i've actually found a way to use your own custom skins without submitting them and/or sharing them with everbody. first, create your skin. next, look for a folder on the root of your sd card named ShakeThemAll. Inside is a folder named skins. inside that find a folder for a skin that you dont mind losing. replace the files inside with your custom skin files. when you reinsert the sd and go to the skin browser the name will still be the same as the original skin but when you apply it will use your custom skin

@DarthValentine

OOO thanks, will give that a try.

Does this remind anybody else of shimejis for desktops, or is it just me...? lol

I have a Pikachu floating around on my phone at the moment. :D

Thanks to dev for the app,

That's pretty interesting. Does it lag on Nexus One? My phone is always not performing well on active wallpapers.

Hi,

I just downloaded this live wallpaper on my brand new motorola Razr but i can't figure out how to properly set up a custom image as background ...

I tried using a 1080p hd wallpaper or photos from the camera and it seems to center it in the top left corner of the phone, therefore, i only have a corner of the image shown in the top left and the rest of the screen is black and glitchy ( droids leaves trail marks in glitch area ).

Do you have any fix for this ?

Multiple Skins

Is there a way to have more than one skin at a time? Like if I wanted to have calvin and hobbes and the two of them be able to move away from each other?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] typhoonikan:
Can you please add tablet support?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] WORPspeed:
Does anyone know if it works on the Galaxy Nexus?

When I follow the play store link, it says it is incompatible with my GNex, but compatible with my Nexus One.

So I can't download it for my Gnex from the Play store (very sad, as this is still my favorite Live wallpaper)

But since the official APK is on the website, is that compatible with the Gnex? Can I download it and install it without any worries?

(Running stock/vanilla 4.0.4 on my Gnex)

Nooo! App is deleted🙁🙁

Does anybody have the app archived?

LIVE WALLPAPER ShakeThemAll - Droids with physics

Hello, in all this time i wanted to download all skins for this beautiful wallpaper.

¿How can i download it?

Seems that the zip for all skin doesn't exist for download in internet anymore.

And the original web page doesn't work.

http://www.shake-them-all.net/

When i was i child i did the mistake of download only those ones that i liked. Now that i am an adult, i am so regret, and i want now have every folder, all complete pack. I would like find someone that upload the complete collection zip file.

I will share the original incomplete zip file that i saved in all these years.

NOTE:

unzip the file as:

"Extract to current folder"

Example in an Android most recent device:

emulated/0/ShakeThemAll/skins/....

Don't extract it as:

emulated/0/ShakeThemAll/ShakeThemAll/skins/...

If someone can download every droid skin from the zip file. Will be really cool if somebody share it.

When i was a child, i did with a gingerbread Android 2.3 version. If i am not wrong.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] RMJVC-X17:
I have it...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] oldman20:
Extracted zip like your way, but not detected by app
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] RMJVC-X17:
You did something wrong, go to check it out carefully!

You don't need to create these folders.

I MEAN; AS EXAMPLE:

1° folder named "emulated".

2° folder named "0".

I WILL REPEAT, DON'T DO IT, DON'T CREATE THESE FOLDERS.

These folders have been created by the system device.

Because the "/" after "0" in the path: "/emulated/0/" this is the root of the device.

And the "/" before the name "emulated" are the sub-root of your device, i mean; those folders that contains the system files for work your smartphone properly and correctly. THEY ARE HIDDEN.

the "/" before "emulated" in the path: "/emulated/0/"

←.../emulated/0/

There exist folders that are of your operative system in your device for work properly, for example:

res/emulated/0/

vendor/emulated/0/

system/emulated/0/

And, the "/" after "0" in the path: "/emulated/0/"

/emulated/0/...→

There exist the folders that use your device for save your data, Apps for example in "/emulated/0/Android/"

Or folders like example:

/emulated/0/Download/

/emulated/0/WhatsApp/

/emulated/0/DCIM/

YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] RMJVC-X17:
FORGIVE ME!

Taking note in something that i did not mentioned before:

Is that after you downloaded the .apk and the .zip files.

FIRST STEP, unzip the .zip file as mentioned in the before message.

in the path: "/emulated/0/ShakeThemAll/skins/...."

SECOND STEP when you unzip and paste the extracted files in the mentioned path...

install the app .apk.

Don't do it vice-versa (the other way round)

I mean, don't install the app .apk and after, unzip the .zip files because the app: ShakeThemAll will not gonna recognize the folder pasted in the correspondent path.

IMPORTANT: inside the "ShakeThemAll/" folder. There need to exist 2 important files that they are: ".nomedia" & "cache.xml"

Those files are inside the .zip file

POSTDATA: as you saw, i let 2 .apk files. With two versions.

The first one is: "v1.81a"

And the second one is the update (optional): "v1.92"
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] oldman20:
Yes, this is key word. Thank bro
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
Thanks, I will have a look at it.

Too bad I never used Fireworks.

Do you have the same with Photoshop? :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
Grabbing might be problematic as you will probably end up switching your home screen left and right constantly.

That's a feature I wanted to add initially, but let's not forget this is a wallpaper, not an app :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] iPhone iWing:
Very very clean job. Maybe away to set sensitivity and to chose your own background with different color droids. Speed is not an issue for me as I am running NexDesire. If you know how to formate your sd then you might have some good speed?? Hmmmmm. Anyway, I love this. Its really really great!!!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jkbhso3:
its fun. but imo i think it should be a bit more sensitive. and on my N1 a couple of the androids will get stuck on the edge of the screen and require vigorous shaking to get them loose.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] redmongoose:
Yeah this is great, very nice work so far. My kids will enjoy this !!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Stea1thmode:
hey man, this is cool, it defo made me chuckle:D

Thanks for keeping it real ( Android stylee );)

just a thought.......maybe an option to change the background?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] legolas.w:
Hi,

very coool indeed.

Thanks for sharing it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] :
Nice! Can't wait to see future updates! Good Job.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Worsty:
Yup. Very well done. Guess, i'd like preference settings for

1)Number of androids

2)Able to choose own background

3)Size(s) of the different androids (probably 3 sizes? max?)

No issue with speed of the android dolls moving.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Zeboo:
Hey, Some feedback^^

It would be cool if it would not crash...

I am using the modified Launcher 2 ( screen rotation+7 pages) and on rotation the live wallpaper crashes :S, Could you fix it somehow?

Regards Zeboo

P.S.: Keep going it will be AWESOME!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
Hi,

Can you provide a logcat ?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Zeboo:
Got the phone yesterday ^^ Downloading logcat please be patient ^^

Thanx

Zeboo
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
Needs to be smoother but works great so far!

Would like to see more settings too (ASAP! :D)

Keep up the great work
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] djmofunk:
For the love of god, please let us change the color of the background or replace it with a picture or something...

Otherwise that is a really cool wallpaper

Thanks!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Talderon:
Stock Nexus One (non-root)

Installed just fine

Switched to new wallpaper just fine

Spent a lot of time playing with this wallpaper than I should have... :rolleyes:

Runs pretty smooth... can lag just a little when a notification comes in, but overall, really nice and smooth and enjoyable. Will be great novelty to show the kids and to shove in my wifes face (who is an iPhone user). :cool:
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] psylink:
this reminds me of those liquid pens, like where the boat goes up/down the river in the water or the girls clothes fall off when you tip it one way.... funny stuff, i'll join the masses for please add other wallpaper support and option to customize # and size of androids
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] SBS_:
Just have to say it... This is one of the coolest live wallpapers so far. Up until now I've been using one of the stock normal wallpapers with some live wallpapers now and again, but this is my new favourite :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] nDrg:
Nice one! With the planned features added and possible some cleaning up of the android images this will be awesome :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gmonterrosa82:
Love it and the background color goes with the android logo love it when is this coming out on the market????
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
Thanks again for all your feedback, I'm glad you enjoy my wallpaper :)

As I told you, I couldn't work on it yesterday, but as soon as I'm back from work today, I'll have a look at the FCs logcat, and try to add some features you asked.

I'll probably post a new APK by the night (here in mauritius).
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pumacat311:
Very cool app. Im surprised there arent more live wallpapers like this. Like a snow globe one you shake or turn upside down. Or whatever. Anyway great work.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Zeboo:
Thanks ^^ I was wondering is it possible to make it like that, if the screen rotates, the live wallpaper rotates the opposite way the same ammount, so it would really work :D ^^
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
I don't get what you're trying to say, sorry :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Zeboo:
I am trying to say, with the rotating home screen aka rotating Launcher 2 the Live wallpaper rotates as well so i cannot make the androids fall...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Lodell:
I think he means it fc's with auto-rotate launchers. Mine does with Enom's 1.7.1
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Zeboo:
http://www.xda-developers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=641216 I am using this Launcher ;)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] deprecate:
I agree :)

And as far as supporting auto-rotating launchers...that isn't stock with any roms so personally it is a support model I wouldn't bother with.

Job well done; I have a new wallpaper...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
I've uploaded a new APK in my first post.

I think I resolved FC issues when using apps in landscape mode, the wallpaper will reinitialize itself but wont force close.

I also added reaction to touch event which add more fun to the wallpaper: watch them while you change screen or touch an icon on your home. Also try to touch one of the droids, it's quite fun :)

And at last, I added an FPS counter on top left of the screen, please report your framerates.

I'm usually getting about 25-35 fps.

I had a lot of work at my job today/evening, so I couldn't progress as much as I'd like with the wallpaper, but hopefully I'll start working on settings/skins/background this weekend.

Edit: the fps counter thing is for testing only, I'll remove it later.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gmonterrosa82:
It won't let me download on my nexus one. I click on the apk link and it starts downloading then it says! " download failed phone not supported"
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Zeboo:
Working for me. Around 24-33. One more thing could you solve the reinitialization thing later on?

I mean it is pretty annoying on a longer time that it reloads always when I turn the phone ^^

But Overall Great Job!!

You are cool, and have to teach me how to make apps, live wallpapers for Android ^^

With setcpu's profile at 384MHz, my fps caps out at 13. With the full 1.13GHz, I am seeing 32-36.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] deprecate:
put it on your computer and...

adb install ShakeThemAll.apk

The stock browser does not allow downloading apk files...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] m3nster:
What is it with the sweet androids that keep stuck on top of the screen? Can i save them somehow? Lol no realy, how do i get them off?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] andythefan:
Just a suggestion, but instead of impulse moving them we should have the ability to drag them around the screen! :D (That is without accidentally long pressing the wallpaper )
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ggrant3876:
Real nice work.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Lodell:
SU File Manager & Terminal, can be found in the market for $, will allow the stock browser to download apk's
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Lodell:
JUGGLE!!!

A fun thing to do is juggle them with the force touch. Up to 4 so far. Gonna try in landscape mode with both thumbs.

Sorry, just a fun observation.;)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
I think I witnessed what you were trying to describe :)

Before going to bed, I looked at the clock stock app which displays the wallpaper in landscape mode (first time I can see that).

And the g sensors seems to be inverted or something when in landscape mode.

Now that I know how to test and reproduce, I'll try to fix this, shouldn't be too hard :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
Any chance you could make a video ? :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
Touch the little stuck droid and it should move.

You can also try to shake your phone.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] grainysand:
FPS running from 26 to as high as 35. Desire ROM, alpha 14, no special kernel beyond what Paul included with his build (so no overclocking).
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Zeboo:
Thanks^^ You are the best^^
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] TheMadMan10:
thanks for this live wallpaper mucker. I'm running it on on the stock N1 firmware (i.e. I've not rooted/modded my N1) and it's all running fine.

I think what you have done is great. A few suggestions though (mirroring what others have said):

1. Ability to change background colour;

2. Ability to change number of 'dollls' on screen.

Cheers mucker.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] wind0zer:
I like!

After some initial use it crashed when I unlocked the screen & went back to the original live wallpaper. How do enable/collect logs for this? I'd love to help.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
I can only tell you how I'm doing this, but this requires USB drivers + Android SDK (with DDMS). Maybe there's a simpler way to view logcat that I'm not aware of...

I also couldn't find any simple, useful tutorial on how to achieve this.

Maybe another XDA member can help us ? :)

Edit:

Finally found a tutorial - http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] liam.lah:
I just used astro file manager(free) navigated to it and chose install.

That would defy the laws of physics.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] leetmeat:
After this latest update, the g-sensor seems much less responsive... You can't fling them around as fast as you could in the previous one. Anyone else notice this?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
Which sensor are you talking about ?

The accelerometer which is used for the shaking ? Or the orientation sensor which simulates gravity ?

Either way I didn't change anything with this 2 sensors, neither noticed any difference since last update.

I'll have a look at it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] m3nster:
I am still getting a lot of FC's. I installed the leatest version of the app, but still getting them a lot.

what kind of information you need?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] -J450N:
Or the ability to change the color and we're in business.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] deprecate:
If you run titanium backup, the stock nexus wallpaper will be present after backup runs. Odd behaviour but not a huge deal to reset.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
I would need to know which rom you're using, in which situations the FC occured, and ideally, the logcat :)

I'm using the stock rom, and didn't have any FC since last update.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Talderon:
Hey, was just checking in and seeing if there were any updates on this?

I REALLY love this thing and my kids/co-workers love it too (although none of them can use it since they are not on 2.x).

Anyway...

I am using a stock, unrooted Nexus One and only had ONE FC in the week or so I have been using it... but I was at dinner and not able to do a logcat, but all is good. :P

Things I love and hope you do NOT change:

1. The androids stick to the walls sometimes. You just have to give it a bit of a shake and they come loose... Personally, my favorite feature!

2. The swinging arms and legs, fantastic!

3. It is just enjoyable!!

Couple things that I would not mind seeing in an update:

1. Ability to change colors on the background

2. Ability to change the color of the droids

3. Ability to add more or less of them

Then there are suggestions from other users as well that I really like. Either way, this thing is a blast, I think you should put it up on the Market since it will get TONS of hits!!

Keep true to you, take suggestions as they are and do what you want/can... You will kill yourself if you try and please EVERYONE... :D

Hope to see more great things from you! :D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
First of all, thanks for your feedback Talderon, this is very heart warming :)

I've updated my first post with a new APK.

A few notes about this new version:

- Using the clock app, I've been able to fix the reinitialization of the wallpaper when in landscape mode. This should also work with custom launchers which enable landscape mode in home screens.

- To prepare the ability to change the background, I've enhanced the bitmaps of the dolls. They should look smoother and have a better alpha/transparency. I've tried with several background colors, and it looked great each time.

- I've added a 'settings' page to the wallpaper. For now it only allows you to choose the number of dolls you want to have. Beware, this is a numerical text input, so you don't have any limit! I'm not responsible to what may happen if you put too much stress on your phone :)

FYI, I tried with 20 dolls and it dropped down to 10-15 fps...

- Finally, to be able to choose the number of dolls, I had to give each doll a random initial position. The more you add dolls, the more they are likely to start near each other and get stuck together. Nice if you like grapes of droids, but I personally don't like that.

Now that I understand a bit more how preferences and settings work for wallpapers, my next update should include the ability to change the background color / bitmap. I'll also try to add physics settings.

Hope you'll enjoy this release, I'm going to bed now :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Zeboo:
Heey!

Some feedback agian!

It is nice to see what you did! The best Live wallpaper ever!

Positivums:

Re-initialization: it does not restart the wallpaper

Settings: AWESOME

The whole thing: MORE AWESOME!

Negatives (I think it is nothing for you to make these disappear):

Re-initialization: have to wait some time, and the screen flashes when changing between normal and landscape

Still have the direction bug when I turn the phone right instead of left, or 180 degrees (upside down)

And nothing else

Suggestion:

Make droids with instruments :D (I can help you in graphics if you want. just tell me what to do)

Feedback: Tried with 100 droids :D around 90% stuck together and 10% moves. 1fps

I am using it with 3 droids around 80 FPS pretty smooth.

(I turned off the autorotation until the bugs are fixed ;) )

Looking forward to the background and droid-layout change.

Is it possible to put in custom Backgrounds?(images)

I LOVE THIS Live Wallpaper!

And Last but Not least:

You are AWESOME You made this modification in one day! O.o

Congrats for this live wallpaper and Good night!

If I had some extra money I would totally donate to you, but unfortunately I do not :S

Best wishes

Zeboo
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] m3nster:
I cant provide a logcat right now, but iam using the alpha desire rom from modaco.

The FC mostly occur when i take the nexus from standby, when i choose wait all is back to normal.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] sinbonders:
definitely needs some more optimized code. kinda laggy.

would be awesome if you could drag them across to throw them around too.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Lodell:
I think that would conflict with the launchers long-press menu and slide to change screens
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] :
Wallpaper is a no go on A14 Desire rom.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] andythefan:
The option to reduce the number of dolls really improves performance! I think having one or two is enough to have fun with and it's usually 100+fps :D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] grainysand:
Works fine for me. Same ROM.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
Exactly, that's why I didn't put that feature although I would really like that too.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Zeboo:
@Yougli

What do you think about my Feedback? (a)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yougli:
Thanks for you feedback Zeboo :)

Concerning the orientation problem, I'm not focusing on this right now since I don't think this is a behavior supported by the SDK. From the SDK I can only determine if the screen is in landscape or portrait mode, but not the actual orientation in degrees (0, 90, 180 or 270). I guess I could deal with the orientation sensor to make it work, but this would need much work and could possibly lead to new bugs...

Right now I'm focusing on the ability to change the color or select an image for the background.

Concerning your suggestion to add instruments to the droids, my ultimate goal is to later give you the ability to make your own droids (or ninjas or dolls or anything you want) using a simple xml skin system. So I will leave my default droids like that :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Zeboo:
Cool.

Post from N1
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] :
Got it working. I tried messing with the settings before setting the wallpaper at first. That didn't load it.

Nows it's working, and I think my desk is off level since they're all migrating to the top. lol

Yougli: Can you have the androids "span" across the different homescreens like other live wallpapers instead of just being set to the res of the screen?
