2.1 .APK file links

I would like to start a thread that can be a hub for the new 2.1 .APK files that are usable on the Eris.
I have tried the current live wallpapers and will install but they are not visible.
Here is a link to the WeatherGenie from Nexus 1. http://download887.mediafire.com/iwj7jx90ftvg/xmtwizbmm3m/GenieWidget.apk
Here is the same app but transparent, you need to uninstall the regular one for it to work. http://sites.google.com/site/droidlife3/home/GenieWidget-transparent.apk?attredirects=0
Add anything to this list you know will work.
Please test before you post the .apk

Some more interesting APK from the Desire we could use? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=642189 From what I am seeing there maybe the update copy and paste included.

Are these tested? Please only tested .apks that we know will work on the Eris. Thank You!

I tested the gallery app. It works, unless you tilt the phone horizontal, then the screen goes crazy until you tilt back vertically.
I tested the music app. It works fine.
I installed and ran the clock app, I didn't like it as much as the HTC clock app, so I uninstalled it (it seemed to work fine)
I did not try either launcher.

I believe these are the extra HTC widgets we can't directly D/L fromthe HTC widget placer thingy.

I think that is it.

I got battery and dice in the marketplace 2.1 just like I did in 1.5.

Thought I would make it easy.

This one definitely does not work. Causes FC loop which requires some Home-button-timing to get out of.

This works, but is very slow, and breaks in landscape mode. (Not FC-breaks, but massive-distortion-breaks.

Again, FC loop. No leads on the cause, I'll fire up ADB later and try to track this down.

I posted this in the wrong spot sorry. Do not post in here but instead I will start one in the correct section. Closed.

Launcher2 works perfectly for me, on my Eris, but mine is leaked 2.1, so that might be the reason.

Most people are running the "leaked" 2.1 rom on this forum and seem to not have it working... Me included, did you do anything to get it to load? and where did you DL it from?

@Allow:
how are you testing it?
I ask because I too have installed the leaked 2.1 (as has everyone who has 2.1 on an Eris) and I get the FC loop when I click the home button and choose to use Launcher for the action.

OR maybe im completely wrong here and you may very well be that 1%.
got pics to prove you have it working?

I am also getting the looping and I am running 2.1.

Omg. People pease try reading around. Launcher2 will not load. The guy that said that is either a newbie that doesn't know what launcher2 is or just likes drama. Of course with screenshot plus video I will apologize. But I have logcats from trying to load launcher2 that looks for lib files we can't add with out root

With a total of 4 post in XDA I am going to have to say that the guy is both but then again I have been surprised before maybe hes discovered how to root the the Eris

The music app is the only one that fully works and it's not much better than the leaked 2.1 eris' music app. The clock wont do fahrenheit or bring up my location at all. This thread is a complete fail.

3d gallery

Just a quick post, wife wanted picasa sync on her slide so I pulled the 3dgallery from my nexus and installed in on her slide, works pretty good except 1 of her picasa folders has 1000 photos in it, that seems to slow down the slide loading it, her other folders with less seem to load right up pretty quickly.
Didnt know if anyone else was interested in it so figured I would post that it worked.

Cool
Cool, would it be possible to post the File, I would like to check it out...Thanks

sure, I just did a quick google search for it as I wasnt sure if it could be posted here..should be able to but wasnt sure..anyways I found where they also did it for the droid, just follow his video and your all set.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTnAdWYNPbI

Thanks for the info,however after installing and trying it runs just as slow on the slide as it does on the 2.1 ports for g1 and mt3g.don't know how it loads on nexus one but the regular gallery is fine for me so I'm going to unninstall but its nice to know we can use this if we choose.

dont uninstall it yet, give it time to load and honestly it gets faster..I assumed it was cause she had a gaint folder, but it was slow for the first several minutes

Thanks I loaded and it runs fine on my slide

Hey thanks for the info, Just installed it and like everything else it is flying alone fine for me even with 1000+ pictures. I got to say this phone just gets better every day.

i installed 3dgallery the first day. if it does slow to a crawl, kill all nsed apps or restart the phone and it will fly.

so i installed the 3D gallery but for some reason it didn't replace the 2d gallery and now it wont uninstall either of them. Any solutions to that?

hope sum1 has a solution!

Working flawlessly on my slide

think you need to be rooted if you arent.
if you are then you can just "adb pull Gallery3d.apk" then , if you want it to replace the regular gallery, rename Gallery3d to "Gallery.apk" then install the app again, and it should upgrade the previous gallery to gallery3d

has anybody gotten this version of the gallery to work on the slide? is it more stable than the fixed camera 3d gallery posted in this thread?

Yes this one.. Can nobody Extract the APK from the Tab? the root is allready out.

Has a ruu or dump been released? As far as I know there hasn't been one. Ask over at the Galaxy Tab forums for someone to send it.
Only problem I can think of is that its a Samsung widget. No Samsung widgets have been ported to same res devices as of yet, let alone a GTab res to ours :/

I don't know for sure but I think that might only work with the TouchWiz launcher that is on the Samsung phones. I don't know if it would be as simple as installing an apk. Like how you can't use Sense apps on non-sense ROMs.

very-very useful widget and application!

If you want you can give my application a try. It's designed to be the same functionality as the original or even better. Still in beta though
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=900918

It really is a great widget and one of my favorite things about Samsung. I wish it were available for other devices.
For what it's worth, the widget is called "Program Monitor" and the icon in the Shortcuts menu looks nothing like the widget itself.

[Q] Where is the wallpaper store?

I have used to backup & restore ADW launcher settings, however, I never know it don't backup the wallpaper, I have had this wallpaper but now I lost it by replacing another ugly one, now I want to find it out from the system partition after root, but no found, anyone know where is the wallpaper caching path? Or anyone know where can I get this wallpaper again? thanks for any advise!
Sorry for that I can't post the URL here, please check!

[Q] Replace Stock Gallery App with Quickpic?

I really dislike the default Samsung gallery app and I'm wondering if there's a way to specifically make it so Quickpic can be accessed through the stock camera app by pressing the preview button in the top left corner. Freezing/disabling the Gallery app does NOT prompt you to select a default gallery app when pressing the preview button.
Instead, it prompts this message:
(Because I can't post links to external images, see the first attachment.)
I should probably add that there are no permissions for gallery to open as the default gallery, so that's not the issue. (Quickpic is set as the default).
(Because I can't post links to external images, see the second attachment.)
Is there any possible way to get the stock camera app to use Quickpic as the default gallery? I'm rooted with no custom ROMs, just default TouchWiz.
Thanks in advance!

Nope

I'm sure he would've preferred that answer when the last reply in this thread was made.
A year ago.
Please don't revive old, dead threads.

I'm not posting this for the sake of OP, I'm posting it for anybody who asks the same question, gets directed to this topic by google, and gets disappointed by the NO answer - while in reality the answer is YES it's possible.
And by the way I've had the same question several years ago, when I had a Samsung Galaxy S, then again more than a year ago, when I got an S3. Didn't hear about Xposed then, so I just accepted "it's not possible" as an answer. So even a year later, the answer is still relevant and might be useful.

Unfortunately, I couldn't get it to work with my SGS3. From my understanding you should uninstall/freeze the default gallery app and next time you try to open the gallery from the Camera app, the phone should ask which app should be used to view the picture.

I tried freezing. It won"t work either. My problem is getting to albums from the Contacts app, when I need to add a picture to a contact. If I freeze the Gallery there will be no Image option in the Contact Photo window opened for selection of the photo source for a contact. It means I cannot get into my albums for photo selection. And since my contacts photo album is organized by name, I am having hard times when looking for a right photo for my contacts. QuickPic could solve this...
Don"t understand how this so basic and obvious feature is missing in such a complex and long time running on millions devices OS?

I feel your pain, I have similar idea. But maybe the blame is misdirected, the Contacts app comes from Samsung, doesn't it? They made some of their apps too tightly integrated with each other, not giving the user the flexibility to choose the gallery app. I'm planning to try another ROM (e.g. CyanogenMod) to get a look at the pure Android experience.
