stock nexus/droid live wallpapers?

are their any apks floating around with LWPs like neural network or nexus or galaxy? They were on kaoslegendary but they were buggy, so im now on extROM and LWPs run very smooth, but i cant seem to find an apk for the ones i like. im not a fac of nexusmod, it FCs on extROM.

I'm wondering the same.. I can't seem to find much either.

i will try and pull them out of kaos legendary and post them up here (if possible) but don't get your hopes to high
EDIT:can't find them in kaos legendary (going to try to find them in the nexus one froyo files)
EDIT#2 cant find them there either (sorry, try someone else)

go to theunlockr.com and download the rom eris_LP_0_1.zip and there will be a live wallpapers.apk file and install that file. and they will be the original files there

Here's the .apk extracted from hotwingz2180's link, so you don't have to download the whole 100mb file.
It added the stock wallpapers to my list, but I got force closes when I selected them. Maybe you will have better luck.

thx for the apk! i put it on my phone and everything worked right... but when i try and preview a lwp it just crashes... and if i try and set it, it just goes back to a regular default wallpaper. im on leak root cyanogen 6.

Not my work.... I'm just the messenger.
This is a customizable Nexus background.
You can choose from themes and backgrounds.
It is a great app.

Adding Teeter to ROM

Is there any way I can get Teeter on my girlfriends Eris? She's running Cyanogen Tazz v6. She really digs it, but i cannot find it anywhere. Thanks.

im sure there are places you could find it but you could download a sense rom that has it and then use unyaffs to extract the image and grab the file yourself.

Pull any sense Rom and open it... pull teeter.apk from system/app. Then, use adb install or adb push (to system/app) and u should be good to go.
As always, backup before trying (though it shouldn't harm your phone

i pulled teeter from the lightning ROM and Astro wouldnt install the teeter.apk

Ebuddy 1.9.1 apk for theming?

I love ebuddy on android, it's better than the official chinese MSN I posted a few weeks ago but I am sick of silver, white and orange. I am unfamiliar with how to get the apk files from apps installed from the android market.
Could someone, anyone please provide me with the apk file for ebuddy 1.9.1 (the most recent) so I can do some colour variations?
Cheers.

www.developer.android.com
Install the Android SDK, open Command Prompt and write:
Code:
adb devices
adb pull /data/app app
Or if you know the .apk name
Code:
adb pull /data/app/apkname.apk
That will create a new folder called app in your /tools folder with all your apps.

Ah cheers man, done it
will post some colour variations asap.

Better if you use apk tool: http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
Decompile: apktool d name.apk
Compile: apktool b name

Hmm still doesnt work. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong...

These resources seems 0 byte in the apk:
"drawable-hdpi-v6/chat_gray_back.9.png"
"drawable-hdpi-v6/chat_orange_back.9.png"
"drawable/chat_gray_back.9.png"
"drawable-hdpi-v4/chat_orange_back.9.png"
"drawable/chat_orange_back.9.png"
"drawable-hdpi-v4/chat_gray_back.9.png"

here's the zip file, if you can tell me what I've done wrong I'd really appreciate it.

Hmm..I let it compile, but fails to install the apk..
Hope someone much expert than me can help you

yeah, its weird how it wont install. like what I was trying to do though?

Download APKManager and you should be good.
EDIT: Didn't see the answers below mine for some reason ... I'm not at my desktop right now, but if no one has checked it by the time I get hope I'll see if I'm any help.

If you're just changing pngs, try to just extract the apk then zip it when changed. Ie. Don't decompile it
Do this using apkmanager

no idea why your file wont install...
I decompiled a fresh version of ebuddy, compiled back and installed, no probs.
But, for exchanging some png´s only, that´s what I do:
- take a fresh original version (v1.9.1 attached)
- open com.ebuddy.android-1.apk with 7-Zip
- copy/paste new png´s
- close file
- sign
- install

Reinstall Gallery?

Hey guys, I've tried searching around with no luck. I was working a little too fast uninstalling At&t bloatware and accidentally removed the Picture Gallery. I cannot seem to find a way to reinstall it. I've enabled non-market apps and have tried installing a few apk's from the forums but it always results in "application was not installed". Can someone please help me out?
Running stock Eclair

You can't just reinstall a system app like you would a non market app. You have to take the gallery.apk and use root explorer to place it in the appropriate location, which would be system/app.

Thanks. I had actually tried that too with the same results. Perhaps I didn't have the correct apk. Anyone have a specific version for the captivate?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App

You're still running stock? If so, you're gonna need to copy and paste both of these files into System/App through root explorer.
The apk is the actual Gallery. You have to unzip the other folder first!!!! Then move that file in with the apk.

That worked thanks! Yea I'm running stock. I've tried may ROMs but all the little bugs really bother me. Stock runs prefect and quite honesty, performance increase isn't very significant. Plus, I've customized it quite well to have most of the same features of 2.2+.

The Gallery 3D is actually in the market.
It's called "Gallery 3D" by Rayman50.

I'm a beginner at this, but if you can pull the /assets/keyboards folder out of the apk by using winrar or 7-zip, and you have something like photoshop or illustrator, etc, then you can go bonkers with the image files in there.
when you are done editing it then shove it back in the appropriate place in the apk.
Note that I am not on CM7, but I *think* it should be the same...?

Cool! Let me know if you have a way of changing the trace color. I've got that question posted in other threads, but while I'm doing my own reading, can't hurt to ask too many people, too.

man i dont know, how to do that, but i wanted to do a sype theme for my honeycomb theme so i dont mind the blue trace color, but if your find out remember to tell me ;-)

I have no idea how to do it, but I can tell you its located in the libswypecore.so file in /system/lib if that helps any?

man i only know how to work with Photoshop, im not very experiences in more complicated stuff! lol

i dont understand i had my swype theme working out in my phone and i reboot my phone and now it doesnt appear? i dont understand, how did you did it man?

Not sure what to tell you except that I modified a working swype from a custom rom and the theme stock after reboot.
Did you modify a beta swype directly? I'm not sure if that would even have been the problem, but had to ask.

i modified the new version the one that you need to install the swype installer and then through that app you get swype, that swype isnt in system/app, is in data/app

I don't even know if this will work. For all I know it could mess things up, big warning there.
Could you try to move that to /system/app and rename as Swype.apk (if it hasn't been done already --- not even sure that's necessary)?
...or even better...grap the Swype.apk and libSwypeCore.so file from a working custom ROM and use those and drop your own keyboard images on that one. That's what I did and it works for sure.
EDIT: Gonna be slow in responding for a bit. Getting dragged out of the house to Home Depot. Uggghhhh.

In order to theme the swype tail, you need to decomplie the apk. Then you edit res/values/colors. You will see
color name="TRACE_PATH_COLOR">#xxxxxx</color>

Do what Nunhugger said. It worked like a charm!

If you downloaded Swype from the web page and installed it with their installer, then it'll be installed here:
