[Q] cm7 news app on Nexus ?? - Nexus 7 General

Hello
I use to run ROM CM7 on my rooted Nook color and I really liked the default installed News app that was there was there with cm7.
Now I recently (Christmas) got a Nexus 7 which I really enjoy however I miss that basic News app that was there on cm7. I searched through the default installed apps but that same news app does not seem to be there. Is that a CM specific app? Is there a way to get/install it without rooting/installing CM?

Are you referring to Google Currents?

Do you mean the one that was called News & Weather? I know I used that on my original Droid when I ran CM7. I believe you could probably install it after extracting it from an old ROM. If that doesn't work, let me know because I'm curious.
Edit: also, you won't need to be rooted if you just download a rom that contains the GenieWidget.apk and drag it over to the Nexus and install via any file explorer you want

Yeah thats it, the News and Weather app.
Humm .. I'll see if I can figure out to get the file out of cm7 rom. Thanks.

You mean this one? I thought this was an app on aosp based roms. It's included on Paranoid Android. You may be able to yank it from the rom zip if you want.

genie widget

I thought genie widget was included in the 12-12-2012 dated gapps? At least I recall removing it from my gapps package because I don't like it myself.

Tabr

Just thought I would let anyone using ICS know I have partially ported Tabr widget to work with Icecream Sandwich (Tabr is a scrolling tabbed widget).
Everything I tested works but if you find any bugs let me know!
Still need to polish the widget layout and fix up the settings in a few of the modules...
Get the current dev version here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21587776/tabr-zipped.apk

Very very interested in this... Native scrolling gmail & calendar widgets is my favorite thing about ics.
Edit: how do you install this. I renamed file type to a zip. Won't flash in recovery and wouldn't install as apk.
Edit: I miss the fact its dev version lol. Little out of my reach atm lol.

[KITCHEN ROM] AcidHazardROM Suggestions?

I'm currently taking suggestions for the kitchen.
Currently, I'm adding these features into the next version of BioHazard:
Next Version
Nemus Launcher
"Who Knows When"
Extended Power Menu
Fix incorrect Battery Usage Display
CRT Off Animation
Automatic APNs
Universal Adrenaline Shot BL - Improves Response
V20P Compatibility
Side Kitchen for V20P Optimization
Remove Music Player from Notification bar
Remove Carrier Label from Notification bar
Relocate "Clear" Button in Notification bar
Fix Kernel Flashing
Enable Activation of V6 Supercharger

Dolphin HD
Opera Browser
Firefox
Maxthon
Skyfire
Choice of music players
Stock
DoubleTwist

Cubed Player
Google Play Music
Winamp
Crossed out features have been successfully implemented.
Add your suggestions to this thread! I will do my best to add them all.
DO NOT SEND ME A PM WITH SUGGESTIONS. I will delete them.
Maybe the option for no browser at all?
I'd love an install with the very minimum amount of apps. To me, anything available on the market that's included with a ROM is bloat.
As or more options for the install, Dolphin browser HD is my preferred browser.
The ice cream sandwhich keyboard port is a really nice alternative.
I'll try to think of some more tomorrow.
Good idea taking suggestions!

did you ever look into lock screens bud?
i broke down and got widget lock screen witch is pertty nice only use 8mb ram
A nice 3D launcher would be cool
Sent from my ****ty supported LG Thrill
I didnt use the last Bio because the system was read only.
Dolphin HD is the only browser I use but could care less if you put it in the ROM or not.. I have it backed up on Titanium so I don't need the option to install it...
Swype keyboard is also the only keyboard I use... but again put it on there or don't put it on there... doesn't matter one way or another for me. Thanks for all your good work though... your ROM rocks.
oh i dont have lestatious biohazard yet, but i'm downloading v20c kdz as i type... but i do have a suggestion about the whole swype keyboard thing that was mentioned... in the kitchen can we choose between different swype keyboard themes?

The system isn't read only, yo.
You can either use a root browser to modify it or use the kitchen to mount it as read/write.

If a stock ROM kernel doesn't have init.d support, it will not work period.
Well just installed the Tweakz v6 manually. Not sure if I can tell any big difference yet. I'm about to work on some of the build prop tweaks they have listed in that thread as well...I'll keep you updated.

Awesome. Sounds good.
ATTENTION: V20P will now work with BioHazard.
It will use the stock kernel for it and will not have overclockling or init.d support until another developer adds it.
In short, BioHazard will work on V20P.
you guys keep asking lg for the v20p kernel source then the devs can add overclock back.
Dark Lestat, what about adding this to the ROM? I found this thread about fixing the incorrect battery usage display here:

Ported Samsung Touchwiz ClockPackage.apk v2.4 working on ICS and JB

TouchWiz Stock Clock app
***New Update 22th September 2012***
This is a ported touchwiz clock from the Samsung stock roms. It is tested and working on ICS roms and most Jelly Bean roms. This app has been tested in 240dpi (as it is designed for) and 210dpi, tested in English and French. Any graphical problems you might experience are a direct result to changing the dpi, I will not be accepting requests to change the visual layout of the app because as it is it is completely stock and working perfectly for 240dpi (the intended dpi for this phone)
This app is fully functional except for;
1. the map for the world clock (the world clock is working thought)
2. the popup notification notification that tells you your alarm will go off in X hours and X minutes
3. the color of what you have selected in the snooze options (you will be able to see what is selected in the main alarm screen
apart from these minor details everything else is working. Please do not post to tell me about these things, I already know.
I have added languages from all app versions that I could get my hands on. All the usual languages are included, I have recently included Hebrew and Arabic? as requested. If your language is not supported please tell me, and if possible send me a clockpackage.apk from a stock rom with your language (one that you are sure your language is included in)
This clock app is SGS3 themed where possible. See screenshots below.
I have also included a v2.4 +extras zip, this includes the Samsung digital clock widget (SGS3 themed), the Samsung Accuweather widget with transparent background, the Samsung memo app, and ThinkFree Office app.
If you dont want these extras please use the other zip - v2.4
If I have helped you at all, please hit the thanks button
or feel free to buy me a beer / donate
Please test it before you use it!
I will not be held responsible for people who wake up late and lose their job, or miss a flight, etc.
I wont be held responsible for people bricking their phones by doing dumb stuff, just follow the instructions.
Instructions
Copy to zip file to phone SDcard, reboot into CWM and flash, reboot, enjoy
If you are using a previous version of this clock apk please --> backup and delete the old file (HybridTWClock******.apk) from your /system/app folder and then install the new zip in CWM
If you are using CM9 or CM10 or a rom that already has a clock app (deskclock.apk), please note that you do not need to delete the existing clock app for this one to work, - but if you do delete the existing deskclock.apk this one will still work as a stand alone clock

Cool,
no there's no widget with this app, its just the stock clock from i9000, you might be able to try the 'digitalclock.apk' widget which comes with stock sgs2
http://www.mediafire.com/?b41y76589gw8zv6
I'm not sure if it will work though, I think it needs to be ported too..
I don't use that though, I prefer beautiful widget's superclock, it's the same but with the weather in the same space (same size widget)
Oww...and it looks like crap in landscape. ... but its nice that it has the timer. I use it sometimes in the kitchen. Hehe. You guys know other ported cool apps ?

Hey, sorry I haven't been back to this post for a while...
I've updated the OP with a new version which fixed the graphical problems of the previous versions, I've also added languages and other things. I have also included a ported version of the Samsung Galaxy 'My Files' app, this will let you choose your own mp3 or other sounds files for alarm tones.
Can someone please test it for me? as I don't have a Nexus S..

for the extras pack, you will need to make sure that you have enough space on the phone too, I am using cm10 and I had to delete some stuff to make space, I deleted the trebuchet launcher and the latinIME keyboard, as I use apex launcher and swype keyboard which take up much less space, that way I was able to free up some more space

Can you see them in the /system/app folder?
Are they the right size files? I mean the same size files as you see in the zip?
If that is the case maybe they aren't working on the Nexus S, I can't see why not though, it is basically the same phone as the i9000 and the touchwiz dependencies are removed too

Yes, it should work on any phone.
If the CWM zip file doesn't work for you you can install the files manually to where they need to be in the /system/app and /system/media folders and then fix permissions and reboot.
However the screen layout is setup for 240dpi phones, I am running it on my i9000 under 210dpi and it works fine too. Let me know how it goes?
OK I'm using the sensation as you can see I'll let you know

Stuck in boot animation
Hi
My Phone is stuck on boot animation and doesn't start into the ROM after I uninstalled the old gmail from Tibu.
The earlier gmail was an inverted one from other place.
Could there be any issue in uninstalling the systtm app from Titanium backup that could be causing this issue?
Any help and ideas ???.
My info is:
Samsung sgs2
resurrection ROM 3.1.2 as secondary ROM. default boot into secondary rom.
Paranoid android as primary rom. not default
dorimanx kernel latest 7.29
I used a previous inverted gmail & uninstalled with TB without any issues. love this, but the Blue clashes with my theme

I tried both 4.2 versions and they don't seem to actually be 4.2, no pinch to zoom.
Opened email is still white background. I'm wondering if its possible to invert this as well.
Edit: I had been using a "conventional format" version that had settings defaulted to allow zoom and did not investigate carefully enlugh before posting. Sorry all.
I am still curious about having email text inverted as well.

Yes, but their inverted versions are much different from this one. I like the blue color accents and much prefer this version over theirs.
updates ?
I presume, that this apk will not be updated through PlayStore, right ?
So does anyone will have an eye on regulary updating this apk when possible/necessary ?
Though it's a great stuff - thanks for developing/ posting !
Fully agree. I have install this apk but play store indicate and update to 4.2.1.
Could someone update please.
Thanks
Great app! Nicely done!!

[Q] Help with Ultimate Rom v6 widgets and apps

Hi
If anyone can help with this I would be very grateful, I have two N7000's. One is loaded with Ultimate Rom and the other with Carbon Rom. I really liked some of the features of the Ultimate Rom that are not present on Carbon Rom.
The first is the widgets Ultimate Rom came with, I really like the music player widget and I can't find this anywhere on the Android market, does anyone know what it is called or know where a link to the APK can be found? Same goes for the stock weather/clock widget.
Secondly I know the framework for TW is different but is there anyway to get the SNote, SPlanner and screen shot functions to work with Carbon Rom? If not are there any decents alternatives?
Any help would really be appreciated
Thanks
For all the Samsung widgets to run, you will need tw launcher and framework installed. It does work on cm as well if you install the tw launcher. Search for it you will get a flashable zip. Make sure to make a backup before.
