Launcher Pro widgets to ADW

I do not know if this is even possible. But is there a way to add Launcher Pro paid widgets to ADW launcher? I like ADW, but I also like Launcher Pro widgets...any ideas?
No, not possible. Maybe if Launcher Pro were Open Source then yes maybe it could be ported over.

Launcher probably vs go launcher

I've become pretty accustomed to launcher pro since i used to use it on my mt4g and now again since it was included with g-lite on my G2 but i have always been curious about go launcher... it looks like it has more customization options and features than launcher pro but i'm not sure and i don't necessarily feel like re doing all my launcher settings and stuff if go launcher sucks.
So does anyone use go launcher? Is it any better or different from launcher pro? Does it consume any more or less resources than launcher pro would probably be the biggest thing...
Thanks in advance.

theyre both pretty much the same now, launcher pro is still a bit ahead cause the widgets are kinda cooler
if you want less resources consumed and no lags at all use the stock launcher, it doesnt have customizations tho
You won't have to redo your Launcher Pro configuration/settings if you try Go Launcher. You can try/install as many launchers as you want. If you want to switch back to another launcher, you just need to clear defaults in Settings>Applications>Manage applications>(current launcher). Then press home, and pick the launcher that you want to switch to, and it will still be setup how you left it. Or use an app like Home Switcher for Foryo (works for Gingerbread, too). to make switching a bit faster.
It's can be use and all the same. With g-lite ROM i'm using GoLauncher, when i want i use Launcher7 - winphone7 launcher - with no problem

[req] touchwiz 5.0

its a good launcher i like it but some reasons i dont use it.
for ex some widgets do not work properly. they look not like on apex or nova launcher.
and not all the widgets can be resized.
can it be modified as such?

Remove Desktop ADW LAUNCHER CM7

Is this even possible?
I have read a wiki from adw but there is no such info there
the stuff that I want to do is that I dont want to have any desktop, when I press back I want to see the app launcher with all of its apps and when I unlock the phone I dont want to see the wallpaper/desktop I just want to have the app list
I know there are orhter launchers that can do so, but Is this possible with adw launcher?
ty
It isn't possible with ADW or ADW EX
You can install a launcher that offers this feature and delete ADW with an app like titanium
But i guess Miui would be better for you

Widget Disappearing on Alternate Launchers?

So I decided to upgrade to Soundhound plus, in large part because of the 1x1 ID Now widget. I can deploy this without issue when using the stock Touchwiz Launcher. For some strange reason, I cannot use it with other launchers, so far having tried Go Launcher and Nova Launcher. In each case, the widget list only shows the other (4x1, non-auto-start) Soundhound widget, not the ID Now one I want. This, of course, is an issue, because I want to make use of ID now, but I also really want to switch to a better launcher, one that will allow me to put more content on each homescreen.
Thoughts?
EDIT: A related problem: Pandora widget works in stock launcher but not Nova launcher.
Some widgets are only built for selected launchers. For example the AccuWeather widget only works on touchwiz launcher. And won't work if you use a third party launcher.

Try Apex Launcher it works perfectly for me. Never had one single problem with widgets on Apex Launcher yet.

This is exactly what I wound up doing. Loving Apex so far.

You can't find it in Go Launcher (and possibly others) because it's a "Shortcut" and not a widget. I have Go Launcher and ID Now is under Shortcuts .
