Modify Micromax Flower Live Wallpaper with your own choice wallpaper and audio- Easy Guide
Guys, when we updated the micromax a116 the canvas hd to 4.2.1 you should have seen samsung s3 like water ripple wallpaper with sound. Now at first time itself i had a thought like why wouldnt i change that sunflower wall with my little daughter's and have ripples on her... yaa it was easy:laugh:....
Now we have new forum for this lovely device after all that cries n shouts. so i thought of sharing this simple guide with you all.....
Requirements:-
- Rooted device Mmx a116 (should work on 4.1.2 as well- not tested report here if worked)
-Wall paper of your choice with 800 x 1280 size preferred with NAME bg6.jpg [Very Important]jpg is image extn
- ogg audio file of water ripples (if modifying sound)
-winrar/7zip
Steps:-
1)First of all back up your phone preferrably with a full backup using CWM
2)- Pull your Micromax_Flower.apk from /system/apps/ to PC (anyway you like)
- Keep original apk somewhere in phone in case something goes wrong
3)Open the apk with Winrar/7zip
4)Browse into res/drawable/ folder in Winrar/7zip
5)Open folder where your wallpaper[make sure you named wall to bg6] is and keeping winrar window and wallpaper folder side by side Drag and Drop your Wallpaper into res/drawable/ folder, click ok and close winrar.
6) Push back modded APK to /system/apps/ using some file manager like (EZ/Astro) and set permission rw-r-r or by double clicking apk from phone's sdcard ( first set install unknown resources enabled in settings->security)
7) If you have different water ripple audio (ogg format) you can drag n drop it to raw folder in res/raw/. There are 2 audio files...
This is easy to do as no decompile/recompile and sign apk needed and I explained as simple as possible so that every level of users can do it....
Disclaimer : Do it at your own risk and i cannot be resposnsilbe for any bricks/damage although it wont go wrong if you follow the steps...

thanks for the tutorial. but, how to disable that wallpaper altogether? will simply choosing another wallpaper and deleting the flower apk do?
it's taking up 32 MB of memory and i don't want it running on my device. i'm sure not everyone likes it, too. thanks.

Hi guys. This is a quick guide for those of you who want to have a 6x6 Home grid on the newest Lollipop update ( .270 ). There are two ways to make the icons smaller ( like it was on Kitkat ). First one is by changing the "ro.sf.lcd_density" value in the build.prop. The second is by using the slightly older Lollipop ( .242) launcher. I'm going to show you the second way.
Requirements:
1. Root access - this is essential. ( You can follow this guide to gain root : http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z-ultra/general/guide-rooting-xperia-z-ultra-lollipop-t3112214 )
2. ES Explorer- or some other Root Explorer.
3. Home-release.apk - from .242 Lollipop. ( Download from below )
Steps:
1. Download and copy the home-release.apk to your SD card.
2. Open ES Explorer and go to /system/app/home-release and Replace the existing home-release.apk with the one I've provided.
3. Change permissions to -rw-r--r--
4. Restart phone.
That's it ! You now have the good old small icons on your Lollipop.
Hello Everyone,
Today i am going to show you how to change that boring boot animation by this cool one. So lets begin:
STEPS :
For Cyanogenmod users -
1) Download the file from below.
2) Install as normal apk.
3) Go to Settings>Themes>Boot animations.
4) Browse the boot animation and apply.
5) Done, Show this awesome boot animation to your friends.
For normal users - (Root needed)
1) Download the file from below.
2) Download any root explorer of your choice.( I prefer Es file explorer)
3) Navigate to the downloaded apk and long press it.
4) Under the 3 dot menu select extract to and extract the apk.
5) Now you will find the bootanimatio.zip file in assets folder.
6) Now go to the root folder and navigate through system>media. Once there locate your current bootanimation.zip file
7) Long-press your current bootanimation.zip file, and click copy, as we'll want to have a backup just in case. Paste it wherever convenient for you OR simply change the extension from .zip to .bak
8) Once your new bootanimation.zip has been selected for moving, navigate back to system > media and paste it there. You'll have to overwrite your current animation zip, but that's fine since you have a backup in case something goes wrong. Go for it.
9) For many of you, the previous step will be the last step. But, if for any reason you're still stuck with you old animation, you can try aligning the permissions of your newly-copied bootanimation.zip file with the permissions in the system/media folder. In our case, those were rw-r-r. Just long-press your new bootanimation.zip file and click Permissions and change them until they fit. The logic behind these abbreviations goes like this: Owner - Group - Other. Read for 'r', Write for 'w', and Execute for 'x'. Save the changes and restart...
10) Done, Show this awesome boot animation to your friends.

Note :
You are choosing to make these modifications, and dont point the finger at me for messing up your device.

No need to post thanks, just got the thanks button!
Don not have any pictures?
a sample video or picture would be great
Tried on RR5.6.4 on Xiaomi Redmi 1s. During the colored part, top and bottom have little black part, which looks kind of annoying. And I don't know whether its just on my phone, but in the end it looked like the animations broke. Rest of the parts are very good and really cool. Great work
awesome bro
i will try soon ,
thanks
I made a small preview od this animation, it is not full and GIF has very low resolution

Hello folks, this tutorial will guide you how to theme your launcher icons without the themes (which you may not like most) from theme store. Before the tutorial, please be reminded to back up your important data, I am not responsible for loss of data.
Prerequisite:
1. Rooted
2. 7-zip
3. Creativity
First of all, your phone needs to be rooted. For the tutorial of rooting your phone, please refer to other posts.
The icons of the launcher are stored in /root/system/customizecenter/theme, there is a file named "icons", you can copy the file and put it in your PC using any root explorer (personally I use Solid Explorer).
In your PC, right click on the file 7-Zip -> Open archive. Inside the file you will find a lot of popular apps in China, you may delete them if you want. Now have your icons ready, in general cases icons larger than 128 x 128 pixels will be good. Take Facebook Messenger as an example, go to play.google.com to look for the package name. Rename your icon with "package-name.png".
After than insert the new icon into the archive (note that not to extract the archive) and put the file back to the phone. Do a reboot and now you are able to see the new icon of Facebook Messenger :laugh:
I created a album in Google Photo, please feel free to share your favorite icons:
