Apologies for being impatient, I'm pulling my last hair out on this issue. 
 To my defence I didn't "bump" after 3 hours, it was more like 27 hours 
(not sure if living in Australia where the time is now 9am on the 26th of 
Sept has anything to do with the thought that I bumped after 3 hours, 
anyway, there's no excuse for bumping, my patience got the best of me).

Back to the matter at hand, I'm using the Tutorial (found 
here http://www.vogella.com/articles/AndroidLiveWallpaper/article.html), as 
a basis for my wallpaper.  It has two activities, LiveWallpaperSettings 
extends PreferenceActivity and MainActivity extends Activity.

I have the following activities (after setting up the stock standard 
wallpaperservice):
<activity android:label="@string/livewallpaper_settings"
  android:name="com.clock.LiveWallpaperSettings"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme"
android:exported="true"
android:icon="@drawable/clockicon">
</activity>

<activity
                        android:name="com.clock.MainActivity"
                        android:screenOrientation="sensor"
                        android:label="@string/app_name"
                        
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Light.WallpaperSettings" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

When I move the filters to the Settings activity, the wallpaper doesn't 
launch from Settings, it crashes with "Unfortunately Clock Wallpaper has 
stopped".  
No matter where the intent filter is, when I click on the icon for the 
wallpaper, it toasts "Application is not installed".  Just note when I say 
click on the icon I mean the icon in the Apps folder, not the wallpaper 
itself under Settings.  Clicking the wallpaper under settings works 
perfectly with the activities defined as above.
