Live wallpapers - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

I am running an aosp PAC ROM on my note 2. I just wanted to know how big of an effect live wallpapers would have on my note 2.

If it's of any value, I get great (about 45% when I go to bed, medium-heavy usage) battery on my CWM S4 with little attempt to save battery (just disable what I don't use, not everything) and live wallpapers... They're pretty neat
Hope that's what you're looking for

I use the weather live wallpaper and battery seems just about the same. Sure I assume few % change but nothing too drastic.

I use static to do this with my home screen...

I wish I used lwp. But I can't find any good ones. Only ones I like are phase beam and nexus but phase beam annoys me because it doesn't scroll and nexus o wish I could change the background. Other lwp just always make my icons and clock and stuff hard to see or the wallpaper colors don't match my phone enough or something.

How did u make this wallpaper? Or where did you get it from? Really like it
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I find my wallpaper stunning !
If you don't mind the background being a battery killer, I use Electricsheep. It's really trippy and all my friends comment on it the first time they see it.
I use static. I don't get enough benefit out of the live to justify the battery drain.

Go with static. The battery needs all the help it can get!

I bought nexus revamped pro from the play store and you can put other backgrounds and customize it to your hearts content. I like it especially as you can set it to just show a wallpaper after your battery reaches a percentage of your choosing - battery wise I still get 15-16 hours with around 3 plus hrs of screen time.

Everybody uses that YouTube tutorial home screen. Its becoming a lot less cool. I use the Galaxy Pack which is a dope collection lwp.

[Q] Ripple Effect Not Working

I really love the ripple effect of the lock screen for the SGS3. Am I able to use it with a different wallpaper (other than stock)? It won't let me select ripple, because I'm using a different picture, but it's not a LWP. Does ripple effect only work with the preselected, stock wallpapers?

Yeah, I'm running XquiziT v26. I couldn't get it to work when it was not rooted and stock, also.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Im on v26 as well. So youve never had it working??? Thats just odd.
In lock screen options are you certain you have ripple effect checked?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Weird thing is:
It was blacked out, but I found out why. I was using a third-party application to set my home screen/lock screen wallpaper. For some ought reason, the phone confused the static pictures with live wallpaper. So, I saved one of the wallpapers and opened it in a photo viewer and set it as my backdrop. Sure enough, when I checked, the "ripple effect box" was no longer grayed out.

Thanks anyway for replying. Obligatory "thanks" for the effort on your part.
If need-be, a mod can close this thread.

Note 2 blinkfeed

Just wondering, is their any way by which I can get the HTC one interface like blinkfeed on my note 2...
Any launcher perhaps...
Any idea...?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Try taptu from the market.

Rapture is not exactly what Iam looking for.... Its a widget..
I guess some launcher can do the trick.. Something close to flipboard.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
I had blink feed on my HTC One and that's what it is, a widget. The closest I was able to come to replicating that on my note 2 was Taptu.
Let me know if you find anything that is closer to it.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
maybe Pure News widget. I use this, the biggest one on my whole 1home screen. Its almost the same, but without pictures.
For now, and probably won't be sorted for a while, BlinkFeed relies on HTC's framework for it to work. Therefore it's not possible. The closest you'd probably be able to get would be using multiple UCCW widgets.

I'm running stock ROM now I switch back and fourth between asop and lg custom ui but I like my qslide apps that I have on my lg optimus I was wondering how to make battery life better like it is with asop ROMs like carbon thanks buddy
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
The biggest thing that kills battery's is widgets and background apps that update frequently.... Minimize the apps update frequency and minimize ya widget use and along with brightness Control u should see a pretty good jump in battery life...

Word cause qslide is the bomb thanks bud for the advice and asop ROMs lose data when a call comes in why is that

Does browser work on Qslide? Also for battery saving on rooted devices, look at Greenify
Yup browser works flawlessly

[Q] Can I change the UI/launcher as easily as the Notes 2?

Hello, TouchWiz and the dock on the right seem to be integrated into the Note 10.1 2014. Can I change the launcher and user interface easily on the Note 10.1 2014 as if it were the Note 2?
As on every android device you can change the launcher by installing lauchers from the playstore. I can recommend nova launcher which is perfect for customization and speed

Never had any issues regarding battery life guess this is a result if a widget keeps updating itself but like I said from my personal experience there was never such an issue

It's only marginal but every device I've had nova does drain the battery quicker
