hey guys
I made a wallpaper with a Moto 360 on the background. using this on Google Now Launcher with a circular clock placed on it looks really cool. It's like a smartwatch for the time on your wallpaper. (Tested on Note 3 SM-N9005, It should work with any device with the same resolution)
Sorry that I can't put screenshots in here because I just started posting. Check it out for yourself it's easy!
THIS DOES NOT ONLY WORK FOR THE CLOCK WIDGET!
Every 1x1 or 2x2 resizable widgets should work! Of course to look good they need to be circular too. I got 2 examples that I like the most to use on the other pages.
-Shazam (resize to 2x2)
-Battery disc (2x2 widget)
-Of course many more!
Instructions:
Download Google Now Launcher from the Play Store
Download Google Clock From Play Store. (Pre installed on aosp based roms)
Download Zedge from Play Store
Set Google Now Launcher as your default Launcher
Search ''Moto 360'' or ''ClockWidget'' by ImVisualz on Zedge and set it as your wallpaper
Now place the clock widget into the Moto 360 on the background for all the pages on the launcher that you use
(this might be possible with other launchers that have the ''resize widget'' option
Let me know if it worked with your device info

I love this phone, but I am not that crazy about the icons on TouchWiz. Is there anyway to change icons without being on a ROM that has the theme chooser?

you cuold always try apex launcher or another launcher also!
APK Edit will allow you to change the icon and/or application name for any program... very easy to use.
see this:

OK, a lot easier way to do this is to download "Apex Launcher" or "Nova Launcher" from the play store. They both support icon packs. There are many free ones out on the play store (stock jellybean, motorola icons, lg icons, google icons, touchwiz icons...etc)
Launcher:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5hbmRkb2VzLmxhdW5jaGVyIl0.
Icons (a bunch):

Sweet, thanks for the response guys that helps a lot.

Icon changer works for me:good:
I've been using Apex launcher for a while now an I really like it. The best feature is letting me change the home page grid size. I really prefer to have 5 x 4 instead of the default 4x4.
I find GO Launcher EX to be an excellent launcher as it has some many plugins available so you can customize every aspect of the O/S to make it look exactly like you want. It also has a complete widget series for further customization. I like the custom calendar, weather, and notifications it provides. Also there is a really cool SMS text message app that add many custom icons to your text messages.
Hello would like to know if you know where I can find the original weather of the s3 or s4 or huawei that work on apex launcher, I have installed the hueawei and runs the apk but widget not, problem to load the widget, also have the 2.3 I found modified and that if that goes.
Search for a UCCW skin, I don't know if we have a ported version of those widgets
I don't like the uccw, I want to open the weather forecast. now I have the android weather.
Uccw is great. You just need to enable weather in the setting to get it to work. Then just use any weather forecast skin people have made. Download the uzips.
Edit: I don't know if it's the same but you can use this widget here.
Previously I've used the ADW launcher but have found every phone I've had become unmanageably slow over time. I've never been able to identify the problem but this time I'm trying to leave as many things stock as I can bear, starting with the launcher.
The default launches seems palatable enough but I can't workout how to resize widgets to fill the width of the screen.
Two of my favorite widgets to have on the home screen are "Fancy Widgets" (a clock/weather widget) and "Agenda Widget" (a calendar widget). Both these programs have several different sized widgets available but neither have widgets that are 5 cells wide. Is there a way to stretch the widget in the default launcher like one can in ADW?
Attached is an example of what my home screen currently looks like.
Thanks,
Slarti.
P.S.
I hope I'm asking this in the correct place.
(I wasn't able to find a Q&A section for G3 themes)
Uh, I've found that after releasing the agenda widget when dragging resize grippers become available on the corners.
This works perfectly to resize Agenda Widget to a 5x2 box.
Unfortunatly this doesn't work for Fancy Widgets.
It should be added as default feature

I think it only works for default apps in the phone.
Hmmmm
I like the stock google launcher over touchwiz. I just noticed the default weather widget (with clock) is not listed when I have the Google Now launcher active. Is there a way around this? I know I can install xwidget or whatever, but seems weird I can't use a widget that already exists on the phone.

It's probably something specific/proprietary to TouchWiz. Check out Chronus:

I believe these guys are behind cLock, the badass time/weather/calendar widget in Cyanogenmod, only the Chronus install offers more variety.
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

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
