[Q] getting jellybean live wallpapers

[lchiu7]

This is a pretty trivial request given what some people are asking but I don't like the choices of live wallpapers in Kitkat and want to install the water live wallpaper that's been around since the Nexus One.

It's there a way to do that without rooting the phone?

Thanks

I would do that if I knew where the APK was on say my Galaxy Nexus

its in /system/app/ or you can probably google it and find a download too.

Found them and tried to load an apk called livewallpaper.apk. It just fails. On the N5 there is a livewallpaperpicker.apk which there is on the GN so I am not sure if I need that one instead?

The blue PhaseBeam is fine, unfortunately the water and nexus run like ass on the n5. Try for yourself.



good day.

Thanks. I installed the phasebeam OK but the other apkn won't install. No error, just did not install.

Plus I can't find water or nexus apk anywhere. I wonder if they are part of the livewallpaper.apk which I can't install?

That's odd, that LiveWallpapers.apk is what has both nexus and water. I'm running a stock deodexed rom and it installed fine. I do have app verification turned off.

I am running pure stock 4.2.2. And I turned off app verification. All I get is the X symbol and App not installed.
