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.
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.
all the widgets I find are only 4x? max... which I don't like how they scale...
can u guys share what widgets that support 5x1 5x2 5x3 5x4
thanks in advance
I would be interested too, I was just about to make a thread lol. I like beautiful widgets, but sadly it is too small .
I'm also interested in 5x1 widgets, would be nice to have extended controls and beautiful widgets that way.
Install GO LAUNCHER EX and resize them

Thank you GO LAUNCHER EX resized beautiful Widgets for me

Go Launcher runs very laggy on my note. App Drawer is a pain!
Go Launcher EX is nicer to look at and has lots of installable themes but due to lag I find Launcher Pro to be smoother and if you have the paid version you can resize your widgets
Isn't there a non-launcher-installation solution?
I asked the developer of callendargoo for a 5 by 5 widget and she e mailed me a version of the software jusr for me within 24 hrs. Other devs have been less helpful. Do e mail them though otherwise they will never get round to it!!

Can you guys help me out and vote for this idea? I emailed koxx and he said that he will consider enabling the 5x5 widget if this gets enough interest.
I guess when nexus comes out, those type of widgets will come...
PURE GRID CALENDAR WIDGET support 5x5

Elixir works fine
SiMi Clock Widget also works fine with 5x1 grid.
Any other widget?

Woot! Thanks again everyone for voting it up! Now the status of the suggestion is "planned"!
install touchwizz 4.5 work great
Hi,
Some body can explain the depdendency between Home Launchers & Widgets?
Background of the questions is when I use Sony Home launcher ,I see widgets for the Small apps ,but same time when I use the ADW,I don't see these widgets.So curious to know this?
Regards,
Why are some widgets zoomed in Nova launcher?
I.e. the Android Central widget, and Sunrise calendar.
I recently got a Galaxy S6 and installed Nova on it. With standard TouchWiz I can see much more content in some widgets (they are zoomed out). With Nova I can only see a fraction of the content in the same widgets (zoomed in). While testing this I'm using 5x5 icon grid in both launchers (and changing layout doesn't help).
For example, the Android Center widget needs a 5x2.5 grid in Nova to show roughly the same content as a 4x2 grid in TouchWiz.
Is there some option I've missed in Nova?
Another question about Nova - if I buy Prime can I get unread counts on app icons like Outlook, Skype, Messenger, Facebook, etc?
Thanks
Screenshot added. The widgets with same layout in TouchWiz has smaller fonts and shows more content (less zoomed in).
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S6
No one with a suggestion or solution?
With big issues like this I can't see why Nova is so popular :-/
