Hi everyone, I am on toolrom, touchwiz rom on galaxy tab pro 12.2. I have 3 news widgets on my touchwiz home. When I click on them, nothing happens. I am assuming that the full news article is supposed to pop up in a separate browser. Could someone help me out? Or at least tell me what is supposed to happen when I click on the widgets? BTW I do not have the stock touchwiz browser installed in the rom, but I doubt that's the issue. Maybe it's something that I've frozen? I've already looked through the frozen list and nothings seems relevant. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Is there anyway to get the samsung program monitor apk to work on a rooted nexus 4glte. I have root explorer and have tried to add it but when i try to install it it says not installed. I'm thinking the apk needs to be modded or has a Rom conflict. I have no idea though any help or if anyone knows how to add it please post. I have added the apk that i took from my galaxy tab 10.1 if anyone knows how to mod it ~thanks~

Most Samsung apps require the TouchWiz interface APIs. More than likely until someone decides to port TouchWiz in its entirety(I.e. a ROM), it won't work no matter what you do.

? I wish i was more verse in Roms. It seems it should be an easier method but thxs for the response..
Hi all,
I just had two questions relating to the Galaxy Nexus which I bought a couple of days ago
1. When I receive a text or email, on my old Galaxys S2 it used to have a number next to the icon. For example if two people had text me, the number two would show up next to the text message icon informing me. This doesn't appear to be happening on my Galaxy Nexus. Is that normal?
2. One of my favourite widgets on the Galaxy S2 was the Mini Paper widget. I've got the .APK for it, but it doesn't seem to install on the Galaxy Nexus. Does anyone know how this widget can be installed?
Hope someone can help me out
1. That is part of touchwiz, the Samsung equivalent of Sense on HTC devices. The Galaxy Nexus is a pure Google experience device, but you can find widgets on the Android Market that will give you badges for SMS/Email.
2. That APK might need the touchwiz framework to work, no idea though.

Thanks for the reply ZeroBarrier.
Regarding the first question, I just wanted to make sure that this was universal to all Galaxy Nexus' and not just mine LOL. Strange how this feature doesn't exist though as I thought it was very useful on my S2.
Regarding the second question, if anyone does know how to get the Mini Paper widget working on the Nexus Galaxy, please let me know
Regarding the Mini Paper widget, have you tried ColorNotes from the market? Not EXACTLY the same but gets the job done

I've tried ColorNotes but didn't really like it to be honest mate. The S2's Mini Paper
I feel is the best quick note taking widget out there. Everytime I try installing it, the process just fails
Surely there must be a way to make it work? It's only a small widget LOL

So it's not possible at all then to get this widget ported over to the Nexus?
I heard somewhere that Touchwiz widgets require the Touchwiz framework.
*cough*
The same goes for Sense widgets, Blur widgets, and any other manufacturer-UI widgets.
I accidentally deleted TouchWiz Home and I'm pretty sure I also deleted TwWallpaperChooser. Can someone send me an apk? I'm running Jelly Bean 4.1.2. This is my first thread so I hope I posted it in the right section.
Anybody?
Does anybody have it? If not, does anybody know a good launcher that shows unread counts for apps like KakaoTalk?
EDIT: Never mind, got it back. Close this thread or whatever.
So I installed hyperdrive rom onto my device. Im able to get the tiled news feed on it like I had before updating and rooting the rom. I is missing the local stuff i get personal,news and social now. But after looking at the video below its not incorporated the full magazine ux interface I'm seeing. I was wondering of all the custom roms is there one that incorporates the full magazine ux where when you pinch it it acts like the note tab pro model. I can get out of the news by hitting the home button but thats it. Im a semi newbie so if the question makes no sense I'm sorry for asking. Thanks

Can someone please check their Widget list and see if the stock messaging/ SMS widget is there. For some reason mine is missing, i use nova launcher and thought that maybe the issue, but its not there in stock launcher either.
Thanks.
I don't use it but I just tried to set a widget and it doesn't appear in my list of widgets.
What the heck. The widget used to be there for me on my S9. Can someone else confirm if they see it or not also. It makes Bo since why it would be removed. On my work phone galaxy S6. It is working as usual.

Same reason they removed image resizing from the photo editing app, replaced "keep screen off in a dark place such as pocket or bag" with "touch is disabled in a dark place", screen will now happily come on and stay on though... and other dumb changes that make no sense
At a guess for the messages widget, stats probably showed it wasn't used much but who knows with Samsung
anyone get a previous version working? i really miss a widget..

Use a different SMS app that contains a widget?
Android Messages has widgets and is a much better app in my opinion.
i really like to keep my phone minimalist with no extra apps unless i have too.. also it's nice having one that respects the theming engine of the phone.

Then there's no reason to even buy a high end phone especially with Samsung's less than stellar apps. Just my opinion, but like a**holes, everybody has one.

The widget is gone for me also. Happened when I updated the Google Android Messages app on Google play store yesterday. I've tried to uninstall and reinstall the Google SMS app several times which was not stock on my phone, have cleared my phone's cache a from the safe mode screen, and also cannot find the SMS widget for stock messages app or Facebook Messenger.

After toying around on and off all day, I found an older version of the Google Android Messages app that works and has the widget. I do not promote installing apps from unverified sources outside if the Google Play Store as it can be a risk to your device. Here is the application that I found to be working:
