hey guys im looking for the stocks app made by htc that runs with the stocks widget for gingerbread. apparently i cant grab the apk from another rom because its going to be based on froyo or something (which ive tried anyways and i just get a force close). so does anyone know where/how to get the app? cheers
I'm not sure it's possible: from what I've heard, widgets specifically from sense roms are for sense only. Though there's a good chance someone can correct me on this.
Assuming I'm right, sorry: can't help except advise to browse the market thoroughly.

Is it possible to put the blur messaging.apk on blurless roms... i've always stuck to blurry roms like apex and bazinga, but i want to check out liberty and i've used the aosp messaging and i don't really like it...
I don't think the blur messaging is something u can add in. liberty has a toolbox that allows you to add in some blue features, but messaging is not one if them...
Try searching around for adding blur messaging into non blur roms, but I dont know any way at the moment

Try Tranquility 3.6. You can add and remove a lot of things

Ohhh I know there are roms where you can add the blur stuff you want, I'm specifically asking if there is a way you can add the blur messenging into blurless roms, like liberty

The point of a blurless rom is that it doesn't have blur. If you want true blur go back to stock
I understand that... I guess you weren't fully grasping my question

Ok then it depends in the rom that you are running. Fusion seems like a good idea for you because it is a slightly blurred version of fission. Give that a try

+1 for jmoney's comment. I would suggest trying out fusion or apex. Or zapX bazinga, but I havent really followed zapX for a while, so I dont know its current status.

Yeah I've tried zapx and apex... I was just wondering if you can specifically install the blur messaging .apk on a blurless rom...
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I guess if it is an .apk you should technically be able to install it... I'll do some digging around different forums

Just because it is an .apk, does not necessarily mean it will install. With that, if it does install, it may not work correctly either. Some .apk files (blur files for instance) have other dependencies such as the moto-res.apk or the blur-res.apk files that come with the stock Motorola ROM's. These additional apk's have the dependencies built into them that allow the blur components to run correctly. Without the necessary configuration (not exactly sure, as I have not done ROM development) these blur apks will not work.
My guess with blur apps such as the blur camera, is that they do not rely on the moto-res or blur-res files in order to run, or only need a modification to a lib file to work correctly. Again, I'm not a programmer, but have a decent amount of IT knowledge and background for basic ideas and concepts. If you can find an answer that allows you to install what you are looking for, I would very much like to know about it, as many people here ask the same question you are asking.
However, (and I hate to sound redundant) the blur-less ROMS are created because many people dislike blur. Along with that... If I can find an answer to help you out, I will be sure to post back here as well!
Sorry to sound repetitive or a downer, just trying to provide you with any info I have.
What you said makes complete sense
.. I guess I just like the "build" of the blur messaging compared to the aosp messaging... I'm slowly getting used to the aosp messaging in liberty.... I guess you can only take what you get!

I come from the Samsung Vibrant Dev area. A friend of mine has a Droid X and all he does is flash Roms, doesn't know much about them. His phone does a TV like on/off animation when the screen goes on and off. What is that? Where is it located/ implemented. any info on it would be great. As search is down right now i cant search it. I am interested in possible porting it.
The liberty tool box has a bunch of different startup animations to choose from, I'm not sure if the one your looking for is in it but it does have the option to add ones from your SD card. Its meant to run on the x with the liberty rom but if you can port it then it might be a good place to start.
Edit:ah just reread your post you're looking for when it goes to sleep, sorry don't know that one. Sounds cool I'll have to look out for it.

Unless his rom is built on 2.3 I don't think it is. Since that power off tv animation is part of 2.3 and 2.3 only good luck.
I think you might be right but I thought it was a feature he was planning on adding. I did some searching and did find that the ultimate Droid has the feature, here's the link...

Edit: and just because its a feature of 2.3 doesn't mean its impossible to port it.

You can download one of the stock based ROMs out there and just pull it out of there.
This may be stupid noob question but is there a wiki of forum that explains how to rip apps froma stock rom?

I'm legally blind and I'm really looking forward to see the new accessibility features in Android 4.0. Now I know their new accessibility features on the Galaxy Nexus, but do they also come in the roms for other devices, mainly the MYTOUCH4g?

I've actually tried the rom and it does not include the "Explore By Touch" feature. I was wondering if their was a fix for it, The problem is that ICS doesn't recognize the trackpad so the only way visually impaired and blind people can use the rom is with this feature. Please someone HELP ME with this.......
One thing I forgot to mention is that the Rom is still a working progress so maybe that feature might be included.later. have you tried the market. There are couple apps there that might help.

I have tried the market and there was nothing in regards to this, but I did contact the dev and he told me that he would be looking into it for me..

Some accessibility features are absent though, mainly because the accessibility package isn't there... Normally once the phone is first booted and you're at the Welcome screen, you can draw your finger around the perimeter of the screen which starts the Accessibility assistant. Doesn't do this in our ICS ROM (yet).
I actually messaged the dev for this rom and i was instructed to download the google tts and the explore by touch feature would be there, So I'll give it a shot and report my findings.
So I've tried the fix but its a no go. For some reason the google TTS or any TTS for that matter just isn't working for me in ICS, so if anyone has a fix for the TTS issue in the rom I would greatly appreciate it.

TTS doesn't work in our ICS ROM for some reason, I got nothing but Force Closes. That I won't stress over because I'm not disabled (yet), but it's a buzzkill for those who need it.

Well I messaged the dev and told him my findings about the TTS issue so hopefully with the next few updates of the rom the TTS issue will be taken care of.
