[Q] Can you delete widgets from phone?

Can i delete the 60+ widgets on my phone that I never use? Does deleting widgets benefit the speed of my app drawer loading?

I've been curious about this as well for a while. Although, I assume if the widgets are installed as part of an app, then the answer would be "no". For example, IP Cam Viewer comes with like 6 different widgets with different sizes and layouts. I'll never use any of them, but I don't think I can uninstall them without uninstalling the app altogether. Can somebody please let me know if I'm mistaken?

if they are part of an app, you have to uninstall the app.

I figured. Oh well. I guess it doesn't bother me that much. Thanks for the reply!
@nihn75, @simms22, @charesa39 Actually, you can delete them. Use Autostarts to disable whichever widgets you don't want and they will disappear from the drawer and homescreen long-press list.

Wow! Interesting. Thanks for the tip. So does this do the same thing as the Xposed Module, BootManager?

These apps disable the receivers. ROM Toolbox works as well.

Autostarts seems to disalbe most but there are still 25+ hanging around. Great start, thanks!

Between Autostarts and Rom Toolbox (Thanks @Aerowinder) you should be able to get that number lower.

Some widgets don't have separate receivers. You can't get rid of all of them, but most of them you can.

EMUI taking control of closing apps

Hey guys,
So just like the title says emui is closing apps especially audio related apps even though I've told to exempt those apps from battery optimization.
The apps specifically are:
Pandora
SoundCloud
Pocket Cast
I have factory reset the phone just to make sure I haven't done anything weird while exempting those application. They still get closed when I lock the screen.
Another thing to note, when the app closes it might sometimes (especially Pandora) relaunch itself and be fine with the screen off. Other times I have to go back in restart the app and then on screen lock it might work but there's no guarantees.
Just wondering if any of y'all have had this issue before and how did y'all go around fixing it.
I had also issue when I hearing songs in saavn app.
go to phone manager , there swipe left you will find lock screen cleanup there choose the app which you want to run even the screen is off:good:

[APP][4.0+] Amazing weather HD

After seeing a lack of clean and minimalistic weather live wallpapers on android, i decided to work on this collaborating with one of the finest artists group in Europe and after 7 months of work, here it is, Amazing weather HD. with simple, minimalistic animations and clean UI. The exquisitely realistic animations of cloudiness, rain and snow etc., provide the vivid sensation of current weather conditions for almost every location on this earth. the live wallpaper also reflects the real-timings and weather conditions of your current location through various backgrounds.
+Features+
•Support for on going weather notification for current location.
•Add multiple locations in the app and swipe left/right to access them.
•Covers almost every location on earth (with underground API).
•Live wallpaper changes with the weather and also changes with day and night.
•Full customisability, so that you can experience your favorite weather animation, of the app, any time on your home screen.
and many more like auto update forecast, data in Metric/Imperial, local weather provider, GPS Search etc.
Please rate and review if you like it. if you have any issue, please report me the problem to my email, i will look into it.
For XDA users - Here is a free version http://goo.gl/X9JVe3 (with CLEAR & RAINY Animations for LWP). If you like it, support the development by buying the full version.
Full version - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.weather.amazingweather

There is actually no free version on google play and the free app is only for XDA users. i couldn't attach the apk in the thread as it said the apk is too large to be uploaded to XDA.

Very nice animation
The application has small problems of internationalization - some screens are always in English, some are translated, and some are a strange mixture.
I sent you screenshots in a private message.

In case you want to buy full version, then its required, so that app remembers your account & when you want to reinstall full version it will know it was you. this is generally remembered b google itself but free version is not uploaded on playstore and being offered to only XDA users. hope this clears your concern

It works perfectly if I use lawnchair 2 launcher. But I don't wanna use that.
check the google app. goto settings/notifications and then current weather. my was the same as yours and i changed something but don't remember exactly what so that might have been it.

yeah, i agree. it's frustrating for me that i can't remember things. maybe when you're near 70 you'll have perfect memory, i don't.
Update the google app, if its already updated to latest then join the beta and update, will fix it after reboot

You are not alone. I started having the same problem (occasionally) since the latest system update (December 5, 2019). Plus apps no longer auto-update (never), even when I am on Wi-Fi. None of that was an issue prior to mentioned update.
For weather not showing I suspect app gets "power-optimized".
For app auto-update not working - there are multiple reports for that over the past year for Pixel and other phones with no clear solution. I tried clearing Storage and Cache for Google Play Services but it didn't help.

just checking that you have given google app location permission and location is on.
another thing is i'm also using nova launcher in a very minimal way but that might have something to do with it.
i discovered by searching that it's a pretty common issue. but if it's something you want and you can have it by using a different launcher try out a different launcher for a week, maybe. good luck in finding a solution.

I found the solution. I'm on basic phone launcher ( no launcher installed or rooting done).
Just enable location on and go to your Google account and turn location history on.
Then restart with location turned on.
It's there now.
Found sort of a solution
It isn't the best solution, but it works (at least for me it does). I found that if I put another at a glace widget on another screen (so there are 2 now, one on my home screen, one on another), it works and shows weather on both. If I remove it, the weather goes away again.. Hoping this is some sort of clue to get this fixed permanently.
