Hi everyone,
I would just like to know the location to stock lockscreen wallpaper of ICS ROMs? I tried all kind of .apk's in system folders, I found like 10 wallpapers, but the stock one of this ROM wasn't there...
Any idea to where I can find it?
Thanks.
Ho to System/ Apps/ LgHome.apk
Go extract the APK, go to drawable-res scroll and you find all of them!

Yeah, I also thought it would be there, but it isn't. Just looked for a 3rd time..
That apk has like 12 wallpapers, but the stock one on lockscreen isn't there. The stock of the ROM isn't even visible when you enter the "change wallpaper" thing.. It is just applied as stock....
Hey...You want lockscreen is it?? PM me.. Why flood the Forum simply..

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.

Sounds like you should be able to according to post # 5 above.
I have installed the wildpuzzle froyo 2.2 rom onto my HTC wildfire but I still cant use live wallpaper. But when i go to menu -- wallpaper -- Home -- Live Wallpaper, it shows the option Live wallpapers, but when i click on a live paper, it does not change it, why?
You must delete HTC Sense and use other Luncher (ADW.Launcher / LauncherPRO etc.). Delete are simple, use htc_app_remove.zip update file
Where do i get the launcher and how to use it?
and where to download the remove thing and how to use it?
Both can be found in the android market. For the launcher, there are Launcherpro and ADW among others. You install them and then at your home screen press your home screen button and you should be able to select the launcher you have installed. To delete apps and other things, search for Astro File Manager. It's the best free file manager. After the installation of Astro (or your chosen file manager), find a folder called "system." Then another folder called "apps." Finally, you can delete whatever files that you wish.

You have to install the Live Wallpaper launcher. There are apks floating around for it all over XDA. Just search for it. Then you can go to town.

Live Wallpapers are not officially supported. Hence, there is no such option on the official update. ROM Dev's additionally add support for LWP's.
Well, since you are now on the "unrootable" 2.2.1 update, you are out of luck for now unfortunately.

I used to be on darky's rom and just flashed seearms rom (for several reasons)
In darky's rom when you want to add widgets to the homescreen, the several widget option for the same app used to be combined together. I know there is an app/tool for this, but can't seem to find it now. Please point me in the right direction

Hi,
What do you mean by "the several widget option for the same app used to be combined together"?
Id like to help but I dont think I understand what you mean...
I know what your talking about.
Search here on xda for 'App Widget Picker' - put it in /system/app with root explorer. No reboot necessary.
Actually, screw it. File is attached haha.
Rename it to appwidgetpicker.apk.
Thanks.. this makes selecting widgets so much easier!!

try the framework-res.apk in system\framework
NOT sure it gets unpacked anywhere
The default wallpaper for themes, are stored in the framework-res.apk as silashack mentioned. You can open this file with 7z or something similar and the wallpaper is located in res/drawable/default_wallpaper and res/drawable-hdpi/default_wallpaper or res/drawable-hdpi-v4/default_wallpaper

Does anyone have the 2 blue wallpaper images that come with launcher pro? I can't find them anywhere and only managed to get it while on the lite bluesky theme. I don't want to add them theme again as I'm running darkys rom and it is super quick. If anyone could post the files I would be most grateful!

u mean change only icons ? if thats the case , then u need a theme manager to change the theme. some themes change only icons, some change everything. but the icon set is inside a theme. themes support specific launchers. so its possible that ur favorite launcher doesnt support ur favorite theme ( for the icons ). the other way around is to use a root explorer and change every little icon manually inside apks.

Better yet, you can make your own theme. Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44609532
You can get everything you need to know about making your own theme there.
BTW, thanks for searching the Forum/Web first, because some people just don't.
Good luck

the stock one is LGHome3.apk.
since u use an alternative launcher look for it in data/app. apps u install go there. in system/app are the system apps that have root access.
well I found it as u said, it's LGHome3.apk.
used ninjamorfh, exchanged the icons, finished my project and wooow: I soft brick my phone
the launcher disappeared and after reset it was stuck in the logo.
so after about 4-5 nervous hours of pushing apk thru adb, recovery, software reset, wiping it all , download rom, flash stock rom with kdz,
restore my 120 apps, restoring backup files, I was able to bring my 4x back to life as it was before.
so conclusion :
some things don't worth to **** with :laugh: LOL
if u want to change ur app drawer icon don't be hard headed like me, create a theme or install a launcher that can do it.
anyway,
anyone that helped me in this thread .....thanks

i guess there is a reason why there is no app that can change manually the app drawer icon, It could get messy.
I used ninjamorph app (root app), it should decompile/recompile the apk automatically.

if it is only for icon , u can just treat the apk as if it was a zip. just open it with the zip manager and force the icon to replace the one u want.
