Thanks so much!

I forgot, i'm using xperia mini pro. Thanks!

First off do not post links to paid apps.
Also you cant just change the name of an app. The internal code is set to look for it at the set name. If it is what it looks like in the launcher just use a custom launcher that allows you to change the name of the app in the launcher

System default wallpaper is in framework-Res.apk extract, and its in 2 folders inside/Res. Just make sure its same size (pixelsxpixels) then rezip.
Launcher, just add the one you want to/system/app and delete the old one.

You have not to install it! copy the apk to system/app/, then reboot and add the widget on your desk!
ps: I prefer beautiful widget...
I can't copy...it says something like file is read only..
I downloaded root explorer, found the apk file, made copy, access system/app and then tried to paste...

Here's an apk with the background for the 4x3 widgets set at 25%. I could go full transparent for all backgrounds if you'd like, but probably won't be able to get to it 'til after the weekend...

Did not worked for me. The file was in /system/app even not appeared in widgets
Repeated many times and still not working
Any ideas ? (I prefer HD Widgets or Accuweather For Honeycomb. Trying only to learn some tricks)
Edition after work:
Tips & Tricks
If any reason you´ve installed another version of widgets from accuweather.com, look at /system/app for both com.sec.android.widgetapp.weatherclock.apk and SamsungWidget_WeatherClock.apk (there are a conflict here)
Mount rw /system/app
Copy files to anywhere you want to backup
Remove both files
Reboot
Copy file SamsungWidget_WeatherClock.apk found at begin of this thread to /system/app
Set permissions rw-r-r
set RO back
reboot.
Stock weather widget will appear and you can install Accuweather for Honeycomb from Market. Both will work together.

[Q] Changing rom default font.

I am using Real ICS Lite r4 rom and in it's font folder it contains 7 different fonts and I want to chage the default font to a different one in the font folder. I know you can get apps that can change fonts but I would like to know how to change font by editing the rom on my pc, so if anyone can help I'll be grateful.
Cheers

Replace the fonts Roboto-Bold, Roboto-BoldItalic, Roboto-Italic and Roboto-regular in system/font folder with your prefered fonts.

I think I may of found the default font selection code in the aroma installer, which is the prefered way I'd like to change my font but if that don't work I will use your method.

i use font changer to change my font but some text still doesnt change, dey have tha ROM font....
"Sony Sketch" Font
Have a try
For now I haven't been able to do what I wanted, install a new font into the rom as defsult and not just rename my chosen font, which happened to be the 1 linked to RavinduSha which have had to use for now and drop it into my rom then install the rom.
I have found in system/etc a .xml file called system_fonts.xml that looks like it needs editing for this to work, I wil look into this further and if I do come up with a solution to change the default font of a rom and not just using a renamed file to "trick" the rom, then I'll post it here.

U can just uninstall that app after changing your font.

I have seen it stated that the font changer doesn't always change all fonts and you can end up with more than 1 font type, this is echoed above by whalesplaho saying it didn't change all their fonts and that just isn't good enough. I have a custom bootanimation, custom theme, custom lockscreen icons, every app having a paid custom icon all installed directly to app's, etc, etc, to make things how I want and don't want fonts that don't 100% match and frankly I prefer to do my designing/editing on a pc and not rely on app's to do it for me.
