How to get the Tasks Widget back? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Since Android 4.1 Samsung removed the Task Widget from their S Planner Application.
Is it possible to get it back somehow?
Perhaps we can use the Widget from the Planner which came with Android 2.3.6.

I have a Galaxy S4 and I use S-Voice to create Tasks. They are added to the local db (not to Google and neither to the Samsung account but just local!) but I have no Task Widget. Apparently it was available on other Android version.
I downloaded the apk from aptoide but it does not install. I tried normal installation and tried to remove the original apk from /system/app and replace it with the aptoide one, but it seems it is not installed.
Any suggestion to have a Task Widget for SPlanner tasks?
Many thanks!

[Q] What's the widget called?

the one that displays how many apps are running, then once you click on it, allows you to see the name of the running apps and the ability to close/kill them: what is the name of it and can i find it on the market/outside source somewhere? i'd like to install it without installing the i9000 rom. any help is appreciated.
You mean the one that comes with the I9000? It's just called Task Manager I think. Might be a Samsung proprietory app so probably not on the Market
thanks! that's probably the one. is there a link to the samsung apps/widgets? i thought i saw something like that around here, but i can't locate it now.

No idea, I think you'll probably need someone to extract the .apk out of the ROM
well, it turns out the widget is called "Program Monitor" and from what i've found, it's not compatibple with launcherpro. =(
*EDIT*
tried installing the widget (SamsungWidget_ProgramMonitor.apk), and i get "application not installed". oh well.

Yeah, I found it disappeared when I installed LauncherPro, so I just stuck a shortcut to the Task Manager on the home screen
Yeah, the Samsung Widgets like HTC's sense widgets will only work with their respective launchers, and not ADW / LauncherPro etc.
Sucks, cos I wanted to run the task manager widget next to my BatteryLife one

Wizz or other functioning scrolling FB widget?

Does anyone know of a scrolling Facebook widget that works? I use Colorize on my SGS II and the dev has released the Wizz FB widget which is exactly what I want, but it never updates itself. I'm using the ADW launcher, btw. Oh, and I don't like those "flip board" type widgets (a la CNN).
I have the same problem it doesn't work on stock or launcher pro.

Two things:
1. If the widget is "working", then a manual update forces it to update. The auto-update is basically non-functional. I'm on Honeycomb 3.1.
2. Usually at least once a day, the widget goes "blank" and I need to delete it and re-add it as a widget.

Uninstalled:
o F-Secure
o Car Home
o LG Email (installed stock android e-mail instead, it actually works with Exchange.)
o PC Suite
o On Screen Phone and related services
o LG Launcher (don't do this unless you're sure you'll not need to factory reset.)
o SNS (Twitter/Facebook, official apps are better.)
o All LG-widgets except for Messages and Calendar.
o Voice Search
If you're unsure if uninstalling an app will mess up your phone, just freeze it instead. (If you're using Titanium Backup, which you should, you can get it to remove it from the Market and app-screen as well, making it appear completely uninstalled. If your phone doesn't do anything strange for a week then it's probably safe to uninstall it for real.)
::Trym
thanks TrymHansen...
i do have Titanium backup pro. i'm a veteran of the galaxy i7500, so i did alot of freezing and uninstalling.
i opened this thread to compile a list of safe prof uninstalling so everyone will benefit
from it.
your reply is great contribution in that cause.
How you uninstalled all these apps?
Optimus2XPrime -
1. you need to have root (read how to in the Development sector).
2. you need to install any uninstalling tool from the market (Titanium backup for example).
3. you need to be very careful with what you uninstall so the phone will still be usable.
4. advice - uninstall stuff thet you read others have and reported it's fine...

1) done
2) downloaded
3-4) will be done
P.S some minutes after my post I found the answer
what does freeze do ?
removes selected app from app drawer and cannot be started by user and/or system. like they are uninstalled, but still there, occupying few megabytes. can easily be un-freezed from Titanuim
Isnt there any free software ? titanium is paid one

to Freeze LG Facebook, Freeze "SNS".
Music 1.0 vs 2.2.2 - One is the music widget, one is the player.

Can I add custom apps to touchwix favourites

I have rooted and installed Null, with Nova launcher however i much prefer the touchwiz interface because the watch face i like is full screen.
Anyway, I have google voice search installed and would like to add the app to the favourites list. Is this possible as it doesnt show on on the gear manager on my s3
Thanks

i don't know which watch face are you using, i never had problem with watch faces being full screen.. but if you really like touchwiz (yuck!) best you could probably do is to remake it all using desktop visualizer plugin. that's like 15 minutes top i think.

Its just that there is a small border going all around the clock face, it doesnt go right to the edges.
Im not really clued up on coding or designing, so unless there is a setting to make this happen I'd be pretty clueless
I notice all apps that installed with null show on my gear manager and can be set as a favourite. Anyway I can do this for apps installed myself, like the google search app?

I think they need to be system apps and you need to wipe/reconnect gear before they turn up in gm

Sorry I don't understand... If I wipe my gear that will remove the google search app? How can I then add it as a favourite?

System apps stay on device and don't get wiped (I think you can use something like titanium backup to convert app to a system app or move the apk to /system/app). Then once you wipe your device and reconnect to gear manager, gear manager will add it to list of installed apps. Just click the plus sign to add to favourites

Thanks, I don't feel confident enough to start messing with system apps just yet.
Funny enough, When I installed google search it installed two widgets, google now and google search bar. They appear in gear manager and can be added to the favourites screen. How's this possible.

Right, plucked up the courage to try this and it worked - google remained installed.
Problem is, it is the widgets that show up in the gear manager, not the app. Any ideas?
If anyone has a solution to this problem please please help me.
It's the one thing I want to make this device perfect for my needs. I just cant seem to get the google voice search icon on my favourites.
I've moved the google search app to a ssytem app and it just gives the options in gear manager for the widgets not the app icons.

Have you thought about using an app like gmd gesture control? You could just create a gesture shortcut to it

Seems to be an issue with 1.6 or ml1. Both are leaks, so either wait for official or go back in version

Galaxy Gear Tizen Apps

Hey everyone,
I just got a Galaxy Gear 1 and updated it to Tizen. I paired it with my HTC One, and everything works fine, but I'd like to get a few more apps for the gear, maybe a calculator and a weather app or something. I searched google, but I can't find a place I can download Tizen apps or wgt files without using the gear manager, which doesn't give me an option to download apps on my non samsung phone. So my question is obviously where can I get these apps?
In the gear manager app on your phone there is an selection for gear apps, you may need to set up a Samsung account.

Hi, can you give a link to the working instructions for installing apps? What a rom on your gear?
