I've been looking for something for my tablet since I got it, but have so far had no luck.
I'm looking for a wiget that shows a calendar page (full month) and is it least a half-page in size on my 10" tablet. (That's 4x7 minimum - tho a 6x6 would also be good)
I know something like this has to exist somewhere, I just can't find it.
Anyone? I can't even find a 4x4......
I use launcherpro plus for my phone and you can resize the calendar widget as big as you want. Not sure if you would want to change to launcherpro because tablets are usually better on stock home launcher.
Nah, IMHO nothings better for a tab than the stock hc launcher - well, other than the stock ICS launcher
I was wondering if there was a way to add a fade transition to ADW!? That's all I would need to complete my hubs setup.
Assuming ADWLauncher EX is still actually related to ADWLauncher's code base, you could probably write a patch for the free version and send it to the guy asking to have it adjusted to the paid versions code base.
Last I looked, he didn't respond to e-mail or appear active.

Since I only recently jumped on TSF Launcher, I've found that I've already gotten used to the great looking 5x5 calendar widget that came with Touchwiz. Much to my chagrin, it's only available when using Touchwiz.
Most of the calendar widgets in the market are either list type widgets, or not sized correctly to be displayed on this giant screen.
Has anyone come across a calendar widget that they like for the Note?
Jorte Calendar has a 5x5 monthly calendar widget. It's popular although i think it's a bit on the ugly side in terms of looks...but with time I think a lot of customization is possible.
You're right about the ugliness - not even close to Samsung's widget.
Deslandes has one called PURE Grid. I use PURE Messenger a lot and the functionality is always fantastic and it looks great. The biggest issue is if you're using Exchange. It'll work fine with Google, but it can't read your Exchange calendar on a Samsung device yet.

I personally love Jorte and don't find it ugly at all with some tweaks. A big requirement for me is that the widget has to be very functional. By making the widget completely transparent and using Google calendar colors, looks sweet to me!
Also, using the month+task view, I get all the information I need at once. The widget also adjusts to landscape view effectively.

It says it works with Touchdown, so shouldn't that be fine for Exchange?
Android Pro Widgets ?

Puregrid works great I have mine set at 5 by 5xxl-tablet. I mainly use just the week view but here's both. Puregrid is very customizable and a decent selection of skins, I'm rocking the ICS skin.

try wizz, its free.
So I looked around a little and didn't find a lot about this. What the hell was ASUS thinking when they decided the sizes of their widgets. Their mail widget for starters, the one that shows the about of unread mail, graphically takes up a 2x1 space, yet in actuality, its a 3x1 widget. The same goes for their date and weather widget, they take up more room than the actually widget does. Why? It's a waste of space. Has anyone gotten their hands dirty with this enough to trim the fat off them and put up the .apk for a download? Don't get me wrong they are some of they best looking widgets I've seen on any device, but with every step forward ASUS seems to be on on this tablet, they seem to have hit a brick wall so hard that it rebounds them 10 steps back from the competition.
Another thing, Myzine or whatever they call that behemoth of a widget doesn't work at all, It can be placed but as soon as I touch it, it crashes. WTF bro?

good points. I don't even use the ASUS battery widget anymore. I use the battery widget a person came up with here. it looks and performs way better than stock. plus you have a few options on how you want it to look. its in the themes and apps section. title is like modded Asus battery widget or something.
as for myzine, I don't use it. it looks like it will drain extra battery n use up ram in the background..lol. looks cool though. I wish it was customizable.
I will definitely look into that thank you. Has anyone gotten the Asus task app to play well with ADW launcher? Mine only shows the top 3 tasks.

That killed me too because I always use the Asus time/date, email, battery, and task manager widgets. I use Nova Launcher (Prime paid version) and I accidentally found a check box in Nova settings under the "check for updates" section. By default it only checks for the newest stable version ( the version in the Play Store ) but if you check the box, there's a newer beta version you can get and man is it sweet
The 2 major differences are the " jump to page x " ( like ADW/ hubs ) and the best thing ever...you can now overlap any and every widget with another widget. On top of that, if you overlap 2 widgets you can select " bring to front" or "send to back" for each widget so you can have either one on top or bottom. Basically, you can put a widget wherever you want, no matter how many other widgets you already have:laugh:
It's one of the coolest new features I've seen in a long time, and never really thought it was possible. Nova Prime is definitely worth the couple bucks, but I'm not sure if you need the paid version to get the newer "hidden" beta version. That feature changes everything, and should help with your problem:good

2nd on nova prime pro. Overlapping widgets is pretty boss esp when it comes to stock widgets.
Apex seems pretty similar i just liked nova better. Check both out, either is better than stock >.<
Does anyone have a decent stocks or finance widget that works on Touchwiz?
I just came from HTC Evo 3D and HTC Sense's stocks widget just blows the Touchwiz widget out of the water.... I was wondering if there is one on the market that is a good replacement...
Nobody?
Come on....what is the stocks widget that everybody is using?
Can't say I've stumbled on anything great. For widgets I like the Google FInance app. It shows the stock along with its price and gain/loss for the day. As an app, I personally like Wikinvest.
But still looking for a better option as well.
Thanks, the Google Finance widget is no where close to HTC's widget.... I can't believe there is no alternatives out there.
