Does anyone know of a widget or a way to port this onto the nexus, I have moved from an iphone and really miss the favourites section, when I was looking at the Razr I came accross this app / widget and think it would look amazing on the nexus.
If anyone can help me it would be greatly apprecated
You could just tag friends as favourites and add the widget

There are a ton of contact widgets in the market. Android Pro Widgets is good and what I use. You can star your favorite contacts and tell the widget to display only your favorites and sort them by most contacted, alpha, etc. It also has an ICS theme which works well on the Nexus.

Can someone direct me towards a facebook widget that is transparent for this phone please? i cant find one for this model.
Try Colorize Widget........or try the search function. There's entire threads dedicated to transparent apps n such.
Android pro widgets (apw) is better. Colorize is too buggy.

apw worked great thanks! i did do the search function but it came back with so many results that were phone specific and i wasn't sure which would work with this phone. thanks for the help. one other thing. im trying to find a good alternative to the keyboards that came with phone. a friend said htc_ime however same issue i had with the facebook is that i dont see one that is for the SGS II. is there one that i can use that will work with this phone? or another keyboard you guys would recommend?
I use SwiftKey X. Thumb Keyboard is also a good one.

Is there a free Calendar app that has a 4x4 widget that syncs with google calendar...
Struggling to find one that works on my nexus

Personally I'm using the default Calender widget. You can resize it to 4x4. It's not as good as Simple Calender Widget but until that is fixed for ICS it's better than nothing.

You learn something every day, I did not know you could re-size widgets.
Ive succesfully done that but it just shows today, can you change the view to a monthly calendar?
Thanks though mate, appreciated
No prob. Glad to to help.
I don't see any way to change the display settings of the Calender widget though. Seems like it's stuck like that.

Have you tried Jorte? I don't know if it's updated for ICS yet, but it's my go-to calendar. You can display the whole month in a 4x3 or 4x4, with your calendar entries actually spelled out, instead of just a dot that you have to zoom in on to see what it is. Pure Calendar Widget also does this, but is widget only, and costs $2.99 in the market.
Android pro widgets is really clean.. Also it includes a nice timeline style widget with both Facebook and twitter!
I recommend the paid version.. Some good themes.
Edit: forgot I was still in galaxy Nexus forums.. Not sure if it is ics compatible.

Managed to get a hold of the Roughrider widget off the HTC One S and copied the APK to my Nexus and installed, but I still don't see the widget available to be added. Any ideas, I have attached the apk file.
I'm not real familiar with this widget, but if its a sense widget chances are it won't work because most sense widgets rely on the sense framework to work

If you can get this widget to work I would be so happy.

Yup I believe you need the framework. What does the widget do by the way

I think your best bet would be to check around the play store and see if they have something similar, for example I really missed senses Facebook and twitter widgets and I was able to find android pro widgets which is fantastic they are just like the sense ones

It's a widget that shows information about a Canadian football team. I'm not sure if anything else out there will show so much information about this team than this dedicated app/widget.

Hey guys I was wondering if it would be possible to turn the first result you get in a weather search in jelly bean into an interactive widget. I think that would be cool.

What's your DPI set on?

Agreed this would be brilliant and I'm sure one of the developers round here could do it.
I'd like to see this too. I've thought about it before.
I've actually tried doing it before with various apps that grab data from website and put them in widgets but its the design and simplicity of the google weather thing thats so perfect for an android widget.
I'd be willing to pay for this for sure!
I've looked around and can't find it.
Is there a way to have the clock/weather widget from the Galaxy S 3 on our GNex's?
I like the images and cleanness from the widget and would love it on my current setup
thanks in advance, any help and or suggestions greatly appreciated

I'm looking for simply the clock/weather widget.
I use Nova Prime and don't want to change launchers or use all the functions and features I've got with Nova.
Is the widget dependent on touchwiz framework? Perhaps there is an independent .apk of the weather widget?
I am going to look for a themed UCCW widget.
Thanks for pointing that link out though

I was able to find this finally... I am downloading and will report back how it looks on the gnex

Edit: I couldn't get the background images to ever display correctly after importing the uzip.... everything was as it should have been. Shame, looked like a keeper.
The search continues!
