I know someone on xda ported the launcher from touchwiz and it works well, I just need my htc widgets though.

I had this peoblem too. Unless you root and use something like miui or roms that mimic Samsung, Motorola launchers, you might be out of luck.

These three are the most common for a reason.
AOKP is packed full of features
Kernel lasts forever and has constant updates
Nova Launcher is like the stock launcher but makes it great by adding some extra features.

I tried Launcher Pro when I first got the Nexus, only issue I had was when I tried to use the Calendar widget the launcher would get fc's. If I didn't use the calendar widget I had no issues. Now I use Nova Launcher and love it.
I use Handcent without issues on the Nexus.

It's similar, feature wise I'd say LP has more at the moment. But considering Nova is still relatively new I'd say it will get more features in the future, Nova is more of an extension of the stock launcher.

Hello :-)

Just wondering if there are any mods that enable messaging icon notifications.. I've looked around but found nothing :-\

I was hoping someone would know of a mod not an app.. I've probably tried every messaging app on the market. But I love my stock messaging and I wish I could get message notification count on the stock icon..

Sorry, I don't get exactly what your after. Are you wanting a notification in the notification bar or on the the messaging icon if it's sitting on your homescreen?

If your not using adw or go launcher (which both have their own versions of this) then you can try these two
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kanokgems.smswidget
Or
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jb.gosms.widget
Hope one of them works for you
Edit: Just to clarify, both of these two use the stock sms app... Or any other you have installed for that matter

Can I get a response? Does anyone know of any launchers or themes that make your dock into the HTC sense one?

I think you'd have to use one of the older gb launchers like launcherpro or adw
or you could photoshop the dock onto your wallpaper
Anything else?

IIRC Nordpolcamper (probably spelt wrong) has done a decent mock up of the new sense. Basically included the dock background on the original wallpaper. Coupled with his modified clock, it looked good. He has a wallpaper thread in here, go have a look

I use picsart to make the the dock work like the HTC one. Then I go into nova launcher setting and don't let the wallpaper move. It's still. So it creates a illusion. I use Multi picture live wallpaper to allow a second picture without he dock in the ICS lock screen.
This is not what you want but it works.
Here's the link to the HTC Sense 4.0 dock photo:

Here thats a dock I made some time ago.
it was meant for no softkeys, but if you want I can rearange it so that it fits^^
You have to disable wallpaper scrolling though^^

Thank you sooooo much!!!
Do u have a soft key one???
P.S. if you use this with multipicture live wallpaper, it adjusts the picture to fit your screen when soft keys is suddenly activated. So the dock picture just barely fits on nicely.
Here's the app link:

This is the free version. Not sure if there is a pro version.

Lightweight Launcher ?

What is the best looking launcher which allows all of my stock widgets to be placed + is lightweight with alot of free ram and for GB???
Alot to ask for.
I use Holo Launcher and I've seen my free ram get up to 277MB
Smart Launcher Pro is pretty light. The UI is rather nice, too, if you like simple and organized.
Try out GO Launcher.

Afaik launcher pro, go launcher, and holo should all work with "stock widgets". Although I don't know what widgets are in question.
Perhaps OP could clarify?
No need to be rude :highfive:

Stock widgets are the ones integrated on Timescape launcher, like the stock music player widget, photos and videos widget, weather widget, timescape widget, etc etc...

Touchwiz Weather Widget clones?

Anyone know of a Touchwiz weather clone that will work on AOSP? I know you can flash the the TW launcher and weather widgets to AOSP now, but I like using launchers like Apex Or nova.... Any suggestions? Looking for a widget that changes the background of the widget as the weather changes...
Thanks!
Yeah download UCCW and a theme or skin like gs4 or gs3 style weather widget

Yeah I think I tried that, but they don't really update link the actual widget do they? I mean, if it's raining, I like how the widget has rain drops within it... Not trying to be picky, but wondering if there's anything like that out there
Oh I see. Well I know that go weather has themes that actually change with the weather but they don't look like touch wiz. Some are better.

You can flash the s4 launcher. Doesn't work on touchwiz roms from my experience but works flawlessly on aosp ROMs. There's a thread here in the apps and games forum that links you to the official thread

Thanks for the info, but at the same time, it's not what I was looking for. There's no way to get that particular widget on another launcher like Nova... Nova is way more customizable and looks much better than TW in my opinion. I tried to give Nova root (Which apparently isn't necessary anymore on JB) and still can't insert that widget. Oh well, thanks anyways
