Anyone know where to get HTC widgets, & apps...couldn't find on the market - EVO 4G Themes and Apps

I have some great widgets on my kings shooter rom, but I want to put them on another phone. I can probably try pulling them off my rom, but I tried on the calendar app and I couldn't get that to work. If someone knows where I can download them and then install on another phone that would be awesome. I want the HTC Stocks widget, HTC Weather widget, HTC Task Manager. Thanks in advance

You can't do that...they're made for the htc launcher, so its impossible, I've never seen it happen...the closest thing I've seen is a mock up clock from fancy Widgets or beautiful Widgets...

Yeah, if they're from a different sense version, they won't work. (i.e., if you're trying to put sense 3.0 Widgets on a sense 1.0 rom). If you're trying to add them to another sense 3.0 rom that that doesn't already have them, then download Merge rom and it'll move them to your SD and from there move them (manually) to /system/app and set permissions to rw-r-r and reboot. Should work.

flyscreen has a calendar widget? i think
what about using Widget Locker?
not smooth as i want. sometimes u can still see original lock screen :<
widgetlocker with smoothcalender widget (Y)
I skipped the installation of widgetlocker because it asked for permission to use the phone... it seems weird... What phone calls should make such an application?
Any other app does the same?
tnx

All apps that support older Android devices older than 1.6 automatically have this permission, and even those not meant for devices that old often still have it, usually because developers didn't know or were lazy - here's more information

Because you can add shortcuts to the screen to make calls I believe. The app itself obviously isn't making any calls.
WidgetLocker + Android Agenda Widget is my favorite.

yeah this is what i'd do also.
Another vote for Widget Locker. I use that with Pure Calendar widget to get my appointments on the lock screen.
can i use WL for my mytouch3g andriod 1.6?i dont want to root my phone,.
You don't need to be rooted to run WidgetLocker. I'm using it on an unrooted Evo with the pure calendar agenda widget.
A new widget came out called calendr that is pretty sweet. On the clean though if you like that type of thing.

It is a sense thing, but on any 2.2 Sense rom you can remove the HTCLockscreen and the original one will appear in its place. It works, but you can't use it for controlling Sense applications (music, calendar, sense alarm clock).

You have a couple options. If you have EStrongs file explorer and root and read/write turned on go to /system/app/ and delete htclockscreen.apk. or you can flash the attached file. this removes the HTC Sense lockscreen and just leaves the vanilla. If you use sense apps like alarm they wont work properly so you should download an alternative from the market like open alarm or AlarmKlock

Actually the alarm will work as long as you use the asop clock to set alarms...
Just wondering if there still isn't anyway to use the vanilla lock screen to answer calls yet?
oh i know i can just remove the apk, but oh god i hate the Vanilla lock screen... blah yuck.
ok first thing you'll say is the iphone style is nearly the same.
nope, it isnt is my answer.
You can also use widget locker on the market. it has an option for iPhone style screen unlocker.

[REQUEST] HTC Messenging

Im trying to use vaelpaks new rom but I all I really need is the htc messenger because I hate the stock messages. Is there any way someone can give me a zip file for this please?
Im willing to donate.

Exactly what i am wanting too. Would also like the htc messaging widgets if possible

If it's an AOSP ROM you won't be able to use Sense applications
Vael always puts side by side apps in his roms. Look in the vaelpak extras folder using root explorer or similar program. The HTC mms.apk(its the entire app even tho its called mms) should be in there

[Q] Weather Data never available..

is it just me or has this happened to anyone else.. but i just purchased an HTC Inspire today and the location updates without a problem.. but every place that im at or been through the weather data is always not available.
Had the same issue earlier on my inspire and my daughter's desire z. Working fine for me now so I assumed it was just a temporary problem.
I only really care about the weather where my home is, so so I could leave wireless networks off but still have my home weather, and HTC includes like 2 us cities, I edited the weather's settings.db to include my city in its choices for default cities. Worked good.
If anyone's interested ill have to check exactly what sqlite values I edite, can't remember off the top of my head.
I'm interested. You really know you're stuff dude.

Why thank you. I'll find the values I edited and post a how to when I get off work
Sync weather in the Account&sync section. That fixed my weather problem

Thanks di11igaf, can't wait to mess around with it, when I get off work too
Sorry guys, not using sense right now and didn't have time last night to flash my sense Rom back. I'll do It tonight and write how to add a location. If someone wants to look into it before me though its in /data/data/ one of the HTCweather database files(there's a few), and inside that its one of the .db files. You'll need an sqlite editor to change the values either on the phone(you can buy one from within root explorer), or edit it on your pc and put it back. You'll see what has to be changed cause it will have all the locations listed inside the db file. I'll know exactly what to edit later with a step by step.
Actually I think you've given us enough to empower ourselves I'm going to tackle this tonight. Thanks again.

On my stock (i.e. not rooted) AT&T Inspire, the weather widget sucked. You can not add weather locations that you may be interested in. (Score one for iPhone).
My great solution: Get Weather Bug app (or something similar). You can add any location you wish and get more info.
Now you need a way to link the stock HTC clock widget to the Weather Bug app. Well you can NOT do it.
SO, get Fancy Widgets! They have 100 of cool widgets, including the nice looking HTC clock/weather widget (small and large), and it includes custom options to set which app to start / link when tapped.
So when you tap the weather widget part, Weather Bug starts. Tap clock, goes to the stock clock / alarm app.
Problem solved, home screen works better than iPhone!

[Q] Beautiful widgets?

Hi guys im wondering if anyone else is having problem with beautifulwidgets app from the market. I cannot get noskins from the app at all for the clock skin. The weathet widget n fancy stuff does work. But when I try to download a skin for it nothing appears. All it says is loading n loading for the skins. I tried on normal network and in my wifi as well. I also was wondering if any one got any skins that can pos up, I would appreciate it to see if I least that works. Thank u.
You have to buy it from the Market in order to download skins.

No issues over here. Lets me download any weather/clock skin available. Maybe try re-downloading the app?
Love it

im with this guy, try uninstalling BW and the animation package. and when you re-download try doing it through a wifi connection that should ensure that its downloaded correctly.
No, no problems except it seems to use quite a bit more battery than it should. I have gone over to Fancy Widget.
