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

Hi
I use weather bug elite 4x1 widget and have tried the met office app too, also 4x1. When you place the widgets they don't center to fill the whole width of the screen.
I'm using touchwiz but other launchers are the same. I'm guessing this is due to the hd resolution of the s3?
Will the application devs need to fix this to be 5x1 etc, or is it something that I can change?
Altering the columns and rows in the various launcher settings make no difference, or resizing the widget.

I have no problem with any widget on Nova launcher. Dunno about stock launcher. I belive the Weather Bug Elite widget is to blame for the odd behaviour. Have you tried other widgets?

Hmm, here's my scenario.
My standard widgets (battery, alarm, music) fit perfectly on the standard TW launcher. But after changing to Apex Launcher, the 3 widgets mentioned above does not fit anymore.
The content of the standard widgets are mis-aligned and cannot see everything. Have tried various settings in Apex launcher but could not resolve.
Anyone have similar issues?

Same here.
Yeah widgets don't fit as good in Apex but it's a small price to pay for what is the best launcher for ICS / Galaxy S3

Beg to differ. They're unusable - see the screenshot in the post above my last one. What use is that music widget?
My issue is that the widgets that displayed fine on my s2 don't on my s3. Met office etc.
Apex or touchwiz, they don't fit fully across the screen, leaving a gap.
If the stock widgets don't fit apex then surely that means they've messed about with standard widget sizes on the s3, or is it just because it's hd resolution?

I'm not having any problem with widgets fitting properly via Nova, all sit centre if that's where I put them, maybe it's just down to TouchWiz?
Apex Widget Size
I can confirm that I am having the same issue with regards to the widget size on Apex 1.2.5.
Its a shame as I would be using it in a heartbeat if this was fixed. I would even treat myself to the pro version as its so tidy.
No problems with nova.
Try resizing or tweaking grid size/margins?

I will try nova out and see if I like it
I still cant get those widgets to behave like they do under TW, even with messing around with all of the margins and the grid size. Its a shame as otherwise I would be using Apex full time
Experiencing the same problem. Apex Launcher Pro v1.2.5.
This worked for me. Since margins are on screen borders, when theyre large apex squeezes widgets while keeping all their sizes and some start overlapping. Making apex margins samller in settings made all widgets fit for me on sgs3. May depend on device though.

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?
I'm running RootBox Android version 4.2.1 and the cLock widget does not display my calendar or weather. I had the same problem with the same widget on another CM10.1 ROM. Am I missing something to enable it or is it just not working?

Read this thread and got it working on the lockscreen. Still doesn't show the weather or calendar on the homescreens though. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2078205

Long press the widget to edit, then drag it down to extend it. If you have the options of calendar/weather enabled it will show them.
Download dash clock widget. Cool app. Shows time(obviously), weather, calender,gmail, texts and twitter updates. You can set it to show whatever you like

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).
Has anyone figured out how to add the Google weather widget to the stock Huawei Home launcher?
When I try to add it it doesn't do anything. Works fine on other launcher like Nova or Evie.
I found a workaround, there is an app called Frog Weather in the app store that opens up Google weather.
Same function as the shortcut which Huawei home can't create for some reason!!
I always use the standard huawei weather widget.. Works great. What's the difference with Google widget?
Not a massive difference. I just like the Google weather app better than accuweather, that's all.
I am using "Another widget" you can download the app from the play store. It looks the same as the pixel 3 at a glance widget but has more functionality.

Long press on home screen and goto widget & select weather icon then you will get weather widget in home launcher.

Thanks for that but that doesn't seem to work for me on any Huawei phones. Somehow the launcher is preventing the widget from being created. But the Frog Weather app is a good workaround.
