    using android code and p5 mode app (not wallpaper) you can do everything; using p5 wallpaper lets p5 making the job but you can do quite nothing because it installs the wallpaper then quit...

    look at the code i have given for that to @sarrio; of course my code is not for live wall paper but it s easy to adapt for that. What do you mean by "activity"? are you using AS or Eclipse?

    @akenaton I use AS. Activity is like the GUI from an App

    I asked you precisely because you were talking about activity, which is not a word from P5! - that s well, i use AS or eclipse and with an activity you can do what you want!

    @akenaton Ok,Sorry, I understand now. do you know how to start to set a live wallpaper (the wallpaper was programmed via Processing) directly from Activity(for example using a button)?

    @TrW236===

    you have to create an explicit intent with an action

    your button + onClickListener:::

            { Intent intent = new Intent(WallpaperManager.ACTION_LIVE_WALLPAPER_CHOOSER);
        startActivity(intent);
        }
