[Q] [SOLVED] LG widgets lost under go launcher - LG Optimus 2x

Hello,
I recently installed go launcher ex on my P990 and works like a charm.. However, when I try to add FM radio widget on my home screen, I' can't see the LG widgets section just like at LG Home. Is there any way to add LG widgets on my home screen?
Thanks in advance!

Maybeyou should install appwidgetpicker from the Android Market and you can position your widgets (LG also) in the homescreen.
Else you can google Home Selector and install the APK file.
I use appwidgetpicker....works very well
Hope this helps. Thanks

Thank you for your quick reply! can i find appwidgetpicker in android market?

Found it! And it worked just perfect... Thank you so much!

Help with Widgets

My NC is fully rooted and I have a bunch of apk's installed and working. My question is how do I get widgets to work ? When I long press on the home screen the only option I get is change wallpaper ?!? Please help ..
Also ... how do I move icons from my EXTRA desktop to the scrolling window at the bottom of the screen ?
Cheers
You need to install a Launcher....something like Launcher Pro or any of the others that have been confirmed to work.

What other launcher apps are there ? I have heard bad things about Launcher Pro ... ?
Thanks
Zeam is an option I've seen that looks pretty good. Apparently you wont have problems as long as you change your wallpaper while in landscape mode .
The official word from B&N is their home/launch doesn't support widgets.

ADW/Launcher pro and WIDGETS ISSUE

Hey guys if i install either Launcher pro or ADW home replacements everything seems fine works great.. However when I attemp to add a widget to the screen I can't seem to get that to work. For example if you long press on the desktop and the menu comes up for you to choose the widgets menu... once i click on the widgets menu nothing happens.. No list of widgets ever show up.... Has anyone figured out how to fix this? Therefore I get stuck using the stock Home screen....Help would be appreciated, thanks.

The S7 only allows widgets in the default home launcher. No others will work. I've tried.
If you have the $2.99 paid version of Launcher Pro you can add additional widgets from LP, but not the standard Android widgets. I'm kinda hoping they change this at some point.

Put appwidgetpicker in /system/apps. You'll need root explorer.

Go Launcher EX problems with Weather widgets !

Hi people! I am new here and i searched for solution in this and other forums for android but i didn't find nothing! Here is the problem:
Yesterday I installed GO launcher EX and i am very happy it's just so much beautiful than LG launcher (stock). Then i tried to import my Clock and weather (LG clock) to Go launcher and i couldn't, so decided to download other widget. I looked in forums and i found that Go weather, beautiful widgets and fancy widgets are very beautiful. So decidet to download them. Firstly i downloaded GO weather. Then i downloaded some skins for it (LG Skin and HTC Skin) and HD videos , Live wallpaper theme pack 1. I clicked on Apply and nothing happends i can't see difference and i dont have animation when i unlock my phone, even i cant see my skins (LG and HTC) and i am staying with stock.
Then decided to download fancy and beautiful widgets. Downloaded them both then downloaded animations for beautiful widgets then tried to use them. I clicked on advanced settings (beautiful widgets) then Unlock Animations and clicked on mark. It explains me how it can be annoying for some people and i click on continue, then apply and i go to my home screen. Then i lock and unlock my phone and i can't see any animations !!! Nothing happends. The same story with Fancy widgets i click on unlock animation and absolutly nothing happends. Then i gone back to my LG launcher and tried back my old LG widget and it works when i unlock phone i see clouds ... (or sun or snow..). Tryed to put beautiful widgets on my LG launcher but they still do nothing...
Please help me to launch some weather animations in my "GO Launcher"
(beautiful widgets version is 3.65 and it's downloaded from here: "filecrop . com" while fancy widgets are some cracked version which i downloaded from a bulgarian forum)
You should try appwidgetpicker (google it): with this you can use stock LG widgets in another launcher, especially weather one.
Omg you are comming on xda saying you are using pirated apps and want help to make them work? :O. Lolzzzzz. Mod will be happy to read you

Hi,
I'm trying to get some of my LG Widgets work under CM 7, but it doesn't work.
I placed them in /system/app/ but they aren't showing up in the Widget Picker and therefore I can't place them on my Homescreen.

But that's based on official LG v20M Gingerbread 2.3.4, isn't it? So I guess, he didn't had problems porting them.

How did you do that if i may ask ?
I've been looking for the weather/clock home widgets in particular for CM9. I've placed the apk in system/app and set permissions, and they do show up in the widget picker. The problem I have is that only the 2x2 weather widget is working, I receive 'error loading widget' when i place either the 4x2 or 4x3 widgets on my homesreen.
If anyone's still interested with this, you might wanna try Go Weather. Works like a charm.

i only know from a working LG keyboard under CM7!
it is need the transplant.
Tried Go weahter. Nice but not the same, LG UI" weather/clock looks much nicer
there is a go skin lg styla but widget of lg ui is better.

Nova Launcher Sideload Issue

I sideloaded Nova Launcher yesterday and was not happy with how it was performing. It would not allow me to use the stock digital clock widget saying "Problem loading Widget" when I went to add it to my home screen.
I am running 4.4.2 w/ Malladus 2.0.2
Thanks.
EDIT: I got the app to uninstall and i reinstalled it through Play. However, I still cannot get the clock Widget to work so Please if someone could help me with that. That would be great.
It also will not work in Apex or Google Now. It seems to be a widget problem.

The LG widgets only work on the LG Home, no way around that.
