Widgets look different - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Hi I just rooted and installed carbonrom. My widgets all look a little smaller than I remember, and my google calendar widget's color scheme is different than the stock rom. What is going on, and any ideas how to get my widgets back to normal?

Carbon is AOSP based it has none of the stock touchwiz widgets

I like to break stuff!

Is the google calendar widget on touchwiz not an aosp widget? Im not talking about the tw grid calendar widget. There's an agenda view google calendar widget that looks different on aosp than it did on touchwiz. At least the color scheme of the widget (not my colored calendar items) looks different. It's not a big deal, I was just curious. This widget, along with gtasks, hd widgets, and others all look smaller. Could this be because the search bar is now permanent and is taking up real estate?

Different roms are themed different. I actually expect nothing on an aosp rom to look like the tw ones

Calendar and Weather widgets for ADW Launcher

I looked through a bunch of threads dealing with this and wasn't really satisfied, so I figured I'd just ask
I switched to ADW and I like it, except I miss HTC clock and the calendar (month view) widgets.
The things that resemble those the closest seem to be Beautiful Widgets for weather, and Pure Grid for calendar.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks.

cm6 i need more widgets!!

i like cm6 the best but having barely any funtional widgets like a nice calendar widget or anything drives me nuts. Any widget packs or anything that have nice widgets. Currently i only have beautiful widgets but its only just a clock and some switches
Beautiful Widgets, Switcher Pro, CalWidget, Android Agenda Widget.
LauncherPro has a built in calendar app if you want to have a sense looking calendar.
You could run launcher pro plus, comes with sense like contacts and calendar widgets.
Hey... I think this thing makes phone calls too!

Maybe u can try Pure Grid calendar, rather similar but paid app
For weather widgets, I was a huge fan of Fancy Widgets home weather widget. But just because GoSMS was included in Darky's ROM, I went with that team's GOWeather just out of interest. And I love it. Much simpler (without calendar and clock features), but the UI is fantastic, especially with the innovative forecast videos and slide up forecasts. And the homsecreen widget is different but cool. Give it a whirl

Stock calendar with nova launcher?

I love the stock touchwiz calendar widget that shows the full month with actual text on the days. Ever since I switched to nova, I can only access the calendar widget that comes with stock android. Is there a way to get touchwiz Widgets with nova?
Same problem here.

I also was dissapointed the touchwiz calendar widget was missing. The best compromise I came up with was to have it activated by double tapping the home screen.
Meeeeeeeh
I looked at a couple of other launchers and they don't have the TouchWiz calendar either - just the default. That full month widget must be something created specifically for TouchWiz like how some launchers have unique widgets to them. Might want to email the dev and see if they can extract the TouchWiz full month widget or create a similar one.
Give Calendar Pad a try it also shows text for appointments on Month Widget, only issue I have is it isn't optimized for tablets but works great on phones.

[REQ] Month Calendar Widget

Is it possible to have the Touchwiz Calendar running on Apex or Nova? Or anything like it, like a themed one. I like a calendar witch shows the entire days of the month, I don't need it to show appointments because I already have the Google Calendar widget doing a good job. Do you guys have any suggestions? Thanks
I use Pure Grid Calendar Widget.
