I have just got a new Galaxy S. Pressing the Menu key gives me an + button which when pressed gives me the option to add Samsung Widgets and Android Widgets.What're the differences between Samsung Widgets and Android Widgets?

Can you use the stock touchwiz widgets if you have Launcher pro Running? I kind of like the look of the scrollable people widget!

View 5 Replies View RelatedThe title kinda says it all. I know how to uninstall an app (press, hold and drag to garbage can), but, I can't figure out how to uninstall a widget. I can go the apps folder and try the press, hold and drag thing but the widget remains.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've had this phone for about 3 days and really like it.Today however I'm trying to customize my screen more, and find I can't add certain shortcuts or widgets.Basically any shortcut or widget that requires an extra step (like selecting which contact to put on) doesn't show up on the screen after the selection.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have tried several clock widgets but none keep time accurately. They are always behind the time on the task bar. I made sure that my task killer is not closing it. What else could be causing this. Please be gentle if it's an obvious fix. I'm a newbie with my first android phone.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently rooted my Epic 4G following this guide: joeykrim-SDX Permanent Root for Epic (and Verizon Fascinate).I then went ahead and removed some of the "bloatware" applications using this guide here: [GUIDE] How to Remove Pre-Installed Apps for FREE - xda-developers.I did successfully root my phone, and the applications I removed are no longer there, but now the shortcuts that can be placed in the Home (or any section) no longer remain after I shutdown the phone. Widgets and Folders on the other hand do get saved by the phone and remain after a reboot.Is there something that I may have removed that shouldn't have been? and if so is it easy to recover? Would a custom ROM fix this situation? Or is there a program that I can use to restore all the default applications (without un-rooting).
View 1 Replies View RelatedNot that they are any good but when you install a home replacement like launcher pro Samsung widgets are no longer an option. Anyone find a way to load them? Anyone care?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have installed a BT widget and a WiFi widget from the market that are each 1x1 so I could save some real estate on my homescreen in not having to use stock the power control widget that's 1x4. I do notice that on a reboot the 2 widgets appear as three dots for a few seconds before finally loading last, after all the thumbnails do on the home s screen.
My Q is, are the widgets something that are always running and using resources, albeit not a lot perhaps. How else do they compare to just using the slide down controls for BT and WiFi. They are redundant but faster than sliding and then tapping. Also these widgets change color, green for active, red for inactive, etc.
I love this but when I try to set what app opens when I tap the date it always just opens the calendar. Has anyone tried to change theirs or could you try and let me know if it works for you?
View 5 Replies View Related I just got this samsung galaxy s relay 4g. I've gone and disabled the really nasty stuff. But i'm left with one real remaining problem.
most programs that have a single icon widget, end up taking up 2 tiles vertically. some 2x1's end up taking up 2x2. Here's some examples:
The task killer icon, and juice plotter should be taking up one tile, and they're taking up two.
The battery status icon is taking up four tiles, and should only take up two.
So how do I address this?
I suppose the next question, is it sane to try to get the vanilla launcher on here? Or should I just wait for a full cyanogen release for it?
For some reason it shows 103 degrees no matter the time or location. The city changes and the low/high temps change but not the current temperature. Any else ran into this?

It took me 2.5 hours to get somewhere yesterday which should have been a fucking hour. What, if anything, will Sprint do? I have had this since Nov last year and I want to get rid of it.
Also, this morning, no GPS on or anything and was on charge all night, the battery went to 50 percent according to the battery widget in an HOUR.
Also, widgets being moved from 1 home screen to another while it's being used and without MY interaction.
Recently I installed BHMAN's 1.6 ROM without TW, and I'm having a problem where sometimes my clock widgets stop refreshing the time.
Now i've searched for this problem and usually the best solution to this is to delete any task managers installed, which I cannot because the task manager is embedded into Home++, so I'm thinking the only way to get rid of the task manager is to delete the whole Home++, correct? I'm using ADW launcher at the moment.
I'm new to Android application development and I'm currently experimenting with various UI ideas. In the image below, you can see a vertically scrolling list of horizontally scrolling galleries (and also textviews as you can see). I'm also doing some matrix and camera transformations which I will come to in a minute.
For the background of the list elements, I use green. Blue is the background of the galleries, and red is the background for the images. These are just for my benefit of learning.
The galleries being used are extended classes where I overrode the drawChild method to perform a canvas scale operation in order for the image closest to the center (width) to be larger than the others. The list view going vertically, I overrode the drawChild method and used the camera rotations from lack of depth dimension in the canvas functionality. The items in the list are scaled down and rotated relative to their position's proximity to the center (height).............
I created a Galaxy Tab emulator using these instructions: http://innovator.samsungmobile.com/galaxyTab.do
When I install my 4x2 widget on the emulator it displays like it does on a phone (full width, half the height). However I went to try it out on an actual device in Best Buy and there it displayed as if there is room for a 5th row and column. First of all, why is there this discrepancy? Second, how would I create a 5x5 widget?
