Animated GIFs are not by default supported in Android. It takes custom code to make them work.

Does anyone know which folder houses the live wallpapers, and where I can get HTC's photo album wallpaper? I found a rom I really like but the author removed all the live wallpapers

For default wallpapers they are in system/app
I'm running Omega ICS and using Go Launcher.
Want to save the custom wallpaper on my Lockscreen as a jpg or png file, but do not know where it is stored. Any idea?
Else I could save it if anyone knows an app/util that will save the existing Lockscreen Wallpaper? I have used the app Wallpaper Set and Save to save the Home Screen wallpaper, but cannot find a similar util for Lockscreen.
Thank you!

You mean you need the stock wallpapers??
It's mostly in the form of an app. Take a look in system/app. Might be called TWWallpapers.apk (not sure about the name though).

Thank you for the suggestion
I'm actually trying to either (a) extract the file for my existing lockscreen wallpaper (which is a family photo) or (b) dig into my nandroid backup to retrieve the lockscreen wallpaper.
For either (a) or (b), just knowing the exact location of the wallpaper would be perfect. [[ I'm running Omega v13 and using Go Launcher. Not sure if the launcher impacts the location of the lockscreen wallpaper. ]]
Or for (a) having an app similar to Wallpaper Set and Save that would save my existing lockscreen wallpaper to a jpg or png would be equally useful.
Thanks again for trying to help
Did you ever figure this out?
Hi,
anyone found location of actual lockcscreen wallpaper. image? My SD card got damaged, so I lost all my photos in gallery, and trying to save my photo set as lockscreen wallpaper.

Does anyone know of an app that I can use to let me be able to use any of my own pictures as a lockscreen wallpaper without having me crop them? I have Dodol wallpaper and picture resizer but that only helps for the mainscreen wallpaper.
Hi I have recently got a mate 10 Pro and downloaded the pixel live wallpapers. I have been able to set these as my wallpaper but I cannot find how to set these for the lock screen! Is this possible?
I have installed themes that disable the magazine lock screen but I am still unable to set them!
Any ideas?
Thanks,
James
Would also like to know.
Me too. Didn't manage to set it on lockscreen
No normal live wallpaper for lock screen but an animated lock screen,it is only multiple static pictures and an xml file which describe the progression and speed for all the pictures.
It is like the idea for MagazineUnlock
This one of the theme which have animated lock screen
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1R9gx2vkSEE0RZPzPycd7niNtlrSOMpKE/view?usp=drivesdk
Rename it to change the extension to .zip and open in it with any zip viewer.
(Or u can open it directly by choosing open with and android)
And check the unlock folder and the xml file
Hi all,
I would like to make a theme with my own animated wallpaper (in fact not really my own, it's an animated wallpaper from playstore).
The problem is: when I go to settints/themes, the wallpaper does not appear in the list...
Is there a way ?
Can you set pic as wallpaper from gallery?
I don't use stock launcher but can you press on home screen and select wallpaper?
Try themes then customize
The select home screen wallpaper.
From within playstore app can you set as wallpaper.
Well, I can customize theme with a wallpaper from the gallery (basically use a jpeg file), but I cannot use an animated wallpaper (eg. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.matitechnique.LiveWallpaper_Traces_Lite), it just does not appear in the theme customization.
I have tried to set it manually, but the mate 20 just restore the theme's default wallpaper ever and ever...

You're using an aplication. Of course it doesn't show in your gallery. Try making a GIF from that live wall, and try to add the gif. Otherwise i don't think you can do it. Basically you were trying to integrate an app in an app . Live wallpapers are apps, that renders a wallpapers, or gif's
