Did you freeze something with TB?

Can you add any using the menu option, or with another launcher?

Don't install Widgets on your SD Card. They need to be on the internal storage to work.

Appwidgetpicker.apk???

Anyone know if appwidgetpicker.apk will still work on this phone? I don't have the phone yet..

It does as long as you're not using the touching launcher. You have to move it into system/app and change the permissions to match the other apps

Thank you for the replies. I thought it would but wasn't so sure because of touchwiz, I somewhat like it.. but ok, thank you

It will work on any ROM that is running a launcher besides Touchwiz (go launcher, Launcher pro...) I have not found a way to get it to run on Touchwiz 4.0/Stock Launcher. if you find out how let me know!

Lock screen button

Is there an app or mod for locking the screen without using the top button. I had one for GB but when restoring for my rooted ICS, it doesn't work.

I think you can create a widget with tasker that will lock the screen. You can do practically everything with it. I'm using it for custom message tones for my contacts and reading texts when I'm driving
Thanks, I never thought is using tasker.

The folder where the default wallpapers are. I been trying to change my lockscreen to something I've downloaded but it seems like selecting it from the regular gallery doesn't work.

Are you running a custom ROM? From gallery you should be able to set current picture as background. But on custom ROMs you can have a completely different picture for your lock screen than what a set as your home screen.

Actually you can set them separately on stock based roms as well.
And putting your picture in another location probably won't fix the problem. Sounds like you're on a JB rom. Some of those had some issues with this. You may be able to set wallpaper by going through the settings menu. Or try pressing menu while on homescreen and select set wallpaper.

Stock based ROM is settings>display> choose which you want to change.

Thanks I guess it's just an issue with the JB ROM.

[Q]Media widgets problem

Hi.
I'm having problems with media button widgets (widgets for play/pause etc.). They do not work at all. Does anyone know what the problem may be? I'm on stock 4.1.2 LK7, rooted.
