Hiya,
just installed the rom a few days ago and it seems realy good but i am having a problem with widgets.
I install a widget to the phone for instance touch calender but when i try to put the widget on the screen it does not show touch calender in the widgets lists.
Anyone got any ideas on how i can solve this - seem to remember had the exact same problems when i tried CM7.
Many Thanks

Widgets need to go on internal storage.
Swyped...
Yeah, they need to go internal.
Strangely it works for me with Launcher Pro Plus.
Ok many thanks for that moved it over and it works.
What a wally for not thinking of that i should have known it.
Cheers for the replies and solving this for me.

I am getting a Desire soon and personally I would rather remove Sense UI, but this is not longer possible the easy way.
Can anyone explain if you can remove sense another way? I have heard people say to use Launcher2 or HelixLauncher to get the 3D app drawer and the nexus one launcher. Can anyone confirm this works?
Thanks!
Yep if your install either you can make them default and use them instead but it will still have the Sense theming of all the apps / status bar etc and obv the HTC widgets wont work
ok thanks or the quick reply
so if i use either of these launchers i will not be able to use HTC widgets?
and when/if the desire gets rooted i'll be able to stick a nexus one rom on?
has anyone had any experience with either of these launchers on the desire?
im new to android so i apologise for the noobish questions
Not a problem
Nope you won't be able to use the HTC Widgets... but you can launch the HTC Sense launcher at any time and get access to your widgets though it's a bit of hassle doing that everytime hence i'm gonna stick with htc sense launcher myself.
Both the nexus launcher and helix work great on my Desire, no problems as far as i've been using it.
Not sure about putting then nexus rom though, sorry
thanks for the info.
so installing launcher2 enables the 3D app drawer from the nexus one?
just to clarify lol
Yep the home screen looks like the nexus one and you get the 3D drawer with fades. It looks pretty good! I just wish the widgets still worked then it would be perfect.
thanks again for your quick reply
so where do i download this launcher 2? from the android market when i get the phone?
sorry so many questions!
Not a problem,
Helix you can get from the market but launcher2 you will need to get from somewhere else but if you search these forums you will find one you can install no problem
awesome, thanks again.
one last request: which version did you use? i've searched here and elsewhere and each version is different and im not sure which to use
I'm not sure to be honest, if you know how to check then I can tell you?
I am relatively new at this, so I apologize if I'm missing any necessary information...
When I rooted my phone the first time, the most updated version of Syndicate Frozen was 1.0.2 (Malanga)/Twilight Zone 1.0.4. I never had an issue with it, and for the most part it ran with no problems. I ran the fully loaded which didn't include Launcher Pro with it, but I had previously purchased it when I was running stock.
A couple of days later, I noticed that an update was available for Syndicate Frozen 1.1.0 (Takiya). So I went ahead and ODINed my phone from EB13 to EB05 and flashed to the updated version (fully loaded). When I went to activate my launcher pro back on my phone, whenever I tried to add a LP Widget, it would tell me it would need to force close. I was never able to add the widgets that I use all the time. I ended up flashing back to EB13 and version 1.0.2 and since haven't had a problem.
I'd really like to update to the most recent version, but also would like my launcher pro to work... Is this a known issue or am I doing something completely wrong and just don't know it...

The only LPP widget that doesn't work at the moment is the bookmark widget. You can work around this by putting the stock EC05 browser in /system/app, but keep in mind you'll get the checkerboarding and window limit back.
If it's not the bookmark widget giving you trouble, something else that isn't ROM-related is the issue. Out of curiosity, why did you get Fully Loaded if you don't use TouchWiz?

Come to think of it, I think the first widget I tried putting back on using LP was the bookmrk widget...
And I actually didn't have fully loaded at first, but didn't realize the standard came with launcher pro, and when I restored my backup, my phone went into super freak mode because my LP conflicted with the preloaded LP. It was force close mania. So I went to fully loaded that didn't have LP loaded on it.
I think I'll try updating it first thing in the morning, and I'll live without the bookmark widget if need be. And I think I'll try out TW as well... I'll post how everything works!

Don't waste your time. Only rjmjr69 uses TouchWiz.
Everything is working great! At first my restore put the bookmark widget back on and caused a few issues, but I quickly removed it and haven't had any problems since!
Thanks for your help!

Hello everybody,
i've a strange problem with Google Calendar, the MIUI Rom (developer 1.8 and stable 2.3.5) and my HTC Desire HD.
I specify that i've already searched on the forum for similar issues and i've already posted on a couple of italian forum, but i've found nothig...because i'm a noob but not a nasty noob
The problem is this:
Google Calendar badly syncronize the week-end (only the sunday) of one of my calendars.
It moves forward of a week or two the events that are on a sunday.
So, i find sundays without events, sundays with 2 events and all the sunday's events moved forward...
I have 3 caledars.
This one is the one with my job turns and it's the only that has problems.
I created it using some features of Google Calendar, just like "repeat every 7 weeks" and so on...
I started experiencing this problem when i switched to MIUI Rom (developer).
When i was using the stock HTC Rom everything worked well.
I've just made a full wipe and flashed the MIUI rom Stable, but the problem is still there. Even if i haven't restored calendar data with backup tool.
I've tried to delete "Calendar Archive", "Google Calendar" and "Google Calendar Sync" data and cache, but when it syncronize again the problem remains.
That's kinda weird and disappointing....
It seems a problem of the calendar itself...
I hope you can help me!
Thank you!
A little update, if someone's in interested or willing to help.
I've done a full wipe and i've changed ROM, switching from MIUI to CyanogenMod 7.
I've reinstalled all the apps from scratch, from the market, not from Titanium Backup or similar.
Anywaym i still have the Google Calendar issue.
I suppose it's related to the calendar itself but i don't know what could cause it.
I'm going to change the weekends in the calendar, avoiding to create them with "repeat every X days" and trying to do a singular event for every day.
Any suggestion?
Someone else has experienced that?
Thank you!

I would try a non CM based rom. As MIUI is built off the same code so any issues MIUI has will most likely be on CM roms as well.
Thanks!
You're right, i didn't think about it...
It's a shame because i really love CM and i like MIUI too...
I think it will try to recreate from scratch my calendar, without any "repeat", first of all.
If it's gonna work...good for me
I don't wanna leave CM just for a calendar issue...
I'll let you now the results of my tests!
Bye.
As i imagined, if i cancel all the events on the sundays and i re-create them without using any "repeat any X days" it works well and the bug is gone.
It's kinda strange and silly but i'll take it as it is.
I hope this will help someone else with similar problems.
Best regards.
Good morning,
New boy alert!
I installed the OxyZM 1.2 ICS ROM yesterday. First attempt at rooting any phone. Have to say I am very glad I did. The ROM is fantastic and very fast. But, I have a problem. I'm not sure if it is something I have done but I need a little help please.
Basically, I cannot re-arrange my apps, cant move them from screen to screen or move them drop them on a screen from the drawer. It's worth noting I could at first (hence why I think it may be something I did). Also, a long press on my screen no longer brings up the option to add a widget etc.
Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks,
Tony.
Strange, try to install different launcher and see if that works. (Go Launcher EX for example)
Thank you,
Would you recommend this?:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1559317
Never used it so cant really recommend.
OK, thanks anyway.
I installed it and I was indeed able to move my apps again. Out of curiosity I wiped the Halo Launcher data and my apps could be re-arranged again!
With the holo launcher, go to playstore and update it coz i think the 1 in that rom is older. (i think) lol

Yeah when I installed the ROM a splash screen asked if I wanted to download the update from the Play Store so I think I'm up to date.
Thanks for your help mate.
Hi there,
I've been a long time lurker on the forums here, having used CM9/10 on an old Galaxy S and now using the amazing resurrection remix on my shiny new Note 2.
I'm not even sure if this is the right place to post, but if not feel free to move and identify as required where questions should go!
Long story short: Using the above rom, and Nova Launcher Prime (bought, not stolen - well worth the £2.50) I have issues whereby on reboot certain apps disappear from the phone. The only evidence is the launcher on the home page but when pressed it says "app not installed"
The offending app is ES File Explorer (may be others but I've not noticed), and I have tried a clean re-install of the rom / wiped all cache etc and the problem persists.
I'm guessing it's a launcher issue, but was wondering if anyone else had identified this issue with the above rom / app combo as it would seem a fairly popular combo.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Sorry for the bump, no one got any ideas?
From looking around, it seems a known issue with android 4.1.1 / 4.1.2 but no one has any experience with similar issues?
Really don't want to have to go back to stock Touchwiz
