I would like to set a certain Drawable
as the device\'s wallpaper, but all wallpaper functions accept Bitmap
s only. I cannot use WallpaperMan
METHOD 1 : Either you can directly convert to bitmap like this
Bitmap myLogo = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(context.getResources(), R.drawable.my_drawable);
METHOD 2 : You can even convert the resource into the drawable and from that you can get bitmap like this
Bitmap myLogo = ((BitmapDrawable)getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.logo)).getBitmap();
For API > 22 getDrawable
method moved to the ResourcesCompat
class so for that you do something like this
Bitmap myLogo = ((BitmapDrawable) ResourcesCompat.getDrawable(context.getResources(), R.drawable.logo, null)).getBitmap();
