[Fixed] setting static image as wallpaper

Postby evilbobbins » February 7th, 2011, 3:14 am

Hi Guys, after much playing around and wiping my scroll I have finaly fixed the wallpaper problem I have with firmware 1.02

It seems they have left out the standard gallery app in 1.02 and the gallery3D that it has as a replacement cannot set images as it needs the gallery.apk to do the set as because as soon as you hit set as it looks for the gallery.apk.

So after installing the Android SDK pulling out the gallery.apk from a stock 2.1 and installing it i was able to set images as my back ground again :D

If anyone has the same problem I can write up a "how to" and post it up

remember if try to find the APK file on google etc to get the stock 2.1 gallery not the 3D one ;)

I tried installing the app - would'nt let me - so I copied the apk to /system/app and ran the app from there using astro file manager - this worked for me and I can now install static images as wallpaper from my SD card as before.

Either that or a adb push would do the trick :D
was a really silly thing to miss from OS :?

I found Gallery.app (big G) and pushed it to /system/app/ but nothing happened. I tried installing it through astro but it said "application not installed". That how to would be good.
