Hey guys, is there a way to sync the format/placing of things from the initial Launcher to an alternative launcher (Apex Launcher)? It would save me so much time instead of trying to recustomize and re-add and replace everything. Thanks in advance.

I installed pure grid calender and had it all set up with appointments for weeks and weeks and now its gone. Its seems that my launcher is also different. I have no clue what happened. Now when I click the N twice it doesn't pop up with home catcher any more. I figured that some way some how it switched to a different launcher that doesn't have my calender on it.
How do switch my launcher if home catcher is not working?
How do I find my calender with all my dates on it?
Any help would be great as I am completely f'ed with out that calender.
Thanks
Using hidden settings app go to application settings > manage applications > all , then find the launcher it has set by default select it then press clear defaults button, if you dont know which launcher is ( you should know what you have installed) then just scroll down the list and look for the apps that have the word launcher in it.

I only have one launcher installed... None the less I was able to fix my issue. My calender widget had gotten removed. Thankfully all my dates were saved in the "calender" and when I put pure grid widget back and loaded the default calender my dates re appeared and I just had to go back through the settings.
It seems there is a new issues every other day with this NT.

You should try to move it to /system/app folder if its not there already is better for widgets

I want to use a more customizable launcher, but really like the s planner widget. Is it possible to get this working with another launcher, or is it kind of 'built in' to touch wiz?
You don't get the option to add the widget on any launchers I've tried and can't find a better, or as good as 3rd party calender.
Thanks

Yes I too like the S Planner widget especially the tasks widget however I'm using Apex launcher.
Anyone found out yet how to port this?
Or.... is there a way to make Touch wiz launcher 5x4 in portrait?
Thanks heaps
Hey guys I'm new to the galaxy :silly: I have an s2 i9100 and touchwiz for me ranks as one of the worst UIs I have ever used (motoblur is my top hate).
but the two things I really liked was the S Planner app and widget, I even copied the 3 related apks from the phone before I switched to miui. now I wish I new a way to get them working but I wouldn't be very good at it and I probably would stuff it up some how.
I've been trying to get pure calendar widgets to work in the same way as the s planner widget (the widget is all I want).
I'll upload the 3 apks if anyone is interested but with all my research the sad fact is no touchwiz no S Planner widget :crying:
by the way if anyone out there knows how to get just a basic month view setup with the pure calendar widget can you please help me?
I don't want
scrolly nonsense
current day/week at top
timeline view confabulary
100000000 widget sizes
I just want
show current month with tap to view next previous month
show upcoming events from my synced calendars (google)
tap on day to view that days events.
thanks for your time.
Hi everyone
I recently changed to touchwiz ux launcher, coming from launcherpro. I was wondering if there was any widget like the go calendar widget, meaning a scrollable month overview, a little mark on the days with an appointment, and possibility to click on the days to make/view an appointment then. Thanks in advance
I would suggest you take a look at Jorte Calender:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.johospace.jorte
thanks, yeah i saw that but haven't really tried, but if i'm right that's a whole calendar app, so can this widget show the appointments of the stock app? or maybe if i sync with google in both apps... if anyone knows advice is still welcome, but i'll give that a try soon
just for the record, i've just found android pro widgets, it's calendar widget does exactly what i want, if anyone else has the same problem: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rdr.widgets.core

You can sync it with google to show the same appointments as the stock app. But android pro widgets is a good hint, looks promising. Maybe i can use it for myself.
thank you for this!! finally a go calendar like widget (better actually) that works at higher DPI resolutions !! (SIII at 240dpi)
I like the Go Calendar features, anything similar but in a "universal" widget? I don't want to be locked into 1 launcher.
I want to switch to Apex but Go Calendar is currently what keeping me in Go.... but the Go Launcher is too clunky now and annoying.

#5 in Jokesy's recommendations (Android Pro Widgets) is much better than Go Calander.
I used the APW to replace all my Go widgets even when I was using Go Launcher.
Although the APW License Key costs £1.59, it's well worth it for the theme and transparency support alone.
Awesome, APW is exactly what i was looking for!
Does anyone have a transparent calendar widget for the Google Calendar? I spent yesterday evening looking for one, and I did find Simple Calendar - I've become familiar with the Simple line of products - but I just couldn't get it to interface with my Google Calendar.
I'm hoping that someone can help me with a transparent widget that they might've made or come into as I'm looking to get rid of the calendar icon and use a widget. However the Google Calendar widget is just hideous and garish if you're really into theming your device.
OR, if you can possibly walk me through the steps of interfacing the Simple Calendar with the Google Calendar? I'm really just looking to import/export everything so that it's saved to my Google account in case of loss of device or factory reset. I've had phones that this wasn't the case and I'd lose everything, recently had the loss of a Moto G4 and had to replace it on the fly with the Moto G5. I simply signed in and the calendar was just there because it was saved at mother Google and not on the device itself. If I could get the interface problem licked I'd be just fine with Simple...

Use chronus or any numerous calendar apps on play store with customizable widgets. Or try team blackout's clear google calendar here on xda. Or use a substratum theme.

Did you ever find the transparent Google calendar? I'm searching for it and can't find it on XDA. Can someone drop a link?

Search team blackout apps. Only Google Calendar available i know that is black or clear. It is an older version but should still work. If not you would need substratum to to theme it.

I just published the following high customizable agenda widget
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gr.ictpro.jsalatas.agendawidget
Hope you find it useful
@jsalatas:
Thank you very much! Your widget is just what I was looking for!
P.S.: How often does the widget update itself? I have noticed that it does do it automatically, but do not know if it is somehow push based or a set intervall
