Nexus Animated Wallpapers on Droid

P3Droid · 12-21-2009, 01:05 AM

Okay I was able to get the animated live wallpapers working on the 2.1 ROM (only Nexus does not work).

Disclaimer: This can brick your phone and should only be done if you know what you are doing and are willing to take the risk, I bear no responsibility for your actions.

Directions.

1. Download this zip file, it contains the necessary lib files and the live wallpaper files.
wallpaper files - MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service
lib files - MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

2. Unzip these files and place on your SDCARD. (I created 2 folders one named libs and the other app). You need to place the four Live wallpaper files in the app folder and the lib files need to be in the lib folder.

3. Restart your phone in the recover console.
4. Select mount sub-menu
5. mount sdcard and system
6. type busybox cp /sdcard/libs/* /system/lib
7. type busybox cp /sdcard/app/* /system/app
8. unmount both sdcard and system
9. restart your phone

edit: tried it. phone reboots into recovery before going to bootanimation. cant even run adb shell. yea, i fixed adb

i had to restore from backup to fix

Wondering if it might work on 2.0.1. Might have to try it when I get home from work tonight.

P3Droid,

Since you got the Live Wallpapers working (great job) can you possiblty make the new DeskClock app installable by mere mortals(unrooted) like a normal app? I hate the current MultiMedia Dock clock and would love to have the new 2.1 version (deskclock.apk)

Since it has a companion ODEX file I assume it can't be instaled like a standalone APK file.

Would donate to the cause for an normal installable app for this :-)

I hope that was sarcasm.

If not, do NOT try this. It's for users who are running the 2.1 rom ONLY.
