2.1 genie weather widget - clear version

Thursday, February 04, 2010

please welcome the clear version of the genie news and weather widget to the lineup of nexus one/android 2.1 apps to our ever-growing list.  this runs exactly the same as the old version, but is slightly tweaked to appear clear on your desktop.

i recommend that you have a dark background when using this.  screencap of my desktop shows why...


steps for installation:

1.  go into settings -> applications and check the "unknown sources" box.
2.  visit this post from your phone's browser.
3.  tap and download this file onto your phone:  GenieWidget-transparent.apk  (alt link)
4.  once downloaded go into astro file manager and "downloads" folder.
5.  tap on "Genie_Widget-transparent".
6.  tap "open app manager"
7.  tap install.

the rest of the android 2.1 apps you need:

1.  nexus one / sense ui launcher
2.  new eclair gallery with multi-touch
3.  genie news and weather 2.1
4.  launcher 2.1
5.  music app 2.1
6.  clock app 2.1
7.  flan gallery 2.1
