I use Widget Locker. however, as with the GO Launcher widget issues when you reboot the NT, Widget Locker's widgets get a bit messed up. Would putting the app in system/apps solve the issue?
How the hell did you pur widgets on WL!!?? Every time i try if Force close, the only widget i have is the one with date and time (the default one).

This is a good question. Same issue here.

I want to change my messaging and contacts icons on the touchwiz launcher but can't figure out how. The only option it gives me is to replace them with another app. I can make new icons to place on my screens but not on the tw row.

You need Launcher Pro or some other home screen alternative to change those.
I have been using Launcher Pro for a while now and wanted a change for a while. Thanks though.
Which do you use? I can't find one that will let me back it up so I don't have to redo it every time I flash a different ROM.
I like the TW contact widget, and tried to get it from a thread in the Themes and Apps section. Downloaded and went to install .apk and got "Application not installed". Know of anything similar?
Which methods do you all use for accessing your most frequent contacts in a one-click type way?
The People widget in LauncherPro Plus. Its awesome, and people theme it all the time, along with the other Widgets that come with LPP.
You can't install a system apk the normal way. You gotta push it to the system/app and then set the right permissions for it.

I totally agree. All of the LPP widgets are cool, in my opinion. Then I also love how you can totally customize them, as shown in this thread... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=783427. Makes my homescreen very nice and consistent.
if you use a launcher (not lpp) that supports scrollable widgets, check out colorize widgets in the market..or signals modded colorize widgets in android development: themes/apps
Here is a link to the TW launcher and widgets:

Thats what I did, I prefer TW actually. I know it sounds crazy.
I'm using widget locker with honeycomb theme and was wondering if there is a way to replace the stock lock screen with this one due to a few force closes making it revert to stock lock screen.

I used MagiLocker for a little while, but it seemed a little laggy to me.

I use WidgetLocket too with the ICS theme, and haven't had it force close once. It has worked perfectly for me so far. Maybe trying reinstalling it? Are you rooted or running mostly stock?
I'n rooted running adw ex with the snowball mod. I was wantint to replae stock lockscreen and not just have an overlay. Just seems like it would run better.

I find that with both widget locker and go launcher, that even if I have links to the apps copied to the system/app folder, my clock widget (fancy widget) loses the skin definition and needs to be reapplied.
Otherwise, things work fine.
Do you think putting a link to fancy widget in system/app would fix the clock skin issue?
Don't know if this would work but on my phone I use NoLock to disable the stock and Go Locker as a replacement. Might be worth a try.
There is a setting in the widget locker settings to disable stock lock screen. Can't remember where it is right now in the settings tho.
As far as the widgets disappearing after reboot, I have the same issue and haven't found a way to fix it yet.

If you want them not to lose configuration you have to move them from datt/app
to system/app and there you should give them full permissions. That has solved my problem with widgets in Go launcher
Is any one else having the problem where every time you go back to the home screen the default weather/clock widget redraws every single time?
If so, how did you fix it?

I have tried numerous clock and/or weather widgets and they are not keeping the time synced. Usually it freezes after my phone has experienced a couple hours of inactivity. The only one that works is the stock HTC widget but as its known, it's hideous and I prefer something transparent. I'm not rooted or modded in any way and am just wondering if there is a fix for this.

have you tried Fancy widgets or Beautiful widgets?
