There are screenshots of the smoked widgets in the thread if you click through to it, and I'm sure if you search G2 rom, google voice widget, you'll find screenshots of them too.
cheers,

Here it is: http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2010/08/30/google-voice-widgets-leaked-for-android/ theres a video included as well.
I flashed the Smoked Widgets zip and now I'm stuck in a soft reboot loop. Sigh. Not a full reboot, just keeps going to black screen, no network connection, starting up again, scanning memory card, wash-rinse-repeat. Can't open any apps or do anything before it reboots itself again.
You have to do each .apk
Don't use the flashable .zip!
I've gotten Twitter, News & Weather, & Pandora widgets to work
Trying to get the CalendarProvider, FaceBook, & Engadget widgets working, but no luck so far. If anyone does get them to work, I would love to hear what you did
I was stuck at the reboot after installing the Smoked zip as well. Reflashed to stock and then since I was there, installed Vibrant8. adb installed Twitter.apk. adb installer failed for the the Facebook.apk so I did a adb push for both the Facebook.apk and GenieWidget.apk.
All 3 apps loaded fine but when I tried to reboot the phone froze as it was loading up. I don't know if it is one of the apk's (Facebook?) that was causing the issue or Vibrant8 but it would be interesting to see if anyone with a Vibrant on 2.1 got the Facebook one to work after a reboot.
I'm on 2.1, and currently working on getting FB to work. I'll post my results and method later today (might wind up being more like very early tomorrow haha)
No need for this anymore. Google Voice is now officially updated on the market with the widgets. Version 0.4.1.26
Does this mean we can use GV without using our carrier minutes?

They were calling Google an idiot, not you. Funny, though.
Kind of hard to tell since grammar isn't being used. It changes the whole structure of the sentence.
lol......wtf called u idiot? unreal
chillllllllllllllllllllllllll
Alright so how do you apply those smoked widgets?
so i am trying to install these via root explorer, but i can't seem to find the apks for facebook or twitter in the system/app or root explorer?? it's on myu device but it must be named something else, anyone have a clue?
Did anyone get Facebook or Twitter working?

I moved both apps to /system/app before pushing the modified apk's through adb and I had no problems.
I tried to buy this app in the store and it says not compatible with my device? Why the hell not? This has me quite upset, I was hoping to listen to games while its slow at work. Grrrr......
Works for me, i am listening to the brewers cards game right now

It's not because of running an ICS ROM would it?

Nope, shouldn't matter. I'm on ICS. Find the free version APK and sideload it, and then it gives you the option of logging into your MLB account to get the audio streams.

Thanks, I will have to learn how to do that for future games I guess, I'm at work typing on the phone right now so....
I have the free version on my phone, that one works. It's when I tried to upgrade that it won't.
Hey, it's a thread I have something meaningful to contribute to. I just got this working today. I have At Bat 12 Light, but I had to set lcd_density back to 320 to get it. Then I found I couldn't stream video. So I did some googling and learned how to spoof the phone model. See, MLB only allows video streaming on pre-approved devices. Rezound isn't, but galaxy nexus is. There are 4 (I think) build.prop entries that need to be changed. Unfortunately I can't find the link at the moment, but you shouldn't have too much trouble searching various keyword permutations.
Wait, is anyone able to buy the MLB at bat app that costs 14.99? This is the one I can't download because it says it's not compatible with the Rezound. The "lite" version isn't the problem...

So I have the At Bat Lite on my phone, when I try logging in to my MLB account it still tells me I need At Bat 12, which it won't let me do. What am I missing?

But you're using the free app and logging in with your MLB paid account right? The free app is compatible, the paid app (for those without paid MLB accounts) is not

Buy it on the Amazon Appstore.

So I just paid $20 for the annual subscription to MLB.com, do I also have to pay $$$ for the app to listen to games?
No....
If you paid and have a MLB account, you should be good to go.
I have the 24.95 sub which includes the video (but doesn't currently work on the Rezound, just the radio audio feeds work).
I downloaded the free "lite" version of MLB and just put in my log and pass and it works fine on unrooted stock GB.
To be sure that I wasn't losing any MLB access or features (outside of the live tv feed) I also put the "Lite" version on my Dinc (which does work with the Live video feeds) and it worked fine...
So you want the MLB lite app.
I personally went to the MLBTV website and subscribed there.... Got my log and pass and then downloaded the app from Google Play.

Thanks guys, this is what I did and it seems to have worked. It's obviously not an ICS problem since there are guys using it without trouble.
The ROM absolutely does matter. There are several apps that I cannot reload on CleanROM 4.2 from either pushing from the Play website or downloading in the Play store app. In the latter under "My Apps" it actually tells you it isn't compatible when click the app and go to its page.
One of the greatest Android applications I've ever used is Tubemate. The ability to download YT videos in the size I want is extraordinary. The WP application I hear the most about is MetroTube. What I really would like to see is a head to head versus the two applications in a video. Does anyone have a WP8 device and an Android laying so we can see a shootout?

Well, I started using the apps, and let me give you a quick rundown
Tubemate:
-Review in progress-
Metrotube:
-App taken down due to backend problems-
Will do a WP8 version review once its back up
Devices I'm using to review the apps
Tubemate: Motorola Atrix 2
Metrotube: HTC Windows Phone 8X
Video used:
Gangnam Style
Thanks for the comparison and the write up. I really thought Metrotube allowed for downloads for offline viewing?
That feature is currently in the latest beta.

Any way I can get it?
Tweet 'em @metrotube or just send them an email (you can find the address on their twitter stream somewhere) and they will let you in on the fun - if they still need testers!
Post will be updated at the request of the dev of TubeMate.
Meh, MetroTube doesn't even play videos on my 8x anymore. No videos load.. I just click play and the thumbnail blinks and goes back as if I never even clicked play.

Thats because Google made some changes again, third party apps like Metrotube and Tubemate have to be changed because of this- give it time, it's not their fault.

It force closes the app. I think we need the APK for it to function.
Here is a full system.img dump from the new Nexus 5 that was released yesterday. Droid Life posted the updated Google Apps here:
http://www.droid-life.com/2013/10/3...-5-dump-search-launcher-and-more/#more-123662
I have Infected Rom on my Rez and updated some of the apps to the latest versions. Google Home (the new launcher) works great. The new Hangouts is now also your SMS app. Gmail, Google Keyboard (with built in emoji plugin), and Google Play Services also work. Google Gallery FC on me, and the new Camera app works, but the new feature (don't know what it is called) FC'ed when I clicked on it. Camera settings is set for 8m pixels, but when viewed in the old Gallery, the pics weren't full size. The pic quality was great, though.
Throughout the day and weekend, REV3NT3CH and I will be testing more new .apk's and will keep you all informed. This system.img dump also includes the build.prop and the boot.img. We are gonna do our best to get either the Nexus 5 system ported over to the Rez, or build straight from AOSP source.
If any other Devs would like in on this, then please PM either REV3NT3CH or myself, and we can go from there.
I am NOT a Dev myself, still learning a few things, but know enough to do what we need to do. Any questions then feel free to ask, and if this thread is in the wrong section then please let me know, or move it to the right section.
Here is the link to the full system dump:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/hty7m61cgy16bcq/Nexus 5 dump.zip
Hope this can help get us started for the Rez.
EDIT: My dropbox links are generating too much traffic. Uploading to Mediafire now. Dropbox links are still working currently, though. Once uploaded to mediafire, I will put the links up. Thanks all!
ANOTHER EDIT: Here is the mediafire link for the system dump and the apps.

130 views for this thread so far and no comments? Is development for the Rez really this dead?
Also, here is a link for just the apps if you don't want to download the dump file. Hope this can help some people.

Xda is generally quieter during 9-5 on the east coast.
If you guys can port this to the Rezound, that would be awesome. I've got a port of 4.3.1 running on my Rezound and it runs pretty well. I'm not aware of any inherent reason KitKat can't run (except to the extent that Wallet requires NFC) on Rezound hardware.
REV3NT3CH says he is now syncing the repo for 4.4. We will know soon. Would you like to be a tester, also?

I have a 4.4 build of Evervolv building for the Rezound right now, not sure if it's going to build or not. That being said, my daughter is at her grandparents for the evening and it's date night with the wifey so I doubt I'll get much time to mess around with it.
I know the feeling, bro. Doing the family thing this weekend.

I tried most of these on tachyon 1.2, just quick apk install no real diagnostics. I found the new Google search seems to close right after opening (no fc just closes).
The launcher seems to work but relies on the search piece which generates errors, it kinda works with both installed, but generally needs a Dev to investigate for our devices.
Email app seems to work, but no exchange services tie to it, compared to my other native email app they appear to point to different setting locations.
Clock wouldn't install
Keyboard, Gmail, hangouts, and keep all seem to be fine. Some of the wallpapers are pretty sweet too

Thanks for the info. I haven't had a chance to test out all the apps. You have to install Google Play Services, Google Search, and Google Home to get the launcher to work properly. Voice search part does FC though, but that is the only issue I have found. I installed Google Now to go with it all, and it is sweet, but Voice Search FC's. I think Email and a few others are gonna have to rely on the new services.jar to get it all working properly. Anyone who knows how to read code better than me hopefully will figure it out. I will post more apps and what is working later on today, hopefully.
Try installing Exchange2Google.apk to get the Exchange to work in the new Email.apk.

Send me a zip of it if it builds, please. I will flash it and see what needs work, etc.
Giving some of these apps a try on a clean install of carbon.
I can't get chrome or drive working.
They FC immediately. I also tried to install the dialer and framework but package is invalid.
I installed launcher with Google home, prebuilt, and velvet. I haven't tried search yet but am going to do the library tip above.
Thanks for posting the dump. I can't wait until the devs tailor it to the Rez.
Google search works the the .so tip. But the "OK Google" doesn't.
I'd be interested in testing as well.
