Hi, i only use one homescreen and was wondering if its possible to use a portrait wallpaper that focosed on the single screen. Ive googled and tried myself for a little while today but couldnt find a solution, any help would be greatly appreciated.
I think what you mean is a live wallpaper called, try it.
Sorry for my bad english.!

The wallpaper resolution should be 640x480 (or multiples of) and all you need to is 320 in the center (legend res), disable wallpaper scrolling, but if you're using a launcher (like launcherpro) you can set 1 homescreen.
Hopefully you can figure out something from what I've written, as I'm not sure what you're trying to do.
Why do you have your PC configuration in the signature? Noone is interested in non-portables here Just teasing you
Does anybody know any good live wallpaper that works on Wildfire? I recently found Shake Them All! works quite well
The ones I have found working well without lag:
- Starfield 2D
- Solar Wind
- Android Sparkle LWP
- Pixel Rain - (Currently using ATM)
But, I really wanted a Nexus One style Livewallpaper, but, sadly all lag. (Most prominent when you swipe across homescreen panes) :/
EDIT: I installed this, the performance is great (No lag), but not impressed with the touch functionality (Interaction), 'seems' its glitched. Also, no configuration options at all, but, performance is very smooth.
- Nexus Like LWP
Solar wind is Dope. Really smooth.
Yes, and it's pretty much the same for all of AOI Dev's LWPs, but, somehow, the others seem "glitched", i.e. they start flickering (And its so bright it hurts the eyes) and don't work as intended. But for the few that do, they are extremely smooth. Swiping across the homescreens is almost similar to having a static wallpaper.
They are probably the reason I look for LWPs <100kB in size.

I've tried Nexus Revamped Live Wallpaper & it works really great. A lot of tweaks especially performance. Can set it to 10-15fps with max particles 10. Really smooth

I have that, but it lagged when you swiped across homescreens. I had reduced the number of particles but had left the fps option at default.
Guess I will give it another go with a 10-15 fps setting.
Cheers
The Multipicture live wallpaper works great (and it should ^^) only thing i notice is my statusbar pulldown animation starts lagging >.>
ambient time LWP, a circuit board, typography wall, swamp water, WP clock LWP worked quite well on mah cell try dem
You can search in Market with keyword "Dragon Live Wallper". Many Live Wallper about Dragon look great. Special "Sea Dragon"
Hi all
I just installed Solar wind live wallpaper, but got message that my handset does not support it.. Is it cos my phone isn't rooted? Or something else could be problem? tnx in advance
yes, stock ROM's do not support live wallpapers on the wildfire.
I don't use any at all. It makes the app drawer laggy as well, too bad

I use launcher pro paid version, but still I can notice lag. It perhaps doesn't lag that much from transitions of homescreens, but the app drawer is not as smooth as when using a static wallpaper (at least for me)...
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.

Hey all, I made a little video of my homescreen as well. Here it is. If there are any questions, just ask.
Btw James Harrison, thanks for some inspiration

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
Hi,
It is more app development question, but as I mostly reader and don't post a lot - I have no access to dev forums yet.
I have my own wallpaper app (Awesome Nature Wallpapers) and noticed that it can't set wallpaper for lock screen when it runs on SGS3. When I test it on different phones (my old SGS1, GT7.7, Motorola Defy+, some Huawei phone and emulator) it is working fine - lock screen is transparent and wallpaper is visible, but not on SGS3.
Does anybody now how to change SGS3 lock screen background programmatically (I mean not from settings)?
Thanks in advance!

Need to use the stock gallery. QuickPic can do it as well but you still need to crop the photo using the Gallery's editor otherwise it won't work. Another option is to download a really old app called Wallpaper Set & Save. Works really well.

Sorry, I probably didn't explain properly - I'm not looking for another app to do it. I'm looking for a way to do it from my own app which I'm developing. Standard Android methods of changing wallpaper don't work for S3 lock screen background...
hello. if this has been asked before, please point me to the thread and lock this one. i am wondering if it is possible to make your lock screen wallpaper a live wall paper like you can your home screen? i know with the gs3 you could do it from settings, but in my lgog the lock screen settings doesnt have the option to select live wallpapers for it. it only lets me use gallery pics or wallpaper pics, not live wallpapers. so does anyone know of a trick to get it to enable live wallpapers on the lock screen? thank you for your time.
I just got done scouring the internet for an app or mod to do this but I came up empty. I think there was some weird limitation because there was plenty of interest for something like this and a few bootleg ideas.
The best of those is clear lockscreens which let you see a live wallpaper if one is set as your normal background, but that's the best you can do at least for now. Just search for clear or transparent lockscreens to try it.

Well you could delete(make sure to copy it somewhere first) lockscreen3.apk and you will have the ability but you lose the shortcuts and the lock screen just looks like this and the camera button doesn't even work

And I have tried the clear .png and it doesn't work. The lockscreen app has a white background behind it that I don't believe is an image, so I don't know how you would take it out.
