Hello,
I was wondering if there's a way to install the Magazine UX Widgets of the stock launcher,
in other launchers like Nova or the Google Now Launcher.
The widgets imho are great looking, but the stock launcher is really bad.
Thanks in advance.
I'm wondering the same thing I don't find the magazine ux to be all that bad, I just hate the stock launcher. Hope someone else can chime in on this as well.

Hey there, i'm wondering if anyone knows of a way to completely disable the dock in 4.0. I want to tinker around with layout ideas but can't do much with this dumb dock in the way. I'd like to be able to put a widget or two down there.
Any pointers?
Nova launcher or Apex launcher.

Sorry. Thought nova launcher did. Im using Apex launcher right now and it has an option to hide it completely.

Also what is your current choice of launcher? I am using go launcher and its enjoyable so far! Thanks for your help and feedback!
Try Widgetlocker, and I like Apex Launcher and Holo Launcher.

Nopers. Settled with HD Widgets instead.
which one would you recommend? pro and con of each?
i really like touchwiz annimation when opening up app drawer. And the touchwiz widget
i tried apex on s3 and it was smooth but it doesnt include the touchwidget widget like the calender month and the weather widget
is there a way to get the touchwiz widget on apex or nova?

Nova and apex are almost the same but it has gesture support, wider range grid and has support for icon packs to change the looks of icons and no. No touchwiz widget on third party launchers

I used nova over stock, never used apex. However when sliding between homescreens there would ALWAYS be a lag upon the first swipe to a not yet visited screen, which bothered me a lot but eventually decided to just root and flash a cm10 based rom. Still would prefer nova over touchwiz, especially allowing the ability to modify the transition speed, makes it feel much snappier. Apex may have the same settings though.
Apex vs Touchwiz Power Consumption
From My Power Consumption statistics:
Apex Launcher
Time of display on: 20m Time of CPU in use 9s
Touchwiz home
Time of display on: 28m Time of CPU in use 4s
Apperently, Apex consumes much more battery accourding these stats.

You could get Google's calendar widget, which is as good or better than Touchwiz'. Also you could get fancy widgets for weather, or weatherbug, or accuweather.
I'm using Holo launcher by the way. I think there's not too much difference between any of them.
I use Nova, works great. Never used Apex so I cant say. Touchwiz is okay but I dont really like it.

I use Apex. I just need a grid that's at least 6 tall by 5 wide.
I tried Nova, too, and they are indeed almost the same. Nova did some things better but I switched back to Nova because of the app drawer - infinite scrolling within a tab. It was just too annoying to not have it with Nova.

Since S2 i am on apex. Never thought of looking another option .
For widgets there are alot of options in play store.
I use Xperia more smooth to me second favourite is nova consume less battery to the others

Hi
I just recive my LG G3, really cool phone, but i got some little freeze on the stock launcher, so i download Nova Launcher.
And i can't use stock widgets like weather, music app, diary...
It's really annoying, can we do something ?
Thanks
Nobody know ?
You cant.
Stock widgets work only in stock launcher.
Yes, it's a shame that you can't but it's true. You'll have to find alternatives. I use nova as well and I have all the widgets I need.
Maybe someone here can offer an alternative to the one you're looking for. What widget do you use?
For example I use the LG Music app or the weather/clock widget who is very cool. On a other launcher we loose the LG design who I really like !
