Launcher Pro's Friend widget replacement - Nexus S General

I'm getting tired of LPP but I love that widget. Anyone knows of a good replacement?

Pure messenger widget works great, only thing you can not update your status both at the same time, last time I used it

This app is free and pretty new. It has a widget for Twitter/Facebook

How to reduce number of home screens

Yes OK another dumb question but I can't figure it out...

Get a new launcher. You can't edit the number of homescreens on the stock launcher.

SMS app options

Can anyone recommend a SMS text option app or service that might be on the 7 already I'm missing. Tired of doing the tiny brain thing switching back and forth with the phone. Thanks!

? Tablet Talk?
I use Google voice and I have it on the phone too so everything syncs nicely

What sucks though is the ics version of the calendar had a better widget. Not sure why they got rid of the month view..

I think that widget was a Motorola customization. The new widget is just like the one on the Nexus 7. I assume Motorola did away with the customization. I liked the ICS widget better too.

What are the best widgets?

Hey guys,
I've never owned a nexus phone and am struggling to find some decent widgets to fill my screens
Usually my phones come with a whole bunch of them, especially HTC with sense - I love their full screen size widgets.
Would love to see what you guys use.
Please share.
Thanks

I always go with Minimalist style with no eidgets other than a clock.
I use MinimalistText, UCCW, missedit!.

If you're coming from sense and want a clock/weather widget that similar to the sense one, use beautiful widgets
Uccw with moto blur clock, just cause I'm hooked on that style right now. Otherwise beautiful widgets, agenda widget, photo frame widget, stock bookmark widget, that's what i use on my phones.

This is such a waste of the N4's powerful ability to fill every screen full of widgets without any lag. You could've saved $300 and bought an entry-level.
Or you can have a super phone where its power is dedicated to function and steers away from fluff

Pure News Widget is good for RSS feeds and links with Google reader.

Are we only limited to certain google app widgets on the android 4.2 lockscreen? Wish we could add any widget on lock screen

I've always used Pure Grid Calendar for a few years, I like the 2009 theme

I prefer Boid because it uses a nice looking holo theme and has the smoothest scrolling of any Twitter app I have tried. A close second would be Plume.
Falcon pro, trust me, best twitter app EVER. Awesome Holo interface, fluid and every feature you can think of is there. And its free.

I have been bouncing between tweetcaster pro and plume and like them both.

Falcon pro is really nice in don't have much opinion because I use. Twiter more like a news feed and not a social platform
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I agree with Falcon pro, and easily my favorite, and just seems the most fluid, clean, and just beautiful.

Plume is a personal favorite. Multiple column in landscape is perfect for tablets. Always a solid experience for me, but I'm not really a "power" user. From what I've seen, a frequently updated app. Awesome on the phone as well. :thumbup:

Flipboard. Simple and clean design. One app for all news and updates.

I like Tweetcaster Pro myself but you have to pay for it. Try the free version and see if you like it...

I use dolphin bookmarks
Should switch to flipboard really.

Just installed Flipboard on my N7. Very nice way to view my twitter feed. Thanks for the tip!
twitter official app is the best
+1 for Falcon Pro, it's the only client that doesn't feel cheap to me... (Scrolling, and the UI in general)

falcon pro widget or android pro widgets twitter widget that's what I use
