Possible to get iphone Live Photo capabilities? - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Themes and Apps

I was told to post my question here, so here goes..
Any chance on getting a Dev to take a shot at getting the Live Photo function that's out on the new iPhone S6 plus? Looking for the actual video pic capabilities to create live wallpaper and share as a gif ... Possible?
Thanks for the consideration

Go Into camera and goto modes and check if you have the Animated GIF option if not then in the mode option there is an option to download more modes..download the animated GIF option

Yes, I have it but it doesn't save as a gif when using the animation feature in edits just shows the first pic and will not animate. It's too bad Samsung will not prefect their ideas as is seen with the IPhone. They may seem clueless but at least when they do something it's done right!

For me it works perfectly.
You gave to do a long press when you take a photo in this mode

You were about to save it as a gif or wallpaper? I'll give it another try

Cant imagine this will be hard for someone to copy and sell on the play store, I don't think any special hardware is required.

Its not an iPhone idea anyway, its basically just HTC Zoe.

But can some one copy it. Lol. I want it too cause using it as an wallpaper would be nice.

Fullscreen Wallpapers

Hey, I know it's in these forums somewhere I just can't find it. How do I get fullscreen wallpapers on my Samsung Captivate, will froyo offer it?
Thanks in advance
What exactly do you mean? Wallpapers can already cover the entire screen...

Well the way the wallpapers are now they stretch over however many home screens we have. Well, I went minimalist having only one screen and it still gives the stretch look. I just want the fullscreen as the iphone has.
Thanks
In Launcher Pro you can disable wallpaper scrolling. I think that would get you what you are looking for.

[REQUEST] Could anyone create this livewallpaper? ( for Umbrella Corp. theme)

Hi there,
i would like to create an Resident Evil Umbrella Corporation style theme for our droids, perfect would be an animated Umbrella Corp Logo live wallpaper.
Could anyone create a live wallpaper from this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzHcZabNGqw
Best would be if the Umbrella Corp letters on the left corner could disappear.
Thanks, would really be great
Download the video using any means.
Convert it to a bunch of images (pngs)
Use a batch rename program like (faststone) to rename em to 1.png,2.png,3.png....
Go in the nexus themes/apps section and look for my "Custom Lwp Script" or in market an app called Custom Lwp if i recall.
They both allow u to create lwp out of sequence of images.
Good Luck
Thanks for the hint
It gaves me 360 images in reduced quality, isn't maximum of images 300?

Hmm yes it is.
Either eliminate some while maintaining a smooth animation or get the app i was talking about from market "Custom Lwp" if i recall.

Reads the pictures from sd card, right? hmmm... not so good for card life, especially when running a desire hd rom which works half from sd, too.
i've notice that on the custom lwp it says that it must be the exact same size as the phone resolution but for live wallpapers like mariolive its scrollable would we be able to make scrollable LWP with this as well?
threads a little bit old but i was wondering if anyone knew how to convert a swf to individual png's frame by frame, searching google got me everything in reverse but nothing like i wanted

Quick version: no such thing.

and does anyone made it?
Actually pretty sure you can convert an swf to an avi and then convert that to individual pngs.
Avi to pngs can be done with gimp and the gap package.

Would drain your battery, but you can use Video Live Wallpaper.
Lets you set your own video as a live wallpaper.
as far as killing your SD Card, would you be able to push the files to your device internal storage?
Perhaps not, im not too familiar with your device.
Sorry if this doesn't work.

Dreamscenes on your hero!

Well I was fed up of not having any decent livewallpapers on my hero and stumbled across a livewallpaper called video live wallpaper.
This livewallpaper lets you play a video loop as a wallpaper, having just installed dreamscenes on my laptop, I put two and two together and thought why not.
After a few hours of trying various conversion formats I have found the settings to run dreamscape mpg's (dreamscapes must be in video format not dream.) as a livewallpaper on your hero, this looks really good and makes the hero look like its running really complex live wallpapers!
Anyway it works really well and is very stable and looks really good, so thought I would share it! If you check out the short video you can see a few running!

If you want to do this you will need:-
video live wallpaper app (free from market)
Any video converter (free on download.com)
dreamscences in a movie format (google them) or www.dreamscenes.org
You then simply need to convert the dreamscene and run it with the live wallpaper app.
Ive found that the optimum settings for conversion that give the best look/performance balance are:-
Profile= customisied AVI movie
Codec= XVID
Frame size = 352x240
Bitrate = 12000
Frame rate = 15
You can tweak these values but be warned I found that if you go too high your poor old hero will start locking up, at these values I get no performance issues and battery consumption is on par with other live wallpapers, anyway enjoy
Oh and just to be extra nice here are the three from the video, ready converted for you to try if you can't be bothered to convert your own
View attachment Bokeh_xvid.zip
View attachment reactor_1680_xvid.zip
View attachment silky-dance_xvid.zip
(Oh yeah btw you need a custom rom to run live wallpaper on your hero, search development if you dont know how!!)
And just so you know, on my phone ADW launcher didnt seem to like this wallpaper so I swapped to launcher pro and it was fine!
If anyone finds any other cool dreamscenes, please feel free to add them to this thread to give people a selection to use.
EDIT...here's a few more I've converted
View attachment Underwater_xvid.zip
View attachment UnderseaHD_xvid.zip
View attachment 506581
View attachment Colormetry_xvid.zip
View attachment blueUV_xvid.zip
this is fantastic. will be trying this tomorrow.
nice ! I will try it soon !
Looks great, thanks!
...and BTW: I love the swing effect when changing home screens, how did you achieve this? What ROM are you using? Is it possible with CM6?

ROM is froyo 2.2.1 special edition final with fly kernel 12a overclocked to 710mhz
Transition effects are in the latest launcherpro release
In theory any ROM should work as long as it has the live wallpaper hack included, not sure how they will perform, maybe some will run better than others, if anybody feels like posting performance results on other ROMs that would be useful
Just found a site with lots of free dreamscenes to play with

No problem my friend, theres also some cool transitions on ADW launcher now as well if you like that sort of thing
And a little update for anyone trying the dreamscene videos, there seems to be so sort of problem with the video live wallpaper app, after a few days use it starts to really affect performance on my phone, am thinking some sort of memory leak (Im no dev so not sure really) stopping app then rebooting sorts out the problem.
Anyway I've emailed dev about it but if anyones clued up and knows what there looking at, then any input would be good
Hey!
I'm the dev of the VLW. I downloaded one of the videos of the original post and I'll be testing it on my device to see it anything weird starts occuring after a while.
Though I have the Desire HD so I might not have any problems. We'll see.

Thanks for having a look at this for us, would be nice to use this as an every day live wallpaper......and yeah I reckon the desire hd will cope slightly better than our little old heros hehe
Very nice work!
When I get home from work I might try this on my Desire HD too
Very nice!!!!!

[Q] Question on Live Wallpaper

I have been downloading some live wallpaper and can't install them. I don't even have a choice for live wallpaper. I have 3 options for Wall Paper Go Wallpaper - Wallpaper Gallery - That is it. I have no live choice of anything. Did something get deleted, can I down load a program I am missing from Live Wallpaper. I have Launcher Pro installed.. Any help would be great. AT&T Captivate
are u on a rom? i know one of the ones i was on didnt have the option.
If you are on one of my roms chances are you will need to get the live wall papers.apk and livewallpaperchooser.apk. The name might be off a bit but its something like that. I remove them as I build for speed and battery life.

I am pretty new to all this. I love this web site but find some of the apps a little confusing. Like when I try to change the ROM and find that things take a little extra time to get done. I really appreciate the info. Gale

[Q] live wallpaper idea

Has anyone thought thought that the end credit animated background of Alice in Wonderland would be an amazing live wallpaper. I'm sure it would be a paid one but it would be worth it....
I think that would be a good one also but it may get taken down from the market the same way Mario live wallpaper did.
Why not capture it, save it to video and use the video live wallpaper discussion here...
i will have to check it out the actual credits will annoy me thou.
Anyone have a video of it? If its not to complicated & i like it i can add it to my list lol.
To above, video LWP's suck....just saying.
