I am using the windmill live wallpaper and the wallpaper does not show the correct sunrise and sunset. I have the same issue with beautiful weather live wallpaper. Anyone know about a solution, or is this an issue with ICS?

I'm having the same issue. It switches to the night scene 6:30 pm and the Day scene at 6:00 am. I've tried the GS3 windmills LWP and the Secret wallpaper 1 from the GS2. Both switch at those times.

Using Evils Sense ROM, and the weather/clock widget I had this idea.
I use this as a background:

which has this look when the weather widget interacts on initial screen wake up:

So, in the morning time when it shows a moon as the current weather and some clouds glimmer across my screen I thought how cool it looks. As it gets sunny outside and the weather depicts that, the sun glimmers on the screen when you first wake it which looks pretty neat with the moon background.
I started thinking, is there a way to get an interactive live wallpaper to use the time zone detection and time of day to change as the day goes on?
Either in terms of simply changing from a moon during the night to a sun as the sun comes up to a sun set as the sun goes down or even have the wallpaper interact with the current weather.
Just an idea that I thought would be really neat and I'd like to use personally.
The grass wallpaper that comes with stock does that.
And "Beautiful Widgets" has a Live Wallpaper that takes the LWP Grass and adds Weather to it...
So, it's all been done.
Hmmm, don't I feel dumb now
Did not know though. Never used either of those.
So I'm a slightly stupid newb, I got my phone all set up and love it but miss the live map wallpaper, is there anyway I can be reunited with my dear sweet wallpaper?
I'm using bionix 1.2.1
Similar to screensaver managers you'd find on other OS's? My preference is for it to randomise upon startup, anyone got any ideas? Is there a way to do it via Tasker?
Please bare in mind that I'm asking how to randomise live wallpapers, not standard, thanks!
There's an app called Multipicture live wallpaper. Allows you to choose a folder or album and lets you set things up. All you do is double tap screen if you want to change on the fly or let iit randomize on its own. This also puts a different picture on every screen. THE drawback is this app isn't ICS supported yet. It doesn't work on stock launcher. BuT if you get ADW launcher it works on that for some reason.
That's not for live wallpaper though is it?

Appreciate your guys time, but you're missing the point of the thread
I've used an app called Zedge on my Incredible2 and my Nook Color running Cyanogenmod 7 to download and set wallpapers and it has an option to randomize which wallpaper is displayed and change it automatically at an interval you set.
I haven't tried it on my TFP or ICS yet but I would recommend giving it a shot.
I have activated the live wallpaper with the weather background running.
As it's the first time I've used it on my S3 and my old S2 I'm not sure how it affects the performance of the battery or the phone!
Anyone have any feedback on live wallpapers, is it better to leave them off or do they have no effect.

I guess the weather is updating every hour or so, just as the widget, so no big deal. About the wallpaper...I think that each of us is seeing the wallpaper just 5% of the time we use the phone. Most of time the screen is off (no wallpaper running) and when is on we are using it (calls, games, messaging, etc), so that wallpaper shouldn't use more than 1% of the battery. Just my 5 cents.
I use a sony one and the battery is fine, but is not updating all the time o.0 just my 3 weather widgets (diff apps) slices and dunno what else haha
This is my 6th Android upgrade and the first to seemly not allow me to set a live wallpaper as my lock screen. Anyone have any success doing this? I've told the live wallpaper to set to lockscreen but it does nothing. Live wallpaper isn't even an option when I choose wallpaper from Lockscreen in the Settings. There are probably ways around this, but those will likely lose the fingerprint support.
Edit: I used custom ROMs on all of those previous devices, btw. Was I simply spoiled??
Definitely Rom-specific. Was not available as an option on the G4 either
