Hello, guys!
I managed to mod an application to have a transparent background and it worked just fine, so I decided to share it with you.
This is the new News and Weather Widget from Google that works on Froyo and above on every ROM and every device. It has some new features such as displaying more information on the weather by clicking on the weather icon within the app (as you can see in the first picture) and a cool cerulean highlight effect when pressing on the widget.
Since 1.3.11 from Jelly Bean, it was updated to improve freshness and power consumption.
*UPDATE*
Updated GenieWidget to 1.3.11 from Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. Now you can choose between 2 glow colors when pressing on the widget on the home screen: ORIGINAL BLUE or MIUI ORANGE!
Thanks to c3k for providing the Jelly Bean apk and to YOU FOR DOWNLOADING IT MORE THAN 10000 TIMES! I started sharing it just for fun, how could I've ever expected it? Thanks! :fingers-crossed:
*INSTRUCTIONS*
Uninstall any previous version, if any (if it's a system apk, remove it using Root Explorer or any equivalent apk);
Download the version you desire (BLUE glow or MIUI glow);
Push it to /system/app with adb, or just copy it to your sdcard and install it as a regular apk;
Enjoy!
*TROUBLESHOOTING*
Having troubles or force closes? Please, remember that this is just a mod, I'm not the author of the original apk, so make sure your problems are coming from my mods *only* before asking! If you can't see anything wrong with an original GenieWidget version, please uninstall GenieWidget, reboot to recovery, clear caches, reboot and try installing it again.
*CHANGELOG*
11-15-2011: Initial mod from ICS 4.0.0;
02-07-2012: Updated mod to 1.3.04, from ICS 4.0.3 which now includes ICS themed tabs and minor graphical changes overall. It also supports HD resolutions (e.g. Galaxy Nexus);
07-23-2012: Updated to 1.3.11 from JB 4.1; added MIUI variant; removed ICS versions.
06-15-2016: Discontinuing project since Google stopped supporting GenieWidget.
Thanks Works Great!!

Did you have a previous GenieWidget? Uninstall it and install it again, it should work!
Works great for me! He he, Thanks.

I made this, but result isn't change. Widget works, and app when starts - crash.
UPD: This isn't bug of this app, this is bug of cyanogemod. Because the same error in some another app, that connect to internet (Beautifull Widget - when search theme, etc)
thanks! looks great.
Hi im running onecosmic's port of ics on my i9000.
I couldnt find any options to set my widgets to transparent.
So im wondering if its ok for me to install this apk, assuming this apk was meant for froyo and gingerbread.
Edit:
Ive mistaken this for an ability to make all the widgets in ics to go transparent.
Is there a way to do this??

me too! thanks, though!
. 1 thing tho. This go launcher ex is a bit slower than regular ics launcher, zeam and adw launcher.
It would be awesome if i could edit the ics launcher to have all transparent widgets.

I'm really sorry, but there is no easy way. Happy news is you can get many transparent apps/widgets mods in this thread.
Sorry, I saw this too late!

That would simplify everyone's life, but backgrounds are built-in in the apks and need to be edited and 9patched, or decompiled, edited, recompiled and signed again. That's no job for a launcher, unfortunately.
*sigh*
But thanks for the link and comments

I'm trying to install the transparent version on my Galaxy Nexus with Astro. Looks like the existing has to be uninstalled. How do I uninstall as astro can't do it and when I try to uninstall with App Mgr it wont do it?

If that's a system apk, you can't just uninstall it. You have to remove it manually: use Root Explorer or any equivalent app and make sure /system is set as R/W. You'll find that in /system/app.
It is a system App.
Sounds like I need to root first, install root explorer, find and remove it and then install the transparent APK?

1.) CM9 Stocked Apollo music player - i am using Music app
2.) CM9 Stocked Gallery - I am using quick pic app

yes, just delete these apks from /system/app with a root granted file explorer:
- apollo.apk - Apollo player
- gallerygoogle.apk - Gallery (do NOT delete gallery2.apk, thats the camera)
- geniewidget.apk - News and Weather widget (installs with gapps)
Yes you can install the app named Titanium Backup and backup/delete the stock apps and can restore them again in future if needed.

Here is latest Swype Beta apk, I use it on Ace and Nexus 7. You don't need Swype Installer, just install as normal apk.
I put it as system app in Apocalypse ROM, not sure if it can update itself that way yet.

EDIT: Don't put it as system app, it FC's.
Was gonna ask how you got it to work as a system app as it forced close on me.
Always used Swype and the betas even better.

Yes, but when you install a Rom it leaves files on your sdcard, if the sdcards are swapped from the first boot those files will be left on the external sd. However, if you want me to delete it, I will.

Yeah, i changed back to original keyboard so the problem won't happen again.
A few more ideas: add seeders
Disable CPU Rendering
Change the hosts file to block ads(if you want i could send you mine)
I also have a cool S3 CM10 theme that also affects the trebuchet launcher!!(will add it when i use the computer)
And add Sony Walkman instead of Apollo
How to add these stuff:
For the theme just put it in /system/app and hosts extract it and replace it with the one in /system/etc.
For Seeder you can choose. You can add the apk file to /system/app or the longer but better way: download the seeder.zip attachment and extract it then open /system and add the files which are there to the rom (there are only two)
For the disable CPU rendering i don't really know how to add it to a rom but i will look for it lol and btw it is ONLY for kernel 2X as it won't make any improvements for 3X.
And for the Sony Walkman i need to test it first cuz i never tried it but i kinda think it'll work here is the link if you want to do it you're self http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804520

Here is the 2012-12-10: CM10 alpha3 2.6 and 3.0 kernel builds with sdcard swapped..
I will be moding this rom with a few apps and new boot animations.
Note: CM for Galaxy W is provided with no warranty. You are installing this software at your own risk. You may be violating your warranty.
Before you install CM10: Preparation (First three are optional. If you want to start fresh, these can be skipped)
Install AppBak from Market, run it and save a list of all your apps.
Install SMS Backup and Restore from Market, run it and backup your SMS history.
Install Call Logs Backup and Restore from Market, run it and backup your call log history.
Boot into CWM5 recovery. Make a full backup. You will need this backup later if you decide to go back to your previous ROM and data.
WARNING: Many apps will Force Close crash if you restore data from a previous ROM.
Install
Use CWM5 or CWM6.(You must have CWM5 on /sdcard first,Boot into recovery from your phone or turn off your phone then hold Up Vol,Menu and Power buttons
and when the Samsung logo comes up let go of Power button only,
Let go of the other 2 buttons (Up Vol and Menu buttons) when you see the ClockworkMod logo at the bottom of the screen.)
Warning: Only use this recovery to flash CM10. Otherwise, you risk bricking your phone!
Wipe data and cache.
Flash update*.zip.(Download below)
Flash gapps*.zip. You must flash gapps after every upgrade to CM10 since /system is formatted, wiping your previous add-ons.(Download below)
Reboot phone.
After you setup your Google account, reinstall the three apps from Market in order to restore most of your apps, call log and SMS history.
Warning: Do not restore backup data of system apps!
If you restore a bad backup with cached settings in telephony.db in data/data/com.*.*.telephony it can break MMS.
It seems that restoring backups can also break Calendar sync.
Upgrades
Upgrades from previous versions of CM10 are the same process as install, except you do not need to wipe anything. Contrary to popular belief, you do not need to even wipe cache and dalvik-cache when upgrading between CM10 versions. You only need to wipe if you are doing a major upgrade, switching to a different ROM entirely, or attempting to fix bugs caused by bad backups or corrupt app data.

This mod was originally created by talented Viet modders over Tinhte.com. I'm just sharing it with you all. This works perfect with latest CM RC as well as releases based on CM 10.1 like Avatar and PAC.
The mod will install :
-Xperia Launcher v2.0.5b
-Walkman player
-Acid Mod For Audio
-Clear sound+ And Audio FX
The file can be downloaded below and is installed via CWM. Clear cache and dalvik after. Also, uninstall DSP Manager for better audio tweak control. You can do this using any superuser explorer.
After install and reboot, choose Xperia Launcher as default, its a lovely launcher IMO.

Nice work.
Probably I will try to install this manually, because I'm on stock ROM and I already use this excellent launch for a long time with my previous phones!

Good news is this mod was created exactly for stock, though i never got to install it on stock. You can try to install it just back up first.
Try pairing this mod with Soundboost app from Playstore and its the sweetspot!

Sure you can.
Can i install this mod and then uninstall the launcher and the player ? Because i use Nova Launcher and PowerAmp
Tried it on Vanir 4.3 (based on CM 10.2), before and after installation of mod i did "wipe cache" "dalvik-cache" and "fix-permissions", another time i tried only "wipe dalvik-cache" and... AC!D is working, but only partially, Clear Sound+ is working but changing presets inside ClearSound+ app does'nt work with Walkman or any music player. I thought it was conflict with DSP Manager, but uninstaling DSP Manager through Titanium Backup gave me nothing.
I've similar problem with Universal Ac!d Sound Engine (this one for all 4.0+ devices) , Nooizy work, but partially too... Sound compression (first option/technology) is working, but bass boost/ second option and rest aren't working including equalizer. So, please fix it.
I'll try how it works on older Android versions, maybe i did sth wrong... if yes, just tell me again what to do (i'm noob at OG )
Thanks in advance.
I tried on differents rom and I have the same problem, but on stock ROM E97510D 4.1.2 I have found a strange solutions, before to open the walkman music player with the clearaudio+ effects I open the stock music player or the stock video player and turn on the dobly surround in the effects, go back end after I can use the walkman player and clear audio+ working,the same if I use the Sound Enhancements,if not working at the first time just repeat again the steps and work, I hope to find someone to fix this strange things on this mod. because I can say this mod working very well, I use an application called SoundBoost free on the Market, and I am very happy whit this mod,but I have to repeat every time the same steps.I think it is not a big problem because the mod. at the final work to me except this.

Hey, how did you turn on Dolby Surroround? From what I associate, it was "Dobly App" in AppDrawer, but after installing this Acid version i don't see the Dolby app... I can see it using Root Explorer (/system/app) or in Settings->Apps... but i don't know how to turn on Dolby Surround.
(If I'm not mistaken there is "snd3254" file, so probably SRS should work too...) Maybe I did sth wrong, if yes, give me some tips
Ok I try to fix this problem, I will give news in the future.
Guys if anybody is interested to this mod. I have found the fix for the stock ROM and stock based ROM ,after a lot of test and work finally I fixed the problem. First install the mod. like at the description here on xda, and after just change the lines on the build.prop
I tested by myself on different ROM , I am now with Epsilon v3 and Everything works well.
Ipa.decode=true to lpa.decode=false
tunnel.decode=true to tunnel.decode=false(this on Epsilon v3 not)
lpa.use-stagefright=true to lpa.use-stagefright=false
persist.audio.handset.mic=analog to
persist.audio.handset.mic=digital
Don't wipe cache and dalvik-cache after install this mod. if you do this you have a strange application update at every boot,just wipe data-factory reset, cache, dalvik-cache and come back to normal, no update application on every boot.
Don't use other equalizer, just ClearAudio+ or SoundEnhancements, uninstall FXmusic
widget and keep MusicFx, if samtime ClearAudio+ don't work just go in
App.Setting and close ClearAudio+ and SoundEnhancements, I don't have this problem but if you switch more time to one equalizer to another maybe you need to do this.
This is the final, I tested and I don't have problem, it's a little bit hard to modify the build.prop because it's to big and you can't see all the lines with Root Explorer but if you are a little expert you can do this on the PC like me, if someone need the modified build.prop for the E975 Epsilon v3 I can send but I don't know how upload the file, you neet to learn me and I can help.
This below is optional,if you want max audio change the kernel with FauxSound mod. or another that you know, but before to install Acid Mod. becouse after you need to wipe cache and dalvik-cache and it's not good for the reason above, o use SoundBoost, it work with this Acid Sound Mod. but for change the volume have turn the screen of, o use some widget, not a big problem, only when SoundBoost is on there is this problem, when is of no problem.
Sorry for my English but I am Italian.

I don't know how upload the applications but just download the apps. from the images above on the market and everything is ok, I change the volume with the Volume Control Widget and SoundBoost for the max audio, and after fix the lines on the
build.prop I got the stock Music player working with ClearAudio+ app,
For me this is the best Mod. I have tried on this phone, I tried everything I have found online but never I been happy.

Thanks to the modders have made this mod. and make me happy.
I don't know if I have posted something wrong, I am not expert on XDA, I tried to help some people that are not happy with the standart sound quality of this phone, if the installation go all right you are happy like me, gods job and sorry if it's a little bit hard to install this Mod, but it's normal, I think it's not easy to port all this things on a phone like this with really less support from the community.

This is for root users or i can instal it on my stock rom non-root
Sent from my LG-E975 using xda app-developers app
It's for Root user because you have to modding the buil.prop in root/system
This is another description for another AcidSound mod. I prefer this one.
Now I use the Acid Sound Mod. Universal v5 on Savvy v4 Rom because I use only ClearAudio+ app. and I don't need all the rest, no Walkman cause don't like to me, and no problem when I wipe cache and
dalvik-cache, I fell better with this, more stable and no problem, nowhere, I taken the app ClearAudio+ from the site Acid Sound because in the v5 AcidMod. the app. is missing and I use the stock music player, awesome.
You need root and recovery.
1- wipe cache and dalvik-cache and install the Mod. V5,
2- install ClearAudio+ and reboot, or
if you know how, take from the v8 mod. with the file headset.so in root/system/lib and install manual
3- adding this lines below on the buil.prop
#Sony*Xloud*&*Clearbass*+
ro.semc.sound_effects_enabled=true
ro.semc.xloud.supported=true
persist.service.xloud.enable=1
ro.semc.enhance.supported=true
persist.service.enhance.enable=1
ro.semc.clearaudio.supported=true
persist.service.clearaudio.enable=1
ro.somc.dmnorm.supported=true
persist.service.dmnorm.enable=1
ro.sony.walkman.logger=1
ro.somc.clearphase.supported=true
persist.service.clearphase.enable=1
#Resampling
af.resampler.quality=255
persist.af.resampler.quality=255
#Beats*Engine
htc.audio.swalt.enable=1
htc.audio.swalt.mingain=14512*
4- change this lines on the build.prop
Ipa.decode=true to lpa.decode=false
lpa.use-stagefright=true to lpa.use-stagefright=false
(this it's important to make ClearAudio+ to work with the stock music player, stock video player, games and maybe more, without the Walkman player) check all the lines
5- reboot and it's ready, you can wipe now cache and dalvik-cache every time you wont with no problem.
I know, it's not easy if not a little bit expert of android, but it's not difficult, just made a backup before and if something goes wrong you can restore, when the Mod. Is really well installed you can feel the difference, if not there is something wrong, for me the v5 is better than the v8, but it's just my preference, if you like v8 follow my old post, if you like this v5 follow this post.
If I have time I can make a zip. ready to install if someone need, just remember I am not a developer, I am a normal guy and I don't assume responsibility.

Speakerphone
Hi, I am currently using this v8 mod together,with the suggested corrections in build.prop. And I must say, that this has much clearer audio and bass then ViPER4Android! However, I have one problem with this mod. Everytime I am in a call, and I want to put the phone on speakerphone, I loose all sound on the phone and have to restart it to make it work. Anybody else have this issue or know how to fix this?

I had exactly the same problem with acid audio v7 on stock Rom. I am now on modified stock epsylon Rom.
