I had microbes out of the box w/ 4.0.4, I remember because it was my go to
minimalist lwp, and it also illuminated the gnex's lag with them, for me. Before
I seem like I'm trying to instigate anything with anyone, I'll clarify, that my
interjection was soley to point out, in my purely stock experience, using ota
every time, that microbes was inexplicably missing, come jb. This thread
actually made me notice that lol

I believe the file in this thread is from the nexus one/nexus s gingerbread
port, I've tried several ICS apk files from stock ota and from AOKP neither
worked. Both force closed after installing

My guess the reason that the Microbes LWP got removed in JB is that it just
makes switching homescreens terribly slow. It's not like Microbes is the only
LWP which has that effect on the GN, I tried several other LWP from the Play
Store and most of them add lag when switching homescreens. Even though my HTC
Desire had no problem with those LWP's (the resolution is lower, but the GN has
better hardware so it should be smooth).

Why Google never adressed this is beyond me..

Had it on an older version of Camcory's CM10, it disappeared in the newest build
(4.1.2) and I wanted it back. Switched to the new build of PACMan and it wasn't
there (also 4.1.2) any more, either. Bloodflame linked me here, installed the
apk, no lib, works perfectly. Simple as could be. No lag, either. Thanks, OP and
link provider!!! :thumbup:

installed it on my nexus 7 they seemed quite lazy,anyone else noticed it?

Yeah, all you needed was to post in your device's sub forum, instead of
necrobumping this thread.

holy thread resurrection batman

anyone still running this wallpaper?
I have been using it for many years on all different android phones.

But I have just got the samsung s23, and after a short time the coloured parts
vanish and just leave the black background and white dots.

I have to reload the wallpaper to get it working again.

anyone know why this is happening please?

Live wallpaper microbes.apk was designed for 720x1280 resolution.
Newer smartphones with FullHD and 4K screens just have much wider area, so some
coefficients of microbes population, their size and size and population of
"food" have to be adjusted for each resolution or, even better, application has
to be remastered to become resolution and HDR aware.
If you point me to sources of 4.x android, there it was introduced to the public
I'll try to recompile and patch this application.

   There's also a lib that goes in /system/lib. I'll attach it to this post.
   Just remove the .txt file extension.

   Hey Everybody!
   I just got my OTA Jellybean update, and I'm overjoyed. It really does feel
   buttery smooth. The only disappointment so far is that I have lost my
   favourite Live Wallpaper.
   Does anyone have the APK of the Microbes Live Wallpaper, or know how I can
   extract it from the ICS image to inject it into Jellybean?
   I'm running the GSM Galaxy Nexus, Jellybean (!!!!), with Stock everything, no
   root.
   
   Any leads or tips or advice will be greatly appreciated!

   I didn't have to add the lib file. I just downloaded the APK to my Galaxy
   Nexus & Nexus 7 and installed them. They work great.
   The microbes look a bit fuzzy on the Nexus7, but its OK.

   Well all I got was "crash fc" etc etc. Then I tried the Lib(easy) and it
   worked flawlessly.
