Can't use live wallpapers - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, this is my first post in the forum. I'm a android newbie, i was a iphone user for a long time.
I started to read stuff about ROMs and Kernels etc and got interested so i changed my kernel to siyah v2. 6.4+ and the rom to wanamlite v6.7.
I was used to apply a live wallpaper by pressing menu then wallpaper and then i had an option called live wallpapers and now i don't have this option anymore, is there any way to go around this problem and make use of the live wallpapers i install? Thanks in advance!

Not sure about Wanam lite but he may have removed the livewallpapers and whatever framework / apk is needed to run them.
Have you installed any from the market and tested as well?
Sent from my GT-I9100

same thing happened to me when i first using custom rom, but it turn out that is not the custom rom, it just the titanium backup freeze feature that i accidently selected the live wallpaper when i was freezing some unremovable samsung app

I downloaded some from the market and install them but somehow i cant select them as my active wallpaper

Hey armedking if you want the touchwiz ux icons on tw 4 launcher follow these instructions:
First you go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883 and donwload the tw4 manager and install it.
Then you go to Check for updates & uninstall and to last stable version.
A popup will appear amd ask how to install it ift you are rooted choose system/app (This will let you uninstall apps from drawer).
It will install a new twlauncher with much more options and themes.
then you make a zip with the icons wich are named as PACKAGE name of the applications you want to skin.
Then you copy it to the INTERNAL SD card and hit menu in launcher
go to themes and them Install theme.
As next step you go to choose theme and choose your zip
At last you go back to launcher menu and hit restart and save.
I hope i can help you If I did tit the thanks button

Since I do not have a GSM model. I can suggest the following.
1) Make sure you put the file in right folder.
2)Make sure it is on your phone.
3)Try to reboot.
Sorry if I didn't help much as for I don't have a GSM model. I recommend that you start a new thread for I can't help much further.

People tend to have glitches on my rom that I don't have for some reason.
Create an update.zip
(I can't do that for my rom because I've some kind of issue where the notification bar is missing and I've no clue what I can do
Also Clean Music and File Manager get installed because It's on NXT Lite base and I swear these are not in system/app or data/app)

Cant access any live wallpapers

Hi,
I am having troubles accessing live wallpapers on my i9300T GS3 - the option is simply not there when i select settings, wallpapers... there is no option to select from live wallpapers just gallery. I am thinking i may have to restore livewallpaper.apk?
I am currently running Wanamlite ROM 4.3 with Siyah kernel 1.7rc3. Any help would be appreciated.
So does anyone have a copy of the deodexed apk for live wallpaper? I think thats all i need.

I have not used wanamlite rom,but are you sure that you didnt disable live wallpapers manually before installation?Many roms have that feature.If you didnt choose to uninstall(not to install)live wallpappers check if your rom does it automatically.Look at the remove bloatware section or anything similar.Hope I helped a bit

Yes all these things are possible. A lot will depend on what ROM you are running and what you have already done to your device. If you google search for light gapps or minimal gapps you will find what you are looking for, just make sure to take a version of gapps that is compatible with your RAY and whatever ROM you are running on it. There is a pretty big list of what can and should not be deleted from your device here: http://forums.androidcentral.com/op...e-apks-their-purpose-safe-not-remove-big.html
Don't just remove anything that you "think" you don't need. Only remove stuff that you are reasonably sure is safe to remove and make sure that you have a rescue strategy ready (a nandroid back up of your device for example) in case it all goes wrong.

These types of general help threads are becoming more popular around xda and as sandy7 said, it is largely a way to keep people from opening up new threads (most of which are repeated questions). These unnecessary threads can clog up a forum and cause more important threads to sink and be hard to find. These general help threads are usually describes as new user friendly and that anything can be asked with out the asker getting flamed. That includes the dreaded "which is the best rom" question, which should be answered as politely as possible (hard I know!). If you guys care, I know of some of these other threads and I can post or PM you links, so you can see how others have done it.
I am on stock sony rom+mesa 3.8 hybrid, I created a back via TWRP, so now I want to install cm10 on my phone.
questions:
1) after installing cm10, if i restore the backup, will it backup only my data and settings? will it revert back to stock rom/the rom for which the backup was created?
2)how to switch between 2 roms(maintaining same data on both)?
3) does mesa 3.8 support init.d script?
4) how to check if init.d script is working on my device?
5) is i install any other rom, will the init.d script remain?
2. Confirm first - I know it works if it's the update of the same rom flash a new rom without wiping data, just wipe cache and dalvik, it will either work or bootloop
3, 4. If u are a noob, download pimpmyrom from store, itchecks for you and if it's not there it can make it supported, if dev there wud be a much better way

1. Nope if you restore ics backup on jb kernel you will be stuck in bootloop. Also I won't recommend you to use ics data on cm10.
2. If you are using ics rom then you can use nearly any ics rom over it without wiping data but doing all the other given wipes. Same goes for other android versions.
3. Just check in the mesa kernel thread no need to ask here.
4. If it's in the kernel then it will work. Anyways you cud do as mnishamk told u...
5. Most probably it may. Many of the ROMs here have int.d support.

Installing Stock Apps In Custom Rom
I just want to ask if I could install some stock apps to a custom rom. I have installed "xNXT™ 7" on my WT19i yesterday. The rom is nice but I want to use stock ICS (WT19i) conversations app with it. I pushed it to system/app using ROOT EXPLORER with correct permissions but after rebooting my messaging app was gone.
I tried posting my problem on rom's thread but I'm new here @ XDA and not allowed to post under development forum until post count reaches 10.
Is there any way ?
Thanks

[Q] Launcher Themes for Custom ROM?

Good Morning Everyone,
I have a quick question. I am attempting to build my own ROM, simply using CM10.1 as a base right now. I am trying to use APEX launcher as my default, however, I want to use a custom theme with it. I want the theme to be automatically applied on first boot instead of having to apply it after installing the ROM. Does anyone know how to do this? Can I just copy the "res" and "assests" folders from the theme to the launcher .apk, or is there more to it? Thanks.
