Is there a way to keep default launcher widgets accessible after installing, for example, ADW.Launcher Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately, if it's anything like Sense, then the stock Motorola widgets are only accessible when using the stock Motorola launcher. Basically, they are integrated into the Launcher and it's not possible to run them on a third-party solution.

uh when I load up ADW and long press the homescreen I only have ADW widget. For example, I want to use the Favorites Contacts , the one that when you swipe down on it, it reveals a 20 block screen of your contacts. Can you check for that widget please to see if you can add it as im not from ADW.
is it possible to add sony ericsson default music player widget with adw launcher by using rom manager or by using the root method..i tried installing the music player widget but wont show up when i tried to add the widget in adw launcher..is there any solution at all ?

Favorite Contacts is only available with the stock launcher, I believe.
Almost all of the stock widgets do work with third party launchers. Interestingly, they look like they did in earlier versions of Blur, without the 'chrome' of the Gingerbread BlurHome (the dark blue with gaudy glow animation).
The exception is the favourite contacts widget, which 'works' in the sense that you can place the widget on a screen, but it's invisible.
Genuine question here - aside from the scrolling email widgets and the favourite contacts widget (which is bloated) the Blur widgets are the worst I have ever used on any variety of Android. Half of them don't even launch anything when tapped. Sense, Touchwiz, Timescape/Mediascape, every OEM skin with its own widget set has been more functional than this, even if it's not my cup of tea.
What gives with MotoBlur, and what do people see in it? I swear Moto know it's awful, why else would they automatically set the first third party launcher you install as default?

I use Go launcher and when I place the favorites widget on the homescreen nothing appears. After which I can then click/hold that same blank space and the options appear to modify or delete it. I've not seen anyway to place any stock widgets while using another launcher.

And what other launchers does it work in, pray tell?

It is available. The fact that those launchers are unable to handle it is another thing. Same way the stock launher does not work with 52.
Hello,
on my dads phone the widgets have disappeared behind the Apps in Appdrawer. He is on Stock 4.0.4
I don't know what he has done.
Can you help? Where have the widgets gone in the list?
There are hust 4 Pages with apps.
Thank you!
You can't have widgets in the app draw.
AW: Widgets have disappeared in Appdrawer
On my other phone they are listed behind the apps. See the widgets-tab:
Is this different on S2?
Thanks,
Problem solved.
Widget are added directly on Homescreen.

Yes, that's the way it is with Touchwiz. You seem to have another launcher. But I see you have already figured that out yourself

Hello,
I am using NOVA launcher on my Galaxy S-5. I have just two home screens set in the app. I see this vertical bar with 4 sections on far right when I am on the 2nd page of the home screen. I see the same bar on left hand side of the screen when I am on the 1st page of home screen.Any ideas how can I remove this?
Thanks in advance...
Not sure that's a Nova thing... Been using Nova for a couple years and have never seen it do that with any amount of screens. I've played with about every setting under the hood and can't think of one that would do that. It's not the wallpaper or a app sidebar launcher?
Thanks for your reply!
Actually, I figured it out. As soon as I changed the wallpaper to something else from the NOVA setttings, it disappeared! So I am guessing its some kind of themed wallpaper that comes with Nova launcher which tells you when you are at first or last page of the home screen.

Thanks

You can drag an app from the app folder onto a folder on your home screen. I didn't know that there was a limit to how many you could put. If you put more than 9, it will enable a scrollbar.

not with stock launcher...Nova launcher works great and I can get the standard Lollipop icons. Also, just FYI, the edge favorites still work. It is an overlay and not part of the launcher itself.
...Nova launcher is your best bet its in my opinon the best launcher out there
So since themer seems to be dead (no updates and the app doesnt load themes etc.) what would be the best alternative launcher? And i'm not talking about nova launcher or something like that because nova launcher doesnt change the homescreen the way themer does. The one alternative i found is Buzz Launcher but are there any others?
I had the same question and have not been able to find an alternative.
The problem is that we can no longer load the themes.
Is there a way to download them ourselves and manually install in Themer?

It used to be possible. But you had to download them off the site. But the site itself is quite broken, and google says it may have been hacked.
You could use some other sites to get the direct download link. E.g. I got this Mosaic theme from Lifehacker. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/94231qd5cs8hmiv/AACtRG8aIoO0AC85PfzTBpqda?dl=0

Buzz launcher was similar to themer. Have not tried it in a very long time though. Have no clue how it has changed since.
Just saw it , themer is no longer being updated, mycolorscreen is offline. I can recreate all the themes in total/lightning launcher but I need screenshots. Anyone has screenshots?

You could really do this?
The theme I am still using and love is `Tree2`. A screenshot from google image search is at:
http://mycolorscreen.com/wp-content/uploads/homescreens_2012/312318/App Tree2New_original.jpg
(No idea how as the rest of the site is down)
You click the icons in the tree to open them, but some give the option of opening multiple things, like the people icon. The charging bar was kinda cool too.
Look forward to seeing how you go 8)
Cheers

I use klwp from play store is amazing i left buzz and themer long time ago didn't seem very useful to me anymore
KLWP when used alongside NOVA Launcher Prime is an excellent choice both for designers & enthusiasts. You can customize and build your own home screen with animations and actions triggered by click, slide, or any other action possible on an android.
I would definitely suggest KLWP as the best and only alternative.
Have no clue how it has changed since.
Does anyone know how's the battery consume in KLWP? I'm thinking it may consume more battery because of being 'LIVE' Wallpaper.

The live wallpaper is active only when you're watching it. If you're using other apps, it should be fine.
