Apex Launcher

So, I believe this to be an Ion issue only, but I'm not totally sure. Upon changing my launcher to Apex, I can no longer access many of the widgets native to the Ion, such as the (extremely convenient) toggle buttons for WiFi/Bluetooth/NFC/Vibrate/etc, the default digital clock widget that is the first thing you see when you first start your shiny new Ion, and many others. Any help on getting these to work in Apex would be a godsend.
Note: I can still change to the Xperia Launcher and see all of the widgets perfectly fine, they're just not available to place from Apex.

Some widgets are native to the xperia launcher, try using power toggles from the market

It is the same with most of the launchers. Widgets from one launcher is not usable on the other. Nothing new.
These widgets are dependent on the launcher.
I miss the walkman widget when using another launcher, so sticking with xperia launcher.

The widgets are only compatibles with the "home xperia" original

Is it possible to unpack the apk and remove the dependencies for the home launcher?

Well, thanks for the help guys.

You could try using ported widgets that are not dependent but doubt there are very many and allot of them don't play very nice unless all Sony stuff is not in the build. I would not mess with it though as you could cause a big problem. Maybe in a few years we will get a unlocked boot haha

I miss the walkman widget.

Droid Razr HD Widgets on any launcher [SOLVED]

Does anyone know if there is an app or apk to get the Droid Razr circle clock widget to ANY launcher?

As for the official widget it is dependent on framework so very difficult probably more work than its worth

The official widget you can find it online. But ... Because of DCMA complaint from Motorola i don't advise anyone to share it.

Thanks Shiesh1, that works well - I'm using now and it looks great
Also, I found ones that you can download online (If they weren't already removed by Motorola) that only allow you to use it with Motorola's default launcher - which is crap.
Anyway, I'm going to work out how to mark this as solved! Thanks again for all your help.

What launcher are you guys using?

What's going on guys? Seeing as to how this phone is super fast and snappy, I thought I'd create the first "Themes and Apps" thread for the Razr M
Almost as soon as I got the phone, I downloaded and installed Go Launcher, Go sms, go calendar, go task, go note, and go switch because thats what I'm used to and those apps/widgets kick ass...
but I know that the "circles widget" is supposedly really cool and the stock launcher wasn't too bad...so I was wondering, what launchers are you guys having success/fun with? Go launcher runs super fast with all the animations and whatnot, so I can definitely imagine the other launchers probably run great too

Stock Moto Blur Jelly Bean launcher!!!

A lot of people are either running with apex or nova these days. IMO they're pretty similar except the fact that apex has gestures included for free (which is one of the main reasons people use it) while as nova does not have gestures included. IMO I thought Nova was a little snappier but that's just one guys opinion. I recently switched back to the stock launcher because I missed the circles widget. Plus I might upgrade to jellybean soon but I'm waiting because there was a couple articles online that said the official version might be released this week! Prolly not... but better to have hope than none at all lol.

I'm just addicted to themed icons, I think that's why I'm stuck on go launcher
Sent from my XT907 using xda app-developers app

Go launcher because of the themes also, but then went back to the stock because I also miss the circles widget.

I'm using Go Launcher also. Not really in love with the circle widgets, so that's no loss for me.

Personally, I'm not into themed icons at all. Or any theming for that matter. Prefer a stock (or close to) look. Using Nova Prime and the JB icon pack.

i know!! its so lame we cant use circles widget on 3rd party launchers.....itd be awesome if someone could create a hacked APK that if we sideloaded could let the widget be accessed by any app

+1 on hacked circle widget not a big fan of it personally, but good too have options
And I'm rooted on JB leak, debloated running blank all black lightning launcher with swipepad
Saves RAM saves battery works great no lock screen either

Nova Prime with JB leak. Pretty much installed that right away when I got the phone but I'm kind of curious to use the stock launcher, however I got Prime on sale and I love the gestures to add another 5 app launches from the dock.

I am using the razr m launcher in my inspire...

Hi,
I've just gone though the ROMS-CM 10 and Eclipse, but found that CM 10 has really bad speaker problems for incoming calls, which I could not, nor others users could not, work around. Although its the most interesting ROM and quite smooth, and allows for themes from Market. The Eclipse is very smooth and I think built better, but frankly boring. Neither of these allow for the Moto 3 rings, which I noticed nearly everyone in this string has missed or gone back to. Also, I'd hoped to be able to allow for the larger screen in a ROM, where the soft device tools at the bottom are eliminated (using changes in Build.Prop and the app: "Button Savior" as replacement-which is a fabulous app), and while CM 10 allows for their elimination, except for "menu" still the black area remains. Eclipse doesn't allow for this at all. Making the changes in Build.Prop works in CM 10 re: the screen but the speaker issue turned me away after awhile along with losing all notification alerts and signal strength meter.So back to stock moto and found that Nova launcher, with root, allows for, what seems, at least a %60 transparency on the bottom of the screen as well as the elimination of the top notification bar, but the alerts occur and incoming emails can be seen in the Lock screen-works well. So, I'm now back to stock w Nova, although the Moto 3 ring app cannot work on Nova.

Using Action Launcher. I love it.

Stock most of the time but occasionally Nova prime. If it weren't for the ugly Motorola icons I could probably live with the stock launcher all the time. One more clock widget free is certainly close enough to the circle widget to live with (except the text messages not showing up in it) on Nova and I enjoy the options of Nova but the stock launcher performs as good as any and is pretty close to stock android save the left most quick settings I could take or leave.

[Request] Flashable AOSP Status Bar Theme for Droid Razr M

I was searching internet (mainly google) for an AOSP like status bar theme for the Droid Razr M and all I can find is the theme for the Razr i which isn't compatible with the M, causes systemUI to stop working. I was wondering if anyone could create one, I'm sure others would love to have this theme as well. I'll upload the neccessary files if needed. I tried creating one myself but can't find anything to properly decompile the systemUI.apk as well as others.

Yeah i second it, I hate the status bar and lack of quick setting on the Razr M. I have done some editing of the system UI at one time and I have seen an article on creating your own quick setting panel but haven't had the motivation to sit and see if it would be possible for me to edit or not. I have been using xposed moduals to see if I can edit them that way which helped some but would like asop quick panel setting without a 3rd party app Ive been using.

An AOSP status bar icon theme has already been ported to the Razr i I was just hoping maybe someone could port it from that to the Razr M, they have the same display resolution it's just the Razr i's systemUI apk does not work at all on the M, trust me I've tried.

I'd also be interested in one of these. The Verizon signal icon is the one thing that keeps me from wanting to stick with a stock ROM.

I didn't pack it for Safestrap, didn't know you were locked. You could try...or move it manually and set permissions [0644].

Let's just say luckily I had a backup of my stock ROM (because it has the best battery life of all for some strange reason [but I digress]) also, do you think its possible to port this status bar theme to the Droid RAZR Maxx HD as well, that's another phone (locked bootloader as well[safestrap only :confused :] ) that doesn't have this theme yet. I still have the M but I'm selling it

9.30.1 Deodex

I'll test that when I have the time
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using XDA Free mobile app

I can't seem to install the deodexed theme without systemUI.apk not working on boot, so I used 7zip to transfer files from the theme apk and the stock one and it has a few small issues. When connected to WiFi and data is on, it reverts back to the 4g LTE icon that's stock, when there's no data traffic, the 4g icon is aosp but in the position of the 4g LTE with network traffic icons under it. I'll provide the screen shots in my next post

You need the /values folder.
Are the pics from the M or HD? If there from the HD, I assumed it used the same set of icons but I guess not. I'll look through it again.

Transform your old launcher to new.... :d

Even trebuchet is good. I am using it now and looks same as Google launcher but you can't swipe to Google now. Changing icons is easy on it as most of icon packs works with it. Also good scrolling types.[emoji3][emoji4]
