I'm trying to get the new Motorola photon q launcher to work on the epic touch running jelly bean. Everything seems to work just needs to be resized. Also the circle widget is really nice and would be great if someone can get it to work with other launchers. Here are the files and thank you in advance for helping on the development for this great launcher and widget.

What have you tried
I am interested in this as well. Have you pushed the app to yhour system/app directory and changed the permissions to match everything else in there?
They install fine. The only thing is when the widget comes on the launcher screen it says that you cannot use with third party launchers. I don't know how to edit the permissions of the widget itself

Talk to a really smart friend today and he was saying that it's in the code of the widget.

Anyway to edit the widget and the launcher? Because I really like both of them.

Took a look at the widget on the photon device and i must say it is pretty cool looking. You would have to attract the attention of whoever took time to port the clock and weather widget from the HTC devices.
Anyone, anyone?????? My wife is looking for this to add to her GS2
Search the Google play market for Rings Digital Weather Clock or One More Clock Free. The widgets o are looking for are in there
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=factory.widgets.bubbledigitalweatherclock here's a link for the widget. Looks pretty good

NO, it requires the sense framework. However i know of a sense 4 clock that looks very similar that does work. Its an apk someone has built but its very realistic looking. Sense 4 Clock Widget
Dude, the clock app not the weather widget.

I didn't link you the weather widget idiot. That's the sense clock widget. The one you extracted no its not going to work. What did you expect?
You took it from another phone not just another touchwiz phone a whole different proprietary overlay. Which requires its resources to run.

Ok. Let me go this way. When u open the app drawer on a HTC phone there's an app called Clock, that has the pic of a watch. This is almost like a nightstand clock. It also has other things. It's not a widget. That's what Im looking for. Have u come accross it?

The clock app in HTC sense is called clockwidget.apk....Most apps are VERY hard to port because HTC has a file system where most of the apps are dependent on HTC framework. That would mean you would have to reverse develop the sense rom which has had little luck so far..
why you see just the widget and not the clock in the app drawer is because the clockwidget.apk tells the HTC system framework for it to be there. But it will not show because fw is MIA.

Looks like some nexus icons and the status bar is green because they are on a call
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I don't know the icons (look like some google themed icons); however I can tell you the widgets
The weather one is Snow Store (4x2) with the "4x2_brushed_ink_white_hd" skin pack.
The next one looks like Simple Calendar
I believe that's all
EDIT.. sorry I was half asleep when I wrote this
It's Snowstorm***
Looks like a Go Launcher EX theme - I'd look through those in the play store.
It’s still up in the air.
Go launcher ex with themed dock background.
I'm pretty sure it is this from the International SIII themes forum but I might be wrong.

Title says it all. I'm running the latest cm10 with the trebuchet stock launcher. Wanting a launcher that supports scrollable widgets while also having the persistent Google search bar ... any ideas which one will do this? Any free? Or will I have to buy my first app?

I use Nova. It has what you're looking for and its free unless you want the pro features, I also used apex for a long time, they are both really good. I feel nova is a little smoother

Oh boy. Tried nova. Didn't work for a scrollable widget I have. Holo did. But no persistent search. Holo HD had the search but no option to enable scrolling widgets. :banghead:

My apologies I've never used scrolling widgets so I didn't know it did not work. As far as battery I have never noticed any extra drain by using different launchers.

Until UKB and Viper I was using CM10 and Apex Launcher was my go-to. It's got the persistent search bar as an option and also used my scrollable calendar widget with it.
EDIT: It's also free with the option to buy, which gives you more customization.

+1 on apex. I have a calendar widget that scrolls and it offers the persistent search.
I'm using the photo contacts widget and it won't work w apex. If you look on the market it says adw, go, etc ... any launcher that supports scrollable widgets. So should I assume the widget is at fault? Is there an option to enable it in apex that I'm missing?
Any of you guys have suggestions on a good contacts widget? I like the photo contacts one and have used it since day 1 but maybe its time to move on....

I haven't used it, so it's hard to say, but they don't specifically mention nova or apex. Wish I could be more helpful.
I've used nova, apex, and go, and I always seem to go back to trebuchet, I hardly ever use Widgets so its the cleanest launcher for me

Yes indeed... version 1.3.3.7.... see what they did there? LoL... I haven't used it yet though... I'm sure it's great, ADW was always my launcher when on gingerbread or CM7... wonder how it mixes with CM9 or 10....

Sure.
Not a big fan of the pop up menu in the new ADW. Would like to see it as optional. Also the transitions are a bit choppy even with some speed tweaks. Those were the only things I have noticed off the bat. I plan on playing with it more but will probably revert to Nova pending future ADW EX updates.

I'm using scrollable widgets on nova.
I'm confused as why you guys cannot maybe because I am prime?

So this is not my theme or mod, props go to our friends at Motorola and the Razr Series of phones. I love thier Circle Widget so I found away to install the whole launcher from the Razr Series on ANY rom so they claim, I am running Rooted CleanRom 4.6 and a custom theme and Saber Kernel and I could not get the messaging apk and motoemail apk to work but I am just using my stock ones.
Also I would rather just have the Circle Widget by itself but couldn't get it to work without the homelauncher.apk if anyone knows of away please let me know.
Here's some screenshots and the installation instructions

No that widget is not the same as in it is not interactive like the real one, it does not 'flip' the circles to show the additional features. It is a good visual copy though

Hey guys, I just stepped up to the 4 from the 3 and I love the widget. However, it looks like crap with most wallpapers. I've seen several transparent ones in the home screen pics, can someone please give me the link? I'm not a newbie, I searched..Lol. Seems you need to be rooted to use the ones I found. I store I wasn't gonna root this one... it's only a matter if time though...Lol! Thanks in advance.

As far as a transparent TW weather widget, I don't think that one's possible. One alternative that looks pretty close is "Transparent Clock & Weather" from the play store.
Without root, try beautiful widgets from play store. The tw one is from evilart (wicked roms), and its for rooted phones.
