Its been a while since I've used this live wallpaper that comes pre-installed on all Note 2's. I vividly remember that it had the ability that when I touched the screen my finger would cause a ripple in the live wallpaper. I've been trying for the past few days and I looked at the settings and I can't find this feature at all.
I'm on Novella Dos rom and I'm using Nova Launcher Prime.
Any ideas?
No one?
It seems to be related to wallpaper changes using converted pictures for wallpapers.
If i use the wallpapers in the samsung directory, ripple works.
And when I convert a picture it often fails.
At least this is what i'm seeing on the UCAMA4 stock build.
And running the UCALA2 build it works fine.
Bug ?
I really dont know...but it's annoying....g
Edit:
Ripple settings are under the general lock screen settings menu. If you are running a stock build or a variant TW build.
Ripple touch works fine for me.
Battery drainer though.
settings > lock screen > lock screen options > ripple effect
I'm not talking about the lockscreen ripple effect, this is about the live wallpaper called "Ripple Wall"

oops my bad... i just checked mine and ripple wallpaper works on tw launcher and nova launcher
The ripple wall live paper is of course, part of the stock UCAL or UCAM builds.
Novela is a UCAMA build, and should have the ripple wall inside.
Since it's a TW build, the selection of the paper should allow the ripple.
But I do not know what the dev added or removed from the build....g
Must be rom related. Cant stand this wallpaper but it works fine.
Not sure if this helps but
Settings> display> homescreen>live wallpapers> ripplewall. this brings you to ripple wall settings. Maybe something there?
I know you can turn off the sound, increase or decrease ripples so maybe you have ripples off?
Idk I use my beach hd for a wallpaper.

So the new sense 3.0 live weather wallpaper is niiiice.. really like it however the animated part seems to only happen in widget locker(if using) and not on the actual page. But this isnt much concern, my issue is that the sound effect happens in the lock screen when i use an alternative wallpaper. So my question is is there anyway to edit that live wallpaper to remove all sounds?

When selecting the live wallpaper, choose preview and there you will have a settings option. From there you can disable sounds.
My problem with the live wallpaper is different... After running for quite some time it just freezes until I lock and unlock my screen again...
any ideas?
i installed the sense 3.0 weather but my weather did not change ! (i could have the lock weather widget).
when i apply the default live wallpaper which is that girl with sunglasses the screen goes black ! the pattern lock screen is black also.
i just mounted revolution 2.3.3 latest rom.

Scrap that, apparently there are no sounds for night so i couldnt tell if it worked or not, but its the sound is still on. anyone help??
I'm having the same problem with the sound. I'd unchecked the box for sound effects, both in the clock/weather widget as well as the live wallpaper but there's still weather sounds.
I've linked it to the weather live wallpaper however. When I choose a different wallpaper, the sounds do not come up anymore.
Is there another way to disable the sound in this live wallpaper?
Hi, I have the same problem. I've unchecked the sound effect in weather app and also before applying a new live wallpaper (weather) ... but the sound in still on, when I unlock the screen... anyone knows what's going on?
I have HTC Desire with RCMix S v 2.0.1 ROM ... tnx for any replay...
Still no solution? This is so anoying

I had this while trying "RCMix3D KINGDOM v2.0 Evolutionary Sense!". But considering that and the fact that it wasn't very "live" after a cycle of the animation i picked another wallpaper (a normal one). However! After having installed Virtuous Unity 1.29 i tried the live weather wallpaper out. It's still not very "live" after a cycle of the animation, but at least unchecking the sound checkbox makes it be quiet.

It is only meant to do one 'cycle' that is normal. My HTC Flyer is the same. it must be a battery saving thing.

Thanks for this - love the wallpaper but the sounds were driving me crazy, living in the uk its cloudy all the time so the wallpaper plays a sound like a bloody fighter plane whizzing past!
Hi Guys,
Just started using Sense 4.0. Stupid question... much like the previous versions of Sense, the weather animations (wipers when raining, clouds across the screen, and etc...) that used to show up on the screen when the phone was unlocked; has Sense 4 gotten rid of these animations?
I mean, I see the weather animations in the clock/weather app, the Weather lock screen, but not the animations that used to show up on the home screen, after the phone was unlocked... Is that gone in Sense 4? Can someone confirm? Thank you.
The full screen animations are selected when you add a weather widget, such as the default clock. Just remove the clock, and add it again, it'll give you the option
No it hasn't gone from sense 4.0, you just need to remove the clock widget and then add it to the home screen again and it will give you the option to enable full screen weather animations. Hope this helps.
Edit: looks like edge3uk just beat me to it.
Hi
Yes you can get weather animations, you have a couple of choices:
On the Lock Screen
Go to Settings - Personalise - Lock Screen and select Weather. Now whenever you turn your phone on you get a weather animation for your location.
As a wallpaper
Go to Settings - Personalise - Wallpaper - Live Wallpapers and select the Weather
Note that these options, especially the live Wallpaper will be using a little bit more battery power then viewing a static wallpaper image, of course that only impacts you if the phone spents a lot of time on with the wallpaper on show.
Another option, generally more accurate, in real 3D, is to look out of a window or go outside Yes I too have animated weather, it just looks cool lol.
Edit: and another way is to use the widget as already posted, so that makes 3 so far.
Regards
Phil
It is off by default. Just long press the clock&weather widget and push it to edit, click your current location, and tick show full screen animation.
Guys,
thank you for ALL your wonderful replies! Indeed, the animations work for me now, BUT, I cannot figure out what "triggers" them on the home screen... they just happened randomly, I can't deliberately kick em off...
For example in earlier Sense versions, the way to kick it off was, EVERY time you unlocked the phone, and the home screen had the Weather clock, the animations would go....
That doesn't happen in Sense 4, can someone confirm this or tell me what I am missing?
Thanks again!
well for me they only appear after unlock.

Hey, I am running into a somewhat annoying issue with regular wallpapers not scrolling along slightly with the home screen pages. The Live wallpapers seem to work just fine. I have verified that the resize prior to setting the wallpaper shows both the edges for the shift, but it does not do so when scrolling through homepages.
Is this normal for the Note 2?

I don't think the touchwiz launcher allows scrolling wallpaper. If you install and use the Nova Laucher it will allow that though.

Live wallpapers will scroll just fine in Touchwiz and static wallpapers will not. It's normal. Apex and Nova are 2 launchers that allow static scrolling wallpaper.

Cool guys, thanks. Was somewhat used to seeing it on older HTC devices and found it odd that my phone didn't do it.
Is there a way to add live wallpaper to the lock screen. It has always been a feature on my previous Samsung phones (Note 3 and S3).
It seems that the hold up is the wallpaper chooser excludes the live wallpaper folder. Is there a wallpaper chooser app that will allow changes to wallpaper and lock screen wallpaper?
Googled it, because i want my lockscreen wallpaper to match my home screen (just like SGS, yeah). Someone on Phandroid forums says he emailed LG and they replied that it's not possible. Stupid restriction IMO. Hope one day we'll find a workaround.
hi guys,
so ive just came from a galaxy s4. oneplus 3 is a masive step up. This may sound stupid but how do i change the lock screen wallpaper, there where many ways to do it on the S4 but i just cant find a way to do it on the oneplus 3, thanks in advance
Long press empty space on display, pick wallpaper on lower left, it shows 2 wallpapers and you toggle between lock (L) and home (R)

I tried and could not for the life of me find where to set lockscreen wallpaper, I can only find the option to change desktop to whatever I wanted.
I CAN however, change the lockscreen background to one of my ugly photos that I took, but not the stock wallpapers if I use gallery to set it.
The main thing I really wanted to do is to change the lock screen wallpaper to a dynamic wallpaper called Starfield 2, it is a black background with start wizzing by type of wallpaper, and more likely than not it would be saving energy on an AMOLED display. Plus, they just looked so much better than a standard bright and colorful wallpaper that never changes.
I dont think u can do live wallpapers on the lockscreen

I uninstalled the stock gallery already so I can't check there, but if I go into my gallery (QuickPic) I can select a picture, then go to the top right three dots, "Use as" and then I have to option to set it as lockscreen picture.

not on oneplus 3, but you can do that easily on Sony Xperia Z2 and other products (I got Z2 and Z4 tablet here, both does that just fine).
Does anyone know, how to change wallpaper without stock launcher?
Or better, how to set system to use the same wallpaper for lockscreen as my launcher?
I know that this is an old thread, but I'd like to see on lockscreen the same wallpaper I set on the system.
Is there a way on OOS 3.2.6?

Anyone found a solution? I want to use the google wallpaper apps daily backgrounds but it can't apply lockscreen wallpapers, only homescreen. Can we just delete the lockscreen wallpaper with a root explorer?
