Calendar widget issue on lock screen - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hello
On 4.2 aosp odexed and rooted device.
The calendar widget from the stock calendar is showing up on the menu to add to the lock screen; and I can add it.
If i disable stock calendar and when I install calendar from Google play store, I don't see the widget on the lock screen menu.
Anybody else having this issue. Not sure if this is a bug but looks like it. The stand alone calendar should work properly.
Also if this should be in the q&a section then mod please move it.

Adding more and new widgets Galaxy Nexus

Dear All,
How can I add more and new widgets to the Galaxy Nexus,
There is no option for adding new and more widgets,
Thanks,
If you mean standard and installed widgets.
In the main app menu (app drawer) up the top is an apps tab and a widgets tab, press that. Or just continue scrolling right when you are at the end of your app list, it will enter widgets menu
Hope that helps

You should be able to, they are located with the stock widgets. What happens when you try to add them?
Using a custom ROM? Custom launcher?

Your new downloaded widgets are going to be in the Widget's section of the app drawer at the top, mixed in with the standard widgets. They will not appear anywhere else.

Best Widgets

What widgets look great on the Nexus 7? Please share your finds here. Cheers!

Widgetsoid2 widgets - very configurable, use background from your gallery for contacts.
Gasks - nice scrollable one for agenda and tasks.
N7 Player
Any Go Launcher shortcut - replace with any png image.
Excellent, thanks!
Does anyone know if there is a Whatsapp widget for counting unread messages?

I use HD Widgets for time and weather. I have the paid version. Not sure what the free one is like.

I use GO Launcher and GO Notifications for unread count. You have to search for the Go Notifications apk since the Play store says not compatible. I can confirm it works with Gmail and K9.

I have downloaded and installed the apk but I can find no sign of it anywhere. Could you tell me where to look for it? Thanks!
Edit: What I mean is that I don't get the option to open the file after install. Where did you find your apk?

I'm kind of partial to the widgets below:
Weathereye (having issues at the moment): http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.citc.weather&feature=nav_result#
Minimalistic Text: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.devmil.minimaltext&feature=search_result#
Flipboard: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flipboard.app&feature=search_result#
Power toggles: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.painless.pc&feature=search_result#
Simple Calendar: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anod.calendar&feature=search_result#
If you want to see what it looks like check the post your home screen thread here.
UCCW - most customizable clock/weather/whatever widget available, check XDA main Themes forum for UCCW thread with 100s of themes
Minimal Reader - for news
Jorte - for Calendar
I use AOKP so no need for power toggles since they are in the dropdown...
Beautiful widgets has a nice selection of weather widgets.
You talkin' to me? GO notify is part of the GO app. If you hit settings and scroll to the right, you'll see notifications (after you installed the apk), click it and lets you set notifications for various things. It's not an app or widget, but does show up in system apps list.

If only they would fix the dynamic sizing option in their 4x1 weather. Using it at the moment until weathereye gets sorted. /rant
Another vote for power toggles here. Works well with the default theme (appearance wise)

Looking for lock screen app to show my next calendar appointment

FYI - Device is not rooted
Widget locker will let you put a calendar widget on your lock screen.

I think I saw this option in the JB leak. Anyone confirm?

I use widget locked and place the minimalistic text widget for calendar
type R-blood
What are some other alternative locks screens I feel like Widget locker is just getting so lazy, They haven't updated the icons in forever!

I need one that only comes up when needed, not like the WL that stays there even if you don't have any calendar appointments.

[Q] S Planner?

Does the i317 have S Planner? I've done some searching and it looks like most people have this app, but I don't. I only have Calendar (with the green icon, which is the Samsung version, whereas the Google version is blue). I'm running stock 4.1.2 so I don't know why I have something different. I do have an Exchange Account added, but I can't imagine that would change the name of the app. Any ideas folks?
The whole reason I even started looking into this is I wanted a Tasks widget, which is missing from the version of Calendar I have. I only have widgets for Mini Today and Month.
Thanks guys!

Not sure what you are talking about. I have S planner and it has a green icon. I am running CleanRom 4.0.5 which is Android 4.1.2. S planner is the samsung calendar app with the green icon.
I don't have S Planner. I have Calendar instead. Do you have a Tasks widget? If so I'll switch to Cleanrom asap.

You you mean the s planner widget? That, I believe, is only available with Touchwiz launcher. I just downloaded another ROM to test out on my extra Note and it did have the S planner widget, which is basically the s planner calendar on the screen and they had an s planner widget that listed the day's activities.
There is a modification somewhere here to add the s planner widget but again, I believe you have to use the stock launcher.
