[Q] SGS2 Clock+Weather Widget - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just tried to install the SGS2 clock widget and also the Weather widget, but when I tried installing them i kept on getting this message:"Application not installed". I then tried moving it to system/app and it couldn't be moved. Any suggestions?

What did you uss to try to move it? You neex something like root explorer and click the upper corner to change it r/w.

I don't have root explorer, I really don't want to pay for it. Is there anything else I can use?

ES file explorer. Then go to the bottom of the settings and enable root explorer and system mount options.

Ok, so I moved the two apk's to system/app and when I went to widgets, none of the two widgets appeared. I then rebooted my phone but it still didn't show up.

If it is a Samsung Touchwiz app then forget it. You are on an AOSP ROM.

Have you looked at Beautiful Widgets on the market? It's skinable, super customizable, and has a clock/weather widget that is similar to what you are describing.

I looked at that and I really like those widgets, but I rather not pay for apps.

[THEME HELP] - Changing handcent icon

So i pulled the apk from data/app.
Replaced the icon inside like usual
Put it back to data/app. And it goes missing from the app drawer.
Tried putting it in system/app, and it says Handcent has stopped working.
Something im missing?
Non system apps have to installed, not just pushed. Delete your old one first our you'll get a parse error.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
So grab the apk, change the icons, uninstall handcent, push hte apk, INSTALL that new apk from data/app?
Yep. if all your doing is changing icons, why not use nova launcher and do it with no hassles?

Transferred over the com.handcent....apk from pc to /data/app
Ran the apk and installed it, says Application not installed when i try to install it.
Upload the icon and the apk file. I'll help if you like.

Thank you, heres the two icons i want thrown in, theyre both in the drawable-hdpi folder. Thanks. Ones the main icon for the apk. The icon_pink is to overwrite the pink notification choice u can choice as a icon in the app settings.
Does nova change the app drawer icons? If so,how?
I thought it could only change home screen icons

Nova doesn't do app drawer icons, only homescreen. They do keep even after an update though. For OP, there is something odd about this app. Even just decompiling/recompiling with no changes, and the app closes immediately after startup. No errors or anything, and logcat returns no errors. My only advice is to use Nova Launcher- you will not lose one bit of functionaloty or appearance (exactly like stock) and will gain a ton of features.

Awesome! Thanks Kenny!
i was messing around with ice cream touchwiz (on the epic touch) and noticed it gives lets you create folders inside the app drawer! if so, that is all i've been waiting for. I LOVEEEE Go launcher, but would want to try touchwiz if someone can confirm the folders in app drawer in our release!!

Pretty sure there are several launchers including the default one on CM9 that allow folders on the homescreen. On CM9 if you drop an app on another app it creates a folder.

accuweather transparent widget

Does anybody have the transparent widget that works with the ics update. I miss that... The blue color widget is horrible but the functionality is cool

here is the .apk for the semi-transparent weather widget. It's made to match the digital clock. i been using this with the stock rooted ics rom. i would show a screenshot but the i'm having trouble capturing a screenshot on a stock rom. amazing how i took that feature for granted when i had the option available in the advanced power menu in other roms.
just make sure to set the permissions to rw-,r--,r--
Almost forgot... this might go without saying for some.. but this gotta be pushed using root explorer. Don't try to install normally
my first ever custom apk... hope it works out for all
Would you happen to have the calendar version in semi-transparent ?

what i did was use root uninstaller app to remove the older one. there are 2 accuweather apps remove the one that is bigger in size. then use root explorer to drop the app in the system/app folder. reboot your phone and the app should be installed perfectly.
now simply add the new widget.:good:

Note 4 Weather

For TouchWiz Launcher ONLY
1) Clear the cache and data for both Unified Daemon and Weather
2) Uninstall both Unified Daemon and Weather
3) Copy and paste both Widget Daemon and Weather to system/app folder
4) Set permissions to rwx-rwx-rwx
5) Reboot phone
Only thing not working for me is theme tab.

It works on Nova Launcher though, I'm gonna try to figure it out.
It works for me, the only problem is gps location is not accurate, u have to setup manually and some of the cities is not available i guess since it isn't official yet..
