Does it exist?
This is hands down the coolest app ever and it's the ONLY reason I haven't flashed CM9 on my touchpad.
Is there anything even close to this app for android.

I haven't tested any of these on my TP, but
here and here are apps that should be able to do the job.
The best way to do this I found was:
1. downloading a similar Android app (I'm using "Wallpaper Changer"),
2. getting the "Wallpaper Switcheroo" files you downloaded accessible in Android (I downloaded them to a PC and then back to Android in a new folder), and
3. In Wallpaper Changer, make the files your default folder, set to randomly change at x-interval and voilà. All set.

Cool thanks, do u know if switcheroo automatically downloads new photos after a while? or is it always just a default set.
Multi Picture Live Wallpaper app in Market works well.
I have a different wallpaper for each of my 5 homescreens plus a sixth wallpaper for my lockscreen.

yes it works you must have rooted your phone
i copied Gallery3D.apk from my x10i to my x10 mini pro on sdcard, with root eplorer copied into system/app ( sure you mount rw) and set permissions to 644 (user read-write,group read,others read)
and with adw launcher i put a shortcut on my screen
long press on screen, other short command, Select Activity, Activities, scroll to galerie and choose it, now you have a short cut for 3d gallery
download gallery3D.apk from here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=826849
better download GalleryFixedCamera.apk frome here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829571 thanks sanjay_bandaru
now you can launch the app fom app drawer on your homelauncher and you can launch camera directly
and look for a nice black theme, http://www.mobil-talk.de/android/6857-theme-mini-goes-black.html worked too, thanks to Bueffel
sry for bad english
I've been "reading" (I don't speak German) the black theme thread, but I don't know what files I have to download for my x10 mini (not pro) with android 2.1 (nordic firm).
Can anyone help me?
basically the last 2 added (which you could have imagined by name 2.0.xxxxx^^)
i think in order to change the most things framework does the job
to get fully black theme you'll need to change the apps as well.
change it as descrebed here in the forum section as any other theme as well
greets Mo
Great find on that black theme. Personally its better than the blue theme but just to black here and there for my liking. I find pulpoff and draco_ag's theme for the 1.6 (hopefully to be ported to 2.1) more pleaseing to the eye a tad greyer here and there. But i appreciate the work done

@ abhi98228 hmm for me all worked, no problem with market.
@iphonepimp what working with default launcher? 3d Gallery? Check the GalleryFixedCamera.apk on my first post, it worked.
I like the gallery... but there is one bug with the detailsbutton... it's to big (the button on top if you choose a image).
I copy a smaler picture from the apk over the big detailbutton to fix this, but can't resign the apk correctly. I attached my apk (you have to remove the old app, then install the new apk) and the smaler image. perhaps someone can correctly resing the apk with the image.
Thanks for the new apk. works well.
This is nice thanks a lot!

Searched through a couple of threads on getting the wallpapers to show up properly but wasn't able to find a definite solution and after spending a couple hours trying to figure it out here it is:
This will allow the wallpaper to span all 5 screens of ADW launcher (or any other launcher I would imagine) without pixelating or distorting.
Create a background that is 1200x1024 and in PNG format (I used PNG 24bit since that is what the stock wallpapers are at) and put the picture in the My Files\Wallpapers folder on your device memory.
Go to the Nook settings>Home>Set Wallpaper and select the wallpaper you want to use form the "Wallpaper" tab and not the "Photo Gallery" tab.
After applying the wallpaper go back to the home screen and you will have a nice clean background that spans all screens and isn't distorted.
This was starting to annoy me enough to post about a possible solution. I will do this as soon as I get off work.
Thanks!

I found this in another thread: you can also get a market app called Wallpaper Set and Save. It also sets your wallpaper of choice in the proper resolution.

I tried the Wallpaper Set and Save app but found that it still enlarged the image and cut off the top and bottom somewhat.
resizing them to 1200x1024 and saving them in .png did the trick
although this one is not 1200x1024 (the original isnt either) here's a default wallpaper for contrarians

The default wallpapers are 840x1024, but they aren't big enough to fill the multiple screens of ADW
What I did was turn the nook horizontally and set the wallpaper. Make sure you don't turn it over until the wallpaper is set. Once the wallpaper is set you can turn it back vertically and it should come out ok. This was the only way I could get the wallpaper to not be zoomed in.

Yeah, it does cut it off some, but not a big deal to me... the resolution is great, and it doesn't require photo resizing on a desktop. Depends how particular each person is about getting every inch of the image (I'd imagine this app would suffice for many).
I use Flikie Wallpapers HD which is free in the app store. Has many different types of wallpaper and they fit the screen perfectly regardless of if you're using one screen or seven screens.
Flickie wallpaper HD worked perfectly for me. I have been looking for an app like this. Thanks!
I got another solution.
But this only work with one wallpaper.
go to system/framework/
Look for framework_res.apk
Then use 7z to edit it.
Replace the default_wallpaper.png you'll get a better quality wallpaper.

Your not missing anything my friend. You are using a different OS than the OP. He sounds like he's still running stock, where as you have CM7. There are no "Nook Settings" in CM7.
Thanks - That's what I thought , then I guess I am stuck with malfunctioning wallpapers on my CM7

Thanks guy its gre8
how can i get these images from phone? where are they in the system?
Would also like to know how to add images to the wallpaper gallery.
Ever since installing ICS it now only lets me crop my damn images resulting in part of the image, seeing as I can only expand the orange square so far
Tried it with both the old & new galleries as well, guessing its an ICS issue as it happens on my tablet too (also on ICS)
If it doesn't expand to the full size, it means the downloaded picture is larger than 960x800 which is the scrollable resolution. Try opening the file in Paint or Photoshop and adjusting the resolution.

If downloaded from a browser, they should be in App drawer > My files > Download. Otherwise if you're using a wallpaper app, check it's corresponding folder in My Files. Hope that helps.

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.

After perusing the Nexus 10 Themes and Apps forum, I was motivated to finally try out a custom launcher. I successfully installed Apex Launcher and the Sphere Theme icons on both my Nexus 4 and Nexus 10 and really liked them. However, I then saw what some people were able to do with custom wallpapers via apps such as MultiPicture Live Wallpaper.
Unfortunately, that's where I started to run into trouble. Even with the assistance of the wonderful niteowl360, I have been unsuccessful getting MultiPicture Live Wallpaper to display correctly. All attempts to set a wallpaper through the app result in "Screen #: Picture is unavailable. Need to setup or reload."
I have also run into an issue where other wallpaper apps also simply display a black screen when I try to set an uncropped picture as the wallpaper.
I was wondering if anyone else has run into this issue and found a way around it. Is it Apex launcher causing problems with uncropped live wallpapers?
(Apologies for not putting this on the Themes and Apps forum, but as a new member, I can't post there.)
Make sure the location to your wallpapers you want set is dead on, even capitals matter. Best to use something like Solid Explorer or ES Explorer to see the exact name of the path, you can even copy and paste it. I had that problem because I had a capital off.

At no point does it ask me to input the location of the wallpaper. When I select "Single Picture", it displays my gallery and I can select any picture on my device (or in Picasa, though I've been trying with one that I know is on my device, because that seems like it would work better).

Okay, I have gotten it to where I can specify the exact directory and file, but it still hasn't resolved the issue. Is there a specific file-type or location required? I've tried both .png and .jpg, to no avail.
