Where can I find the New and Weather APK from the Nexus One?
All I find in the forums are ported to 1.5/6 and don't seem to work on the newer Froyo from TMO.
Thanks in advance!
Never mind I solved it. Downloaded a nexus one rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7655349&postcount=443 and pulled the GenieWidget.apk from the zip file.
Adb install and it runs just fine.
Was searching for this for such a long time... thanks for the post and link

Great stuff, thanks!
Do we run this as an update.zip in recovery? I wasnt able to find any apk upon unzipping?

No dont do it through recovery it wont work, it should be there if you unzip it, try renaming the .zip to .apk
thanks

any advantages of this over the htc default weather app?
It is much more detailed and it included News as well
Thanks for this. Great app
In the widget sticky topic they mentioned music mod widget. Just beautiful.
I searched on the internet and replaced the original music.apk with the one I downloaded from the net using root explorer. The file was in the system/apps
But I can't see those widgets. I asked this question in that topic but I get the advise to ask it around. Now here is the topic. I an sure more people love this widget.
Is there any way I can get it work on my x10 without importing another rom. According to some one it usually comes in a rom, so there must be a way to get it working.
please help with this, I can't figure it out by myself.

music mod only for android 2.1 and 2.2
This is not a widged, it is a normall music player(replace standart)

If you using 2.2, try to search Music MOD on market
That will explain why its not working on my phone. I will try again after se update to 2.1 finally...
I really thought it was for 1.6 as well, otherwise I wouldn't have tried it in the first place.
Thanks for your answer.

Can someone please post the apk for the new beach live wallpaper on the froyo release? I downloaded it and tried to get inside the exe to find it myself but couldn't. I don't plan on flashing this rom just yet so I was wondering if someone could help me out.
Thanks
I pulled it from my build and posted it on my FTP site:
h t t p : / / e.1asphost.com/h8rift/TAT_LiveWallpaper_Beach.apk
Thanks! Hope this works for you!

Sorry mate.
Might be a bad upload/download.
I'm keep getting FC when I try to set it as wallpaper.
Tried on LauncherPRO, ADWLauncher, and TouchWiz.
Thanks for the upload though.

Will this only work on 2.2? I'm trying to get this to work on my fascinate but after looking in assets/properties.text, I'm stuck. Any help would be appreciated.
It force closes on me too. Thanks anyway h8rift. I appreciate you uploading it.
It wouldn't surprise me if you must have Froyo to run this live wallpaper. There's not a reason for it, but it might be signed or something for 2.2 only. Sorry
Is there a way to get this to work with 2.1? Really want this wallpaper.
i tried this on my 2.1 captivate, 2.1 dell streak, and 2.2 nexus one and they all crash.
@h8rift
there should be an odex file in the same directory as the apk file. can you please post the odex file as well?
any experts out there have any solution to get it running on 2.1 ?
Luv this livewallpaper a lot
tried on droid incredible, FC
would love to have this wallpaper
Ill pull it and post it tomorrow. Looked for a .odex file originally, didn't think I saw one. I'll look again tomorrow
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I checked again, no .odex file :/. All the other live wallpapers i have include .odex files, but this one does not.
Sorry .
Well, thanks for checking.
Just upgrade mine to leaked 2.2(JI6) and it works.
Guess this only runs from froyo.

i have a G2 and 2.2 still now working.?
How do I install this? I've only installed live wallpapers using droid explorer, and they have always been .apk files.
Vibrant
The wallpaper works on my vibrant thats using a flashed 2.2 rom the first time I tried it forced closed so I unistalled it and redownloaded it and been workin ever since thanks I lov the wallpaper
yeah it appears to only work on froyo samsung devices as far as I can tell

I've recently moved over from Acer's Liquid E phone to the Samsung Captivate. Nice upgrade, however; the stock app News and Weather is not available on the stock Rogers Rom or the Cognition 4.3 Rom that I have now installed.
I have tried several different apk's, but to no avail. They install, but i get FC's as soon as i try to add the widget to my homescreen.
Does anyone have a solution to to this problem, such as a working apk?
Thanks
EDIT: News and Weather widget also known as Genie widget

Thanks for the quick reply. How do I 'grab' it? Do I need to extract it from the rom?

You can't install it, you have to place it in the /system/app folder in the new rom (on your phone, replacing the one that doesn't work)
Use root explorer to place it.
Then restart your phone.

Oh so nice! I used Super Manager from the market to move the file from my sd card to the /system/app folder. Super manager was a little quirky to get root permission, but it worked after force closing.
I didn't even have to reboot!
Thanks for your help everyone.
Now I can keep track of each little article about the playoffs -
Boo yaa!
Best news customizable news app that ive found.
Now, how do I mark the thread as solved?
I moved over from the Acer Liquid E as well. While the Captivate is faster, it runs out of RAM faster since the Acer had the full 512mb available to the user and the Captivate only allows about 340mb.
Otherwise the Captivate is an upgrade in every other aspects!

I installed the new CM7 rom + Gapps.
Everything worked fine but the CM's calculator & calendar are far from what i was used on my stock 2.3.5 GB rom.
I've asked this same question on CM forum but no one replied so i'll try to ask here.
How can i replace my calculator with my old one?
I've successfully extracted the calculator apk from my old rom and have it on my sdcard ready to be installed.
But for some reason i cant get it to install and i even tried to put it on system/apps dir replacing the old one without success.
i know this is possible because i saw someone porting the same calculator to a nexus phone
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1522009)
with the apk from that post i could run and install the calculator but the resolution would not fit my screen
any help?
thank you very much, mornaistar

the calendar.apk that you got from old rom, put it in /system/app, now change its permissions using root explorer as follows
Read permission to all i.e. owner, group and others
Write permission to owner
rest unchecked..
after this reboot your phone.. this should work.. if it doesn't that means the apk is not compatible with CM7 firmware and you can search for some other calendar app that suits your needs
i've tested this and it wont work.
can someone port the apps for CM firmware? i know it's possible since xda users made it for other phones
i was able to run one of those ported apps in my galaxy s but the resolution was all wrong
