So I tried to get a couple of the Apps from the Asus Transformer working on my Xoom but I can't seem to get them working.
The Transformer and Xoom are both odex'd, so I didn't think it'd be an issue getting them to work. I tried the MyWater live wallpaper, and the Weather widget from the transformer. I copied them both to /system/app along with the .odex files and changed the permissions to what they are supposed to be via Root Explorer, but no go.
Does anyone have any insight? Is it possible?
Would it be tied to the framework like some have said people think there is a skin on it I have no idea but it could be possible anyone wanna give it a go?

Guys, anyone knows how to use the G-tab weather app in transformer? I guess some mods would have to be made since the resolution of the transformer is 1280x800. Would be great if someone could make the G-tab weather app into an apk file that could be installed on other devices (specifically the transformer).
Any help greatly appreciated.!!!!
Bump...anyone?
I'd like basically the opposite thing: the transformer weather widget for the gtab. I saw that an apk of it is available, but only works for honeycomb devices.
The problem with the gTab weather app is that it relies on the Home Screen from the gTab. Even on a gTab with a custom rom if you put on the weather.apk it will just force close without the TapnTap launcher.
I am pretty sure neither of those things work without a resolution of 1024x600.
Ok, so I've been really getting into theming my Transformer Prime, and like most people I think, get frustrated when I have to redo things after flashing a new ROM. I find using Nova Launcher to be pretty spot on with backup then restoring settings which, most times, will get all your widgets working correctly with little configuration needed from there.
So the only thing I'm really left with is a good way to change, backup and restore app icons. Nova launcher is good at restoring the icons for the home screen, however I'd like something that would change the default app icon for installed apps.
I found this thread on StackOverflow that states that you can change the app icon by just replacing the image for it -without- unzipping the apk. This is great in theory, however when you update the app to a new version you'll loose that customization obviously.
I'm looking for an app, that when run, will present a list of all installed apps, let you choose it, then pick a custom icon. The app would then change the apps -default- icon, meaning that change would propogate everywhere in Android, so you wont have to mess with setting different icons for your launcher, and launcher X widgets, and drawer would also get changed.
When you update your apps and run the app icon themeing tool then it would, again, present you with a list of installed apps and you could just choose the newly updated apps and change the icon again( or better yet the app would do that for you! ).
Anyways, I have no idea if this is possible. I'm not sure if the icon in the apk for an app are all standard named, if it is, this seems possible. If it's not, then if it's in the apks manifest file then you could extract the name of the icon, and copy the new one in it's place under the same name.
If either the icon names are always the same( doubt it ) or if it's in the manifest file this seems pretty doable to me.
What do you all think? Have you seen anything like this app out there? What do you do to change / restore app icons( system wide preferably, not just in a particular launcher ).
Vote above and if it gets enough traction maybe we can convince a dev to look into it. Obviously you'd have to be rooted, but I think most everyone would be ok with that
EDIT: I did find this thread, with a windows tool to do kinda what I'm talking about. If it had / has backup, restore for when you update apps then it would be perfect. Would prefer an on device app, but I'll take what I can get.

Really, no input here? Am I the only one wishing we had this?

For as long as I have had my TF101 I can never download files bigger than 3-4mb's. And what i do download never leaves my notification bar. I have deleted them, cleared all cache. Has anybody had these problems and resolved it?

Never had that problem im on Revolver 4.1.1 also, does this happen on Dolphin Browser HD ?
I am on Revolver 4.1.1 and I have the same problem. It does not matter which browser I use anything downloaded shows up in the notification and won't go away. Does anyone know how to fix this?

The problem continues. I did a full wipe and reinstalled but it didn't fix anything. After I download a pic from the browser it was stuck in my notification bar. It doesn't matter what browser I use to download an item. i even tried using an app called Downloader Pro.
Its seems that this issue will remain due to the lack of interest from others to lend possible help.
Good thing life will continue lol
What is the name of the memo pad app that comes pre-installed on the Exhibit II? I installed a custom rom and thankfully all those useless T-mobile apps weren't included, but the one that I actually used and loved isn't there. I remember the app icon having a T on it. And I can't find it anywhere in the app store.
I've tried other memo apps but I either don't like them or they have ads. That pre-installed one was just excellent.
Any help?
Thanks.
By the way, if I can't get this particular memo app back anyone have any recommendations for one that's similar? One that's tiny(in file size) and just plain simple. I don't need any kind of syncing or any other fancy features. Just want to open the app, jot down a note or two and be done with it. With no ads of course.
EDIT: Could have sworn I posted this in the Exhibit forum... So if mods want to move it there then that's cool.
Yeah, is there any way to get in on my galaxy nexus?, it just looks so awesome

Traitor!
Just kidding! Have you tried downloading CROMI and extracting the apk and then give installing that a try? I'm not with my backups now, but I might have the files needed in there (I know I have the static wallpapers in there, not sure about the live wallpapers).
Asus seem to put some checks in some of their apps. Sometimes they check that the device is on the correct DPI, others check the keys in the build.prop. So it's worth trying but don't be surprised if it fails and the app needs modding to get it working
