Is it possible to use GO widgets without GO Launcher - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hi,
I really like the GO widgets like the calendar and facebook ones. However, I'm starting to like QQ Launcher. I know that you install the widgets seperately and they still show up in my apps when I uninstall GO Launcher. HOwever they aren't showing up in my widgets list
Thanks

They dont show up in your widget list because they are made to work with Go Launcher, its the same with the Go Launcher themes, even when you uninstall the Launcher they are still there but you cannot use them.

It is the same with every launcher. Non of the launcher widgets will work with another launcher. I would check android widget pro

Samsung widgets with Launcher Pro

Is there any method/hack to use some of the samsung widgets with Launcher Pro or any other launcher for that matter? I really dislike the samsung launcher but I'd like to use their feed widget for twitter as I've yet to find another good scrollable one.
Thats not possible simply because the touchwiz widgets are withing the touchwiz UI, the come as a hole not as separate packages, hence they can only be install on the touchwiz launcher.

That's too bad. Does anyone know of a similar widget to Touchwiz's feed widget out there? I really liked the way it lets you scroll both facebook and twitter but I love ADW way too much to go back.
Yeah the feed widget is what I was hoping for as well... closest thing I've found is Pure Messenger

A bit off topic, but how do I get Launcher Pro back as the default launcher? While trying to get Kies to work, I made TW the default launcher, not realizing you can't turn off TW the same way. Or do I have to reinstall LP and lose my settings.

I did this too, I think I went into the manage applications menu under TWlauncher and clicked the button that said clear defaults. I believe thats how I fixed it. Then after that hit the home button and the choice to use launcher pro or twlauncher again.
I tried that initially. No TWLauncher showing in the list...hit the menu button and found the filter option. Selected "show all" and there it was. Thanks!

[Q] pro launcher (facebook and messaging widget)

without knowing what these widgets are exactly, i would imagine that they are part of that particular launcher. Launcher Pro has its own version of the messaging widget, and the official facebook app has its own widget also. i dont think it is possible, or at least very easy to migrate launcher specific widgets to other launchers. hope that helps.

They are Launcher Pro X widgets. I like the layout of them and wondered if there were any similar, apart from the official FB app or Handcent app (pop up) which I am currently using. I would use Pro launcher but I prefer the ADW launcher EX ui.

Try Pure Messenger Widget from the market (paid), but similar to the LPP widget
I was looking around for something like this too, I don't need to use lpp anymore because 2.2 stock launcher is pretty much the exact way I had it setup
let me know if ya see something
EDIT:

I've been using Colorize Widgets for a month now and I have to report that they look and work great!
You are right, an all in one widget would be cool, but as far as the widget size is concerned, most launchers nowadays let you resize,
so that would not be an issue.
Robbyf56 thanks for the link. This is exactly what I was looking for. Sorry it wasn't what you wanted.

[Q] MIUI widgets

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

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.

[Q] Is there a way to get TouchWiz S Planner & Calendar on 3rd party launchers?

Just installed apex launcher and noticed the s planner and s calendar doesn't show up in the widget menu. Is there a way to make it show up or is there another launcher that'll work? Thanks for suggestions.
that would be so good if that were possible.

Can I get the default pixel date/weather widget in Nova launcher?

I really like the Date and weather widget that comes stock in the Google Launcher on the phone. However, I've switched to using Nova Launcher because I like a couple of its features better. Is there any way I can get that widget on my homescreen?
Thanks!
Try: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.difer.weather
Sent from my Pixel 2 using my fingers on the keyboard.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tommasoberlose.anotherwidget
Try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=wangdaye.com.geometricweather and select the oreo widget in that
Guys, try this one, its called chronus (Google Play store). Its free, I just bought weather icons for 1 $. I dont know why, but I cant attach screenshot... But its looks so much better then other apps.

Yes, it is built into the Nova settings. No need to download additional widgets. Just look for the Google search bar options and select the pixel style and enable weather display.
i would love to find the built in digital clock/date widget, i cannot find it in nova launcher, could you tell me how? i don't need the weather as a widget, just the time
