my file folder and active applications widget? - Nexus 7 Themes and Apps

Noob here so take it easy. Just got my nexus 7 running stock JB. Looking for a my file folder similar to ginger bread on my gs 2 skyrocket.where do the files go when I down load them from emails ? On ginger bread I get a my file folder. Where is this in JB so I can access the files stored on the hard drive ?
Also is there and active applications widget like on ginger bread so I can quickly see how many things are running and exit some apps quickly to save battery life?

No response?

Returning to stock clock app

Howdy all! I searched at home last night and again this morning on my phone but have been unable to find help on my particular issue.
I just flashed randomrom hawk and randomking replaced the stock clock app (with the gentle wakeup options that I need to prevent a heart attack every morning) with the desk clock app.
I've tried two methods but to no avail:
1. Using root explorer I copied the stock app into /system/app and modified the permissions to match the rest of the folder (rw-r--r-- I think, anyway it matches), then rebooting
2. I added the apk directly to the zip file and reflashed (checking with root explorer, permissions still match
In both cases, all of the functions work EXCEPT creating an alarm (timer, etc are fine) which causes an immediate force close.
Does it have to do with randomrom being deodexed and the app is from a stock rom? Any help would be greatly apprciated!

Try a ginger bread version
The froyo versions don't have gb compatibility

Yep, that fixed it. The clock apk I'd found must have been from froyo.
It never crossed my mind that the stock apps would change between versions but obviously it makes sense.
Thanks gt!

(REQ) Transparent Weather Widget

I was wondering if anyone can make the Accuweather widget as transparent as the default clock widget?

I hear ya. I'm hoping to find the same weather/clock widget I had on my Evo 4G. This two piece deal on the E4GT is not as slick, animated or accurate as the one I had on the Evo. I really miss the windshield wiper when it rains. Gave my Evo to the wife, and tried getting off of there,... no luck. I guess I just don't know what I'm doing or what to look for.
If you download a theme like the venum ics or venum black&white, just unzip it on your PC. Take the apk for weather out and move it to your phone's SD card. Then use Root Explorer to push it to system/apps and either save over the original or rename the original with .bak at the end of the file name (like blah.apk.bak). If you rename, you just have to copy the new file in to the directory and you're set.
Just make sure u thank venum team afterwards!

This is correct. Almost all our themes have the clear time and weather...

[Q] ICS Folder feature and LauncherPro.

Hello,
Is it somehow possible to use the folder feature that is launched with Android 4.0.1/Ice Cream Sandwich with LauncherPro?
I've installed LauncherPro and I'm very pleased with how it works. I've been using it with every phone I've owned that has been an Android device, and I feel it's very sad that I am not able to use the new folder feature system that came with Android ICS.
Is there a possibility that you can install an .APK and from that have the ability to still stack the programs on the homescreen?
Thanks in advance.
same problem with adw ex. Patience. I like stock a lot though. Might roll with it.

The new folder feature is built into the stock launcher. Launcher Pro is a launcher replacement with its own feature set. The two programs are mutually exclusive.

Wallpapers - Where Are They Stored?

Just a quick question, does anyone know where the default wallpapers are stored?
I ran a quick search and serched manually but couldn't find them. I'd just like to add a couple more to keep my SD Card folder a bit tidy.
Thanks
? you can put custom wallpapers anywhere on your phone, it'll become recognized in the gallery app.
I'm not sure about ICS but for previous versions of android they are in the launcher2.apk

Yep they're in there. Launcher2.apk\res\drawable-xhdpi\wallpaper_name.jpg
Hmm, that's a shame.
Although could I replace that APK with another one with a few more added? The reason being, is I want to have some wallpapers in the phone, that will show up when I go to change a wallpaper but which will not appear in my gallery.
you can make a wallpaper folder, put a .nomedia file in it and then use a filebrowser app to set your wallpaper. not the easiest thing to do but it'll work.
additionally you can download a custom gallery like quickpic that lets you hide folders.

Is it possible to put Cm10 browser on TW rom?

Generally aosp stays there; best thing to do is to rip the apk from an aosp rom, then manually push it to the system and set permissions; go for it bro.
