[Q] new and weather widget - Desire Themes and Apps

Hi All.
I have been flashing roms for some time, but a noobie for posting to the forums (need to increase my post count so I can properly use the most applicable forums for my rom).
Anyway, one widget I use often is the news and weather widget (4x1), but I find that it isn't in all the roms, including my current one .
I was thinking to copy the widget across from a stock rom, but am not sure what file/files are required.
Does anyone have any hints?
Thanks.

Which widget is it (picture)?

I have a feeling its this one they're referring to...
What ROM are you using by the way? I'd imagine any of the Sense ROMs would have it...I'm using the 9600gt Stock which has it

its geniewidget.apk or genie something. I know because
I delete it from my rom before flashing.
Hope this helps.

thank you bro

Thanks all
That is indeed the widget that I am after. It is in most roms, but my current favourite sense rom is iNsertCoinHD DATA++ v03, and this is where I am really missing it. I have now loaded redux just to play with it, but expect to go back to my favourite again.
I periodically switch between HD roms and AOSP based ones - aiming to find acceptable replacements for all the good HTC apps/widgets in preparation for next upgrade that may not be HTC device.

use a backup app (ex Titanium Backup) and use it to restore after flashing any rom

I can but not until i get to my other laptop with all my Android builds on them in the morning.
Ah, I've got time, no problem.
There you go complete with ODEX file. From a 1.76 ROM.
OK, thanks.
Hm, it didn't work.
Don't know, why.
I've copied the apk into Apps folder. The odex I don't know.
Now, there is no Contact Widget.
On my HTC Hero (Europe), I have the widget you discribe as the "old" one.
Where did you find the "new" one ?
Put the ODEX file in there aswell and see what happens. Or try pushing it onto the phone with Sync and let it install that way.
Where did you get the "new" one from my hero (uk) has the old one
I've updated it with MoDaCo.
There it is.

Windows-branded Wallpaper

Anyone have any good Windows-branded Wallpaper that looks nice on the Touch Pro 2?
I'm looking for wallpaper that fits nicely and has the Windows logo without mention of a full OS (e.g. Vista for example). I'll continue my search in the meantime and post anything good I find here.
Thanks ahead of time!
Here are some examples, maybe you can use them ^^

Is this possible to use Live Wallpapers on TP2 like Legend and Desire?

no its not possible unless theres a program that does but AFIAK there isnt any
if you want live wallpapers grab a copy of the android port in the android thread
You can do live wallpaper with the newest beta of Throttle Launcher.
If you want the beta you will have to scroll on down lower on the download page to find the link to it.
What the heck, here's the link to the download page for v1.1.5
http://www.throttlelauncher.com/portal/News/Latest/throttlelauncher-11-almost-here
Scroll down on page and find the link to v1.1.5, click on it then scroll down, agree to terms and click on the download button. And most of all ..... have fun with it. I know I sure do.
sense 2.1 has weather and animated homescreen wallpapers...... actually 2.1 for that matter might support this as well. I don't recall it's been a long time since I've had that.
I have 2.1 with the animated weather.

It's a start which is a good thing. Although it reminds me of the sliding lockscreen just themed. I managed to find a fascinate system dump if anyone wants to extract the lockscreen from it to possibly mod it.

Hell, I'd love to give it a shot, not promising anything, I've never tried anything like this, but I want that lock screen and I don't mind risking my Eris

[Q] [Help] Need help from the community for next release

Hey everyone-
I'm asking for help from anyone who's willing to. I don't care if it's not normal for "devs" to ask everyone else for help, this is a community and we thrive on helping one another (by the way, I'm no dev).
Here's my situation: I have the next SkinnyEvo rom ready to be released. It's awesome. The only thing holding me back is a 'flickering' of system animations.
I've attached pictures so you can see what I'm talking about - notice the horizontal lines in the battery status when it's charging, or the downloading icon when using the market. It also happens when typing, scrolling text (like music), the launcher, and even some widgets when simply sitting on the homescreen.
From what I've been able to find, this 'flickering' issue used to be common back before I was involved with the HD2. It may seem like a small issue, but after a day of glitchy animations, you'll go crazy.
I've tried different kernels (only hastarins) and many other things.. but I would like to open it up to other suggestions so we can get this rom released! If you would like the rom "as is" to troubleshoot on your own, PM me and I will provide a link for you.
Thanks a bunch!

Custom Lockscreen - Zooper Widget Free (First Timer, Suggestions?)

Hey everyone,
So, I've found Zooper Widget Free... And tell you what... IT'S AWESOME!
Took a previous widget and made my own Lockscreen Widget... Here's some pix...
On the Lockscreen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",

}
And at the security prompt:
I would attach it but I don't have the option on Tapatalk... Will upload shortly.
Thanks and happy modding,
Johnathan
Nice Job. Never used zooper widget. Is it difficult to use?
@DankVader,
Works like other widgets but has a lot of options to configure it.
Widget
It looks very nice ^^ @johnathanamber What suggestions do you need ?
It looks awesome. Question. I downloaded it on my phone but what file in zooper should i move it to? It's still a zip so i'm not sure if i have to unzip it or not. My file choices are templates, autosave, APKZips, fonts, iconsets and bitmaps.
@Grafitter, any, honestly.
I actually have an updated version now... Will post when I get a chance.
@spartydroid51,
The so needs to be unpacked and the file opened with Zooper. Templates, I believe, is a good choice.
