[REQUEST] [WIDGET] Transparent News and Weather Widget?

I searched through this forum and didn't find anything so here ya go!
Is there a morph or something similar that will change the stock black background of the default News and Weather widget and make that black background transparent? I only ever use the weather part if that makes a difference.
Thanks!
Buck

Okay, pardon the complete noobness on my part, but how do I install/apply this? The only modifying I've ever done is straight through Metamorph...

its a metamorph theme...just extract the folder inside the zip to the androidthemes folder then apply it..

Thanks for the theme, but I was unable to install it. It said metamorph could not , because a file was missing.

Thanks for hooking this up though!

I'm feeling kinda dumb here. This is my first time using metamorph.
I removed the nested folder and rezipped, but still get that same error.
The folder structure is as so:
TransparentGenie.zip
|
geniewidget (folder)
.nomedia (file)
TrebsparentGenie.thm
Inside geniewidget folder there is:
res/drawable-hdpi/(bunch of pngs)
I press the unzip/extract new theme and select the zip and it still gives me the same error. Am I missing something?

this is easier, modded apk (froyo)

when you move it to system/app/ overwrite the old file (the filename in the above post needs renaming)

added a new Genie Widget here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10933922&postcount=484

AOSP Lockscreen Defy

How can i get the AOSP Lockscreen to my Defy?
I have root and the 155's SBF

you have to edit the framework-res.apk in system folder.

A little bit more info would be perfect thx

you take the root explorer or super manager and copy the framework-res.apk on your sd card and then to your pc.
then you rename it to framwork-res.rar and extract it with winrar.
Then you open the extracted folder an search for the slider pictures.
you can edit it they are only pictures.
if you have edited it you make a rar of the folder.
renamed in framework-res.apk and copy in you system folder on you defy.
thats it.
sorry for my poor english

By the way, is it possible to control the Music with the Lockscreen? Like by a sense rom?

here is the framework-res.apk from Pays Rom 3.3
It has AOSP Sliders included.

If you are using 3.4.2-155-2 try this.

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

PowerAMP has the music lockscreen. But this should be in themes section I think.

Metamorph AOSP-Lockscreen
I made a Metamorph-Theme for myself which patches any framework-res.apk with the AOSP-Lockscreen.
Maybe this will help you.

it is for all Frameworks ?
Or all of the Froyos ?

I only tested it with some Froyos but theoretically it should work on Eclair, too.
Make a nandroid-backup and give it a try...

I made a update.zip for my own use.
Use at work own risk. It worked for me (JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_155-002_DEBLUR).
Go into ClockWorkMod Recovery and use the option "Install zip from sdcard".

Thanks dedraks it works on my 3.4.2-177

Would it also work in the latest CEE Froyo?

yes works fine, and works too on gingerbread roms!

Does it just changes the Slider or also the notificationbar and the symbols there?

So this also works in stock roms and I don't need a custom, deodexed rom in order to have this lockscreen? I just follow the guidelines in the first page and I am good to go?

you change only the zmotoxxx.png image in res/drawable hdpi, used 7zip! this is all!
its only lockscreen image, if you want the status bar aosp, you have to replace the framework.res

I have stock 3.4.2 179. How can I get the lockbar from page 1 of this thread ?
Can I still follow the instructions form page one with the files from page one ? Or are those files incompatible with newer versions of froyo ?

Help with SMS application

I made a change in application SMS GO to stay with the appearance of the original application of the xperia. I edited the file using EDIT APK, but when trying to install the phone in an error, even using recovery.
NOTE: already edited several apk, but this is not the only one that installs.
If any developer can guide me would be grateful.
Attached is the edited and original apk.
Download
http://www.mediafire.com/?9ccgyzhkhgcwct9

I'm sure that there a right way to modify 3rd part app,but since the moment that I don't know too much, I can only suggest you to convert go sms in a system app (you can do that with titanium backup pro or maybe with some other app...try to google it) and then if you only need to change .png images you can just replace them into the apk file without extracting it and then push the app into system and reboot!! If you need to modify .xml files,you can use apk manager to decompile,compile and sign the apk!! if you try to modify a 3rd part app it will not work (I don't know the technical reason),so converting it in a system app is a solution to this problem!! But maybe you can wait to hear other opinion from anyone else with better knowledge than me!! hope it helps you!!

Which method do you used to mod your apk ?

I used the program "edit apk" it decompresses and subscribes automatically.
The only job I had was to change the images *. png and rename
It worked for all other applications except the sms go

You change .9.png or just .png? For editing the first ones you should use a patch, search in the general Android Themes thread.
For editing and compiling system apps you should use apkmanager instead of editapk (wich I don't know)...
If ya need further advice mail or PM me.
And sorry for my bad english!

Something strange happened!
Developers, tried all the above methods to install the modified application, but all without success.
I used modified ROM "vmmcs" 2.3.7
Unintentionally I had to reinstall the original rom Xperia 2.3.3.
Before installing custom ROM again. I tried to use the apk HE RAN NORMALLY.
CONCLUSION: SOME APPS MUST HAVE A MEANS TO RECOGNIZE THAT THE ANDROID HAVE ROOT, SO IT DOES NOT ALLOW THE INSTALLATION

Hello, if u have the SMS apk, why dun u try to unzip/unpack the apk contents, replace the PNG icons in Res/drawable-hdpi inside sMS apps, and rezip/repackaged using Formatter? I try to edit my Custom xperia Home.apk icons and it worked!! Here the guide thread for formatter
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1108798
Sometimes, u might need to recheck path of files directories which as same as previous file Hope this helps.

Restore your backup?

I haven't did the backup
And how to? If I cannot boot the phone..
Where to get original Xperia Z1 "UnsupportedHeadsetNotifier.apk" and how to put it back to system/app???

Maybe flash the rom again, but only system part.
You obviously have root access so install a recovery, or flash a kernel with it built in.
