Hello I'm trying to enable live wallpaper support on my rooted amazon fire 5th gen tablet, I sideloaded wallpaper picker apk into /system/app with rw-r-r permissions but it just crashes can anyone help? does it require a lib or bin file to work?
P.S. I'm sorry If This post isn't the most organized I don't usually post to Xda unless there is a lack of posts on a topic or if the only posts are antiquated i.e. this one from 2012 obviously not very helpful with a newer generation kindle

if you downloaded the picker from this post you also need to download either the livewallpapers.apk or download one of the other separate live wallpaper apks. if that still doesn't work I'm going to have to upload one of my other pickers but I am at work and won't be home for several hours. I will do that later if needed. let me know your results and I'll see what I can do tomorrow if I need to do anything at all.
Also check system/etc/permissions for android.software.live_wallpapers.xml. if that is not present in your permissions folder you need to download that from somewhere doesn't matter where and add it to your folder and set the right permissions.

Anyone able to make the galaxy s boot animation into a live wallpaper? I have absolutely no idea how to do this or I'd try it myself. It would be really cool to have just the pulsating S and maybe when you touch it it could break apart/recombine.
I second that wallpaper
Third.
That would be really cool to have our own themed live wallpaper - so currently, I'm using "Galaxy" and that's as good as I've got!
That's what I had been doing too.

The boot animation is stored in a proprietary .QMG file. The format is called qmage and its by quramsoft. I have been unable to locate any decoder or encoder any where on the internet. No demo is even available on quram's website.
Although /system/media/video/shutdown does contain 60 .PNG files of the galaxy S logo dissolving.
I don't know much about live wallpaper design but it should be possible to use those files to create a background that would appear static until you touched it and have that trigger the animation of the S dissolving.
Ill make one!
i fourth that? lol
Fithed?
I hate proprietary files...damn them!
Shoot, that'd be awesome. I got pixel zombie on now, but I'd change in a heartbeat. Not a coder though

It is not proprietary http://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/vavasis/qmg-home.html
you can download it yourself.

The QMG project and the .qmg QMAGE files that samsung uses are very different.
See http://quramsoft.com/solution_e/qmage.asp
If you open the playlogos1 bin file with a binary file view (e.g bvi) you will see that the bin file loads a qmage decoder before it executes the *.QMG files.

hm... I'm not sure of what you are talking about.
I've installed it both with adb install and from the ASTRO filemanager.
Try getting ASTRO from the market, then download apk and open it from ASTRO.
XorZone, thanks for the backgrounds. They look awesome. I have a suggestion, is there a way to take the two wallpapers you created and make it one? That way it dissolves and merges together all in one wallpaper?

So i rooted my brothers kindle fire hd tonight on request.
he had downloaded an app from the Google store called freekindle or kindlefree where you basically download launchers.
deciding he didnt like these launchers and wanted to delete them he went into ES File Explorer and basically deleted the stock launcher.apk file that comes with the kindle. The kindle is still booted up and is running right now on a different launcher but i NEED to get it back to normal. If anyone can please help i will be so very grateful.

why do you want normal ?, you can put other like go launcher or nova launcher
Here's the stock Launcher.apk from the latest KFHD 7" software (7.2.3)
Try putting it back in the system/app directory and set the permissions to --rw-r-r-- with ES Explorer if not already like that.
Reboot the Kindle Fire after doing that & see if it works.

Certain apps such as the Kindle app don't launch in 3rd party launchers like Nova or Go Launcher, also sometimes they can crash (unlikely, but can happen) so having the default one to fall back on is not a bad idea
Fwiw
You can get these files from the amazon updates download on their page... just rename the download to zip

This will be a thread collection of custom boot animations for everyone to share with each other.
Fell free to post any you like, make sure it is 1080x1920!
In most roms (not every), the boot/down animations will go in: system/customize/resource
They will also have to be renamed like this:
hTC_bootup_one.zip
hTC_downanimation.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I believe this will change once 4.2.2 is out. I will update this post when the new update rolls out.
To Setup Custom Boot Animation
1.) Download boot/down animation of choice (1080x1920)
2.) Download a root file explorer (es file explorer, root explorer)
3.) Copy the boot animation zip file
4.) Navigate to /system/customize/resource with explorer
5.) Paste zip file
6.) Rename old boot/down animation with .bak at the end
7.) Rename new boot/down animation
I will start first and post what I have been using for boot/down animations.
This is a Beats Audio animation. The same one that comes with viperROM just without the viper part.
If this starts to grow I can even turn this OP into a list and get everything organized to help everyone find stuff a little easier.
Thanks for starting this man!

Attached is one I love. Gonna be making it a bit cleaner and such, however, I did not make the original images. I simply modified it to be 1080 1920 with a 20 fps rate. I also increased the resolution of the original images slightly.
Enjoy.

I've attempted to use these in lieu of Sprint's boot animations. But after a reboot, both of Sprint's animations have overwritten the one's that I've replaced them with. How do I prevent that from happening?
Thanks!
What rom? Did you delete the sprint ones and rename the new ones to match whats in the default.xml in the CID folder(system/customize/CID)

Sure hit me up later and I'll help out (nope same speed and length just smaller file and arrangement little different)

After my kindle updated to 7.4.3 no background on any themes for go launcher ex show up anymore. It just shows a black screen. All the icons work like normal and change with the themes but no background. I've restored to factory settings rooted again, and reinstalled everything and still have black screen as a background. Any help would be appreciated, thanks. I've also posted in general but since I'm new I'm not sure if general is where I should post this so I'm posting it here as well. If I should delete one or the other please let me know.
I made a fix for X.4.1, but amazon decided to release and update that makes my fix not work, if you have 7.4.3 could you send or post this file on the following thread so I can see if I can fix this so it works again? Need this file /system/framework/framework-res.apk

If u post that I might be able to fix it, but if you use the tool I have released on that thread it won't work.

Sorry to barge in, however does anyone know how to remove go launcher EX and HD? There is no option to uninstall it from the application menu (just force stop) and es won't let me delete it from the system/apps folder
Also, I've installed Nova and Apex, however they are not showing up anywhere on my device
You have to enable the root options in as file explorer to delete system apps, check all of them off and it should work.
