Good morning guys,
Used the launcher and installed MIUI of these days the LauncherPro Plus, and I fell in love with his own widgets, eg Facebook, twitter. You can see all updates in the launcher own without having to be opened by pressing the program or get one by hand and seeing how one of the widgets in the program itself. I would like to leave if there are some widgets that do the same job or if you have way to install these widgets in LauncherPro MIUI?
It would be the perfect combination, the launcher would be perfect for Android.
Thank you.
Excuse my English (google.translate) rsrsrsrsrs
If you mean you're looking for widgets like LP+'s, I'd take a look at Colorize Widgets.
MIUI launcher doesn't support scrollable widgets. You can try Android Pro Widgets though, they have funky but functional workaround.

ADW.Launcher. Open source home replacement app. Features: Customizable desktop previews, Customizable application drawer (old one or iphone/galaxy one), Customizable drag drop action buttons, Unveil the Dockbar flicking-up the app-drawer button and drop another 6 shortcuts/folders/apps! Check the site for more information or meet me on xda! (For Android version 2.0 and higher)
Laucher pro Features:
LauncherPro Android App in a home screen replacement app that is a fork from the stock launcher from Android 2.1 (Eclair). By default you have 3 home screens which is configurable to up to 7 in the Settings menu. Along the lower section are convenient icons with quick links to Phone, Contacts, Android Apps Launcher Drawer, Messaging, and Browser apps. The latest release added numbered notification icons for new text messages, missed calls and new emails. When you open the Android Apps launcher drawer, apps are presented similar to Android 2.1 launcher only difference is the cool 3D roll effect is missing however LauncherPro features a faster and much smoother scroll… convenient when you have a lot of apps like myself!
Which one do you like?
ADW for me, works flawlessly.
i just used the ADW and so far so good
LauncherPro Plus. Resizable widgets and all the settings that really matter, including the scrollable dock bar...pure smooth awesomeness.
LauncherPro. I love the customizable dock with built-in notification counters.
ADW.. open source. customizable look, customizable dock, hidden dock, customizable widget sizes, it's fast and it's free :]

To any user who likes a phone to be used as intended:
-zero redraws
-zero memory hogging widgets/usage...
-fluid/fast responsiveness
ADW is the only choice period.
I've used Launcher Pro Plus (bought and paid)
and love the widgets he has created...
However when using the:
-people
-twitter
-sms
-calendar widgets
(in addition to)
weather widget donate
music widget
pandora widget
google search widget
power setting widget
Launcher Pro Plus will inevitably bring my phone's memory to
35MB, and well, you know the rest.
ADW is the best, most stable launcher.
Launcher Pro Plus... for me.. takes all the good widgets out of Sense..
By far the best IMHO
ADW for me too.
Love ADW...looks great and works like a charm for me.

LauncherPro is the clear winner, at least on older devices such as my HTC Hero.
ADW's performance is remarkably poor on my phone, while LauncherPro is completely smooth. Having said that, I don't use too many fancy widgets.
It is a shame LauncherPro isn't open source though. I wish it was.

What's the big deal of open source? Why is it a shame? I seriously don't get it.
ADW is deffinently more stable on my HTC Incredible BUT I lopve the customization that i get with LP....When I want my phone to be fast I use ADW...When I want my phone to be sleek and nice looking to show off my phone to my friends I use LP.

1) Open Source means (if you've got the dev chops) you can easily get at the code and work it to how you like.
2) There's substantial savings with buying open source...
Previously, I am big supporter of ADW.Launcher.
Now I am big big supporter of LauncherPro Plus.
LauncherPro Plus is much much rock than ADW.Launcher especially on speed, user friendly, stability and customization.
LauncherPro Plus even though I don't use the widgets.
Launcher Pro Plus
I do use the People, Messaging, and Twitter widget. being able to resize any widget is a huge benefit.
The additional row on the home screens is a big plus to me too.
I found that most of my memory based issues were resolved by setting it to the low memory profile. No real loss of function and no more force closing.
I find ADW a lot limited compared to LP, ok its grand if you want a fast phone they say use ADW, but why not reduce the widgets/look of LP, it is the more customizable launcher, hence why I find it better
LP+... seems smoother and simpler
I had the pleasure of testing a SenseUI based "NXSense" ROM on my N1
Problem is, I had several widgets I really freakin' loved
-the HTC Clock
Beautiful widgets and Weather clock donate are popular recomendations as alternatives but I fail to find them succeeding at one thing: integration. Also, they all cost money which I'm not really okay with considering there should be a way to rip the apk from the SenseUI roms??
The HTC clock thing was using GPS/location to get weather, i hit the date and it opened up calander, i press the time and it brings up my alarm clock and an already inbuilt timer and stop watch. I absolutely loved this.
-Friend Stream
I've used other social network apps.. This one is just so much more simpler. Add accounts, post from widget, done. all networks update. Nothing I've used yet is this well done.
-Activesync Widget for the inbuilt mail app... man that thing was a nice setup. I'm willing to pay for alternatives as this one is work related. My MS Exchange email was so easy to read from this widget
Bingo
Well I think you hit the nail on the head - integration - in fact from my understanding the HTC widgets are very integrated into Sense. And as such there is not a way to port them... something to do with the Framework if I recall reading that somewhere correctly. However Beautiful Widgets does basically the same as the HTC clock but does cost money, and Fancy Widget is identical in look, no idea about functionality. As far as friend stream I know of no alternative, however LauncherPro Plus (also pay) has some widgets that look like it, but of course they are not the app.
However, I am pretty much permanently converted to Sense ROMs and won't be leaving NXSense anytime soon haha
Welp I guess HTC sense rom it is.
launcherpro plus has some sense widgets including on similar to friend stream. it also has facebook twitter calendar bookmarks and people sense widgets too
From my understanding - using friendstream 'n stuff without porting the HTC Sense environment wont work, so either use a sense rom like MicroMods, or live without friendstreem :/
Yup launcher pro plus has it and I love it. Plus I'm using beautiful Widgets for my clock and it does exactly what you say
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
So I bought launcher Pro Plus and ended up flashing to a SENSE UI ROM
I still have a conflict. I just dumped $3 on Launcher Pro Plus, and I'm not exactly happy with its widgets. It doesn't have a FRIEND STREAM widget, it has a FACEBOOK widget :| Not really happy about that
Now when I'm using Launcher Pro Plus, which by the way is way superior as a launcher to any stock launcher, I cannot use any HTC Widgets. Instead they're locked to the HTC Launcher. Very, VERY angry with this.
Is there any way I can get the HTC sense widgets on Launcher Pro? The stock launcher sucks, it lags, its slow, I can't add rows or columns (#1 reason why I like Launcher Pro), and the list goes on.
Someone please help

For Launcher Pro Plus, there is a Twitter Widget, a Facebook Widget, and a Friends Widget which combines the two.
There is no way to use HTC Widgets with a different launcher than the HTC Launcher. Likewise, there is no way to use the Launcher Pro Widgets with a different launcher than Launcher Pro.

Well here's the thing, the HTC Sense Friendstream also has Google Buzz and Flickr Updates in there *pulls hair out* D:
I think I'll stick with the Sense based ROM as I absolutely love the Gallery integration with my Flickr.. but man oh man I really am upset at the lack of those widgets.

launcherpro does have a friendstream like widget that has both facebook and twitter on one widget.
Right now, I'm running CM 6 and I had launcher pro plus, loved the widgets but i found it was using up quite a bit of my battery. I'm trying to switch back to ADW launcher but I cant find anything close to the widgets that Launcher pro offered(i.e. bookmarks, messaging scroll widget). I've looked at beautiful widgets, pure messenger, and some other ones but can't quite find anything like it.
Is there a way to get sense widgets on cm6 other than launcherpro? Even the clock widget that has alarm+timer+stopwatch when you click it(i have weather widgets so it looks identical). And also the bookmarks4x4 and messaging scrollable widgets.
Wrong section.
Thread closed.
Guys i'm using MIUI ROM and i'm hesitant to install launcherpro coz i'll loose all the feeling of miui!!!
I need a calendar widget like the one in HTCsense or launcherpro, scrollable, showing full agenda and can switch if possible to calendar month view.
Besides i need a friends widget (Facebook primary and Twitter if possible) like in the one of HTCsense or launcherpro, scrollable, showing status, updates, pics, likes,....
Please guide me
Sorry if this is the wrong section to post, but it doesn't fit too in android general development
10x
Well Launcherpro plus (payed) will give you the widgets or you can get colorize widgets for free.
Schould be almost the same.
Beside that, there are 1 million calender widgets out there, but the one with the most features should be Android Agenda Widget
I agree, I'm Trying to find a nice cal widget like HTC's but nothing really comes close. Is there an APK for that or is it built into HTC?
MIUI Launcher doesn't support scrollable widgets. You will never find one that works on the stock launcher.
Pure calender widget is good.
Completely customisable as well.

I already have Android Pro full version,and full version isnt free.Like it over colorize widgets and LP widgets
So since Launcher Pro has been abandoned I am looking to replace it. The only thing that stops me are the perfect widgets that come with launcher.....calendar, facebook, and tweeter widgets are the best I have ever used and work 110% (having some problems with launcher itself though)
So did any one use those widgets and found same or better replacement yet ?
ps. I love GoLauncher but their Facebook widget is also dead......
well i was goning to say golauncher ex but you already know, you could give android pro widgets, they are almost clones of the launcher pro widgets
I haven't tried Android pro but I've used "colorize widgets" with success. I believe it's been around for a lot longer too https://market.android.com/details?id=com.snowbee.colorize
thanks. will try Colorize Widget already tried APW and didn't like it much
maybe found a fix today for my constant reboots of launcher pro.....
