Hey guys, I seem to be having a problem with the HTC widgets. I am on Leedroids rom, I flashed the tweak script, installed Rosie scroller and deleted these apps by using the same script: HTC stocks, HTC watch(ppv service), and all aosp apps and My HTC. Recently, I have tried to add HTC widgets to my screen and cannot find them in the widgets list with filter set to all. Was wondering what I should do to fix this, could it be the apps the I uninstalled in the tweaks script? I still have my HTC clock on the homescreen that I added a long time ago. Thanks.
Edit: tomorrow I'm going to try to fix it by reflashing boot.IMG and rehashing the Rom. Surry It's late and I wasn't thinking
EDIT: Solved by flashing boot.img and reflashing the ROM.

I think the OP is referring to the downloadable HTC widgets such as battery widget, etc. These will not install from the Market nor do they show up when clicking to download from the widget list to add to home. I too, would like to know a work around to install (not a different widget on the Market) because I really miss the HTC battery widget.

Oh, shoot my bad.
For some reason, the Download new HTC widgets button worked on my v2.0 rom. It showed the downloadable ones and worked on the HS

yeah that's what I was referring to. I want the HTC battery widget back.

I think the widget isn't installing because it isn't an official ROM, but that is just a guess.
Could be part of the problem. However, it did install on the Eris based 2.1 roms which had very different frameworks than the Sprint based 2.1 roms. I believe that is the real problem. The Eris roms were more like the Sprint 1.5 roms framework wise.
Just wondering if anyone's found a fix for this? I miss my battery widget lol
still waiting for this myself. hopefully it will work with the release keys
i used running the damagecontrol rom and its a great rom but i'd like to have some of the htc widgets and apps back like calendar, music, etc.
i checked out this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=588351
and the apps don't seem to work i'm assuming because i'm running 2.1 and those are 1.5 apps.
anyway where can i find htc widgets and apps for my phone?

On another note, I flashed DC2.06 yesterday, and the default HTC Widgets and Apps were there intact, so I'm not sure where yours went..
im thinking you may have flashed the "lite" version of DC instead of the full one in the actual DC thread

Anyone else keep getting sense restarting after coming out of an app?
Nope... Not got any other launchers installed have you?
I'm sure this question gets asked daily. It's because the sensation doesn't have that much memory, and sense 3.0 is hogging too much of it. A change of launcher bypasses the issue.

strange, my device always has 150+mb free when idle, and 200mb+ when i clean my prog-list,
do you actualy close any programs, or only just use the home-icon.
only a different launcher would not change much, sense will still be present.
No, it's the sense launcher itself that causes the issues, and it's that which keeps restarting, hence seeing the HTC screen while it starts up again. Using a different launcher bypasses the issue entirely, though you do lose the ability to use sense widgets. You still use the sense keyboard and can use HTC's apps though.
I never use the home icon as I don't like leaving apps running, I always quit out of them properly if I can help it. Sense takes up too much of the phone's memory, so when you try to change or exit tasks it runs out of memory and can't do it, hence sense stops and restarts from scratch. Seems to happen more the more apps you have on the phone.
Are you rooted?

I am now, but it was doing it beforehand too. Hence why I use a different launcher.
I have noticed that on my Sensation the Sense interface restarts every time I close the market using the "Back" key after installing or upgrading one or more apps.
It does not happen if I go back home using the "Home" button...Can anyone else confirm this trend?

I used to have the same problem on stock ROM not-rooted so I rooted my phone and installed a custom ROM. This solved my problem and i have no more random reboots.

I had this same issue and just removed spare parts and bingo it's not crashing any more. Spare parts was kinda pointless on gingerbread as the battery history was the main thing I used it for but that doesn't work on gb.
Thanks d3vilskid
Edit: spoke too soon.... Stopped happening with browser and home key. But still happening with market place and back button.
If u have root u can try the market app ram manager it balances ram for everyday. Use and the paid version can free ram for multitasking And gaming

You can add HOME_APP_ADJ=1 to the build.prop file, and that will prevent Rosie (the launcher) from being killed/restarted by the memory manager.

It's part of the LeeDroid Tweaks add on: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501952
Anyway, I think the Recent apps may not be present since the Extended Quick Settings Mod that you flashed might have disabled it.
So flash the LeeDroid Tweaks add on and the Recent apps should be back and you'll have Extended Quick Settings.
Thanks A LOT!
I cutted off Tweaks.apk from LeeDroids package and installed it as separate application. It works perfectly!

This is my second Android app. I develop this little app because I prefer 3rd party launcher (e.g. Apex) than existing Sense 4 Rosie. Existing hacked Sense 4 Rosie (full version) currently doesn't support non Sense widget correctly and is less feature-rich than many other launchers.
Even if you install a 3rd party launcher, Rosie still consume your precious memory as a system service. But if you freeze Rosie and thus release it from memory, you'll lose your lockscreen app shortcuts. After painstakingly reviewing the codes in HTC shortcut components, I found that Rosie actually act as a content provider to supply information of its launcher bar shortcuts to lockscreen. So without Rosie, lockscreen has no information to construct its shortcuts. Therefore I wrote this little app to replace the role of Rosie as the content provider. What's more, it allows you to select your own apps with a simple config screen and store the data separately. And it doesn't stay in the memory permanently.
Installation instructions:
Uninstall Rosie (Freezing doesn't work because Android doesn't allow two content providers of same type) ** You're reminded to make a backup first **
Install HTC Lockscreen Shortcut Provider
Run Lockscreen Shortcuts
Select your app for the 4 shortcuts
Hit back to save settings and notify HTC lockscreen
MD5: 30056AA5EF4716ADCD043B2751A3943B
** Currently this app has been tested to work with Sense 3.6, 4, 4A and 4.5 **
Change log
1.42
- Send broadcast notification to lockscreen on phone boot (should fix shortcut not showing issue after a reboot for TrickDroid)
1.41
- New option to hide app title
1.4
- Add support for Sense 4.5 (thanks Patrics83 for testing new version and support!). You MUST uninstall any previous version first.
1.3
- Add support for Sense 4A
1.2.1
- Fixed FC when loading installed apps
1.2
- Add support for Sense 3.6
1.1
- Added broadcast message to HTC lockscreen so no reboot is needed!
Great idea. Next time I'm on a sense rom I'll give it a shot

1.1 just uploaded. No need to reboot now!
Is that also working if i just want different icons on my lockscreen than on my Sense Launcher bar?
Just wanted to ask that.
Nice app bro!

It doesn't work that way currently because this app replaces Rosie and cannot coexist with it.
But what you want to do can be done. You need to mod the idlescreen_Base.apk to use a different message to request for the shortcuts and change my app to listen to that message. This way, Rosie can coexist with this app and lockscreen will communicate with this app for the shortcuts.

You are my hero!
I needed this so badly wow you did exactly what I dreamed that some1 should create
Update:
Its not working.. :\
I thought it did at first but I guess it was still because of the last run of the HTC Rosie Sense.
After a restart the icons are gone and no matter if I go back to the app and rechange the list, the lockscreen is still empty.. :\
Can I help in any way to make it work? Perhaps sending some log files?

Can you give me more information?
What ROM are you using?
Did you see a toast (popup message) "Notified HTC lockscreen" after saving the shortcuts settings?
If possible a logcat would help
I'm quite confident that it works for DHD since it's so similar to IncS if you're using a supported ROM.
I will give this a try. I hope it works because I am using Blackout ROM (Sense 3.6). It is just what I was looking for! Rosie looks nice but takes too much memory and is very feature limited so I want a third party launcher but still want to try and use a Sense based rom.
Thanks man and hope it works .
Thank you
Gooooooood work ! :good:
That's exactly what i was looking for
Thank you very much.

Please report back your result since I'm not sure if it works in Sense 3.6. If it doesn't I still can find a way to add support to it.

Doesn't work dude. I deleted rosie, installed your app, put the apps i wanted as shortcuts and everything looked fine until trying to open the apps from the lockscreen. When i try to do that nothing happens and the phone unlocks at home screen. Will try to provide logcat tomorrow. Can't do it now cause I'm on the road.

I know about the issue in Sense 3.6 and I'll try to find a solution. As for aLogcat, after it's running, you need to go to the lockscreen and unlock it. Go back to aLogcat and save the log file and send it to me. If the lockscreen generate any error, I'll be able to see it.

I added a log cat to this folder (theres also another one in sabsa 3.0)
