[HTC One X] itandy:
Actually I still think most if not all lockscreen widgets should work. Even without Rosie, we're practically still using a Sense ROM. Lockscreen shortcuts is a rare exception since HTC decided to reuse the Rosie launcher bar app shortcuts. I remember in earlier Sense, it actually allows you to define them separately.

So why don't you try and let us know? ;)
[HTC One X] kleeman7:
It works. I am using productivity lock screen and everything is working. Running VenomXL rom.
[HTC One X] benbailey84:
Works using TN SE 3.7. with apex launcher. Thank you! I desperately wanted the shortcuts for lockscreen but didn't want to use sense... Now maybe if you could make a calculator widget for apex that would be awesome...
[HTC One X] kleeman7:
It stopped working after reboot.
[HTC One X] itandy:
Can you give me a logcat?

It'll be even better if you can give me the xda link of this ROM.
[HTC One X] Calkulin:
This is probably going to be my favorite app as the only reason I leave Rosie installed is for the shortcuts but sadly, this doesn't work on my 2.33 based ROM(Sense 4.1) :( What exactly do you need to make it work for that ROM? Logcat, Rosie.apk, etc?
[HTC One X] itandy:
OMG, you guys already have Sense 4.1 ROM! I can take a look at the problem if you can give me:

Rosie.apk

idlescreen_Base.apk

com.htc.resources.apk

BTW, what's the name of that ROM? And can you describe the problem so that I can have a better idea where to look.
[HTC One X] Calkulin:
I'm running my yet to be released ROM. The problem is that even though it says it notified the lockscreen, no shortcuts ever appear even after rebooting. And please add a apply or done button to the app because the first time I used it, I didn't know that backing out of the app was the way to set the shortcuts ;)

And here are the files you requested

[HTC One X] itandy:
Today I did some testing on various Sense versions and would like to let you know my findings:

Hybrid 4A (e.g. UKB X on IncS) - OK

Sense 4.1 (e.g. ViperX on One X) - OK

Sense 4A (e.g. UKB V on IncS) - No shortcuts in lockscreen

Sense 3.6 (e.g. ARHD on IncS) - Lockscreen shortcuts appears and update correctly but shortcut app cannot be launched when unlock

At this moment, my first priority is to support Sense 3.6. After that I'll work on 4A.

2.Find 2 or 3 apk:

a>GoogleServicesFramework(Check your phone via RE explorer)

b>GoogleLoginService

c>Google play store(lastest version is better)

3.Copy those 2 or 3 apps to your phone(Internal or Extend are ok)

4.Copy them into System/app via RE.explorer

5.Restart your phone.

6.You will find the Google play and now login with your google account.

So I solved my problem with the Xperia S LT26i Chinese:

I found the rom ITA LT26i_6.1.A.2.50_1257-5499_Generic_Italy.zip

and I installed it with flashtool

It was very simple

I did not understand if the device is rooted now

Now the device is fully Italian as if I had bought in my country

Changing file permissions was critical

Thanks for the information and the attachments xjarl!

This worked perfectly for me, but only after I changed the permissions on the 3 files! I bought a Coolpad (Yulong) 8022 with Android 2.3.7 in China through China Mobile. I rooted the phone but was unable to install Google Play until I found this post. I downloaded the attachment, extracted the files and copied the 3 APK files to my system/app folder and rebooted. After installing Google Play and running it, I could browse all the apps in the store but I could not download or install them. The progress bar didn't move.

So I launched Root Explorer and went to the system/app folder. Then I changed the permissions of the 3 APKs: GoogleServicesFramework.apk, GoogleLoginService.apk and Google_Play-v3.8.17.apk to rw-r--r-- to match all the other files in the folder and rebooted. Since then everything has been working fine! Now I can browse the App store and download and install files without a problem!

So, the steps I recommend are:

1. Root your phone.

2. Download the attachment above.

3. Extract GoogleServicesFramework.apk, GoogleLoginService.apk and Google_Play-v3.8.17.apk from the RAR file and copy them to the system/app folder on your phone with Root Explorer.

4. In Root Explorer click Mount R/W. Change the permissions of the 3 files to match the permissions of the other files in the folder (rw-r--r--). Then click Mount R/O and exit Root Explorer.

5. Reboot your phone.

6. Go to Accounts & Sync in your phone's settings, click Add account and enter your Google/GMail account details.

7. Go to your apps and Launch Google Play.

I'm guessing that this will work on any Android phone. Good luck!

Crashing

I hope someone can help me here. I have a Green Orange N1.

The first thing i tried was to simply install vending apk.

App was crashing before loading.

I tried this method and followed all steps

Root - adding 3 apk to system/app - set permissions- but no luck. Google play still crashes.

I tried also with different G Play versions and still i can't access the application.

Do you have any idea about other steps?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jsoto77:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gorelk:
I got it working by downloading different versions of GoogleServicesFramework

i have found 3 versions on the first page searching for GoogleServicesFramework.apk on google

One of them was 2.3M not 4M and it worked. i have also downloaded different GoogleLoginService

Now all google apps work perfectly except for voice search... looks like it doesn't connect.

I can give commands and it keeps searching. don't know if it depends on the GoogleLoginService i installed.

My solution is probably messing up something.

It would be really nice to know which versions of Framework or LoginServices are available andhow to choose the right ones for 4.2 or 4.1.

hope someone can explain here

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] odiate:
This kinda works with a bit of play around

These files are KING!!!!

This method works if you root your phone!

I rooted my phone(Samsung Galaxy S4) bought from China loaded with spam and bloatware. The phone by default has a whole load of crap installed into the system apps folder and can't be deleted unless rooted!!!

I rooted using:

Odin3 v3.07

cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar

Google_play.rar

SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1_3_2300_0

System App Remover

Root Explorer

Step 1: Put phone in USB debugging mode in order for ODIN to successfully detect and install 'cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar'

Step 2: Power phone on holding Volume Down, Menu Button and Power Button. (This put it in download mode)

Step 3: Plug phone into PC(Ensure USB drivers have been installed)

Step 4: Open ODIN

Step 5: Select PDA and locate 'cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar'

Step 6: Click Start (Sit back it takes a few)

Step 7: Once completed immediately unplug battery before phone restarts.(This apparently ensures the CWM will root the phone for S4 new security)

Step 8: Power phone on using Volume Up, Menu Button and Power Button.

Step 9: Root phone option

Step 10: Install from SD card

Step 11: Select the CWM option

Step 12: Restart phone from the options

Step 13 : Super User app should now be installed on the phone

Step 14 : Given that you can't access google play you may need to download apps via pc or web browser on your mobile.

Step 15 : Download the following apps a) Root Explorer b) System App Remover.

Step 14 : Be smart and write down the names of the apps you need to remove and take note of the icons.

Step 15 : Delete what you can through System App Remover (Some will not delete through this app but you'll understand a little later)

Step 16 : Once you've deleted what you can, open Root explorer.

Step 17 : Copy the Google Play files (There are 3) into a directory you can find on your phone.

Step 18 : These files should be stored on SD in Root Explorer, Tap Hold and Move.

Step 19 : Go to System then Apps.

Step 20 : Paste and extract the folder.

Step 21 : Delete the remaining apps that System App Remover couldn't remove.( be careful deleting the wrong apps can be troublesome)

Step 22: NB!!!! Change the permissions on theses 3 apps to all permissions or your phone will keep bringing up alerts and freezing!!!!!

Step 23 : In any event copying the framework from another device you will be forced to do a Factory Reset to have it all fully functional!!!!

This worked for me. Thought I'd put the full list of instructions because it took me a few hours to gather all this info from a mix of sites.

All credit to everyone I resourced to finally get this working!!! This seems to have been an unresolved one on many sites with no tutorials for newbs.

Did it without rooting

Thanks for the advice. I just wanted to point out that I was able to install the Google Play store on 2 Huawei phones in China without rooting them. I just downloaded the APKs and installed them using the Android installer. I was relieved that rooting and changing permission was unnecessary.

I found that installing the Google Play apk by itself was enough (but I opted for a newer version than the one posted here). I also updated both phones to the latest firmware before doing this. This may have helped get rid of any limitations imposed by the mobile phone carrier (China Mobile, China Unicom, etc.).

On a friend's coolpad, however, I did have to install the additional 2 APKs to get the Google Play store to work and he still was not able to sync his Google calendar and contacts after that. So unfortunately YMMV.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] TweaknFreak:
I'm using Xiaomi Redmi Note LTE on the Chinese ROM and I flashed Gapps and they work without any trouble. Search for the Gapps package for your Android version in XDA. But remember never to update the Google Apps from Playstore. If you do update to a different Android version (for example your OEM decides to give an update from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4) in that case Gapps may or may not work. If it doesn't then uninstall them using Root Explorer and flash you new version Gapps.

BUT MAKE SURE TO DO NANDROID BACKUP FROM YOUR CWM/TWRP RECOVERY.

Hope I made myself clear.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lostinthecity:
I have lived in China for a few years and installing Google Play on my phones has been real hit or miss. As well, I have always had to first root any phones before installing Google Play and I usually did so with Chinese language software. Maybe some of the problems arise from rooting the phones using non-Chinese software as many of these phones are manufactured to deny users access to Google products. But as for my phones: TY brand phone would not run Play, but my Xiaomi and ZTE brand phones ran it no problem.

As a side note, I can also not get Google Play to function on several devices I brought from America, namely my Amazon devices.

The easiest way I've found is flashing gapps via recovery (if you have a recovery like cwm or twrp)

The app was called google installer by eric xiang.

If you search " eric xiang google" one of the first results is a apk which installed gapps for me

Try installing Google Play Services app

Have had the same issues after following the steps of installing the 3 apk and changing the file permission on my Huawei G330D. Google Play did not connect and after a while force closed. I found that my other phones with accessible Play Store always have this Google Play Services app running in the background and therefore I searched on Google and installed this. Then Play Store connected and updated to the latest version and I was able to browse through the apps in Play Store.

As for Google Framework Service, based on my experience of flashing phones, each Android version has its corresponding Google Framework Service app, so it's imperative to verify that the Google Framework Service matches the installed Android version to prevent any errors.
