I want th eWeather / clock widget thats posted from the 2x I installed the apk file by downloading to the computer and adding to my phone then used appinstaller to install but it is not in my widgets. I do see it under my applications. Could someone please help me
It's in the Apps and themes section under LG apps or something like that. If you're not using a custom launcher like adw then then widget takes the entire screen. I am using MIUI Digital Weather, free on the market.

Right, I had this issue back on Froyo. I don't know why, but it only worked if I wasn't using a custom launcher. If you disable your launcher, it will work. I notice on 2.3.3 that LG calender widget doesn't appear on the widget menu.
I have the Stock LG camera on 2.3.3, zero lag.

Are you on 2.2.2 or 2.3.3?
Well, after pressing the button the camera has to adjust its focus and whatnot to take a good picture.

There is an almost identical one in the Market called 3D Digital Weather Clock. It will show up as a widget and works quite well.

That was the "almost identical" part of my comment. Sorry, I couldn't find an exact duplicate.
GO Weather is a similar widget and it's skinable to be flowery or several other things.

I created this thread so not to clutter the ROM thread with verbiage of add-ons. Thank you so much Darchstar for a great ROM !!
!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684202 ( ROM LINK )
Now that we have a great (AOSP ) ROM for our Hero’s, we can start sharing themes, launchers and many other add-ons that work and have been tested on the Darchdroid v2 ROMS. Hopefully this thread will grow.
Being the first I would like to share that LauncherPro Beta ( can be downloaded from the market ) . This launcher is great and very fast .. almost 100% customizable and can be set to have up to 7 screens …
screen shots of launchpro beta at work..
Agreed on launcherpro.. I was using helixlauncher at first but launcherpro seems faster.
Anyone find any themes that play nice? I have tried 2 so far and got boot loops on both.
As for launchers I'm partial to ADW Launcher for Darch's rom. It's quick and very customizable which is the best part. Has the froyo taskbar look with 2 customizable main shortcuts and an app drawer for additional apps. Also gives the nifty swipe left to right for the main app drawer ala iphone, and the SenseUI style jump out screen preview.
My favorite feature by far though is the ability to hide the notification bar. Gives a really nice way to show off your wallpaper, especially since you can set it so the home button shows and hides it again so you can still check it.
http://jbthemes.com/anderweb/category/adwlauncher/
EDIT : Also a question for everyone else.. is it possible to get the rotary lock on darchdroid? When the update comes out I'm probably gonna see if the metamorph for it will do it but I doubt it :/
Anyone check out Beautiful Live Wallpaper. Runs great on Darchdroid.

They have a weather skin called none to clear out the images on the widget so you dont always have 2 suns or 2 moons...I dont know if you really care but it irritated me having the repeating image.
How would a user go about using MetaMorph and this rom?

You'll probably need to be more specific. Are you on 2.1 or 2.2? Are you using the stock Moto Launcher, or a home replacement such as Launcher Pro or ADW?
Rooted 2.1 with stock Blur launcher only modified to have glowing borders.
Yeah here too... When I've tried to use it it says need to "Make the widget larger to add more tasks"...
Sent from my DROIDX cause it's got the GBs and the Wifis
Is it the widget that's crapping out? Or something else?
So what if you long press on it and drag the border to make it larger? I have it disabled, so can't check...
I had the same issue with the widgets. What compoundedthe issue was I started using ADW and lost the motorola widgets. I found a app called Bettercut that let me put direct dial or text right on the desktop with the contact picture. Works great and I can add direct text shortcuts which is something I use a lot. Best 2 bucks I spent

It just makes the blank blue contact picture larger.
Are you using custom launcher or Blur? It might not be playing nice with a custom one...
meshdub said:

I'm using Blur with colored png's. And Bettercut is basically the same thing as the shortcut widgets.
eh just saw you said that earlier in the thread, sorry..
I get the same problem when I try to use the moto contact widget while running ADW Launcher. When I revert to stock Blur, it works fine. Chances are the minor theming to BlurHome that you did, might make it think its not stock and therefore wont work? just a guess...
Flashing SBF and re-pushing my modified Blur makes the widgets work now. I don't know why they were crapping out on me...
You probably have the contact linked and its not pulling the pic. I had that problem with most of my contacts linked to fbook profile. The only way I could save a pic to the phone contact was to unlink the contact, add pic, then when I used in a widget it would have photo or not be blank.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Nope, none of my contacts are linked to Bookface. Only my Google account. And it would blank out every contact I tried to put on the screen. But like I said, the SBF flash fixed it. I don't know why that happened because I put my themed BlurHome back on the phone and the contact widgets are still working. Same thing was happening with the news widget too.
I loved to use adw in the past but recently the updates made it unusable for me... so i am looking for a replacement...
Maybe i should just stick to an old version of adw (i unfortunatly didnt backup mine before updating)
So what are you guys using?
Ps: and please dont tell me to google or "this thread already exists" coz i want new information
Yea, ADW has started crashing on ocassions, its really annoying. Dont know what alternative is good like this.
ADW ftw! Never had an issue with it.
I for one am interested in trying the LG Optimus launcher once we get Eclair. Im an organization freak so the customizable app drawer appeals to me. Also looking forward to trying Launcher Pro Plus with Eclair. Currently using ADW and have no problems.

Have you not tried the "group" feature in ADW? Open the app drawer and press the menu button - choose group - New catalog, name it, choose apps to be in it, then when you go into the app drawer you just press the menu button and choose your new group.
I had been using Slidescreen pro since last 3 weeks and with facebook and Google reader integration working with it,i have laid Timescape and the old ADW launcher to rest in peace.
I can assure you would get a different experience once you start using it........

damn i have to write somewhere in my profile that i started to code my own stuff when i was 15 years old ...
sure i tried to reinstall, delete settings, reset, just restart, play with different settings and i even tried to talk to it (j/k)... none of the things worked ...
can you do me a favor and try to press and hold the home key to switch between recent apps and then press the home key again?
everytime i do this i have to set it as default home again - this is way more annoying then the little crashes i experience all the time and for me it makes adw totally useless now ...

try LIVEHOME which is also a home screen replacement, nearly the same as adw but has a few more features, one of them is transitions, you can flick through you home screens like pages in a book (love it). Try it out.

ok after playing around a lot with settings i have to apologize to my beloved adw launcher
ok it still crashes a lot in the newer version but my main problem - that it cant remember the default home - is on the stock android homescreen too so i guess somehow my software is ****ed up *cry* ...
guess i have to reflash (god damnit this **** is more buggy then windows 95)
edit: btw livehome looks really nice ... i like that you can change the icons in the drawer
Update: after reinstall and some hours later i got crashes again and that home-button problem too.
Now i set only the adw-homescreen to "dont auto-rotate" and i have no problems now.

First off thanks to everyone from the various SGS forums for this, especially to fear2142.
This is the Touchwiz4 Launcher from the SGS2 ported to work with Galaxy Tabs running a DeOdexed Gingerbread based build (or latest Overcome based on GB).
Changes I made for the Tab:
Fixed XML's to support larger screen
Adjust size for workspace/edit screens
Set Launcher workspace to 6 rows/ 6 columns (fits good)
Set appdrawer to 6x6 layout as well
Adjusted to allow 5 shortcuts on bottom bar
How to install?
This is a CWM3 package, save to sd card, use recovery to install (choose zip from sdcard etc)
You must clear your dalvik cache after install.
Reboot, clear the application data for twlauncher to ensure it displays properly.
This is currenty setup for 240 dpi, I'm working on a version for 182dpi as I type.
*UPDATE*
Alright, I've attached the 182 version. Unfortunatly I just cannot get it to accept a grid any larger than 8x8.. though I suppose that's still 64 spaces right?
Known Issues
Screen rotation is not currently working
Nice one mate!
Nice work! The screen rotation does not work for me.
Nice! Can't wait for 182 version

[Q] How to Get the Stock Moto Weather & News, My Gallery, My Music, Weather Widget
So I am about to upgrade to the new SuperCharged V6 thanks to our amazing devs but I kind of want to keep the stock Motorola My Music app (since it has nice internet radio and FM radio), the stock My Gallery (since it has built in editing), and the Weather widget (the one that uses Accuweather but has a cool bluish theme and is really nice). I am a noob, so can anyone tell me a way I could extract those or find them somewhere so I can install them onto the new ROM?
Edit: Sorry guys now that I have finally gotten SCv6 setup enough to be a daily driver, I have found that the My Gallery and My Music have been retained! I don't know what got into me when I created the thread (probably was thinking about Bullet?).
The Weather and Weather & News widgets have not been retained, however, so that is what I'm wondering about now.
I dunno about the weather widget since I don't think that I've ever used it, but My Music and My Gallery are preserved, so I don't see why a widget wouldn't be.
Can you not pull just those apps from a stock-based rom that has them included, and place them into the app folder within SCv6?

I got stock Blur launcher working through Home Switcher, but that would probably not help if the original widgets were removed from the ROM. Thanks though!
