Request any live wallpaper theme you want and we will see if can get it done.


Here is some work from us so far. http://androidforums.com/all-things-root-droid/63554-coheed-cambria-live-wallpaper.html




I would like to ask everyone to find us a pic of what you want. It will save us time and let you have exactly what you want.

Here is how you install your LWP

This is for Bugless Beast and NexBeast only.

1) Download the file
2) Place the LWP on the root of your SD card
3) Rename the file to LiveWallpapers.apk
4) Open up Terminal Emulator
5) Type in
su
switchlwp
and thats it.

Here is the long way if you dont have any of Pete's great scripts.

Also use this if your on 2.2
Take off any LWP before doing this.
su
mount -o,rw remount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system/
cp /sdcard/LiveWallpapers.apk /system/app/LiveWallpapers.apk
reboot
Also if someone could confirm that these work on CM then that would be great. Im running Nexbeast at the moment and have not had time to check them.

With 2.2 leak released I will now need to know if your are on 2.2 or still on 2.1. I will redo any LWP thats has already been done also upon request.
 
Asteroids, or something generic-looking (Smashteroids? lol)

How about a water theme, where the phone would look like a glass filled partway with water, and the water would flow around the screen as it was tilted...

Maybe have the Dozers (Fraggle Rock) walking around the phone building stuff?

Might want to wait til 2.2, since my ideas sound like battery HOGS.

Thanks for soliciting the input.

Detroit Redwings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll do this one, since it seems like Snake has a few to do from another thread. What color or image would you like in the background? I only ask because if I make the background red, then the LEDs would need to be white, not sure if you will like that. If I do a white background, then I can do red LEDs. Or I can put a picture underneath...Just let me know...

Take as many as you want cause they want me to do one with the website logos also.

I appreciate it guys! On top of Texas Rangers and New York Giants, how about a wallpaper that incorporates the superuser app logo? That little ninja dude with a gun? I don't know if you could get it big enough, or anything. Just an idea.

I wish I had time to code that for you but unfortunately I don't. I will have to stick to just modding the existing LWP at this point but those are great ideas. ;)
