Ah thank for the input; but what I meant is where they put the temporary image (of what you set from an album, per sey) into the device. I did a system path dump on a text file and searched for jpg/png and didn't find anything
dunno but i think it's stored in an database

Intentional typo?
create a file .nomedia and place it in the folder/s which you don't want displayed in gallery.
Where on the android filesystem is the lockscreen wallpaper stored?
Is it different from version to version of the Android?
Or maybe it is launcher specific?
I couldn't find any mentioned of it in the SDK.
I'm not just looking for the way of setting the lock screen WP via menu, which has mandatory cropping in new TW anyways.

On launcher2.apk under /system/app/. Copy it to the PC and use 7zip to extract launcher2. I don't have my personal PC, else I would have given you the exact folder name.

Interesting, so whenever use changes lock wallpaper it get's repackaged in to that APK?
I've examined the above mentioned APK and although it contains a bunch of wallpaper images none of them is a lock screen one. Which makes sense, why the APK will have current lock screen repackaged in to it. Just doesn't make sense.
So the currently set lockscreen wallpaper must be saved either on the file system or in the launcher DB.
Any ideas where it is?

This is killing me. I've spent a couple hours now looking for the frickin' location of my lockscreen wallpaper, and was super excited to find this, the only post on the internets with a path to the file rather than a path to the default system wallpapers or some other answer to a question similar to the one asked (where's my current lockscreen wallpaper stored?), but this path isn't on my galaxy s2.
Anyone have any idea where it might be? It HAS to be somewhere, right? I mean, it's being loaded when I turn on the phone, so even though the original that I used to set it is gone, it has to be cached somewhere.

Hi, Hi, I have a wildfire with Cyanogen 197 nightly.

It should work if you stick a file called .nomedia in the directory you wish to not load. It may need to clear out the cache for the gallery and such first to take effect.
or you can just rename the file/folder you want to hide as: .(file name)
the period in the front hides the file/folder

Yeah, that should work too, but I've had apps that will freak out when you put a . in front of some folder they need on the sdcard (like beautiful widgets).
Another option is to use a Gallery replacement like QuickPic, that allows you to choose which folders are displayed within the app.

Thanks, I have adopted your method. However, Windows does not allow for files (even folders and I) so (ie, with and without dot in name), luck that I found and then copied into the SD.

hi all
i am trying for a long time and customizing my acro s. i have now come to the part where i want to change the icons in app drawer. ive read and googled alot but cant find any good solution.
is there no easier way to do this than pull the apps from the phone, changing the icon.png and push it back to phone? i dont want to use any launcher!!
do i have to decompile/compile.? or is enough just to open the .apk with 7z and change the .png
regards Drumc
and must still say, its much more easy to theme/custom a jailbroken iphone

If your just swapping the images out you can just use 7z. Personally I like to decompile the apk, swap the images, sign, then recompile but that's just my own personal preference.

damn thats a big work.. isnt it possible just to do it with root explore og something else? root explore opens the xxxx.apk and can view whats inside the drawable folder. or can i just view and not edit? btw what is the icon called? i read some places that the icon file is -ic_launcher_"appname" but youtube, trackid, browser etc, doesnt have this file..

Don't use root explorer to swap the images it's risky to do that on the device (Can cause boot loops). The icons will be in the drawable-hdpi or simmilar named folder such as drawable-mdpi.

Here´s what i did, and that did not work :crying: :
Pulled YouTube.apk from /system/app whit ADB. Opened the .apk with 7z and replaced the ic_logo_square (which is the only file i can find thats look like the icon). replaced the in all the drawable folders, with the right dimensions. 32x32 and 64x64. closed 7z
Pushed the YouTube.apk back to phone into /system/app
Pulled Conversations.apk and replaced the conv_application_launcher.png in drawable-xhdi. only folder where i could find something that looks like the icon. pushed Conversations.apk back to phone.
Rebooted the phone. and voila, nothing has changed at all!!! what went wrong? what else should i do?
ive have also read somewhere, that when changing icons, play-store will not show any updates. is that corect???

They have to have the exact same name, size, and format.

Why not just add them to downloads or wherever and select them from there?
