This was a modified app from this threads inception, the op nor I had anything to do with the certificate. I don't believe the owner of the original app wanted to give any more freedoms with his app than what you see here already, sorry.

then how can we upload wallpapers made by it to the android market..???help pls..
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Mrdaviso:
You can get them uploaded like others have but you also need the source to troubleshoot the fc issues I believe and this was never offered to us by the owner of the app. Sorry should have been a little clearer.

Hi

I have done everything in the OP. the apk is builded , installed on phone , but all i get is a black screen. Then in a few seconds i get back the default wallpaper of note. Any ideas?

EDIT : Even with your 20 attached images that you have inside of the program i get black screen.

Almost perfected

OK.... so this script did need a lot of work, but I'm at the point where I can get a livewallpaper up and running, can upload to store etc.. etc..

I'm confused on android 4.1 +

Here is the story....

So I have an older phone 2.1 ... which runs the livewallpaper up to 300 images no issues whatsoever, (only issue is file size with 300 .png at 320x480) is about 25-30mbs

Problem is with 4.1 + ... I heard there was some sort of change in the code with drawing or something.

I have tried the following with no success...

tried adding .... targetSdkVersion="17"

tried changing ... anyDensity="false" to "true" (from some other guide)

tried changing ... resizable from "false" to "true" (was just trying everything, lol)

changed the default settings to start at a higher "fps" and "screen size" <--- this works successfully on 2.1 , no difference on 4.1

Whoever says you can't modify files is wrong, I have modified just about everything and it runs on Android 2.1 up to the 4.1 with not a single issue.

Someone knows how to fix the coding for it to load on 4.1+ let us know. Please keep this thread alive.

Update... issue is with apk file size. Must be around 6-7 mbs at most. I can only run png's with this script, if someone can help me figure out how I can place jpgs in the "placeimages" folder and have the script except it, will be done deal. Have it running on 3 devices... a 2.1 htc evo 4g , 4.1.2 galexy s3, and a galexy s2 - 7 inch tablet

How can I get the script to write the apk with jpgs instead of png?

mediafire link says "File Removed for Violation."

Edit: Ok I found this file by googling a bit but I can't generate apk even from the predefined images. I ran the RUN file and filled every field required but still there isn't any apk file in the whole directory (tried searching *.apk)

This is what I copied from the command line window:

I was heartened when I saw this post, but less so when I finally went to download and begin my live wallpapering quest... the apk, it would seem, has been taken down. That said, are there any alternatives to utilize instead?

Hello

Got a problem with the apk creation. It just doesn't do it :)

I think the problem is the path. Can you tell what should be there and is it a system or user var?

Edit:

Problem with java solved.

Also saw that in newest version it can't find the path from my images...

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] mmace:
when I extract the zip I only have 20 images in the "placeimages" folder

I replace it with 94 of my own and my own icon

when I run Run.bat I follow the instructions (put in "5e" for the 94 images), it seems to run through OK but I find no output apk file

there is a folder called what I named the LWP in out/smali/com/custom/lwp/LWP-NAME-HERE

no apk in sight

I installed Java before doing any of this, never done anything with Java so in your first post when you say it must be in your path, what does that mean?

any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

EDIT:

It needs Java SDK, not Java installed on your machine
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JHPadu:
I have 56 pictures (if I don't include the icon.png, which I shouldn't?)

So I should set the hex value to 38, right? I tried 37 and even 32 (as if it would be 50 pictures tho I have more in the folder) with the same number of pictures but I still get that white frame at the end.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] apollostees:
Thanks for that I was going crazy not understanding why it didn't work. Downloaded the Java SE Development and now I'm in business.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Hmmm ill look into it. im away till mondays so can't do much.

As for needing sdk, as long as java is inur path this script will run.

yeah same here i get the white frame at the end

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] mmace:
Worked fine for me over the weekend

Just tried again now (with old and new download files), everything seems to run through fine but no file is created (14 images - hex = e)

I even tried it in the folder where I have everything saved from a successful run

If I make some extra images and set it to 20 images (hex = 14) then it works fine!

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] olivvv59:
I think .. I put 64 in the hexa number (I have more images (223) but I've limited to 100)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Lol k cool.

Nice. Lol i can show u if u want to go more than 100 images, but it takes a lot of time lol, u gotta manually create addresses/id's in 3 files (no copy-paste) lol. I think 100 images is sufficient for most animations. ;)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] olivvv59:
The best solution would be to create the apk with all the images file in the "placeimages folder". But I don't know, if you can easily do that with a ".bat"

But it is a great apps :-)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Im guessing u mean it should read how many images u have in ur placeimages folder and convert it to hex and feed it into the script ? Well still to go past 100 no bat file can do wht u gotta do manually (add addresses/ids).
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] olivvv59:
yep ... that's I mean ;)

EDIT : If I've time .. I try to do a basical user interface to fix this problem ;)

Thanks again and great work as always! :cool:
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
K heres wht im thinking. I can always add functionalities like install from the script, but first i wanna make sure the script's core function is working. K in a few moments i'll post a small guide as to how to add more than 100 images if u want to do so, and then whoever has free time / patience could perhaps do it and upload the files to this thread and i could incorporate it with credit ofcourse ;)

Other than that, i am thinkin of addin a *detect how many images in placeimages folder and auto choose hex value* but first i wanna get the core functionality down.

do you know of an easy way to rename all the files instead of just going through them one by one?

I Can't find the apk file after i compile the pictures!! Can someone help ?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] olivvv59:
In the run.bat folder ( name = customlwp-signed.apk ) ?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] potter1984:
Yea i never got that either??? pmsl....
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
The following are reasons i dont think i "ripped" the dev off.

1 - Im not charging for the app nor asking donations

2 - Its a free app

3 - I uploaded on the forum not on the market.

4 - I disclosed the exact things i did to the apk and never once claimed that the app as mine.

5 - I credited the dev for the app

* If however the dev feels i did something wrong let me know n i'll remove it. The way i see it, ur point makes it sound like any themed app is ripping the dev off.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] potter1984:
I always though it was good manners to at least ask first that's all.

I'm still waiting for him to get back to me, he's still asleep atm...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Yea so after u compile, u'll find a customlwp-signed.apk in the same folder as Run.bat

Just install that like a regular lwp.

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone knew the image change rate. By this, I mean how quickly are the pictures being cycled through in pics/sec. Also, can this be modified? Thanks!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
The dev as part of his preferences for the app has an option to modify frames per second. When choosing the wallpaper, go settings and u'll see it.

I get this error "The filename, directory nane, or volume label syntax is incorrect."

Then can go through the steps, but it won't create an apk. I need some help. I'm obviously missing something here.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Hmmm. Haven't had that issue. Wait u get this the moment u run the script ? so before the first input ? i.e before it asks u "Enter number of images"
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ranhdrcewp:
That's right. As soon as I double click the script it flashes that, then goes to the main menu. I managed to take a screenshot of it so I could read it. I unzipped the archive on my desktop. Is that what I'm doing wrong? Or perhaps it's an incorrect Path error with Java. I don't know, but this is really bugging me. What do you think?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Well my script should tell u if java is in ur path or not. When u first run the script all its doing is deleting the out folder and restoring it from the backup inside the other\backup folder.

K can u try this :

Start -> run -> cmd -> java -jar

Do u see command not found ?

Can u upload the snapshot u took ? i wanna see if its a repetitive error.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ranhdrcewp:
When I do start, run, etc, I don't get that error. I'm fine there. The problem has to something simple and my guess is it's my Java path I have entered. Is there anyway I could run it on Ubuntu? Maybe that would correct whatever is mistaken? I don't think I can take screenshots because everything flies by so quickly.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Ok do this. Open Run.bat with notepad or ur text editor. Remove every "cls" u see. Now run the script. You should be able to see wht error occurs and it won't fly by quickly. Also if u know how to setup team-viewer, i could do a remote assist like ive done for other ppl.

I then installed Java and tried again and the run.bat then said it was building the apk file but I still can't find it.... I've read every post and it's not in the same folder as run.bat i just have run.bat and the "other" "out" and "placeimages" folders but no apk??

Now at any of those do u see a large paragraph of text ? If it was successfull

ur should look something like
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Right, theres something interesting about this lwp app. By default it runs the images at the lowest possible resolution (ie the image's resolution). So once u make it bigger, it fc cuz its out of ur screen resolution. To overcome this, wht u could do is make the original images (320x480), then on ur n1 choose medium/large. See if that works.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] skilty:
It doesn't say "signing APK" but it goes from your screenshot to the "do you want to install on the device" message, if I select no.... there's no APK, if I put my phone into debugging mode/usb connection and select yes, an error message pops up but it's too quick to read.

I've installed java and the Adroid SDK and I'm trying to read up on using all this as we speak.

Would love to know where I'm going wrong but I suspect its my distinct lack of experience that's not helping :o

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
so no matter wht number u enter, it loops at same image or does the image number u enter have an effect?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ranhdrcewp:
Here are two examples of what happens.

With 8 images, it runs the eight, but then a bunch of white, then the 8, then a bunch of white, etc.

With more than 50 images, it runs only about 20-ish, but then the white, etc, etc.

I'm probably just going to install W7 and see if I get any better results, but as far as Vista goes, if you want to Team View again so you can fix the code you could use me like that.
