[How-to] Custom Dot View Live wallpapers

I successfully was able to replace one of the dot view live wallpapers with a custom one I through together.



I'm not sure how to actually add another live wallpaper, just replace one.



Some people asked how I do it, so I'm going to show you.



First, find a gif image you want and convert them to separate images. There is online converters for that or photoshop. (has to be 29 images)



1.) grab the dot view apk from the phone root directory (if your rooted) or online somewhere.



2.) open the apk as a zip file and navigate to assets. There you will see live wallpapers 1-7.



3.) Choose one of them you don't mind replacing and extract the folder to your desktop



4.) You will see in the folder 3 sets of 29 images (home, incommingcall and notification)

Take all the first 29 images (home) out and import them to photoshop or something similar.



5.) Erase whatever is on the images already or just paint over it with a solid color.



6.) Grab your first gif image and place on top of the first (now erased or painted over) live wallpaper image and resize/move according to your taste.



7.) save it by overwriting the image (ex: home_01.png)

incommingcall and notification pngs are an exact replica of the home pngs. So when you replace ex: home_01.png, also use the same image to replace incommingcall_01.png and notification_01.png



8.) repeat steps 6-7 with all 29 gif images you have.



9.) after you are all done with that, drag the live wallpaper folder with the modified images back into the zip file (.apk)

I would suggest deleting the folder inside the zip your are trying to replace first incase overwriting it screws things up with it (which I don't think it should).

You can (if you want) find the wallpaper icon that goes with the live wallpaper you are trying to replace and mod that image with an icon of your live wallpaper if you'd like.



10.) Put apk in your phone storage and download zipsigner from the play store. Choose the path where your apk is and the path where you want the signed apk to be. Leave the key/mode to stock (auto-testkey)



11.) after it has signed the apk. You can install it via a file browser or something and you can go to the live wallpapers in dot view, click on the one you replaced and it should work.



Any questions, feel free to ask.
