Widget Locker on the PlayStore or a custom ROM.

I think he is referring to touchwiz lock screen shortcuts which isn't available on the nexus 4.

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

Watch on Widget

I can only get the watch on widget to work on the lock screen, not on thr the home screen. Can someone confirm they are having the same issue?

Using nova I have no option for the watchon widget. I got the notification drawer widget to appear but it disappeared after reboot.

Same here. That's really weird that they wouldn't have it as a home screen widget.

There's gotta be a bug then.. Makes no sense.

Surprised this isn't being discussed more. Also no homescreen widget in the GS4, only lock screen and notification panel

Maximized widget with swipe unlock

Hii guys..
I don't remember exactly which rom I saw this feature.. But it had the option to have either 5 ring shortcut in swipe unlock or 8 ring shortcut... And with the 5 ring shortcut you can have maximized widgets.. I know it can be done with widget locker.. Can someone please tell me which rom it was.. Is it possible with any other xposed mods.?

Okay I rephrase.. Is it possible to have maximized cronus clock in my lock screen along with swipe unlock???
