[LF]News&Weather (GenieWidget.apk) for S4 - Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps

Hello,
I'm looking for Geniewidget.apk (Google News and Weather apps) to install it on my Samsung Stock ROM (rooted). I miss the weather report from CM and can't find anything equivalent (ratio heat/rain probability).
I tried to install following S3 procedure but I guess the APK is not compatible with 4.2.2
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

How could you not love the Samsung weather app or Google now. Those are superior

Thanks for quick help.
I have downloaded the file, I then copy past it into system/apps/... And try to install it from there. Without success. Could you let me know how did you proceed ?''

Last question
It is a 4x1 widget, I use only the weather display. It would be nice to have it 3x1 (as it seems to waste the rest of the space). Any tips on how to proceed ?

some launchers have the option to modify the column/row number on the homescreen or let you resize widgets (eg. next launcher, ..)
i'm afraid there is no quick option to change a widgets size if the launcher does not support it

[APP]Iida Infobar A01 Launcher + Widgets ALPHA(Looking for devs)

Hi there,
I would like to present to You Iida Launcher which is a launcher from japanese phone Infobar A01. This is the video that shows how it looks:
Instalation and download link:
Here is the CWM package that I made with Launcher and its widgets just instal it via CWM (I tested it on i9000 and i9100 but it should work on ANY phone):
http://www.multiupload.com/TH7VSEACRU
In order to uninstall it just remove all "Iida....apk" from /system/app
There are now two themes for this launcher avaiable in here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16748025&postcount=74
What is working:
-Launcher it self
-Weather Widget but it shows only weather for Japan
-Clock Widget
-RSS Widget
-Memo Widget
-Photo Frame Widget
-Calendar Widget
What is not working:
-E-Mail Widget
-Phone Widget
-All widgets not related to launcher
-Launcher sounds can be silenced only with other media sounds
-Other stuff I did not find
Developement:
Currently I can not work on this to make it more usable (i don't have time and I don't really now how) so
anyone who can and knows how to is welcome to work on this.
Things that needs to be done are:
-Fixing not working Iidia Widgets
-Adding the ability to add other widgets
-Making it more customizable
-Adding more languages support (Only English and Japanese now)
-Other ideas?
Here are some links that are essential for futher work:
System dump link:

-thanks to zarboz for full phone dump
-thanks to zenitraM for deodexing system apps
-thanks to NegroKu for themes
Wow nice project
Thank u man
I hope it gets more devs attention. This launcher has a huge potential and is kind of unique.
Looks nice, reminds me of WP7, just a more lively version. WP7 is a little too plain, even though I'm using Launcher7 on my X2
Didn´t work with MIUI on SGSII.... Flashed, nothing happened.
Sometimes You have to choose Iidia Launcher for a couple of times to make it start. It is one of the things that makes it an alpha release.
Is the only way to use it by flashing or can it installed like a normal apk?
Which recovery do you use??(version number)

I doubt that but You can try. In order to make launcher working You would have to
install IidiaHome.apk and IidiaPrestetTheme.apk (It is launcher and theme without theme laucher won't work). If it does not work You can always push it manualy via adb or Root Explorer.

I am using CWM 4.0.1.4
Launcher lookds great. Please continue to work on that
I Flashed it but its not there even checking the system/apps directory shows nothing so I tried to unzip and just install the apks but they all fail to install. I'm running a thunderbolt with A05PTH3ORY(modded cyanogen). This home screen replacement looks great and I really want to try it any ideas?
Try mounting /system in recovery before flashing

Thanks that worked perfectly.
I can help to translate this app in French if you want.
This is the launcher of my dreams. I wish someone talented works on this and makes it usable. I'm tired of iPhone clone launchers. We need original ideas like this. I wish I knew how to code Android apps so I could work on it.
is it possible to get a instable .apk which you can put with a file explorer to system/app ?
i 've tried to install the home .apk but it says me, that there is a parsing error :/
Mmmm... After reboot, the launcher doesn't work :/

[Q] Looking for JB clock app to run on ICS

Hey guys,
I was hoping to be able to install the JB clock app/widget on an ICS ROM, but I haven’t been able to locate the right thing to download/install. Is what I want even possible, and if so, can anyone provide a link?
TIA
Not possible. Just find a theme or app in the Play Store that does what you want instead.

Clock JB should be an alternative clock widget that only requires Android 2.2 and up.

Ported_Tab_4_8inch-4.4.4.TouchWiz_Launcher_&_SecTabletMyFiles2

Ported - Tab 4 8.0 inch - 4.4.4 Touchwiz Launcher for Note 8
What's this?
Did you hear the news? Samsung just updated T-Mobile's Tab 4 (8 inch - 4.4.4 KTU84P T337TUVU1BNI8) to 4.4.4!. I got the firmware downloaded from sammobile, I extracted, odexed and then ported this baby over to our beloved Note 8 tablet. This is brand new ported TouchWiz Launcher from 4.4.4 KTU84P T337TUVU1BNI8. I also made animation much smoother, and a few other improvement. Plus, I am including SecTabletMyFiles2.apk from 4.4.4 as well.
Download
Version 1.0

Download Link : Ported_Tab_4_8inch-4.4.4 SecTabletMyFiles2_by_Jazzespresso.zip
Version3.0
In this version of launcher; same features with version 2.0, plus it now has Hide Apps/Shows Apps feature enabled.
Download Link : Moded_Tab4_4.4.4_SecLauncher3.v3.zip_by_Jazzespresso.zip
Install Instruction
This is NOT flashable, do not try to attempt to flash it thru recovery!. This is only deodexed Samsung stock ROMs version 4.4.X such as Civato's FlexBurst or FlexNote ROMs.
Steps:
Make sure you have other 3rd party launcher already installed (such as Nova, Apex launcher..etc) - free version available
Download zip package to your tablet and unzip it, and using root explorer, go to System--> priv-app folder and backup your current SecLauncher3.apk and SecTabletMyFiles2 (samsung's stock myfiles that come with it), and delete them. Repeat, you need to delete old ones.
Copy SecLauncher3.apk and SecTabletMyFiles2.apk comes with my package, and push it system\priv-app folder and give it 644 (-rw-r--r--) permission.
Go to Stettings, and application manager --> all, find touchwiz app, and clear data and cache and reboot your tablet.
Enjoy your brand new 4.4.4 samsung touchwiz launcher and new SecTabletMyFiles2.
Known issue/bug:
Setting up lockscreen wallpaper thru touchwiz (long press on blank screen and touchwiz setting set wallpaper for set lockscreen wallapaper) FCs.
Instead please use Settings --> Display--> Wallpaper --> Lockscreen. I am NOT considering this as major issue, just small bug that I can live with it. So please do not complain about it.
p.s: if some reason you don't like and like to switch to stock one, just delete this two and put back stock ones and reboot.
Usage:
If you want to use this PORT in your own ROM, you only have to give proper credits (and a thank you would be so nice too), just as a way of courtesy, and you do not need ask for permission, but it would be nice if you let me know if you are using it your own ROM and adding proper credits in your OP posting.
This is Brilliant. Downloading now ............
Thank you so Much :good: :victory:
Works Great.
Thank you very much.
But sorry if my question is stupid, is it possible to add "Phone" or other app replace "My files" in the left bottom of home screen?

For setting, you can try this if you are adventures enough - I would strongly recommend you to do full nandroid backup before you try this!
Download SecSettingsProvider.apk to your tablet's SD card from link below;
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001606446
In your tablet, go to root's system\priv-app, and make a back up of your current SecSettingsProvider.apk, and then rename current one like SecSettingsProvider.apk.backup.
Now, copy the one you download and push it to system\priv-app, and give permission to 644 and reboot your tablet.
and go settings and see...
Be warned that this has some bugs, one issue is multiwindow bar sometimes does not works... I still could not able to figure out why so.

for status bar, use S5 SystemUI theme exposed (search in XDA) or download it here :

Getting settings is though, but maybe getting System UI (status bars..etc..) would be possible

Couple of things you can do here:
First option; try to go Settings --> Application manager --> All --> and locate the accuweather/weather app, click on it, and press clear data and clear cache. After that remove weather widget from home screen and reboot your tablet. And place the weather widget on your home screen and see it it is properly sized. If not, move on to second option
Second option; because we are using Tab 4's launcher, current accuweather/weather widget won't properly resized because that one is for stock TW launcher, therefore you need to find or hunt accuweather app from other Samsung devices, search in XDA and you will see there are many diffrent version for diffrent size, hopefully you will find one that fits nicely. If you think this is too much work, move on to third option
Third option; There's new Accuweather and Briefing Widget I ported from Tab 4 too, which I am using it and it has some additional features as well, so you can go here New Accuweather and Briefing Widget, and follow the install instruction.

Request: weather app

Hi everyone,
I uninstalled the Huawei weather app because I thought I didn't need it, but I thought I'd give it another try. Could anyone upload the apk for me? Thanks in advance!
The Weather channel app...
I only want the best, so give me what I want! BMW!!!
I need the original apk from the system folder if possible, so I can use the lockscreen weather widget. Unless the Weather Channel app does the same trick.

Thanks for your help! I was unable to install it though, and simply copying it into the system/app folder wouldn't make it work. Fortunately, I remembered that I did a full backup with Titanium Backup when the system was freshly installed - silly me

No problem. Too bad the app from those links doesn't work, I didn't test it. Anyway, I can't uninstall weather app, working only on rooted devices I think.

It's part of the default lockscreen, you can swipe it up from the bottom of the screen, together with 4 app shortcuts. But it won't show when the app isn't installed.

It's simple: Download apk.Install it.
Return to the stock theme. Re-Apply it In the center of the Samsung. Reboot device.
Go to the center of the Samsung theme (or just hold the finger on the desktop and click on the “wallpaper”) on the “theme” tab and find a new one (with “trial” status). Apply it.
