Crashing Nova Launcher & UCCW - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys,
I've got a Nexus 7 (2013) WiFi version which has been rooted and had Timurs kernel installed.
I've installed Nova Launcher and UCCW. I've used UCCW to create a widget but each time I select the UCCW widget and try and drop it on the launcher screen the whole tablet crashes and reboots, I've forced stop and cleared data on both the launchers and its still not working.
If I use a system widget or other widget like 1weather etc then its fine but any of the UCCW widgets fails
Can anyone help me please?

I have a workaround suggestion. Try Total Launcher. It is like the launcher version of UCCW, allowing the building of themes similarly to UCCW but with full launcher functionality. You could very easily recreate your current Nova theme and UCCW widget all in one app.
Sorry I can't tell you how to fix things to use Nova and uccw, but, hopefully this suggestion can get you by until you do get it solved. And who knows, maybe you'll like TL enough to keep using it (I certainly haven't found anything to even compete with it yet).

[Q] [Q} Problem with clock widgets

Hi all,
I just installed tajm and the digital clock widget by Maize, but I can't place either on my desktop at all. When I long press and go to add a widget, neither shows up in the list of available widgets.
I'm rooted, and running CM7 with Zeam launcher (although I switched back to ADW launcher just to be sure, and still had the same problem).
Are these Sense only widgets? Man, that would be a bummer...
bump...
Just wondering if anyone has any ideas!

Default weather widget and Nova Launcher

I just love the default weather widget for Samsung Galaxy S3. Problem is that when I change to Nova Launcher, the weather widget is not available from the widget list! What can I do to get the default weather widget in Nova Launcher? Must I switch to Apex or another launcher? :S
The default weather widget is part of Samsung's TouchWiz so when you change launchers you lose it. Going to another launcher other than Touchwiz will still not give you access to that widget.
You might try some of the widget programs like Beautiful Widgets in the market. They might have similar weather widgets. I know on my Rezound I use Beautiful Widgets for my HTC Sense style weather/clock when I run Nova.
Is there any way???? i need the weather widget in my apex launcher...

Doesn't look like it, I want the s planner widget but that too isn't available without touchwiz.

Yep, you only get the 'Calendar' widget.
The touchwiz widget apks are system apps. If some brilliant mind could pull them from system/app and (somehow) convert them to installable user apps, we would be able to use them with any launcher.
I'm not sure if this is even feasible...any takers;-)

Partially true…
On my Galaxy Tab P5100 with stock 4.1.2 and Nova launcher, the Accuweather widget was working flawleslly. It is a case, that it is partly a part of the system, because when pressed, it opens a full screen application...
Now, on 4.2.2 Nova can't pick it up anymore

That is inaccurate.
On my Galaxy Tab S2 the built-in Weather app used to provide both of its widgets to Nova Launcher without any problems: both the wide "clock & weather" widget and the small "weather only" widget were available in Nova. I had that classic Samsung's widget it on my screen in Nova for several years now. However, in my case just recently (around the beginning of November, I think) the wide "clock & weather" widget suddenly became unavailable in Nova Launcher.
The small "weather only" widget is still available in Nova Launcher though. When I switch to TouchWiz, I see two widgets under the built-in Weather app. But in Nova I see only one - the small one. This is a recent change.
I have no idea why "clock & weather" disappeared in Nova, but "widget is part of Samsung's TouchWiz" and "touchwiz widget apks are system apps" theories obvioulsy don't hold any water. Anyone?

UCCW Doesn't show up!

Hello xda members,
Recently I been tweaking my phone (theming it) but I'm stuck on adding a widget by long pressing/add widget but then the UCCW weren't there to be selected.
I'm currently on Android Gingerbread 2.3.6 with Holo Launcher, then tried multiple Launcher e.g ADW, GoLauncher, SSLauncher but none of them shows the UCCW Widget. I've wasted the whole day trying to find a solution but I give up and ask the good people here instead.
Any help would greatly ease my frustration.
Solved:
Move UCCW to phone memory and it finally shows up.

Homescreen refreshing problem

Hi to everyone, I just upgrade honor 7 with mm. I'm using nova launcher and I noticed that now all of my widget doesn't work well. For example clock doesn't work and the time doesn't go on. Can you help me? Thanks
just installed nova launcher (trial version) and clock works fine.....I am on B320...
I'm experiencing this too. Can see my clock widget and my real time at the top. Using Nova launcher with weather widget. Not sure is it due to marshmallow, or nova launcher or the widget itself.

When you unlock the phone the widget clock is synced with the phone´s clock. But if you maintain the screen on, as time goes by, the widget is not updated.
This happens with other phones and clocks/apps. Seems to be a "feature" and not a bug
Probably a energy or security restrain.
I fixed it going to advance setting in the app section and giving the permission to wake up the phone to keep running also when the screen is off To the widget. Now works fine

Having problems with widgets

I can't seem to find xiaomi signature clock widget on nova launcher :3
Maybe they've restricted the use of it on other launchers. Any idea how to get it on nova launcher?
Maybe a zooper skin or anything?
