Just a nuance with Live Wallpaper

[Moscow Desire]

For those who love Live Wallpaper, and yeah, we all do. Here's a little tip.

Don't save your wallpaper to the SD, especially if you run a custom Rom. If you have issues after saving to SD, or moving to SD, issues like;

1. Your wallpaper changes to a default wallpaper.
2. Launcher vanishes
3. Any odd behavior forcing you to reboot your phone.

Then move your live wallpaper to the phones memory, and reselect it.

It may not happen with a stock phone, or with all custom Roms.

But, I'm 3 for 3 these past couple of weeks. All three with the same issue, and the same fix.

Just a tip.

More generally: Widgets and wallpapers (and for that matter anything that needs to run at startup before the sdcard is fully mounted) should be kept in the internal storage to allow android to load them at startup.
