[REQUEST] Haptic feedback on app drawer icon for our Xperia home launcher. - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Ok, is this even possible on our Xperia home launcher?
I just got used to other launchers wherein there's a haptic feedback whenever you press the app drawer icon. Our Xperia launcher is smoother than any other 3rd party launchers out there(that's why I prefer it) so it would be nice if this feature/mod can be integrated on our Xperia home launcher also. TIA.
Or if anybody can point me where to start, I'm willing to give this mod a try myself.

doubt it
No, there is no way. It's a Sony-proprietary widget.
If you want the widget yet still a launcher which is a little more customizable, get the modified Xperia Launcher which offers various additional settings and tweaks over the stock launcher.
thank you all.
thank you all.
Said nobody850ever
Don't say "thanks", use the "Thanks" button instead. Using the thanks button makes threads smaller and easier to read and also gives the one providing the help an increase in the "Thanks" meter. This also helps other users to make out if a certain member is probably right (high thanks meter) or just talking bull**** (low thanks meter).
What's up with the jerkish attitude? Cheer up ladies.

[Q] How to use sony widgets after freezing stock xperia home?

I decided to use another launcher in place of the stock xperia one
so I also froze it with rom toolbox
In this case some of Sony provided widgets e.g. weather, disappear from the widgets menu or list in the app drawer
Is it possible to recover them and make them usable with other launchers somehow?
Thanks a lot

Not as far as I know. I can't use them on Apex Launcher or Nova either (even without disabling the sony launcher).
You cannot use sony widgets on custom launchers

Same here with Next Launcher, but better sacrifice some widget than use the stock launcher which is very ugly.
There is a sony walkman widget in the playstore that I use with nova, it's not quite as pretty but gets the job done.

I haven't found one for the weather which I like but HD widgets is just as nice

I tried to make clear date on the home 3 launcher (launcher stock droid), but even that did not work
It will be one of my sets but I want the weather widget animated stock xperia but it does not work as long as you do not install the home xperia.
Some think of any solution?

Widgets on alternate launchers possible ??

Hello all- I recently watched a review of this phone and the reviewer showed that it was not possible to add widgets to the home screen of this phone while using an alternate launcher such as Nova, Apex, etc...
Is this true ? I am just looking for verification before I consider getting one of these.
Cheers, LL13- :good: :good:
Not true. I used Nova Launcher Prime and i can add widgets as i please.
You may not be able to add lenovo widgets unless u are using VibeUI's launcher. But all other widgets are working fine.

OK, Thank You alexkit....
The guy in the video must have had an issue with his phone. He was using Nova launcher and every time he tried to add a widget to his home screen he got a force close.
One more question if you dont mind !! (actually 2 questions LOL)
How are the selection of themes ? Can you customize themes like using icons from in another theme, etc... ?
Cheers, LL13- :good: :good: :good:
As per FeyoMX @ http://www.movilesdualsim.com/tema/...n-esto-te-interesa.99919/page-28#post-1058348
You need to copy the launcher directory into /system/priv-app/
And reboot.
Try this

I've found that on some ROMs if you don't add a widget with the stock launcher at least once it won't allow you to add a widget with Nova, if nova doesn't allow you to add widget switch back to the stock launcher for a second and add one, then switch back, see if that sorts it!

Home screen not rotating since Marshmallow update

So I updated my Xperia Z3+ today and noticed that the home screen does not rotate any more.
I looked in the home screen settings, but there is no such option, like it used to be on 5.0.1.
Am I just not seeing this option, or has Sony removed this feature?
No answer I see. I unfortunately found the same thing, and it really annoys me. I had to move to use Nova launcher so I could get it back, but unfortunately I don't find nova as good as the inbuilt one. The widget handling of nova on the xperia is terrible, and the standard app tray is not as good as the xperia one. I keep hoping there will be an update that fixes it.
I guess it is that sony sadly stopped implementing mag charging and docks for the z5 and later so just don't care. And honestly I can not understand why they stopped that. It is fantastic using your phone as a bedside clock / photo frame on a dock. If I lost my current XPeria, I'd probably just buy the same model again, not get one of the later ones. Or find a different brand that did support horizontal dock/charge.
EDIT: It looks like they have released a beta of it with it fixed, but apparently buggy:

Mobe @ haha very funny... Why you said Nova is not better than Stock launcher? I think you doesn't know the true features of nova or you don't know how to customize it.
