Another noob ? lol What was the Samsung Live Wallpaper that was removed with the touchwiz update. You could tap the screen to change color before applying it. I had a sky with clouds that moved. Thank you
I believe the name of that wallpaper is Magic Smoke.
Thank you that is it. Was it removed from everyone?

On my phone running 2.3 the lockscreen shows whatever wallpaper I normally have including live wallpapers. However, it looks like in 3.1 you need to choose a separate wallpaper for the lockscreen and it won't let me choose a live wallpaper. Does anyone know a work around for this?
I don't know it, but it would be nice to have!
+1 would like to know too!

Bah I was trying to figure this out myself!
Someone please figure this out
Even with 3.0 on the tab you got the live wallpaper on the lockscreen. The 3.1 update brought with it the (for lack of a better term) "dead wallpaper lockscreen".
All I can figure is that this must be their way of goading us into making custom roms...

Yes, while using the Desktop Dock in clock mode you get the currently selected Live Wallpaper. Can't find a way to get this on the lockscreen though. Perhaps 3.2???
My Xoom on 3.1 had live wall lockscreen so it can't be a 3.1 issue. While it's nice to have the option of separate walls, it would also be nice to have the option to have the same live wall across the entire device....you listening sammy?

Any update on this?
WidgetLocker doesnt look right on the tablet...
When I flashed the pda md5 in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1119492) it worked perfect. Then I flashed Bonsai and it went back to no live wallpaper...
Got to be an easier way?
Also running Bonsai. It's annoying as it seems like the 'dead' wallpaper which is setup in the default settings actually overwrites the live wallpaper being displayed under the lock screen. The live wallpaper is there, just covered up.
Example: using Multi Picture Live Wallpaper, set the lock screen wallpaper to some distinct image, and the desktop to another image. The lock screen wallpaper will default to whatever is selected in the tablet settings. When you unlock, you should see a flash of the selected lock screen 'live' wallpaper which is displayed 'under' the dead wallpaper...
I played with settings in Multi Picture, but it doesn't seem to be able to override this.
Hi everyone, i'd just like to share this little custom UI tutorial using ADW EX, Multipicture live wallpaper and simple text. I had just had a lot of questions on how I had set up my simple text icons and how I did my UI in general, so i'm going to show you
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kptguUktJA
Cheers!
A step by step tutorial would be great. At least to get the full effect. Your setup is definitely pretty nice.
Yeahhhh , agree with that!!! , You do it like a very general way , It would be great if you could backup your adw ex settings , and tell us which animations transitions you use and detalis like that.
I saw the video , but my tablet is far way from look like yours
sorry 4 my english

Which widgets do you use for the Calendar and Music?
Very nice, but too complex for me LOL, i've tried few of those "Launchers" but too many options to play with and not easy way to understand them. You gotta have bunch of time to understand all of that.
I uninstalled them all.
That's what i said, a step by step tutorial

I see,
In ADW ex, make sure you have UI settings -->Screen Preferences--> 10 desktop rows and 10 desktop columns and Hide status bar selected
General behaviour ---> Animations and effects: My scrolling speed is 1800, bounce is 9, wallpaper scrolling is enabled
Mulltipicture live wallpaper just has double tap to change picture and show reflection on top/ bottom..
Not much else I can think of, if you get stuck just give us a yell

Any idea where Simple Text stores the buttons it creates? I want to reuse them and not recreate for each page. Thanks!
I have customized ADW to have 10 rows and columns. Now there is long space between icons on home screen. How do I rectify?
Ignore. Icons are working fine.
Is that calendar app Jorte or Jotre? I managed to find Jorte in the market.
If I use "Hide Status Bar" setting, the status bar is still visible. On top of that, if I click on settings, then the menu is partially visible on the screen? Any suggestion?
When I used that Simple Text, I just got an icon on screen, I can't get that text like you got it...
Im having similar errors as the above post. I cant make the adw launcher top bar go away for the life of me. And in the multi live wallpapers it freaks out and freezes the picture when I reach the last page of five and it wraps around to the first one. It doesnt transition there. Any ideas on fixes? I've done each and every setting in the multi wallpaper app for fixing that and none work...
OP, how were you able to use a live wallpaper with the multi livewallpaper app?

Heya,
At this point it's impossible. Multi livewallpaper only works with image files atm
Haven't tried .gifs but there's not much point + that's kind of lame haha.

Actually, I'm thinking what just hasn't been made entirely clear is that the exodus live wallpaper wasn't actually being run as part of the multi live wallpaper. Video editing just gave the impression that the live wallpaper spontaneously appeared.

Whoops! I'm sorry if it appeared that way, yea, exodus is actually just a live wallpaper and not part of mulitilive. You have to switch if you want a live wallpaper..
coooool! im gonna do this now
i have the same wallpaper for my lockscreen and homescreen but the wallpaper is never aligned, when unlocking screen the picture appears to move up by 2mm, it doesn't match the same position of lockscreen wallpaper. I did have this problem with live wallpapers but that has now disappeared, i only get it with pictures and photos now, i set wallpaper by using 'Home and lock screens' option so not sure what is going wrong.
can someone help??

stock launcher, stock rom lg8 too.
I'm noticing the same thing with my stock SGS3 where the lockscreen pattern image is noticeably a darker, lesser quality image than the home screen one as well as being slightly skewed by a millimetre or two. I realise it's no big deal, it's just a bit annoying.
Any suggestions?

I encounter the same problem on my xperia. It's way off to the right on mine, by around 2 cm. I know it's just aesthetics, but it annoys me greatly. Would be great if someone knew how to fix this.
Edit*
Funny. It fixed itself after a few reboots
Hai,
I am having a problem with the scrolling of a live wallpaper which I recently downloaded. When switching between homescreens, the wallpaper scrolling stutters horribly and causes the homescreen animation to stutter too. From what I can tell, the problem is not performance-related, as the UI is still running at 60fps while it stutters, so I think it might simply be a problem with the wallpaper.
Is there any way to disable live wallpaper scrolling? The wallpaper itself does not have this option, but I am wondering if there might be another way?
The wallpaper is called "Sakura Falling Live Wallpaper" on the Market.
Thanks! :3

Dude,
I think it's a bit harsh that you've left the dev a user review on Google Play page saying that his app needs fixing when you've only tried it on an unofficial leaked ROM.

I would not have done so were it the case that the ROM could be responsible. The same problem occurs on my ICS Transformer Prime.

Which ROM are you on? Some offer simple flashable mods for disabling wallpaper scrolling (it's a simple integer value in systems).
Also, are you using Stock TW, or an external launcher?

I am on the SuperNexus ROM with the stock Jelly Bean launcher.
So the stock wallpaper on the Galaxy S4 goes all the way to the notification panel at the top and makes it transparent which i love. I figured i would try and load a custom wallpaper and it would do the same thing, no go! This is kind of disappointing that the stock wallpapers have dimensions that sideloaded wallpapers dont. Has anyone figured out a way to cover that area so it looks as nice as the stock wallpapers.

This is well known, Samsung has come out and told us you only get the transparent notification bar on their wallpapers. Their reasoning, which makes sense, is that they don't know what kind of picture you would be using, and certain backgrounds would make the navigation bar text unreadable.
The only thing I can think of is if you use Nova Launcher, you can enable "transparent notification bar" somewhere in the menu, that might let you do that with all wallpapers.

You don't need the lock screen with Nova. Lock screen is a different APK. You can still change the two by going into your settings -> My device -> Display -> Wallpaper and then pick Lock Screen or Home Screen.
Here is my issue. I've gotten my luck screen to be transparent v by luck. I tested that luck changed wallpaper and lost transparency. Anyone else run into this

You could replace one of the stock wallpapers. I looked and they are packaged as drawables in the wall paper chooser apk (SecWallpaperChooser.apk). I may try to do it...it is essentially like making a theme.
BTW, the stock wallpapers are 1920x1920...I guess so they work in landscape?
