Hi every one,
I have a question. Is there a way to have the icons without being locked into their ugly buble after root?
I appreciate if any one can help
Thanks in advance
Yes delete them out of the theme apk. All the themes are in system/app except for the nest theme that's in system/framework then htc resources apk. ..in there there is 3 .pngs with the word container in them. These are the bubbles..delete the picture but leave the .png and name..resign and push back.

you can also run a different launcher. adw launcher or launcherpro they both are free on the market.
thanks for the replies, I want to root tomorrow.

I tried this one and even though it was for EVO it worked on my Desire.
I just can't seem to find the values to make it more transparent.
hi..
wondering if any devs would be keen to make a transparent version of the news & weather widget (GenieWidget.apk)
in addition, if it was possible to make it transparent AND use the HD icons from the Desire it would be the ultimate
see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=677269 for example

If you want a proper version from the GNexus making transparent let me know. I'll be more than happy to do it since I plan on theming it next anyway.

Sorry for the dumb question (I tried searching), but do I need to be rooted to install this .apk? I can't seem to install it. Am I missing something completely simple, or do I need to root to be able to completely remove the stock news and weather widget in order to install this one?
Thanks.
Transparent ICS Genie Widget
I didn't see the transparent widget from ICS ever get posted, so I fumbled around and created one. The version is 1.3.04(PROD). The background is 70% visible. FYI, the apk is zipaligned.
Install:
1. Download GenieWidget_trans_zipaligned.apk and rename to GenieWidget.apk.
2. Preferably using Root Explorer (you must be rooted of course):
a. Mount your drive as R/W.
b. Backup your current widget in /system/app/GenieWidget.apk
c. Copy the new GenieWidget.apk to /system/app/3. Reboot your device
Nice, I like the semi transparent version best, its not totally clear which looks bad on light wallpapers but not full black either. This looks good.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Denverg across on the Nexus S boards has also made a transparent genie widget, which I am using on my Galaxy Nexus. You should be able to find it here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1307646
They have also made transparent power control and music widgets to match.
If youre using AOKP rom you can get my theme which does this here

Download Android Pro Widgets- this is all of launcher pro's widgets
Don't know if anyone wants, but here's the latest version of Genie Widget (1.3.04 PROD - from ICS 4.0.4).
I've included a 50% transparent widget, and original stock. Install either of these zips in CWM to load.

I could probably make one. I'll work on it.
sorry to revive an old thread...
jst wanted to post a transparent GenieWidget.apk with HD Desire icons (see pic)
use Root Explorer to paste it into \system\app
*rename the existing GenieWidget.apk to something else for backup puposes*
set permissions to READ for Owner/Group/Others
set permission to WRITE for Owner
all other checkboxes should be blank
working fine for me on AKOP Milestone 5
Here is mine:
See attached apk. Just ask if you are going to use it in a ROM build or what ever. It needs to be installed to /system/app to work.
All images were re-created by me in photoshop from an old HTC apk, but some images are custom made by me because I didn't like the HTC versions of them.
Has Ice Cream Sandwich styled background for the menus, and uses the ICS Roboto text

Anyone know of a 50% transparent ICS Genie widget?
Hi all. When I had my LG G2, someone modded the homescreen weather widget to be transparent. I searched the threads and haven't seen anything mentioned for the G3, but I've seen a ton of other mods. So I was wondering if anyone here is working on this mod? Or I wanted to put in a request for someone who has the knowledge of how to make it transparent, to make one, if possible. I'm trying to stick with the LG launcher and I think a transparent SmartNotice weather widget would give it a much cleaner look. Thanks in advance. Btw, I have the Verizon variant. I don't know if it would only be needed for this phone or if an universal one could be made for all variants. If there are any files needed from the Verizon variant, then let me know. I'll pull and upload them if pointed in the right direction.
Edit: All credit goes to @KiakSvk for getting this solved for me. All of the work was done and created by him. I just modified some of his .pngs for my own liking on my own personal device, but he found the files and did all of the leg work, so make sure to hit his "Thanks" button if you plan on using his stuff. You can see a pic of his setup here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54907737&postcount=16. If you want to get the files he uploaded and change your SmartNotice to look like his, then you can find his post with the download files and instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54929497&postcount=25. The pic below is my final setup after modifying some of the files he uploaded.
I know it's not quite the same but if you use zooper there is a lg widget for that. Can't remember if there is a transparent one in the pack but if not would be easy enough to make transparent.
Is this the one?

Saw Zooper in the Play Store but its not transparent. But your pic in the 2nd post is exactly what I'm looking for. That one is for the G2 correct?

What are you looking for? I'm looking for a transparent weather widget with Smart Notice transparent and functional also. (That hasn't been done yet.) But if you're looking for a transparent weather widget similar to the one on the G2, then like the poster mentioned above, you can download Zooper from the market (you will have to buy the pro version), then you can download a G3 weather widget theme to go with it. They have a few transparent widgets like the one posted above.
It's gotta be possible to make the LG weather widget transparent, even the smart notice one. Anyone good with decompiling and editing apks? I can do it but I really don't like to.

Thanks for the recommendation, but I've purchased some great weather widgets over the years. I just want the stock weather widget transparent so that I can continue to use the smart card feature. I messaged the guy who made the transparent G2 widget, but he hasn't responded back yet.
No worries, let us know if you get a result
any progress? i mean if anyone made it? that would be great

Would be great to have the stock weather widget transparent. I'm aslo have been looking for this.

No. Unfortunately, the guy that I messaged who made the LG G2 weather widget transparent, never messaged me back. I actually was going to put a $10 bounty on this. Not much, but hopefully something will entice somebody to work on this.
Edit: I just edited my topic and post to let everyone know that I'm looking for the SmartNotice weather widget to be transparent and not the regular weather widget. If anyone wanted the regular weather widget transparent, then Zooper widget from the market has one that looks identical toLG's widget.

Themed and working smart notice widget.
It is also possible to make it transparent, but you will need some skills.
If you decompile the app, there are edits you can make to the files in the folders such as layers, xml, etc. Its just a matter of finding the right file.

There are a couple of LG Home themes that make the stock weather and smart notice transparent. Search for the Tahiti (blue, white, and pink) themes. I don't remember where I downloaded them but they do theme the weather and smart notices.
Dunno if it works for you guys but maybe it's worth a shot?

I have the same issue. I suspect it's to do with dirty flashing, rather than full wipe. I even uninstalled the toolbox, rebooted, and reinstalled it to no avail.

Fully transparent for me. Definitely.
I wrote [semi] transparent because maybe other people may like that better.
But, if no other requests than mine, then fully transparent please.
PS. Umm... no, I never recompiled apks before. Guess I have to do some reading first.

I heard it somewhere that HTC is using double layers and mockups this time. Whatever their reason is , thanks to people like you that we can enjoy our phones the way we want it.
I can confirm both transparent and semi-transparent mods work great on IC_4.0.2. Should be working on other 4.4.3 ROMs, too.
Thank you! I owe you a beer, but I can't see your paypal account.
