Hey guys. I'm still on stock but fully rooted and s-off and cwm. Any idea how to flash the standard lockscreen? Hate the HTC one.

Try to rename htclockscreen.apk to htclockscreen.apk1 in system/app folder. I don't know but maybe you also should rename htclockscreen.odex. And reboot.

You have to change /system/app in root explorer to Mount r/w instead of r/o at the top right. Hope this helps.

And yes, Root, S-OFF and CWM.

Strange. What Rom are you on? Worked for me just renaming lockscreen.apk! Are the names still changed after reboot?

If you change the lock screen does the alarm still work? I remember on the Desire Modaco ROMS if you disabled the HTC lockscreen then the alarm couldn't be disabled without a battery pull.

Bah, I've been wanting to get rid of the HTC lock screen since day 1. I eagely entered "mv htclockscreen.apk htclockscreen.apk1" to be hit with the read only error. Is there a easy way to get write permission in /system/app? The results from Google are rather confusing and I didn't want to enter them directly on the phone with the little keyboard.

If its not changing then the phone is not rooted properly or root explorer doesn't have super user permissions. Open super user and check root explorer is showing in the list. Maybe try running visionary again?

Install root explorer from market. Your phone must be rooted for this to work though. Have you rooted your phone?

Why not do as i did ? Install the lockscreen you want that autostarts and works with your phone, then uninstall the htclockscreen with titanium backup. Works perfect for me and i never have to see that ugly htclockscreen again Im using widgetlocker and i think it's the best out there, nothing even comes close to it, it's well worth the money.

This fixes the alarm problem (and you can turn off the HTC alarm by setting off an alarm with it). No choice of alarm tone though, I did quite like having soothing music wake me up...
And as I discovered last night the screen doesn't time out.

From what I can tell it allows you to type faster by allowing you to put to fingers on the keyboard so when you take the first finger off it will then select the input of the second finger but vibrate on key press dont work but I am running this on a HTC Hero (GSM)

mmm, so I'm not sold. How is this supposed to be faster? I'm still touch-typing, and I can verify that the vibrate-on-touch isn't working.
At any rate, thanks for the extra keyboard option.
this would be the first .apk I couldnt install/uninstall thru sdk. Im getting a Failure [Install_Failed_Already_Exists] when install.
Afterwards I get a Failure when i uninstall.
Then a Failure [Install_Failed_Insufficient_Storage] when i reinstall w/ [-r].
Also permission denied when I "adb shell rm ls data/app/DroidXIME-nonroot.apk"
Also should mention Im not rooted.

Update: MultiTouch keyboard is installed on my phone afterall. It doesn't show up as an app like Swype but you manually select it though settings/language and keyboards.

So I noticed that CM6 Froyo Remix ROM was missing the Genie weather and the customizable Power Control widget. I use only those two widgets on a daily basis and it would be nice if someone could point me in the right direction.
I've already tried Googling and downloading a transparent Genie widget from another site but after installing the widget, my phone had to force close the app maybe because it wasn't compatible?
Anyways, it would be nice if somebody can help me. Thanks in advance!
maybe u can try beautiful widget instead
I've already tried that app and honestly it isn't my cup of tea.
Is it possible to just extract the genie apk from a ROM and install it onto the one I'm currently using?

thats probably because you have to completely uninstall the old one first
go into root explorer or whatever file manage you use and DELETE the newsandweather or geniewidge apk
then reboot, just to be sure

adb push GenieWidget.apk /system/app/GenieWidget.apk
I'm sure majority of the people here already know how to do all this but I'm typing this as a reference in case I flash my phone again.

Luckily i made a backup.

Using root explorer go to /system/app. Then mount r/w. Then rename blurhome2.apk to blurhome2.bak(to be safe) then(this is important) do not leave rootexplorer(you have no launcher currently) find where you have the download for this launch and go to it and click it and install it. That should do the trick.

When I loaded a Quick Contact widget onto the screen it seemed nothing happened. Then I realized they were invisible. I could long-hold (guessing where they were) and drag them to the recycle bin to delete the invisible icons. Weird, huh? Any recommendations on a cool contact widget?
Also, just an observation.. I was dicking with redoing my screen layout and was in landscape mode.. all of a sudden the launcher crashed and just for a few seconds I could see the motoblur launcher. The stock launcher quickly re-started and was working normally again.
By installing through the apk is it possible this launcher is just an overlay? The OP said it would replace the launcher, but I bet that's only during a CWM flash.
...
Because you couldn't get it to work with cwm I am not sure. I actually replace the file on mine. I don't touch the blur stuff. I always work from a fastboot flash, reset and and fresh root.

Scrolling through pages is really unsmooth for me. All stock launchers are like that for me. Obviously LP is butter for me but it seems like none of you have this problem...
All non stock launchers have caused issues for me unless you can actually change kernels and other system files. On CM on my droid Inc and inc 2 it was very easy to swap and it didn't cause issues.

Maybe you have to fix the permissions of both apps via root explorer.
There has to be: rw-r--r--
hmmm..and how do I do that exactly?
Long press on the app -> permissions
You have to stick read read (-) in the first row
write (-) (-) in the second row
and nothing in the third
Than there has to be rw-r--r-- on the right corner of the app

I know I'm going to get crap for this but the attic hd was one of my favorite androids of all time.it was the first phone I rooted and unlocked the bootloader without help, and let me tell you it wasn't easy. So when I saw your post I was elated! Followed your directions to a T and still its not working. I statlrted looking threw the files to see if I could figure it out but this is again my first time trying to use a widget made for ics to 4.4.3 HTC one m8 both rooted and bootloader unloacked. Do you think there is any way to get this moved to the m8? I will be more than willing to help, I am no n00b to android dev. But I would be so greatful. Hit me back here or PM me so I can once again enjoy that brilliant widget, because both of the ones that you can get from the play store just didn't get it quite right.
Thank you for taking the time to take a look.
