Well, I can only speak for myself then. It's not taking any drain on my iPhone and I've had it active since yesterday. Except for being on the charger on my nightstand last night my phone has been seeing moderate to heavy use today (since about 10am) and I'm only down to about 40%.

Yea like I said I had unstable LTE that I did not know about and my phone was switching from LTE to 4g to Edge over about an hour and half and just eat right through my battery. I don't think LivePapers have anything much to do with the battery, but I am not sure.

Has anyone notice much battery drain with LivePapers? I had crappy LTE service today so it eat through the battery so I can't tell how much drain LivePapers had on the battery. I just wanted to know if any notice if it did have much of an affect.

How did you make your own?

If you go to /Library you will see the Livepapers folder. Go to Plugins/Bubbles-rsrc/img folder. To modify just wallpaper, replace the background.hd.png (iPhone 5). To change the "bubbles" go into the particles.hd.png folder and change the map.png. That file is a series of circles that create the bubbles. As you can see i just changed that to the Flyers logo.

Oh cool thanks man
 
my battery use seems about the same as always (a relief, of course). now off to see what i can create with the info above (about modding the images)...
 
I finally got to test out the nexus one. Not really my cup of tea, would have been a shame if I paid for it. Deleted it a few minutes later.

only tweaks I have are

springtomize
lockinfo
bitesms

It's lockinfo causing the conflict.

Though is works fine on the lock screen with lockinfo activated :confused:

The newest version of livepapers doesn't fix the issue yet.
 
FWIW, lockscreen and homescreen animations work fine on my 4S with 6.1.2. No lockups and no noticeable lag. But it probably helps that I'm also running Accelerate in the background.

The biggest difference between this app and vWallpaper is that iFunBox and iTunes both see my phone. With vWallpaper, neither program recognizes that my phone is connected. If I uninstall vWallpaper, then iFunBox and iTunes correctly identify the phone.

How could you try it out and uninstall it without paying for it? I had to pay for the Nexus LP. But I do like the eyecandy!

If you get intelliscreen x it it a whole notification tweak. It cost $9.99 though. I would have to say it is worth it.

Thx, I own ISX but that's not what I'm looking for. I'm just looking for the weather or temperature on the Lockscreen while using LivePapers.
 
i notice that, after opening then closing an app...livepapers stops moving for several seconds, then starts up again. in those 4-5 seconds, i cannot do anything.

anyone else?


EDIT: uninstalling, then re-installing may have fixed this for me...

Problem with this tweak is that you have to be a developer to compile a tweak which animates the images. With vwallpaper which IMO is way out of days you only had to make a video which can be done with no coding needed.
