I am currently running ARHD and I used Rom cleaner to delete the sense launcher and I'm using Nova.
I was looking through the system files and noticed that most of the sense widgets are still there, i.e. calculator, tasks widget.
My question is, am I able to somehow make those available on the Nova Launcher.
I know there is a thread in the mods section where someone made a .zip file that has some of the widgets but not the ones I want so I wanna try it myself. I was able to take some apks and move them to system/app and they work pretty good so far so I thought it shouldn't be too hard.

Is there any way with Launcher Pro or ADW to get the stock clock from 2.1 that has the location and date on it? The one I like is the one that turns from black to white for night and day and has the date in the middle and location on the bottom.
I know, it's silly, but I've gotten used to the clocks that come with the Slide and I want to use them on my Launchers.
Thanks!
I am interested in the stock clock as well, but only to get the stop watch and count down clock back (I know their are downloadable ones too). I thought I remember someone posting the apks for the stock clock a while back...
I mean, I really like LauncherPro and ADW but I've gotten SO used to that clock and if it's sitting in the stock ROM I don't get why I can't get to it via the launchers? I thought there would be a clear way to do this or that I'd at least have the same options of apps and widgets as I did on the Stock OS.
Are you using a custom ROM? If so, those ROMs ultimately control what comes on the phone.
No, I'm just using the stock ROM. I haven't done anything to my phone. I simply don't see the same set of widgets as on the stock OS.
I guess it's my lack of knowledge then as to what the add-on launchers do to your phone...
No, I don't think it's you, I just think something coded into their software impedes access to Stock Widgets on MyTouch Slides.
Not sure if what you guys are talking about is the fact that HTC sense widgets can only be used with the sense launcher. That would be why if you install a alternate launcher all of the sense widgets such as the clocks are not there. There are some sense knockoff clocks and widgets on the market that can be used with other launchers. It is kinda like you cant use live wallpapers with sense launcher but if you install a alternate you can.
I think you just solved my problem. That makes perfect sense.
No I just gotta find a knock off of that day-night one with the date embedded into it.
Thanks
I downloaded the Sense weather/clock widget, it came in a rar and it contained an .apk file and a .odex file. The apk won't install (I didn't expect it to)
Is there a way to install the HTC clock on a non-sense ROM? There are things I like about sense, but stock froyo is just better for me. I attached the rar with the files in it.
Also, would someone mind explaining briefly what odexing is? I did some reading but there was too much technical jargon for me to understand what it essentially is.
Thanks
P.S. I don't want to download a widget from the market that is similar, there is no fun in that and few have a weather/clock combo
As far as I know, the Sense clock depends on some proprietary code in the framework. There are apps like Fancy Widget and Beautiful widgets that mimic the flipclock, but you'll need a Sense rom to be able to use the other clock styles and see the animations.
Right now, I'm running CM 6 and I had launcher pro plus, loved the widgets but i found it was using up quite a bit of my battery. I'm trying to switch back to ADW launcher but I cant find anything close to the widgets that Launcher pro offered(i.e. bookmarks, messaging scroll widget). I've looked at beautiful widgets, pure messenger, and some other ones but can't quite find anything like it.
Is there a way to get sense widgets on cm6 other than launcherpro? Even the clock widget that has alarm+timer+stopwatch when you click it(i have weather widgets so it looks identical). And also the bookmarks4x4 and messaging scrollable widgets.
No you can not get sense widgets unless you are running a 1.5 ROM or Sense its self because the apps need to be ported along with the corresponding framework, which was done on some 1.5 ROM[look it up]. If you really want them search for a stable sense ROM idk if 32A has any but i know 32b does have a stable one by Xillius . Use Launcher Pro or Pro Plus and find a battery optimization apk as-well..
If you want sense... use a senseui rom. Simple as that.

Hi,
Is there an app which allows you to migrate screen icons from one launcher to another ?
E.g. Currently I have go launcher where I have places icons and widgets in 7 screens, if I want to try apex , adw or any other launcher then I have to re create everything from scratch which is quite painful. Specially if you want to try ICS roms, go launcher is quite boring. I would love to try other launchers but it required a lot of manual effort to migrate.

Screen shots may be your only answer - but I would suggest that go launcher is a very good launcher and you may just be wasting you own time looking at others, just to revert back to what you have already,
Back up go launcher settings if you do go looking

migrating of screens from other launcher is the feature of the launcher itself.. i don't think there is any specific app for this.. I could be wrong though but apex launcher certainly doesn't support migration.. go launcher supports I think but that you are already using..
just install a new one without deleting the existing one and keep the one you like best
Hello!
I noticed, that in apex launcher i don't have some widgets that i do have in stock tuchwiz. For example the weather widget or s planer widget. I got really used to apex but I would like to use that widgets to. Is there any fix to this problem?
Btw, I'm using latest alliance rom (LSA leak).
Thanks
I was searching for a solution to this as well. This is a known issue currently without a fix.
The stock widgets comes from the Touch Wiz UI, therefore you can't find it in other UI. It is not totally impossible to make it available in other UI, but most users wanted to use another UI because it has better widgets and mods, so it is unlikely that you will find stock widgets in other UI. I personally prefer the SPlanner widget, so I am still staying on TW.
I hope this clears things up. If you find this helpful, please press thank button. :fingers-crossed:
