For a long time I have avoided live 3d wallpapers for several reasons but since the poco has such a huge battery and having found the "Betta" wallpaper from Marcellus, which is just gorgeous, I deviated a little from my principles. Have a Look!

However after about 5 seconds on 60 FPS the phone lowers the resources allocated to the walloaper and the framerate drops somewhere below 20, possibly for power saving reasons. When I touch the phone the framerate goes up again for another 5 seconds before dropping again. I tried turning off power saving for both the launcher and the wallpaper without success. Maybe it's a kernel thing but I would love to hear from someone experienced... Thank you!
@maitrot I had Nova launcher with Sony Live wallpaper and it was consistently smooth. No frame drops on live wallpaper.
However, note that I have ArrowOS 5th February build + F1XY kernel 0.08 beta 5 build.
Oh yeah, I forgot the most vital information. I am on stock rom only, still have not passed the 7 bootloader wait days...
I was curious about that Betta LWP, so here's the store URL and the included video...

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone could help me get the 3d flip animation to work on my Hero clocks. I have checked out every preview on youtube and seems like Hero does have the feature especially when you unlock the screen.
My device does not do that for some reason and I've tried to switch from one rom to another and still can't get it to work.
I would appreciate if someone could enlighten me as I really love this phone and have been showing it off infront of my iPhone owning friends
Thanks to all in advance

its been removed on the rom update cuz it takes up too much resources

IMHO, it never did take up too many resources, or was a specific performance issue. It was just that some people saw it as one.
It was just that the clock widget didn't update when the phone was sleeping or otherwise occupied. It *still* doesn't either - I often wake my phone from sleeping and see my clock is some hours in the past until it changes to a new time. It just does switches "instantly", rather than running an animation now.
Regards,
Dave
Ok, so if I wanna see it again I have to roll back to the initial ROM and suffer with the lagginess. No good news
Thank you guys for your feed back.

Animating Flip Clock Widget
I have a clock widget with a real animating flip, which does not require sense. Check my thread.

I can recommend this, if you want to have the Nexus live wallpaper
Not sure if it's been fixed yet, but in the version I used, touch interaction was odd. Instead if the usual Nexus thing, the animation just sped up like crazy, until all the thingies were gone off the screen :|

Maybe I am too harsh when giving an opinion on new app, but it is hard to not be honest. I am not going to comment on the execution, but rather the idea.
Do you think there are many people that would put a realtime rendered 3d background on their phones. Top-end phones are struggling to run android without live backgrounds and a 3d one is sure not going leave much performance for widgets and stuff.
Battery life is off course the other thing. I know what a 2d live background does to the battery, imagine a 3d one.
Thanks

Hi, actually i try it on 4 phones and 1 tab(galaxy s3, s4, nexus 4, nexus 7, galaxy tab 3 and xperia U!!) and works pretty good, the battery consumption increase aproximetly among 5 or 15% and it doesnt consume to much resources, i thought the xperia U (1 gh dual core 512 ram) will be to slow but i notice it moves pretty smooth!!, give it a try, and if you can send me your opinion about consumption of battery and your device i will thank you!!
By the way it also pause the animation when screen is off
I noticed this the first day I had my phone, but thought it was just a fluke or some new touchwiz feature akin to the "linens" that iOS 5,6 had. But my note 3, white now on full stock MJ4, never rooted or tampered with yet seems to have some banding and aberrations with displaying medium grays. I have attached a screenshot that you can download and try for yourself. I am positive this is a bug, and with my limited knowledge I feel it is a software issue more than a hardware one that will hopefully get fixed.
Steps to really see the problem:
Download my screen shot on to your Note 3 (or open chrome browser, remove all windows so it is the gray background with the product logo as attached, then screen shot it yourself)
Do the following in a dark environment to see it best. (please)
Open the screenshot in gallery.
Zoom into it and pan around.
Play with different brightness settings and see if the banding with grays is more evident.
Turn on screen rotation, rotate screen.
Zoom and pan on the same screenshot in landscape view to see that the banding is apparent still only on the Y-axis, proving it was not part of the image.
I attempted to capture this on video and even scan it in my scanner, but it wasn't obvious like it is to my eyes. I want to know, does this affect other people's note 3s? If so I won't care as it really isn't a problem. But if it's just my handset, then I want to get it swapped out instead of risking a bad screen or any other on board hardware. I am most worried because the problem is different day to day and the banding seems to be greater towards the bottom of the screen
If you did all this, thank you!

Same issue here as well as my girlfriends N3. If you mess around with the different display settings (dynamic, professional photo, etc) it increases it or decreases it. I've only noticed this with Chrome however. I will boot up my Evo 3D to see if it does it on there as well as my 2k12 N7.

I have this S23 Ultra for 3 weeks ish now and it was amazing on battery with YouTube ReVanced often getting 8-10h screen on with YouTube easily with 30+% left. Suddenly today it got pretty hot and battery drains like crazy in YouTube ReVanced.
I repatched the newest supported version, clean installed it, updated to latest microg, full shutdown and cold boot of the phone, cleared caches, nothing helps. Both on wifi and 5G the drain is this high.
Auto brightness was my second suspect and I checked the slider in the notification panel and it behaves normally. It responds to changes in ambient light as normal during YouTube and isn't overly high.
Anyone have any ideas what can cause it?
Check the screenshots (in Dutch unfortunately) for the difference in screen on and YouTube usage times.
8h+ sot and like 40% left so good:

Today, bad. Only 5+h screen on and way less YouTube and battery is basically empty.
update it, the icon even changed since then. You're on a old revision.
A big factor is what your screen brightness was when watching videos. If you watch videos in low brightness (like during nighttime), then there will be a big difference to battery life compared to watching videos in high brightness.
No problems here

Icon is manually set with Goodlocks theme engine from UX LED icon pack
But, i'm an xxxxx. I figured it out. It wasn't YouTube at all...
I got a new driver's license yesterday which I keep between my back case and the phone. This new one has NFC... It was just scanning NFC all day long with the phone unlocked... This apparently doesn't show up anywhere in battery stats.
Obviously I have NFC basically always on for Google Pay and such so yeah.
I can't keep my license in there anymore as there seems to be no real way to keep NFC on for pay but not read stuff constantly.
I'll figure something out. But problem solved.
