Force close in widgets - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hello, when i go to widgets the launcher fc, Why it does it?

Seems like the majority of 3rd party widgets I had on my Nexus One is not compatible with ICS....
I'm hoping that'll change

It gives fc in the originals widgets.

I thought it was one of the apps on my phone, but I uninstalled some of them, and my launcher still force closes when I browse through the widgets.
After uninstalling those apps, when browsing on the second screen of widgets when it crashes, the widgets on screen are Calendar 2 x 3, Contact 4 x 1, contact 1 x 1, Direct Dial 1 x 1, direct Message 1 x 1, Directions and Navigation 1 x 1.
restoring the apps that I uninstalled previously, it gets past the pages with the previously mentioned widgets without crashing, and crashes on the fourth page, with widgets for Evernote, Filemanager HD, and Foursquare.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
I am running the stock ROM, rooted and with ClockworkMOD recovery flashed. I haven't made any other customizations, yet.
EDIT: I fixed the problem when I flashed the latest factory image, and loaded my apps one by one. It looks like it was one bad app that I restored from my previous phone. Odd that it wasn't one of those that was showing when the launcher crashed. It looks like it was the KCRW radio player app.

I am having the same issue. Did you ever find a work around?

Friend Stream Widget Disappeared

Bit of a strange one, Friend Stream app is still on my phone but there is no option to add the widget. Only mod I have done is the Modaco Root, not a custom ROM or anything.
Any ideas?
Actually, on closer inspection all HTC widgets have disappeared leaving just the Android widgets. Any ideas what could have happened?
Did you use any 3rd part launcher app? ( HelixLauncher, launcher pro , etc. )
If you use those instead of the default HTC Sense, you can't add HTC widget to the homescreens.
No I don't use any 3rd party launchers but I've worked it out now. I just had to clear the HTC Sense application data, which annoyingly reset all of my home screens back to factory but restored the widgets too.
thanks for finding that out. just had it happen to me..

[help] Widgets are not refreshing

this initially happened with the gosms widget where it doesnt refresh everytime i get a new sms. i reinstalled gosms and it still had the problem. and now even the clock widget of sonyericsson and the other widgets likr goweather, the date widget doesnt refresh anymore. how do i go about this? are you also having the same problem?
How about Timescape? You can use it to see the messages
I don't use timescape. It's not too private.
Anyway, it's not the issue though.
Even the clock widget (stock SE's digital clock) sometimes don't refresh with the time showed in the status bar. Even the weather widget etc.

ever since the 2.3.3 update ive had the same issue, particularly with the clock. its always out of sync. tried stopping home, reloading the widgets etc, nothing seems to work and its completely random
I'm still with 2.3.2.
I tried using GoLauncherEx and so far they are working fine. But it still happens.
I have noticed that the widgets don't refresh when I'm using the default SE home..
Can someone help me with this?
I've discovered this to be a reproducible (but not solvable) problem. This might be an Android prob, as there are one or two other short threads on this site for other phones. For me it looks like the common thread is an incoming call while using an app. But fixing it... who knows?
I have been able to reproduce it three times:
1. after a week using my Arc, a new clock widget stopped updating except when foregrounded, and not until the next minute ticked over. I also noticed a weather widget wouldn't update reliably.
2. after two months without a solution, i completely reset the phone. All good. While playing a game, I received a call. Afterwards, the widgets wouldn't refresh except as above.
I deleted an unrelated widget because I didn't need it, and (perhaps coincidentally) the other widgets started refreshing properly.
3. a week later, I received a call while using the calendar app. Widgets no longer refresh, except as above. I haven't been able to find a fix this time. Tested widgets like the stock digital clock show the same problem.
If u hav installed beautiful widgets then..
Well after lots of trial and error.. the only solution i found is..
1. uninstall beautiful widgets animation
2. clear data beautiful widgets from settings - apps - beautiful widgets
3. uninstall beautiful widgets..
Living without beautiful widgets is better than facing that refresh problem..
Fix launcher lag
This method worked on my SE Arc S (.42). You need to have root access.
1) Open the following file: /system/build.prop
2) Add this to the end of the file and save it: ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
3) Reboot.
Hope it helps.

Problems anyone with HTC Cal widget in agenda format?

HTC's calendar widget in agenda format (4x4) freezes Sense each time I switch to the homescreen on which the widget lies. This has only started occurring the last few days. Reboot doesn't help. Anyone else with this bugginess?
Yes I've had this since day 1.
The smaller (4x3?) widget doesn't cause this issue and you can resize it to 4x4.
However, I've found that it doesn't seem to show correct/full information - often only showing two or three items from the next couple of weeks, missing items and leaving lots of unused space. It's also not as space-efficient as the stock ICS agenda widget. I've switched to APW
Had this too. Problem doesn't occur if I select all calendars, it only happens if at least one is not selected.

The same here, after I removed one of the calendars from the available ones. Just few minutes ago the launcher crashed while scrolling down the agenda widget..

Widgets (calendar, weather, etc) not updating on screen.

Note 4 Dev ed.
Rooted but no roms, just Titanium freezing some bloat.
I have noticed that when I try to set a Calendar Widget for the date, or to get it to show me upcoming appts and such, the on screen widget stays on whatever was live at the time I create the widget. So I noticed today that the widget showed it was "WED Apr 15" which was when I created it. I installed a 3rd party calendar widget to try to get the appts to update and display and it did the same thing, only displaying appts from the day/week I added it.
Weather widgets do the same thing, I have tried the built in one as well as the Weatherbug widget and only if I actually launch the app do I get updated info.
Is there a setting I may have inadvertently turned off? What can I do to fix this?
Same issue here. Third party widgets don't work, won't update. Starbucks, sol calender, beautiful widgets, etc. I'm stock on lollipop.
Help?
Im using Ricks Rom Lollipop and third party Widgets are working perfectly (as is everything else), i used the one rom method for lollipop then did Ricks Rom and things have been perfect. I had issues with the one rom method (Bluetooth and other things), you might want to check into a new rom.
I don't have the development version. Stock retail verizon here.
Up? Hello... Anyone?

Nova Launcher, Google Keep and other widgets not working properly

Hi, I got a problem with my Redmi phone.
I set up Nova Launcher and I am using several widgets. Some of them work without any problems, but Google Keep Widget and Event Flow Calendar widget gets deleted after one or two days. So basically, every second day, I need to set up it again. That's annoying.
Does anybody know this issue and has a solution? Should I go back to the standard launcher?
Cheers,
Sven
I've got the same issue -- was using Nova - using Evie now, and have the same issue...
Well, good to know. But I don't understand why this is happening. Makes no sense to me. Did you try with the original / standard launcher?

Rights problem, add Android background capabilities to your app
Update: I changed back to standard/system launcher, added the widgets and they disappeared after 2 days. One of the widgets was Google Keep, the other one event flow calendar and Google Calendar. When I started Google Keep from the app, the widget came back. I just had to choose my Google Account again. But it works.
Is there anybody out there who found a solution for this issue? Looks like it loses the connection to the app or something.

Hello i had the same problem. Because i have install almost my apk direct from my backup (file explorer) and many widget (agenda business, digical, aquamail dont working). I have reinstall from Play Store and problem solved... And Nova Launcher working now... (just problem accessibility if you use gesture).
The thing is that I did not backup anything. I did a fresh install from Google Play. Nova launcher actually worked, also the gesture. But not the widgets. But as I said, they disappear even with the system launcher.
So it is not related to Nova Launcher I guess.
I did not find a nice solution so far. Just the one I described, but it is rather a compromise instead of a solution. Damn Xiaomi

tried the standard launcher and from what I can tell, it didn't affect the widgets. which sucks as the standard launcher is weak sauce.
I gave the app of the widgets that didn't work in Nova Launcher all permissions, and they worked after that.
