Hi
When you look at "/system/etc/lockscreen/port" on your hero device you will find 9 differrent wallpapers.
why are these images on the rom even you can't choose one of them? Or is it possible, where?
Just wondering...
That's the wallpapers of the HTC-scene's that are shipped with the rom
Thanks, never used multiple scenes

Searched (here and google) but couldn't find an answer. If it has already been posted, I apologise.
I just got my HTC Hero and I'm adjusting quite well from the change from WM6 to Android (used to have the HTC Touch Pro, aka the Raphael I think) but I was wondering whether HTC sense on the Hero interface can be changed (e.g. clock, colours) or if there are skins available, like there were for WM. Just to be clear, I know there are loads of apps out there (OpenHome, aHome etc) to change the normal interface, but they all seem to be focused on the Hero without the Sense interface. I want the Sense interface, but would like to change the analogue clock, the colours etc.
Thanks in advance!
No you can't really do that at the moment.
But there are several widgets for clock, you can change the background and the lock screen. Or you can pu any widget that you want instead of HTC's
haven't seen those either, not for Sense anyway, do you maybe have links/names of those apps for me? would really appreciate it! thanks!
Photo Clock is a good one. It has about 10 different faces, including 2 or 3 where you can choose a photo or your own pic as the base background for the clock. Just type clock into the market... All clock widgets for android can be used "for sense" - you just dump the HTC Clock widget and load one from the Android Widgets section. That goes for all android widgets.
I'm assuming you know there are 13 different clocks on the HTC Clock widget for Hero?

No, I didn't know that, I've only had it a couple of days and did look around on the phone for ways to change it, but I don't seem to be able to find it (I realise I'm sounding like a complete noob now, but oh well). The Photo Clock app sounds good as well, will have a look at that if (after someone has been so kind as to help me locate the different styles for the standard app) I don't like them.
Thanks for helping me out with this!
edit: I just found it! power of posting I guess It was under HTC-widget and I'd only been looking under Android-widget...Now I think about it, not too smart...
So you're sorted? Its not that obvious tho I have to say, as the options for screen widgets only come up when you choose them, so unless you dump one then reapply, you don't see them.
On all HTC widgets there's a little number (1/12) at the bottom saying how many options for views there are for that widget - some have loads, others only 1.
Also check out the SCENES - I only just got round to seeing those - they are like template arrangements of screen widgets that you can switch to and fro between, and also gives the option to save different custom arrangements.
I have one with links to all my porn and a photoframe with naked men that I have to quickly turn off and swap for the business one with the classy blue world wallpaper in case the hubby sees.... (kidding...)
They look seriously useful but I've not had a full mess with them yet. It was VERY simple to pop back to my own eclectic Scene set up tho

Can someone give me the .zip for the blur wallpapers. I tried searching through numerous blur rom's with no luck. Thanks in advance.
the only wallpaper i have noticed is an killer looking autumn one, included here. none of the other walls i have seen look any different then the normal ones.
Hi there!
I just uploaded a rather huge landscape wallpaper collection, more than 270 backgrounds that look great on the HTC Hero. If you want some more wallpapers for your homescreen, here's the address:
Landscape Wallpapers (640×480 and 800×480)
There is of course apps for downloading wallpapers straight to your phone as well, like Zedge and AndroLib Wallpapers.
Does anyone know of any more good collections? I think Interfacelift has some of the best landscape wallpapers on the Web.
Couldn't find a specific wallpaper thread here, so I hope it's okay I made a brand new one
Cheers

Deviantart.com has some amazing stuff on it, although most will have to resized to fit. If you collect a few of them you can always batch resize in Adobe Bridge or similar programs.
I know this question has been asked already, but the suggested locations given for Android 2.x don't appear to be the same in Honeycomb.
I applied the wallpaper directly from within my browser (if I recall) and don't have it stored locally in the Pictures or Downloads directories, so I was hoping somebody would know where android caches it. I've had a look through the file system but I couldn't see anything that stood out.
I also tried an app called "Wallpaper set and save", which I thought was going to come through, but the result looked horrid - I suppose that's something to do with using it on HC.
I'm using a stock UK xoom (unrooted).
Any suggestions welcome.
Same here. Looking for answer, please.

The way that honeycomb applies wallpapers is really wacky. If you have 3.1 you will see guides when you crop using the wallpaper tool. If you do not have 3.1, download one of the templates available in the forums and you will see what is "useable".
problem is that HC stock wallpapers are stored inside in Launcher2.apk.
I've just found the way how to set wallpaper in the best quality, resolution and without distortion/blur
If u use this method u not loose any part of your picture cos there is no crop it just fit the whole picture on full screen
All u need is this app MultiPicture Live Wallpaper and its free
So how to ?
-long press on homescreen
-than go to Wallpaper->Live Wallpaper and select MultiPicture Live Wallpaper
-select Setting and set your folder with your wallpapers
Done
This app actually changing the wallpapers in particular time but u can also sett it to use only one picture if u don't like changing
There is a lot more settings what u can play with if u like
So enjoy
Since this was brought up, where does the 2.x Android versions store the current wallpaper?
Hello guys!
Ive found some really good looking digital clock images (numbers) and im looking for a clock widget that supports images for each number instead of using fonts.
Any ideas?
Beautiful widgets for example does support images for numbers but i want a cleaner clock with no dates etc
weather & toggle widgets?
why not develop the font you want its actually pretty easy if you have the pictures there is a couple of font making tools for both linux and windows. I've done it before its fairly easy but a little meticulous.

You can skin your own Fancy Widgets, or Beautiful Widgets - I do. Pretty easy - no need to decompile apk, just edit the png's from another theme's files that get stored to your sd card when you download a theme from their respective markets.
