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!

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

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...
Has anyone found a radar widget for the GTab? Of all the weather widgets I have located, none of them actually offer an on-screen updating radar. I would even be happy with a hyperlink widget that can display the radar picture from a website and be set to update at certain intervals. Anyone have any ideas?
God Bless!
Look at weatherbug works great
Rainy Days
Thanks for the replies! However, neither of these apps offers a radar widget for the homescreens. This is what I'm really looking for.
Weatherbug can do it.. At least the pay version can, even animated so you can track storms! Its what i use...

Cool! It's not currently available in the Market...might be worth buying when it comes around again.
I ended up using a webcam widget linked to a doppler radar image on a weather website. I can't remember the exact name of the widget, but there are a few of them on the market. It refreshes the image every few minutes to keep it up to date. It doesn't do anything like zooming or animations (it -might- if the image you link to is an animated gif or something), but it's just a quick reference for me, and if I need more details or animations I just jump into weatherbug.

This is EXACTLY what I'm looking for!!! Thanks!!! I will try to find something that does that!
EDIT: I found Webcam Widget on the Market. It work PERFECTLY! You simply plug in the address and it automatically updates every 30 minutes. VERY basic...but, you can run multiple instances of the widget and it resizes well while keeping the aspect ratio of the radar image. Thanks again for the jump start in the right direction!
Which webcam widget did you nd up using?

The actual app is called Webcam Widget...I tried some others, but this one works fine and is VERY simple.
Im running tnt 4.4 and am having issue with stock 3d gallery.

I second this, QuickPic is much, much faster than the 3D Gallery app. I don't know that making wallpapers "look right" is really on the Gallery app (stock or not), but on the size and resolution of the wallpaper.
Whats the resolution gtab
1024 by 600.
I'm quickpic too. Wallpapers looking great

I would get Quick Pic for a gallery replacement, it is much more functional than any stock version and blistering fast as well. Then get multi picture live wallpaper to set your wallpaper with. After install you will have to choose wallpaper -> live wallpapers -> multi picture live wallpaper to set your wallpapers to display correctly on your tablet.
The best combo I have found for this tablet and my CM7 Nook Color. MPLW is the only I way I have found to get wallpapers to display correctly on any tablet that I have ever dealt with. There is a thread about this particular problem around here somewhere, search is your friend. Do a search for multi picture live wallpaper in the Gtab forums and you will find it. I think it (the thread) even goes as far as telling you the way to modify existing images or create your own to display correctly when chosen as wallpaper when you choose them by using the traditional method.

One more I want to toss in the ring.
Flick Ur Pic.
Get it from the market and use it in place of the Multi Picture Live Wallpaper I mentioned earlier. It scales the images perfectly on my Gtab. You use it just like MPLW in that you use it from the live wallpaper chooser. You can set up to nine images to rotate, or use only one and make it static with no transition effects. This one even has it's own image browser so there is no need to even have a gallery installed to use it as far as I can tell. I do still recommend Quick Pic as a gallery app for everyday image duties such as browsing and such.
Works great for me and this is the one that I will be sticking with from here on out unless it starts causing problems in other areas. LOL
Have fun with it ..... HTR
I can't believe that with so many widgets offers I can't seem to find the one that I really need:
A well laid out, elegant, customizable (i.e. transparency) and fully working Bookmarks Widget for the stock browser, stock ROM that is designed to work with a tab, not a phone.
The only promising solution I found was "Bookmarks in a list" but it failed to work properly on my 8.4 device (didn't retrieve the existing bookmarks)
I can't believe I am stuck with those ugly star-banners individual stock widgets.
...Can you guys help?

Try dash clock, there are lots of extension's on play store. Might find one to suit plus all can be made fully transparent. Probably won't help but worth a look.

Android Pro Widgets. It's a paid app but has free themes and you can set transparency amount. Has widgets for calendar, email and social apps too.

This was a good idea. Even more so, since I already paid for it, as I used it some time ago on my previous Galaxy 7.7. I only had to install it.
Unfortunately, it behaves like the "Bookmarks in a list" app: It does not fetch my current bookmarks. Even while making sure that "Stock Browser" is selected in the app configuration page, it fails to correctly do so. It seems to display from a "bookmarks" folder created when I ran "Chrome" for a while.

Dropped a line to the developers about this. Let's see if they come up with a solution.

I use it with Chrome so don't see this problem. Chrome may not be the best browser on Android but I keep going back because of the bookmark sync feature for all devices, regardless of OS. For me, this greatly simplifies managing bookmarks.

Install Chrome. It comes with a resizable widget of its bookmarks, and the bookmarks will open to your default browser, which does not have to be Chrome.
Hi all I have just upgraded to Sense 6 and it seems HTC have removed the live wallpaper that lets you select multiple pictures from the gallery. I loved that wallpaper, is anyone else seeing the same or could someone upload the wallpaper I am referring to?
Thanks.
Yes, it's not there. I still have the old 5.5 ROM backup tough (I used it to restore old Notification sounds) so if you can tell me the name, I can upload it for you.

that is very kind of you. I really can't remember, i know it was in the HTC Live Wallpapers, maybe had the word album or gallery in the title? Why would they remove it, I thought it was excellent...

It is called HTCImageWallpaper.apk - unfortunately it does not work with Sense 6. Probably missing some other resources, so it needs porting.
But just in case, there is the .apk - it can not be installed, bust be placed manually to /system/priv-app

Thanks for the apk. It sucks that it doesn't work, I wouldn't know how to port it so I'm off to play store to find an alternative
Did you find a good alternative? From what I can see, it looks like most of the play store options have some kind of fatal flaw

What features did the HTC one have that put it in such high favor? I've been looking for a good slideshow WP app for a while. These are the best I've found:
Landscape Wallpaper - Good settings. Separate WP for lockscreen. Offers wallpaper scrolling, if desired (good when launcher doesn't support.) Can't choose to update on wake (only time limit), however seems to update on wake after timespan has elapsed.
Wallpaper Changer - Best options for gallery selection. Let's you choose and save custom albums, mixed of folders and individual pics. Can't modify albums. Seems quirky.
MultiPicture Live Wallpaper - Simple, works great. Can set to update with screen awake or even double tap. Supports web albums.

What I liked was the slow pan across each wallpaper before it faded to the next one.
I had a set of wallpapers with the same colours but different designs and it would switch to one, pan across, then fade to the next and pan across... I think the choice of panning left or right was random. It was just a nice behaviour that wasn't distracting but added a little interest, and the fade meant there was no jarring switch from one wallpaper to the next. Also it seemed to have no effect on battery usage,
