My Brother just picked up the Nexus 7 with 4G. He's an iPhone guy switching over slowly.
Anyways, he asked me for some good Widgets. I said an Android classic is the "News and Weather" genie widget. He said that's not on this tablet. I told him to look under apps, for News and Weather, and sane under the Widget tab. He said nope, not there.
Did Google remove that classic Widget ?

Anyone ?
I don't own the Nexus 7 myself. Just a Galaxy Nexus, and a Note 2 running CM10.1 and the "News and Weather" genie widget is standard.
Is it not installed on the Nexus 7 ?

Nope not installed on the nexus 7. I read somewhere on here Google does not support it any more or something like that?
I've tried to side load the apk file to my n7 many times with no success.
However I am running clean ROM inheritance 3.2 and it comes with the ROM.
I am new to all this stuff. This is what I don't understand, the app is listed as transperent. It does not show up in titanium backup and I can't find it with root explorer.
I have no idea what is going on with this app.
I hope someone can clear this up

The .apk name is Genie widget. Its not called News and Weather, only named that after install.

I somehow don't feel the need to see an extra pane showing me labels and all. On top of that I think it's killing the precious space. I just like the plain jane look with just the email list or the email details.
Is there a way to turn off the panels ? I would want to get the same look as what I had in my NOTE.
Can't believe that no one replied here.

Its because of the phablet UI, the app is the same on both devices so sideloading won't do a thing

It worked great on my GNex, I haven't tried on my N7 since I don't use most of those apps... flash it and find out Just make sure to backup first
EDIT: DON'T do it. Others have reported problems
Dont try it. I did and it cocked everything up on my seven. Force closes everywhere.

I flashed in on the N7 and had major force closes all over the place.
Same here. Don't do it. This is not good for the Nexus 7. Had to run a recovery of system.

I use Polaris Office on my Galaxy Note 1 and would like it on the Nexus 10.
Has anyone got it running on the Nexus 10 and if so can you post the link where you downloaded it from?
Many thanks.

I've tried the one from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1940197
when installed as user app it opened but force closed when opening document and as system app it seemed to be opening and then just close and go back to app drawer
maybe there's something in the build.prop that has to do with it? I prefer the 4 version but didn't manage to get the 3 to work either
I've tried other office apps but as for now, Polaris is the best one I've used... Kingsoft is very slow and others I've tried didn't have good support for RTL languages which is a must for me
really want to get it to work :\
Wasn't sure what to expect so I tried it out. So... Yeah. Not impressed.

FB Home is fun to play and mess around with
but...
As a dedicated launcher it's kinda useless. It doesn't integrate with the phone UI or other apps; No widgets available either.
It's as if Mark Zuckerberg was thinking "Let's make Home an out-of-this-world experience for Facebook users; We can cram everything else into an app drawer."
Though I do think chatheads is actually a pretty useful feature if it were to include texts/emails, and not just facebook messages.
You can get Home from the Play Store. I think if you use Market Helper you can get around the 'incompatible device' stuff. Someone around here might have the APK as well.

I would download Avast from Google Play and scan sdcard and apps. Not sure what it is. Looks like spam-ware.

I found that in my phone the other day too. I don't know what it is, but it doesn't really do anything.
Could be a log file. I'm not sure what it is. I would scan again once it appears. Not sure if it is I needed file or not. I don't have a nex 4 but was looking into getting one that's why I'm at the forum.
You can try sd maid which has a system cleaner. Or change the files permissions if you are worried about it transmitting data. But I wouldn't mess with it too much until you figure out what it is.

You guys could wipe your sdcard with twrp if you are worried, but back up all your wanted sdcard data to a computer first. And then put it back on right after. I do that with my Nexus 7 sometime. Not sure if it is the same process on Nex4. It may not be necessary, not sure.
