Missing widgets - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys! I'm new, and my English isn't very good, than sorry for any mistake. I would like to understand why when I'm using a different launcher as nova or apex, some widget disappear from the list, like agenda/calendar and social hub. Any ideas? Thanks for any helps

Hello and welcome to XDA. U asked at wrong section mate but here it is anyway:
Some Samsung-specific widgets are only there when you are using Samsungs stock launcher.
E.G. they are made to work on TouchWiz only.

They are touchwiz launcher (default launcher) widgets. They are made by Samsung, so they only work with their launcher.

Thank you both and apologise for the wrong section... Than there's no way to use them with different launcher? And I can just download different widget?

yep, the only way to do it. they need TWiz framework to work so...

Official Weather Widget - compatibility with other Launchers

I love official weather widget from my Xperia P, but I noticed that it can't be used with other Launcher.
There is a way to use default weather widget in another Launcher like Apex, Nova, etc ?
Thanks for answers

CM10 Themes and Boot Animations

Well, the forum for our dear TF300 is kind of empty when we are talking about themes for CM10 and cool boot animations... So I decided to create this topic for all of you to share the themes and animations you use and share it to the others, to help me and others to find something cool to put on the tab.
Thank you

A nexus boot animation would be awesome!

Go Launcher Ex doubts

Hi
I use go launcher ex i really like the effects but now i update to Jelly Bean 4.1.2 and i want to use the normal icons, is possible to only use go launcher effects? I did not find any similar theme
Enviado desde mi GT-I9100 usando Tapatalk
Not sure what you're going at but i dont think you can use Go launcher effects on Twlauncher
Are you talking about the themes or the transition animations? Go launcher has a huge number of themes, more so than any other, I believe. So getting a similar theme on another launcher may be difficult (not impossible)
If you mean animations, that's available on almost every launcher now. Try apex, nova launchers and see if they suit you. If not revert to go launcher. No harm done :thumbup:

Nova launcher sooo much better
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
For customization, go launcher pretty much beats anything out there....but....it is probably the most resource hungry launcher available. I used to use it on my old phone (galaxy W) and the amount of lag it caused was almost painful. Then i flashed a cusRom to it and started using trebuchet....much faster and smoother, but virtually no customization possible. I'm now using Apex...sort of half way between the 2 previous launchers....*some* customization and *virtually* no lag....Nova is at a similar level with Apex......

Everyone has their own opinion on launchers. Try them, find one that you like and will be happy with.
I myself use GO EX also (I froze TW). I'm happy with this one.

I like Ex because the transition effects and the pattern shortcut (double tap screen) i just want to use this features with the stock icons, i dont want to use any theme or skin from Ex, just functions

There are apps that allow for gesture control. Search the play store. As for transition effects, apex and nova have a few. Not as many as Go does, but c'est la vie. You can't have it all. Else if you can live with the (negligible) lag, stick with Go and find a way to skin it to look like the stock launcher.

[Q] Touchwiz with Icon Changer?

Haven't anyone a idea?

Look in themes and apps section.. There are themes available for touch wiz launcher but they are flashable zips and flashed in recovery..
Don't think there are any icon packs which can be changed on the fly..
There is perfect theme, kalagas theme(not on xda Google it), blue ginger theme... For 4.3 android as far as I know...
There is a blue theme, kitkat style theme but they are more of aosp style...

Mate 10 on alternative launchers

Hi, I am really, really interested in this phone. However, I am somewhat put off by the non standard software. Has anyone changed the launcher to a more standard one? Is operation compromised on anyway if you use Google Now launcher for example?
That was the first thing I did. But I use Nova or Erie. Works great!
For reviewing purposes i always use the standard software/launcher the first week. I'm still not a fan, altho it's getting better every phone they make.
Using Nova for a few days now and works flawlessly.
But any launcher that is android 8.0 oreo compatible, will work (so almost all launcher)
I used Apex launcher and it is great with lots of very nice features

I installed Nova, but the flashlight (Torch) is not working no more. Do you have the same problem?

Yes I have the same problem with Nova Launcher. I get a "Permission Denied" message when I try to open the Torch app and also get a "App not installed" when I try to add the Screen Lock widget to the homescreen.
I'm on BLA-L29 8.0.0.119 (C636)
I use TSF Shell 3d.... It is really good with tons of unique features...
I love Evie, very light, very responsive and enough features.
I'm using nova too and yes it's a bit buggy at the moment. I've the issue with the torch app, but it seems that it works ok from the notification center.
About other stuff:
I hate the fact that there is no animation when you push on the Google search bar. I had to remove it from the home because any time i clicked on it i felt like i was going to puke. Furthermore, if you want to enable the google feed page, you have to download the google companion apk from the web.
All in all it works, but I'm a bit worried that the switch from the standard launcher can block out some of the huawei AI features.
huawei's launcher is not bad at all. It is really smooth, and of course being it tailored on the device in the first place, it's totally bug free and it's the one that best matches the rest of the system. The problem is that it doesn't allow you to customize much stuff. For example applying play store icon packs it's a total mess, and the default icons are totally, completely, absolutely ****. You can just try to sort out something from the huawei theme app, but at the moment the themes sold there are not even worth a download. I switched to android because i wanted to try the "customize" experience and if I'm not having it, i get nervous.

Because I don't like stock launcher cause it tries to mimic iOS I use Nova with no crashes or anything else, you can use also pixel launcher with custom icons applied with Huawei themes from playstore.

You can change this and switch to app drawer mode for the same stock launcher
Yeah I know but the look of the icons is the same iOS style.

You can different icon pack from theme store or emui theme factory
This is my Launcher, Evie, with Amphetamine icons pack. The only things that don't change are the Set tin and notification drop down.
