(Q) Add wallpaper to SecWallpaperChooser? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

It was done on Beans rom. He added his own wallpaper.
Curious as to the dimensions of files that need to be added. I know one has 1080x1920. But the other one is the thumbnail preview of it.
The file format in the apk is a follows:
fhd_01.png (01 can be changed to whichever number, and it looks like the app can choose either png or jpg.
Then the thumbnail preview is fhd_01_small.png. (but I don't know the dimensions).
Reason I ask is if we can add our own wallpaper to this app, the tw launcher will believe that it's a native wallpaper and automatically leave the status bar transparent.
Thanks in advance! :thumbup:

[Theme] Monochrome

Since I got my Arc, the blueish theme has annoyed me, so I decided to make a monochrome version (I called it All black earlier).
* HTC grey background in all views (se screenshot below)
* All grayscale frames
* White and grey progressbars (thanks to AdamTt for pointing me in right direction)
* CRT-off animation (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109363)
* Grey dividers in phone and music
To-do:
* Change selected text background from yellow to grey
Tested and works with .145
Suggested widgets:
* Minimalistic Text
* Simple Calendar Widget
* ADW Launcher with TextIconCreator for ADW Theme
Note:
SemcGenericUxpRes.apk, SemcMusic.apk and SemcPhone.apk is compressed to Other.zip
For framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk:
Move to /system, set permission, then move to /system/framework
For SemcMusic.apk and SemcPhone.apk:
Move to /system, set permission, then move to /system/app.
Thanks for the nice release! Look awesome!!
I've a little comment/ suggestion that is that possible to have the % battery icon in white color? If it's possible this is just perfect!
also another little request, can you also add the reboot option as well as the crt screen off animation..
Mind uploading the background seperately in a .jpg or something ? Cheers

Hi,

But please, feel free to enhance my theme - and when you do, don't forget to share

Hi,
the background is a common HTC background and is available for example here:
http://www.android-hilfe.de/attachm...wallpaper-fuer-das-nexus-s-htc-pattern_31.jpg
Cheers. I've been Googling it for 20 mins last night to no avail
how do you change the image that is behind the dialer ? and the one behind the settings ?
would like to know more so I can start playing with my own images, can you show me where to find them ?
I can find them but replacing them doesn't work

[Wallpaper] [Icons] Windows 8 tablet "Metro UI"

After watching the video demoing the Windows 8 tablet I decided to try and recreate as much of the UI as possible.
If this sounds like something you want, you'll need the following apps:
-ADW EX Launcher
-Desktop Visualizer
-Multipicture Live Wallpaper
Optional:
-Palmary Weather Pro
Setup:
-Place the adw_ex_settings.xml file into your /sdcard directory and restore settings in ADW. Or set columns to 9 and rows to 5, make sure you have widgets set to stretch in advanced and turn off wallpaper scrolling.
-Set the wallpaper in Multipicture Live Wallpaper. Or you can try Wallpaper Wizardii if you want, but even though we're only going to be using the one wallpaper I found Multipicture was easier to use.
-Place a shortcut to open/close the app drawer under "Start", use the transparent.png for an icon and delete the text. Then arrange the 2x1 and 1x1 desktop visualizer widgets as you see fit.
*Optional* Modding Palmary Weather Pro:
-Download Apk Manager from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695701
-Pull the Palmary apk and place it into the modding folder, then run the Apk Manager script and select 1 to unzip the apk.
-Unzip the weather backgrounds and icons (optional) I provided into their respective directories, overwriting the existing files.
-Press 3 to zip it back up and then press 4 to re-sign the apk.
-Install the app and change the background color by choosing different transparencies in Palmary settings.
Please note that if you edit the background png's I provided they will not work afterwards. If you want to add more colors or change the ones I included, you'll have to refer to this guide here: http://modmymobile.com/forums/404-mo...ng-images.html
I hope you like the look, and if you make some new icons or wallpapers please upload them to the thread. If enough new ones get made I'll add them to this post.
Files:
Wtab8_icons - icons, wallpaper, adw settings
Wtab8_psd_fonts - 2x1, 1x1 psd files, Segoe fonts
Wtab8_weather_mod - backgrounds and icons for use with Palmary Weather.
The Palmary icons are still kind of a work in progress, if you live in an area that gets severe weather things can look a bit busy.

You can stop here if you want, but if you want to make the Palmary Weather widget look more like a Windows 8 live tile you'll need to take some additional steps...
First you'll need to download Apk Manager from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695701
Once you've pulled the Palmary apk, place it into the modding folder and press 1 to unzip the contents into the projects folder, then simply extract the weather backgrounds and icons (optional) into their respective directories. Then press 3 to zip it back up and then press 4 to sign it. Once that's done you can install the app again. Then you can change the background color via the transparency option.
If you want to add more colors or change the ones I included, you'll have to refer to this guide here: http://modmymobile.com/forums/404-mo...ng-images.html

Use the same method used to modify the palmary weather widget on ADW. Once the apk is unpacked, find the icons and make them transparent.

Lockscreen Wallpaper - Save or Find Location?

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.
Thanks

[Q] Beanstalk shortcut icons question

I put some shortcuts in the Notification Drawer.
For changing the icons I can choose between Default, System icons and Gallery.
After I pick an icon or .jpg image with Gallery I get a message:
- The chosen app dit not return a valid icon or does not support image cropping. Use another app.
So my question:
Which icon format does Beanstalk support?
I tried .png, ico, .jpg images.

Theme with non-huawei wallpaper

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
