I haven't rooted yet, but looking at those instructions and the files, you're limited to the backgrounds included? I want to use my own.

[Q] How to modify a live wallpaper ?

Hi !
I would like to extract the image of a live wallpaper, but I can't seem to find it.
Used apk tool to decompile the apk, and when I look for the image there's only a 256x256 thumbnail of the wallpaper in the res/drawable folder... How come ?
Another solution would be to modify the apk to make the wallpaper still instead of animated, but I don't know where to start. Is there a file I could modify to do that ?
Thanks a million for your help !
Cheers

It sounds like the wallpaper is generated entirely with an algorithm. Live wallpapers are actually special apps that run behind the icons.
A simple solution is to just take a screenshot of the wallpaper. You can select it in the Live Wallpaper picker and take a screenshot of it. Then, you can crop out the bottom area that has the Settings and Set Wallpaper buttons.
What wallpaper are you trying to take a still image of?

That's what I thought... Damn.
I tried to use a screenshot but it's not the same since it's smaller and can't cover the sliding effect. Better than nothing though.
I'm trying to get a still image of the "Holo Grid" wallpaper.
Thanks anyway

App or Mod Request.

Hi,
Yes it's possible with a theme, you need a rom that supports Theme Chooser, something like that:

Or you need a VrTheme (flashable zip), I quickly looked but I have not found one.

Thanks
thats nice
I still feel someone can make a theme which is just like how google now looks .
But these will do

Is itc possible for the following.
1. Change colour of Google search on the home screen
2. Have more options for shortcuts in the lockscreen Carousel like below it I already have 3 including unlock
3 Have music toggle (isn't an option on my ROM (root box))

[Q] GS4 Wallpapers

So I have a few questions I have yet to find questions to anywhere.
1) Why when I set the wallpaper from an icon pack does it only change the homescreen and not the lockscreen? This is with multiple icon packs and I cannot figure out why. It seems like I always have to go through settings to change both at the same time, but this will not let me use icon pack wallpapers.
2) Why am I forced to use the light unlock effect when using a live wallpaper? I have mine set to no effect, but as soon as I set a live wallpaper I am forced back to the light effect and the setting to change it is greyed out.
Thanks for the help guys. Sorry if there are already enough questions on this.
