Hi guys

I am struggling to copy this to /system/apps using ES file explorer... I get file cannot be moved. I try copy and I get copy failed. Any ideas?

I'm on Omega 9 by the way.

Thanks

Did you mount system as read/ write before trying to move?

I'm on a Xperia Play and my News and Weather app (GenieWidget.apk) suddenly couldn't connect to the internet no more :confused:
So i reinstalled it, same result, decided to install this version; same result.
It worked perfectly all the time before...
Any ideas how to solve this would be welcome :D

btw. none of my other apps have internet connections problems...

Help Please

Hum, i've just download and installed the htcmania's version (last post from Armin van buuren) and it's working in a stock and un-rooted galaxy s3.

Thanks :D
Can you please advise me how I install this Genie app for my non-rooted S3.
I've downloaded the zip folder from Armin van buuren's link.

Which unzips to four folders: 1) data, 2) META-INF, 3) system, 4) vrtheme

Now what? Please help...... please :confused:

Easy as

Is there any way to install this on non-rooted SGS3?
Yes its dead easy. The idiots guide to installing the News and Weather Genie app

  1. As I cant post links in this forum, do a search for
    [MOD][07-23-12]TRANSPARENT Genie Widget from Android 4.1 JB (BLUE AND MIUI COLORS!) thunderteaser
  2. Find the first post in that thread by thunderteaser
  3. "Click for QR code" and use a QR scanner app on your phone to download directly to your S3.
  4. Open installer and Viola! it's done.
  5. No messing about with ROMS or anything, just need to have a free QR scanner which is easy to find from any App Store.
