing wallpapers' availability now or what they represent (potential incoming software upgrade?) ? The op mentioned these wallpapers as something new and possibly an indication that 4.3 was coming. With my post I just proved the blue wallpaper was actually old and thus couldn't be used as sign of upgrade being around the corner.
Wanna blu one? Here you go buddy
1 different color of an old wallpaper and one old wallpaper does not equal a "Flurry of new wallpapers"

*Facepalm* All that rom is is CM themed like TouchPiss. You could pull all of the sounds, wall papers and launcher from that rom and put them on your phone. Then you could install one of the the many TouchPiss themes out there. That would essentially give you what that rom is on the Gnex.
S4 CM 10.1 theme: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...hc3NhZmNhLnRoZW1lLnRvdWNod2l6LmZpdmUuZnJlZSJd
I agree with mentose457
it all sounds good on paper well phone lol..... but it would be all surface look and that would be all you need anyway.... seems more like just specific theme look is all.
but good luck on your tweaking.
cheers

Ah, the cyanogenmod team might do this using a cyanogenmod rom but I dont think everything will be pure Samsung Galaxy S4 as framework might be different although its "Galaxy" Nexus. I could be wrong correct me if im wrong.
Based on CM10.1, you can expect some serious mimicking of Galaxy S4. Of course, this is all cosmetically S4 but it can certainly refresh your Nexus 4 experience.

Comments say that it does not have S4 calendar widget, so it probably doesn't have many changes aside from looks.
It's just CM10.1 with a theme, and sounds. You should be able to download the sounds yourself if you look around, and use a theme from the Play Store.
Why look around? The sounds, wallpaper, and launcher are in that download already. Download that ROM and pull them from it. The theme it uses is probably a regular t-mobile theme engine theme that you could pull from that ROM.
