We have been working in an experimental app and we whould like to share with this community.
The application is a Live Wallpaper where you can chose some of your installed app icons to be shown in the live wallpaper, hanging arround with physics. The icons will behave as launcher for their respective apps.
In the configuration you can limit the apps movement to only one of your desktops, the center screen.
Any feedback will be apreciated, we will be working on this app adding new features and solving issues if needed.
You can find it on android market, its free and the name is Gravity Home
Really fun just installed it. Great work, thanks for sharing!
================= [edit] =================
Feature request:
I had the standard setting icons for bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi and Auto-sync previously. it would be nice if these also were available in the list of apps.
Bug:
The people icon doesn't open my address book when I press on it.
I've used it on the following phone:
Device: HTC Desire Z
Version: 2.2.1 stock

Hi,
The gps/wifi/data widgets and maybe more are in our future plans
About the problem launching the address book, it has an easy solution, we had already fixed the camera , will be the same, probably on next update this week it will be solved
Thanks for the bug report and the feature request!
Do you like to share ALL your private files/data to strangers?
Like your actual Contacts, SMS, MMS, Emails, Photos, Videos, GPS Position, Notes, Passwords...
Everything of these can be easy downloaded in the backround with normal looking apps from your normal unsecured android smartphone!
I just installed this to try it out and went straight to the settings to see if I could add some apps. I waited for the list to load then something strange happened. The screen froze with a few black lines across it and started getting brighter and brighter like the system was increasing the brightness above the limits or something. Sounds strange I know. I quickly got the cover off and removed the battery, phone is fine now but just before I removed the battery I noticed the usually pitch black background was now light grey! I've now uninstalled and I'm on Darky's ROM 9.5 with the Darky Core 1.4 Kernel. Modem is JVE.

I love it but i wish it worked properly on the EVO 3D, when you go to add apps it just constantly says loading and never loads any of the apps to show on the screen.

Very original and innovative concept. I absolutely love it. The icons move around clean and doesnt appear to bog the phone down to much.
Issue: on vibrant rom kb5 (Stock + rooted myself).
I have 4 screens (which highest is always the real "home" screen). Icons wont show up at all if I dont limit to 1 screen in the options.
If I limit to 1 screen, it shows up on screen 3 instead of screen 4.
