Suggest a Live Wallpaper

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 :

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.

Request: Orange theme for AOKP B30

Hello folks! Hope you're having a great Easter! Unfortunally Sweden is almost totally covered with snow and it's pretty much Christmas feeling rather than Easter.
But let's go topic;
As you can see im running AOKP B30 build, lovely rom! But to be honest, im not so in to the cyan color of ICS overall. Is there by any meaning possible to have this theme applied on the rom? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531352
I've tried all links and zips, my phone won't go past the boot screen. PLEASE help me! Im a big fan of orange
Many thx,

Agree!
I would love to see a red or orange or maybe purple theme for AOKP!

Look in galaxy nexus forum there are plenty and they are compatible. Been using for a month with no issue

[BOOTANIMATION] Nexus 7 boot animation, smoother, brighter, resized for Galaxy Nexus

Here is the N7 bootanim in 16:9 instead of the original 16:10, with some contrast/color corrections, and a higher fps
Put in /data/local and rename to bootanimation.zip
Enjoy!

EDIT: Added a black and white version
And blue version my favorite.
Added preview for those who don't know what it looks like (yet)
EDIT 2: Now full rainbow set

Is this the one with the Nexus X?

No, the X version is the Jelly Bean bootanim, this one is specific to the Nexus 7 tablet

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.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

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?

MIUI why isn't it popular?

hi all i've been lurking in nexus forums lately and i found miui ( 4.1 is released ) to be totally beautiful and gorgeous it has a really nice theme to it , + it have a ton of customizables ...but there's only about 50 k views ,,why is that so ? it seems to be a well made rom ...so is it so unpopular? i don't have a nexus yet though

because it looks like an iphone. alot of people dont like that look.

Some people like the aosp versions. Generally people have different preferences. I used to love MIUI and use it frequently until I came to the gnexus where the whites were not up to my expectations. However today jb version of MIUI is out and I'll be giving that a go. Hopefully will stick with it.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

I'm not sure about the others, but i've been in the android sphere for over 2 yrs and i never flashed a miui rom. iOS like UI's just don't interest me.

This for me also.

Saying it looks like an iPhone isn't the real reason because you can customize MIUI much easier with it's built-in theme engine - there's hundreds of themes available for it that looking NOTHING like an iPhone and NOTHING like aosp as well.
The reason it isn't popular here is because it runs like crap on the galaxy nexus. If you popped in over at the Desire HD or SGSII forums you'll see it's one of the top ROMs used there because it runs beautifully on those devices.

oh so miui isn't optimized for nexus ? one more thing is there a difference between aokp , aosp , cm10 ?

I don't like closed source ROMs plain and simple. Release your source so others can build on your success.

It doesn't have to look like iOS at all. I have run Miui with Apex Launcher and it looks nothing like an iPhone.

LOL isnt optimized for the gnex? right... AOKP and AOSP and CM10 are almost all the same some have other features the other might not. Just try them all.

Exactly what I was gonna say

It will grow huge with the latest update. Just wait.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I just tried it out and it can't currently hold a candle to Jelly Bean in terms of UI smoothness. Deal breaker for me. Also doesn't seem as stable, and chews through battery.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

It is not as smooth as other roms. I like miui a lot, just not on nexus yet. Hope the smoothness comes back.

you guys that have never tried and think its too much like the iphone check this out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hICCWO8vaXU

It doesn't take advantage of GPU rendering and therefore is God awful slow and painful to view. Basically its not at all optimized for the nexus. You can change the scrolling style on the launcher, or use apex/nova, but as a workaround its a poor trade-off.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

Why you ask? Because they refuse to release source.
sent from my Galaxy Nexus running RasBean!!!!

1. i'm not particularly fond of its smoothness or appearance. i ran it on my evo for about a day, just to see what all the fuss was about, but was not terribly impressed.
2. closed source. not because i really care either way about re-contributing to the community (sorry guys), but because i've spent enough time working with slightly-less-than-reputable foreign programmers to be cautious of it. before you start ranting about how i'm some kind of racist/anti-chinese douchebag, just stop. i'm not even suggesting that there are sneaky things going on, because it's awfully hard to hide those kinds of things from the rest of the community. their fierce determination to keep all their code/modifications to themselves, for some reason, just makes my spidey sense tingle.

guys today they just updated it to jellbean making it smoother

It's just not butter!!

What would be harder to do?

I was wondering what would be harder to port...............Touchwiz, Sense, or Aplications Platform(Motorola)?

I'm no expert on this topic but sense would most likely be the hardest to port. As for easiest I have no idea
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

Yeah I'm liking how Motorola is going and I like the way touchwiz looks but people get mad when I ask about a non-stock ROM on a Google device.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

I'd say the Motorola I went to a Verizon store and played with the RAZR m. Widgets are nice and overall u.I. was smooth. Was ICS BTW... sense would be amazing and maybe stutter proof ( we do have a beast of a phone)

There's a guy in the dev section who has been working on the ports , still not mega stable so they all look like a pain. Give him a message am sure he has more info

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

NO offense but IMO, Holo is the prettiest launcher so far. Nothing can replace Holo on a GNex.
But looking at the progresses, sense seems to be the most easiest (or most worked on) so far cuz months ago i saw TW ports and Sense ports but nowadays i only see Sense ports.
