I still have my clear W. widget from my hero, and it does install but it shows the regular one. There must be a tweak in the EVO OS to allow the transparency.
adb remount
adb shell
rm /system/app/GenieWidget.apk
exit
adb push /path/to/GenieWidgetClear.apk /system/app/
Then go to /system/app using root explorer or something and click on the apk to install it...at least what's how I do it. Then I remove it from /system/app...

That worked, thanks
For those following this, you need to rename the download apk from GenieWidgetClear to GenieWidget. If you dont do that before pushing it, it wont work.

You're welcome...I didn't have to rename it though, but as long as it works, that's all that matters.

On a side note, how does someone with such a signature...NOT use ANY punctuation?...
Does anyone have one with 25% transparency? 100% is fouling my mojo.
What does this do? Screenshots?
EDIT: Never mind. Thanks for this!
NOTE: I don't have an original geniewidget.apk in /system/app
Thanks will give it a shot once i get home.

Sorry for digging up an old thread, but does anyone have one that is compatible with froyo? This one always crashes.

Is there a way I can remove Autokiller from fresh's 2.1 ROM?

maybe?

np glad it worked
you can remove it though adb using the command
adb remount
rm com.rs.autokiller.apk
Just a quick tip: Anything that CAN be removed from controls in the phone are located in /data/app. Everything that CAN'T be removed from controls in the phone (eg. requiring ADB) are located in /system/app.
You can also use an app called root explorer to delete stuff you dont want.

Hope this isn't against protocol. I posted this in the "HOWTO" thread, but in the event there are people that don't venture into that area...I think it looks pretty nice and it's customized for the Evo.
Here's what I'm using...
I had to cut it down significantly from my original plan because of the boot speed...but this lines up pretty perfect on my Evo. Here are the links if anyone wants to download themselves:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/jadhnz2m3my/bootanimation.zip
http://www.mediafire.com/file/wmnz2ntnxry/SPC_animation_final.mp3
Pretty sure you have to be ROOTED for this to work (I am).
adb remount
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource
adb push SPC_animation.mp3 /system/customize/resource
adb shell reboot

Good Morning, This was pretty cool so I thought i would do it. Just one thing to add about your adb instructions. Pushing the mp3 is missing "_final".
It should read
adb push SPC_animation_final.mp3 /system/customize/resource
Again thanks
Can this be installed without adb? And if so how please?
I love it so cool. Can the sound be taken out as well tho?

I don't believe it can be done without adb. Unless you found a way to navigate to /system folder.
and by not pushing the sound file(.mp3) the sound will be taken out.
I love this nice job!
you can use root explorer if you like..
Besides the fact that it says Droid I like it..it may be my ROM but I had to change the sound file to android_audio.mp3 to get it to play.

Hmmm that is weird...The actual mp3 was just edited from an incredible boot up when the file WAS named android_audio.mp3. Glad that you got it figured out, though.
please help
i dont know what im doing wrong but every time i try to push the bootanimation.zip i get
cannot stat 'bootanimation.zip' :no such file or directory
and i have both the bootanimation.zip and the mp3 file in my tools folder and help would be greatly appreciated thanks in advanced

Terminal Emulator app in the market will do this.
su
cat /sdcard/download/bootanimation.zip > /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip
Tried that using beterterminal and I get an access denied error read only???
From adb I get cannot stat no such such file or directory "bootanimation.zip"

I have never used beter terminal. Try the terminal emulator from jack palevich. It is in the market place for free.
Denied access, read only in the emulator sounds like you didnt put in 'su' first. Once you enter type su in the prompt should change to #
your adb error sounds like you need to either mount the sdcard or change it to charge only.
I put the files in there but the damn SPRINT animation which I hate with a passion keeps playing. I can adb shell into my phone and see the files in /system/customize/resource but it doesn't pick it up automatically. Is there anything else I need to do to get rid of the SPRINT one?
I am rooted using the 2 root safe versions of the OTA updates, but otherwise stock build. I have also tried using the boot animation replace utility someone else on here developed ... it says it worked as well ... but then the stupid sprint one plays. Any ideas? I have a bunch of stuff in my resource folder I also have these files in my customize folder:
AAInfo.txt
COMMON.xml
cid_map.xml
resource
1_00_sample.xml
CID
mccmnc.xml
MNS
default.xml
mns_map.xml
I didn't know if maybe one of these tells it to point at the sprint boot instead of the custom one I put in... ?
what would be cool is if at the end when it says droid the word evo falls from the top and crushes the droid word. lol just a suggestion.
**EDIT** Problem resolved.
By the way I got mine to work, I had to boot into recovery and adb mount /system in order to get it working...
My favorite is the decepticon one but it is too small and I couldnt get it to work after resizing the png's and modifying the text...

It would be better without the Droid part! Can you do one?
**EDIT**
Never mind, i just deleted the EYE folder and edited the .txt, but now i have one question,where is the original botanimation.zip located? i push yours to /system/customize/resource using root explorer (since i hate adb shell) and it didn't ask for overwrite so...it wasn't there.
This has potential to ber the best boot animation around but I don't like how it says droid. That's the only thing keeping me from switching right now.

I'm using darch's Froyo to test it out, and I like it so far. However, I don't like Gallery - takes forever to load photos.
I'm assuming that since the HTC album app is stock based on Sense, that it won't work with Froyo.
What do you guys use or recommend as a photo viewer on Froyo?
My personal favorite (other then HTC) is the Gallery 2d, yet, it is very elusive. So if you can find that, give it a shot!
Regards,
Tee Jay
I spent a good amount of time searching for the 2D gallery because the 3D gallery is garbage on our phone.
I'm attaching it here in the hopes that it helps others.
I used the following to get it installed:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/Gallery.apk
adb push Gallery.apk /system/app/
adb reboot
There might be other efficient ways to get it installed, but this is what I used. Hope it helps someone!
Awesome, thanks a lot for following up on my post. I'm not going to use this right this minute because I'm on SenseUI, but when I go back to Froyo , I will certainly use it.
Thanks,

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! The 3D version (although it looked great), was just way too slow for loading more than 10 pictures.
If I push this gallery through adb using these commands, will this remove the current gallery, and where on my sd card do I need to place this to push through adb?
Thanks.

yes it will remove 3D gallery with that command.. and you dont put the apk on your sd card to push.. put it in your androidsdk tools folder on your computer and then push...
or you could avoid all of that and just download the apk to your phone and use astro, linda file manager, or whateva you normally use to install from there..

To install it you need root and knowledge of adb. Then use these commands
Code:
adb remount
adb push qhdkeyboard.apk /system/app
adb shell
su
chmod 644 /system/app/qhdkeyboard.apk
Then reboot

If you have Root Explorer you can copy it to /system/app after mounting R/W and the long press and change permissions to RW-R--R-- and reboot
is it possible for the atrix users to somehow extract the skype skin they have ....was playing arouind with one today and much prefer the white and black skin they have to the blue one...
with gimpsta you can make your own Sense's skin keyboard then you just have to install an apk
search gimpsta on google

What do you mean exactly?
Are you installing using a flashable zip or the application?
A flashable zip is the easiest way so you can edit the installer script to place it in whatever directory you wish.
I never use the apk tools themselves for installing.
You can also boot to recovery and mount system.
Then from terminal, EX:
Code:
adb push MyCoolMod.apk /system/app
Let me know if that helps, or if you need more info, or are deadset on using that app to install and we can go from there.

After you push to the /system/priv-app folder, did you reboot? That should have installed it for you. Might also be a permissions problem. Make sure the permissions on your file are the same as the permissions on the rest of the files in that folder.
