Database Develop

Weather Widget now has a Hero-style flip clock :D

http://lock2.wordpress.com/ My favorite weather widget gets even better

thanks for the heads up i been looking for this

He did a really good job on this, i've been using his weather app donation version for awhile and the flip clock looks just like it does on hero or as close as you can really get.. really good dev graphics wise. I'm more we'll see more imitation hero widgets to come.

Screenshots and Comparisson.
Can you guess the fake

The top one is from this, the bottom's from Hero. The H/L gives it away.

forgive me for asking... but do I need to run open home for this widget?

I've been sitting up wondering the same thing. I went to the website and didn't know the first thing to do. And if I get openhome, nothing won't happen to my current theme will it?

i want this thinggggg = [
i dnt have the apk though

i was also wondering the same.. how do you get this widget working? does it needs openhome?

It's a widget...You download it, long press screen...and press widgets and add it

but where do you download it from? is it available in the market? i searched in the market and there are so many weather widgets out there. can you give the name of the widget or a link to download it?

Just search for weather widget. It's from android apps. The donate version is the one with the Hero style clock. Costs 1.49

Right I've found it on Market Place...... do a search for "weather widget - donate"
Oh and other than http://lock2.wordpress.com/ does anyone else know of a support forum / site? I only because its refusing to show current weather icon for my city

and the numbers Dont flip down like the Heros but just change...oh well cant be too picky....

I have an interesting issue with this app. I can't install it. It downloads, installs then throws up a "Insufficient Storage" error. I still have over 800 megs left on my ext3 partition and 82 megs left on the phone. I can download and install everything else from the market except this one. Anyone ever seen this before?

Best widget available!
Now I don't have to bother with that cumbersome Hero ROM.

not sure how to solve that, I've had it before, but a workaround is to directly push the file to where ever your app folder is... =/

[APP] 3D Launcher Port v.1.0 [CLOSED]

THIS WAS A REVERSE ENGINEERED Launcher from another tablet.... I have not seen any new versions uploaded so unfortunately I can not fix any of the problems.... I am asking the MODS to CLOSE this THREAD... it is causing too many issues.
CHECK OUT MY VTL.LAUNCHER .... ACTIVELY DEVELOPED FROM SOURCE CODE!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12710589
############################################################################
Here is a port of a 3D Launcher from another Tegra Tablet. It has been ported and formatted to work on our G-Tablets. Unfortunately there isn't much I can do with the icons on the launcher bar. I have set them to launch either stock apps or the included 3D apps depending on what was available. You can't change the apps that are launched by the launcher bar either. The First TIME you launch it it will take a minute to Load as it creates it's own cache files.
3D Launcher Port v.1.0:
http://vegantab.gojimi.com/download/3D.Launcher.1.0.zip
This is in an update.zip format flash it like you would ROM in CWM.

First off thanks for posting this, it looks sweet and I can't wait to try it. I will try this uninstall method later and let you know if it works. Worst case scenario I should be able to restore a backup or flash a fresh rom through CW?

or I can walk you through a manual uninstall or fix the uninstaller.... nothing gets *modified* to system... just added so it is pretty easy to remove.

Installed over stock TNT... will play with and inform back...

Everything seems to work great over stock TNT except for the music player, it FC everytime I click it. May be linked to a wrong location, not sure...
Clicking on programs brings you to a "3d" list of all your programs, of course, but pretty cool...
Easy to change RSS feeds and weather locations...
Not sure if you can add you own widgets to the carousel. Will continue to play.

Works great and runs smooth. Just wish it had more 3d Widgets for it. Great work on the port. Also for those looking to uninstall it. You can do so through TIBU.

This launcher is sweet!!!! Thanks to whom ever ported this!

Thanks Gojimi very nice launcher.
Quick question though.. Is it possible to have multiple home screens thru this launcher? And if we can get any widegts on there like for tapatalk pulse facebook etc.
Thanks once again.

pretty cool! not sure i can use it full time, but its cool looking. if it were customizable wed be in business!

Installed this last night on TNT Lite 3.1.4. Works, but weather is not working to access my towns weather, music player does FC every-time, and It says Vegan Tab in the background, hopefully that can change, if only i knew how to program! It works, but not sure if the lack of customizations, and small issues are worth it! But i will say this, this launcher makes this tablet look more and more like a tablet and not an oversized phone!
Thanks

Any body can prepare apk file for this launcher?

the launcher is a series of apk files so i think you need to stick with the provided update.zip format.

any news on any updates to this launcher, as stated before, i am having trouble with the weather portion. When i select my city, it gives me a satellite picture (like wifi problem), and the news portion will not allow me to delete bbc news.....is this maybe due to the fact that it was designed to work with Vegan?

I'm getting an error message about com.brogent.service has stopped since installing 3D launcher. Tried to clear data but that did not help.

anybody tried this with Archos 70 internat tablet ?

Hi,
Try Gesture Search from google, with a gesture you can search in whole phone...
Bye
Idk

Go to Settings > Search > Searchable items. Check all that applies. Then just press the Search touch button.

yeah my google search box doesnt pick up contacts either, even though they are selected as searchable items i have to tap the g icon and select people for it to search my contatcs, rather annoying to tell the truth

Am I suggesting something blazingly obvious when I say "press the search button on the front of the phone"?
When I press that and then start typing it looks through everything. Contacts, social networks, tweets, emails, apps, settings, calendar, recent searches etc
Works fine for me, and means you don't need a widget for it either!

um, yeah, i always use the search capacitive button to invoke search its just that for some reason it doesnt search contacts even though people is sleceted under searchable items, i have to manually change it to search people only. it could be something to do with the fact that i am using adw launcher instead of sense.

The search "button" on my phone searches contacts, just tested it now.

its probably a rom issue then as you are running a different one to me. i'm on stock sense at the mo with adwex on top. was running oxygen and miui on my old desire but didnt like miui when i tried it on the dhd so waiting for cm7 at the mo

Yeah, deffo sounds like a ROM thing as I just asked a friend at work with a DHD to check and he can search his contacts too. His is 100% stock.
I do recommend Android Revolution ROM if you get bored waiting for a decent CM7 build

cheers, i'm going to have a look at android revolution now

Cool
I highly recommend Android Revolution HD 2.0.6 non-OC version.
There's currently a few problems with the OC kernal version (YouTube and video playback is broken for some) but the non-OC version is blazing fast anyway and I'm sure it wont be long before Mike (the ROMs dev) fixes those small issues.

awesome, i'm going to give it a try when i get back from work, did you flash the new radio that he recommends?
also how necessary did you find a full wipe with this coming from stock?

Yeah, I flashed the latest radio last week when still on AR 2.0.3 and it's seems like a good one.
I did a full wipe with the tool provided in the thread when going from stock to AR 2.0.3. I learned from my time with my old HTC Hero that it's usually always best to wipe unless updating the same ROM from one version to another, even then sometimes a wipe is still needed. It usually states in the change log of each ROM though, but in your case I'd definitely do it.
It's an effort if you have loads of apps and want to keep various settings etc, but this is when Titanium Back-Up and Google contacts sync saves the day

Android Market Update comes with Tablet Tweaks

[Update: Screenshots below]
I just installed the latest update for Android Market (was v3.0.27 now v3.1.3).
First things I checked out were the Announced +1 buttons and PIN lock for Purchases features but I've noticed something else interesting.
First thing I noticed was that everything is slightly bigger (My PixelDensity is the same as before the update). Next thing I noticed is when I went to the Apps section, is that the Categories now Pull out into a Side-Pane instead of their own screen. But the most interesting thing I noticed is that instead of getting the "Staff Picks" screen, I get "Staff Picks for Tablets". To me it seems the App Market now detects your screen size and adjusts some things accordingly.
This can be a Good thing and a Bad thing. Good because tablet designed Apps(including the Market UI tweaks) do look better on the Nook's screen but also Bad because it could alow Google to adjust things depending on Device even more, ie: certain phone apps might only show up on "Phone sized" screens.
What do you guys think of the new Market Update(v3.1.3)?

Here's the Fix.
If you don't see "Movies" category or the "Videos" app in the New Market here's a Fix.
NOTE: DO NOT USE IF USING OLD MARKET!!
If you have issues return it back to 161!
Root Explorer Method
1. Clear Market data in Application Info
2. Navigate to System folder in Root Explorer and "Mount R/W"
3. Long-press build.prop and "Open in Text Editor"
4. Find "qemu.sf.lcd_density=161" or "ro.sf.lcd_density=161" and change it to 160
5. Reboot
6. Run Market
File Expert Method
1. Clear Market data in Application Info
2. Navigate to /System folder in File Expert
3. Menu-->More-->Mount-->Mount as ReadWrite
4. Copy build.prop to sdcard
5. Press build.prop, Open as Text, Select a Text Editor
6. Find "qemu.sf.lcd_density=161" or "ro.sf.lcd_density=161" and change it to 160, now Save
7. Copy build.prop back to /System, Overwrite when asked
8. Reboot
9. Run Market
If it doesn't work try Clearing the Market data again.
This should allow you to see most missing Apps and Access the Movies category.
If you lose Movies in the Future just Clear the Market data and it'll work again.

Does this "fix" also deal with the issue that some of your installed apps don't show up in the Market's Update queue when they have updates available?

...to a different problem. The issue with My Apps is the reason CM7 defaults to 161 in the first place, and only applies to those who have already applied the 160 dpi fix. In a CM7 NC set to 160 dpi, My Apps will eventually display only a white space, requiring us go to the Market's App Info and hit Clear Data again.
AFAIK, we're more likely to see a fix for the limited market than for the My Apps issue.
One thing many people seem to miss: any app's individual App Manager page is accessible by longpressing the app shortcut and choosing App Info.

Japzone, you're doing people a disservice by failing to mention that the fix does not persist once the market app does its data update, which occurs at least once a day.
Edit: damn, once again, ninja'ed by the lizard...

I know about the Icon long-press shortcut but the app screen sits on scanning for awhile, instead I pull-up Titanium Backup as it's usually quicker.
Now concerning the Market My App issues with 160dpi, personally I'd rather deal with the occasional data wipe then the Oversized UI of 240dpi but that's me. Sorry if I seemed misleading.

Downloaded images wont appear in Gallery

Randomly now whenever I download an image off the internet or export and image from dropbox to my SDCard, the gallery doesn't see it there. I can see it in the camera app in the little box, but i press on that box and its not there. I tried clearing gallery data, media storage, and using scanmedia to see if it can pick up the images but never does. They are there in my SDCard. Tried putting them in the DCIM 100MEDIA folder and the downloads folder and just doesn't work. It'll recognize pictures I take with the camera and put it in the app but never anything downloaded. I'm not rooted by the way. What could cause this?! D:

I was able to download another gallery app and see the images but still can't see them in regular gallery app and camera. :/ Probably just gonna do a reset. Heavily debating in rooting and installing a custom ROM as well but I promised my self that I'd wait a month before rooting.

Restart your phone and see if the images appear in the gallery.
If they do, then it's an issue with Android's media scanner not triggering.
Try this app to request the media scanner to trigger an update.

Pictures I download or save from web pages appear in the stock gallery app under "All downloads" in Album view.
If you don't have "All downloads" in Album view, tap on the 3-dot icon (menu) and select "Show/hide albums" and check "All downloads".

Tried it all guys. Gallery doesnt see any of the recent images I've added to "All Downloads" but when I use quickpick and enter the All Downloads folder they are there. Of course I tried going in to system/app and installing HTCAlbum.apk (Would try and it would say its a system app and all previous data will be saved but afterwards says app not installed), and it didn't work and now my phone says gallery isn't installed. >.> Guess resetting it will be the best choice.

Have you tried clearing data for the gallery app? Settings>Apps>All>Gallery, scroll down & clear data.

Glad on not the only one. I don't mind resetting but I really want to know why so I don't make the same mistake again. I can't imagine anything I did would cause it but maybe application did it. Don't have any apps downloaded that messed with the gallery though.
