Hi guys,just in case anyone can help... I found the apks here in the forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2691599),the stock ones from the Galaxy S5 but ported to work on the Samsung TW Roms, the accuweatherphone2014.apk and weatherdaemon2014.apk. For my surprise,just putting them into system app and giving the right permissions and rebooting made them work and the widget appears on the Google Launcher,the one I always use,and works fine,but with one problem. When you tap it and the accuweather app opens, very nice design btw, if you select settings it FCs... Any idea on how to make it work?
EDIT
Ok, found a workaround in case anyone is interested, but needs to have a Galaxy phone. In my case I have an S4 with the GPEdition Rom. What I did was to flash a TW ROM, replaced the apks with the S5 ones, set the update frequency and transparency I wanted for the widget, made a backup with Titanium, restored the GPEdition ROM and restored apps and data, and now works perfectly. Was looking for this widget to work on another launcher since my S2 early days...

I was wondering if it would be possible to port the widgets from the Samsung Galaxy S over to the Nexus One?
If there is anyone that would be able to do this please let me know (wltnkyl at gmail), I would be very interested in using these widgets on my Nexus One.
**as .apk please since my Nexus is not rooted and would prefer not to root at this time**
Thank you.
same wishes here
most likely it's a no. 99% of the time nothing can be ported from a custom UI.
or not

mm..i don't know..for me this is possible..
The launcher is ported fine..
certain, the social's widget no...because social hub is integrated in the rom, but watch and weather yes..
Was hoping to be able to use the news and weather one as it is the best I've seen. Would also like to use the contacts one, not sure about that one though as it might be tied into the custom contacts app.
If someone can get the news and weather to the Nexus One, as well as any others I would be very appreciative.
-also, downloaded and trying the Touchwiz launcher linked above, thanks for that. Just need widgets now!
edit: Installed the Touchwiz launcher ported by 'rolle3k' (great job), and it is working perfectly, no bugs that I have found yet. I recommend this to everyone out there that likes the look of the Touchwiz Android Launcher...
here is a dump of the galaxy s. apks

i tried almost all of them. almost none work except the launcher. tried live wallpapers and widgets.
maybe someone else can get them to work?
Hey Forum dwellers, this is my first post here on XDA Developers, I have just started down the road of customizing my tablet and have already found this forum very useful. I was wondering if you people could help me with a couple questions.
I have a GT-P6800 of course and the S3 SGH-1747M, I love both of them for their own reasons but I'm trying to make some of their features the same. I have flashed the Stock ICS ROM to my GT-P6800 so they are looking almost the same. My first questions is does the ICS Stock ROM run TouchWiz 5 or the older version?
I really love the stock weather widget on my S3 and would love to get it on the 7.7 tab. I have looked at various walkthroughs, some skins of other apps, some downloading APK files. A lot mention the launcher as a big part of getting the app to work. I am running the stock touchwiz UI so I thought it should work with the APKs but I just get problem loading Widget when I add it to my homepage, it looks correct from the add screen, but not once it is added.
I have been following this thread among others.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1724553
Is there any way to have the same launcher on my 7.7 as is on the S3? I notice depending on the APP that there are different widgets, for instance the BBC app, on my S3 I can have a widget with scrolling news, but on my 7.7 I only get the app icon. What is the reason for this? My only thought is it must be the launcher since both devices are ICS 4.0.4.
Anyway any clarification on this would be great, as I read and learn more about the possibilities of Android.
Thanks for any help.
I can only answer tw on 6800 ICS is tw 4.0 so its older than tw on S3
So is it possible to update it to TouchWiz 5?
no it is not possible as the dimension for 6800 and s3 is different... but you can search if there is any touchwiz launcher port in the forum. it might work with the device...
Here are a few Samsung widgets that you can put in System/Apps and they will work on on Touchwiz ROMS. (I installed them on CleanROM, but didn't care for any other than the Samsung AP Mobile Widget).
1- Favorite Contacts from the Jellybean Leak (works in ICS)
2-Favorite Apps from the Jellybean Leak (works in ICS)
2-The other Samsung News Widget that uses AP Mobile instead of Yahoo News.
4-Buddies Now (This is the one they included on the Note, not the old Galaxy S one. It basically adds a square contact to your homescreen but unlike the stock ICS ones, it is twice as large. It also will use synced pics from FB)
Samsung made made a breakthrough with widget design when they integrated resizeable widgets in their TouchWiz interface on the Galaxy S II. Lucky for Galaxy Note users, they have some exclusive resizeable widgets as well! see more http://smgm.us/rxi
awesome, thanks!
Do I need to be rooted to install these? I tried to install a couple and it came back with "X Application not installed"
Thanks

Yes you need to be rooted. Download the apk then copy the apk and paste it in the /system/app folder then save and reboot
Dont thank/like/rep my posts or ill report you.
Cool I like the AP news better than yahoo. Thanks!
sweet thanks!! do you know how we can get the folder icons from jellybean's TW to the ICS TW?
as the name says s4.s5 touchwiz for s2p can we do that?
i mean there are a lot of ports of apps from touchwiz roms, but i couldn't find any from s4 or s5,
(seclauncher3, accuweather 2013 or 2014) that works on cm11,
only works some port it's called note 3 launcher(but its seclauncher2 and 3 accuweather apps and services i think old ones).
so i want people to help me to make look like touchwiz rom or port but i think that is impossible to port touchwiz rom from s4/s5 (not with all the features/bloatware.)
i really like cm11 but i would like dialer, messaging, camera, settings etc etc. i saw on here but on i9000 section Touchwiz Fusion Rom,
so that gave me idea but i only found launcher that works and thats not even the newest launcher form touchwiz..
i apologize everyone if this thread is on wrong place i just didn't knew where to put it...
Must be possible, i know s5 rom is ported to s3 mini.
If it works there it should work in our phone cause our hardware is stronger.
Btw wrong topic! Move to SII Plus Android Development
