The upcoming MIUI 12 mars and earth super wallpapers are available to download right now.
I saw some people having issue trying to set it up so I’m here to help you guys out. ( Tested on mi 9t pro)
Download the super wallpaper files, it’s going to be a big zip file with all the wallpapers and apk for them.
Extract and install them
2- Go to play store and download Google wallpapers app
3- Go into your phone wallpaper settings and set a live wallpaper as wallaper and lockscreen, those animated ones that come with the phone, if your phone doesn’t have live wallpapers you should be able to download one from an app like Zedge ( This step is very important, you need to set a live wallpaper to both the lockscreen and the home screen or the MIUI 12 super wallpapers won’t work on the lockscreen).
4- Go the Google wallpapers and at the bottom you should see a section called dynamic wallpapers, click on it and choose the super wallaper.
And everything should work.
Edit: video proof
Edit 2: I’m on mi 9t pro 11.0.6 not sure if has anything to do with that.
Edit 3: made another video showing how to do it, should be easier to follow ( low quality not sure why)
Additional info
It wasn’t working for me I tried all day long. The super wallpaper would show up on home screen but never on lock.
After reading this, I though that I was maybe because of ” geographic restrictions ”so I set my location to India in the settings after step 3, I did the step 4 and it finally worked.
I could switch my region back to the original one after that and the super wallpaper still seems to be working fine
Glad it helped you, I’m from Europe and didn’t have to change regions. Just had to set the default wallpaper first and tan apply the mars super wallpaper.
AOD works? Can you post video screenshots? I got it to work eith activity launcher but the AOD doesn’t work properly, just shows the clock
Can confirm that AOD works on my phone with the wallpaper, the mars one at least.
I do not have activity launcher.
Weird, I’m from Europe too. Usually location set to Switzerland to be able to use the theme app
But for me nothing worked until I switched to India…
Don’t know why, I’ve been following guidelines from multiple sources in vain until 1h ago
Posted a video of it
Not working for me.
Set theme to default.
Set phone region to India.
Set any of the super wallpaper selecting lock and wallpaper.
Shows and works on main wallpaper but lock is still default.
Just watched your video, so no planet on the AOD? That’s what i meant
For reference https://youtube.com/watch?v=DOfq3wrRc7Y loud warning
Oh like that. Guess it doesn’t work then
I dont see that dynamic wallpapers. I have live wallpapers but its empty.
Also where do i need to extract?
Extract to download folder and install each apk
Ohhh I got it. Thanks these are really cool. And idk what you meant with theme. It’s the same wallpaper like it was out of the box.
I got it to work only in home screen.
I have redmi note 7.
i did this too but the lock screen is still the default wallpaper
Thanks for the 3rd step it’s very helpful
Doesn’t work on mi 9t pro global 11.0.4
Wierd. Works on mine, try to change the location to India first and than apply the wallpaper, someone suggested it in the comments.
You can Change it back after
Yeah I tried that too . Anyway I have the mars super wallpaper on home and for lockscreen I’m using a still image of mars from MIUI 12 , so it kinda imitates the same feel .
Did exactly what I posted here and it’s working so idk
That’s what I said, my default theme was the live wallpaper
If it came with a live wallpaper use that instead of a static image and it should work.on the lockscreen too
You need to apply the default live wallpaper in the wallpaper setting first and than go to Google wallpaper and apply the miui12 one
Yeah thanks I was applying the default theme through the themes app . Turned out I had to go through the settings to do that . Thanks again .
You need to set the default live wallpaper that comes with the phone on the wallaper setting in the phone settings first and than apply the miui12 one in Google wallpaper
i did that
Doesn’t work I. Lockscreen or AOD
Made a video showing how to do it, try it like that
Made a video about how to do it try it like that
Using Xiaomi EU rom on my mi mix 3, the mars one refuses to install, says I cannot update/install system applications from another source
Is there a way to get this working on lineageOS?
Unable to use it with the latest xiaomi eu buuld
Works fine here (except the AOD part)
Did you choose “both” so you have default wallpaper on lockscreen and home screen? It doesn’t work if you set default wallpaper just on lockscreen.
Everything was installed and applied successful, but it doesn’t appear on the lockscreen. Help?
For me aod doesn’t work. ( but I don’t use it)
yea i did
Love your theme, what is it called?
same here..
Worked for me on Pocophine F1 for both lockscreen and homescreen. Now this phone didn’t come with any preinstalled default live wallpapers, but I had a few that I installed manually and setting one of those worked just fine.
Firstly set stock live wallpaper both to lock screen and home screen. Then apply from google wallpaper. This worked for me.
You just need to set any live wallpaaper to both home and lock screen that worked for me.
It works on my Mi 9T pro MIUI global 11.0.3 and the region set to India 🙂
You have to set any live wallpaper to lock and homes screen or it won’t work.
Set any live wallpaper to lock and home screen then set the super wallpaper and it should work.
Mi9t miui global 11.0.5.0 works like a charm. Thanks!
Thank you a lot!! Was trying to figure it out for the past 3-4 days.
On my mi8, xiaomi.eu latest weekly, I have to enable AOD in order to have this wallpaper on the lockscreen. Strange, I know
Is there any way to enable darkmode in system settings, apps and all that stuff while keeping the wallpapers in lightmode? The dark wallpaper being forced during the day really bothers me.
Mi Mix 3(5g) on stock miui 10 os9
AOD is already on. Still not on lock screen.
Im looking for that too, so far im only getting the dark walllpaper
I’m using the icons from a theme called “don’t touch NY”
Any white line icons would looks fine tho
Half working to me. Lockscreen to wallpaper yes, but AOD is default
AOD doesn’t work, it’s a feature that is implemented on MIUI 12
Thaks for the reply. I have mi 9t pro, so hope to see full feature then!
There is a beta rom you can flash but I wouldn’t recommend since it’s poorly translated.
Full official version should be out around June I think
Im not into flashing my device. I can wait till summer for sure.
For me doesn’t work on lockscreen :c
Nice.
I just set it as a wallpaper and lock screen using nova launcher and it works perfectly!
I am on redmi 5a miui 11.0.2, and my phone does not have a default live wallpaper, will i still be able to apply this super live wallpaper?
I don’t know, if the phone supports live wallpapers you should be able to.
Thanks. I tried. It wont work on the lock screen and phone slowed down a lot.
Thanks! I don’t know how I made it work,but I made it and it’s beautiful. Are these the only livewallpapers? I would love something with a beach and waves.
Yeah currently only 3.
working for me mi9t miui 11 eu rom
It works on my phone (OnePlus 7 pro), but the background itself (not lockscreen) is dark and a bit blurry. Does anyone know why this is or how to fix it?
Yeah same here and then I realised they came with the first MIUI 12 beta for my device so it’s all good. Apparently all Snapdragon 845+ and smoked devices will get it natively
It is a problem with app signing. The needs the same signature as the rom to display in AOD. So you need a build from your manufacturer.
I am using a redmi note 6 pro with miui 11. Please tell me how do I set it up on the lock screen as the wallpaper won’t appear on the lock screen.
This is for all those who weren’t able to get the super wallpaper to show on the lock screen
All you gotta do is download a random live wallpaper and set it up both on the lock screen as well as on the home screen. Once you’ve made sure that the wallpaper plays ok the lockscreen then choose the super wallpaper and I bet it should do the job…well it worked for me…
Were you finally able to do it?
SOLUTION : It works when you go to themes app, profile, wallpaper, live wallpaper and add a new video (any short video from your gallery) and set it for your home and lock screen.
After that’s set, go to your Google Wallpapers app and set the desirable live (earth/Mars) wallpaper. This should work! It worked for me after a loooot of trials
That did it thanks
How to set on lock screen on emui 10?
It was driving me crazy and finally found this solution… Thanks so much
yesss thank you, you are the mvp
Oh My God, worked like a charm. Thanks a lot. 👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏
Man this works! Thank you smmm!
(I’m on the Poco X2, also known as the redmi k30 in some markets.)
That worked for me…
Thanks brother
Can you please tell me how to install it on MIUI 12 itself?
All the info in the internet is about porting it to other versions.
Found. They also appear at live wallpaper section.
This is a way to make it work on MiUI 11, if you want MIUI 12 you have to wait until it comes out and update it in phone settings, should be out this or next week.
Yes. I’ve already got the update.
But I didn’t find a way to pick up super wallpapers from settings.
The default was Mars. But idk how to select the other ones.
I’ve got this working on the Poco F2 Pro, but how can I select landing points?
How can I remove it? I want my old home and lock screen images back, thanks
Just change the wallaper…
Thanks!
Ofc I already tried it :T I changed themes, wallpapers, um selected the mars thingy but it still shows :c
Go to phone settings>apps>manage apps, search for the super wallpapers and unninstall them
Thanks, I did try it before and I see no Super Wallpaper app or anything like it
Google Wallpaper doesn’t work from my side. No app icon 🙁
This works for me!!!
i just updated my mi 8 lite to miui 12 and my phone doesn’t support super wallpaper. but this worked for me and it’s nice. thank you. however it has some bugs and i dont know how is battery usage.
Today update to miui 12 on my note 8 pro and I couldnt change lockscreen with Google wallpapers. The only thing it worked was put first any live wallpaper in both and then changed with Google wallpapers. Now it works.
Have you figured it out? I didn’t want the bright mode, but the wallpaper that I’ve just got-the new Saturn super wallpaper is too beautiful.. still in bright mode tho
Hi, my Goolgle wallpaper app disappear from home screen icons after MIUI 12 update, but it appear in google play list only with the “unistall” option. How can I open google wallpaper app in MIUI 12 to set the new super wallpapers?
Bug report:
hmmmm… on the mi 9 lite the bright version of mars causes the top right ui elements to switch color to black and become really hard to read (black on orange). This does not happen with the normal version of mars without the dark mode enabled on the phone.
I have the Redmi Note 8 Pro, with the new MIUI 12 Update in EU West. I didn’t even had the Live Wallpapers pre installed. Now I installed them manually. I set them both to lock and home screen but only the home screen is working…
Thank you!
Thank you very much for the detailed explanation, it works like a charm on my Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite. However, there is no way the wallpaper could be set only on the lock screen instead of both the home and lock screen?thank you!
Thanks man you’re a lifesaver
Works with lock and Homescreen. The only thing that doesn’t work is this animation when you switch the page.
Its not working for lockscreen. For me it didn’t have default live wallpaper so i downloaded another and set it to lock and home, then tried in wallpaper app but when i pressed apply it directly applied. It didn’t show options for home or lockscreen or both!
I can get it to work kind of. I have an S10 and the wallpaper is animated on the lock and home screens, but when I swipe between pages on my home screen the image doesn’t spin
In google wallpapers, the wallpaper shows black and I can’t set it
