Stock news & weather widget

I recently switched to Crash V6 XXLRG 4.0.4 ROm which is absolutely superb
The only thing I miss is the stock Samsung 4 x 1 news & weather widget.
Having saved it from a previous LQ2 stock ROM, I have reinstalled and can use the associated app but the widget itself did not install.
Is there any way of being able to install it?
Thanks in advance...

Hi - I think so in so far as I used the install app function on CWM and clicked yes when the blurb came up about it being a system app and did I want to replace it...

Thanks for taking the trouble to upload this Dr. Ketan - I installed it but unfortunately no change; it works as an app but no 4 x 1 widget!

Have you put this in system/app folder and change permission?
Simply installation won't work

Thanks Dr Ketan & afilopou - finally worked out how to do this and have moved it to the system app folder, and changed the permission to the same as all the other apps in the folder, namely -rw-r-r-- but widget still does not appear in the add to home screen widget gallery ...
Am I doing something wrong?
I would welcome any other suggestions!

You did it correctly.
And you need to reboot
another thing are you sure you are not using autostart or same application and you have disable to load this appl on boot? this also cause not to display on widget list.

2 steps forward, 1.5 steps back!
I have updated CRASH to v7, widget now installed, however neither the widget or app will actually work - I get an error message saying "network error - try again later" which means I can't acess any news at all!
NB. Wif/data/downloads are working for everything else
There must be a way of rectifying this?!

Thanks again for help/advice.

[Q] Live Wallpaper Picker had stopped

Hello, I have Sony Xperia C. After rooting it to uninstall app that I didnt need, I unknowingly uninstalled Live Wallpaper Picker. Even after installing the apk file, I get an error that unfortunately Live Wallpaper Picker has stopped. Maybe its to do with the fact that my android version is 4.2.2, and the apk file is 4.0.4. Even after installing the compatible version, the app doesnt install at all. Please help

You may need to restore your stock firmware to fix it now... If you decide to go that route, Here's a guide on that,

STEP 1 ) Root your device. (visit THIS)
STEP 2 ) Download Attached Files
STEP 3 ) Install RootExplorer on your device and copy attached file in system>>app with permissions as "rw--r--r--" and restart your phone.
Also delete the "Live Wallpapers.odex" and "LiveWallpapersPicker.odex" files before doing this.
Delete preexisting files with same name (if there are)

Great! This worked like a charm, thank you so much. I have rooted my phone to uninstall a few preinstalled apps. Each tie I start a new app I get a notification of root access granted. How can I stop that because its annoying and honestly worrying as if I have messed up something. Can you tell me what are the benefits of a rooted phone and its disadvantages? Plus how can I unroot it and will it be as if it was never rooted? Thank you so much

You will get the option on unrooting your device in the same app "Framaroot"
Advantages :
You can control your system as you want
You can do anything with your stock apps, themes, wallpapers, tones etc.,
You can now install a Custom ROM also,
etc. So many Advantages
Disadvantages :
You warranty in gone
Try THIS ROM by me. it's good It will transform your device's interface into Android 4.4.4 KitKat Interface.
Don's say just click the Thanks Button.

Thats great, thanks. Can I also update my android to kitkat?

Upgrading Actual OS to KitKat is not possible because there is no official update available and also we cannot flash custom kernel due to locked bootloader of Xperia C. We can only upgrade our User Interface to KitKat. I am also making an Android 5.0.1 Custom ROM for Xperia C and it will be uploaded on XDA this month only.

Thanks. Is it normal that after rooting, some apps such as clean master show notification of root access denied sometimes?

walkman doesnt recognize music after handset is at standby
Hi again. I have sony xperia c and I think after rooting it I have created a problem. The walkman app which is in-built doesnt detect music when the handset is used after standby. I keep rebooting but after a few minutes its the same. I have tried media scanner, clearing data in walkman and media storage but its the same. Please help. Did I destroy my phone?:crying:

Help please, my walkman app stops detecting music. Is it possible that these glitches are occurring due to the live wallpaper picker app I installed? Just a crazy thought :crying:

You can find the Album App attached below. Place this in your system>>app folder using Root Explorer and give the permission as "RW-R--R--" and reboot your phone.

Ok, do i need to install the app after placing there or just simply place the file there?

Ok, its still not working, when i want to set a picture as wallpaper it doesnt show the cropping mode, neither does it set the lock screen

Also i just uniinstalled the quickpic app, so that setting wallpaper finds its first preference in album, but when i did try it said that com.sonyericsson.album has stopped, and it says the album has stopped.

Hello, help please, reply please

iSiddharth, I really love your works. I have also flashed the lollipop rom.
I followed the instuctions, but I didn't get good result. When deleting the same name apks, I also deleted android live wallpapers by a mistake. And the other point which I can't get is that where are those .odex files to delete? I didn't find Live Wallpapers.odex nor LiveWallpapersPicker.odex . Maybe because of these I didn't get successful result, but can you please help?

Theme app doesnt work (Mi4C)

Hi, i have Mi4c running on MIUI 7 Stable version 7.1.6.0 (LXKCNCK).
My theme app doesnt work properly where there's no preview in the app and i cannot download themes from the app.
I've tried download the mtz files from web and click the import button, it failed.
I've been googling around but no solution.
i cleared the app data and cache but still the same.
screenshot attached.

download that - http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/6-3-10-11.30529/page-5#post-279352
install it...
open the theme manager just to confirm it works...
delete the files from storage EXCEPT the Miui folder...
reset device and install the Miui rom you want...
same happens to me when i completely clear storage and install sMiui... for some reason it needs the MIUI files from the weekly release rom...

S7 Olympic edition theme

Hi,
I have been trying to purchase this theme but paid themes are not available in my country. I then resorted to sideloading the theme by installing the trial version and using package disabler pro but it doesn't seem to work anymore. Help me! I really like the theme.

Try this . Install the theme. Go into priv-app, theme setting . Rename themesetting.apk to themesetting.bak restart your phone before your trail end ... you will need to be rooted and have some type of rooted file explorer for this to work...

Too bad I am not rooted but thanks anyways.

After you applied the theme , you need to clear data application of theme ( Applications->show application system->theme->clear data ) after that you need to disable theme store with package disabler.
You need to do the same steps when you reboot the phone.
Hope it works,
Sorry for bad english.

I got stuck on this as well. What worked for me was, after disabling the theme store service, make sure you kill the running instance of it. Go into settings app manager and find the themes services and kill what's running before it rolls back your theme. Make sure you disable/freeze the service first then kill the running instance.
