View 7 Replies View RelatedI am wondering how to set a background in Live Wallpaper for Android. It seems the only options I have are to create it using a canvas which I don't want. I want to be able to set up a time lapse of a tree that goes through the seasons. I'm assuming I'll be able to set the coordinates for the leaves and then just have different times to fall, but is it possible to have them expand or even change colors?

Are 9-patch PNG files supported for the wallpaper? Should I be using these instead?
I found a method in API level 5 that gives you the minimum size of the wallpaper, but I would like to support previous versions of Android as well.
When this is installed on a 2.1 phone, that has live wallpaper, the live wallpaper is not returned by getWallpaper() , because it just returns a Drawable, and live wallpaper probably is another thing. So the question is, is it possible to show a live wallpaper on the background of a 1.6 application? How?

I'm writing a live wallpaper that creates an effect over a background. I want the user to be able to choose the background from any of the system wallpapers and camera photos. What I would like is for the user to be able to press a button in the Settings menu, have the list of options show up just like setting the wallpaper from the home screen, minus the Live Wallpapers options. Once the user navigates the choices and picks an actually image I would load it to my canvas. How do I do this?
I can't find an API anywhere for getting a list of wallpapers.
I've been able to come up with a list of wallpaper providers using Intents. I then get a list of live wallpaper providers also using Intents and remove those from my first list. The gives me a list of wallpaper providers that are not live.
Now what? Are there other ways to do this that I'm missing?

I am working in a Gps app. the Gps is working fine, but i don't know when i am doing other operations in device the Gps is keep tracking or not.
so, how to run the specified Gps class in background,so that what ever i do with my device or nothing the Gps should always keep running(keep tracking).
I have some requirement as given below:
I have to write an email app that should send a mail to the particular mail id.
I have written a code like this...
It is working fine, I mean sending the mail to the receiver.
But it is launching another Email app (android default app I guess). But I don't want it to be launched, I want directly send the mail to recipient.
My mail goal is that, the user should not know that the mail is sending. The default Email app (android's) should not be visible to the user. The mail sent process should be done in background.
Is there a way to 'preload' a user interfaces but to not display it until I am ready?
I have a service which has a receiver to listen for action_screen_on to occur. When that occurs, I would like to load an activity. However, as it is now, it takes about 1 second to load. I would like to preload the layout in advance so that when the screen is turned on the layout loads as soon as possible.
