Use Root Explorer to move them to your app folder.
Try Astro. I can install widgets fine....which ones are you trying to install?
I'm running Cyan's 3.6.8.1, without a theme, and have no problem installing apks with Linda.
Make sure you have unknown sources checked under settings > applications. Put the .apk on your sd card and install.
Hi all,
Does anyone know if i can get Weather Widget Donate if don't have access to "paid market"? (I'm from Scandinavia)
Thx in advance!
Try one of these..
Rename them from .zip to .apk and run on the android using a file manager (Astro file manager (free from market) works like a charm)
Thx! I'll try that!
I can get the clock to work but not the forecast. It can't refresh. Anyone having a newer version?

Very kind of you mate, I've been trying to get hold of the flip clock for ages. Even though I have market access I cannot buy apps until Google supports Maestro debit cards. Thanks

I uninstalled, ran fix_permissions, and reinstalled. Then powered off and back on, but still no luck. I just ran fix_permissions again with the app installed and rebooted, but again no luck.
when trying to configure the widget, I get a force close.
i'm using 4.0.4 but with enoch theme, and the weather widget works fine, can't see why a theme would cause you issues?
Did you have it installed prior to 4.0.4? do you have your sdcard partitioned? If so i would recommend formatting the ext2/3 partition and trying again!

I did not have it installed prior to 4.0.4. My SD is partitioned (ext3) already. Did an uninstall and reinstall and nada.
It's a bit of a long shot, but you could uninstall it, format your ext3 partition again, then re-install.

Just got an e-mail back from the developer stating that it is a ROM problem. Couldn't hurt to re-flash the Cyanogen 4.0.4 right? Right now I have 4.0.4 running with Dark Hero. Weather Widget Donate is also installed. If I am going to just start from scratch, I should:
1. Uninstall Weather Widget Donate + Forecast AddOn
2. ReFlash 4.0.4
3. ReInstall Dark Hero
4. Reinstall Weather Widget Donate + Forecast AddOn
Please advise if this doesn't sound correct.
I would format the SD card too and do a full clean install.
Personally, I would;
- Wipe/clean the data on the phone with recovery image
-Format SD into three partitions with recovery
-Install new rom eg CM 4.0.4 (copy rom onto formatted sd with a card reader)
-Boot up new rom to make sure it boots up.
-Load up recovery mode, install new theme (no formats or wipes)
-install the weather apps

bhav,
I currently have three partitions, will the wipe/clean from recovery remove them? If not, do you suggest reformatting the three partitions?
the wipe clean only does the phone side data stuff, you have to manually do the SDCard
EDIT: nevermind, got it.

hi all,i m newbi in nexus one, after i flash my n1 to froyo...i cannot insatall app anymore,can some body help me..pls...thank you very much!
It would be helpful if you could tell us:
1) Which ROM you used to get to 2.2
2) What happens when you try to install an app? Step by step, the actions you take and the result
3) Any error messages, codes, or other details that might help
I also could not install apps
I had the same problem. Here are the details:
1. ROM n1-Sh0t with kernal and new keyboard
2. Applications that would not install:
a) Nitrodesk Touchdown
b) MyTracks
I cannot give you much detail. I tried to install from copies on my sd card and just got a message that the app would not install. I also downloaded from the web using market and got the same message. The apps would download but would not install.

I was flash yesterday with this rom
1.Step_One_Froyo_Radio_Update
2.RoDrIgUeZsTyLe_FroYo_MCR_R16_MOD_V1-6_ROM
after this, I did well all with this rom (included install app to ext)
but..this morning I was reboot my N1,all app I install to ext cannot read anymore (lost icon at all )
then I cannot install any app again...(messanges show installing now.....long time but cannot complete)
I have the same problem, I can't install any apps. Not from the market and not apk-files from a file browser. It just keep saying 'Installing...'
I was on [email protected] MCR Mod Rom V1.7 and everything worked fine.
Then I tried out Kang-o-rama Froyo and that's when the problem started. I did a complete wipe before installing. I did a recovery, but when I was back on my nandroid recovery I could still not install any apps.
Went back to a stock 2.1 I had on my memory card and then I could install apps. But when going to 2.2 again I still can't install any apps.
I was install RoDrIgUeZsTyLe_FroYo_MCR_R16_MOD_V1-7__FIX rom
also try "n1-sh0t" rom
and then I try to install another app...but I cannot complete install at all
then I click “Dev Tools" (in laucher) \ Development setting
I got this message =
The application Dev Tools (process com.android development)
has stopped unexpedly.Please try again.
what's wrong with this...
can any one help me up..thank you
(sorry about my poor english)
then I go back to 2.1 rom,it run very well
So I deleted the '.android_secure' folder on my sdcard and did a recovery, now I can install apps again.
thank you very very much

External means that you're installing your apps on the sdcard. (They are installed in the '.android_secure' folder) If any widgets or apps that need root would be installed on the sdcard you should move them to the phone. You can do that by go in to 'settings' >> 'applications' >> 'manage aplications' and find that app, press it, and in its settings you can move it.
Anyways to your problem: The reason why you can't see some apps are because you're running LauncherPro as your home app. You can just kill it and press home so it will re-launch and then you should see your apps again. You might have to do that from time to time after you have rebooted your phone.
Froyo FRF83B stock
I having an issue, recently updated to FRF83B and have the latest radio 4.06 however having issues when I try to install an app from the Market (first it will download and then it will come to the installing part) the phone freezes and then restarts.
So I can not install any apps on the market, and I am searching far and wide for a solution, does anyone know what I can do to fix this up!?
Hey, not sure if this really belongs here, or in General, but since its semi-hacking the system, I'll post here first.
It seems, so far, that Touchwiz isn't nearly as deeply integrated as Sense is, and that at least some of Samsung's Modified Apps can just be backed-up, deleted, and replaced with the stock apps from Android 2.1 (using apps ripped from CM5.0.8 for Nexus 1 for my attempts.)
So, I thought I'd start a list of stock Android 2.1 apps that people have made work on the vibrant. I know a lot of people are waiting for CM or other custom roms and alternate recovery images, but in the mean time, lets start customizing!
I have confirmed the following to work, but only after the original touchwiz apps are deleted from /system/app, then the stock apps are installed via the standard installer to /data/app and cp over to /system/app then reboot
Music.apk
DeskClock.apk
Calendar.apk
CalendarProvider.apk
GenieWidget.apk
Mms.apk (NEW! added 7/21/2010)
Another pleasant surprise, is that I now have the default Calendar, music, and news & weather widgets on my vibrant!
Again, adb push didn't work for anything since I can't remount with r/w access yet, but a su adb shell allowed me to busybox cp them to /sytem/app once they were installed.
I've tried the same method with the CM5.0.8 LiveWallpapers with no success, so maybe someone else has some suggestions?
My next step is to test out bringing the original phone.apk and contacts.apk/contactsprovider.apk over
7/21/2010
Got the default messaging app from CM 5.0.8 brought over, still having tons of trouble with the default dialer and contacts/contacts provider, samsung has buried their signature for these deep in android somewhere, even outside of /data/system/packages.xml so any attempt to install the CM versions even after removing the Touchwiz apps fail.
7/22/2010
Pushed ADW Launcher to system, works like a charm! However, removing the TouchWiz30Launcher apk/odex and replacing with adw or launcher pro generates constant FC's for me, so sadly, it looks like it has to stay installed for now.
cheers everyone!

I actually installed the News & Weather app yesterday by just putting it on the SD Card and using ASTRO to install.. nothing special for that app.

I was about to say the same thing, I just did an ADB install for this, didn't need to delete anything from data/app or anything.
It's cool to hear that the other stuff works though.

The Gapps for 2.1, same CM Nexus thread.
Here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623496
Sorry for the confusion about 'news and weather' I just meant I was unable to adb push the apk directly to system. It installs fine by default to /data/app but I wanted it in /system/app to survive resets, hence the busybox cp.
So far no luck with contacts/contactsprovider =(
Every version I try give me an install failed error, regardless of removing all traces of the samsung versions, even their references in /data/system/packages.xml

I'm honestly not sure how to tell if it is.
I pulled the Music.apk straight out of the /system/app dir from the CM 5.0.8 update for the Nexus 1.

can anyone provide News and Weather widget from stock OS. I think its the best news app.
Grab the 'Google Apps' addon for CM 5.0.8 for the nexus one, unzip it, and copy 'GenieWidget.apk' to your phone to install it.
cheers!

Any word on if the stock launcher works? I don't really like ADW or Touchwiz

Hi again.
I haven't tried deleting the touchwiz launcher yet, but I'm using launcherPro Plus (and playing with ADW too, I really like that ADW supports the touchwiz horizontal style 'paging' in the app drawer, and hope launcher pro eventually supports it too) and they both work quite well, and should work fine when pushed into /system/app too.
Will update if I'm brave enough to remove the TW launcher, probably not tonight though, just spent the last 3 hours trying to get the stock dialer & contacts, and it was an epic fail, samsung has buried the touchwiz dialer/contacts signature deep, so no matter what I try, I always get an Install_failed_update_incompatible error when pushing the stock apps to the phone.
This is the same error I first received with the calendar, but a simple settings->applications->manage applications 'uninstall' of the remaining TWCalendar and Provider, and a reboot cleared that error, sadly that's not the case with dialer and contacts.
Maybe a wipe would fix this, but I'll wait another day or so to see how the clockwork custom recovery pans out, plus I need to make sure nandroid works so I can backup before I try that.
It also might be linked to something buried in the TW framework, I don't know, but I'm so not brave enough to mess with frameworks yet.
cheers everyone
Root Explorer allows your mount and unmount system drives btw. I like using it over ADB bc I can do it on the bus or train while commuting.
If I want to install the Stock 2.1 Calendar App, do I need to install the Calendar provider apk as well? I know the answer seems obvious but I just want to check

I'm honestly not sure if the CalendarProvider.apk is necessary, but I replaced the touchwiz provider with it for good measure.

Okay, I keep getting App not installed error, Ive removed TW Calendar and TW Calendar provider apk and odex from system, but I still get the error when trying to install Calendar.apk
I finally made the jump and rooted my Droid 1 today and installed CM6. I had issues with Rom Manger giving me an error when trying to download CM6 with Google Apps, so I downloaded the ROM from the web and installed it manually. Works like a charm.
I tried to go back to ROM Manager and just install Google Apps, but it keeps giving me an error during downloading.
I still need the Google Apps installed... I have downloaded the zip and moved it to my SD card, but can't figure out how to flash it. (been searching the past hour for an answer) I have gone to recovery mode but it looks like that is only to update ROMs (update.zip) am I missing something easy here?
Thanks

It depends on what Recovery image you are using. For some reason ROM Manager gets a bad CRC or other error when downloading the GApps addon update zip. Don't know why. However if you get the latest file directly from the CyanogenMod site (hardware appropriate of course) you can install it from the recovery screen.
I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.0.1 and it allows you to specify a .zip of any name and directory on the SD-card (you have to mount it first). I'm not sure if normal SPRecovery allows for that. Make no mistake, installing the GApps is basically a ROM update, as it installs them to the System apps folder (which is essentially read only).
One thing to note once you get it installed. Sometimes you get issues with updating the ROM's apps (including GApps). This was notoriously noticed with the new Car Home and the new YouTube apps. In order to fix it, you have to use RootExplorer, TitaniumBackup or another SuperUser enabled browser or app manager to forcefully remove the system app, then get the updated app from the Market.
I hope that helps.
I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.0.1 but didn't see a menu item for installing zip files. I ended up renaming the Gapps file to Update.zip and flashed it in recovery mode. Worked like a charm.
Thanks
Do any of you have this error itself?
I'd like to see if I could make sense of it. Back when I installed Cyanogenmod 6.0.0 on my new phone, about 2 weeks ago, I was able to install it with GApps with no problem.
