Answer 3

Which are the permission i given to set live wallpaper and i cant get gallery images

If your questions are interconnected, then permissions have nothing to do with you not being able to get gallery images

If these are two independent questions, I would suggest:

1. Start with a good tuturial. For example: http://www.vogella.com/articles/AndroidLiveWallpaper/article.html
2. Post the a separate question regarding getting gallery images in your app.

Anyway, to answer the question about permissions alone, depending on how you configure your application,

<uses-feature android:name="android.software.live_wallpaper" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BIND_WALLPAPER" />

Why I say depending on how you confihure your application is beacuse of this. If you look at the Vogella tutorial linked, the permission android:permission="android.permission.BIND_WALLPAPER" > is declared in the service in the application attribute.

If you look at this tutorial: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/108390/How-To-Create-Android-Live-Wallpaper, it has the permission set to the application tag.
