Bro, can you share that background???? Looks tight.
I should be putting up my soon. Be awesome to keep this thread going. hahaah
My setup
My setup. I only take credit for the dock background, battery icon, and notification dropdown list.
Nissan, is that a theme with the text instead of icons? Reminds me of Rainmeter.
I use LPP, but the icons are totally stock. I only got it for the twitter widget. That's the only thing I missed about Sense, but I don't have to deal with it anymore. I have a recurring issue that comes up every few days, where it force closes, but I'm not really sure what's causing it, and haven't been able to figure it out.

Well the ROM itself is CM6 Stable, I just tweaked it a bit by theming the Notification bar and dropdown list. The icons in the dock, however, were not my work. I found them while I was browsing the net for custom Launcherpro dock icons a few months ago. I cant really remember where I got them from though...
The desktop icons that you see (market, xda, etc...) are from Signals23's Neue theme which can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=799623 then I just used Desktop Visualizer (which can be found in the market) to add the icons to the desktop and used the widget resize function built into Launcherpro Plus to change the size of them. However, all of the icons in my app drawer are completely stock.
As for you force closure problem, I find that a bit odd. I don't use any Launcherpro widgets so I have no idea why it would be doing that. might be something you should ask in the development section. the guys in there are geniuses, unlike myself

I love that Dock...how did you get it to look like that?
I saw this picture posting up on Twitter, does anyone know what this Clock Widget is called ?
And where to get it ...
Thanks
EDIT # 1: .. I think I found it myself .. https://play.google.com/store/apps/...bbledigitalweatherclock&feature=search_result
EDIT # 2: .. Ok, looks very close to the image, however, the weather is larger on the attach image than the one on Google Play !!
So question still stands .. Anyone know what this widget is called ?
Glad you found it, looks nice. I think I'll check it out too.
Looks like it could be UCCW with the background image made to look like the rings widget. Not sure what weather icons it would be using though.

Sweet find! I really like how slick this looks. Thanks a bunch for sharing!
If anyone didn't know, you can put widgets in the dockbar. For example, Music controls(Tested on stock music app, Tunein and somewhat on Pandora).
This is how I've done it, not sure if other launchers can do it too or not.(Apex Launcher seems to work too)
-Install Nova launcher(I'm using the free version). It's a pretty decent launcher anyways
-Under Nova Settings>Desktops tick the 'Resize All Widgets' option
-Place whichever widget you want on your homescreen, resize it to the smallest possible option
-Drag it and place it on an empty dockbar(Dockbars are like homescreens in this launcher, you can have multiple and just swipe side to side)
EDIT: It seems the fallback to this is that you can only have one icon available on the dock. Under Nova Settings>Dock>Dock Icons set it to 1. This does limit the other dock screens that you might actually have more than one icon on. Also set all the margins to none.
Couple pictures of widgets I've placed(Tunein, Stock Music App, and System Tuner widget)
This has been tested on Synergy r64 and CWM10 8/31 nightlies...
Definitely going to have to experiment with this!

I just downloaded it and tried it... it worked for me... Were you actually running Nova Launcher???
This is a fluke that I found so help me trouble shoot it... I may have settings changed that you don't... etc...
Good find. Didn't even think of trying that. I've used nova since I first went onto ICS leaks on the bionic. Love the launcher. I just haven't installed it onto this get cause for some reason, and i hate to say it, I'm enjoying touch wiz. I probably will install Nova and try this at some point though. My touch wiz love can't last forever.

Which widget did you use? I tried the 4x2 shrunk down and 4x1. the only way I could get it to work was 1x1 and all it did was open power launcher which i wouldn't really call widget functionality.
You had music controls or just a button that opens poweramp?

I've updated the OP but it seems that you have to set the dock icons to 1 instead of multiple for the widget to go "full size" like that. It restricts other dock screens you might have something on.

Hi all...
...can you tell me, if is possible edit ORIGINAL moto circle widget for use on another launcher???
...on adw etc???
Good question...will look into it!
The only thing simple is the belief in simplicity.
I just thought I would mention this as an alternative: I saw a theme someone had made, and he had what looked like the Moto circles widget, but it turned out to be Ultimate Custom Widget from the market. It seems that widget is super customizable, with tons of skins and stuff. It might be a good option for people who aren't able to use the stock circle widget.

Over the winter break, I'll look into this and see what it takes to make it work on other launchers. I imagine its just a few simple lines much like it is with multiwindow apps on the Note 10.1 and Note 2.
I'm done with finals Wednesday, so I'll probably crack it open Thursday or Friday.

I would *love* it if you could manage that somehow....I hate having to choose between keeping the circle widget and using a different launcher.
if it helps when you get to working on this there is some code that pertains to the circle widget in the stock launcher might be what the widget looks for on trying to load it.
Cool widget but damn, mine is refusing to update today, hasn't updated since 9:04 this morning. i was about 40 miles away from home, and couldn't get it to update location/weather when i tapped the weather circle to go to the weather app. And i can't find a refresh button or option anywhere. I have all 3 location services checked in settings. Still won't update... anyone ever have this problem with it?
I haven't forgotten about this, I promise. I've just been lazy and enjoying my first week and a half off.
I need to recreate my dev environment and get all my editing tools back, that's what has kept me off of doing this so far.

Just now opened it up and took a look inside. It's going to take me a while to dig through all the code in this thing, there's a lot.
If anyone wants to help and dig through the code with me, I attached the decompiled apk. Use notepad++ or something to view the xml's and .smali's.
I admit defeat.

I just found myself wondering what has kept me from buying full Apex already.
I hoping Apex will update soon because the stock icons are huge. My N5 feels like a jitterbug. but the transparent nav and status are so awesome i can live with the huge icons for now.

I ran Nova on GB and when ICS first released, Apex was first to update. So I used them. Eventually went back to Nova for one specific reason... Can't remember what it is though. I know I've tried apex since but it was still missing this mystery feature I guess because I'm back on Nova...

What features does Nova lack that Apex has?
The only feature I've noticed that is exclusive to Apex is the ability to make the search bar look like the tablet version. I emailed the Nova developer about this like nine months ago, and he said he may decide to add it in the future, but he obviously didn't.
Other than that, I haven't noticed anything exclusive to Apex.

Last time I checked it couldn't remove app labels in the app drawer and still had wide margins on the bottom of the home screens that couldn't be reduced/removed when the dock is absent. Apex does both of those.
Apex functions I need
Infinite scroll
Scrollable app bar
Gesture launch
KitKat has redundant access to google now / search. Swipe left, swipe up from home icon, say google now on any page. Why do we need all 3?
Also I dont want to have google now 1st screen to left. I like to have mail, calendar productivity full screen widgets to left then have music, news, reading widget apps to the right. My preference is no icons on screen above the app bar. Full screen widgets look great on such a nice screen. Simplicity please

Nice, I didn't know you could do that with the bottom margin on Apex.
I thought this was a "when do the launchers get updated" discussion, not a "apex vs nova" discussion...they´re pretty much the same thing though...one is red and the other one is blue (yea i know you can change colors )....anyways...i already paid for the full apex launcher, so update fast please
