Working beautifully with adw ex now,
No luck with Sweeter Home so far. But it doesn't crash anymore like it previously did. I was able to log into facebook, but it does not load any posts
EDIT: Oh well, I just tested it with ADW and it is exactly what I want for my homescreen... Too bad it does not work with Sweeter Home yet

That's the icon on the right little bar on the home page. I also added some Widgets like picture frames but now can't get them to delete.
Switch to another launcher, like Launcher Pro. This will allow you to customize the home screen and dock with whatever icons you like. If you upgrade to the paid version you can resize the widgets as well.
With the Widgets I wish I knew how to delete them. They don't seem to call up the trashcan when you grab them.
Not too sure about that, I didn't use the stock android launcher for long enough to try that. Like I said, I recommend Launcher Pro. You can also try ADW or Zeam. Although Zeam is not longer being worked on.
x2 on Launcher Pro. The only reason why I don't add that by default is that I think it should be the user's option. Some like LP, some like ADW. So, I add a stock Goggle Launcher just you have a basic Launcher until you replace it.
I am trying to get away from sense for obvious reasons. I'm only missing the friendstream, news, twitter scrollable widgets. Shopping revealed Pure Messenger/News widget as a viable option. Although to be useful to me it needs to be scrollable.
-Running CM7 nightlies #130
-ADW Launcher stock with CM7
-Verizon Droid Incredible 2
-Rooted, obviously.
Pure Messenger states that ADW is supported, but scrollable widgets must be enabled and it isn't currently. I find no setting for scrollable widget enable and the documentation for this version (latest) doesn't list it. However a previous version had a setting from what I find online. Maybe the non CM7 version?
Anyone have a solution for pure messenger or alternative app? I'm certain many people running CM7 desire these widgets so there must be a solution but a search didn't reveal anything within 6 months.
Note: I was having this same issue with other phones, and other launchers [read: go launcher, launcher pro], so this should apply to everyone. Including me when I buy the Galaxy Nexus upon release.

I love colorize widgets and android pro widgets (both very similar and have a nice timeline feature with the paid versions) adw does support scrolling widgets but I'm not sure if you need the ex version for that(that's the version I have) I also don't see a setting for it but both my colorize widgets and android pro widgets scroll automatically

I gave up on the Pure Widgets and went with Colorize. Scrolling works fine and I got the paid version and it looks really nice.
I thought the Pure Widgets were the most popular which would lead to less bugs and better support but obviously not.
Now the only problem is Colorize doesn't have a RSS feed selector or news widget like sense but I think I can get around it with customizing Google RSS feeds.
Thanks for the reply.

Ok, somebody should explain the need for scrollable widgets, or indeed most widgets, to me.
You swipe homescreens to get to the one you want, e.g Calender, Twitter.. and then you scroll it to find what you want etc...
Why not just open the Twitter or Calender app instead?
This sums up my pet peave with Android really. So much bloat. So much unnecessary carp. Why do one thing well when you can do it three different ways, badly.
I'm still not sold on the idea of multiple homescreens, in fact i'm as perplexed by the notion now as i was three years ago. Android has an app drawer. It has shortcuts for every app within. Open app drawer, select shortcut, use app! Why would i need shortcuts all over my homescreen?
And while i'm busy derailing the thread with my rant, what's with the honking great clocks and weather on the homescreens? There's a clock in the status bar and the weather is right outside. Use a window!
Obviously i'm in the minority here so i'll just crawl quietly back into my minimalistic hole. Good to get it off the chest though!
I have used Call Log Widget Scrollable (CLWS) for a long time, and really like it, but it requires ADW or LP. I flashed Shostock2 v.3.0.5 a few days ago and I switched from LP+ to Apex, because the LP was beginning to act odd (orange flash around edge of screen). CLWS will not work with Apex, which I find to be a very, very smooth and customizable launcher. I have searched, but cannot find a >scrollable< call log widget that will run on Apex (which does support scrollable widgets - I assume as part of the ICS API). Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
Ok so the s planner widget is great, but it doesnt work on Nova launcher, what apps could make a good replacement for it for non tw launchers?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Even with the stock launcher I prefer the Pure Grid Calendar widget. Very customizable, themable, but mostly I like when you touch a day, it shows the appointments as a list rather than the timetable. So everything is visible immediately rather than scrolling down to later in the day.
Hey Guys,
I've got a Nexus 7 (2013) WiFi version which has been rooted and had Timurs kernel installed.
I've installed Nova Launcher and UCCW. I've used UCCW to create a widget but each time I select the UCCW widget and try and drop it on the launcher screen the whole tablet crashes and reboots, I've forced stop and cleared data on both the launchers and its still not working.
If I use a system widget or other widget like 1weather etc then its fine but any of the UCCW widgets fails
Can anyone help me please?
I have a workaround suggestion. Try Total Launcher. It is like the launcher version of UCCW, allowing the building of themes similarly to UCCW but with full launcher functionality. You could very easily recreate your current Nova theme and UCCW widget all in one app.
Sorry I can't tell you how to fix things to use Nova and uccw, but, hopefully this suggestion can get you by until you do get it solved. And who knows, maybe you'll like TL enough to keep using it (I certainly haven't found anything to even compete with it yet).
