where is the current wallpaper stored?

I'm trying to find out where my current wallpaper is stored. I've looked through the files on both my phone and SD card, including the Photos file but don't see any sign of it. Any idea where it is stored?

system/media folder.

Thanks for your reply. Looked in system/media folder and all I have are the following folders:
android_audio
audio
bootanimation
None of these have a wallpaper file/photo in them.
Again, thanks so much for the help.

ok. i will check that out.

it depends on what ROM you are using.
on a sense rom (even a de sensitized) it would be under system/customize/recource. im still searching for this in vanilla.

Thanks for your reply and further investigation.
I'm not rooted and am running the stock 2.1 w/update 1 and the ota update.
I did look in the system/customize/resource folder and although there are all the htc wallpapers....no sign of the photo I'm using for my current wallpaper.
I may have deleted the current wallpaper from Photos....but the wallpaper is still active on my inc. I'm hoping that I can track the wallpaper down and then save it again.
Thanks again.

[REQUEST] Background for lockscreen pattern.

Hi, I've been using VillainROM 12 for a couple of weeks now, and recently flashed cronos froyo and saw that the lockscreen pattern had the background of my home screen.
Is there any way to port this feature to VillainROM 12 as I have reverted back to it now.
Thanks, Andy

just had a quick look at the htclockscreen.apk from Villain12 but coudn't find any images which think could be for the background of the lock pattern screen. I thought it would be as simple as swapping it out with a transparent image.
however there is an xml called htc_keyguard_screen_lock.xml .
compare the one from cronos to the villain one with notepad++ (my lappy is in for repair, no notepad++ on this one sorry),... or compare the whole apk even.
..... Or beg someone to have a go,.... It cant be that much of a big job.
.... EDIT.... Or nandroid backup, then try just using the htclockscreen.apk from cronos on the villain ROM.

Thanks for the reply. I've had a look for htclockscreen.apk but can't find it,which directory is it is and is it in the system or the flashed zip?

Yeah, so take it from the zip file that you would flash through the recovery.
the apk will be in system/app.

Thanks. I started making some progress, swapping some .apk files between the two ROMs but the went to cronos and did not find 'htclockscreen.apk' it is a vanillaROM so there probably isn't an htc app in it. Do you know what the .apk would be on a vanillaROM?
Thanks, Andy

Oh sh#t,.... How did I miss you were talking about CronosFroyo?... I'm sorry.
Ok, so its not as easy as swapping out the apks. Hmmmm,.... I'll try to have a look when I get home for you.
It might be a no go though.
Get onto the Villain site and ask them in the chat thing.....

Mate, had a look at Cronos Froyo and yeah you're right, nothing in system/apps looks anything like a lockscreen. I think its time you asked the experts........ PULSER.... Help this guy out!!!!

[Q]How can I customize Android Builds?

Suppose I want change the default boot logo/ boot animation, on a android build how can I do it?

My suggestion is take a look at the main android forum. There they have outlined how to do it. Most tricks we can do aslong as its not hardware based

Porting Honeycomb music app to G2/ CM7 RC 2 with CWM3

Hi im trying to port the honeycomb music app posted around these forums to work on CM7 CWM3 but it needs to be updated to Edify Scripting to work on CWM3 but I can't sign .zips or .apk at this time. Here is the zip that should work on pre CWM3 builds.

There's an apk floating around here, had it but just didn't like it much.

Edit: I found it, and uploaded it. Tried it out again, didn't like it again No need for that recovery flash crap..

There is already an apk for it somewhere .search for it .also you won't need to flash it. Just uninstall the music opp with titanium back up and install the apk .it works fine but its not impressive at all.

It's not something I can just write here, and then you perform it.
You will need linux knowledge. Porting means a lot of errors. You will need to look at logcat and fix errors.
Check out this site:

Download the rom.
Download a stable rom already for the hd2.
Remove driver files from the stable rom and put into rom you're porting.
Also you will probably have to rewrite the build.prop file to use the drivers you copied.
Rezip the rom your porting and test.
This is the most basic steps. I'm considering writing a guide on compiling and porting but I'm not sure yet.
Hope this helps some.

Whre those drivers are located at?

Um, this is from memory but
Their located inside the system folder.
Their like lights.so etc.. I can't tell you alot without actually looking at it, my memory is failing me.

First of all thank for the help,
this what i already tried before i opened this thread..
i took an HD2 stable rom (2.3.3 sense 2.1) and deleted all apps in system/app/*
also i deleted customize folder, fonts, and framwork
and copy all the above from the desire rom (also 2.3.3 sense2.1)
so all i changed is apps, framework, fonts, and customize.
tried to boot and it stack on the kernel logo
any idea if i did right or wrong?
p.s sorry for the bad English, im working on it
