Hi, I have a custom rom, without any Live Wallpapers installed. So I was looking for the new 2.3 Nexus S Live wallpaper. I found a .apk here on XDA, moved it into /system/app (rw-r--r-- or rwxrwxrwx), rebooted the phone and it still does not work.
Also found a supposed 2.1 stock .apk, also unable to make it work via /system/app, just installed it, but they closed themselves after awhile.
Anyway, can someone upload to the the stock 2.1 live wallpaper apk or if someone known how to apply the nexus s, I would be thankful.
Thanks in advance.
Which custom ROM are you on? That info can help us here solve the problem better.

I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but if you search "gingerbread live wallpaper" on the market the first result should be a live wallpaper by Steven Lin. That should be what you are looking for.

Maybe you saw the weather animation. Don't worry I though it was a Live Wall too at first
Life wallpapers are not included with the leak.
There is a YouTube vid of a Moto Droid running live wallpapers, but I haven't seen any on the Eris.
The droids been rooted, that's the reason they work
launcher2 needs android (google) framework to work, so htc framework for sense will cause endless FC.
So does that mean that we will never be able to have live wallpapers on the Eris?
Until root, its not possible. After root, I'll see what I can do.
Im rooted how can i put live wall papers on my phone

I have always loved the Microbes LWP the Nexus S has. I was wondering if anyone at all has got it to work on their Atrix. I've tried installing, but it won't load up as the wallpaper so I'm guessing somewhere in the file is a setting and that setting needs to be changed to fit with the Atrix (I guess you call that porting)
If anyone gets this live wallpaper to work it'd be really great.
Thanks
i second this. maybe need to ask in the nexus s forum?
YEEEESSSS PLEASE SOMEONE PORT THIS THING OVER!!! From what I read a lot of people including me think this is the best wallpaper and we'd love to see it on our Atrix.
hopefully some will make a step by step guide for this
Do you have link to it so I can download it?

Hey all,
I tried searching but couldnt find what I was after.
I noticed you can change the font on the phone, and I read a post on one of the forums, which pointed out where to get new fonts, but I cant find it.
Can you do it without rooting the phone ?
Anyway hope you guys can help?
Biff.
Goto setting>display>screen.
Im thinking he wants to download new fonts and add them as he has stated he already noted he can change fonts.
The ubuntu font is marvellous. There's a free app downloadable from the market that make you download a lot of good fonts, the ubuntu one too.

What's the app called?
There is also a flipfont thread here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894397) which has heaps and heaps of different fonts.
It's in the I9000 forum, but they work just fine on the I9100 (I've installed a few).
Hi all
I've just updated to a new rom - GingerMod 0.8. Unfortunately the new rom doesn't have the live wallpaper I really liked. It was Japanese Acer leaves floating on water with a reflection of a tree in the water - really beautiful. You could create ripples in the water by touching the screen. Does anyone know where I can download this?
Thanks
Frank

I think that this site is what you need
http://www.downloadonline.info/2013/02/23/lghome3-theme-download/
I apologize in advance for my ignorance, but what exactly is the LGhome3 and what will change if I use one of the one's that where linked above me? I see there is LGhome.JB4.apk and some others. I think i have an idea what LGhome3 is, but i guess im not exactly sure. Lol. Thanks in advance.

LGHome3 is the version of the LGHome Launcher that as far as I know, LG make it for ICS and partially upgraded with the 4.1.2 upgrade (It just add some wallpapers and some basic changes to the widgets). The LGHome.JB4.apk that you saw was a port from somebody in the community to make it available for 4.2 since the other versions FC and wouldn't work properly. Currently that port works partially and for 4.2 and FC when you try some things.
You can also see another version of the LGHome in the market called Simple Home by LGElectronics ( http://goo.gl/7eAVz ) and I think it was the version 2 since it doesn't have an app drawer, don't came with the widgets and it's compatible with Froyo 2.2.
About the themes you were looking for, LGHome has themes since version 2. Some carriers like AT&T block all the themes (I don't know why!) or only left 1 or 2 in their deploy, but they could be found at the Korean and Japanese ROMs.
Looking for a LGHome port to 4.2 I found some themes that work at http://goo.gl/bjjjr
Also found this other page where there's a link to download 10 themes for the LGHome at http://goo.gl/mKeIm
Please take note that to those themes to work properly they have to be installed in the /System/App folder (Need root access) and not in the /Data/App folder where the apps normally install when you use the installation wizard opening the apk directly. The links I provided previously have a very good tutorial of how to install them in a way that they work.
Anyway, LGHome is a very good launcher but if you are looking for another experience about themes and changing the appearance try another launchers like Nova and Apex that will give you a very Nexus 4 feeling and are very good saving battery life. Also you can use Go Launcher that have a lot of free themes. Or if you want to make huge changes or get very different experience check buzz launcher or MiHome that have some really good themes and some crazy stuff.
Go out there and try them all and every time you want to try something different, have more than 1 working launcher installed just in case and make backup of everything you overwrite in case you damage something.
Good luck.
^^ wow. That was one of the best replies I've gotten on here! Excellent! Thank you very much for the great information. That was above and beyond helpful. Thanks again. Cheers :beer:
