GenieWidget from Tab

Great widget.
Launch it from the launcher (select "News and Weather" or any other language equivalent) or place it on your desktop (Widgets -> "News and Weather")

Thanks! Any different to the default nexus one genie widget?
Have you noticed any other cool apps/widgets from the Galaxy tab? Thats what you mean by "tab" right?

Did a search on Nexus one genie widget, and it appears to be the same.

Mostly the same apps as on the Galaxy S. The only new apps I could find were a digital photoframe and the Zinio reader. With a little mod I managed to get the first one running on my device. But it's clearly for a 1024*600 resolution, so it's practically unusable. I'm working on the Zinio reader, but then again, we should see a Android version soon from Zinio: http://gb.zinio.com/splash.jsp?code=android

nice widget this genie, thx.

I was looking for this app flap
thanks

[Q] Digital Clock widget not working on EH17

When I switched over to EH17, I noticed the digital clock widget (the one from the Galaxy S2) doesn't show up in my widgets drawer anymore. It's in system/app like before; it just doesn't show up. It use to show up on EG22 and other builds. Is there any reason, or any way to make it so the widget shows up?
I know a few people had this problem, btw.
Thanks.

Anyone have an idea?

Try this one. I've had this running on my EH17. It looks like the one from the SGS2.

Are you using Touchwiz launcher? Lots of Samsung widgets only show up on twlauncher.

Yup. I'm on fr4gger's TW4.5. I had trouble with getting this widget to work like everyone else. Tried all the different versions others posted in the forums, then took to google. I found this one in either rapidshare or megaupload that for some reason worked for me on EH17. Can't argue with the results.

Maybe it won't work on twlauncher above 3.0.

Maybe. Still, I'm not going to look a gift-horse in the mouth. I have not found anyone else who's able to get this widget working on TW 4 with EH17.

The most beautiful weather lock screen

Synergy makes the best weather lock screen out.

when you open your phone the weather items come at you almost like 3d.
Anyone know how to mod this to work on the SGS2 Touch? Would be truly awesome.

Looks nice, it'd be great if it was possible to port or something to this phone.

This requires HTC Sense. I worked on some of these in the past but until someone ports Sense to the Epic Touch your probably going to be out of luck.

That's more of a feature mod for HTC Sense. Hopefully, when swamp golbin gets his Epic Touch and ports sense we'll get to see that beautiful lockscreen

Try beautiful widgets. VERY nice to weather widget

Be Weather looks amazing. But I see it's using Weather Underground data. Since they were bought buy The Weather Channel Companies a couple weeks ago I bet they're going to stop support.

Thanks. Been using be weather. It is pretty awesome. I like the option to place weather in the status bar and drop down. Cool stuff.
Wish the original maker was still making this awesome weather lockscreen.

I tried it out and while it is pretty cool, I did not see an option for a transparent widget. Only way I can use a weather app with a widget on my homescreen since I want to see my wallpaper as well. Mind you I am talking about the free version. The pro might have it but I didn't want to pay to find out that such a widget did not exist for this app.

Would love to see the S3 notification toggles on the Nexus

I had the Galaxy S2 before my Galaxy Nexus, and one little silly thing I liked on the S2, and now seeing the S3 has improved it even better, is the cool looking notification screen toggle widgets.
I am running CM9 now, and it has the toggle widgets, but they look lame, the S series just has a better looking design, etc...I thought the Galaxy Nexus would have copied the S2's toggles and be a stock ICS feature, surprised it is not even in the phone stock. Didn't Google realize that notification toggle widgets are a must have nowadays ? A feature that should not have been left out in my opinion.
Anyways, do you think it would be possible to port over the S3 toggle system to the Nexus, or no way ?

requires touchwiz framework.

That's what I thought, oh well. Still surprised Google did not include these cool notification toggle widgets as a stock ICS feature. I remember when I first turned on my Nexus, I was like, hey where are the toggles ? I looked in settings, and couldn't find them, LOL

Why's that? No stock version of Android has had those toggles before. Stock Android is not packed full of the same features as the "skins" or "frameworks" offer.

I know, but doesn't mean Google shouldn't have added them. They are now a pretty standard common feature on most phones, why not just add it to be a stock feature in ICS ?

[Q] Looking for ROM with nice weather/calendar lockscreen

Just got a GNex yesterday which is quite an upgrade from my HTC Desire. Back on the Desire I was running the BCM rom which had a nice white weather icon and calendar icon and text that fit the rest of the theme really well. Can anyone recommend a ROM that has nice looking weather and calendar options on the lockscreen? The threads sometimes don't mention this info. I tried the AOKP but was disappointed by the lack of weather icons and the way it's displayed.
Also I was wondering which kernel everyone recommends that has CIFS and allows for the color calibration? I tried the AOSP but it had some cifs issues that caused file explorers to freeze. I also tried Franco's that someone else compiled with the CIFS but it doesn't have the color/gamma hack.

Xenon HD has weather and I think they mentioned calendar for next release.

Aokp has weather and calendar on lock screen options.

CM9 have weather and calendar lockscreen options.

I like the AOKP weather, also. Calendar is OK, but the rest of the rom customisations make up for it.
If you liked the four buttons on your HTC, you can add those back with AOKP also, and then some.

Yeah I'll try that one next. I didn't before because I didn't quite trust the "nightly's"
Can you add any menu buttons on nav bar in cm9? The big one or small ones on the side?

Nav bars are customizable.
