Installation problems

Open tadelv opened this issue 11 years ago • 9 comments

Hi,

I am having some issues with installing the Test animated wallpaper. I have signed the bundle, copied it to /System/Library/ProceduralWallpapers, but now when I go to settings.app, there is no content for APPLE WALLPAPER section. Is the animated wallpaper section limited to 1 item, could you please elaborate on that? You can also contact me via email if you have the time :)

Thanks and happy holidays!

I have that same problem. Signed/not signed bundle, both cases are not working. Even changing the name its not working. No content for APPLE WALLPAPER.

Perhaps there is a way to force it's use through some OS settings API, such as defaults or perhaps modifying a plist file?

There seems to have been some changes made to how they're loaded since the 7.0 beta period. Still working on a fix

I also did some research/tests... first of all: be sure to include arm64 in your architecture settings when trying to use this on an iphone5s. Strange thing is: After I added arm64 and copied the bundle, even the factory wallpapers disappear in preferences, but the errors on the console are gone.

Update: I can now select my custom wallpaper... it has no thumbnail, but you can select it in the "dynamic" section of wallpaper settings (click in empty area next to apples last entry). The preview shows correctly but if you set it as wallpaper (either lock screen, homescreen or both) this has no effect and the previously selected wallpaper is shown.

I dug around and managed to create a wallpaper that installs and runs nicely on my device. I have uploaded source and some documentation here: https://github.com/akiland/ProceduralWallpaper

Yo! @akiland: after applying your code for the thumbnail(s) it works perfect... thanks! (don't forget to reboot you phone... otherwise you will be able to select the wallpaper but not set it)

@maxx2097 you really only need to respring to reload the wallpaper bundles. Try running killall SpringBoard

Hi @akiland, just now I wanted to try your MagicWallpaper and I still have the same issue as I had with previous attempts. The apple wallpaper section is empty and I can't click on it. Could it be because I'm using the [REDACTED] 7.1 beta, has anyone tried with this version?

EDIT: Tried just now on 7.0.4, works as advertised! So it seems Apple have broken something in the future versions... :-1:
