Wallpaper changer

Change wallpaper programmatically

If you do not know script, am and intent, you may stop here to avoid wasting time, this application is not for you. You can find other alternatives with a good UI to help you.

I do not want to execute a background task just for changing wallpapers. So I write this small tool, which does the job and quit. I.e. It can change a background image by certain intent.

I am using this with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.gemini.init, and changing wallpaper when screen is off. Ex.

https://github.com/Hzj-jie/android-init/blob/master/sample/change-wallpaper.sh

This application accepts three kinds of intents,

1. change wallpaper

Uri: wallpaper-changer://org.gemini.wallpaper-changer.change/?folder={folder}&file={file}

Activity: org.gemini.wallpaper_changer/.WallpaperChangerActivity

Both folder and file are optional, and you can provide several folders and files. Application will parse all parameters, list all files, and randomly select one from them.

2. set offsets

Uri: wallpaper-changer://org.gemini.wallpaper-changer.offsets/?x={x}&y={y}

Activity: org.gemini.wallpaper_changer/.WallpaperOffsetsActivity

Changes offset of wallpaper.

3. clear wallpaper

Uri: wallpaper-changer://org.gemini.wallpaper-changer.clear/?folder={folder}&file={file}

Activity: org.gemini.wallpaper_changer/.ClearWallpaperActivity
