Hey all,
Question for the geniuses in here, the HD2 HTC weather app built into the phone, can it be exported and put in another phone? Personally I like the way it eye candies the home screen if it’s cold or raining and such. Does anyone know of a similar weather app for other HTC phones? I personally have the GSM Touch Pro 2 and the HD2 weather app would be beautiful on this phone. Can this be done has it been done or does anyone know of any similar cool looking weather apps?
Thanks for reading,

/bump for help plz?
hey everyone! i got a question lol..
i decided to go with the tmobile 6.5 and was wondering is there way to have the the animated weather on the home screen? like in the newer sense
Hello
Yes,it is possible,of course.
I do not know about Tmobile ROMs though,but about HTC custom ROMs I do know.
You just need to install custom,official HTC WM6.5 ROM,and you will have everything on it...animated weather especially looks great.
You know the procedure of flashing? If you do not,go to ROM section,this is not a thread for it.
yes i know how to flash..
been coming here since my touch pro1 but i recently flashed to the tmobile rom just too check out the new upadate to 6.5..so i need the official htc rom instead?
You need to run a rom that specifically has the Sense 2.1 (notice SENSE and not just regular 2.1) or a rom that runs manilla 2.5. Either of those has the weather background you are talking about.
The problem is that T-Mobile changes the default wallpaper to something other than the animated weather wallpaper. I am looking for a way to enable the animated weather wallpaper on the TMOUS ROM and will post back if i find anything.

You can try this way. Pick a T-Mobile wallpaper you want. Use HDWall to make a cab from that wallpaper. Install the cab file and soft reset.
From what I can tell, T-Mobile replaced the animated weather wallpaper with some T-Mobile.png for the default wallpaper. Can anyone upload the animated weather wallpaper from the EU ROM or similar?
HTC Sense
Well guys,
I am reading all these posts,and I just wanted to give you all a small advice...
I realize that most of you guys live in the USA or Canada,and I can understand why do you want TMobile ROM that much.
However,I highly recommend official,stock HTC WM 6.5 ROM,because it has all the stuff we need.
Our friend asked for weather animated screen. So,if you really want that,install the ROM I mentioned and enjoy. No hacks,no registry editing,no nothing. Just flash and enjoy.
Besides,it has a lot of functions you will like a lot. ( And you will get a real,Windows Mobile 6.5 look..........
Best regards from Serbia.
well the official ROM is nice because then we don't have to load cabs for the keyboard and MMS fixes. As well as cabs for the my account, VVM, and myfaves if you happen to use it. I did run the EU ROM for a couple months until I found something better and it was great. But I do not need the animated weather wallpaper bad enough to prefer to install all the extra cabs i would need to make my phone work for me.
If you could go into your phone and attach the animated wallpaper then we could load it onto our phones as the default wallpaper and it would make life much happier
Animated Weather aka HTC Sense
@Zylograth
Well,I am really willing to help you guys,but maybe you know the following:
Animated Weather is highly complicated program,which is not consisted of animated wallpapers only. It changes according to weather...if it is rainy,small drops are all over the phones screen,if it is snowy,snowflakes are all around...if it is sunny,sunlight is all over the place..it is the most beautiful today screen I have ever seen.
However,I will try to figure something out. So far,I know it takes about 25 MB of RAM...can you imagine how big that .CAB file would be,when it takes about 25 MB of RAM? I need to find a way to extract it from my ROM and make it usable,(if it is possible at the first place,but I doubt)
Yeah, I am not too worried about it, though it would be nice to have. If I decide that I cannot live without it I will go back to the EU ROM, but for the time being I am happy with the TMOUS ROM lol

Thanks to El Daddy, weather animations are as simple as using HD walls and the hack below (old HD walls cabs made in winmo 6.1 work, too)
Awesome!

I just used a HD walls cab and made 2 reg edits.
HKCU/software/htc/manila/
delete the value for CashedBackgroundPath and HomeBackgroundPath. That should work!

I've been looking for them, too, this morning.
Found them here
Hi all,
i would like to install Live wallpaper, but i hav not option for installing this,
I have just Wallpaper and Galery, i haven't got Live Paper ...
How can i do for put the live wallpaper? please
I've got a rom with SENSE
Flash a ROM which supports it. Live Wallpapers are not officially supported by HTC. WildPuzzle ROM is an example, with Sense and which supports Live Wallpapers.
Hi, i hope this post isn't covered anywhere else cos i've tried searching and i can't seem to find it, if it does exist, apologies.
i've currently installed the devnull ROM and i would like to install the htc clock widget.
where can i find the .apk for this widget? if i can get my hands on another htc desire, can i grab the files from that install it on my rooted device? if this is possible, which files do i need to copy?
thanks for any response!
I don't think you can get it, but beautiful Widgets or fancy Widgets are just as good.
I prefer fancy Widgets.
Posted telepathically. Oh yes.

HTC clock widget is only available in Sense ROMs - not AOSP ROMs like Devnull.
Beautiful widgets has a similar closk - very nice.
I wanted same for villain rom on my desire but could not find it, but there is an app on market named "sense analog clock widget" i.e pretty much same (well I think it's better with more options).
Give it a try

Hi guys, I'm looking for the DARK htc clock/meteo widget. Where can I find it?
I have seen that it is included in some themes but I don't want to install a complete theme only for a widget....

This is as close as you will get without the actual Sense clock.
