Could you add option to hide a clock? (because I'm using a cLock widget and I'd like to have a wallpaper which would change color depend on the time)
[Android Apps and Games] SeVIIn:
This is fantastic idea! I don't know if it's possible but it would be great to see a gradient option. Take for instance, the current color, the previous color, and the upcoming color then make that a gradient that slowly changed from top-to-bottom.
[Android Apps and Games] stevoh84:
Great app, I will be keeping this ready for a few more options in settings. Hiding the clock would be good, choosing sets of colours e.g. different shades of red/blue etc of multiples of both. Lots of potential on this!

I am also getting this FC when trying to activate. When I try to apply through settings, it says "App isn't installed."

I have an AT&T SGS 5 running version 4.4.2 rooted Stock with Xposed installed.

I tried both downloads; through Play Store and direct download. I hope that gives you enough info :p

Looks very polished and well done, though. Nice work!

I would also really like to hide the clock, but other than that its one my favorite live wallpaper app
[Android Apps and Games] nhansieutocdo:
great
[Android Apps and Games] dvsk69:
Good job mate! I am curious about the battery consumption. Testing!
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Currently you can't hide the clock, but since I've gotten quite a few requests for that feature, I'll definitely be adding it very soon.

And yes, it resets at midnight. Then it loops again for the next day, and so on.

Thanks for the report, I'll look into it.

Yep sure. More fonts will be coming in the next version.

So far I haven't noticed any impact on battery for the last few weeks I've been using the live wallpaper.

Personally for me, the Clock bothers me, because I have calendar to the entire desktop, but I read that you plan to add an option to hide clock.

At first I too had a problem with FC, ​​but then I discovered that I had frozen Live Wallpaper Picker app :)

Dirty modding

Hey Ho,

First Thanks the the Dev for this nice Wallpaper.

2nd i've made some hacking.

What bothered me was the small amount used of the RGB spectrum ( 0 - 23, 0 - 59, 0 - 59 ).

I've added the day of the Year ( 1 - 365 ) to the calculation and stretched the RGB values a bit.

The 256^3 RGB values fit close to two times in the seconds of a Year ( 365 * 24 * 60 * 60 ).

The 'time' will jump a bit, cause the multiplier is 0.53200202942669

( ( day_of_year - 1 ) * 24 * 60 * 60 ) + ( hour * 60 * 60 ) + ( min * 60 ) + sec ) * 0.53200202942669

will give roughly #FFFFFF at 31.12.20XX at 23:59:59

Resulting in a pure white at the last second of the year and a pitch black in the first second of the new year.

-----------------------------------------

also i misused the hide # / show # option to disable the clock at all, i know not well done. but it's one of my first steps on android programming.

hope you like my dirty mods.

Color repeats every minute. is it supposed to?
[Android Apps and Games] //.dax:
I think that choose different color palette would be nice, like if it would be #231506 then instead of #2... it would be #4... etc etc.
[Android Apps and Games] ElectronicGeek:
Sweet clock, I love the way it looks.
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Cool, maybe you could send a pull request on github?

Yeah, Im thinking about adding a multiplier feature that will adjust the colours a bit more.
[Android Apps and Games] SpasilliumNexus:
My new favorite wallpaper. I love it. Play Store donation sent!
[Android Apps and Games] Rjrocks22:
Didn't worked :(

App force-closes. I see message Unfortunately HexaTime stopped working!
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
I'm looking at all the crash logs (including a recent one from an HTC Pico which Im assuming is you). The problem is that the app couldnt find the required app to handle the intent. Did you perhaps uninstall LiveWallpapersPicker.apk from your system?
[Android Apps and Games] tonbonz:
I got this error on my daughter's 7" Chinese tablet when trying to run the app by clicking on it's widget. It runs beautifully however when set as live wallpaper in display settings. :D This would be awesome on WP8 with the new live lockscreens or as a start screen backrounds app if possible with all of MS's restrictions *hint* *hint* ;)
[Android Apps and Games] AndroGuru:
It eats up way too much RAM. 76 mb is way higher. And I don't know why it keeps Google Play billing service running continuously. Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] fanam:
Sure, i'll give the code a small cleanup, and will have a look to add a switch option for your display method and mine.

So that it wont override your work any more :p
[Android Apps and Games] Rjrocks22:
Actually I'm using custom CM11 ROM, and I guess the LiveWallpapersPicker.apk is not in my system.
[Android Apps and Games] gpvecchi:
Nice, may I suggest something that cycle the full palette in some minutes? I mean something that lets see color changing...
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Strange, it only uses about 5mb of ram on my Nexus 5. Ill look into though.

You can find the apk from another rom and put it into your system.

Maybe.

Is anyone using the option to hide the pound sign (#)? I want to remove it, but not sure if thats going to bother people.
[Android Apps and Games] Joy Bangla:
keep it
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:

I have a Nokia_XL. When I ran this app and clicked on activate the application crashes and a toast is displayed saying live wallpapers isn't supported on this device.

Before you start rambling about not having Live Wallpapers Picker installed: The Live Wallpapers Picker app is installed on my phone by the latest update and yes its a system app so I can't uninstall it.

Even double clicking on the homescreen of the app crashes it.

[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
I think I'll just leave it since the user has control over whether it's shown or not. That way everyone can get what they want :)

Well if it says that live wallpapers aren't supported on this device, that might be the problem. Have you tried using a different launcher like Nova?
[Android Apps and Games] grizzlebizzle:
This is great - only issue I have is the weird 8 on the light font where the top seems to be missing. All the other digits look good. Some more placement options might also be nice (even if you have to enter a numeric x and y offset).
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Yeah I noticed the issue with the number 8 on my older phone, but on my Nexus 5 it looks fine. I guess it's just the nature of the font, and I don't think I have control over fixing that. However I've added extra fonts in the next version so now you have some more options. (Also does anyone have requests for fonts? Current I've put Lato, Roboto, and Raleway. I don't want to have to many - probably max 5)

I've put advanced placement options on my to-do list.

And thanks to [MENTION=5801151]fanam[/MENTION], we now have an option to incorporate date into the color calculation which results in a much larger range of colors. This will be available in the next version.
[Android Apps and Games] Nikhs:
First of all, Love the concept, and looks great ! Great Work !

If I may request, Can you add an option to hide the Hex Numbers/Clock so that just to have the changing color background ? :silly:
[Android Apps and Games] _moelle:

[Android Apps and Games] Imranhakro:
Lovely App... Thanks :good:
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
This option has already been added, and will be available in the next version.
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Alright, I just pushed the update to the play store so it should be available in a few hours. If you want to get the new version right away without waiting, you can download the apk from the first post. As I've mentioned, this update essentially contains all of the feature requests that I've gotten over the past week. I also fixed a few bugs that some people were experiencing.

One of my favorite features in this version is the ability to change the color range to something larger. (as you may have noticed, the old version has a small amount of colors that circulate which can get boring after a while). The new 'Large color range' option will incorporate the dayof the year into the color calculation resulting a many more unique colors being generated - and they will be different every day! Credit for the core of this awesome feature goes to [MENTION=5801151]fanam[/MENTION].

awesome app, thank you!

question: is it possible to have the clock show up only on the main homescreen? or live wallpapers don't allow this? cause I like having it, but gets in the way of widgets on certain screens.
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
I'll look into this. It would indeed be nice to have the clock hidden on the lockscreen.
[Android Apps and Games] theDUD3:
Beautiful! Only thing that holds me from giving it a perfect score is that it lacks total control of positioning, please add this feature so that i can position the clock perfectly to my liking.

Thanks for a great app!
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
This is on my to-do list.
[Android Apps and Games] theDUD3:
Nice!
[Android Apps and Games] :
Another awesome project my the dev. Execution is beautiful and had no issues.

I really like seeing a picture as my wallpaper so I won't be using it, but knowing the dev's work I wanted to give it a try.
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Alright, I've added an option to hide the clock on the lockscreen (only display on homescreen), as well as an advanced positioning slider that gives you total control over where the clock is placed (show below).

These features, along with a few others, will be available in the next version.
[Android Apps and Games] theDUD3:
Great! When are you releasing it? Thanks for your efforts.
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Probably within the next week. I'm working on one last feature to include in the the upcoming version, so once that's finished I'll release it.

If you're wondering what this feature is, it essentially lets you pick from a few pattern overlays that will be drawn on top of the colored background. This allows users who are getting bored of the plain/solid color to view a bit more visual noise.
[Android Apps and Games] theDUD3:
can't wait. lol!
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Here is HexaTime 1.3! Lots of changes listed below:

- Implemented advanced positioning controls (user now has full control over placement of clock)

- Implemented pattern overlay feature with options for pattern style, opacity and scale

- Redesigned the settings with a material look & feel

- Added option to dim the background color

- Added option to hide clock on lockscreen only

- Lots of behind the scenes code cleanup, refactoring and improvements

- Fixed crash that some users were experiencing

As always, please give me feedback if you feel that something needs improvement. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] SpasilliumNexus:
I noticed two issues with 1.3 (I got the update from the PlayStore yesterday.)

1. Upon reboot, the time is off center vertically. Going into HexaTime and backing out fixes it until next reboot.

2. The seconds skip a certain number at random after each reboot and seems to be permanent on skipping.

I did a screen record of these two to show you these. In this recording, the number 2 skips.

Everything else seems good so far :)

[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Thanks for the report. I was aware of the first issue, and I'm currently trying to fix it, however the second issue it strange and I havent noticed yet. Do you know if that was happening on the older versions as well?
[Android Apps and Games] SpasilliumNexus:
No problem. I haven't seen the second issue happening on previous versions during my constant admiring of this live wallpaper. This one is definitely new.
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Alright, thanks. I've fixed the first issue (I'll push an update to the play store soon), but unfortunately I have no clue whats causing that other problem at the moment. I'll have to do some digging through commits and hopefully I can find the source of the issue.

Thanks again for your feedback.

Edit: Fixed it :)
[Android Apps and Games] adroidgalaxy:
This wallpaper is getting better and better since v1.

Only thing i have noticed is if overlay is on it then makes my phone laggy, almost like it's power hungry...

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 running S3Rx w/4.3!
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Yes, I'm aware of this. The reason for the lag was that I changed the wallpaper update interval to only 1 millisecond (it was previously 1 second), and I didn't realize at the time that it caused lag with the pattern overlays. I've increased the value to 500ms and now its working fine, so I'll push an update soon. Does anyone have other feature requests/bug reports that you would like included/fixed in the next version?
[Android Apps and Games] theDUD3:
for your next version can i request that you add an option to display the clock only in the main homescreen, thanks a lot!
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
I don't think I can do that, however I'm planning on adding a widget to display the clock. Then you can hide the clock from the live wallpaper, and place the widget only on your main homescreen.
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Uploaded version 1.5 which has an option to 'Reduce wallpaper updates' which fixes the lag that some users experienced when enabling pattern overlay.

Issue ? Small color range / Large color range

I love this app. I wasn't searching for anything special, and I found this thread, and I downloaded it.

I'm not really sure of what I'm saying, but it seems to me that "small color range" and "large color range" options are inverted!

When I chose "small color range" my wallpaper updates every second; and when I select "large color range", it updates something like every minute, I don't exactly know!

(I'm not native english speaker, so I may misinterpret "color range". I'm sorry if I'm wrong !)
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Your observations are correct, however you seem to have misunderstood the purpose of that setting. Color range refers to the possible number of colors that are displayed. When small color range is selected, number of possible colors is quite low. Therefore you will repetitively be seeing a few similar colors all the time (usually dark blue/green/brown). This is because small color range only takes into account the current time, and time will always range from 0-24 hours every single day. On the other hand, large color range includes the current date in the calculation. Therefore, the amount of possible colors is extended greatly. With this option selected, you will notice that a lot more unique colors will be generated, and they will not be the same every day.

I've been working on incorporating some more material-ish components in the app, so I redesigned the color picker from scratch (picture below). I'm not sure where to place the EditText that displays the hex code, so if you have a suggestion, please let me know.
[Android Apps and Games] TiiXel:
Ok ! Thank you, I understand now ! :good:
[Android Apps and Games] DeadlySin9:
I've been using this as my background for a while and I love it! Just a question and a possible request.

How is the color calculated when you include the date for color range?

And I think it would be cool to have it so if you double tap on the wallpaper it pauses the clock on a color. I know the nexus wallpaper had interactions so it should be possible and it would be an interesting feature.

[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Version 2.0 has been released. Changes are as follows:

- HexaTime has been rewritten entirely to improve on existing features

- New HSB mode which allows for better looking colours than the old RGB mode, and full control over saturation and brightness

- More background overlays have been added

- The toolbar in settings now displays a preview of the background colour

- Performance/battery life improvements and other small bug fixes

I'd highly recommend checking out the new HSB mode. You get much nicer colours than before with the original RGB mode.

Hello guys and girls,

Having troubles on my Htc One M7.

Had Cyanogenmod installed with TWRP recovery and encryption. I decided to wipe everything and go with the stock rom again. But when installed and booted up i am asked to decrypt. When i use my encryption code it no longer works. Says wrong code. I have always used the code and i am not remembering wrong.

So i tried to flash back to cyanogenmod. But now it says it can not mount /data/media

No idea what is wrong and i am afraid the phone is bricked.

Hope someone will have a good and clear way to go around this

Will this method, i mean the method with 3 resistors 300K work with my SGH-T989 ?

Or i am forced to buy the JTAG device ? I don`t even know how to use it by the way. This method with 3 resistors looks more easy to do.

Please help me, had everyone tried 3 resistors on Galaxy S2 T-Mobile ? :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jrc2:
The 'thing' with 3 resisters is called a USB JIG. You can buy one on eBay or from mobiletechvideos.com. The jig can sometimes be used to force a device into download mode. Usually, if you flashed the wrong ROM though, you'll need JTag. Mobile tech videos does that too. It's not something you'd do yourself.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockStar2005:
Hello everyone. Just have a question about the Z2.

So say someone bought an UNLOCKED Sony Xperia Z2 and used it on T-Mobile's network. T-Mobile does NOT sell the Z2 officially (previous models were like the Z1S, but not the Z2). The Z2 is from what I've read capable of LTE-A. T-Mobile just started deploying updates to its official customers (ppl who bought phones from them) which included the enabling of LTE-A. Some phones like mine (T-Mobile HTC One M8) have LTE-A, but it's not enabled until I get that update, which will be very soon. But what about the Z2? Will the unlocked version have LTE-A already enabled?? How does it work?

I would really appreciate a clear and detailed answer. I'm curious how that all works. I almost bought the Z2 but b/c of the big delay in it reaching the states officially (a week ago lol) I got the M8 instead, which I love now, esp after rooting it. lol I'm wondering what I would've done if I'd gotten the unlocked Z2 instead.

Thanks,

RockStar2005
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] se1000:
Note quite. First, NOBODY in the US has LTE-A, or currently has publicly announced plans to rollout LTE-A

The unlocked Z2 supports all current T-mobile, 2G, 3G, and LTE bands.

T-Mobile is currently in the middle of deploying 2 different LTE related technologies. The first is VoLTE, which places calls over the LTE network instead of the normal GSM (GSM, EDGE, HSPA) network. The second thing they are doing is rolling out 15x15 and 20x20 LTE, which is increased data speeds.

With that said, the Z2 should take full advantage of the 15x15 and 20x20 LTE rollouts. I'm not sure about VoLTE however, although it seems unlikely to support it. The rollout you were referencing (HTC update to enable a feature) is VoLTE. I spend a lot more time on data than on voice so for me it's much less of a concern.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ylo:
The Snapdragon processor in the Z2 CAN do VoLTE, but Qualcomm says that the operator has to certify the phone (and radio chipset) for VoLTE first. Then, Sony has to provide a firmware update to enable VoLTE for the network, T-Mobile in this case. Don't hold your breath, this could take some time.
