[Q] What's a good alternative to the Samsung "Program Monitor" widget?

I like the concept of the program monitor because I can see if left anything running. I'm obsessed with closing apps when I'm not using them.
What I dont like about it is that it needlessly takes up 2x1 units of space. Is there a good 1x1 widget that does the same thing? I dont want to have to enter a task killer just to see the list of running apps, I just want a number in a widget that shows how many... If it's not 0 I can click it.

hi
Systempanel bij nextapp must have!

That app's not bad. But the widget part is butt ugly and just allows you to kill everything. It's close to what I want but I like the the program monitor's number of foreground apps displayed.
Visual Task Switcher is not perfect but sorta gives me what I want but extending the home menu functionality and showing active windows as popups.

Unfortunately, only the beta available for try now. The ads supported version should be available soon.
Search for active apps on xda and you will find one.

[help] Widgets are not refreshing

this initially happened with the gosms widget where it doesnt refresh everytime i get a new sms. i reinstalled gosms and it still had the problem. and now even the clock widget of sonyericsson and the other widgets likr goweather, the date widget doesnt refresh anymore. how do i go about this? are you also having the same problem?

How about Timescape? You can use it to see the messages

I don't use timescape. It's not too private.
Anyway, it's not the issue though.
Even the clock widget (stock SE's digital clock) sometimes don't refresh with the time showed in the status bar. Even the weather widget etc.

ever since the 2.3.3 update ive had the same issue, particularly with the clock. its always out of sync. tried stopping home, reloading the widgets etc, nothing seems to work and its completely random

I'm still with 2.3.2.
I tried using GoLauncherEx and so far they are working fine. But it still happens.

I have noticed that the widgets don't refresh when I'm using the default SE home..
Can someone help me with this?

I've discovered this to be a reproducible (but not solvable) problem. This might be an Android prob, as there are one or two other short threads on this site for other phones. For me it looks like the common thread is an incoming call while using an app. But fixing it... who knows?
I have been able to reproduce it three times:
1. after a week using my Arc, a new clock widget stopped updating except when foregrounded, and not until the next minute ticked over. I also noticed a weather widget wouldn't update reliably.
2. after two months without a solution, i completely reset the phone. All good. While playing a game, I received a call. Afterwards, the widgets wouldn't refresh except as above.
I deleted an unrelated widget because I didn't need it, and (perhaps coincidentally) the other widgets started refreshing properly.
3. a week later, I received a call while using the calendar app. Widgets no longer refresh, except as above. I haven't been able to find a fix this time. Tested widgets like the stock digital clock show the same problem.

If u hav installed beautiful widgets then..
Well after lots of trial and error.. the only solution i found is..
1. uninstall beautiful widgets animation
2. clear data beautiful widgets from settings - apps - beautiful widgets
3. uninstall beautiful widgets..
Living without beautiful widgets is better than facing that refresh problem..

Fix launcher lag
This method worked on my SE Arc S (.42). You need to have root access.
1) Open the following file: /system/build.prop
2) Add this to the end of the file and save it: ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
3) Reboot.
Hope it helps.

thats what i meant. its much better to have them inside the apps

1) ability to add widgets in the first page of homescreen (dont know if its possible or not but i didnt see it)
2) you cant do a google search in the adress bar in dolfin.
3)when you delete historial in dolfin, most visited remains there and you have to delete pages one by one

yes man we know. but its not inside the app.

yeah settings should be in the app itself.
option missing to unlock screen with any button.
file manager shows either phone memory or card, not both.
gallery sucks
cant find image editor, but it was promoted in early bada 2 videos, so it should come.
voice input opens randomly...
new camera sucks too, for example there is only option: preview on and off, but not the 2secs option anymore. i liked the old camera.
in file manager long press on files doesnt work...
in music player i liked old cover flow. and theres an option to view current playlist, but you cant delete/move tracks there. and maybe when viewing single tracks in music player, at least i dont need the cover art at every track. its just slowing down.

[Q] New mails don't appear in the Lock Screen

Hi. I am very satisfied with my HTC ONE X. There is just one thing bothering me: It seems to be impossible to display the new arriving mails on my Lock Screen (Productivity). Missed calls, new text messages and my calendar events are no problem, but there is now way to get the new mails on that screen. The settings are correct, but I still don't unsterstand why it doesn't work....
Waiting for HTC support is like hoping for Jesus to appear in front of you ...
By the way, I am using the official Gmail App for my mailing. I also read in another forum that the HTC guys are not to blame: The problem would be coming from Google...
So, what shall I do, did I miss something ?
Does anyone have an idea to help me out, would be highly appreciated !

Are you using a third party launcher? I have found that the Rosie launcher needs to be running in memory for the mail notification to update on the lock screen. It doesn't however have to be your primary launcher. Just create a shortcut to it and launch it whenever the notification icons stop updating. I haven't taken the time to figure out if Android kills the launcher from memory or not during use.

If you go to settings > personalise > lock screen style then go to the productivity option and select settings if you go to the 'display mail from' option it will only allow you to select the accounts you have in the default mail app.
This is slightly odd though as the calendar display options allow you to display calendar items from many more sources that you have already configured (Facebook, Google etc.)
Just for clarification, I have a fully stock HOX.

Thank you for your replies guys. It has strictly nothing to do with thirdpard launchers, or with the settings. It simply doesn't work because it is not the default mail program I am using. Sad but true...
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

I recently figured that out as well it won't show official Gmail app emails, you need to configure your gmail account into HTCs mail app which is not too bad for Gmail saying that.

Lost in Market for a damn calendar and tasks widget...

I needed to fully reinstall my Note2. But couldnt able to get the backup because my phone was in bootloop...
Anyways, after I reinstall everything, there was this widget missing, it was a calendar and tasks widget. Cant find it, i have checked the installed and purchased applications of my all but not in there.. it should be out of market in the period after I installed it..
A few reminders of it screens:
@ first of all it is a widget.
@ Sync with google tasks and other calendars.
@ You can add tasks and tasks add themself to google tasks in your account.
@ You can also select to add event to your calendar list.
@
@ Scrollable agenda style widget which is transparent
There is a line on top,on top of the line there are 3-4 buttons, refresh, settings etc. Under the line starts the tasks and calendar. You can select to show the tasks seperate from date event and show them on top of the list.
@ When you tap on the settings button on the widget, you can change the transparency level and color of the widget. You can also put a transparent light or dark background of the widget.
@ I became really obsessed about this and looking for this for 3 days... where the f.is this...! Please help !!!
@ No it is NOT
Astrid, gtasks, apw, simple calendar widget, acalendar, tasks and widget, tasks list, agenda manager, tasks free, calendar agenda widget, Jorte calendar...
@ it is really very small and free software... and believe me I have purchased the biz calendar but this on is better as a widget !! It at least includes the tasks list of google account.....
Please anyone if you used some kind of this I will immediately install and try that..
I will also share this perfect one and tell you guys if I find it first....
I will update the list that are NOT the ones I am talking about...
THANK YOU !!!

I guess no one can help (

I made a mistake and suggested maybe Business calendar then realized you already mentioned it. I cant seem to delete this post because of some new user restriction.
