I'm going to put this post together as a combination of cut/paste from other posts and freshly typed instructions. This is EXACTLY what I did to my 2.1 Moment to get Live Wallpapers.

I give FULL credit to the other posters.

------------------------------------------------------------

-This post is assuming you already have the 2.1 update-

Files Used:

CCLeaner
OLD CL14 SAMSUNG INSTALLER
New Recovery File
Live Wallpaper ZIP

-Follow EXACTLY. Don't deviate-


1) Go to Control Panel. Remove EVERYTHING Samsung from your Add/Remove section. This will remove all of the drivers etc.

2) Go to your Program Files (x86 if needed) section under 'My Computer'. Delete the 'Samsung Electronics' folder.

3) If you have CCLeaner and are comfortable using the Registry tool, clean your registry of anything Samsung. This will ensure that your new install doesn't use the old stuff.

4) RESTART

5) Install the OLD CL14 SAMSUNG INSTALLER onto your PC. This is important as the NEW installer won't use non-signed packages.

6) RESTART

7) Download the new Recovery and KEEP IT IN ITS DOWNLOADED FORMAT.

8) Go back to the Samsung Electronics folder (that you would've deleted earlier) and head to SWUpgrade\Models\Binary. Remove the file inside, probably called "SPH-M900_MR2_DE03_REL_1.tar". Delete it, move it - whatever.

9) Copy the Recovery file you just downloaded into that folder. DO NOT EXTRACT IT.

10) TURN OFF YOUR PHONE and remove the battery for about 10 seconds. Replace battery. DO NOT TURN IT BACK ON.

11) HOLD 'VolDown+Camera+End'. A DOWNLOADING screen should appear.

12) Start the SWUpdate that should be on your desktop. Otherwise, it's back in the Samsung Electronics folder from earlier.

13) FOLLOW THE ONSCREEN INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY. I can't stress that enough...

14) After it applies the Recovery file (which is why you placed it in the Binary folder), RESTART YOUR PHONE.

15) Copy the Live Wallpaper ZIP file to your SDCard. DO NOT put it into a folder. Just copy it to the root of the card (meaning it's by itself and not in a folder). DO NOT EXTRACT.

16) POWER OFF YOUR PHONE

17) HOLD 'VolDown+Call(Green)+End(Red)'. This will put you into Recovery Mode. Using the VolUp/VolDown keys, scroll to 'Apply Update.zip' and press the center key. Select the Zip File you just copied to your SDCard. After it processes, RESTART YOUR PHONE.

18) BOOYA! After your phone boots up, you should be able to hit Menu then Wallpapers and you should see Live Wallpapers as a heading.

This doesn't ROOT your phone, only adds Live Wallpapers to your Moment. After the zip is applied, you can delete it from your SDCard.

I hope this helps.

Can I generate several versions of the update script from http://www.joeyconway.com/sdx/custom/index.php?

I've got one on now, but can I take a couple, rename them and put them on my SD card, then load them from recovery when I want a change? Is there any problem that may be caused by doing this more than once? I'd like to try those themes out.

A related question - once an app (like the Nascar one) has been removed by a zip created by that generator, do I have to select it again to ensure that I don't have it when I load the new settings?
