[REQUEST] Samsung Galaxy S Widget for Nexus One

I was wondering if it would be possible to port the widgets from the Samsung Galaxy S over to the Nexus One?
If there is anyone that would be able to do this please let me know (wltnkyl at gmail), I would be very interested in using these widgets on my Nexus One.
**as .apk please since my Nexus is not rooted and would prefer not to root at this time**
Thank you.

same wishes here

most likely it's a no. 99% of the time nothing can be ported from a custom UI.

or not

mm..i don't know..for me this is possible..
The launcher is ported fine..
certain, the social's widget no...because social hub is integrated in the rom, but watch and weather yes..

Was hoping to be able to use the news and weather one as it is the best I've seen. Would also like to use the contacts one, not sure about that one though as it might be tied into the custom contacts app.
If someone can get the news and weather to the Nexus One, as well as any others I would be very appreciative.
-also, downloaded and trying the Touchwiz launcher linked above, thanks for that. Just need widgets now!
edit: Installed the Touchwiz launcher ported by 'rolle3k' (great job), and it is working perfectly, no bugs that I have found yet. I recommend this to everyone out there that likes the look of the Touchwiz Android Launcher...

[Request] AOSP Alarm, Calendar, Contacts, Music, etc. apk's

Firstly for those thinking, "just get DarchDroid! It's already AOSP," I would first like to explore this option. I like Sense UI, just hate the lag associated with certain Sense apps and would at least like to try the AOSP versions before completely switching to a new ROM.
I did some searching, but couldn't find any sure apk's that will work on a CDMA Hero. The closest I found was some working for the EVO 4G (here), but I don't want to risk it not working on the Hero.
Is it possible for someone to pull some apk's from DarchDroid ROM and have them work on Sense-based ROMs?
Suppose there are working apk's, will they replace or coexist with the HTC apps?
Thanks in advance, and I apologize if this was already done.
Edit: found some apk's!
Edit 2: apparently I suck at searching; there was another thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=667715#7 but at least my thread has the DeskClock.apk

I feel your pain, or at least I did. I liked sense but hated all the lag such as the lag when scrolling threw contacts and SMS. All those little small areas where it would lag drove me crazy. I tried installing the apks from darchdroid but it didn't work so I searched it up. Got the same results as you. I had no choice but to go with darchdroid but I am more than satisfied now. Throw launcherpro on it and you wont regret it. AOSP is like a simplified less flashy version and I love it. I hope some one has a real answer for you though because I'm curious myself. Good luck.
Oh. If you do end up trying darchdroid, try out gomorrah's blackmod theme for it. It's sick.

Well, I managed to find the AOSP messaging app when I wasn't even looking for it! Go figure. It was in a thread talking about keyboard lag. Some claim that for texting, using AOSP messaging app has much less keyboard lag than the HTC messaging app. For those curious, it's here:

Oh and it looks like it replaces the HTC messaging app; they cannot coexist.
Edit: It also occurred to me that flipz included the AOSP alarm as part of his AOSP lock screen fix!

Much less lag. The messaging app is the only one that worked when I tried replacing them though. The phone and contacts apps were giving problems. I didn't know what to do so I just went with darchdroid. If you like sense, maybe there is a way to add it to an AOSP ROM. Maybe you can just try installing the HTC Sense launcher apk on darch's ROM.

Xperia Play Live Wallpapers

Does anyone have the PSP original and classic live wallpapers from the Xperia Play modded to work on other devices such as the Droid. I grabbed them off my wife's Play and tried to install them on my rooted Droid, which didn't work but the digital clock widget did. I've been searching everywhere but can't find any ports that actually work. If anyone has a link to working apks or would be willing to port them, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I'd really be happy with a flashable zip that would install them as system apps, but a non-system app would be fine too. Please and thanks.

[Q] How can I restore the stock email widget on a custom rom?

I have a custom Rom installed (NexusMod 2.0) and I cant seem to get the original stock Email Widget restored. I took a full Titanium backup and I see the Email 1.0 widget (which is striked out in Titanium backup) but when I try to restore it, it just sits there trying for a long time, never stops, even waited 10mins.
I found a few folks online that have posted the EmailWidget.apk (about 870k in size) but when I try to install it, it just tells me "Application not installed" Wondering if its trying to tie itself to the stock email client which maybe the NexusMod rom has a slightly different version or type of it? Not sure....
Id really like to get that one back since its about half the screen size widget and shows the last 3-4 emails when using the Native client (which I need to for my work exchange email).
Thanks

The problem is if that apk is odex and your custom rom is deodex. That's why it wont work. I don't know how to fix it that's beyond my skill level. I just figured out the problem for myself with some research. You can however try the new silver rom it has the email widget cuz it stock rooted rom odex. To get a better understanding of deodex and odex give it a Google.

Your right, i completely forgot about that. I will look into what it takes to say deodex just the email widget, or maybe look at other custom roms which are deodexed and still have the widget and see if I can port it into this one.

Yea I like that widget also and had the Same problem then I found the answer but go launcher has an email widget now that you can resize to fit your need but not sure if that will fit your needs but give it a check.

I just tried this paid one off the market and that didn't work. Seems like my IT blocks access to email with 3rd party apps. It just popped up and error message. So others probably will have that issue.
Damn, now I have to find a way to get the stock one working by deodexing it and see if that does it.

I think I found a rom with that apk deoxed,I don't know how to post an apk here but I found it in red sonja rom let me know if I can help.

i was looking at some nfl ones on the web someone made themselves
just wondering if they would work on my phone and how i would install them if they would
thanks

Ok your talking about dialer themes.
I have not played around much with the stock dialers on the one x.
However I have used rocket dialer, touchpal dialer and dw dialer. They all have themes available for them.
Someone with a bit more knowledge on the stock dialer would have to chime in on applying a theme to it.

ok thanks for your help josh i will check into the ones you used as well
