Do you mean that it will be better to keep the app installed and wait for the update?

I mean, right now, the installed app without images does nothing really... :crying:
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
At this point you could probably uninstall it. If I can get an update out I'll be sure to post about it here so you can reinstall. :)

Thanks for the support!

[MENTION=4513677]rwilco12[/MENTION]. Thanks for all of your work over the years. I recently went looking for some new images for my home and lock screens only to find nothing in the app. Have you thought about providing access to your repo of images through your Android repository? Just a thought.
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
I actually did try that at one point. Unfortunately, some server in Russia decided to start downloading all the pictures over and over again and it was taking up a ton of bandwidth (around 50GB in one day!!!). I was going to try and do something else to make it available but haven't had a chance to.

But since I like you, I'll PM you a Dropbox link so you can have access. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] techdog:
Thanks! That is awesome. I haven't been on XDA in a while and this was a great surprise!
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
Got another HUGE update in the works! Thanks to [MENTION=744737]JoshBeach[/MENTION] for help with theming!

I liked the scrolling in the old apps better though.

Get that S4 yet Ryan? Missing my Project-X....... Gonna make me get the S2 back out huh?

I absolutely love the update Roy. Your backgrounds set the theme for all my roms I have backed up.
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
Thanks! I actually just finished pushing another update. :D

This one is pretty minor but I had to remove the GB support for some API compatibility issues. Gonna have to figure that out...

The only other major thing in the update is that the UI has been updated to reflect the page numbers as "Page 1 of 10" instead of just "Page 1". I know it isn't much but I'm pretty proud of this piece, it's the second most requested feature after having gesture support (which I think is almost ready ;)) and believe it or not it was a bugger to code!
[Android Apps and Games] Teknician:
Well I can say gesture support would stop me from bringing up wallpapers every time I think I'm swiping to the next page. Keep up the great work.!!

Cool App. Nice work. On my Galaxy S3 the Set Wallpaper button doesn't work. Tried it on the free version, didn't work, so I bought the Pro version and it still doesn't work. Luckily, however, it does allow me to save it to storage and I can set it from there.

Just thought you would like to know.

Lots of hard work there...

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
I actually use an S3 as one of my main testing devices and it works on it.

I've had a few reports of it not working when people are using Xposed or other apps to control the brightness, color, tint and etc on their display. Do you have anything like that installed?

If you could send me a logcat I could look it over and see what's causing the conflict.

Thanks!

It was recently brought to my attention that several of my apps are being pirated and in some cases quite heavily.

In order to combat the piracy I've opted to add a few minor security features to my apps. I've pushed an update to the Play Store that should start rolling out as an update here shortly. There's nothing crazy with the new security features but it's hopefully enough to deter a few of the pirates.

Users who are using the free version or a legitimately purchased pro version should see no difference. :)

Thank you to everyone for your continued support!

CHANGELOG - v2.7 (updated 2/15/14)

- Minor UI Updates.

- Minor security updates to prevent piracy.

- Even more wallpapers!

- More to come!​
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
Just pushed another update to the Play Store! Should be hitting your devices within an hour. :D

v2.8 (updated 2/16/14)

- Massive overhaul to image preview sorting. Images now show by most recent image added.

- Removed image names from thumbnail view for faster loading.

- More wallpapers again!

- Still more to come!​
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
And in other related news Rwilco12's Wallpaper Gallery just hit 1,000 downloads!

[Android Apps and Games] Teknician:
Got it and no bugs... Appreciate your work. Has to be a way to curb that crap for an app that's so inexpensive and useful. Good luck Roy..

Update :

Got another update AND I am loving the new wallpapers. Very fast load time. We'll done....
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
Next update should include the long awaited landscape mode! I've just got to fix up the layouts... They aren't quite where they need to be yet... Lol

nice, giving a shot :)
[Android Apps and Games] akimata:
It there for now any way to change lockscreen image to same as wallpers from your app?
[Android Apps and Games] demon_shed:
This is an awesome app. Took about 3 minutes of looking at it to convince me to buy it. Love it, though I don't know if it's just my configuration but it fc's every time I go to save a pic. Not that worried by that though even without that ability for now it's well worth the coin
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
At this point you can purchase the pro version which allows image downloads and then use another app to set it. We hope to have a working solution in the app itself shortly.
[Android Apps and Games] Dark Shire:
Really Amazing app.

One problem though.

Pressing the back button causes a notice that the app has stopped in the foreground and shows a preview of the the previous image which was downloaded in the background. Pressing it repeatedly takes you back to all the images which were previewed or downloaded.

Suggestions

1. Possibility of swiping to move to the next page instead of touching the next icon to browse images

2. A possibility to shrink the image to fit the screen, cause only one part of the image is seen as most of them are quite large.

can submit a logcat if preferred

Otherwise great app

[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
Thank you for the feedback! I've not run into the error you're referring to, would you mind sending me some more specifics (device, logcats, etc)?

We've been playing around with gesture support but haven't quite gotten it where we want it quite yet.

A previous version had the option to shrink the image but it caused some crazy distortion of the images. Currently we are using the stock Android API which uses multiple screens to set the image as a scrolling wallpaper. It never made sense to me until I read this Lifehacker article: http://bit.ly/1ko1mAI We've been playing with a crop feature to see if that will have the desired results.

Thanks again!

Good app! lots of great wallpapers

Just one thing, is it possible to make so that you can save the images directly instead of setting them as wallpapers?

I want to be able to set it as custom lockscreen wallpaper

[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
You aren't by any chance using Xposed or something similar are you? I've been getting a few reports that certain mods break the set wallpaper function.
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:

[Android Apps and Games] poo706:
Just learned about this from the portal, very nicely done. I think it's just begging for the option to automatically change the wallpaper to a random image from a color category every so many hours. That'd be pretty slick.

I did finally figure out that in order to get the wallpapers centered, you need to have an uneven amount of homescreens and it centers prefect with being scrollable. I keep 5 which works great for centering.

Other than Xposed the only other common thread I'm finding is that some users of AOSP based ROMs aren't able to set wallpaper. Would you guys agree?

I just pushed an update to the Pro version on the Play Store. I finally figured out the cause of the FC when saving an image to the device. It was based around some poorly documented API changes that were introduced into KitKat that prevented calling what used to be a stock function on all prior versions in order to add the images to the stock Gallery. I'm working on a work around to get a similar function, but at least in the meantime it should no longer FC on saving the image. It may just take a few minutes or a reboot to get it to show in the gallery...

If anyone else runs into problems please let me know. :)

Thansk!
[Android Apps and Games] pakhandrin:
Not so impressive. All these wallpapares are easily available in Google Pics. Made more exclusive content not copy-cat
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
Actually the majority of these images come from several wallpaper sites. I use paperwall.com, hdwallpapers.org, and a variety of other sites.

I personally believe the beauty of the app is not just in the wallpapers. When designing the app I had one goal in mind, to simplify the process of finding a wallpaper to match a theme.

I have hand picked more than a thousand wallpapers from a variety of wallpaper sites that were high quality images I had not seen being used in themes and ROMs before. I then made those images readily available to everyone.

I do however appreciate your feedback and will strive to find more unique images that you and others can use.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] BigRitz:

Pro v2.11 - Stock based Touchwiz 4.3

Unable to view newly downloaded images saved to SD/Rwilco12 any longer with stock gallery but I see the few I saved with 2.10 before updating.

Tried wiping data on 2.11 and rebooting with same results.

Uninstalled 2.11 pro and recovered 2.10 pro from a titanium backup and I can see all saved images, including new downloads.

Updated the app via play store back to v2.11 pro and I can see all of the gallery images that I couldn't see before going back to 2.10 but still not able to see any newly downloaded images. Appears db isn't updating on 2.11 properly?

[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
Would you do me a favor and remove your SDcard, reboot the device, download an image and then check using a file manager to see if it saved to your internal storage?
[Android Apps and Games] tdunham:
Done. Deleted the folder completely and the stock gallery app does not even see the folder. Checked with a file manager and everything looks good. I even flashed the stock rom with a different kernel earlier and the pro version does the same for me there as well so I can't blame it on tweaks or anything of that sort. When I get a chance, I'll backup my internal SD and format it to see if that makes any difference too.
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
K. Unfortunately that won't do anything. The issue is antidote with KitKat. They changed an api with KitKat that prevents calling an automatic media scan for adding images to the gallery. The images should be downloading but they require a device restart or a media mount or unmount to show them in the stock gallery. There are several developers working on a work around or fix so I'm hoping to get it fixed ASAP.
[Android Apps and Games] tdunham:
What if the file were downloaded to a temporary folder first, then a standard move command were issued forcing an automatic media scan? Or, maybe it is possible to read the version of android that is running and issue a different set of commands if the phone is running Kitkat or not? Good luck with it.
[Android Apps and Games] tdunham:
Just out of curiosity, I started looking around and there is an old app called 'Rescan Media'. It takes less than a second to run, has an autoclose feature and takes care of the media scan issue.

Not really an issue for me, I rarely change out wallpapers anyway once I find one I like. :)
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
I've actually found an open source one I like that I'm trying to tweak to meet the needs of our app. It's available at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmail.jerickson314.sdscanner.

It's nice because rather than doing a full scan it creates a database of all the media files on the device and recognizes when there are new items or when things have been removed and updates accordingly.
[Android Apps and Games] tdunham:
I thought you might find something like that too adapt to your needs. That's why I posted, so you could find out what media scan methods are available. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
Version 2.12 is being uploaded to the Play Store as we speak!

* Added actionbar menu (includes links to Development Thread, full historical ChangeLog, Upgrade to Pro option and a Tell a Friend option)!

* Download functionality fully restored. App now detects which build of Android you are on and can automatically add the downloaded image to the stock Gallery. KitKat users may still need to reboot their devices (Pro version only).

* Landscape Mode!

* New Splashscreen!

* Additional minor bug fixes and improvements.

* Still more wallpapers!​

Signed wrong
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
Would you try uninstalling it and reinstalling it and let me know if it works? There was no change in the signature files and the Play Store actually won't let you upload an apk with a different signature file than the previous version. I show that there are currently 1000+ users that have migrated to the newest version and this is the first report I've had. Thanks for the heads up! I will be watching this one closely.
[Android Apps and Games] erikalin:
Hi. Nice work with the app, by the way. Just bought pro version. I'm on Kit Kat and still cannot get the images to download though. Am I supposed to do anything other than install app from market and reboot? No biggie, but would be a good feature to have. Thanks.

Sent from my Verizon HTC One M8
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
The problem with KitKat is that they removed the ability to call a media scan broadcast from the available API's. If a reboot doesn't work you can try navigating to the folder rwilco12 and see if you can see the files there. If you do and still don't see them in the gallery you could go into settings and unmount and then remount your SDcard.

Thank you for supporting us and for purchasing the app!
[Android Apps and Games] rwilco12:
