Yes you should beable to back up the widgers apk via a app like titanium backup or any app that can backup apps

I dont have root so i will look for another program to do it. thanx for the help, hopefully it works

If your clock program can be moved to the SD card then you can copy it: Install the free ES explorer from the Market. Go to the setting of this program and "Enable up to Root directory". Then press the Up arrow until you see the folder mnt, go to this folder you will see the folder asec. Your clock program will be in one of the folders within asec with a name "pkg.apk". However the icon remains the same so you can recognize it. Copy this program to your sdcard and rename it.

Thanks for the help guys. All i did was back up the app from a program i used and stored that bk up on sdcard, den put thr sdcard into my note and it was their. Wrking great

[Q] Touchwiz Weatherbug widget?

Does anyone know where I can find the weatherbug widget that is a analog clock with the weather on it? I was messing with a friend of mine's Fascinate and she had it on her homescreen.
Would like to find this myself
Here is the .apk but it falls to install... any ideas?
I wonder if the file needs to be re-named
I would love to know...
Looks like there is an odex file as well
I have the odex as well... how do I get this to work?
I believe put them in /data/app. That is where I put buddies now and calendar clock
How do I get there?
R u rooted.
yes sir with cog beta6
If you can post the odex. I'll give it a try
I use root explorer. Set as r/w go to data in system file, go to app and paste there...apk and ode
I had to compress due to forum restrictions... apk and odex are in the rar
Nope. Did not work
well if someone wants to figure it out its all there!
Any DEvs out there have any insight into this. I have tried putting the ODEX and APK into; app/data and system/framework, with no success. Tried to find where the yahoo finance clock is located to drop the files in there but can not find YFC anywhere?
Bump for a possibility?

Guys, they go in /system/app.
Not /data/app or /system/framework.
Place the .apk into the proper folder, reboot, and it should be there. You shouldn't need the odex file, but you can place it in the same directory as the apk if you want.

(App) Transparent Market 2.3.4

Transparent Market 2.3.4
Adb push to /system/app/Vending.apk
Make sure you delete the com.android.vending-1.apk in /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk
You can also flash this if you put it in a flashable zip compatable with your clockwork; just take a zip folder you previously downloaded and delete the app or apps that are in the app folder of the zip and copy the Vending. apk to it and flash.
Here's a link to a buddy o' mine's thread, that has Black transparent facebook, gingerbread keyboards, and such.
The name's Fernando, all his stuff is compatable with the epic you just can't use his flash script, but you can have your own made, or do like I say in post #13
[UPDATE 3/5/11) 2.3.4.1transparent Gmail markets_transparent facebook_ more
Transparent gmail 2.3.4.1
Gmail.apk
Install like the market in the first post
Your my hero, lol, thanks for bringing this to the epic forum. .. also you gmail link is the vending.apk, as soon as that's fixed ill be set.

Works for the ACS Full or Standard Rom. Download and copy the file to the zip folder under /system/app. Copy to SDcard and install, will replace the apk already in the rom.
Awesome!! The market looks so cool. Please fix the link for gmail apk. I can't wait to see that one too. Thank you so much for these

Less Transparent, Inverted Gmail.apk
Hey Deciple -- I've been using a slightly less transparent version of the new Gmail and wanted to share. It makes visibility a little bit easier in the mail screen:
Installation is the same as above: goes in system/app/Gmail.apk
I'm pretty sure the opaqueness (or opacity) in this apk is controlled by a transparentish png.
But here's some screencaps of the Gmail apk you posted versus this more opaque version (on my setup).
Credit goes to the folks at Inversion Conversion on Droidforums, not me.
I think we should have a Transparent/Inverted apps section too, cuz they look soo much better than the stock.
Is there any way to do this with root explorer? Or any chance someone could put these in a zip or a little more instruction of what the op was talking about...adding to a previously flashed zip? Sorry to be such a noob, but I deleted both and can't figure out how to get them back

Ya - you can do it with Root Explorer.
With the Gmail.apk: download it, save to sdcard.
Open Root Explorer, navigate to sdcard
Long-click Gmail.apk, Copy.
back out to root folder, go to system, then app
(this is what I do.. just to create a backup)
Find existing Gmail.apk, rename to Gmail.bak
Paste the new Gmail.apk in that folder.
Find it, Long click, select Permissions
Under "Read" Check all 3, under "Write", Check ONLY user, under "Execute" uncheck all of them.
4 boxes checked, total. So it reads: rw-r--r--
Then exit, reboot if you want, and you should be set.

Once all is running fine, you can move that Gmail.bak over somewhere to your sdcard to reduce space taken up in your /system/app folder.

Hey yeah that looks good man, I personally like the clear glass look, and I use a dark wallpaper too so I have no problem seeing my messages, however you do propose a valid suggestion and I agree that we should have a transparent /Inverted thread.
I can throw some inverts on here .

Ok.........What you do is , If you ever downloaded a flashable zip, that has a market in it or any other app for that matter,that you know is compatable with your version of clockwork, then you open it up with 7zip, then you should see a folder called meta-inf and system. Open the system folder and there should be another folder in there called app. Open that one and delete whatever's in there (after you've presumably copied and saved the entire zip If you want to keep what's inside)and replace it with the app or app's you want to flash.
Awesome Market...... But i have 3 small issues LOL If i knew how to fix them i so would. So i hope you can help :-D
Could u Captalize the "M" in the first pic and change the text to white?

1. +1 I have no green in anything on my phone, white would be great.
2. -1 this is cool its to show you that there is more in the description, fade effect.
3. -1 I think the comment area when you more should be white BG so its easier to read and rarely used.
@Deciple I was wondering if You could make a gmail version same as you have it (Transparent) but make the text another color than green (not a fan of green), Maybe White main text and blue "from" text, just like in the stock Samsung email app.
Managed it problem solved
HELP!!! After i deleted com.android.vending.apk in /data/app/com.android.vending.apk no more market at all. Tryed to flash it and still nothing please help

I like the clear look for these apks. Does the gmail version allow for the automatic download of the pictures in the email?
Is it possible to use these apk in a mdpi 320x480 device like htc magic/mytouch 3g?

[Q] Copying Apps

I have an app on my phone that is no longer on the Market.
If I want to share it with someone else, how do I extract it so that it can be installed on another phone?
I am not trying to copy a "paid for" app. This was a free app that is no longer available.
Thanks!
I would use 'my backup pro'. You could probably use titanium backup as well, but I'm not exactly sure how to extract it with that one.
You'll need root.
Hope this helps...

its a fairly simple process....that im sure someone might answer...but im gonna assume half the people who look here want to steal apps, so ill avoid posting it
system/app
eehhhhhh wrong, data/app if it was downloaded from the market
Look for apk file on phone
search for your the apk file you want in root explorer or file manager and you can email it or upload to whoever you want. I use dropbox.com for pc and download dropbox from market for free I use it all the time 2 gb free space.

[Solved] News and Weather Widget (Genie) - Please help.

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

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!

[REQUEST] Battery Widget APK

Can someone with this phone please do me a favor and snag the sense 2.1 battery widget apk downloaded from personalize > widget > get more HTC widgets > battery. I'm trying to get it running on the HTC Thunderbolt on the gingerbread rom which runs sense 2.1 but it is unable to download widgets from HTC due to the server not responding to the alpha build we're running. Thanks in advance!
If I remember correctly, if you have it downloaded and installed, the file will be in the /data/app folder. Just navigate there with root explorer (or any other file manager) and it'll be called com.rosiebattery or something similar. Thanks again in advance.
Here it is http://db.tt/1xPxIJG.
But next time ask it in general
