Does anyone know if xoom/honeycomb will support live wallpaper? I haven't seen any honeycomb tablets with a live wallpaper yet..
New ones probably bed to be made or scaled up.

I actually saw a hands on that had a live wallpaper running. It was a subtle one, not a whole lot going on, but the background was moving. The user actually selected wallpapers and you could see the live wallpaper option. It's going to come with it's own set of live wallpapers, just like all Android devices do.
I am really hoping to add a live wallpaper like I have on my Droid Incrediable - the Water wallpaper where the autumn leaves float along and if you tap it the water ripples.
I entertain easily....

The Nexus One is capable of using 16M we all know this!
But the stock gallery aka 3DGallery is not only limited to 65k but also limits the wallpapers set there to 65k, resulting with color banding and losing color richness.
I found a very helpfull app for free on the Market: Wallpaper Set and Save You browse for a wallpapers folder,then choose a wallpaper and set it!
Voila! you have now a rich 16m colors wallpaper of your choice, no more color banding
Wow, thank you! I didn't know there was a diffference between setting in gallery and WS&S.
I can confirm that there is a better color representation when setting in WS&S. It's not drastic, but it does remove the abrupt color change spots (color banding).
+1!
I don't know if anyone knows this, but on stock launcher, as well as Helix the home screens run a lot faster without a wallpaper (versus Live Wallpaper, or just static image).
To disable wallpapers just set the wall paper as a live wallpaper and open your favorite task manager app. End the process of just the live wallpaper, and not of the live wallpaper chooser. For most cases it should close out only the wallpaper and doesn't apply the default Nexus neural network live wallpaper. You should then have speeds comparable to Home++'s launcher, etc.
Of course once you reboot your phone or allow the wallpaper to reopen you'll lose the setting.

where can i get this wallpaper at?
btw have you guys seen the bokeh wallpaper? i personally love it and i think its better than the desire live wallpaper (i flashed the sense rom just to rip the wall from the rom but i am having trouble installing. its apk if you guys wanna try it)
Has anyone noticed that wallpapers are still banding with this app now? It used to work perfectly, but in the past few months (maybe since froyo? not sure) high gradient wallpapers are banding again, such as the HTC Desire rainbow, grey-to-white snow sceneries, windows7 betta fish wallpaper, etc. Anyone have any suggestions on how to make my wallpapers stop banding again?

You probably already found this somewhere else since it's been so long, but here it is. Sorry for the delay.
No problems at all, all the pics are working with 16m colors and no banding,it has nothing to do with FW anyway,the N1 is capable of 16m but it's the HTC heritage app ''gallery'' that is limited.
Use only Wallpapers Set and Save from the Market not the gallery or gallery 3D
has anyone gotten it working on their atrix?
it temporarily makes the wallpaper all black and then it flips back to my previous wall paper
heres a link if you want to try it on your atrix
http://www.droid-life.com/2010/12/16/download-nexus-s-microbes-live-wallpaper/
You link seems to be incorrect... this should be the one you were looking for: http://www.droid-life.com/2010/12/16/download-nexus-s-microbes-live-wallpaper/
About to download and try...
Edit: Doesn't seem to work. Actually defaults to the previous normal wallpaper used because I use a live wallpaper and it went to the normal wallpaper I used before my live wallpaper.
hmm maybe its because of our abnormal 960x540 resolution? but thats strange because many other live wallpapers work with this res.
I'm dying to have this LW. I sure wish some knowledgeable person could get it to work on Atrix.
On the other hand, does the marketplace carry something similar, hmmm.
Microcosm live wallpaper, but compared to the original, it's kind of meh. Better than nothing though.
I have always wanted to try one as there are some really cool ones in the Play Store... I've always *heard* though that they kill your battery. Does anyone actually even use live wallpapers lol?
No they don't, how often are you sitting there with your phone on displaying the home screen and nothing else? If you are in an app or the screen is off the wallpaper is inactive so live paper away and enjoy!

You sure it doesn't run in the backround bro?! I feel like it does haha... any live wallpapers to recommend?
Take it from someone who ported the library to phones which didn't support it a few years ago. Live wallpapers only run while being displayed. They can use up more battery, but only inasmuch as you're displaying them in your launcher.

I would like to suggest an app to Developers. I know this is the wrong thread but I don't know the right one. I was going to suggest a live weather wallpaper app in which you could choose your own background. I love live weather wallpaper but hate the corny pictures they use as backgrounds. I'd prefer a real photo of my own area in the background for their clouds, snow etc or just show the sky and no land background at all.

You guys dont need to buy a live wallpaper, just download this app and you can set any downloaded 4k video as a background wallpaper/live wallpaper
