How to get the REAL Circles widget on OG RAZR

Hey everyone I came across this during my search on getting the circles widget found on the RAZR M and HD onto my OG RAZR. It is a download link to get the widget, but the widget will only work when you're using the RAZR M home, not ANY other home application. So what you need to do is download the .zip file and put the .apks onto your phone. You'll need every .apk except the home screen settings apk. The M home app isn't 100% useable, I found that the "Quick settings" screen when you go to the left of the homescreen force closes the home app every time I try to toggle a setting on/off so I don't know if it would happen to everyone. But, here's the link and have some fun, enjoy :) Below is my homescreen on my RAZR with the clock on it.

Correction, every toggle but the GPS toggle works on the quick settings screen.

If you change the launcher to a system app the gps toggle doesn't force close. Plus it runs a lot smoother.

How do you make it a system app?

I used titanium backup. Are You rooted?

No I am not

This has been covered before. Install the launcher, circles and weather make them system apps. The launcher will run super fast and all the toggles work.

For the benefit of the other members (me included), could you elaborate? I have the same issues with the launcher and am not aware of the solution you referred to. Where do we find the files (i.e. names and locations on the phone)? What changes are made to the permissions to make them system files? Any help would be greatly appreciated. :D

Definitely supporting a guideline on how to make something run as a system app..

I used titanium backup to change mine. Go into backup and restore find home screen that you downloaded, long press it and one of the options is to convert to system app. It does its little thing, and then I reboot. It was as easy as that for me. I might not completely sure how to change it otherwise. But you have to be rooted for my method.
