Widgets won't update?

I've been having a problem with my widgets updating, just started yesterday. I'm using adw launcher, and the only thing that's changed in the last few days was that I uninstalled atk. Anyone else had this problem? I'd really like for my clock to work.

are you using Beautiful Widgets?
I use LauncherPro and I recently just noticed this with beautiful widgets...
My Facebook widget updates just fine. As does my FlightTrack widget.

it's annoying how you can't use the touchwiz feeds and updates widget on the adw launcher. Would be so much nicer!

I'm using Digital Clock Widget, but it's not just the clock. My tunewiki won't change (though the button presses register) and BatteryLife still says 100%.

odd. I updated my beautiful widgets app and now my clock widget is working fine again.
Maybe it's the app. Or maybe it's something a simple reboot can fix.

Already rebooted twice, doesn't help. I'll reinstall the widgets, I suppose, and if that doesn't fix it, I'll do adw as well.

So I changed over to Launcher Pro to see if that fixes it, and it did. I really like ADW launcher better, but I figure I'll wait until a new update rolls out to grab it again. I miss the ability to assign the swipes on the screen to stuff (specifically the notification bar so I can hide it), and just swiping on the dock is not as useful. But widgets working is more important, frankly.

Stop using a task killer and you should be just fine. Had the same problem.

i just uninstalled my task killer and that did the trick. now i just use the built-in process/app killer when needed.

Actually, it seems that stopping using a task killer is what caused the problem. I had ATK on there for 2 weeks, no problems, uninstalled because I really didn't need it, and that's when the problems started. I certainly won't be putting it back on, that's for sure.

I had the similar issues with beautiful widgets and awd, and I thought it might've been my juice defender since it disables the data while the phone sleeps. But when I uninstalled juice defender (didn't really notice the difference in battery life with or without it) I was still having the issues. So I switched back to LP and widgets are updating properly so far.

Launcher problem

I'm running nero v3 with voodoo, and having a weird issue. Don't believe it's the rom though. Anyway, I've noticed I now have a program called launcher running when I go to task manager, and if I close it, all my icons on my maun page disappear, and it loads the stock icons. Even with a reboot, it boots the stock icons. It's a pain because I have to put my icons back. Any idea what's going on?

You should always have some sort of "launcher' running. Thats what controls the app drawer and everything else. Dont kill it.

Yeah, but it wasn't running when I first instilled the rom. I trend to close things with task manager, and I sometimes accidentally close it. Is there a way to get back my icons if I do?

Do you mean you have customized icons instead of he stock ones?
You should always have a launcher active.

No, I just mean I place beautiful widgets, and all the icons I normally use, and when I accidentally close launcher, all icons I placed on my desktop are gone, and I have to place them all back. It's a pain. I know I should just not kill the launcher, but I accidentally close it when I close other programs.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Okay, now my icons come back when I close launcher. Weird, but just glad I don't have to place them again.

If you only have one launcher and kill it with tasker operations on launcher will forced to start again. Install backup launcher with your widgets as well ; )
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Launcher is like touchwiz. It is the interface. If you kill it it wilk have to start again and takes more battery.
Nero v3 does not have tw unless you dl that version.
So you are not allowing the interface controlling your os to be there. Your essentially killing the controls to ur phone.

EVO 4G Stock clock

I am running Myns TwoPointTwo RLS5 with 2.6.32.17 Kernel. I love this ROM. Is there any way that I can get the apk for the stock clock. The reason I liked the stock clock is that I can set the alarm, timer etc. Can somebody post the stock clock apk?
Thanks

Doesn't Myns have the stock clock app? It does for me..
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I could not find it. I looked in the applications could not find it. I also went to the /system/app and could not see any clock application. The only one I found was htcClockWidget.apk and I tried to install it, but got an error message saying that the application could not be installed.

FWIW, I have the stock clock with Myn's twopointtwo, also.

Isn't the stock clock part of Sense? I'm pretty sure you need to add it as a widget if that's a Sense ROM.

Have you changed from the stock lock screen to an AOSP lockscreen? If so, that's your problem. Most aosp lockscreens remove the HTC clock when you install them, because the aosp lock screen breaks the alarm function of the HTC clock. Perhaps that's the problem? Did u change lockscreens?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Yes I did. I changed to the AOSP Vannila lock screen. If that's the reason, is there anyway I can revert back the lock screen?

The easiest way would be to reflash the rom. Just wipe cache and dalvik cache, then reflash the rom. You could also just reinstall Myns htc lockscreen, then reinstall the clock app as well. Probably just easier to reflash the rom though.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Thanks for the info. Where can I find the clock app apk?

If you don't want to reflash, here's the lockscreen/world clock apk's, but I don't think this lockscreen is the same as Myn's. I believe it's the Vaelpak lockscreen but I could be mistaken.

Thanks nhutpham. I will try this and let you know.

Thanks. I just re-flashed the ROM and it is working fine now. One more question. When I am talking to some one on the phone, I should be able to browse the internet too right? But for some reason I cannot do that. I am on the 3G network.

Not to hi-jack but on a similar topic, what needs to be done to add back in the clock widgets? I'm running A Virusrom right now; the clock apk works great, I'd just like the widget back.... mainly the 2x1 one

Any suggestions on a Kernal with Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo (RLS 5)
I am running 2.6.32.17 and am looking for a kernal that will over/under clock and provide more power to run my phone more smooth. I have an extended battery so I am less concerned with battery life than I am a powerful kernal. Has anyone had success with Set CPU? I have heard pro's and con's with my Sprint Evo. There are so many kernal's and I don't know where to begin? I don't even know if they are all compatible with Myn (RLS 5). Thanks for the help and sorry to reply to this post, I haven't figured out how to make a new post

Please do dome research. All the information you. Red can be found on this site and the internet. Do yourself a favor and learn something about your phone before you ruin it and come back crying on the forums.

Rem3Dy - why do you even reply with useless information? I will be sure to "Red" some information.

(Hint) Touchwhiz Launcher

I don't know if anyone has posted this but I found a little trick that made me say "well duh that makes sense."
So I actually like the touchehiz launcher but was having a tough time keeping my apps straight with the new 2.3.3 version as it only allows an editable grid or alphabetical list. I tried adding an old modded version but got a force close. When I restored all my apps were alphabetical in a grid view again. I went about moving the apps around and then went to settings/application/all and cleared the data of TWLauncher and my apps are again alphabetical.
The downfall of doing this is you lose your Widgets but after awhile its the easiest way to clean up the app drawer.

Dude I know a lot of new people here will be delighted to know that but that has been known since anyone posted about wanting to rearrange apps in apps drawer. Nice though that you have the courage to post it again.

Well I may have just forgotten since I've become so accustomed to the modded tw launcher and know that we don't yet have a modded version for GB. I'm sure there is more than one or two frustrated trying to keep all their apps in order right now.

Go dig yourself a hole under that ungrateful bridge of yours.

Well know one, but the best method is download an app in market which can sort the Twlauncher in alphabetical order without cleaning the widget together.
It is call TouchWiz Application Sorter

Okay, I'll calm down... Thanks, in advance...
(Someone have any chocolate for me? That will calm me down... Yeah right!)

Coming Soon

p3droid made it available in the Team BlackHat app over at mydroidworld.
For those who want to know.

EC07 is from TeamBlackHat, if you feel like getting it immediately and having a stock phone, then go for it and spend the $2 for the app to download it. Otherwise, wait another day or two and we'll have deodexed, pre-rooted, and debloated versions for you to flash.
Based on the upgrade to 2.2.2, I'm thinking that this is roughly equivalent to ED05 for the Fascinate.

Okay, okay, okay... Sorry I became a little over excited.
In all reality, I really appreciate all that you, trailblazer, pastorbennett, and joshkoss have done for the Continuum. I will contribute where I can, however, it is you guys that have really done a bunch of work on it. Yes, I can be patient. Thank you again.

May not be tube right place for this question, but is there anyway that we get some cool roms like cm7? Or is that Technically unreasonable?

I've been runnin ec07 for about 2 days without incident, and even though its not a huge upgrade it does feel less buggy and battery seems to have improved dramatically imo....I rooted using soc and so far awsomeness.....one dumb question: what does deodexed mean?
sent from my XDA phone - its more than a continuum

Deodexed is a non optimized rom meaning it can be themed and modded. Odexed is the exact opposite.
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA App

I am not quite sure what you mean is "not optimized" There is no optimization differences, other than the fact the first boot is faster on odexed roms than deodexed roms xP
But you are right with the theming

problems with orientation
Has anyone been able to make their home screen rotate with the froyo roms? I saw some others mentioning being able to make their's rotate when tilting the phone sideways but mine will not, any suggestions?

gingerbread theme
I also lost the gingerbread theme when i swapped roms to EC07 (joshkoss beta1) will the gingerbread theme for the ec03 beta3 release work on the ec07?

Absolutely not xP
