I am wanting to find a way to install the default sensation clock and calander on the new cm7 build, is there any possible way and could someone help me get this done... ?
Thanks.
Nope. And i mean it. A lot of very good Devs/Chefs tried it and failed.
True!! is it that difficult ??

Unfortunately yes. but there are of course alternatives like " beautiful widgets" in the market for the clock. And pure calender for the calendar. Both are available in the market but both are paid. Worth it tho if you ask me. That way, you can have your cake and eat it too.
The problem with this is that you need the Sense API to use the HTC widgets. It's sorta like trying to run a Windows program on Mac or Linux.
Beautiful Widgets free has a nice clock though

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.

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.
My setup....

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?

I dont know about a message widget but I'm fond of the pop up for hand cent.
Also I want a good calendar too and maybe a better alarm clock.

Oh, the News and Weather thing... Not quite what I had in mind, thanks
might be thinking of beautiful widgets... clock/weather widget w 1/2 screen and 1/4 screen widgets
THANKS, shadowmike! I looked for hours for the "News and Weather" for my MyTouch and never could find it for my stock ROM.
This is exactly the app I was looking for ... gosh it tells you everything you need to know in the morning!
Is this the latest version of this? Was looking for version 1.2.02 RC2. Not sure if its any better or has any bug version fixes from version 1.1.7 RC6(PROD).
Would appreciate any help.
Thanks.
I'm also looking for the latest version. I have FroYo on my Galaxy S, and this one just wont run
**EDIT** Okay, I've found it and it works for me
http://www.hemorrdroids.net/files/com.google.android.apps.genie.geniewidget.apk
didn't this come shipped with sense on the desire?
weird, cause I have it installed already
why you all looking for genie widget ? why don't you check better widget? its cool and easily customizable...........

launcher pro is the best launcher ever, it can be exactly like vanillia android but is 1000x more customizable and powerful and free
.... did I mention it is free?
I guess I did
Though it's free there's a paid version (launcher pro plus) with more features. The most useful feature in the paid version must be resizing widgets ;-)
Regards Dousan...
I am also looking for this, I have tried Launcher Pro/ADW and lots of Gingerbread themes etc but I am always left with SE icons and not stock.
Anyone know the best way to get stock icons? (rooted and bootloader unlocked)

ohhhh.... yea nothing is going to help you with that except custom roms or some serious surgury of the apk's in /system and you don't want to mess with that I promise you.
there are some apps to change the icon link on your home screen, but in the app drawer it will still show the old icon. Not sure anyone is going to help you with that less a custom rom be involved

She wants her task widget back. I have found on here people with htc desires with it and an apk. would this work on a sensation here is the link to what i am talking about.

You have a widget that looks just like this on HTC Hub
It's called Notes.
He did say his mother didnt like notes though

download and give it a blast, if it doesnt work then uninstall, but i feel the resolution will be an issue as the sensation has a higher res the desire.

For some reason, I've read it backwards
BTW, the task widget in that link works, but it's buggy.
It's not built for Sensation's screen...

Once you download it you'll need to put in on your memory card. After that you'll need a file manager (install ES file explorer or Astro file manager from the market). Than use the file manager to navigate to the apk on the memory card and start it
But you won't like the widget... The buttons are messed up.
Better get something different from the market
Hey thanks to all who answered me, sadly i do have to say it did not work the buttons were off center and it was a bit small but when you clicked the add button and then done it would not add a task but thank you for all your help it will help from here on. I am going to try and find another version. MUCH APPRECIATED

Sorry for bumping an old thread, but want to throw out an offer here rather than starting a new thread. I'd be willing to pay someone if they could get the task widget fixed to run on the Sensation. As stated in the thread, it works but its buggy. If interested, shoot me a PM.
Oh man, thats one of my favorite widgets from HTC. Hopes someone can modify it...
mine too! now i'm cnm 7.1.0.1 and the only thing that i realy miss is the htc note widget. how can i get it back?
Back to Sense ROM it's the only way to have sense widgets working.
I love that little apk too but sadly not able to use it on my sensation.
However, you can try TO DO LIST WIDGET (by Chrisbailey).
I use to replace Work 2.0. You need to change the default setting a little to make it look like Work. (The settings is very visualized and easy to setup.)
Although its not 100% the same (looks and functions similar enough though).
Hello,
I installed MIUI v4 on my Desire S recently. I downloaded the port from miuiandroid.com. I am loving this ROM, but the weather widget doesn't seem to be working, and there appears to be no weather app installed. know about weather.miui.es, but what you get there is an older version of the widget which can't use your current location. I know this is a bit of a silly question which probably has a simple solution, but does anyone know what to do to get that widget working?
Thanks in advance.
There is no international version yet, sorry
That's a but of a pain... But there is still probably hope. Since I started this thread, I heard Xiaomi and miuiandroid.com are working on an international version of their weather widget, so let's hope it gets put together soon... By the way, do you know of any good looking, free weather widgets?
Nope, sorry mate
I'm not a weather kinda guy.
I use the window - it's high res!
I use the window too, but unfortunately, it doesnt show the weather for places I intend travelling too.

Have you guys tried MIUI Digital Weather Clock? - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=factory.widgets.MIUIDigitalClock
Or Fancy Widgets - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anddoes.fancywidgets
PS. No offence 'bout the windows comment, I hope. I was just kidding
I used AccuWeather widget to replace the MIUI one.
