I'm complete stock. I updated to JB and it was there, and after I rebooted, it disappeared.

If you deleted the Launcher2 apk, it will delete your stock power control widget. Seems like it's embedded.

I never deleted anything though, I'm not even rooted! I just no longer have a power control widget. It just vanished!

Check under the asus settings that you are using the asus drawer and not the stock

same here. my phone is rooted. a few days ago i made a backup of apex pro with titanium backup pro. today i've installed nova launcher with the option to take over the homescreen settings from the apex launcher and uninstalled apex. afterwards i've restored apex with tb and uninstalled nova. the result was that the power control widget, which is provided in jb doesn't appear anymore in the widget list. to be sure i've checked the widget drawer in the jb launcher with the same result.
anyway, after that i've installed "power toggles" which is much better because i am not in the mood to restore the nandroid backup just because of this widget
nexus s
jb 4.1.1

Same here on the Prime TF201. One minute it was there - I dragged it from the Widget drawer to my desktop, it came up on the homescreen looking peculiar as just a long grey bar without any of the icons in the five segments. Then when I removed it from the homescreen and went back to the widget drawer, it was nowhere to be found! Very odd. Running the new JB stock ROM.

Same exact thing happened to me, and I really used that widget a lot, too.

Same thing happened to me, only it happened after I uninstalled Apex Launcher. Has anyone found a solution?

If you click on the notification tray area and then on the settings icon you get some quick settings like brightness. Works from anywhere in the device. As far as a full on widget for the home screen I don't know. Quick searching in the market Power Control Plus ($1.99) should work. I haven't used it myself.
check out widgetsoid, free from the market
you can place more than one in the home page, can turn on an doff settings can add short cut to apps can configure the look.....work great

Circles widget like Droid RAZR M?

I've searched the app store and Google but can't find this...I know its there somewhere as I've heard talk about it. Does anyone know what its called or where to get t by chance? Thanks!!

you have 2 options. One is called One More Clock Widget, looks just like it but the clocks are don't flip when u swipe them and don't show missed calls and texts like the motorola one. Option 2 is installing the Razr M launcher and it all works great, but scrolling left to the quick settings screen has a little lag. Its here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1900190
The first one worked great. Bought instantly. Thanks!

I downloaded the necessary apks from this thread (parts of a system dump I provided when I used to have the Razr M - returned it for the S3).
I'm on codename 3.6.0 and I don't notice any lag at all. I think it's a great widget and the launcher is better than trebuchet IMO.

thanks, works great. Did you get Quick View widgets to work? I installed it and set permissions, got the missed text counter and all working, but the widgets just say problem loading widgets

Apk's won't install

I'm running Clean ROM Inheritance 3.2.1 and I can't get apk's to install. Specifically Asus MyFrame and the email widget (it has oddly disappeared). After I run them it always finishes with "X app not installed". Any one know why? Thanks.

These are both apps/widgets that are included in the main AROMA install of CROMI -- did you select them in the installer? Check in system/app if the apk files are there -- you cannot install a user app if an apk with the same name is present in the system/app folder. This is the first step I can think of right now --not much, sorry -- but if you give it a try and then report back in, we'll take it from there. Someone far more knowledgeable than me will come in eventually.
Sent from a comfortable chair from the outer ring of Purgatory. The red guy asked me to say 'hi'.
As Marty says you shouldn't need to install these - they are part of the installer in CROMI.
What are you actually trying to do?
I had the email widget after installing 3.2.1. Then after installing Bacon Reader for reddit from the play store the desktop icon got placed where the email widget was and the widget vanished. It is no longer listed as an installed widget.
I did select myframe during the CROMI setup but it does not show up in the list of installed apps.

Right, first My Frame will never show up - it is accessed by going into live wallpapers
Now onto your other issue - are you using the stock launcher? I suspect not as asus widgets don't play nicely with some other launchers. The fact you said another icon got placed over the top sounds like you are using Nova or Apex with allow widget overlapping turned on.
I'm using the JB 4.2 launcher

Yep that'll be the issue - Asus widgets don't like the non stock launcher especially if you change from the default DPI settings.
Try it on the Asus Stock launcher and I bet you won't have an issue
I'll just find a new email widget. That one took up to much real estate for want it did anyway. Enjoying the JB 4.2 experience too much. Thanks for the help.

Two calendar apps

I just released I have two calendar apps in my app draw.
I guess one is a newer version and one an old one?
Is it safe to delete one or the other?
Thanks

The app on the left is the default Android calendar, and can not be uninstalled. The app on the right is the Google calendar app and can be uninstalled if you so choose to do so.

correct,
and even though the app on the left cannot be uninstalled*, it can be easily disabled by going into Settings->Apps->swipe to tab ALL->find it, tap on it, and tap Disable
*if you're rooted you can uninstall it, but it's not recommended to do so

Camera app disappeared

Hi, I'm new in this forum and also I'm a new android user. I got this phone yesterday and it came with the 4.1.2 update, it is working fine and all, but today something strange happened, my phone freezes up while I was watching a video, it rebooted itself and then, the camera app was gone, and the gallery app also seems to have disappeared, although they both appear on the settings/apps menu. I would like to know what can I do to solve this, please as I don't understand this system well.

Are you using a custom launcher? Most custom launches have the ability to hide apps in the app drawer. Check in the launcher settings for an unhide option.

Go to the app menu where you see the apps. Touch and hold your finger on the app for a second or 2 that you want back on one of your home pages. The home pages should show up and simply drag the app where ever you want it. Move your apps around like this and you can change the apps on the bar on the bottom of the screen the same way.

Thank you for the suggestion but it didn't work out. Unfortunately, I didn't had any other choice but to factory reset my device and now I have the camera back, but thank you for the fast answer!
