Wanted to know if the ESPN widget from aHome Cupcake version can be extracted to be used as an original home widget? Or apk.
I extracted aHome Test and looked and saw there is an espn xml file and some drawables and some other files.. would it be easy enough to pack it into theDude's Build v.92 or Haykuro or JF..
Or is there an apk to install or extract?
This goes for all widgets.. since we now can add them as we want with Cupcake of course, are people interested in crossing widgets across the diferent versions to make a full pool of widgets...?? (Which after this competition may happen)
I would really love to have a ESPN widget on my home screen too!.... Bump!
bump! i'm still on the search for this answer
bump, would like to know if it's possible as well.
There is a espn widget on the market and its FREE
http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.iridianstudio.ESPNWidget
true but this widget does not give realtime scores or scores at all for that matter!
yea its a news widget...something i already get from twitter...i would love a widget with live scores.
Been lookin for this widget too. the espn widge on the market aint at all like the one from ahome. anybody anybody please!
Use sports tap for scores... works great btw
yeah sports tap works fine for now..
im sure being patient, someone will pop up with a better/enhanced or upgraded version for something...

Conditions :
- it should NOT exist on market.
- I should be able to sell it on the market (can't sell small widget, like memory, or pictures)
- it will be free during beta testing, paid after
- winning idea will have widget for free
Winning ideas :
+++ messaging widget (gmail + SMS + email)
+++ bookmark widget with sync with mobile browser & xmarks
Remaing ideas :
++ task widget
+ dock to put more app icons into one cell
+ dialer widget
+ photo galery with flicker integration
+ power control widget
+ stock market
Ideas not developed :
- email/SMS/MMS widget >>> problem, there is no gmail API ! >>> solution found !!!!!!!!
Some kind of system montior widget would be great. ie, something that would show: CPU frequency, CPU load, swap usage, battery level, disk usage on fat + ext...
I don't know about other people, but I normally check this stuff from the terminal, so it would be nice to have a widget.

Oh really? There might be, but I was thinking of one with root users in mind, so we could check our ext's, CPU freq ect. Just an idea...

super social net widget
I would suggest an integrated Twitter/Facebook/GTalk(Jabber)/SMS-MMS widget where you can see everything in one location (maybe tab based or mixed with a label of some sort).
If tabbed, the number of new messages could be part of the tab label or added to the notification bar.
If everything shows in same window, then touching a message could either allow the user to respond or open the appropriate app.
Could be enhanced later with LinkedIn, Plaxo, etc. based on what people want.
Hummmm ... good idea an email widget.
Does it exist only on Hero now ?

Main problem with this are API.
Most API have restrictions for commercial uses... so, to use thoses API, you have to create your software as 'free'... This is not my goal.
I believe it does as I can't see it anywhere else
well it's not really a widget i'm missing. but a program to auto end and auto-start other programs at specific times would be great
so one could auto-end k-9 at 23:00, have a good night's sleep and have it autostart at 7:00 to read all the new mails...

You could try and make a bookmark widget like the one in hero

I cant really think of anything that isnt in the market. but i know of a few things that i think are in the market, but can be done better...
personally, i liked the WM 6.2 screen where you had a scrolling "widget" that you could use to place direct call shortcuts... id love to see a android version of that...
the ones out there are ok, but they arent as clean looking as the WM take on it... from what ive seen of your work, you are the person that i think could create something like what im thinking of...
the one on the hero is fine, but, i even think its a bit clunky...

I would really like to have a dialer widget. I hate the default behavior that the green call button brings up the call log instead of the dialer. In fact, I would be quite happy if the built-in dialer could be made into a widget. I imagine it would take up an entire home screen but I'm fine with that.

fluent scrolling is impossible with current SDK. You have to simulate scrolling with buttons ... not very fun.

No he can't. Just because there is no way on normal android launcher to have a scrolling widget.
Yes a bookmark widget

ok.. so ive looked for and tested different messaging apps, like chomp and handcent, but i rly dont like em! i like sense messaging app, but i dont like that it uses avatars on every message thread, i saw a movie (http://www.youtube.com/user/pocketnowvideo#p/u/3/g2qor5UTgZ0 6.10 in the movie)
and i did like that message app, is that the original andriod? or is it just for nexus? or is it the 2.0/2.1 messaging app?
could that be implanted to hero? with sense?
well i made a mockup in photoshop kinda how i would like a messaging app to look like! do anyone think this would me possible?
i did this rly fast so not rly that serious! but i bet u get my idé
I think its from the N1 called merlin something, but I know Eugene had ported it to the BH2. Anyone have it that works for the Slide?
It basically just listed news stories, but it was much better than just RSS feeds.
i thought merlin was a wizard not a genie
Harsh!! I think Merlin was the Telnav app on the BH2.
But thanks for the app! Works great (widget appears after a reboot)!
hi =)
I've been looking for this genie widget, but in a transparent version, also in flashable zip. I can't seem to adb the other, i get parse errors or force closes. Is there a way to edit these to be transparent? Thanks!
When you search google or any other search engine for the g-tablet, you get images of the gtab with a weather app on it... does anyone know what the hell that app is called? Is it part of tapntap? I played with it for about 10 mins before I flashed Vegan and have been trying to find a good weather/dashboard app (something that shows current weather/news/missed emails/yada yada ;D
Does anyone know? Or can you point me to a good "dashboard" app that has the features mentioned above. I'm willing to pay, doesn't have to be a freebie. I've searched the marketplace high and low and can't find anything that does that...or I'm not searching under the right tools.
Thanks in advance!
Tim
I flashed vegan right after I got mine, and I just use a set of beautiful widgets to make my homescreen the way I want it. It has time and weather, and I have a page just for facebox and twitter. No idea how to take screenshots, else I'd post a few.
That image is the "dashboard" that is the Tap'n'tap UI when not in classic mode. I've never used any of the TNT Lite ROMs which I understand are stripped down and improved versions of the Tap'n'tap ROM but I absolutely hated the stock ROM and the Tap'n'tap UI during the blissfully brief period I use it.

No, the "dashboard" has a weather area, a news area, and an analog clock. However, tapping on the weather area will take you to the pictured app.
The image is of the Tapntap weather app
