[Widget] Radio FM - HTC Sensation

Hi there, I'm trying to get the RadioFM widget on a ROM that apparently has not this option.
I have the RadioFM App, but I don't have the Widget, so I thought I could pull it out from another ROM and install it separately, or push it to the right folder.
Is that widget included in the original HtcFMRadio.apk or should I look somewhere else?
Anybody has any suggestion?
I looked over the Market for a replacement app...but I only found app to listen to radio channels on streaming...whereas I'd like the FMRadio Tuner widget..!

Unless you're using a sense ROM, htc widgets will not work. They're embedded into framework-res and other system files. If you ARE using a sense ROM, you should have the widget anyway.

I'm using a Hybrid AOSP+SENSE...I do have the original HtcFMradio apk but not the widget....and from your answer I guess I never will till I keep this Rom...which btw I absolutely love a part from this detaik
I also tried with SpiritFM from the market which is a great tuner but comes with no widget :-/
Any ideas?!

Well the lack of any HTC widgets should have been a clue!
But I don't know of any other radio widgets. Would you consider moving to a full sense ROM? There are some good stable sense 4 ROMs out there

Actually, from your sig I can see we were on the same amazing Pkmn 5.1 this is my first non-full-sense rom and I changed it just a couple of days ago!
I didn't change my sig cause I'm plannig to get back to Pkmn as soon as the update will come...but I don't exclude I might stick to the Rom I'm trying these days: Smartdroid Berserk mode 1.5 Aosp+Sense 3.6+Sense 4
I do have SOME Sense widgets, like the ususal HTC clock/weather/calendar home widget...and so far it's the snappiest rom I EVER tried...!!
But this thing of the FMRadio widget missing is really annoying as I was used to have a particular config on my home functional to my needs and I'll have to change everything if I don't find one!
I found out a com.htc.FMRadioWidget.apk on System/app of ARHD ...but it didn't help me at all as it wouldn't install...and pushing it to the right folder + fixing permission didn't help either

Stick with PkMn ROM then. Update is imminent, an it has full sense, for your widget needs!

New ROM idea!!!

So I see we have a great line up of roms here for our phones but I have yet to see a combo of CM7 & sense. I mean cm7 had its benefits but so does sense why not make the best of both world? Anyways just trying to introduce a new idea. Also sorry if this is in the Wong section.

No not it the wrong place. Let me try to answer this. It is kinda impossible because they are 2 totally different frameworks. Everything about them us different all the way down to the kernel. You can't necessarily merge the two. You can run senselike widgets on cm7. And you can take the sense out of sense roms but keep the contacts and what people do like about it. But it would be like combining a reptile with a mammal. They are just way too different all the way down and can't be mashed together.

Agreed ^
The framework is just too different. SystemUI files are going to cause a conflict if not the framework.
I think everyone have up on this idea back in the Hero days. There's a project called OpenSense, but I don't know anything about it.

What I meant is modding CM7 to have the ring lockscreen and recently open apps etc. maybe even add the launcher

Lockscreen, launcher, and every other element is heavily dependent on the sense framework.
If you change all the frameworks, the rom is no longer CM7 ... its sense

Easy.
Widget Locker has a "Sense 3" Slider what is a exact clone of the Sense 3 lockscreen, complete with all the animations.
As for Launcher, you can try GO Launcher(use Go Weather for the clock as well)

[Q] Transition Effects

Hey guys, simply put i am a noob This is my first post on these forums and i need a little help with my HTC Sensation 4G (T-Mobile, Rooted) I have searched for a similar thread but i could not find a really helpful answer. I want to change the home screen transition effects on my Sensation and i could not find how to do this. I do not want something like SPB Shell 3D because that changes the whole 'Sense 3.0' experience. I want some different transition effects on my homescreen because the outside cube effect is really boring.I want something without giving up Sense 3.0. I have already tried Anim Mod but that did not really help.
Thanks For helping a noob out guys

I think there is no way you can change the 3D effect and keep the sense launcher.

Is there any way to change the effects on it? Just any general way that is close to keeping the Sense Launcher?
Thanks, elvin18
What is it you like about sense launcher anyway ? What does it have that others don't?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
I just like the overall feel and experience. That might sound dumb but its true. I just really do not like the outside cube effect.

I don't believe there is. The only thing you can change are windows animations and transitions that have nothing to do with sense launcher 3d effect.

Oh give over, don't have a go. Some people like sense and its UI, I like it but I can also appreciate that some people don't like it but I dont go round having a go at those who prefer an alternative launcher. It's his opinion so let it be and get over it
EDIT: to answer the question, no unfortunately the cube animation cannot be changed without going to alternate launchers. If you use an alternative launcher AFAIK you won't be able to use sense widgets
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium
There is a ROM for the sensation (I'm not sure which one) that if you are using 4ext touch recovery with the yes/no function you can choose to have the 3d effect removed, just a flat slide like in earlier sense. Hope this helps!

Hey Guys, i installed MIUI on Android version 2.3.7 and i tried to install Android Revolution HD and when i flashed PG58IMG.ZIP it said the model number is wrong on the bootloader screen and it won't let me get to recovery (4EXT) so I have to take the memory card out to get to recovery. Also i backed up my data, used SuperWipe, and flashed Android Revolution and restarted, my phone gets stuck on the HTC Quietly Brilliant Screen and won't boot. So then i took the memory card out an the battery out, and put it back in to get to recovery mode and i went back to MIUI.
What Should I do?
Thanks Guys
Will anybody help with the problem above? ^
Thanks

[Q] By Rooting, Will i lose Beats Audio ?

I was waiting for a stable release of CM9 which came weeks back and i downloaded it on the same day itself.
I love love love the Sense UI, the lockscreen and way i get music, missed calls and messages over it which has been restraining me from rooting along with the new black notification bar !
Another thing holding me back is that after rooting and flashing CM9 I will most definitely lose the Beats Audio Integration right ?
So...suggestions ?
If you love Sense, dont switch to Cyanogen. Its nothing like Sense.
But you will still benefit from rooting. And if you want to upgrade your user experience try out some of the other Sense based roms that will let you keep Sense and Beats and give you more stability and options

Yeah i flashed Cyanogen on my friends HD2, and used it for a day...nothing like Sense.
I have a non-working WiFi, Bluetooth and Hotspot currently because of the official ICS update http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1785364
I'll wait till a fix and then try sense based ROM's. I prefer a stable ROM since i'm gonna use the phone everyday. And suggestions if you have a good Sense based ROM in mind ?
Thanx :highfive:

Eventually ...who want beats audio on senseless rom try this. You need to be rooted and flash from recovery.

You can always try sense 4 ROMs. In my opinion the UI is even better than sense 3.6 and you lose none of the great intuitive widgets or beats audio that HTC provide. Viper is quite popular when it comes to sense 4. Link to the thread is in my sig.

Yeah, Sense 4 is better, love the dialer especially Anyways, can i have the pure sense 4 look from the Viper ROM ?
I know and have read a lot that it is one of the best and stable ROM for sensations but i dont really like the blue-blue tinge to everything and the altered lock-screen. But, i know this only from the 3-5 screenshots i have seen of it....i am relying on you all to explain it to me (or you could post the thread which has more screenshots than the official thread)
Meanwhile i will YouTube it Thank for the help
Btw, your work on operator logo's is just amazing just checked it out. Could i use it on another ROM though or only Viper ?

Thank you for your compliment! always nice to hear my work is appreciated. But unfortunately, its only for the viperS (sensation) or viperX (one x) ROMs.
As for pure sense 4, viper has it. The screenshot you prob saw was the AOSP lockscreen you can switch to in the tweaks. It's the standard lockring from 3.6 otherwise. As for the blue tinge, I'm not quite sure what you're referring to. There's no blue tinge to anything I've seen while using the ROM. Just flash it to try it out. You won't be disappointed!!!
I think you have seen the blue then from jerrytans all in one theme, just flashing viper s alone gives you a really stock sense 4 feel by default

After Rom install app drawer icon only

Hey guys, when I install some roms ( sense 1.0.2 and coredroid, they seem to only give me the app drawer icon on the bottom right corner, no sense clock or widgets nothing, what am I.doing wrong?
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using XDA Premium HD app
Some roms are different but have you looked into the menu where the widgets should be? Are they not there? I'm not exactly familiar with that particular Rom so I can't really say but if you like widgets and customization you can try another sense Rom like viper . It's sense 4.1 and I can confirm it has many widgets and tons of customization! It's stable and I think you would really like it a lot! You ought to give it a try. I also can confirm that in vipers widgets is several different sense clocks you can choose from.I wish I could be of more help but like I said I'm unfamiliar with that particular Rom so I can't say weather the widgets are included or not. If you don't want to switch roms what you CAN
Do is post this question on that roms developer site where everyone on that site uses the same Rom and they can better answer this question weather or not these things Are included in the Rom and how to access them. I really Hope this helps and I wish you the best !

Ok thanks for your help, Im on viper atm, just wanted to try some out see if I like them, coredroid I used on my dhd that was wikked back then and there's no widgets in settings.at all

If I am not mistaken you can only do that with WidgetLocker or 4.2.
JellyBean lockscreen widgets
You can put any widget (which has the support built in) onto stock Lockscreen in Android v4.2+.
For example Beautiful Widgets HD PRO v3 can do that.
