Is there any way to get the widget to work right with a different launcher? I'm using lancherpro and it will resize the widget but the widget will not show all the info it should.
same problem.....
Hold on, trying with ADW launcher.
Edit: it seems that it has been integrated in TouchWiz. When you manually extend it vertically in TW you'll see the next days forecast, which doesn't appear in ADW Ex launcher. So you can only have it in the original 2x1 format if you us another launcher than TW.

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.

I got the a note II international version 2 days back. Pretty happy about it. Rooted it. Didn't like the tw launcher. Never liked it. Installed adwex launcher latest version. Everything work fine, except I can't seem to put the accuweather widget on the home screen, cos I can't find it in the widget selections. It's therer though in the touchwiz launcher. Also the digital clock seems to be a bit cut off on the left side in portrait mode. No amount of resizing helps.
Any clue people?
Anyone able to figure how to make LGOG's stock weather widget work with apex?
Also applies to some widget. It appears those widgets are bound to the default launcher.
Hello Everyone,
This is not something that I have created, but it is in fact something that I have checked myself and it does work successfully. I am running it now.

The only complaint I have is now that I have 5x5 on TW home screen, the widgets that I have on a few pages are made for 4x4 and I cannot resize it, nor center it. Anyone know of any tricks to force a resize or set a permanent resize for each widget?
And yes, I do now that some widgets have the ability to be resized, but not all, so this is one of the ones that is not resizable lol
Ideally, I'd like to see a 4x5 option so that the widgets could be centered, but we still have 5 rows. Just my 2 cents.

He has both on the link
anyone seen or know of a deodexed 5x6 or 5x7 layout to flash ?
why not just use a custom launcher like Nova? It gives all these options plus lots more.

NOVA completely changes the stock weather widget if you use the S5 weather widget and it dont let u use the calendar widget like its supposed to. This is the main and only thing i dislike about Nova.

I agree what about making a 5x6 custom launcher for stock touch wiz that will fit the stick weather widget? Is that possible
I switched to Google Now Launcher and for the life of me I can't find the Weather + Pedometer widget to add to my homescreen. Is it baked into a TW only feature?
Touchwiz widgets will not work in another launcher.

Which is why I always scratch my head when people buy a Samsung device and run a third party launcher. The Touchwiz widgets are awesome imo.

All the touchwiz widgets work with apex launcher. To add them I have to make 5x5 columns and rows, or it will say no more room on homescreen.

Seriously doubt all of them work... can you add a action memo to your home screen as a widget? Does it give you the thumbtack to pin them?
I have several samsung widgets working on Nova, specifically S-Note, but the s-planner widget doesn't even show up in the list of widgets that can be placed.

I also use Apex and can use most of the Samsung widgets including pedometer and S-Memo widgets.
