Stock Widgets

I have searched the posts for the stock desktop widgets- specifically the ap-news/accuweather widget but I have not found it. Someone took the time to zip up the Samsung signed Widgets but after installing in recovery mode they don't appear (may not even be included. Does anyone know of the marketplace app name or where I can find the stock widget?
Thanks!

you do know you require the TouchWiz to use the Samsung Widgets, Correct?

No - don't even know really what TouchWiz is. I realize now what it is. Between that post and today though I had to revert back to the stock ROM. My Exchange account kept "disappearing".
So...I now have the stock widgets!
BTW - there are some things I really liked in the Axura ROM - the "all applications" section (cube like scrolling) - is that something that is usually baked into the ROM or is that modifiable/replaceable in any ROM?

the Stock Launcher and Launcher pro both offer that 3d app drawer, but you will lose the stock widgets.

[Q] Anyone know of a LP style friends widget?

I love this widget in LP, but I've kind of grown attached to Zeam recently. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a similar app that will do what the friend widget does.

There is a widget in the pure series, I think it's called Pure Messenger, but it is a paid app.

Colorize widget is about the closest that you'll get to lp style widgets, but there's no friends widget in it, just facebook/twitter/contacts and some others.

Both good suggestions. Thanks. Trying out Colorized now. I'm going to look some more into Pure as well.

colorized is almost exactly the same as the lp widgets with the exception of the "friends" one missing. And, the agenda(calendar) on the newest version works like a charm for me.

sorry bad post....

Try "photo contacts widget", its almost exactly the same as LP contacts.

alternative to launcherpro/sense calendar widge

hi guys
i used to use launcherpro, but since the stock launcher on superaosp is amazing enough, i stopped using it
however the one thing i missed is the sense style calendar...
anyone got any alternatives?
i tried jorte and business calendar... both need to enter the program to edit the event which ... prefer it to launch into google calendar..
i also miss the simple switch between agenda and calendar....
anyone got any suggestions?
Thanks

Android agenda widget is a good one

Colorize widget is exactly what you are looking for. The free version is just like Sense. The paid version gives you some pretty cool theme support, but that is totally up to you.
Colorize Widget
Edit - Wait, I forgot that colorize only works on launchers with scroll widget support. Will not work on stock launcher.

Pure Calendar Grid is super awesome

I really like the widgets for an app called Business Calendar. It has all the functions of the original calendar but a bigger selection of widgets.

Colourize widget looks good but yeah no scrollable support.
What a shame
Prefer not to pay for a widget
I had use business calendar
I NP have niggling complaint that the transition from widget to calendar us not as smooth. I.e. you have to go into the calendar then add new event and so on. Whereas launcherpro one you gets straight to adding new event...
I'm just nit picking

no scroll
Stock GB launcher doesn't have widget scrolling. ADW or LPP allow for that. Unless of course the app includes arrows you can tap to scroll up or down

Pure Calendar (not Grid). Supports color schemes and scrolling.

[Q] Finally have ICS. How do I make this look like ICS?

First, I replaced the launcher. Apex Launcher is based on the stock ICS Launcher and looks great, but getting it to work with the weather and clock widgets seems to be crappy. These widgets know how to change layout based on size, and it seems like Apex is failing to notify them of the size change. Anyone know how to get those widgets to use a layout other than the long, thin stripe when using Apex?
Second, I'm wondering if I should replace the camera / gallery apps. Is there a significant advantage to the standard ICS apps? I'm hoping there's some reason Samsung gave us the old Gallery app, but anyone know what it is? Is the stock ICS gallery available to install?

I think if u just wait for a while. Some one will release a "Custom" Rom with re-design. Even though it will be stock with a layer on top of it, it will be all u need.

I'm not really interested in a custom ROM. Trying to stick with the stock roms as much as I can. That doesn't mean I won't install some better apps.

use Quickpic for gallery; significantly better than stock gallery, regardless of OS version!
As for weather widget, here's something to try:
Go to Apex Settings, Advanced settings, then uncheck "resize any widget"
see if the switch to conventional ICS resizing will change the Accuweather widget behaviour...
No guarantee but give it a go!

Yep should have added "watch this thread" to follow for ICS note version when done as ICS only out this week and no one will have it themed yet.
Personally I had a S2 and tried most themes and allways went back to stock plus a ICS look launcher, follow the S2 themes and you will see all themes don't get things right 100% grey txt on black background and then there was CM 9 etc with custom apps themed and you loose some of the original functionality.
Or follow checkrom.com for a ICS vers coming shortly???

DashClock on the One?

Hey everyone, i was just wondering if there is something on the hardware side of the One that doesnt allow me to install DashClock. I tried downloading it from the Play Store but it says my device is incompatible? Is it hardware, or is it because i have an international version.

I'm running Android Revolution HD, which is basically HTC's stock 4.2.2, with Sense of course, and I'm having the same issue. I honestly think it's the Sense lockscreen that's the problem. In order to install Dashclock, you have to add it as a widget to one of your lockscreens. The problem is Sense only gives you the main lockscreen, no widgets, scrolling, etc.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm trying to get DashClock running on Sense roms now that we have 4.2.2 available on them. Tried it on an AOSP ROM (Slim Bean) and was very impressed.
Right now, TrickDroid 7.0.0 has android 4.2.2 and comes with an AOSP lockscreen option, but that lockscreen does not support widgets. While you cannot get DashClock from the Play Store, you can install Dashclock via APK and it works (in a reduced capacity) on the home screen.
As for getting DashClock on the lockscreen, right now I'm using WidgetLocker Lockscreen (paid app), but it's running in a reduced capacity there too. Looking into changing the lock screen to one that fully works, don't know how deep this rabbit hole goes, but I am a developer (not for Android, though .. yet) so I'll see what I can come up with.

If you want to play with it too, here is the APK.

I heard that if you rename htclockscreen.apk to something else, and you use apex or nova launcher, you will have stock android lockscreen, with all widgets you want

In TrickDroid 7.0.0 at least, you get the stock android lockscreen, but without any widget functionality. I'm thinking this could be related to settings in android.policy.jar

Nope. Just an empty lock screen

Yes i've installed the same Rom and have been trying to look for a solution to the problem :S

I'm on OrDroid 7.3.2 - 4.2.2 and I can use DashClock widget without problem with all extensions as you can see with this screenshot.
Classic install => download from Google Play and installed correctly
I don't use some other launcher, just stock launcher
I use DashClock on my N7 3G too

Go Settings > Personalize > Lockscreen > (scroll to end) Widgets (Settings -> Choose DashClock) > Apply.

I've been trying to get the DashClock to work on my phone, but I can't find the Widget in the lockscreen options. I am using SentinelROM and running 4.2.2

Got it working on the htc one ... but now have two clocks on the lockscreen .... any ideas on how to get rid of one ?

Same Issue
I'm running Android Revolution 12.2 on HTC One and I'm also getting the two clocks issue. I used Personalize->Lockscreen->Widgets->Dashclock to set it up, but cannot remove the original lock screen clock. I switched the dashclock time for a small analog clock and it looks better but that huge clock at the bottom takes up too much space. Any ideas?

I'll just leave this here.
