I find the weather widgets drain my battery like crazy - so I just search "weather *zip code*"
Is it possible to make a shortcut to this search, or to a bookmark of it in Dolphin Mini, on my ADW Launcher home screen?
Not sure about Dolphin but you can if you use the stock browser.

After using LauncherPro and being fed up with it's poor performance, I decided to switch over to the much lighter weight Zeam Launcher. However I'm looking for certain free or paid widgets to replace what was available to me in TWLauncher as Samsung widgets or the LauncherPro widgets. Specifically, I'm looking for large friends stream, calendar and bookmarks widgets which I could use with Zeam.. Alternately, is there any way I could use the LP or even the Samsung widgets in Zeam Launcher ?
for friend streams Tweetdeck is a good one which can be found othe marker for free.
As for calendar there is another free widget on the market just search up calendar widget.

Well, I didn't really like TweetDeck. I'm looking for a widget that brings twitter and facebook updates straight to my desktop and is scrollable. I'll check out the calendar widgets...
Bump.
Guys, some help please...
Pure widgets are fine.
You can take a look at them on this website: http://koxx3.wordpress.com/pure-widgets-descriptions/
I especially like pure grid calendar and pure messenger.
Both are not free

Thanks! I'll check them out..
The bookmark sync function of Honeycomb's browser is pretty sweet. I've got about 30 of them, so is really handy.
At this number of links, the bookmark widget slows the device down which makes everything jittery and slow. Screen animations, app startups, etc, etc
Removing the widget resolves this as does reducing the number of bookmarks.
I can totally live without the widget, I'm just curious if anyone else has seen this.
Are you using the stock launcher? I have found issues relating to lag when the honeycomb widgets are used with 3rd party launchers like ADW and LPP...
stock launcher
All scrollable widgets with a lot of data use a lot of system resources, as the images are cached. This definitely causes lag!
I loved the LPP bookmarks widget, but with 50 or more links it would cause lags on my otherwise lightning fast Galaxy Tab.
Try putting some of your bookmarks into folders. Then the os will have less bookmarks to load and wont have any dynamic logos to worry about u til you open that folder. I had bookmarks and 3 mail widgets, got rid of two of the mail widgets and i saw a big improvement
I installed the bookmark widget for Dolphin. The smaller size works great, the larger always shows "problem loading widget" no matter what I do.
Anybody get this to work?
Nobody uses the Dolphin Bookmark widget?
Is there another Bookmark widget instead?
I want to change the google search widget that takes up 4 slots. I only need the voice search. (the microphone icon on the rightmost part of the widget). Can only find one widget size if I try to add it.
If I try to add the "voice search" app from market (which is only 1 icon), it allows me to search but not to do google voice actions. I want something where I can do everything in an icon that only takes up one space. Is this possible through a hack or app?
As far as I know, with custom launchers, you have the ability to resize widgets.
With TW 4.5 by fr4ggor you can do it

YOu can easily do it through Go launcher EX. Just press the widget and you will get the option to resize it. I tried it for search widget.
I use Nova. Sometimes I switch to touchwiz to put some link into the home page to use them with edge menu. But I cannot create app shortcuts, doesnt touchwiz support them? A shortcut is a link to an Activity into and app, f.i. create a new mail in Gmail. Thank you.
