Where is a Rom's default wallpaper stored?

I want to extract the stock wallpaper that came with a certain rom. Where in the rom would I be able to find it?

These are possible places to look:
-Framework-res.apk(extract the apk)-->/drawables folders
-Launcher.apk(extract apk)
-Rosie.apk(sense rom)
-(Theme name)Lightshow.apk,nature.apk,etc(MtSlide rom)

im new to the whole rom thing but i was under the impression my phone was going to look exactly like the pictures i saw of the rom ha. guess not.

framework-res.apk
res-->drawable-->default_wallpaper.jpg

Its in framework-res.apk you can extract the apk using 7zip.
pull the framework-res.apk from /system/framework off of the phone.
Once its extracted look in res/drawable-hdpi the name of the file is default_wallpaper.jpg

This rom works great, however when I try to change the Homescreen wallpaper and select a wallpaper from astro file manager, I get FC every time. If I use the built in wallpapers, it works.

WHAT ROM? Maybe you should post in the thread of the ROM you're using, just in case that's part of the issue.
Instead of resurrecting a dead thread. No offense, but come on.

wrongly posted... nothing specific for htc droid eris, so deleted...

haha wrong thread

Is there a way to replace the default wallpaper in the apk? Every time the UI crashes I keep having to look at this crappy blue and purple wallpaper.

no live wallpapers cm7?

Is there a way to get the live wall paper picker APK to work on cm7?

Ok I installed live wallpaper picker. APK with root explorer and rebooted, no luck. Also tried nexus s live wallpaper APK.

My live wallpapers were working, and then the picker disappeared.
It was either v3 or the new kernel that killed it.

live wallpaper picker works for me.

Can you post up your apk

this is the one i used with root explorer, when i get home im going to try to push it with adb
let me know if it works for you

I tried that one in root explorer earlier. Force closes on start

how to install the picker?

[Q] Live Wallpaper Question

I'm using Gingerbread XWJVA rooted and I tried to import the Live Wallpaper called Beach from Froyo 2.2, and I put the .apk in the system/app directory but it doesn't run.
Is it possible to import this Live Wallpaper ?
Thanks a lot.

Cant you just install the APK with a filemanager ?

If I click in the apk, I can install it, but when I´m going to choose the Live Wallpaper, I get a FC all the time.

I assume you were referring to this live wallpaper?
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.accesslane.livewallpaper.beach
I just installed it from market and was able to load it without problem. I am using deodexed JVB. Have you tried installing it from market?

Thanks for the help, but the Live Wallpaper that I want to install is another one.

did u change the permissions?

Yes I did.
It installs just fine, but I get a FC when I try to change the Live Wallpaper.

I am in the same situation. I have Gingerbread JVH on my Samsung Galaxy i9000 and after i installed Beach Live Wallpaper when i opened it I received a FC screen. I love that wallpaper. Please advice.

same boat!
Has anybody managed to get this working?

Beach Live wallpaper
It will take asking a dev.

[Q] Live Wallpaper Picker not included in CM9.1 RC4.1?

Couldn't find a thread that I thought would solve my problem. But...
Where can I find a compatible livewallpaperpicker.apk for CM9.1 RC4.1 by Wayland_ACE?
I want my live wallpapers back, someone please help.
Also when I get the .apk, installation would be:
Download .apk
Move to /system/apps
Set permissions to rw-r--r--
Reboot
Right?

same problem here ..

Some of the cm9 releases have a bug in the lwps. May be that's why it is not included here...
I used to have beautiful life before. Now I'm in engineering...!

[Collection]Asus things

Hi, I've been collecting asus things(widgets, etc.) for a while so I wanted to share that with you.
Email widget: Just push it to system/app, you don't have to set permissions.
Task manager widget: Push to system/app, you don't have to set permissions.
Supernote app: Install it as usual app and use it in landscape mode since it's for higher resolutions.
Wallpapers: Extract them
Weather widget and live wallpaper: Flash that one .zip via recovery
Media: Extract it, then you'll get alarms, notifications, ringtones and ui. After that go to system/media/audio and replace the old alarms, notifications, ringtones and ui. I'm not sure if that last one will work since I didn't test it. Try and tell me. Make a backup first.
Issues: Live wallpaper is working very slow, if you have any idea how to make it "lighter", tell me or you could do it yourself.
Works well on NexusHD2 jellybean, so it will probably work on all aosp based roms that are 4.0 or higher(you can try them on 2.3 too to see if they work).
EDIT: Supernote included here isn't working, download the one that I tried and that works here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2034960(thanks to jujuburi)
