finally figured it out.. Cause mine was doing the same thing, so I had to come back to atleast tell you how because it was ticking me off soooo bad, I figured you were just as angry.

You have to remove Vwallpaper, then remove skrew common (both from cydia) this will get your phone back to normal until the new version comes out!


Hope this helps! Let me know.

In the case where eg. Wallpaper.mp4.mp4 you only need to space one eg. Wallpaper.mp4 .mp4

Just a quick update...it is working now

I have a question.... I opened up my cydia and it had 2 upgrades: one for Winterboard, and one for Mobile Sub something whatever it was that you put on the link. so my question is.... Does that mean I can install vWallpaper now and it'll work? I only want it for video ringtones. i'm only asking cuz i bought the aimersoft software and i don't want it to go to waste! Thanks for any answers you have

[cigahs]

where exactly do I put these files in my iphone using SSH? I see tmp but on the site it says cd/tmp and I can not find that.

Can you please tell me where each file should go?

The winterboard method is SOOOO much better than vWallpaper b/c if you apply a theme in winterboard that happens to have a wallpaper in it then the video automatically doesn't work. This gives you the ability to put the video theme on top and a complete theme or whatever below. Thanks!!

I have read that the winterboard method does not start at the same point, and that it is not as smooth. I have not tried it though, so I can't confirm this. I would like to see vWallpaper working on 3.0 though.

I have a couple of video wallpapers working in Winterboard (3GS) and they all look great but then stop working after a few minutes. They just freeze. I didn't use the SSH method, I installed them through Cydia in the Themes (Videos) area.

Anyway, it's annoying that these just stop working. I'm assuming vwallpaper doesn't have this issue so it would be nice to see it updated to work with 3.0.

Finally got this vwallpaper to work properly on 3.0

The key is SBSettings add vwallpaper to the dock and open it from there...your icons wont disappear like it happened to me multiple times.

Add the 2 files to the tmp folder...execute the "dpkg -i SkrewCommon155.deb vWallpaper110.deb"

Then open SBSettings go to the dock open vwallpaper and get your vid going!!!

Now the only issue is that very few work since we need the vids TO BE 320x240, which before 3.0 could be anysize and it would autofit. Now they can not even be the same ratio- ex:640X960. THEY MUST BE 320x480.

The only other issue i see for me is that sometimes it doesnt start up right away until you open and close any app....but i use to have this happen on 2.2.1 so no big deal it works and i LOVE IT

Here's a little tutorial I found for the folks who were curious on how to install vWallpaper on their iPhones....


Download the files from this site: First public beta for OS 3.0 | iPhone Software.
Get skrewcommon and vwallpaper.
SSH into your iphone and place these files in the tmp folder on your iphone.

Run these commands in terminal:
dpkg -i /tmp/vWallpaper110.deb

dpkg -i /tmp/SkrewCommon155.deb

then restart your iphone.

i have everything installed on 3gs, perfectly. But videos dont play when someone calls. Vwallpaper works perfectly though
