The $64,000 question-Does Verizon actually support screensavers and wallpapers built with Flash Lite 2.1?

December 28th, 2006 by Ryan Unger   |   2,303 views

As far as I can tell there is no way for a regular consumer to buy screensavers through their handsets. I’ve built working screensavers for my BREW enabled Motorola V3m with Verizon and loaded them using Qualcomm’s AppLoader—but I am not a regular consumer. That said, does anyone know for sure if Verizon supports Flash Lite screensavers and wallpapers for any of it’s phones? There was a great deal of talk about this at MAX last October, but it was never clarified if screensavers and wallpapers for BREW phones are a thing of the future-or possible today.

   Do you know where I could find an article on loading SWF wallpapers on a BREW phone? I have had no luck with that so far. I have bought JPG wallpapers via Get It Now, but I havn’t seen SWF wallpapers as of yet (that’s not to say they don’t exist). Thanks.

   This is officially my first blog spam. I’ll leave it to commemorate this event. Thanks Joshua.

   To my knowledge this question has not been answered. I would image that smashing ideas + funmobility are planning on something happening soon and are preparing for it… but when?
