Desire News Widget - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Although I love the way sense UI feels, I decided to go with froyo, and will stay with stock android until somebody ports sense to 2.2 . However, I really like the news widget that sense UI has. I've looked and found the apk, here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6447678&postcount=10, but it doesn't install correctly. Can anybody help me figure out what's wrong or direct me to a working solution? Thanks!!

Before someone rips you a new one for not searching the forum, ill answer your question.
Simply... no. All sense widgets rely on the sense UI framework which cannot be ported over to a normal nexus one rom. So any widget seen on a desire rom cannot be ported over... period. Sorry bro

Laaame. Anyone know of a full page news widget similar to that of sense?

I dunno about a full page one, but NewsRoom is really nice.

HTC/Sense Applications?

Hey I'm curious as I know Sense widgets are only available with the HTC Sense launcher... but what about applications that come with it as well such as their Desk Clock application? Is this compatible on other non sense roms?
I'm trying to move myself off Desire roms because of incompatibilities, at first I missed the widgets but pure messenger, fancy widget etc have helped me there. But I still can't find anything nearly as polished as their Desk Clock application.. or just how much better the htc calculator looks compared to the stock!
Bump. Nobody know? Should I post in different General or Themes?
Calculator works, but the sense applications are framework dependent.

I haven't seen anybody ask that before...I always see about the widgets though.
Although now I remember that from when I had Desire rom seeing all the images from their applications in the framework...

[Q] Best Froyo ROM with Sense or Sense like theme for G1?

Hi, im really sorry for the noob question but I was wondering if someone ( with trial and experience) knows the best STABLE Froyo Rom with htc sense for G1, I have seen few Roms with their own little additions and twists or maybe just the clock and home screen jump feature, even that would be fine, but since Im new I thought it would be easier to ask others for they fav sense or sense like ROM out there. thanks

Does anyone know if there is a HTC Sense LWP port?

That HTC Sense Live Wallpaper is amazing, any ports of it to Galaxy S? It won't run when I try.
Thanks!
I don't think there is. if I'm wrong someone should def hook it up with a link. lol
I know they are actively trying to port Sense (as in the whole thing) to the Captivate but have hit some roadblocks.
If it's just a live wallpaper.. maybe someone in the HTC forums will be kind enough to give you the .apk for it?
But... like everything Sense related it is probably not a standard application and completely proprietary.
Yeah, it needs the framework. But I tried porting that, still doesn't run. Somehow they managed to port it to the Nexus One CyanogenMod ROM, but that APK doesn't work for the Galaxy S.

Quick Question regarding APKs

Hey I was just wondering why this does not work .
Why can I not cross use different apks from different roms .
I am using Ice cold sandwich atm and the Camera application sucks on it , half the stuff doesn't work so I am forced to use a third party application.
I tried to access the app folder inside the "system.ext3.tar" which was found in one of my backup roms . ---> Created with CW MOD
I basically tried to take the working camera application and install it on my current rom but it crashes on startup, how do you actually go about doing stuff like this? What are the requirements ?
I just dont get why it does not work
I also hate the clock APK in the rom it does not have a world clock which I really need. I tried to again take the World Clock apk from another rom and it did not even install.
They were all from different icecream sandwiches but with sense 4 , the rom I am using does not have sense but I dont see how that would really affect this
Can someone explain to me how to cross use APK system files ?:good::good:
I believe you can't cross sense with aosp and aokp. If you want sense apps to work then port to a sense Rom. Your trying to put a square peg in a triangle hole.

I cannor really explain it, but I know for sure that u can't use apk-files from sense or touchwhiz and use them on AOKP ROMs. It's just not possible. Same thing for widgets...

I don't think it would be *sense*
It hasn't been taken from a HTC rom, its just a clock thats themed to look like sense
like themed
A themed AOKP rom to look like sense is not a sense rom

I see thanks for all your help guys and if anyone can explain to me the technical aspect of not being able to cross APKS due to AOSP and AOKP
I am just curious as to the limiting factor

HTC apps require HTC framework and other HTC apps in order to work
So without the other apps, just come of them won't work
Most apps from other Roms, like Sony Ericsson and miui Roms will work, I have some of them
I think just Samsung and HTC apps won't work
But Samsung apps can be hacked

There are dependency on HTC framework for sense APk,thus causing sense apk not working at aosp/aopk rom.

[Q] Questions about Sense flip clock and theming the notification bar.

Hey guys,
I really love the HTC One and Sense 5 but I would love to see some changes to it.
I like Sense 5 but I don't bother switching to a GE Rom. However, I would love the HTC One Flip clock
as a widget on Nova. Not a fake one like HD Widgets but the real deal.
Also, Is it possible to change/theme/mod the notification bar to the Stock android one, we can't just like install a theme and install it like on devices like the Galaxy Nexus I used to have.
Anyone know if this is possible? I could'nt find any thing similar on xda to answer my questions..
Thanks in advance!

Im currently using Viper rom. It has a fantastic themed sense 5 clock in black and red.
Ive also used a Beautiful widget Sense 4 style clock, and it looks spot on.
The Sense flip clock, can only be used on Sense, and I take it this is what you mean when you say HTC One flip clock.
My current set up with out a flip clock. Which is not normal for me. As like you, I love the original Sense 4, or 5 Flip clock
