[Q] Can't load Genie Widget aka "News and Weather" widget - Motorola Photon 4G

Ok so on my old Froyo phone I had the stock News and Weather widget from Google (aka Genie Widget). I've found a few different apk files online and none of them seem to work on my Photon. My phone is rooted and it seems to install the apk without any errors. However, when I try to load the widget/app I get the following message:
Sorry!
The application News and Weather (process com.google.android.apps.genie.geniewidget) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Anyone know why this isn't working for the Photon? I really love this widget, and miss having it on my phone.
Thanks!
Here's a pic of what I'm talking about...

Pull one from a gingerbread rom. That should work

Thanks, I was able to find one from a gingerbread build. I attached it in case anyone else wants it as well.
Any chance anyone has one that is also transparent??
Thanks!

[Q] Working calculator apk?

I tried using the calculator.apk from my Droid, but I get a parsing error message when I try to install it on the NC. Anyone have a working original calculator app? Thanks.

Did you root with auto-noot? It installs the stock Android calculator app, which works great on mine.
Yep, the nearly useless AOSP Calculator works fine here too.
Now Droid48 on the NC. That's freakin' awesome.

Calulator?
Using RealCalc Scientific Calculator here.
Free in the Market.
Seconding Realcalc. Wolfram Alpha also works.

Thanks all. I rooted manually, before the newer method came out and really don't feel like starting over. I'll check out the suggested apps.
HandyCalc is the best, does graphing, currency/unit conversion, etc... Completely rocks the ass off the standard calc or RealCalc.

Help Locating theme/app elements

Ok theme/app gurus, I have a humble request for you. I was updating my apps last night, and as I usually do, I was checking the changelog to see what changes had been made. When I got to Pandora, I saw this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now, the mini-icons, clock and pandora widget are irrelevant. Does anyone happen to know what is being used to put the dropbar at the bottom and the app menu at the top? I love the way that looks and would like to get on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A touchwiz based rom, robbiekhans picture that is could be VR or gingermod if I'm taking a wild guess.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
This could be ANY ROM. It is just a LauncherPro/GoLauncher with custom homescreen and gingerbread icons (battery, signal etc).
The weather widget is called Snowstorm (free on android market)
Down below is agenda widget with transparent background and on the bottom is set of icons.
The setup is similiar to this: http://browse.deviantart.com/customization/screenshots/handhelds/?order=9&offset=4728#/d3fv3ae
Thanks, I'm mostly interested on the text icons setup at the bottom.
Any idea what he used to have them replaced like that?

I already said that
You need to use Launcher Pro OR Go Launcher
You can get the icons from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17651027&postcount=44156

oh no, im talking about this widget...the little bar that you can turn on and off the voice or compose a msg etc..
Never even seen that. It may have been in an older version of voice that was lost during the updates of the app.

The likelihood is that this will not work on the tablet due to mismatches in the sense versions, you could just end up with a whole mess of FC's
