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

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.
I must be missing because I can't find where the option is to change them. Looked in personalize/lock screen

I think the stock sense lockscreen is trash. Check out widgetlocker on the google store. I had this installed on the old evo, and reinstalled on here. I have ~15 shortcuts on my lock screen. Most of the apps I use all the time.

I'm fine using the stock one just want to put the camera app on it, but can't find where I would change that.

This is a big maybe since I only played with it for about 2 minutes before getting widget locker installed. I believe the lock screen icons mimic the same icons present at the dock when not locked. So if you add a camera down there, it should show up in the lock screen too.

I think it automatically puts whatever apps are in the dock of the default sense launcher on the lockscreen. I am using GoLauncher, but I changed the apps in the default launcher and they now show up on the lock screen.

Thanks That was it. I don't like that, it should have an option to put what you want even if its different than the dock.

I was just having this same problem and found this thread in my search. All my shortcuts were right except for one and I could not for the life of me figure out why. No matter what I changed it would not change. Soon as I read this post I switched back to the default launcher, changed that dock shortcut, changed back to ADW launcher and Bam! Problem solved! Thanks!

So, by this reasoning...you could go to the stock launcher, put 4 things in the dock...change back to ADW and change the dock and keep the lockscreen icons?
EDIT: Yup...sweet.

Yes AS LONG AS you don't kill off Sense launcher because upon reboot since the stock launcher doesn't run, the lockscreen cannot read the icons. So you can but you'd be wasting resources by having two launchers run at the same time.
Hi all, I have a strange bug...i don't like to have lot of pages with tons of widgets and icons, so i use only one page with waether/clock widget and google search bar...when i open a dock folder, my widget disappear, and reappear only when i swype my finger on the screen...if i use 2 page this doesn't happen...any idea about what can i do...i search all over the web but seems that nobody wrote about it!!
what launcher is it?

Hey folks,
Just dropping by to see if anyone had a solution to this irritating problem I have encountered with UCCW. Basically, the list of apps that I can use for a hotspot is truncated, and missing critical apps like the phone app and the camera app. I haven't the faintest idea whether this is a problem inherent in UCCW, or if there is some kind of solution I could use to fix it... hoping someone here has some idea!!
Additionally: I am using Nova Prime as my launcher... any idea how to make the "launch app drawer" into a hotspot? (It also doesn't show up on the hotspot list.)
Thanks so much for any help you can offer!

Yeah, same issue here.
I found that you can use something like Desktop Visualizer to make a "ghost/invisible" widget to sit on top of UCCW as long as you have enabled widgets to overlap via your launcher (Nova/Apex/etc).
But yeah, no camera for me in UCCW lists, so I'll just use invisible widgets on top until UCCW fixes this.

Bump for visibility. I've got the same problem - can't remember having it before though, so maybe it's broken by a recent update?

Hey, Regarding the missing apps i never encountered this problem. But for the app drawer u just hv to choose shortcut. Then nova launcher from the list. A new list will open with all the shortcuts that nova launcher can offer appdrawer, recent apps and more. I will look for the missing app issue n get to u.
Hello,
I'm using Buzz Launcher and I'm having the same issue, I don't have the app drawer shortcut listed in the hotspot list. Anyone knows if it is possible? Thank you.

Turn ON "hotspod mode", then it wont launch the app. It will launch hotspots and/or make widget uneditable true click on homescreen. To turn it off, u have to go to app 1st then

is it just me, or has everyone else lost the ability to have the google Now widget on one of their screens?
It was working fine but now it's gone.
I tried to add it back and the widget it 4x4 and wont fit
I swear there used to be a 2x2 version but it's missing now.
what happened?

I simply resized my widget. I'm currently at 2 X 3. Using Apex shell, if that matters.

Hmmm
Well, I created a new home screen and was able to get the widget onto it, and then was able to resize it as you mentioned.
I dunno why it changed on me, but thanks to you I got it working.
Thanks
Clearly the issue was a problem between the screen and the chair.
I wish they would have let us have the widget at the top of the screen on all the home screens like you can in normal ICS/JB. I use it a lot.
