I think people just hate touchwiz JUST to hate touchwiz. Honestly, there is nothing wrong with the TW calendar app. I actually prefer to use the TW calender widget
i was hoping stock calender would let me "tap" at, say, 9:30 and set that as my starting time for an event so that I didnt have to tap at 9, edit the starting time to 9:30, edit the ending time to 4:30, and THEN save. Its just a couple less clicks, but its about the efficiency of the matter. Also, the default brown-ish color scheme is horrid.

I actually LIKE TouchWiz, believe it or not (more than Vanilla since owning an S3), but I don't like the calendar. The Widgets are pretty cool, I'll admit, but the app itself feels cluttered and sluggish.

What widgets, functionalities, and/or apps is lost from touchwiz by using nova or apex launcher?
I use nova, haven't noticed any features missing.

The only thing I haven't figured out how to do with Apex that I can with TouchWiz launcher is change the wallpaper of both the home and lock screens. Can it be done?
Yes, just go to security I believe. The options are at the top.

Well technically touchwhiz is still running even when you install a third party launcher so you shouldn't be missing any built in functions like smart stay, direct call, etc. I haven't noticed any functionality loss due to installing Nova at all.
Thanks for the input. What about widgets. Coming from Sense, a lot of widgets were lost when I used a third party launcher.
I use apex.... And yes you loose the touchwiz widgets. There were only a few from what I remember as I hated touchwiz after 3 days, it wastes so much screen relistate. So you loose the touchwiz calendar, email, clock, and photo widgets..... I'm just going off memory though there might be more.

The only thing I miss is being able to organize my app drawer into folders. I have yet to find anything with
APEX that allows me to do that. But there may be something out there to accommodate folders, but I'm not aware of it. If anyone does know or if it's built in, please let me know!

you don't lose the clock widget...
On Jelly Bean, what you lose is the ability to just toss items off the homescreen. You physically have to drag items to the "x" to remove them. You also lose the auto organizer feature when you drag widgets around.

For some reason in apex, it makes my widgets 5x(X) even though they're normally 4x(X)

While you can't do that in Apex Launcher (as of the time I am writing this), you can always go to Settings->Wallpaper (It will be under the device category) to change the lockscreen/homescreen/homescreen&lockscreen wallpapers.
Using Apex or Nova also does not allow the badge functionality you have on touch wiz. You know, the little red icons when you have a missed call or email message. It's a bummer as I do like this function; however, Nova is super awesome due to its gesture function.

Nova Prime ($4 in play store) has "Drawer Groups". I have all my apps categorized into communication, games, multimedia, shopping, and system tools. Those folders show up at the top of the drawer, and all the un-categorized apps show up below it.
I think it's still not as good as the ADW Launcher that was built into CM7 that I was using on my DroidX. With that I could make shortcuts on my home screen to an individual category, so the kids could easily get to games and only games.

I like the weather widget. I tried like 4 different launchers and it was not available on any of them. If anyone can figure how to make it work in nova or any of the other launchers, I'll switch over from touchwiz.

Hello all
I am using official ICS on the SGH-T989 and have it rooted (so good to remove all the bloat) But one question, I prefer how Apex Launcher works and feels but anyways to use the calender widget on it?
I know it works well with touchwiz (I suppose that's the name of stock/official launcer) but I cant seem to add it on Apex )
Thanks for the help!
In razr, the motoblur calendar widget works fine with apex...

None of the ones I've tried from there work either. I don't see the point in the fancy Apex ui if I can't actually use it.

really brah? I use APW calendar with Apex and have no issues at all
For some reason, the Calendar widgets that come with the application are missing in ADW Launcher. The only one that shows up is the simple Calendar widget that lists the upcoming events. They other 2 missing ones are the tan color full calendar and mini calendar.
Is it that they are only meant for Touchwiz? What can I do to get them in ADW?
Thanks in Advance!

I had the same thing happen when I started using Apex launcher. Lost the whole calendar widget. Hope someone can tell us how to get it back.

You can try Business Calendar by Appgenix. It has several widget options, although not as nice looking as the TW calendar widget.

you have to try with stock calendar from google..

I use Jorte for my calendar widget and have the Samsung calender shortcut on the desktop next to it.

Tw calendar is based on tw launcher we can't add it on any other launcher. It sucks but thats life. Ps for the future please for the sake of god!!!!! When we get cm10 we can't get any tw features. . Just fyi.. not say your doing this just hate seeing threads and post for the same thing..
But yeah even the weather and clock widget cant be added.. you can find other things to make it look cool. Its just built into the framework

Hi there, I realised that the s-planner widget will not work on other launchers apart from Touchwiz, is there a way to port it over so that it can be used freely on other launchers? its such a great app+widget combo, only lacks alternative launcher support... :crying::crying:
I'm very new to this, any form of guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
I also really want this. There are no other widgets that show the whole monthh with the actual appointments showing.

Wizz Widget only shows the current month, so when you're towards the end of the month you can't look at the next month.
Hey gang, After loading different roms I noticed that most of them don't have calendar apps and then I'm forced to install one from the market. I love the GS3 stock calendar app and wish to have this on my rooted GS3. I'm running MIUI rom and I miss the stock GS3 widget. Is there a way to port this as an app so I can use it on any rom?
Its a touch wiz app
If you want it you need a tw ROM

I know, I was just hoping that somebody can port it. I chose MIUI because just about every rom out there is JB and I love it but I want something different on occasion. thats why I pick MIUI for a break from those JB ui's. I go back to stock once in a while because I miss those sharp looking widgets and smooth looking ui
I'm sure you would feel differently if you tried Business Calendar. It's very good. I like it mainly because of the awesome widget control, which other calendar apps are lacking.
Business calendar can also update to google calendar as well and the new version can be configured to look just like the stock calendar.
