Does anyone have the HTC Flyer WiFi stock weather/clock app? Is so can you post it? Thanks.
Those are widgets. You can pull them from any of the ROM, but they will not work standalone, they need the matching Sense framework parts. What is the issue you are trying to solve?
I deleted it from my tablet and wanted to reinstall. How do I strip it from a rom?

There is a clock app and a weather app.
OP: Do u mean the app you can open from the app drawer or something you see on your home screen?
In the ROM just open the zip file and look in system/app

Anybody know where I can find a apk file for friendstream that works on the vibrant?
I am using LP and it appears that I can't use my samsung widgets (if anyone knows how I can utilize the feeds and updates widget with LP please let me know).
I have downloaded some friendstream.apk files from different parts of the forums but they weren't installable so any help would be great!
You can't use TW widgets with LP.
dang, i figured but I really want to be able to use some sort of social aggregator so I am lookinig for a friendstream apk at least.
Try Socialite or just use the Facebook app
socialite isn't in the market place. i too liked the friendstream widget on TW.

Use the T-Mobile Social Buzz app. It integrates Facebook, Twitter and Myspace into one. It doesn't have a Widget but it has notifications that you can manually set intervals for. Check it out!
next version of launcher pro plus will have a friendstream type widget. but you wont be able to use friendstream either since thats a sense widget

Was wondering if anyone tried this or found a smiliar fix for the stupid lockscreen blocking the wallpaper. I can tollerate or even appreciate much of everything else in this version of Sense, everything except my animated wallpaper getting blocked by this crap
try downloading from market two apps, one called no lock so u can disable the sense lockscreen then download an app called simply lockscreen, you can choose the transparency to what you want so your background will show thru, love it!
You can also use Root Explorer and delete the HTClockscreen.apk and ODEX file. You will have a transparent lockscreen with the stock ASOP sliders...
well i perma rooted phone thanx to visionary & deleted the HTCLockscreen apk & odex file.
yet I still get the lockscreen, even when i delete and immediately reboot.. THE HTCLOCKSCREEN APK & ODEX FILES COME BACK IN /system/apps !!
wtf am I doing wrong? lol - did this whole rooting thing before on older android phone yet the lockscreen that won't die is making me feel like a n00b
also read on here that Titanium Backup can also force out HTC Lockscreen to Froyo default but don't know what app name it falls under in the huge list of apps on my phone since i don't see anything obvious like "HTC Lockscreen" or anything of the sort.

make sure youre deleting the apk from /system/app and that youre mounted in R/W that worked for me now i have the transparent AOSP lockscreen. but understand that if you delete this apk your stock alarm wont function properly and you will have to download an aftermarket app from the market. for some reason HTC tethered the stock alarm into the HTClockscreen.apk lol so it goes off when its set to go off but you cant dismiss the alarm afterwards lol
Is there any way to make it NOT be transparent but rather with a black background, (or possibly other configurable setting, such as settings -> personalize -> lockscreen background)? The transparency looks not so good as the desktop widgets come through and the texts overlay one another.
I renamed the HtcLockScreen.apk (I have the deodexed ice glacier rom) in /system/app but ended up putting it back because it caused me to have convulsions for it to be transparent.

lol yes yes and yes i have R/W mounted in the root folder (otherwise it wouldn't let me delete anything lol). and i do go in that exact folder and for the moment those two files are deleted
yet the moment turn screen off and bring it back up... there's the dreadful lock screen of HTC's even tho the files are deleted. and upon rebooting the phone (hard or quick reboot) they magically appear
is everyone who deleted these two files with success using a secondary ROM? Because I'm still on the default ROM since.. well I still like much of the default ROM outside of course... this cursed lockscreen
You have s=off ? If you don't, even though you're remounting /system as rw, it might not be writing back out to flash memory if s=on. Just a thought.

more then a mere thought, it's the fix that finally works!
went through all these steps except the visionary stuff that I already did to get root and after deleting those two HTCLockscreen files & rebooting, whala!
of course I'm now seeing the issue folks was talking about with seeing the homescreen icons/widgets through the lockscreen but i feel like progress was made still. thanks all!
How can you hide the homescreen icons, dock, and activities from the clear sliding lock acreen after deleting the htclockscreen file?
not sure about Espresso/Stock but on the Desire HD and Desire Z ROMs the only thing that shows through is the wallpaper (static or LWP whatever you have set), no icons or widgets.
Well those phones arent the one with the issue, the g2 has the stock lockscreen I want.
I deleted the htclockscreen.apk but not the htclockscreen.odex and I do get the transparent lockscreen with the sliders people mention, (idk what's the point of deleting the odex file if it works fine by just deleting the apk) I also get the icons, widgets etc. being displayed in the lockscreen as well. This is my main issue. Is there a way to fix the settings of the ASOP lockscreen that has been aquired by deleting the htclockscreen.apk? How? If not can I just flash a zip of a ASOP lockscreen instead, that way its not been modified by htc?
Did you guys see this one? I've been using it since Dec.

I wan't talking about the phones, i was talking about the ROMs that have been ported from their stock versions to run on our phones. Stock they are running HTC Sense without the TMO Espresso overlay on top of it. I was pointing out that on Stock Sense deleting the HTCLockscreen.apk it gets you have the "stock" G2/AOSP screen like what you are wanting where you can see your wallpaper image or your LWP running behind the locksliders without seeing all your icons and widgets. so if you (like myself) prefer Sense over AOSP/CM but prefer the AOSP lockscreen sliders, then switching to one of eVil D's or Gr8Gorilla's Desire HD ports or eVil D's Desire Z port will let you have exactly what you are trying to do. and it's not just this phone... my wife's phone and my backup phone the MT3G-Slide which also runs Espresso over Sense has the same issue on the stock ROM. it is an issue with Espresso.

Thank you guys both responses are really helpful ( : I actually made a combination of both evil d's desire z port and the updated zip found on post #48 of the thread of the link provided lol,
"THANKS, worked like a charm!!! Here's the updated zip file. Attached Files Really_Trans.arrows.Lockscreen.zip (3.1 KB, 50 views)"
It works really nicely, except the lockscreen music widget is shifted to the right when music is being played when
the transparent lockscreen zip has been applied. Stock rom or port rom of desire z.
@Ravenwulf whats the difference between evil d's desire hd port and gr8gorilla's desire hd port? and whats the difference between the desire z port and desire hd port? Pros and cons?

differences between eVil D's HD port is that it is using a newer baseband for the build and some of the themes ported for gorilla's ROM have issues with eVil's ROM. but there is a thread over on the D-HD board that has a bunch of themes/skins that work with both CAN BE FOUND HERE, just download the ones you like and install them (not flash but install using a file manager like Astro). the only major/noticeable difference between the D-HD and D-Z that I found is that the D-HD only has portrait mode for the home screen when using stock/Sense launcher (like our stock/Espresso ROM), where as the D-Z home screen will rotate between portrait and landscape depending on how you're holding the phone.

Wow that was a fast reply. I'm gonna sound like a total noob, what's baseband? Does it mean
Like signal strength? So should I use evil d's Rom instead because it'll have faster speeds?
Also I noticed gr8gorilla has the genius button app installed in his d-hd rom while the other two roms from evil d don't.
I was just wondering, coz my wife has a Motorola Photon 4G, I saw that you can use the Blur widgets on ADW EX or basically any launcher, (social media, messaging, weather tc.) and I want to use ADW EX on my phone but I cant use the HTC widgets. So the question is,
* Is there a way to install Blur widgets on the EVO3D if so, how?
* Is there a way to use the Sense widgets without the sense launcher?
let me know guys! thanks

Install Blur widgets on the EVO 3D. Widgets are packaged the same as applications, in .apk files. .apk files are basically just a wrapper like a .zip is a wrapper.
If they are compatible, you should be able to install the blur widgets the same way you would install any other application on the EVO 3D.
It does surprise me the moto blur widgets work in other launchers, that is impressive on behalf of moto putting the extra time/code in to make them compatible with other launchers.
I don't think there is anyway to use sense widgets w/o the sense launcher...at least I haven't seen anything posted. I think the sense widgets use sense launcher/framework files. Perhaps they could be portable? But not sure how difficult/time consuming the process would be.
Hope that helps point in the right direction!
Yeah, I tried extracting them and installing the apks as if theyre just regular apps, but its just giving me errors, also tried adding them to root system/apps folder, it shows that theyre installed but when you add widgets, its not there. I dont know much about this type of things. any ideas? i think you have to edit or maybe add something else here.
Pretty sure you need the blur framework in order to run any blur widgets. So, without a blur port I doubt it's possible.

This is definitely how the HTC widgets work and wouldn't surprise me if the moto blur widgets worked the same. If their framework files were separate from the system framework files, it would be easier to port but if they combine their framework files with the android framework files it will take much longer to sort out which is moto and which is android ...
Let us know what type of errors you're receiving. My gut feeling says they aren't, but *maybe* they are something simple! Hope that makes sense and helps!
When I use my flyer it happens randomly that HTC sense is frozen. I still be able to use status bar and launcher but I can't see my apps and Widgets (only the wallpaper lol) to bring it back I have to manually turn HTC sense both service and app off. I didn't find any help so I posted it there. I am not using a task killer. Does anyone could help me fix it?
Thanks

What widgets have you installed, which use you on the homescreen, which Android version?
infos
The only installed are the stock Widgets and only the scribe, calculator, agenda and weathers are used on homescreen. The version is GB 2.3 stock from videotron.
Hello,
Are there any pracices out there to rip the HTC widgets/apps from previous versions of sense or from other ROMs to install on Sense 5? Or even better, is there anyone skilled enough to compile the widgets into a flashable zip file through recovery? Ultimately, I would like to have sense 5, but so far I cant give up the widgets in sense 4+ right now. I have found a ROM that has infused the friendstream widget into the DNA stock rom, so I think there is hope. But whenever I try another sense rom I cant seem to find a way to install some of the HTC stock apps/widets from previous versions. I've tried straight install with package installer, but that always fails of course. I have also tried pushing the apk files using ADB and they successfully push and I can see them in the system/app folder but the app drawer and the widgets drawer dont recognize them. A few of the widgets/apps I would like to see in the newer versions of sense are:
Footprints
Locations
Friendstream
Calendar (Agenda widget)
Sense 4+ Full month calendar widget
Weather widget
Weather clock with animations
Thanks for any help or advice!

Considering he wants "old" sense stuff in sense 5, anything sense 4+ and before would fit under "old" or old versions. There's a few things I missed too, the lock screen weather and clock effects mostly. Useless, but so pretty lol
