Hello all, this is my first time posting sth here...
Cut the chatters, this is the stock "Nexus" LWP from Nexus S (crespo/soju) 2.3.6 factory image, deodexed.
I've done plenty of searches for this LWP, quite a lot of results pop up from keywords like "Nexus S LWP" or "2.3 Nexus LWP"... But as far as I can see, some are Eclair version of that "Nexus", some are variants that only changes the background to the Nexus S one (The real difference? If you know "Nexus" displays stripes running across the screen, then you see, authentic GB "Nexus" has stripes in different widths, making it look MUCH better than the Eclair/Froyo "Nexus" with identical stripe width)
I became bored with all this search when I came up with an idea: why not grab a Nexus S "stock" ROM and extract its goodies? The authentic one is definitely in there...
So there it goes. Took me a while to get the download site for the factory image and took me more to learn to deodex (damn, the stock ROM is odexed) and finally I got the LiveWallpapers.apk out and running on my good ol Nokia N900 w/ Android 2.3.7 (woo-hoo)... Screenie below.
PAY ATTENTION TO HOW STRIPES VARY IN WIDTH:

}
Then...
PREREQUISITES:
1. A rooted ANDROID phone (iOS stay away!)
2. Android version >= 2.3.3. Not sure if this works with ICS/JB, but who needs it anyway? We have Phase Beam (LOL)
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
0. Make sure you have root
1. Transfer the attached LiveWallpapers.apk to sdcard
2. Use RootExplorer or whichever file manager you like (BUT with root permission enabled, of course) and move /sdcard/LiveWallpapers.apk to /sysem/app. Replace if there is already one (backup first)
3. Modify the permission of /system/app/LiveWallpapers.apk to the same as other files in the same folder (at least most ROMs I came across has rw-r--r-- in /system/app)
4. Reboot and enjoy
Notify me if I'm wrong or sth, you see I'm a Chinese and not quite good at this...
And... Hope you all enjoy my work!

You can either push bootanimation.zip yourself, or use the flashable zips below for what type of rom youre running...
Nice one
This is so cool .. LOL
Im running CM 7 which one do i install
YEsssssssssssss awesome, thanks!
Use Who_bootani_AOSP.zip...
Landscape!
Since the Dell Streak boots in landscape, I had to rotate the files sideways and swap the pixel values in the desc.txt.
Displays in fullscreen for me now. =P
Attached, just in case anyone else with a Streak wanders in.
Can I just squee here for a little while. Thanks. Can't wait, this should be perfect for my TBolt when I get it later this month. (may even need to preview it on my DInc, for the early squee factor.)
Droid x2
Can some one make this qHD friendly?(for when its possible to flash it to the drodx2 xD, Now i'm sad)
This is so great! And it really is a smooth on the phone ... great work, thanks!
Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
This looks Great, can I please ask which one should I use with my Galaxy S2 running KE7 with CWM.
Can someone make this as a live wallpaper? That'd be swank.

+1 for me!
This was a cinch to flash and oh, so pretty.
Thanks so much, this is brilliant!
im using CM6, so i use AOSP right?
how to flash? any topic has instructions on installing bootanimation?
Fantastic!!
Love it!
So, for Galaxy S II, simply copy bootanimation.zip into /system/media/ folder and restart!
Hi, does one need to have a custom firmware ?
I got a Nexus S with stock ROM.
or how do you flash it ?
BTW, +1 too to make it a live wallpaper.
Great job anyway

I had been looking for a sexy black GB keyboard for a while, finally found one and thought I'd share. This works on my Droid Incredible running MIUI, but I imagine it works for other HDPI devices.
THIS IS NOT MY WORK, ALL CREDIT GOES TO JAN-WILLEM3. THIS IS THE KEYBOARD FROM HIS JW MIUI ROM FOUND HERE
Requirements: Root Explorer
Instructions:
1. If you're using the stock "android keyboard", switch to any other input method (swype, swiftkey, smart keyboard, etc), as this is what we'll be replacing.
2. Check your system/app folder to see if you already have a LatinIME.apk. If so, move it to you SD card (in case you want to revert or it doesn't work). NOTE!: Make sure you have another keyboard installed and selected besides the "android keyboard", as this is what you're removing and replacing. This is just to have available while installing the new "android keyboard".
3. Move the new LatinIME.apk to system/app.
4. Set permissions. Permissions should look like everything else in system/app: rw-r--r--
5. Reboot.
6. Long press any text field, select "input method", and choose "android keyboard".
7. Enjoy the sexy new black GB keyboard!
Download: HERE
Thanks again to Jan-Willem3!
Lovely keyboard, many thanks.
Doesn't work. Constantly FCing.
Edit: the lib_...so file is missing, that's why it doesn't work.
f.
Edit 2: Added the lib file, but it seems this kb is for mdpi devices: very small and the colors are green+orange highlights and a black keyboard.
Forelli, what device are you using? This keyboard is originally for an HD2 rom, and I believe that's an HDPI device.
The keyboard is black with blue highlights, and green separators (these things | ) in the word suggestion bar right above the keyboard buttons.
Dont forget to give credit to this orginal creator
I only adjusted it for WVGA devices some small things in the colours and updated it to latest android source with extra languaes.
Gregtard the orginal creator of the keyboard.

Anyway you also themed it really really cool. This is why I love the android community
This is a collection of boot animations that I have made. Lots of thanks to JaeKar99 for talking me through this.
Check back often as I will update this with more animations from time to time.
Note: Only custom kernels will run a custom boot image.
Directions for Install:
1) Download file to your SD Card.
2) Rename the file to bootanimation.zip or sanim.zip depending on your kernel.
3) Move the file to system/media or data/local (if there is already a file there by that name you can either rename it to if you want to keep your current boot, or delete it.
4) Reboot and Enjoy
5) PROFIT (Just thank me)

Gingerbread men.... Heeh. Nice job on these!
any interest/potential to make this gif into a bootanimation? I am unsure how to, or I'd just do it. Perfect would be colors inverted IMO.
http://i.imgur.com/klbzt.gif
I could probably do it, but it is a long gif. I would have to either cut down the length or reduce the number of frames/sec. If I reduce the f/sec the images would go by too fast. If I cut it down, you would have to tell me where. 10 seconds is about the average boot time, so I try to keep them under that.
Good lord, all your base...you sir have won Android.
I'm glad you found the humor. I couldn't believe nobody had done it yet.
A new one based of the Lions Gate Intro:

Heres one I put together based on some PCB Walpaper.
Download:PCB
If you have downloaded this prior to 8:00am 4/7 please download again as I upped the FPS to make the video smoother (however it shortens the sequence)
FYI- All boot images over 4megs will NOT loop in ICS. If they are under 4 megs they will.
So here goes nothing......
Welcome to my Wickid worldof freshness.

Why?
Because in my opinion Touchwiz is really ugly and outdated looking. Replaced many icons/colors with stock Holo ones, replaced all the cheesy rounded borders and gradients with hard edges and flat surfaces, made many things grayscale. Colors should be used for emphasis, not cluttering the whole interface for no good reason.
Why XXLPP/XXLPS/4.0.4?
Because for my needs Jellybean 4.1.x is a step back in functionality. They added lots of stuff that is useless for me (eg. multiuser), and made stuff I really need way more difficult (eg. mounting CIFS on /sdcard).
What is themed?
Settings.apk, SystemUI.apk, framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk. Everything is treated with OptiPNG/DeflOpt/JPEGOptim and zipaligned.
How to install?
Do a Nandroid. Flash the .zip in TWRP or CWM. Wipe Cache/Dalvik. Reboot.
The XXLPP version was made for SkyHigh ROM P6810XXLPP ICS v4.2 - I don't know if it works on stock XXLPP. If it breaks something, just reinstall the backup you made earlier. Maybe it works on P6800 too, but then you have to remove the assert(getprop) line in the updater script.
The XXLPS version was made for the stock ROM.
Optional: The Dummy Files pack contains dud replacements for all the annoying audio and animation crap Samsung packed in their ROM. This is not a flashable ZIP (because I was too lazy to create the updater script ). Unpack the archive, mount /system in recovery, push the folders manually, and chmod the files to 644. Then you're rid of all the pings, clicks, wooshes, and plops that Samsung found cool to have in their interface, without any option to turn that junk off.

Nice work. Thanks for sharing :thumbup:
Think I'll give it a go, but real busy right now. Downloading for later
BTW, I see from your screenshot that you're using an older kernel. kernel is updated today to v2.8.0
Sent from my GT-P6810 using xda premium
Cheers, UpInTheAir - thanks for the heads up.
Sure is a nice kernel you built - upgrading to the newest as we speak. Too bad you discontinued your ROM, but it's nice as it is... (I, for one, don't care about synthetic benchmarks at all - I only care that games and movies aren't laggy and choppy. )
Oh, and v0.2 of my theme is up for grabs in the first post as well.
Added a theme version for XXLPS and audio/animation dummy files in the first post.
