Does anyone else only have one sms widget style available?
I really liked the idea of having one looking like the calendar, news, or mail widget (dark see-throug background), but figured that, for some reason, HTC left it out.
But then, I saw this: (around the 1:43 mark)
Now, this is an EVO video, so maybe it's yet to be released for the Legend, or only available on higher-resolution devices... Anyone with any info?
Hi everyone! Im the developer of Moogly, a simple but useful todo list widget that started as a project for Honeycomb. The pr is after the break.
There have been reports that it doesnt work properly on some devices! If someone could be so kind as to try the Lite version and if it doesnt stretch properly, send me some screenshots and log files!
You can also post issues at the main thread:

Thanks in advance!

MOOGLY
A simple but powerful to do list widget designed to be customized. Now with auto-hiding buttons!
Features:
★ Multiple independent, scrollable widgets
★ Quick, dialog based entry
★ Tick to delete or mark complete
★ Widgets are optimized for Honeycomb
★ Predefined themes or total customization
★ RTL support
★ Custom image backgrounds
This widget was inspired by To Do List from HTC Sense - for some reason, they were the only ones to get it right.
Lite Market link - restricted to 8 entries and only one widget

I'm running a stock rooted 3.2 and I cant even find the widget after I installed it from the market.
I will try to re-Install but?
Try a reboot. It should help.
Working perfectly for me! Thanks, this is absolutely top class.
Updated. Added scrolling on honeycomb and hide complete tasks option.
Are hidden tasks working ok?
Any issues to report?
Is anyone having issues with the widget showing up in app widget picker after first install?

I however do like the buttons, they go with anything.
Any issues to report?
Hi guys. There will be a nice update for you tomorrow! Color coding and sorting!
Has anyone had a chance to do some testing?
Downloaded and installed Lite version just fine. Created several widgets in the widgets drawer like advertised.
Will work on it some more for you later today.
I can say, offhand, I do not like how it takes you back to the entire menu system when you want to enter a note. Would have been much nicer to just have the note window open.
But, if I have other things, I'll just PM you.

What entire menu system? You must be doing something wrong mate... clicking the plus icon will open the input dialog.
Also, please do not pm me. These threads exist so that others may benefit from my wisdom, it is the essence of the word forum.
Any issues with 0.9.1?
I've just bought the Galaxy Note (wonderful indeed!) and the lockscreen doesn't have the lower end shortcut to 4 different apps, as I saw in some video previews last month.
It was something very similar to HTC sense 3.0 to be clear. I have version JK4, did Samsung remove it in my version not to have any issue with HTC?!
Anyone else owning the GN can confirm the lockscreen has only the meteo widget and nothing more?! Anyone with the previous JK1 version can confirm the lockscreen had the shortcut feature??
I do really hope someone can extract it from the older firmware version, it would be great!
It was a very useful feature!
UPDATE: I saw in the video I wrote you about that the firmware version having the lockscreen shortcuts was an old JHA! I do really hope someone can dump it in order to extract the lockscreen!
I was just wondering about the same issue and I wanted to open my own thread for this as I see yours.
Maybe you should rename the thread title in "Starting apps from lockscreen" or something like that?
I really want to have these shotcuts on my homescreen to as I am changing from HTC Desire HD an I really miss the possibility to start application right there.
Of course I could use widget locker and something like that but I would prefer to have the original lockscreen.

I don't have the note yet (soon!), but I am pretty sure the lockscreen with the icons is only an Ice cream sandwich thing.
I have not seen any videos that mention this in the stock Note, nor does the manual mention it.

don't know if this will help or not, but doesn't Widgetlocker work on the note?

That's different.
Yes, you can put app icons and allow them to work.
But the advantage of the ICS method is that it is almost impossible for you to accidentally activate anything if you are say, trying to find your keys. I use widgetlocker but I disable interactions so I don't accidentally, say, call someone.

You can create multiple application sliders with Widgetlocker, too. It's not as elegant as the ICS or Sense implementations, but it does the same thing.

I'm talking about some previews I saw during Ifa back in September. It couldn't be icebreaker sandwich for sure, even because the os shown during those preview was gingerbread 2.3.5
Just look on you tube for galaxy note preview made at Ifa by, for instance, HdBlog and you'll know what I mean.
I got my Note a couple of days ago. I'm very happy with it: superb screen, as smooth as my SGS2, a lot more portable than expected
I also immediately noted the absence of these app shortcuts on the lock screen, and after trying every option in Touchwiz this feature seems indeed to have been removed in this version (N7000XXKJ4).
Has anyone tried to run the leaked KJ1 ROM, to see if it's activated there? Or did Samsung remove this utility indefinitely for patent-related reasons?
Look at beta of go locker. Ics style but still beta.
sent from my Galaxy Note via T*patalk

Of course I know about go l know about go locare or widget locker but I'd rather have the default system lockscreen already with shortcuts indeed!
I modified the starting post: the version having lockscreen shortcuts is JHA
Now I could be totally wrong here, but this is what I saw on the Tech News Today (TNT) video podcast.
Apple won a court case concerning a patent they have for the lock screen gesture/swipe action. Basically, they have a patent on the gesture for the lock screen where you start at a specific point "A" and swipe to another specific point "B"! So any other manufacturer or OS cannot have a gesture to unlock the screen where your finger has to Start at a specific point on the screen, and then End at another constant point on the screen, such as the way the iPhone unlocks.
That is why you now have to start (or place) your finger ANYWHERE on the screen, and drag or swipe to any arbitrary area on the screen to unlock it. There can't be any point 'A' to point 'B' gesture or swipe because it violates Apple's patent.
Notice that AFAIK it has only been the Manufacturer's Skins or UI/UX's that have implemented these gestures...e.g. Samsung Touchwiz, HTC Sense, etc.
I'm not sure, but I think that Apple's case was only against Samsung and "Touchwiz", so Google & its pure Android & ICS as well as HTC may be safe from this (for the time being)! In fact, I think this is the reason for the new lock screen gestures, and Face Unlock, in ICS!
Check out Tech News Today Video Podcast #358 starting at 22:50, or search on www.9to5mac.com
So just be aware that if you download any upcoming Stock or OTA manufacturer UX, Gingerbread, or even Froyo updates, you may lose your precious lockscreen shortcut gestures!!!
Does anyone else think the new clock looks absolutely hideous?!?! The bold text for the hours looks awful next to the minutes. Is there a way to have the old looking clock for 4.1 flashed? Is 4.2 any better than 4.1?
Maybe you should try this
Fixed 4.2 Clock Widget

OR the "HD Widget" that offers a bunch of amazing lockscreen clock widgets.

Thanks for this thread, the other 410 threads saying the exact same thing just wasn't cutting it.
Please have a look at my new app Now Cards for Zooper. I've used tsasker integration to make some of the widgets more unique - there's auto updating news widgets (more feeds will be made on request) and one which shows you your latest text message.
They're alongside calendar, weather, clock, etc. widgets. Take a look and make sure you read the description before you download. If you've got any problems, just post and let me know.
EDIT: The free version now contains a facebook widget too! (post 10 for pictures). This will stay as 4x1, but this, alongside a 4x2 and 4x3 will be coming to the paid version in the next few days
Paid version - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.est1994.zwskin.nowcards

Very cool idea, few questions.
Is this a "Google Now" replacement?
Its almost identical to "Goolge now" , whats the advantages of using Zooper and Tasker?
Could you add other buttons and functionality to the cards aswell?
- like say the incoming text card, can you add a reply button? that would pop up a reply text box etc?
- Or a card that has the ability to show current sound volumes? or the ability to change them from card?
- If you could add other app info like facebook (probably insane to get configured) it would be an awesome "Launcher" type of app etc.
Are you allowed to post links to paid apps on xda? Cant remember the rules (Current)
other than those, looking great! good luck.
Thanks for the support! Its kind of intended as a Now replacement, I love having Google now built into the Google launcher, but can't deal without any customizations, son its really intended for people with similar ideas.
Using Tasker gives a lot more options in terms of what can be displayed! Many things from the internet and almost any stat from your device can be displayed oince you combine the two - tasked is a lot more powerful than Zooper.
Unfortunately some if what what you're asking is still a little out of range. Things which involve interaction such as volume sliders or a functional reply box are not do-able from my app, however, you could create your own tasked scene and launch it as an OnTap action on the widget. I'd love to bundle this with the app my pself but I've found that Tasked scenes do not translate well across changes in screen size. I could definitely add one for current volumes though if you wanted? And anything else you might like? I will look into Facebook tomorrow, but its late here so I need some sleep!
And I'm not sure about posting paid links, I meant to double check the rules before posting but totally forgot! I didn't hear anything last time I did it though so fingers crossed
EDIT: I couldn't resist having a quick look - Facebook notifications can (and will) be made as a widget, but actual feeds cannot
These look great! But I am unclear as to when these show onscreen...are they always on widgets or just popup when info arrives? Thanks
They are all always on. Everything always has information to display! Are you asking more specifically about the Tasker widgets? If so, tasker collects information every 2 hours by default, with each collection gaining 5-7 stories (depending on provider). Only one story is 'given' to Zooper at a time, with the displayed story changing every 30 minutes.
I hope that answers your question?
I know this may not be exactly what you had in mind, but here's a Facebook widget I knocked up. There's also a 4x2, but that's just a shorter version of the large one. What do you think?

Looks great. Upon pressing it. Takes you right to Facebook?
To me flip book is annoying. But . I'm looking for a "sense" type of home page. You ever seen HTC sense home pages? If you could make the boxes a transparent black etc. Lol I love the Google now aspect, but their new material colors are... Not what I like. Lol but that's a great start. Smaller font perhaps.
Thanks for the feedback I thought about smaller fonts, but I wanted it wall to be readable at a glance and to follow Google as much as possible, but yes, clicking on the FB widget could take you straight to Facebook, but I've left all the shortcuts blank so you can pick where you want it to take you, possibly the notifications page directly?
If you send some HTC sense pics, maybe I'll think about making some wpof their widgets at some point too?
I decided to do a free version of this too - its got all the 4x1 widgets, but with none of the tasker integration or 4x2 widgets, so you can still get a good effect. Follow the link to grab it! Lasker
