Xperia Tablet Z Launcher on XTS - Widgets not working - Sony Tablet S

The title says it all. I installed the home.apk from the latest system dump available and the launcher works nice apart from the widget function which says, in every single widget no matter how small or big, that there isn't space on the screen (even though it is empty). Anybody know why and how to bypass this? Thanks

Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, it doesn't since the icons on the menu are very blurry and everything doesn't look as smooth and defined as on the XTZ launcher. If no one knows why the widgets don't work I'll have to wait for someone's port (maybe ra3al's?) of the xperia TABLET z launcher.

Head over to the Xperia Tablet Z forum and download the system dump. Look for Home.apk - works fine.
Not got a link. Sorry.

Already did that SWFlyerUK, as I told on the original post. The widgets don't work (installed the home.apk from the System Dump 10.1.C.0.344) as it says that there's no space on the screen even though it is empty. Do you have another suggestion?

copy the home.apk und paste with root und rw permission in the system/app folder ... this is no problem the orgina xts launcher under 4.4.1 iss launcher2.apk not a conflict

can someone post the home.apk i really want to try the new laucnher

XTZ - Launcher APK
Here iss the Home.apk from XTZ
Copy the Home.apk in system/app and set the correct permission 644

Xperia S Launcher and Apps Leaked (Download)

We got Hands on APKs from Xperia S including Launcher, some Widgets, Calendar and Music App and others.
you can find the download in our thread Here: http://www.pocketpc.ch/sony-xperia-s/155451-home-launcher-widgets-xperia-s-geleaked.html
--> Google Translate
Included are:
Home.apk - S Home Xperia launcher
SemcMusic.apk - Xperia ™ s music player
SemcCalendar.apk - Xperia S calendar app (slight changes to the Arc calendar, unfortunately, is not 100% liquid)
livewallpaperearth.apk - Animated 3D globe as live wallpaper, with the moon
WidgetPicker.apk - required if you want to use one of the widgets clock or OnOff
ClockWidget.apk - new clocks for Homescreen
MusicWidget.apk - new widget for the music player
PhotoWidget.apk - beautiful animated photo widget, smooth
OnOffTools.apk - new widget with shortcuts (see screens of Marc)
WeatherWidget.apk - new and veeery very nice animated weather widget, liquid completely
unzip folder and start INSTALL.CMD
Should you install something from the package you don't want to simply delete the associated APK, the script then reports an error and just skips the Part
UNINSTALL: if one of the apps you no longer want to have, you can then simply uninstall the application manager of Android (Updates Uninstall). After that as usual the original version for disposal.

Mine was fine,and I can select any music as a melody for call from Setting-Sound menu.You have to delete the older one completely,I mean you should delete the older one with the ROOT EXPLORER or something like that.

Calendar widget in Xperia S style (Gingerbread only)

I am using Xperia S ROM for arc but there is no calendar widget inside
so i made my own based on the one from stock rom
and here it is
this widget probably won't work on ICS (from my experience)
To install, either
Code:
adb push widgetcalendar.apk /system/app
adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/widgetcalendar.apk
or
Copy widgetcalendar.apk to /system
Modify permission to 644

I did actually make thread about this a few months ago

yeah I know but the thread no longer exist. furthermore the GB ARC timescape widget doesn't show the sender name or number when ported to Xperia S but in this ICS ARC timescape widget it is shown, hurraaayyyy :laugh: ( just wanna share it )
Is this compatible with xperia u?
It should, as long as your on ICS
Which APKs did you install to get the classic Timescape widget? Is root required?
Yes root needed,
1. First remove all stock eventstream & timescape using titanium backup
2. Copy these file (attached) to system/app
2. Set permission to rw r r

Is it only the widget or the whole Timescape app. I love the Timescape app from the Arc S. I use an Xperia P and my version is useless
@Mythusme
With that apks you have SMS log on the Timescape???
Cauz I think that is missing an apk there for messaging or stuff
Good stuff thanks I always liked the stuff that was on the arc 2.3.4 Rom it was the best the music widget with the glitter!, the transparent blue theme with silver type buttons!, the old photo widget! Simply amazing stuff. They just ****ed up on the 4.0 software ugly and laggy even the new photo widget takes time to load the pictures while scrolling!.... Well but thanks anyways for this please try to port more stuff like the old music ,photo widget and the classic theme and I will try my best to donate!!

Worked for me only when using event stream for telephony, messaging and call log, of course the arc widget, everything else from stock Xperia U ROM, cleared data for all, rebooted cleared cache and dalvik-cache, otherwise force close or event streams wouldn't load.
I still dont get names in the widget..

[7/03] Xperia i1/Honami Themed Home and Clock Widgets

Home.apk is based off Xperia Home 5.1.S.0.0. Themed to (somewhat) match the style of the Xperia i1's launcher.
ClockWidgets.apk is based off Clocks 1.0.A.0.26. Themed to match the Xperia i1's Clock Widgets.
Download the zip in the attachments below and flash in CWM.
Credit to ZeroInfinity for providing the Honami Home and other files! Look for more on his thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2339632
Please don't take these mods without my permission! PM me first before you include in your ROMs.

The Folder background is different right?, I saw different home_folder_folder.png in xhdpi and hdpi, the one on hdpi seem to be the old one since Xperia T's launcher.
Anyway since this is just a themed launcher of an old home launcher ver which work for ICS (5.1.S.0.0), some bugs like theme option force close or some icon in appdrawer occasionally become unpressable and slow down transition speed still persist right?

Nice find, didn't see that the first time. I'll edit it for hdpi.
And yes, there are still the same bugs that persisted in the original version.
Updated with new folder design (thanks palkia 171993) and couple other tweaks. Download is now attached to OP. Includes files necessary to make the apk work if you haven't used the Xperia Z Home before.

New Clock Widgets!
Updated ClockWidgets.apk to match the Honami clocks:
The second hand on the analog clock, numbers on the digital clock and dots on the binary clock will all change depending on what accent (SemcGenericUxpRes.apk) you have installed. The fonts in the zip are required for the plain (white) digital clock. Only small bug is that the app icon for the widget is not the correct icon, but it shouldn't matter because you won't see it anyway.
