I encountered a strange glitch when I was using the NewPipe app and exiting from full screen mode. When holding the phone horizontally and tapping the home button that appears while in full screen watching a video, the wallpaper will glitch and be displayed horizontally on the vertical home screen instead. I could only fix it by reselecting the image I use for the day or night background. (Whichever one I'm using at the time)

I did some more testing by enabling the "allow home screen rotation" option in system settings and found that the set image does not display properly.

Usually when using a normal home screen wallpaper and enabling the previously-mentioned setting and rotating the phone horizontally while on the home screen, the phone will take a horizontal cutout of the vertical orientation of the home screen picture being used and display that.

However, when rotating the phone while using this wallpaper changer, it rotates the wallpaper you chose and displays it horizontally instead. It also takes a second to load and will display incorrectly if you rotate the phone before it finishes loading.

Usually my wallpapers are wider than the phone screen. I only use a single home panel (nothing to swipe to left or right) so I scroll the wide image until I have a crop that I want (for the static wallpaper).

It seems that DarkModeLiveWallpaper always centers a given image. Is that the case or can I left/right scroll the imported image somehow?

Hello, thanks for your app.
I don't know if you know, but the scrolling sliders in dark mode stay white like in light theme.

Light theme:

Dark theme:

I'm sorry if I wasted your time.

I really like the app but I would like to set a time when the wallpaper should change and not use systems dark/light theme to change wallpaper.
I would like use dark mode all the time.
Thank you in advance!

Sometimes the lock screen wallpaper stays visible after unlocking the device. Only when scrolling the home page is the unlock detected by onOffsetsChanged

The cause is that the ACTION_USER_PRESENT broadcast is not received. Presumably because the device has already been unlocked when the broadcast receiver was registered.

Currently the wallpaper can only be imported as the "day" home-screen picture. It should be possible to import as "night" and for the lock-screen as well

Hi.
I noticed a minor bug in the app's operation

I'll try to be as specific as possible even if the bug is minor.

Device:
Xiaomi Redmi note 10 pro,
Android 11, Miui 12.5.3.0 RKFMIXM.

Launcher:
Nova launcher prime. 7.0.34

Imported wallpaper immediately after first launch.

Problem:
I noticed the wallpapers were slightly off center, leaning towards the right side of the screen

This broke pretty much the entire app afterwards. No matter what you do. Remove the imported wallpaper and select a new one from the gallery, it was still off centered.
To confirm that this is a bug, I repeated everything I did during setup:

• Imported current wallpaper at the initial prompt.
• Turned off "use day time image" in night time settings.
• Selected a new dark mode wallpaper from gallery.
• Turned on zoom effect (the real culprit here after investigation)
• Applied as home screen wallpaper.

After successfully being applied, the wallpaper was shifted slightly to the right. And the zoom effect didn't work. I am positive either nova launcher or Miui has something to do with this. But I disabled nova 7's wallpaper zoom effects to make sure it didn't conflict with dark mode live wallpaper. And it still happened.

I fixed it by clearing the app data and restarting the initial setup process. This time, selecting a wallpaper from the gallery instead and disabling zoom effect.
The wallpapers look and change fine now.

Conclusion:
The zoom effect feature is bugged on my device.
And possibly could be on other phones as well.

Thanks and I hope I didn't write too much 🙂
This is actually my first issue on GitHub. Heck, the first comment I've ever typed on GitHub. So I have no idea how things work here.

Hope you had a splendid day.

Describe the bug

Dear developer!
In the process of using, I found a bug in layout / display. As shown in the figure below, on the main page, the last card seems to be blocked by its border, and this card is not scrollable horizontally so it appears that I could not see the blocked elements fully. This may be an adaptation problem. I suspect it is because display and font size are set to large (mainly due to display size).
Because of some problems with my eyesight, I often use the largest font and display.

App version is 1.1.2, my mobile phone is Google Pixel 2, and the screen resolution setting is 1920* 1080. And my font size and display size are the largest ! ! ! Also, my Android system version is 10.0.
The above is a description of the problem. The overall experience of the software is good. You can see that the design is very attentive. Thank you very much for the efforts of the developers all the time. I hope to receive a reply. Thank you so much!!

Expected behavior

I hope that I can see all of the elements fully on the main page, and in this circumstance, the last card in it seems to be blocked.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. use the largest font and display in the display setting
2. open this app for the first time and scroll all the way down to the bottom,
3. this error could be seen

Screenshot

(The blocked part is marked in red)

Environment

1. Version of darkmodewallpaper: 1.1.2
2. Device : Google Pixel 2,
3. OS version : Android 10.0

Hello, thank you for the app
It's great that someone finally came to that idea

Please, if it will be possible, in the future add separate slideshow support for light and for dark themes
(As example, user chooses one folder that contains images for light theme and the other folder with images for dark theme)

Good luck to you

the wallpaper animation (zoom in) while sliding down the slide-down menu is choppy and irritating.
A option for disabling it would be nice.
My setup: Lg V20 Lineage Os 18 de-googled

The apk has 8 mb. It's huge for a wallpaper application imho.
Maybe we can turn on minifyEnabled for release.

This is a redundant check in debug build. As it is already in debug sourceSet

A short flicker happens after going from lockscreen to homescreen. It is only noticeable if the transition animation is activated and the wallpapers have certain colors.
After the animation ended, the app calculates the colors of the homescreen wallpaper (#28) and notifies Android about the new colors. Android reacts to the new colors with a flicker of the whole UI.

I tried to install using the apk from both f-droid and GitHub but the Android package manager seems to not be able to install it.
I'm using Android 9, Samsung Galaxy J7

When swiping right/left on my launcher the background screen follows, but:

• not nearly as smooth as with a native background image
• when I swipe fast, it seems to start only when my swipe actually already finsied, so it "lags behind".almost always this feels like no animation at all.
• even when I swipe slowly it really lags behind up to one second or so

This is blocking me from using it.

system

Device: Pixel 4 (flame).
OS: Android 12, CalyxOS 3.4.0.
source: F-Droid.
version: v 1.2.6
Build-ID: SP2A.220405.004.22304000

I tried to use the app for changing my Samsung DeX wallpaper, but the changes don't take effect.
On standard phone home screen, everything works.

Device: Samsung Galaxy S20 FE SM-G780G

OS: Android 12

App version: 1.6.1

Expected Behavior: Being able to change the wallpaper in Samsung DeX.

Could you please add the option to blur the wallpaper like Muzei?
Some of the wallpapers I have are well suited if blurred.

When returning from "micro screen" (one-hand screen/mini-view) to normal screen size, the wallpaper does not immediately scale up to normal screen size.
A scroll is needed to initiate a redraw for the correct size

When using this app, Material You freezes on trying to extract wallpaper colors. Setting a fixed theme color does work.

I also saw this happening with other live wallpapers e.g. Material Island. Is this an Android 12 Beta 3.1 bug or is Android expecting any data via API that is not delivered? Google's own live wallpapers manage to pass the correct wallpaper colors to Material You.

It would be nice to be able to save the current settings+wallpapers into a profile, and quickly apply profiles.

If loading profiles would be possible through intents, they could then be controlled by extrnal apps (e.g. based on location)

Hey, Thanks for the app..its brilliant.
Just a minor hiccup. I'm using note 9 from Samsung and i have a very white wallpaper for the day and a dark grey one for the night
The app works perfectly to change the wallpaper, but the lockscreen text doesn't change from white to black duing day in order to be readable.
I tried setting the wallpaper individually without the app and it changes colour. When i go to the lockscreen settings on the phone, with the app enabled, the wallpaper doesn't show up. Is the app putting the wallpaper in a different directory.? I don't know okay.. im not a developer..but this is an annoying issue...would be glad if you look into.

Hello :)

As it is in the current F-Droid "1.4.11 (43)" release, you can load a GIF image as a wallpaper, but sadly it doesn't animate. Is it easy to implement? If it's viable I would like to request it 🙂

I'm getting this crash running the debug version on startup on my Samsung Galaxy S10+ Android 12

I don't think it's something we can fix.

When i go to ultra battery saver and then exits that mode, wallpaper is gone. I need to open the app and re apply the wallpaper.

It's possible to fix that adding an "background auto start" feature? Or it's a MiUI issue? Is there a workaround available?

My phone is a Redmi Note 11 with HyperOS.

• Hope that all imported pictures will not be deleted automatically, and a list will be generated for quick replacement
• Quick exchange of pictures between the lock screen and the home screen
• Material Design

Thanks

There seems to be a perfect solution in the new version, maybe I will wait better than ask questions

Cannot import wallpaper on Android 13 (Tiramisu) Beta

The permission Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE is required to import the wallpaper with WallpaperManager.getDrawable().
On Android 13 with targetSdkVersion set to 33 this permission cannot be requested anymore (if it was requested in an earlier version it does persist though).
Instead of the permission dialog, the user sees nothing and the permission request is automatically denied.
So the getDrawable() call would fail with java.lang.SecurityException: Permission android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE denied for package

Upstream report:
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/237124750

I've started using this up this week and noticed that the average memory use over 3 hours, as well as immediate usage by the service, is 350MB. I think this is rather excessive.

I killed and restarted the app, and it went to ~130MB, which is still high imo. But it also goes up by 15-25MB every time the dark/light mode is switched.

Try:

1. Set the mode of wallpaper changing to "Follow system"
2. Kill the app and restart it
3. Enable the phone's Android developer options
4. View the Running services
5. Observe the value of DarkModeLiveWallpaper
6. Switch between dark and light mode in Android (I use a quick settings tile)

The value of memory usage goes up and stays.

Also, I'm not using any effects (zoom, scroll, color overlay), and lock screen settings are not separate from wallpaper settings.

Anyway, thanks for the app. Cool little thing otherwise.

My phone: Motorola G32 w. CalyxOS 5.7.2 (Android 14)

This is a totally minor issue:

If I enter theme settings on Android 12, the preview of the dark mode live wallpaper shows the correct wallpaper but not fullscreen in the previed screens. Also, the wallpaper is shown twice per screen:

Unknown reason

It is captured after unlocking and entering the home screen, the home screen wallpaper has not changed, and the lock screen wallpaper is reset after the screen is turned off and can be automatic restored

It would be nice to have the app set a certain wallpaper at 7:00, have it change to another at 8:00, then change at 5:00, and change again at 10:00. Could a feature that allows multiple wallpapers to be queued up and applied at certain times be considered?

The link to the GitHub repo in the copyright area is not correct and leads to a 404 page.

The wallpaper shown in recents screen is not the wallpaper being picked, instead its a default icon.
I am on Android 14 but this was present in 13 as well. I have tested applying other live wallpapers and they seem to work fine.

Thanks.

There ia no statement in the readme about the or-later but a badge says that the license is GPL-3.0-or-later. Is that intented? If then, could you please add the Standard License Header in the readme? Thanks!

It seems that blurring the night lock screen does not work. The day lockscreen can be blurred without problem. The issue is also visible in the preview.

Thanks for the awesome app.

When I try to set a separate wallpaper for dark mode, a wallpaper picked with Google Photos is saved according to the toast message but neither set nor shown in preview.

unknown reason

Occurs within 24 hours after each installation/restart system

If I set a wallpaper with this app, Android detects a different brightness than if I had set it statically.

See attached screenshots below.

Android opts for dark statusbar icons (and dark Pixel Launcher "at a glance" widget) when setting the wallpaper statically. When using your app, Android opts for light statusbar icons (and light Pixel Launcher "at a glance" widget) which does not look as nics as the static version.

static wallpaper

Only the home screen wallpaper is shown in the "Wallpaper & Style" section in Android settings.
Android only uses one WallpaperEngine to generate one image for both previews. Therefore it is currently impossible to show both home and lockscreen wallpaper correctly.
If this were to change in the future, the detection of home or lock screen would need to be done here together with fixedConfig variable:

Hi, I'm not know it issue or feature, but i'm not found this menu's text in files on Crowdin.
Thanks in advance for the explanation this moment.

Show and set from hex in color chooser dialog

I have two different wallpapers for dark mode and light mode. If I set them with dark mode live wallpaper app and make the app my active live wallpaper, System-UI crashes upon mode change while the display is active. After the crash, only the wallpaper is shown whille all icons, status bar, widgets and gesture bar are gone. Shutting off the display via power key and switching it back on brings back the System-UI in the new mode.

Per https://forum.fairphone.com/t/93213?u=rokejulianlockhart,

8bitPit/Niagara-Issues#2147 (comment) and
8bitPit/Niagara-Issues#2193 (comment)

demonstrate that the cause of this issue is unknown, but is definitely experienced by users of Dark Mode Live Wallpaper (myself). The developers appear confident that it must be caused by DMLW or Android.

Please investigate.

When setting a wide image it is always centered, but sometimes the point of interest in it is not at the center.
I'd like to suggest the ability to move the image around before setting it - similar to how the stock android wallpaper setter has panning, etc.

Android 9 has support for system dark mode (even though the API is a bit different maybe, I'm not sure), do you think it would be possible to add support for it too?

(It should be possible because I've seen other app do that, but I'd prefer to use yours because it's without ads, unlike the other.)
