Hi all, I have had to jump camps due to vodafail not being able to provide a signal/service to me, as a result they demanded the return of the handset
As a result I have a new handset, a new provider and I can make and receive calls and SMS.
But I miss a few things from the HTC stock rom, main one being the combined news and weather app, anyone know the name? I have my leedroid roms (still) so I can pick it out of that, but for the lif eof me cannot figure out which it is, I am hoping it is NOT HTC Sense specific...
Any help appreciated chaps
Silas
The combined news and weather app is just called "News & Weather"

No worries. I use that app as well as I prefer it over the others I've tried.

Anyone DL'd Uweather yet? Its great! I love it much more that Accuweather or Weather Channel.
I've used WeatherUnderground.com for years anyhow, and now this mobile app is powered by WU. It has live webcams, radar, and 5 day forecast. It has a very simple and easy UI.
The best part is the small footprint (588kb) Vs Accuweather (3mb).
Its not as pretty as Accuweather, but definately worth it with the space it saved.
What do you guys think??
does it display the temp in the notifications bar?
Tried it, using it now. It's a lot more simple than AccuWeather, only one page, a five day forecast. If you want more info it'll open up a link in the browser. It's decent, and has a smaller footprint than AccuWeather that uses up too much disk space. No temp in the status bar as far as I can tell.
I like Weatherbug ONLY because of the temp on the status bar. But Uweather is a great app too.
Can you post the APK? Can't locate on market.

Danke.
I'm in Canada, so I can't buy the app because the market doesnt let me get paid apps.
I have cyanogen rom on my Rogers Dream. Is there a way to get a flip clock even though I'm not in USA or UK?

You should be able to contact the dev and ask him if you can pay for it via paypal or something. The website for weather widget donate is lock2.wordpress.com

Well, you could. All it takes is a hero rom that you like :b
But anyway, weather widget is exactly like the weather clock. He also has a free version however that does not allow theming.
Just use market enabler.

If I wanted responses from people acting like know-it-all jackasses I wouldn't have made the thread.
In case anyone wants it, this is a news and weather apk that def works on the xoom. If anyone wants to include in their rom please give credit where credit is due.
For the few that may have any problems with the original apk here is the new (signed genie apk) optimized one!
ANDDDD for those who want an optimized widget (RC2) with the normal gray background here you go!
I know this is a lot of news and weather widgets LOL I promise I am moving on to bigger things But I love blue and this is for anyone else that does too! I can do other colors if anyone wants, just ask, I would be happy! All i ask is that you hit the thanks button if you like, thank you!

Do I need to be rooted to install launcher pro?
BTW that is one bad ass home screen brother!!
Hello, no you do not have to be rooted to install launcher pro. I like ADW ex it seems more intuitive but launch pro is good too. Hope this helps.

Thanks. The idea for me is to have everything on one screen and with Launcher Pro, you get the extra screen (notice no borders) and the widgets can be resized.
You do not need root to install launcher Pro but keep in mind it is not designed for tablets so some tweaking of the settings is necessary. There is a thread on this already I think in Xoom General forums which covers this.
Also, the background is using the Live Aquarium live wallpaper. I have not noticed any lag with Launcher Pro or this live Wallpaper as others have reported. It may be because I only use one home screen.

il see what i can do, wont be tonight tho, will prob mean messing with the xml files.
that's fine.
I jumped on the SGS2 LWP and it's really bright so the white text doesn't show up at all :S
would be cool to get a Genie Widget that does the same (I have a transparent one with white letters)
but don't wanna get greedy

What's up Morgan Evans (or anyone that can help).....I just got my Xoom and flashed the AOSP ics rom (the nightly rom seemed too advanced for me)....
I was wondering (if the fact were on different ics roms renders your advice useless then I understand) if you could me how I could set up that "hub" system on my Xoom....it would work PERFECTLY with the type of person I am and I would really enjoy it....
I understand that getting an old version of adw is the most problematic part...
That's good info!
