ADW Launcher + Beautiful Widget

My home in DHD with ADW Launcher & Beautiful Widget.
Wallpaper by zedge!!

so as a android and DHD newbies how did you getting it looking like that and what is the android icon in the top left?

He changed the look of the phone by replacing HTC Sense with a program called ADW Launcher. You can get it in the Market. A program with the same capability is Launcher Pro. Check it out

thanks very much i will give them a go

The icon is for a task killer app - which you don't need!

I don't like the style personaly but it's original ^^

hi guys, short question...i am new to android, so if i install awd or launcher pro, do i have to uninstall/deactivate sense first? can i switch back to sense?

When a new App is installed, which changes some standard behaviour, you will be prompted which App you want to use. After installing LauncherPro press HOME Key, you will be asked, which App should be taken for that. You can also check the box for useing it every time.
When you want to go back, you have to reset that thing in Settings - Application.
So you can easily go back to Sense. Or you can uninstall LauncherPro, same effect.

thanks for the info. i will try it...

Hey guys, I have just installed ADW Launcher and set it as default but now I can not find the Home button to long press and back to HTC Sense?
Here is my homescreen, How can I find this home button to leave ADW?

It should be the same as LauncherPro. Go in settings -> Manage app -> Choose ADW and Clear Default ( if I remember well I don't have it installed atm )

Hi, thanks for sharing this with us, but why did you open a new thread instead of posting in the Show your display thread???
There's a warning in the forum rules about opening new threads when a similar one alrady exists.

[Q] Unable to install lockscreen widgets

I have a (rooted) P7-L10 running the latest update (2.3). I am unable to enable lockscreen widgets through Settings: Security as there is no such option available. Consequently, I am unable to install any lockscreen widgets. In fact, the only lockscreen option is the Huawei Unlock with no additional lockscreen pages, and no '+' sign to add any widgets, etc.
Any help to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated as I am extremely interested in using DashClock (especially with DashNotifier).
Thank you in advance for any guidance.

I just checked and when the option should appear if the "Huawei Unlock" method is used. The option doesn't appear if you use something else (at least not on my phone).

Where does the option to enable lockscreen widgets appear for you when Huawei Unlock is selected? I have it enabled as well, and cannot find te option anywhere.

just under, in the "security" panel. I wish I could post pictures but I ****ed up by deleting the systemui.apk and I'm waiting for someone to upload his so I could fix my phone.

Thank you for your replies. I guess it is just somehow missing from my system as there is no such option in the security panel no matter what unlocking option I choose.
If you or anyone else knows how I can get the option back, it would be greatly appreciated.

Use an other theme. For exemple, I use paper rhyme and I have this option. But you can't have widget as default, you have to switch everytime on lockscreen :/

It is probably caused by Nova Launcher which I am really like and do not want to give up.
Any way, I have moved on to Plan B, and installed KK Locker, which is working out really well.
Thank you both for trying to help...

I am using Nova Launcher and Widgets in the lock screen are working. Are you using the right procedure? After enabling in the Setting > Security > thick, in home screen swipe DOWN until you see a padlock icon at the bottom THEN swipe to left or right and you can add the Widget!

That's the whole problem Sergiopi; there is no 'Enable Lockscreen WIdgets" option in my Security settings panel for me to check.
I get the exact lock sign you mentioned in my main lockscreen only after I install and use KK Locker. Otherwise, no widget option and no lock upon swipe down.

Thank you!

Thank you Nomaro; that was it. The stupid 'Balance' theme disables lockscreen widgets and forces its own "Magazine Lock' on the lockscreen. I changed the theme as you suggested, and voila! the option to enable widgets showed up.
Thank all those who tried to help.

glad you got it working!
now a little question about widgets:
can one of you tell me how to remove the main widget (the clock) or use another widget as the "main page" for the lock screen? I can't find anything working on the internet as everything I found just tells we to "click" it and delete it by swiping up like for a widget on the home screen, except it doesn't work.
help please ^^

I had/have the same problem. I figured out that I need to change theme of lockscreen, but no widgets seem to be working, anyways, only those of system apps.

[Q] Lockscreen

Hi everyone,
I was woundering if there is any third party lockscreen that works on 5C.
Why I'm woundering is because I'm so tiered of not be able to have widgets
on lockscreen, like Dashclock and so on.
So, I's there any third party lockscreen that works out there ?
Best regards

You should be able to. Just download one and change your default one to the new one in settings, apps, advanced settings...
I am sure you must have tried that...

I can't change lockscreen under apps - advanced - default app settings
so there is my first problem. And when I have tried WidgetLocker, I either get two lockscreens, or it doesen't work at all.

There is no safe way to do it without a custom ROM.

Touchwiz tips and tricks?

This thread is for anyone who have questions on touchwiz and hopefully we can offer answers.
I know we can swipe up or down to get in the app drawer. But is there a way to customize that swipe feature? Can I swipe down to access my status bar and notifications?

You just need to update your Touchwiz Launcher and long press on the homescreen -> settings -> swipe to open notification panel. I'll attach what I think is one of, if not the, latest versions available. Just download it and install it, or go google it yourself if you prefer to.

I don't really know why it's not available. I remember reading somewhere about this feature and I just searched for the apk in apkmirror last week.
Also, somebody uploaded an apk here in xda which enables black navbar color option in navbar settings. (Sorry, I can't remember in which thread it was/who uploaded it) I'll attach it here in case you or anybody else wants a black navigation bar.

DON'T INSTALL APK's FROM UNTRUSTED SOURCES!
Trusted APK's can be found on APKMirror!

Remove persistent Google search bar

I've been looking through the settings on my Lenovo Zuk Z2 plus for days, but I cannot find a way to REMOVE GOOGLE SEARCH BAR from all pages of my homescreen. Please help me to get rid of it! Long-press on it has no effect like regular widgets so can't drag and drop it.

Do you have a custom rom or another launcher ? Long-press on empty place and go to settings ( mostly)

It's the stock interface that came with the phone. Long press on the search bar does not select it. Long press anywhere on the wallpaper opens the widgets, wallpaper and settings, but what further? I cannot find the option to turn it off in the settings either. I can't believe it's so hard.
