Help Live wallpaper help

[VulturePenguin]

Hi guys, I've had my s2 for about 6 months now and still absolutely love it, great phone and it works perfectly. I've been quite happy with static wallpapers until today where I decided to try out some live wallpapers. I searched online on how to do so and the info said to download one I liked from the android market which I did and then go back to the home screen, select menu, wallpapers and then live wallpapers and select the wallpaper I had downloaded. The only problem is that when I do this there is no live wallpapers option. All I get for options are 'gallery' and wallpaper gallery' I've searched all over my phone for the 'live wallpaper' option but it's simply not there. I also tried opening the live wallpaper I'd downloaded from within the app store but nothing happens.

My phone is rooted and running android 2.3.5 (no rom)

Any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers!

Did you try long pressing on the home screen to bring up the menu rather than go in through the settings? That always worked better for me when helping others with their phone - you should have the option from there for live wallpapers to be selected. It's not usually under wallpapers - it's got its own setting.

What sort of live wallpaper are you looking for? And two what sort of options or settings are you hoping to find in the live wallpaper?

You are suppose to be at the right place. Go to menu/wallpaper/livewallpaper and you will have some live wallpaper to choose from. Even the stock phone comes with a few live wallpaper. Some of those don't have any special settings that you can use.

Some downloaded live wallpaper might not be in that location though. It could just be in the menu/wallpaper and not in the live wallpaper section.

Cheers

Here is a page with (direct links to) all the original 2.3.3 APKs from the international version, your phone must be lacking one or more of these if it doesn't show the live wallpaper choice. I know this because I downloaded the Wallbase app and it added itself as a 4th option in the menu.

On this page, press Ctrl+F (may vary by browser) to open up the search function and then type in 'wallpaper' and go through all the .APKs to do with wallpaper.

Since you're rooted, it might be easier to look in Titanium Pro and find out which ones aren't on the phone first compared to the page I linked.
