hey, i know people have pulled the apk for the launcher and it works great on nexus one and the evo. but it does not include the widgets. is their an apk that has the touchwiz launcher along with the samsung widgets? also i just downloaded the all galaxy s apks.
are the widgets in that?
I have installed some widgets and they do not appear in the widget list in any other launcher beside the stock TwLauncher. Any ideas why? thx
Touchwiz widgets only work with touchwiz launcher, because they require the touchwiz framework.
Unless someone ports them to use the standard andriod framework, they will not work with other launchers.
thx

Hi,
On my S2 I am using the S3 Launcher together with S3 Widgets.
I want to use the S3 Accuweather widget on a different launcher (like Apex) only can't select this Widget on Apex launcher.
Is there an APK to download so i can use this widget with other launchers?
Thanks
Edwin
Nope. You can only use it with the TW5 launcher.

Same question over here. Only I think you are in the wrong section XD
Is there a way to get this widget to my APEX Launcher?
which one would you recommend? pro and con of each?
i really like touchwiz annimation when opening up app drawer. And the touchwiz widget
i tried apex on s3 and it was smooth but it doesnt include the touchwidget widget like the calender month and the weather widget
is there a way to get the touchwiz widget on apex or nova?

Nova and apex are almost the same but it has gesture support, wider range grid and has support for icon packs to change the looks of icons and no. No touchwiz widget on third party launchers

I used nova over stock, never used apex. However when sliding between homescreens there would ALWAYS be a lag upon the first swipe to a not yet visited screen, which bothered me a lot but eventually decided to just root and flash a cm10 based rom. Still would prefer nova over touchwiz, especially allowing the ability to modify the transition speed, makes it feel much snappier. Apex may have the same settings though.
Apex vs Touchwiz Power Consumption
From My Power Consumption statistics:
Apex Launcher
Time of display on: 20m Time of CPU in use 9s
Touchwiz home
Time of display on: 28m Time of CPU in use 4s
Apperently, Apex consumes much more battery accourding these stats.

You could get Google's calendar widget, which is as good or better than Touchwiz'. Also you could get fancy widgets for weather, or weatherbug, or accuweather.
I'm using Holo launcher by the way. I think there's not too much difference between any of them.
I use Nova, works great. Never used Apex so I cant say. Touchwiz is okay but I dont really like it.

I use Apex. I just need a grid that's at least 6 tall by 5 wide.
I tried Nova, too, and they are indeed almost the same. Nova did some things better but I switched back to Nova because of the app drawer - infinite scrolling within a tab. It was just too annoying to not have it with Nova.

Since S2 i am on apex. Never thought of looking another option .
For widgets there are alot of options in play store.
I use Xperia more smooth to me second favourite is nova consume less battery to the others
