How To Create An Android App To Cycle Through Backgrgound Images On Home Screen?

I need a little bit of help and I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction. I want to do something that I thought would be simple.

Keep in mind that I'm new to Android development so this answer ma开发者_StackOverflow中文版y seem clear and apparent to some.

I want to create a slideshow of my images that people can download from the app store. The images should change every few seconds and the images will be installed on the home screen. I know how to create animations and I know how to create an application that displays images that change after a few seconds. However, I do not know how to set this up so that it can be displayed on the home page!

What I have right now is an app whose icon you have to click on to launch it. How can I modify my app so that the user could install it and have the slideshow display in the background of the home screen?

I have looked all over and I find examples of Live Wallpapers, but my images are all static. I would REALLY appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction or offer the location of a tutorial I can read through.

Thank you so much!
