For the love of God, I cant figure out how I had the nice bookmark and Calender widgets using this launcher before I flashed my latest ROM. The two widgets I'm speaking of are available with LauncherPro. The calender shows the entire month and the bookmark widget allows me to scroll through all my bookmarks.
Any help to figure out where I can find them or download a similar app would work too.

LauncherPro is used by a lot of people because it's creator developed widgets similar to HTC's. Other launcher's do not have them.
Alternatives can be found in the last pages of this thread.
There are many free and paid substitutes. I personally am using pure calendar widget.
i use Jorte for my calender widget (tons of differnet widgets). Bookmarks, i just use the ones in Dolphin

Would it be possible to add said hack to rosie? Touiteur, Pure Messenger and other scrollable widgets are out there, however they only work with LPP and ADW home. Rosie does not have a Gmail widget, sad as its the main mail service. Although I like both of the alternate homes. Rosie is by far the smoothest and fastest. I would love to keep the stock feel and have the ability to use these scrollable widgets.
Not without a lot of hard work.
And this post belongs in the q&a section, not in the android development section.

For gmail, I just use the exchange plug widget. GMail can use exchange by using the m.google.com as it's domain.
I just flashed MIUI and really like it. But I'm upset about my missing calendar widget. Does anyone know of an aesthetically pleasing, full page calendar/agenda widget akin to Sense's? Thanks.
Actually, maybe a better idea. Is there a way to theme launcherpro to look like miui launcher?
I use LauncherPro with MIUI but I hate the look of the LP Widgets. I use Android Agenda Widget for my calendar. There are a bunch of skins for it and you can customize it pretty much any way you want. It's free too which is always a plus.

I use Smooth Calendar agenda widget (it's 1x4) and Jorte Calendar (3x4) monthly view widget. Both are free in the market and sync with my Google calendar. This combination takes up an entire screen and gives me everything I need at a quick glance.

I use Colorize Widget myself
another one here for smooth calendar, i have it show 3 events and you can tell it to use what calendars and what apps to run off of
I appreciate all the replies, I actually downloaded each widget suggested... but none of them quite did it for me :/
I love the aesthetic of colorize, but there is no calendar and it seems like it doesn't sync with google?
I liked the functionality of jorte, but man, thats an ugly widget, even when i switched over to black. (white is hideous)
Smooth calendar is cool, except I really want a full screen widget.
Oh well, it looks like I'm switching back to LauncherPro, that calendar widget is just too awesome to lose.
Yeah either sense or lp it is i guess

Pure Calendar Widget.
Currently using Nova Launcher and i'm missing almost nothing from the Sense one...Apart maybe form the Contacts widgets. I used to have 2 bar-shaped ones, linking my groups to them i had fast access to their members when needed. I found nothing similar in Nova though...Is there any solution or app that i could use? any suggestions?
I love the stock touchwiz calendar widget that shows the full month with actual text on the days. Ever since I switched to nova, I can only access the calendar widget that comes with stock android. Is there a way to get touchwiz Widgets with nova?
Same problem here.

I also was dissapointed the touchwiz calendar widget was missing. The best compromise I came up with was to have it activated by double tapping the home screen.
Meeeeeeeh
I looked at a couple of other launchers and they don't have the TouchWiz calendar either - just the default. That full month widget must be something created specifically for TouchWiz like how some launchers have unique widgets to them. Might want to email the dev and see if they can extract the TouchWiz full month widget or create a similar one.
Give Calendar Pad a try it also shows text for appointments on Month Widget, only issue I have is it isn't optimized for tablets but works great on phones.

Will the calender widget or any other app from the original stock Evo ROM work on the newer Jelly Bean ROM? I really like it and hope to use it. I want to know if they are compatible since it's just an older app.

You mean from stock? No, no sense based app's or widgets will work on any of the ics/jb roms, only GB sense roms.

Thats what I thought but I wasn't sure. I read that all of the sense apps are designed to run with the Rosie Scroll. I just wanted to make sure. Thank you.
The stuff on the market sucks. Does anyone know of a full page Google calender widget, or one that is compatible with it? I"m having trouble locating one.

I personally use Business Callendar. The widget is better then sense in a lot of ways. (smaller text, more on the screen, and like 15 different color palates). https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=netgenius.bizcal That's the free version. Paid version was the app of the day on amazon market a while back. So I can't comment on the ad's, because I have the paid version. Try the free version first and if you like it....
A couple other favorites of people...
Calengoo https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.calengoo.android I didn't care for the widgets (unless they have been updated), but will also synch google tasks.
Pure Calendar Widget.. EXTREAMLY customizable
- Agenda view https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.koxx.pure_calendar
- Calendar view https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.koxx.pure_grid_calendar
They also have a few other cool widgets.
Also, some of the launchers have pretty cool built in widgets. Go Launcher, Launcher pro plus. Seems like there was another couple also.

Yep, that Business Calendar is the business.... Ha... Did you buy the paid version? What features are unlocked? I just downloaded the free version yesterday, but I haven't had much time to play with it yet. I'm having phone issues. Tell me what you like about it and if I should spend the $4.99 for it.
It was the free app of the day about 9 months ago on the Amazon Appstore, so I have the full version. Best parts of the paid app (besides no ad's) is more widget themes and a dark theme for the actual app instead of the light theme. Has some other things also, like linking certain contacts to events, drag and drop for some things, and making a template for events.
Personally, I just REALLY like the widget. Best calendar widget I've found.
I would highly recommend "Agenda Widget for Android."
Highly costomizable and free. The only draw back is that it isn't like the stock evo calender widget what displays the whole month.
