There was a thread similar to this a little while back, but it died. So what do you use the most? Do you have some cool ones to share? Usually I just check the market for good ones.
Also, so anyone know where I can get the stock samsung galaxy s series lwps? I can seem to find a good link to download them from. And I really want the "ocean" one. Any help would be appreicated!

My favorite is microbes but it lags my phone. My second favorite is Aurora, but I can't get it to work without force closing. I like all maxelus lwps they are really good.

i attempted but all the ones that were available the link was broken. usually when i google i find nothing but the newest leaked SGS2
Almost anything by Kittehface is golden. Here's the ones I use, switching between them depending on the mood:
aniPet Aquarium
Asteroid Belt (Kittehface, really awesome)
Blue Skies (Kittehface, really awesome)
Fireflies (the one with the light bulbs)
Giraffe
Ice Galaxy
Jungle Waterfall (Kittehface)
Rays of Light
Silhouette (Kittehface)
Vortex Galaxy
I'm a big fan of Live wallpaper; it's just something that clearly makes our devices stand out immediately.
i completely agree with you. i like the galaxy ones by that dev, i but it seems to run REALLY slow on my even overclocked G2. depending on the ROM
I use 'Multipicture'. Its not really a 'live' wallpaper, but it acts like one and allows you to set different wallpapers for each screen. Its available for free in the market.
I love solar winds, would live to be able to customize it.
Zoomfield, 3D starfield, plasma.
If there was a waveform mod that allowed you to change the background image and color of the wafeform, I would be very happy in my pants. Does anyone knowbof a music influenced lwp other than waveform and vu meter?
I've been using one called "Shadow Galaxy" made by "maxelus.net" that I found on the Android market. It is one of four Space galaxy wallpapers by maxelus.net. The other three are "Vortex Galaxy", "Ice Galaxy" and "Inferno Galaxy."
All four of the Galaxy wallpapers are free and very nice to look at IMO. Obviously, they use more battery than static wallpapers but I have gotten pretty good battery life while running these. Check them out, they are not my creations but I do enjoy them.
I just installed Night Sky and the Ice and Shadow Galaxy live wallpapers. Shadow Galaxy is my favorite by far. The graphics are stunning!

I love all of these, I switched weekly- thank you for posting this!
Any Idea how to capture the screen?
Edit: nevermind with rooted device there are some apps
I found a new one that's downright incredible: Celestial Bodies. The lite version isn't great imo because it's restricted to one view (the one I dislike), but the full version is fantastic, runs like a dream on this phone and doesn't even show up on my battery stats. There's another amazing one called Solar System 3d that has the best graphics I've ever seen on this thing, but it was showing up as 29% of battery use after 6 hours of being unplugged, so I stopped using it. Not sure if that was a fluke or not but worth noting.

Light grid pro is by far my favorite! There's tons of ways to customize from colors,shapes and animations.

Can someone direct me towards a facebook widget that is transparent for this phone please? i cant find one for this model.
Try Colorize Widget........or try the search function. There's entire threads dedicated to transparent apps n such.
Android pro widgets (apw) is better. Colorize is too buggy.

apw worked great thanks! i did do the search function but it came back with so many results that were phone specific and i wasn't sure which would work with this phone. thanks for the help. one other thing. im trying to find a good alternative to the keyboards that came with phone. a friend said htc_ime however same issue i had with the facebook is that i dont see one that is for the SGS II. is there one that i can use that will work with this phone? or another keyboard you guys would recommend?
I use SwiftKey X. Thumb Keyboard is also a good one.

Use the social hub

I can't seem to find anything that compares. Colorize widget was the closest I could find, but it doesn't work spd shell 3d. Any alternatives that will work without using a common launcher?

I feel your pain, I had sense withdrawls when I first switched, then they went away but lately they have been coming again. With all the issues I've had with sprint and the lack of support from samsung, I think I'm going back to htc soon.
Anyways, enough of my rant, the closest I have found is the "android pro widgets", and it's free! It comes as a pack with a friendstream style widget, bookmark, calendar and even people widgets.
I really don't get why touchwiz comes with 7 screens and practically no widgets. HTC makes the only phone I have ever been able to create a nice layout using all screens and not have wasted space.
I miss feeds and updates widget that was on the first epic. Don't know why it's gone on the S2. If it's bcuz of social hub they could at least had added a widget for it!

Thx, but unfortunately it doesn't scroll for me and that arrow down is flakey
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
If you're looking for 3rd party (truly) scrollable widgets for spb shell 3d you won't find any. The reason APW uses a scroll button is the lack of scrollable widget support in your used launcher.
I use APW on my view tablet with and it is awesome. Better than sense for sure. If you really want friendstream, switch to launcherpro plus instead of touchwiz. LPP is smooth as hell and the widgets are awesome.

I just came from a HTC device and now have the SGS3, now i really miss the htc clock in both sizes, 4x2,4x1. I have looked on the internet for these clocks but i cannot find any.. If someone has the apk's of these clocks for the sgs3 and could upload these on this post than i would really appreciatie it!!
Thanks
Same, I want the clock on nexus 7 and my dhd has a ROM with no sense. Makes no sense to me lol
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
For sense clock, you can't port it to SGS3 because it needs sense framework to work.
But you can try Beautiful Widgets from the store.
Nearly same look. Just unlock animations are different.
Hi,
Maybe you can take a look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721809&highlight=sense+clock
And maybe keep it in a bookmark:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1799417&highlight=sense+clock, but actually no support for hdpi devices (certainly in the future, "more version are on the way") with animated flip clock
And from the Gnex section, with a 4*1 widget: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576980&highlight=sense+clock
I have found the "3D Flip Clock & World Weather" app gives me the clock most like the one I used on my HTC desire.
moji weather, one of my dev friends in china made a perfectly looking skin of the one x clock for moji weather, just search for cc in the app. it is actually a perfect copy of the sense clock

For 4x1 you can try Fancy widgets

You can also install beautiful weather and use the htc one x clock theme or other htc theme, there are several of them you can download
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
fancy widget is the closest version to htc one, but it has no flip numbers. also sense won't be available
A few days late in replying but I just got my gs3 a few days ago and managed to install a clock apk that was developed by the team elegancia guys in the sensation forums. It is a themed version of the sense clock and works ok, only bottom part is a bit cut out.
Sent from my GT-I9300T
Also have another app that I used on my old desire hd that works ok as well. Again, it's a bit cut out and not meant for gs3 but still works.

I use beautiful super clock that comes with beautiful widgets and then I choose clock skin "sense v4.1"
HD Widgets for me is just great. Fancy widget also have great themes.

I don't think our phone could ever handle sense 5. It looks lighter but I mean, just check the moving gallery and the constantly updated home screen, it's too heavy
