Got a new Nexus S yesterday. Came with Gingerbread 2.3.4 but I received OTA to 4.1.1. Phone is completely stock unrooted, but I am running latest version of Nova Launcher. On homescreens, I have Beautiful Weather widget, Pure Calendar agenda widget, and Audiomanager Pro widget.
Every time I reboot, all of these widgets disappear. I have to re-add them.
I've searched the forum and see various other people having the same problem over the past few months, but never saw a conclusive fix. Anybody know one?
Thanks.

I have the same problem with Beautiful Widgets. My guess is because I'm using skins for the SuperClock it fails to load if the USB storage isn't mounted timely. All my other widgets don't use skins which is why I think that way, but I could be wrong.

Is there anyone else seeing an issues with widgets not updating themselves? I've got a weather widget, clock and date widget and a couple others and they no longer seem to update themselves.
I have found that if I rotate the phone to go into landscape they will get updated but this is just a one time update until I do that again.
I'm running a rooted version of the GB OTA
nm..... apparently it was just ADW.Launcher, went back to the stock launcher and it works fine now.
This is probably a dumb question, but I'm coming from a N1 with CM7.1 and I don't know if this was a Vanilla Android thing or a CM thing, but one widget that I LOVED was the Google Calendar widget that would give me my schedule up to a week in advance on my home screen. After my daughter threw my lovely Nexy down 12 flights of stairs in an obvious act of jealousy, I got the Skyrocket, and I can't find anything equivalent to the old Google Calendar Widget I used. Was that a Vanilla/CM7.1 exclusive feature or am I doing something wrong? It's not listed in my widget list, nor can I find it on the market.
TIA
Hate to bump, but does anyone have an answer or solution to this? I really do miss that widget..
Missing Google Calendar Widget
Even on my stock Galaxy sII Skyrocket I do not have access to the Google Calendar Widget.
I rooted the phone & installed Titanium Backup, Rom Manager, etc.
Haven't been able to find a stock Google Calendar widget.
I have now also removed some of the bloat-wear on the phone from AT&T and Samsung. This has resulted in the stock calendar widget that Samsung installed being unavailable as well.
Any assistance in being able to install a stock Google Calendar Widget would definitely be appreciated.
BUMP
Actually I'd like to know as well, or if there's the working widget (originally on the stock Gingerbread OS) for ICS.
Try
smooth calendar
In the store
Edit: I use pure calendar, btw

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.....
I have searched the web and the forums thin looking for a Calendar Widget with the same behavior as the stock Sense calendar. Im not talking about the Agenda one, im talking about the month view version of it.
I know about, and have tried Jorte, Pure Grid calendar and some other similar ones, but none of them has the behavior that i really like from the Sense one.
I want a calendar that ONLY shows one month at a time, and when i scroll up and down it should jump one whole month instead of scrolling smooth a week at a time...
APW Calendar sort of does it, but it does not support scrolling, it can only jump with buttons...
Can it really be that the Sense style Widget have not been ported to run on other launchers..?! Or that anyone haven't made something like what i'm looking for?
(I'm using ARHD 6.2.1 ICS with ADW Launcher EX, on a Sensation XE)

Yeah I have tried that too, and i really liked it, but i prefer ADW Launcher to GO, so i was kind of hoping a calendar like that existed somewhere else
I use launcher pro and that had a similar widget ... really loved it.
Problem is that LPP widget does not work on ICS based roms. Once you try it to place the widget on the screen, it will crash and then LPP will continuously crash. There is no way to get LPP to work again without reinstalling the rom.
Am keen on getting a similar widget and sincerely hope that someone points me to one
OMG do i love SKY ICS 4.2e....I love that it is just like the S3's launcher. I've found one minor bug with the UI. The calendar app widgets(4x1 Agenda, 4x4 Month, and 4x2 literally crash the TWlauncher over and over as it tries to initiate the widget everytime. I read through the fixes and this is listed. Go into apps find twlauncher in the ALL APPS tab, go into the app and click the clear data button. This removes all your shortcuts but it fixes the launcher. I am wondering if there is anyway to use the calendar widgets? Anyway to install a different calendar apk or just use a different one all together? I really love the stock samsung calendar so I would like to figure a way to fix this. Any help would be great! Thanks!
