Here is just one that I found when I typed the word 'widgets' in the search box above. Some are pretty cool. There are a lot more.

Thanks ponyexpress.... what i meant was were in like root explorer do i find the stock widgets so i can transfer them to a new rom
Sent from my based out og using xda-developers app

Widgets are stored in the apk they are for.
So unless you downloaded just a widget (which is still an apk) they are embedded in an app.
A lot of manufacturer launchers include their own which can't be used on another launcher or ROM.
So you probably want one in the LGhome app.
If not, check which apps you no longer have.

FYI: Included stock widgets are found in /system/app/. You can download a rom to your computer, extract the widgets you want, put them on your sd card, then copy them to your current rom (putting them in /system/app/), set permissions, and finally reboot.

Genie widget.

Good day EVO enthusiasts, I'm posting in hopes that someone may have a solution to our problem. The genie widget doesn't work on the EVO. Anyone know why and is there a fix I should know about. Genie is my favorite news supplier. Can't function without it. Searched everywhere, can't find a suitable substitute. Feel free to point me in the right direction if you guys know of fix or a decent substitute. Thanks

I can't deal without it either bro. Pulse isn't enough. I tried installing genie today but it won't work. I need it!!! Not having it makes me like this evo 3d far less than my evo.
Man. I have 2 that will install. A transparent and smoke... I'll post them later tonight

I take no credit for this, but it works well----unzip it and you'll find the apk in there someplace. It works well on my 3vo

You need a file manager like andexplorer or astro. Then just open it, find the apk and install

Rooting and apps coming from EVO

Well so I finally root my thunderbolt , today I had enough time after work, anyways , I have the original Rom the I have to download to root and it has all those Verizon apps and other crappy like rock band and what not, in Sprint you could practically take everything out, is it the same for Verizon ? Or are there any apps that I can't uninstall everything form Sprint or are there any apps like backup assistant that I can't ? Thanks for the help , and what roms you guys recommend ? I was using synergy Rom rc1 on EVO but it looks like the only got nightlies on thunderbolt , anything else that includes HTC hub and such ? Thanks for the help again

You can remove most of what you want, just make a back up and use common sense. As far as ROMs there're plenty of good ones, I personally like team BAMF's work.

Here is a list of the roms. I am running Das-Bamf's Gingrebread de-sensed, stripped down version. I like it, but if you go Gingerbread, you will have to download and flash the new radio. I would suggest trying a few of the fryo Roms first, and go form there. here is a link to a thread with a list of roms.

Renaming them should remove them from your app drawer. Root Explorer or another app like it should make this very easy.

[APP] screenshot

does anyone have a screenshot apk? im using virtuous doubleshot and unfortunately there isnt a built in screenshot option like MIUI and ics (unless im missing something here.. lol). but yeah i was just wondering if anyone had one. i dont have the money to purchase one from the market, and my parents both have the g2x so its built in for them and they think its a waste of money (yeah idk). the free one(s) suck since their last update. i also tried 4shared and no luck. just wondering if anyone had one, that's all. thanks!
have you tried holding the power button and while holding power button pressing home.
Yeah. Just turns off the screen, opens my home screens or opens my power options. This is for virtuous doubleshot.

Just copy to system
Set permissions to r/w, r, r

I changed the permissions but where do I copy it to after? Local/system/data cuz I don't have that folder.. But I'm pretty sure I'm looking in the wrong place.. Lol

I'm sorry. I guess me putting system/data made it a bit confusing. Ok, once you copy it to system and set permissions, just move it to the data folder then reboot.
Shouldn't it be /system/app..? Its an apk right?

Your semi correct lil boy. APK means Android Package and just because its *.apk does not mean it will be always placed on /system/app. In in this case he can use it as system app or install it manually which will place it on /data/data.
But OP did you ever try ShootMe? It was virtually the best screenshot app ever made for android. So try it if not use something else.

If you have SDK installed on a computer just use ddms.bat to take screen shots works well..

What I thought was funny was that I loaded Nova Launcher on my phone. Then all of a sudden I had 4 apps that weren't there in the Sense launcher. Now I have "Car", "Flash Player Settings", "PDF Viewer", and "Polaris Office". So, you don't have to be rooted. The apps all work. But for some reason, Sense for AT&T is hiding the apps. Use another launcher. It'll be there.

Yes, you can even just download one of those widgets that just launches apps (I use Circle Launcher or More Icons Widget) and it shows up in their list.
It's there. Install quick shortcutmaker and create a shortcut to it
Can someone just upload the apk from the international version?
It's on the phone already. You would just need to "unhide" it by using another launcher or one of the apps previously mentioned.

Or we could just do it the right way and install the apk (if someone ups it) and it will add it to the Sense Launcher.... instead of Installing another app and or launcher.

it does fail to install... but... did exactly what i wanted it to do. The icon is now in the tray.
:highfive:
[update]
This breaks after reboot. Then tried uninstalling updates from app manager... and it completely uninstalled it... without root access.
Doesnt make sense. Possibly do this for all bloat to get rid of it without root...

I loaded ARHD several times and could not get the camera to work, it just hangs when launched. Were you able to get around that? I figured this was AT&T specific.
Download the newest 6.0
There was an issue before with the build that caused camera and WiFi issues.
Should be fixed now tho.

Oh don't get me wrong, it's still an amusing app. It's new and a beta release. There's room for improvement. Like if I type a celebrities name, I want to see the celebs Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Not just what people are tweeting and hash tagging about the celeb. It's basically displaying Google results in app format. I'd like it much more of it was a widget instead of home launcher. At least I can keep it as an app.

If you type it out as everything.me, it will show up in the search bar where you can then click on it in the app store. But you are right, even searching for it correctly it won't show up in the list of apps. My guess would be because it is in beta. I believe the app store recently opened itself to beta apps, but they may be stored separately.
They are now available in parts of Europe.
