Which ROM does "Beautiful Widgets" Work Best With?

Hi all,
I'm interested in using Beautiful Widgets with any ROM in order to create a HTC-like sense in Launcher2. Only thing is, I can't find a ROM that supports it very well. Is anyone using a certain ROM with Beautiful Widgets successfully?
Thanks in advance!

Ok but that's not a "beautiful widget"....that's an HTC widget ....if I am thinking of the same one

No, its a beautiful widget. I know what you're talking about, its worked with every ROM i've used but I prefer the HTC widgets in all honesty. Why are you using BW anyway out of curiosity.

I want to simulate what HTC widgets might look like in Launcher2

The HTC-like widgets were removed sometime around version ~2.3-2.4 due to a cease and desist order from HTC.
Older versions will still have them.

Mi locker (MIUI rom has an app for its lockscreen)

If you are using android 2.3 you should download this app that allows to customise your rom lockscreen.
Have you even wanted to have MIUI lockscreen? So, go to this web page and download MiLocker.
Thanks me

When you select a lock theme there is an option below to include the wallpaper or not. You can unselect it if you want your default homescreen wallpaper.

Also note thats its only hdpi. Can someone port it to mdpi? I wonder why miui make it to hdpi devices knowing most hdpi device can use miui not with mdpi devices.

That's way cool. I can't thank you enough for this. Been missing these ever since I moved to CM7 (damn MIUI kept corrupting my sd during restarts)

Does it support widgets and apps on lockscreen?

Some themes work on my mdpi phone- the very first one and the wp7 default ones work... trying to find others now.

I can't seem to get any of the themes from the MIUI lockscreen thread on here to work, just goes to homescreen with a notification bar which doesn't work.
Anyone else had better luck?

Not much working mdpi themes
Too bad

Wow perfect, MIUI just wasn't working on my DI2 so I had to go back to CM7 but I miss the lock screens. I got widget locker but it's just not the same.

No weather, no city.. What can be wrong?

I have an att s4 with GoldenEye 9.0.3 ROM and everything works fine except for the weather. In the clock faces screen of gear manager, I select the face with the weather. On the watch, it says no weather info. When I go to my apps on gm, I click on weather settings and it says error occurred. Anyone else has this problem? Thanks!

I intially had this problem as well, in order to make the weather watch face function corretly, you MUST have the touchwiz weather widget running on your device.

Galaxy Gear error
I am also running the GoldenEye rom but version 12 with the Samsung Crap Pack and cannot get the weather or S voice to work with the watch. GE12 is running 4.3 too. Can anyone else shed some light on this issue?

GoldenEye is what's wrong guys. I had the same problem. All of those features work fine with Echoe Rom v7. I know GE is great but if you want those features. Switch.

It doesn't need to be running, just set. The lock screen weather widget can also be used to set the update frequency and location Accuweather uses. If you look, the last update time on the Gear is always the last update time of either widget on the phone.

Thanks for the heads up. All running great on 20a (7.0).

Do these live wallpapers drain much battery ??

Oreo icon frames

My note 8 just upgraded to Oreo and now all my Google apps have icon frames and they won't go away is there a way to change this? I have Nova launcher too.

i hope samsung update the software cause getting crazy about those ugly borders around the icons

Nope its an android thing implimentation and not Samsungs fault, its called Adaptive Icons.. soon all apps will implement this, were on minsdk version v26 now thats why. So...

Is there a work around

The theme I'm using from the Samsung store does change the Google Apps icons.

Use another launcher
