Long press on an empty area of the screen and choose widgets.
that should let you select them.
Not the samsung ones just android

I can't even get the android ones to show up. Am I missing something?
Edit: never mind I do get the android ones.
They are part of touchwiz which you turned off. If someone was/is able to extract them from touchwiz that would be cool. But its all part of touchwiz launcher. Like htc sense. If anyone has pulled some of those I would like to have a few.

X2. I have an Evo and upon installing Launcher Pro I no longer have the ability to use Sense widgets in LP, but going back to Sense I can use them again.

Are you on cm6? sense?
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Install LauncherPro. It is a home replacement that is a substitute for sense. With it you will be able to adjust how many homescreens you want.
Will installing that kill my HTC Sense?
is there a way to do this on cm6 with adw?

it will not. it should be pretty easy to switch back to sense if you don't like how things are looking with launcherpro. Chances are, you'll never look back.

It wont kill the Sense integration with the phone, but it will kill the Sense widgets.

no problem man.
yea i know what you mean about missing the htc widgets, my gf felt the same thing about her aria too, until i set up her phone to look like this:

she really like it and didn't even think about weather anymore lol
if you really want that sense look, there are other widgets that can replicate the same thing... search for fancy widgets. BeautifulWidgets is also a good alternative.

that's what i did last night. installed LP over HTC Sense 2.2 Froyo. reduced the number of screens and i like LP because they add unread email notifications over the gmail app icon. it's cleaner and customizable.
Hiya guys, quick question.
Is there a way to have the Sense style preview (the one where you prress the home key & it shows you all the screens) on Stock 2.2? I'm rooted so it doesn't bother me if I have to flash something. Its the only feature of Sense I like
Thanks in advance

Just get a new launcher. I think Launcherpro and ADW Launcher have it default.

I don't want a new launcher though, I'm loving Stock Android. If its not available just let me know & I will live without, But if I can get it I would be in heaven!
I don't think there's a way to. However, you can set LauncherPro to look exactly like stock 2.2 in the settings.
I think is to pinch the on-screen will show that kind of screen, from the first n1 Rom I used.

Launcher Pro Plus has Friends widget,Facebook widget, messaging! Widgets and many more. That's what I'm using right now!

The problem with LauncherPro is that it cannot use the TouchWiz Widgets. LauncherPro doesn't have enough Widgets itself to be useful to me (not saying it's useless to anyone else).
Plus the paid version can't be put in the market and probably wouldn't have carrier billing available for it.
But like I said, the Samsung Widget provides the same function of those others.
Where do I get the samsung eidgets from

Hey guys, I found a nasty little bug that has made my epic unusable. Basically if you have all your home screen pages filled up and decide to create a shortcut of an app (in this case it was dolphin browser) from inside the app, Touch Wiz will crash no matter how many time you reboot the phone. All other programs work just fine, however touchwiz will without fail crash. I am trying to find a way around this without reflashing but it looks like that is my only option. Be warned everyone EB13 is not ready for prime time.
Edit: Found a quick work around, just install launcher pro from the market and hit the home button and switch your launcher to launcher pro. Now can anyone tell me how to switch back?
So why not use something other than tw? Why would you load up that many icons on 7 pages? Home Switcher from market...

I didnt I had 3 full pages. Also turns out even turning off touchwiz and switching back to it ruins it. Also not the appropriate place for this but isn't possible to add more homescreens to launcher pro. But thankyou for the advice.

Yes you can add screens to launcherpro by hitting (from launcherpro) menu>preferences>homescreen settngs. To fix touchwiz, hit menu>settings>applications>all, scroll down to TWlauncher cick it, and clear everything.

Sounds like a bug in Touchwiz, not Froyo.
Thank you XDA for helping me through what was pretty much me over reacting.
I would really urge you to play around with Launcher Pro for a while. Try the different settings and see what they all do. I can't imagine using Touchwiz now. I love the way launcherpro both looks and works.

Aug 31st... the first day I had my phone I moved to Launcher Pro and haven't looked back... not a single reason to use TW
Try hitting menu/settings/apps/manage apps/all.
Find twlauncher and clear data and cache. It will likely blow out anything you had on you screens but may allow you to use it again if that's what you are looking for.

TW is for folk who want their phone to feel more iOSish, and if that's what they want, meh. More power to 'em.
I used LP for a long time, but am giving Go Launcher a whirl these days. I kinda like it even more, but...
Ugh, Launcherpro has THE BEST agenda widget on Android. No free widget I've tried even comes close. Really frustrating.

Got my phone in august 31, moved to launcherpro sept 4, havent looked back either, its great, especially with the scrollable dock and all the customizations you can do!!
Meh - LP is pretty good but I suspect most people don't use most of the options, making it kind-of big. I haven't found a better option though. It's pretty darn good.
I use LauncherPro, and I have long since deleted both TouchWiz an the stock launcher from the /system/apps/ folder. It frees up a bit of space.

Yeah this is what I was going to suggest. It WILL delete all your settings related to the launcher.
Why fill your homescreens with apps anyway...talk about cludered ...

Pretty much I'm asking. Is there a launcher that is like adw and launcher pro but is compatible with sense widgets.
I've been looking but not finding.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
There isn't one. Sense, including the widgets, is proprietary to HTC and they are very quick to sue when it comes to their property. There are some skins available that make use of the google apps, calendar and music, that work well with LauncherPro. I've used Pure Music Widget by francois Deslanders and it has a nice transparent 4x4 widget.
Sad face...
Hmm I see the issue. No one would wanna do that work for free. Thx for quick response.

I've seen and tried some of the things you pointed out. But I guess I'm really just trying to make use of my sense rom. I'm using launcher pro and I love it but not being able to you the weather widget has always bugged me.

Beautiful Widgets has almost the exact same weather/clock widget as HTC, plus hundred of others to choose from. Only problem I ever had with it is it gets my location wrong sometimes.
Thx I've looked into beautiful widgets but I'm talking about the full screen weather widget the one with the forcast.
The reason I was asking was mainly because of the resizing of widgets in these launchers.

Yeah it only has a 4x1 weather widget which kind of sucks. Launcher Pro does allow resizing but it just keeps the same 4x1 widget and enlarges it to about 4x2 and it doesn't look good.
Cool so I just got done trying out the go weather app. Its not bad but I only really like it because of the live wallpaper.
But for that same reason It's not what I'm looking for. I do appreciate the idea. Oh well still looking.
I guess what I'm really looking for is that sense 4x4 forcast widget on one of my launcher pro screens. (I know not possible lol)

Hopefully they release their Sense SDK soon like they said they would.
Palmary Weather Pro is very close. I think it's a buck or 2 in the market. I love it.
