I have installed the following stock ROM on my wildfire.
RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Radio_13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed.exe
However I get the Froyo wallpaper and nothing else on the screen. (everything else works OK)
Previously I had the default Sense widgets with weather and a large digital clock and five home pages, etc. which I liked.
How do I get these back?
Is your device S-OFF? In that case, you will need this fix:

Hey, I recently used the method for installing a gingerbread keyboard on my Desire from here: levelx.me/technology/android-technology/android-2-3-gingerbread-keyboard-for-htc-desire/
however after following the instructions it didn't appear in the menu's or if i tired to long press to select input method. It also messed with all my icons and widgets, totally removing my music widget from my homescreen and changing how the icons were displayed (massive gaps between an icon and the one above it) I was wondering if there is any way to undo this install. I had a look round and couldn't really find anything (either that or my searching fails horribly). If anyone knows how to uninstall a single zip that would be great because at the moment the only way round I can see is to re-flash.
PS: I checked in my applications and it didn't appear there either
Cheers
You have to enable it in settings-keyboard and language. If you already did that and it still doesn't work it didn't install.

Ok thanks alot. Used a different method via downloading an .apk file for it works a charm now
Please! I need help getting my stock weather/clock widget back. I tried to flash the animated flip clock port from the desire, and after it said it was done installing, after a reboot of the phone, my stock clock is completely gone. When i go to my selection of clock widgets, all that's there is the one digital clock to choose. It doesn't even show the animated flip clock that i flashed. Before attempting to get this animated flip clock working, i did backup my phone completely using MYbackup.{data and all} So i tried going back to MYbackup and restoring just the homescreen to get the clock to return, but no go. I really don't know where to go from here. Can anyone help me recover the weather/clock widget that came with my evo? And also, can someone give me detailed instructions on how to get the animated flip clock working on my evo? Please! any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Reflash the rom, wipe dalvik cache 2x and cache 2x. Leave data alone. Should be ready tog o.
And next time you try to change system files, do a nandroid backup. Using MyBackup or Titanium Backup won't recover changes made to the system.
Hi, thanks for responding. I'm really new at this whole rooting/flashing thing, and the Evo is my first Android phone. So i need a little guidance, sorry. Can someone walk me through how to flash the rom, as i have alot of data and programs that i don't wanna lose if at all possible. I just want to get it back to the state it was in before i tried to flash the animated flip clock widget. The stock clock intact. And again, thanks to all that try to help. Ps...Is it possible i've totally lost the clock? No recovering it?
Hello all,
Sorry for posting here....although I have followed the forum, I have not posted much and cannot post yet in the development forums.
1. I installed LeeDroid..its a great ROM! (thanks) I flashed the sense 3.0 add-on a couple of times through the CWM 3.0.2.6 but the sense is still 2.1. What am I doing wrong?
2. How to I flash the radio? I have S-off and Eng-off..my CID is HD_001 (I can change it to 1111111 if needed). Please let me know.
3. Is there an Arabic add-on for the latest leeDroid rom (this would be awesome)
Thanks!
Bump!
Anyone knows the answer?

1. For now, Lee's patch is the lockscreen, weather & mms. He did indicate he was playing with rosie 3 and wdigets from SEO's thread. Never know, he may make a updated patch for us.
If you have any problems (FCs, weather not syncing and so on) try to do a data partition wipe or go to Settings -> Applications -> Mnage aplications -> All apps and clear data of these apps:
HTC Weather Sync Provider
Weather Provider
HTC Sense
Messages
Please avoid restoring titanium backups of above applications

2. Read this and all warnings: [RADIO][LATEST: 26.09.04.11]The HTC Desire HD Radio Thread
DL the correct radio
check md5 (ensure the checksum matches - not corrupted - on the above thread). If It's in a zip, extract, you want to check the radio.img file.
Place the extracted radio.img into the sdk folder where the fastboot.exe is located
Use CMD to navigate to that folder ie. cd\program files\android\android-sdk\tools\ (yours might be slightly different, but you get the idea)
Connect phone to pc, USB debugging enabled, Edit: Charge only mode
type " fastboot reboot bootloader", wait a minute, phone will boot into FASTBOOT USB
type "fastboot flash radio radio.img"
Reboot phone, you can check version menu / settings / about phone / software information
You don't need to worry about RIL's, as the RIL is provided in the ROM for ......11_M2
3. Not too sure about the Arabic patch yet, I'm sure Lee will get around to it soon enough.
Weather Problems (Lee's)

Im having a similar problem, my weather never ever syncs properly. I click into weather update and its brings in the weather then as soon as i change screen it dissapears and doesnt come back.
The above doesn't work for me. Ive tried this process a few times now, each time its just removes all my apps from the 7 screens and reverts back to the stock setting.
How do you make the weather work properly? Its so annoying.
I got the exact same issue with the weather, any fix ?
Thanks a lot
force close issues with rosie 3.0
I just did a full wipe today to flash the LeeDroid 3.1.5 w/ kernal 3.1.6. I am running the recommended radio aswell. I flashed the sense 3.0 kingdom and flashed rosie 3.0 after. all from Lee's OP. Screens worked well and looked great, but when I tried to start playing with the widgets I got force close from Rosie 3.0 everytime. Tried a fresh wipe and reflashed again and cleared cache from sense and still had same force close problems. So I went the 3rd round without rosie installed and everything is working normally. I havent tried installing w/o sense 3.0 all-in-one.
I think this problem is related possibly to the problems in this forum so I thought I would share. Think it needs a little work but I really liked the addon, so I hope it is resolved..!
I had the same issue with the weather when I first starting the using sense 3.0 patch. Deleting all data for the weather app fixed it for me
Settings -> Manage Applications -> All -> Weather -> Clear Data
For good measure I also cleared the data for anything else relating to weather (widget, provider, agent service, etc) but you might just get away with just clearing data for the weather app itself

You are not doing anything wrong, sense in leedroid remains 2.1 despite the addons/mods you are applying because those are not full sense 3.0 but just parts of it.
this sense 3.0 weather app has got me exhausted, really.
i tried so many tips and tricks but again it force closes.
it never comes up on lock screen.
why don't they fix it soon ...
Hi. Cudnt ask this in the ROM thread so hope someone here can answer. Flashed the latest Sparkplug ROM. While setting up my screen I noticed there wasnt a music app. I thought maybe I froze it but the ony thing available is a music widget. When I expanded the zip using 7zip I see data/app contains htcmusic.apk but cannot find it anywhere on my phone. Cannot access the widget from the home screen widget setup cause its not listed as a widget.

That may have been removed or broken in the process of optimizing the ROM (I can't speak for the developer, hopefully he will have a better answer). For now, you can install something like Google Play Music which works well on Sense ROMs. The only thing it will lack that the HTC music player has is lockscreen controls.
Edit: You say htcmusic.apk is in /data/app/ ? It should be in /system/app/ to work, if my thinking is correct.
I think I know what the problem is. You need to boot into recovery, format /system, then re-install the ROM.
back story:
I managed to pick up another inc today and flashed Sparkplug to it, I'm planning on setting it up for my wife. I had the same problem, music and many other of the HTC sense apps were installed, though they did not show up in the menu, and the sense widgets didn't show up in the widgets menu either, something was definitely up with the Sense UI stuff, though the phone ran fine and some of the apps (like flashlight) worked just fine. I had rooted, downgraded, and gotten s-off, then installed the ROM. I had done a factory reset but I had not wiped /system, and that was the problem I think. I installed the ROM the first time with ClockworkMod recovery (I figured that would be needed for s-off to work).
Anyway, I installed TWRP recovery (because I like that better), wiped /system, cache, and dalvik, then installed the ROM again (did NOT do a factory reset this time). As I suspected, all the HTC apps are there and work now, including the music player. I highly doubt usinc TWRP or CWN will make a difference, but I think you need to format /system and reinstall the ROM.
Ok. I tried it. Formatted the system & reflashed. Music APK still was not available but the music widget was. Then I installed ADW launcher & the widget disappeared. So if I want music, I cant use ADW. Think ill just head on back over to touch of blue.
music.apk on Sparkplug
Noticed the same thing here. Anyone know where to get music.apk and how to properly install it? Thanks.
Edit: Never mind, found the answer. I can't post outside links yet so... Google "612827 need music apk file" and that should get you a link to androidforums.com. It's for the Galaxy but the file identified in comment #5 worked for me. Just ran it from my Internet browser using "file:///sdcard/Music.apk" and everything worked. Hope this helps the OP if he is still looking for an answer.
So I'm sureim not the only1 with the problem, when updatingto the newest Sense Home Update, the launcher itself works fine, but All articleson Blinkfeed disappear and even when clicking the buttons to search for content or add content, it doesn't do a thing... Does anybody know of a fix for this??
I've tried everything, wiping data, cache, I've even tried on a completely clean flash of rom (NuSense7), and still nothing...
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Found the way to fix it , (actually I Didn't find it) , credits to @Flyhalf205 for discovering this fix: before updating sense home, edit build.prop line : ro.product.brand- Verizon, to ro.product.brand HTC
