If you are a d2 owner looking to use these wallpapers, simply root your device and you will be able to remove the stock apk and install one of mine. :)
I have a Droid 2 with Root but I'm not sure how to remove the stock D2EYE I've looked for it in files and even browsed a bit with the terminal emulator but no luck. I have the Droid X installed alongside the Droid 2 I think it has a different system name so they don't overwrite each other.

You are looking for d2.apk in system/app.

thanks very much!!!

it took me about twenty minutes to remember all of the commands and then figure out that mv wasn't working so I just
# rm D2.apk
and then
# cp D2EyeModCyanogen /system/app/D2.apk
and it finally worked!!!!

p.s. typing commands with upper cases and numbers is difficult to do!

Ok a little new to this i have my rooted and was just wondering what is the exact name of the stock apk to remove so i can install the cyan live wallpaper please?

Edit- Ok went to system app and deleted D2.apk and put it on my sd card just in case. Then went and tried to install the cyanD2eye and it still says application not installed. What am i doing wrong? I have a D2 rooted with clockwork recovery. I mean c'mon if I can do the crap load of ADB commands it took to root this thing why is a simple apk so hard to install?

its not hard:

[adb]
adb push c:\path\to\your.apk /system/app/D2.apk

[shell with file on sdcard]
cp /mnt/sdcard/your.apk /system/app/D2.apk


reboot device

menu -> wallpapers -> live wallpapers -> select it


you MUST make sure your filesystem is writable before installing!

as root:

mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system

I installed the D2.apk and D2EYEModStockXWallpaperDXEYE.apk. I would like to uninstall the D2EYEModStockXWallpaperDXEYE.apk. When I look for the file in system/app, the file is not there. As a matter of fact, neither is D2.apk. However, both live wallpapers work. Any ideas for removal?

Background info: Droid X w/2.1 update 1, installed ES File Explorer for access to system files, non-rooted (so maybe I can't do this?).

Thanks in advance for any info.

I am assuming this was done in terminal emulator?

Thank you, is this in the exact order that you type it in adb? Cause it looks like there is something you wrote at the end that needs to be done first? I am somewhat familiar with ADB but not that much please write as if you were me kinda ADB dummy please

Edit- Nevermind got it!!! Thank you!!!!!

Im going to have to rename the activity. Ill update this page when its done.
Hi, I have been following this thread, and as I'd prefer not to have to ROOT my Droid 2 and delete the red eye just to have the blue eye, I'm hoping you'll work on this and make them different enough that they can be installed concurrently. Thank you in advance from every Droid 2 user :-D

I have a rooted droid 2, I have renamed the original droid 2 eye live wallpaper to a bak file instead of a apk so It doesnt show anymore. I have downloaded the D2 Eye Cyanogen wallpaper and still am having a problem. It is saying application not installed.

Anyone one a droid 2 actually do this???
