Anyway of using Samsung Widgets with Launcher Pro Home? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, so I'm using Launcher Pro Plus as my default home launcher and want to use a Samsung Widget.like Feeds and Updates or Daily Briefing. Any way to do this? They don't show up under Widgets when using Launcher Pro! Any help would be great! Thanks a million!

I too would love to use the Samsung widgets on LauncherPro but currently I don't think there's any way to make that happen.

If you use any Froyo based ROM, it should show up under widgets. If your on Eclair, it won't show up cause Samsung put them in their own category.

This is not true. To date there is no known way to make this work.... would be nice though. I havent used TW or the samsung widgets since July 2010, ha.

ADW Themes

I mentioned ADW Themes in the ADW EX Thread, and it was not noticed.... figured with others trying out ADW I may not be alone here.
What ADW themes / Icon packs do you guys recommend?
If you could post screen shots that would be amazing. I am a recent newly convert from LPP to ADW.EX. Still debating which is going to be my daily driver... thought being able to change the look easily would be nice.

I too would like to see what some good looking theme packs look like. I toyed with the new ADW Launcher Ex, but wasn't impressed with what I saw. Maybe if there were some Gingerbread ADW themes, it might cause me to leave Launcher Pro Plus.
Anyone have any screenshots of their current ADW setup?
^ there are several Gingerbread themes...
I want something like Black Froyo, ha.
ADW With carbon3 theme + some custom icons
mines pretty simple,the one i use most is ubuntu because of the clean look,but also buff and iron man themes are cool,hopefully they come out with more
Try creative black, I like it a lot

I'm using ADW Blue theme, if you do a market search for ADW it's one of the first free ones on top. A, while back on another thread someone posted a screen shot of blueberry theme but I didn't get it because it was paid but now I want it I can't find it.

Yep! Vibrant. I'm currently running axura but you can do it with any rom, even stock. You have to use metamorhp.
Try fluxed on the market. It has a large number of icons. And it automatically replaces your icon when you apply it.try it its awesomely fantastic!!
2nd android7 theme
Those two are my favorites. Cant insert pngs sorry cant show you the screenshots

Best launcher to use on the Atrix?

I found go launcher ex to be the fastest ...
I don't believe this belongs in development.

I have to give ADW love... Have used all. Go Launcher was my favorite until I got ADW.. Launcher Pro is nice as well, but ADW is all-around better for my needs. I would suggest trying all three with Home Switcher and see which one you like the best.
Adwex all the way. By far the best with the most options

Here is what I've found with launchers
Most graphic effects and home screen customization: Regina Launcher
Lightest most efficient most customizable options : Launcher Pro and/or ADW
Best themed launcher: Launcher7
other good launchers: Sony Xperia Arc Launcher ($1.99), honeycomb launcher (a lot of bugs but very nice otherwise), and SPB Shell 3D Launcher ($14.99, I think).
Hope this helps I have personally tested all of these launcher and currently have all but the SPB launcher installed

I don't know if they've fixed it yet, but I found that Go Launcher was causing my internal sdcard to get wiped at least daily. As soon as I uninstalled it, the wiping stopped.
I moved to LauncherPro and haven't looked back since.
Im a fan of go launcher ex but now I Luke the stock launcher in alien rom

I find all are laggy at least on some occasions, which is slightly disappointing considering the hardware.

I've never had that happen with either Go Launcher or LauncherPro - however, I also don't use much in the way of widgets. If someone uses a lot of them, there may be no way around some occasional lag, no matter what launcher you use.
I'm currently using Go Launcher. It's running more stable than ADW for me.

Stock se launcher

Is there a way to add more homescreens to the latest stock SE launcher.
If not can you recommend a good launcher that allows more homescreens and also allows SE widgets such as timescape to run on it.
I have used spb in the past and loved it but it won't allow timescape on it

[Q] Sense Clock On CM7

Hey guys, I just recently switched over to CM7 and i'm missing my clock. Is there any known way to install the clock widget into CM7 or do i have to buy beautiful widgets. This kind of bothers me, but other than that, i'm loving CM7!
There is no known way to get that clock in CM7. What I do to get it is use Fancy widgets with the HC7 Clock skin. Cannot tell the difference between the two, but the problem is I think you need the paid version of Fancy Widgets to do this (Got mine for free through the amazon app store).
Toasty's right. You need the Sense framework to get the clock working. I mean its possible, but improbable.
Fancy Widgets got rid of the paid one so just get that and you'll br good

ICS lock screen

Hey guys im just wondering is there anyway to put the ICS lock screen on Bionix 1.3.1??? And if its possible can you direct me how to???
Thanks
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
MiLocker is an option that gives you multiple options including ICS.
Widget locker and Golocker from the market?
That's the best I got without having to flash a random ICS theme. If you're looking for a full on theme you can search the "Themes and Apps" thread.
Good luck
Bionix is 2.2, have to be on 2.3 or higher for mii locker. Your only option would be to code it in yourself since bionix is no longer supported
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
If your using the Go Launcher EX you could use Go Locker and download the ICS theme for it. Or you could try Widget Locker, which I believe has an ICS theme as well.
Edit: However, just a suggestion, if you're one who likes to really customize your phone (one week you love an ICS themed phone, the next a Gingerbread theme) you should look into miui. It allows you to customize everything from the status bar to the lock screen all within a themes app easily.
