[Nexus One Themes and Apps] xpbr2000:
well i tinkered with it some more and some how its working now. i think its because the android SDK folder was not in the same directory as the custom live wallpaper folder when the script is run.

but also now i have a problem. on both my xp 32 and win7 64 machines the apk file is created but after i install and attempt to apply the live wallpaper, before pressing "set wallpaper" it will say loading wallpaper and force close after a few sec. even after i set wallpaper it will force close and the previous wallpaper will appear.

Note: when the script is "building resource" it takes a long time to complete. no matter is there is a 100, 50, or 20 images. Normal? also, i have a custom icon 72x72 that i created and all images are 480x800, please help

thanks for you help.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] xpbr2000:
any android script savy people still following this thread? not to mention the broken download link?

i've gotten the live wallpaper to run at 20 images on my droidx. i have a total 72 frames im trying to use. the 72 frame apk works on a my touch 4g, but not on my DX. i've looked at the logcat and this is the errors. how do i fix this:

e/dalvikvm-heap(26320): 1536000-byte external allocation too large for this process.

e/dalvikvm-heap(26320): 1536000-byte external allocation too large for this process.

e/graphicsjni(26320): VM won't let us allocate 1536000 bytes

i'm running the 2.4 version (download link broken) its said the 2.4 version will handle 100 images. my images are the same res and approximate size as the pre-installed images. if the 2.6 handles 300 images where is the limit as to the size of the images.

Im a noob with android script but im learning as i go. need some assistance. Please.

Found 2.6

http://www.4shared.com/get/fYwZy7rU/Custom_LiveWallpapers26.html

I used this and it worked for me after some fussing around. It didn't work on windows 7 64 bit, had to use a windows XP machine. Also it would never output an apk file for me. I had to manually package and sign the APK from the contents of out/build/apk (zip it up, rename to apk, then use other/signtool.jar to sign the apk or else it won't install)

I've tried countless times to use this GUI, But still cant seem to produce a final .apk output. Framework 4.0 is installed correctly, Java is installed correctly.... The GUI seems to run fine but now final output apk anywhere.

Custom Creater 2.6 works fine, but i want to use the GUI version so i can use the apk on Android Versions 2.3.3 and 2.3.4. Also the GUI version uses jpg's.

(it was mentioned that Custom Creater 2.6 can use jpg's by editing run.bat to:

if NOT EXIST "%~dp0out\res\drawable-hdpi-v4\n%placeholder%%counter%.jpg" (copy "%~dp0other\ph.png" "%~dp0out\res\drawable-hdpi-v4\n%placeholder%%counter%.jpg")

which is incorrect.

Any suggestions on why the GUI isn't creating a final apk would be great.

Thanks Guys.

First of all thanks for this nice GUI tool

i'm volunteering for help here!

I'm a JAVA .NET developer but I dont have time to buid this program from scratch.

if you need help developing and solving bugs so we could come out with real working product PM me or send the source and I'll help

I'll do anything to give back to this amazing comunity here at XDA...

by the way, I've got .net 4 and java installed and still no APK created...

I think you could downgrade the .net to ver.2 so more people can use it w/o installing anything else. and I'm thinking of integrating a sign formarket tool in it as well.

lol why is everyone still using this crappy script to make lwp's? it's not hard to make frame by frame animation lwp's in eclipse.

My source is optimized and runs a full 60 fps and can use unlimited images, on all android versions without editing the build.prop file so these run fine on standard 32 mb file heap size.

Download my "roller coaster adventure" lwp it uses about 575 images to make a lwp. The most images I used ever was 957 and only uses 12 mb of ram on android.

Live Wallpaper Creator 2.6

I looked everywhere online and cannot find the Live Wallpaper Creator 2.6, MediaFire.com no longer hosts the file and says that it has been removed due to violation of their terms of service. Where can we find this software? I tried using Live Wallpaper Creator 2.4 but the APK file it creates doesn't work on my Motorola Razr. I keep getting "force close" error message. The application installs but you can't open it. Neither the "Haters will Hate" nor the one I made using the 2.4 work.

Any ideas why it doesn't work and where can we find Live Wallpaper Creator 2.6?

To convert punch of images and automaticly rename it You can use free tool: Light Image Resizer, to only multi rename files Total Commander is imho best choice (File-Multi rename tool Ctrl+M).

Java's messing with my nervs

Hello

I'm new here and I didn't found what I'm looking for on the board so I post here.

I want to make my own live wallpaper, using all the graphic tool I have (3DS,AE,PS ...) so now I have 300 pis in PNG, perfect to go with "custom livewallpaper" a cool little program when I read all the comments.

But here comes the drama. When I launch Run.bat, the Dos window pop up (as normal) but it said "Java was not found, you will not be able to sign apks or use apktool"

But Java is installed and up to date, maybe I have to make some settings I don't know.

I'm on Win 7 pro 64bits (official)

So if someone has any ideas, I beg for any advice cause I worked 2 days on my PNG sequence and it's gonna be awesome ... only if I figures how it works.

Thanks

PEACE

gui version

did you try it using this?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1297721
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] SsJVasto:
You need to make the programe "java.exe" executable from whereever you are on the machine. There are 2 options at your disposal:

1- you can EDIT the Run.bat, and change all the java.exe to C:\Programs\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe

2- you add the /bin/ folder to your $PATH variable (this will make all Java applications (jar.exe, servertool.exe, awt.dll, ...) executable at all times):

Click "START";

Right-click on "Computer" and select "Properties";

Go to the "Advanced" tab;

At the bottom of the window, click the "Environment Variables" button;

In the top DataGrid, find the variable named "PATH" (if it's not there, create it);

You'll want to add your JAVA path to the variable. If it's a newly created variable you simply need to put the path to /bin/ in here. If it's an existing variable then you want to add this path to the end of the current list. All list items are separated by ; (semicolon), so it could make things not work if you forget it.

Click "OK" (Closes Variable dialog);

Click "OK" (Closes Computer Properties dialog);

Now, for this to take effect, you need to reboot the windows explorer... Easiest way to do this is to LOG OFF (A simple "Change User" will not work) and log back in. System variables are loaded when the Userspace is created.

PS: This technique can be used for anything. I use the PATH variable to manage my Android Development Toolkit (ADB, fastboot, etc) and my PSPSDK (psp-gcc, psp-pbp, etc), so I never need to fuss with pathes, and use my command-line DOS prompt in windows as if I was in linux (I can type "make" in windows to build without having to deal with the path).
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] spouny_boy:
Tanks for the tip but I figure how to make it work but I still have some probleme.

The APK is created but dosen't work and make the program crash in the phone. Otherwize I use an other program called Live Wallpaper Creator from IreXsoft

it's based on the same program but with a windows interface.

Anyway, it's not working at all, the APK are created but it's not working on my phone. I got a White rectangle stuck on 2/3 of the screen and no pictures.

I'm using frame at 1280x800 pixels, with the good name or extension. I tryied with 100 frames, with 300 frames, nothing work.

So I found another program, an app actually : LWP creator that alows you to create animated wallpaper from numbered frames.

Here's what I did : http://9gag.com/gag/3911358

Thank for helping me because it's not as fluid as I want.

By the way, if a normal member could post that link on this thread :

Hello everyone.

I've tried using this script and it seems to worked fine when I tested it with only 4-5 images. Now I wanted to create one with more images (100+). It installs just fine but when I want to set the Live Wallpaper, after loading, the message: "unfortunately, 'live wallpaper' has stopped" pops up. I tested it but it seems I can't have more than 6 images without me getting this message. I have a Galaxy Note.

It seems like you can't run more than 6 :P , try downloading again , or try running an emulator (download VMWare Emulator Box and Download any Android ISO). Also make sure the file names are correct and that you are using the correct hex.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] :
Hi guys. First, the Live Wallpaper Custom Creator is great. I was having a little bit of fun with some gifs that I had. But the thing that bugged me was having to convert dec->hex, which isn't a big deal. All you have o do is open calc, but some people are dumb and also I just don't think people should have to do that conversion. So I made a little exe that creates a temp file for the batch to read. I just changed the batch up a little bit, and it worked. So the exe is attached to this post. You just have to change "set /P INPUT=Enter: %=%" to:

d2x

set /P INPUT= < temp

del temp

and remove "0x" from "const/16 v1, %INPUT%"

I also made a gif extractor that saves each frame as n[frameNumber].png in a folder [gifName]\placeimages. I was having alot of fun with that. The only problem is that the wallpaper doesn't work with some gifs, most likely because of resolution. Maybe this would encourage some people to make gifs to fit screen sizes.

But I'll post that later because I pretty much copied some dude's example and changed it up a little bit and I still haven't read his terms of use. I just read "free to use/distribute" and stopped there. idk if he wants credit somewhere. And I also have to edit some of the text. Nobody wants to hear my bad, vulgar, dark sense of humor.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] markdmac:
I am having a similar issue. I have an older version of this script and it compiles a LWP, the preview looks fine but when I try to set the wallpaper it reverts back to a static wallpaper.

So first question is where do I get the latest version since the OP link is bad. Second, how do I resolve this issue? I only have 7 images. Lastly, how do you maximize the screen resolution? I can see int he arrays section where the existing choices are. If I try to edit those with the resolution of my phone (720x1280) it seems to ignore my change.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] markdmac:
Some Progress

OK, I was able to create a good LWP by dropping my images from 7 down to 6. Still cannot adjust the size to match the GNex screen which is 720x1280. I can live with the 6 frames issue though it would be nice if it could support more on a Jelly Bean rom.

Can anyone tell me how to modify the code to adjust the array of resolution sizes? When I edit the XML file in Notepad++ the changes are ignored when I compile. Does anyone out there know how to resolve the number of frames issue?

I've seen a lot of people reposting this tool with some minor tweaks to it. Does anyone know who the original author is to ask questions to?
