Problem with installing live wallpaper in wildfire - Wildfire General

Hello peoples.
I'm new here, and sorry for my bad language =).
I am facing an issue with installing the live wallpaper in my htc wildfire. I have already go thru some similar threads actually, but I still decided to open a new thread to state my problem clearly. I'm sorry if I'm wrong to do so =).
I've actually found a nexus one live wallpaper ( with I'm desperating for ) in this forum. However, after I installed the .apk file, nothing happen. I have tried to launch it from astro file manager and it says "Activity not found".
At home screen, I choose to change wallpaper, and the live wallpaper doesnt appear there. Same goes to home, htc sense and my lovely ADW launcher.
I have seen people using that livewallpaper in youtube videos, so it should be usable for wildfire right? What is wrong?
Your replies and views are greatly appreciated =). Thank you

If you're using stock ROM, Live wallpappers are not supported. They are supported in custom ROMs.

and finally there's a reply from you guys T_T.
thank you so much buddy.
stock rom means, the original rom comes with purchase? ( i guess so ).
thanks for your info =)

Yes indeed, stock = original rom.

If load a custom rom to my phone & don't like it, would I able to load the stock rom??

I doubt froyo would add live wallpapers. By the way why are there no lwp on the wildfire? the hero has them with 2.1 and that has nearly the same cpu

[REQ]Mythamps Nexus contacts theme

A few weeks back, I could get this working on a Sense FroYo rom. (for the life of me, I can't remember what one it was)
Since flashing different roms, I haven't been able to make it work on any. Always results in the contacts app being removed.
Any ideas what the problem could be?

Really nice.
Di someone succed to flash that on a CM6 ROM? I'm too afraid to do that.
Works on latest DeFrost.
I love the theme, especially the dialer look.

Sound more complicated, here are some stuff I don't Understand very weel.
They are located from post #16 in the original thread you linked in first post:
"U have to rename the file cm6phone.APK to Phone.apk and then dump it in the update.zip, reflash and goodluck. Thanks all"
"I think the CM Rom owners need to get some help from their romdev gurus there"
"No that recovery update is for stock rom owners,
this mod is not working for CM6 users"
Yeah, I don't think its working for CM6. Check the first post in that thread, it links to a few pages for cm6 users.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Yeah, I tried the CM6 modified version, and they work pretty well.
Unfortunately, they are not up-to-date with the screenshots ( older version)
I cannot believe that someone here is not intersted by porting this theme to CM6 to our Desire...
Would be awesome
The complete theme looks sweet (not only the contacts.apk) ! Might try porting it soon, but hoping someone will do it sooner

didnt bother with the framework though since i didnt like it very much.

[Q] Question about ASOP ROM

Sorry for asking such a question, it's hard for me to follow XDA, there lots of pages. So basically, I rooted my phone, JIT my phone (benchmark ~710) but I still feel that it's somehow lagging and I wan to make the best of it. I pondering whether to install 2.1 Custom ROM ASOP or Froyo 2.2.1 AOSP ROM.
I more into gaming, music, video, facebook etc so I don't think Froyo will be suitable for me since there's lot of bugs such as cannot install certain apk, no camera (don't know still got what). What about 2.1 ASOP? With it be better compared to now? And there's three version (full, light, ultralight). Which one should I install?
And is it replacing the original ROM or just another ROM (meaning I can switch back to the original ROM anytime).
FYI : I wish to keep chinesetextinput, JapaneseIME, PhoneBook, mediascape. I already using Launcher Pro Plus so I don't need the Launcher Pro launcher
Thanks in advance!
Don't install either of those roms time as they are not finished and can't really be used for everyday use .

sit tight mate, they (Jerpelea) is about to release v5 of his AOSP 2.1 ROM - and he says that the dialler is working.
also, thank you for not posting in the DEV thread!!! you have no idea how frustrating it is looking for bug reports in that thread now - i feel so sorry for J and Z
edit: just re-read your first post. Are you sure u need to keep mediascape? there are better alternatives that are provided in vanilla (AOSP) android, that do not get so intrusive in the system. The AOSP rom is a complete flash, so you have to choose to use it or something else.
The full, light and ultralight are NOT AOSP ROMS either so you know, they are customised SE roms that can be used with Zdzihu's recovery menu. These CAN be used with your existing ROM in a way, but you will need to juggle backups and image files. can be done, but takes about 10 minutes to change. Safe and works, but a little clunky
First of all, backup everything u want! Titanium backup ot even the .apk on ur SD or PC
I am running both...
2.1 custom AND 2.2 custom, i cant make any calls on 2.1 -> reboot to 2.2
Cant take pics from camera -> reboot to 2.1
...
It works fine for me
My quadrant results:
2.1 ~720
2.2 ~2200
Thx for posting a new thread and not spamming the dev thread...
Edit: yes, u can go back to original SE rom, just use the link for the .504 version in the first post of 2.1 custom rom thread
Sent from my Nexus One (x10 custom ROM) using XDA App
@mrtim123 : Thanks but can you futher explain what you mean recovery menu? So you meaning the ASOP will replace the current ROM while the customised SE roms can be use with the current ROM anytime?
From the custom ROM ASOP thread,
They stated:
Not working
-video playback is not using hardware decoder for some formats
-camera settings crashes
So the dailer is already working?
And will remove mediascape result in problems in the future? Heard from some thread that it will result in problems.
@PoTi_96 : It's kind of hazzle to change here change there. I prefer one ROM rather than 2.
I know but the dialer wasnt fixed, now im just running 2.1

I installed asop 2.1 ver b006 last night and now i have about 17 hours of usage. I belive that it is almost a rom for a dayly use. Bugs i experienced so far are camera settinhs giving FC, some minor problems with downloads on build in browser,all fixed with opera. It comes half rooted but can easy root with z4root app, i could not find the gallery but after instaling the app from this forum ( gallery 3d) i am more sattisfied then with mediascape timescape or any other SE program. I find it verry snappy and belive you should try it after a backup with titanium. Another beautifull app is the recovery.menu witch is the best. All the best
Sent from my AOSP on Xperia (US) using XDA App
Pardon, I have no clue when coming to such things. Correct me if I'm wrong.
The recovery.menu is it a kind of application that help you flash your phone? So I have to keep pressing back when the Sony logo came out to go into recovery mode and install the ASOP ROM? And the Global ROM is to revert back? So I had to install both ROM?
However since stated that it's not possible to call people, how is it possible that the ASOP can be used for daily. I don't mind about the camera since I don't really use it.
P.S I already download the ASOP ROM for the main thread.

So I have to keep pressing back when the Sony logo came out to go into recovery mode ABOUT 5 TIMES
and install the ASOP ROM? YES, AS UPDATE.ZIP
And the Global ROM is to revert back? BACKUP FIRST
So I had to install both ROM? YES, NOW YOU CAN SWITCH BETWEEN
However since stated that it's not possible to call people, how is it possible that the ASOP can be used for daily. WORKS ON LATEST RELEASE

Thank you for your reply. One more question before I start on it. So when you say switch between, when I switch will it remain the same or it will be a completely fresh ROM?
For example I now using ASOP ROM and wan switch to the original ROM and if i decide to go back ASOP, will all settings be gone?

When you restore, you will get back state you were in at backup. Same settings, same apps.
So meaning, I can keep the setting of the current Sony ROM. So if i chage to ASOP and decide to change back I can have the same settings?
And if i decided not to use ASOP anymore, I can just delete both the original and ASOP ROM at my SD card?

You must back up first though.

[Q] Confused

HI ALL!!!! I'M NEW
I'm just confused about what to do. i have a wildfire and i want to cancel some application and totally disable htc sense. To do this , need i to use unrevoked to have root on my phone ??
i'm no an expert but i think about yes. anyway i'm in trouble , i read on this forum that unrevoked 3.22 has a problem . a bug for the led .
now i'm just afraid to root due to this problem.
what i got to do ???!!!
(sorry for english ,i'm italian XD )
Well, you want to remove some apps and to get rid of sense, right
You can install a custom ROM like Cyanogen or OpenFire, that are based on AOSP Android sources, meaning that they are pure Android, no HTC apps or Sense.
Be careful, they still have bugs, check each topic to see what are those bugs.
Also, you can donate to MoDaCo forum and get access to the kitchen and add/remove the apps you don`t want and flash that ROM. - I`ve tried it, and it`s ok, BUT YOU CAN`T REMOVE SENSE.
Or you can just go to settings, applications, manage application, search for HTC Sense and tap on clear defaults. Then press the home button and you can choose the default android launcher.
In order to install custom roms you need to root with Unrevok3d. It`s not hard, you just need to read this twice: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824396
The clockwork mod recovery has the bug with the led light only when you recharge the phone while it`s off (completely off, not just the screen.) It shouldn`t bother many people. Hell, I`m don`t eve care about it.
Be careful , by doing this you void your warranty, but if you flash a RUU file you get back the stock rom and loose root and recovery and can use the warranty. - I`m not that sure about this, it`s just what I`ve heard.
so if i root without installin clockwork recovery i will not have the led problem ???
Rooting with unrevoked installs clockwork. You need clockwork to flash custom roms. And lol the bug is useless, I charge my phone when its on anyway.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
thx XD i've undestood XD
done. rooted,installed custom rom cyanogen 6.1 , play one day and in the end unroot and returned to the beginning XD
i'll wait for a custom rom with ginbread , for froyo i'll wait the offcial ota XD
thx now i feel a bit better about customing my wild fire XD
plecial thax to Turkeys' ULTIMATE Guide to Rooting v42.1.2 easy end fast
lol in italy FROYO IS JUST OUT NOW XD just in time

or you can install a 3rd party home app, like LauncherPro ... etc
http://www.androidtapp.com/tag/custom-android-home-screen/ ....
which will "disable" Sense .. when you set by default the other home screen
..and second ... you can install a "task killer" which will kill or "cancel" that apps what you wants
so in this way you don't need to do any rooting, or using a custom rom
this is a possible opportunity, i think
sry, my english bad
p.s. but a custom rom, like cyangenmod is a better choice
this is what i'm doing now. 2.2 official with launcher pro XD i don't think htc will relase gringerbread, so , now i've got the skills to can take it with a possible future rom XD
you can just go into menu > settings > applications > htc sense then "clear defaults" unless youre using FroYo

Installed Livewallpaper for Legend What about lockscreen?

Hey guys so Ive installed the Live wallpaper hack from XDA i think it was the Rodriquezz rom patch for live wallpapers on the legend..I got it working and everything i was just wondering is there anyway to use it on the lockscreen too? Because when I go to settings to change lockscreen wallpaper i dont see a live wallpaper option as i do with normal wallpaper for the homescreen...
thanks
That's if you have Froyo. Because then, there will be no option to change the lockscreen's wallpaper, and it will use the one you have on your homescreen instead.
It makes sense (hurr not really but sorta pun) to flash a 2.2 ROM instead, because I assume this hack requires you to already have your device rooted.

Well, Im rooted lol I used the tut from paul at modaco, I guess im on froyo? Because i can change the lockscreen wallpaper, i just dont have the option for live wallpaper.
Rooting doesn't automatically give you Froyo. Unless I misread everything you said.
Sorry if I did.
hmm..k lol sorry for my nubness -_- this is the tutorial i used...http://android.modaco.com/content/h...-r4-htc-legend-rooting-guide-now-with-1-31-x/
so what rom am i on right now then? and did you happen to know how to nand unlock and get r/w access?
You're still on the ROM you installed during rooting. It's nothing special, thank goodness it's not Froyo either.
Now you can flash a custom ROM through ROM Manager and enjoy Froyo from there!
EDIT: Oh yeah, installing custom ROMs wipe everything. And there are specific instructions for each ROM too. Look for ROMs and special goodies that you can use with ROM Manager in the Dev section of the Legend's forums.
yea i actually tried Cyanogenmod it was nice but i diddnt like it much, so i rolled back..what else is out there? Im running the stock rom that came with my phone originally now...i have tons of apps and my contacts in it so its gonna be pretty ***tty putting it all back on a new rom

download "App Backup & Reinstall" from the market, reinstalls every app you have with a small backup file. Cache and settings are lost though...
And for your contacts, you van backup them to a Vcard (.vcf file) in Contacts > Menu > Import/Export
Titanium Backup is an option aswell since your device has root acces already.

[FIX] Android Revolution HD™ 7.0.x Hebrew Fix

Hello Everyone,
I saw people asking about Hebrew fix for the AWESOME Android Revolution HD Rom,
so I compiled a fix from a script This Guy made.
For the official thread of the ROM here's a link.
And for the the fix to flash AFTER you flash the room AND boot it.
Downloads:
Current Version:
ARHD 7.3: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v7.3_Fonts.zip.
ARHD 9.0: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v9.0_Fonts.zip.​
Older Versions:
ARHD 7.0.x: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v7.0.x_Fonts.zip.
ARHD 6.3.x: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v6.3.x_Fonts.zip.​Enjoy.
*Note:
For some reason the Hebrew locale option is not available in Settings>Language and Keyboard>Select Language, there is a way to change this with this app https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale.
Just Select custom locale and write iw and then IL.
And if you like to thank the guy that made the script Donate him.
Thanks
I'll try it our thanks man!!

Hey,
I flashed your fix for 6.2 ARHD, and the fonts look nice, I think the ones on the other fix were actually nicer, but doesn't really matter.
Anyway, the pull to the right side works on the SMS and on Gmail, but not on all the widgets like people widget, Calender widget, but does work on others like Gtasks and Go SMS widgets.
Thanks for your hard work

If you have the fonts that you need you can just download the zip file and replace the fonts in the /system/fonts folder.
And don't forget to delete the other folders so it will not do the RTL fix (/system/framework and /system/lib).
And in anycase do a nanodroid backup first, who knows what could happen.
Hope this will help you

Hey Omriabu1
Did you change anything dramatic in the V.6.3.1 ?
I flashed the one for 6.2..0, over mike's 6.3.1 version and so far it works pretty well.
Question is do you think it would cause issues, an if so, would simply flashing your recent work just resolve it?
BTW thanks a lot for releasing updates and staying on top of things, your doing a great service

Actualy I don't think there is not much difference between the two versions because it's Basicly the same base, but I just wanted to be on the safe side and recompile the fix using the files from the new ROM.
Anyway if it's working for you now I don't think there will be any problem with it later on but you can flash on top of it the new version if you like.
And don't worry about the updates I'm a user myself so I just upload what I'm using

Installed on Virtuous Affinity 2.0.5 and confirm that the patch works and solves some issues, for instance in Waze roads numbers are finally shown in correct manner, i.e. like 123 instead of 321 as it was before. Thank you very much!
The only remaining problem after the patch was installed is Music application that doesn't show albums/songs/singers names in Hebrew fonts, but uses default locale fonts (Russian in my case). If somebody can help to solve this last problem it will be greatly appreciated.

Well the fix should work on every rom from the same android build on theory.
But I used the files from the ARHD Rom so I just wanted to be safe, because I don't know if the original file was change in other roms.
