Long time user, been quite some time since I last used APW though

Needless to say, I was very pleased to see APW being worked on again. However I was disappointed when I installed it and set the 4x4 FB widget on my Note 3, because the scrolling is so choppy I simply cannot bring myself to use it whatsoever.

Is this a known issue, and something that can be resolved? For example Tapatalk scrollable widget is butter, APW is like trying to rev an engine with only one working spark plug. Hoping for the best
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:
That seems odd. I don't have any engine problems, err, I mean scrolling problems with my FB widget. I use the same sized one (actually resized it to fit the screen via Nova launcher) and it scrolls just fine on my Droid Maxx on 4.4.

Anyone else experiencing widgets not loading after a reboot? It says, "Problem loading widget" and I have to remove it, add it again and then restore preferences.

I'm experiencing it maybe 20% of the time after I reboot. It occurs only with the Calendar (5x5), but not the Bookmarks or People widgets. I don't think I could do a logcat since it is happens after a reboot.

Has anyone noticed that Touchdown calender functionality is gone from the calender widget? That was the biggest reason I loved the widget is because it could display both my regular Google calenders and also read Touchdown calender from my phone. But seems to have disappeared all of a sudden and I can't RE add.

I LOVE the fact that the FB Widget now allows your own posts to appear on the News posts. Thanks again for a great app!!!!!!!!!

Default appearance suggestion:

1. Theme: framed black

2. Transparency: 200

3. Use thin frame: disabled

You should try these settings. The first time I installed this program I was very close to uninstall it one minute later. But luckily I searched for themes first, although many uninstall it right away. The default theme is very, very ugly.

p.s. It's for your own good. DO IT! :)

p.s.2 The screenshots from the first and second post are ugly as hell too. Replace them right away!

proof:
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:
Just because you don't like something, doesn't make it ugly. I actually like the default skins, but I tweak them to look "just right" when combined with my background. The main reason this app rocks is due to the customization you get. If you don't like the default, you have the opportunity to change it which is much more than is available with many, many other apps.

Keep up the great work with these widgets. They are awesome!
[Android Apps and Games] quertiy:
I'm not saying that there aren't people who like the default skins, I'm saying there are many more that like my version, because of the resemblance with launcherpro widgets.
[Android Apps and Games] roee88:
quertiy

Amazing theme ;)

May I use your screenshots in the Market page?

But... just hypothetically assume creating a perfect default theme that is acceptable by everyone is possible. What would encourage the users to buy the license key so the development can continue?

Thant's our main selling point. Allowing the user to make it look exactly the way he wants. And this will only get better in time as more themes can be added.

As a side note,

We have added instructions for anyone who wants to create a new theme.
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:
As the developer states, you can't please all of the people all of the time. It's just not possible. As for resembling LP, this app does that and WAY more. With LP, you get the theme you get, period. With APW, you can tweak the frame, the level of transparency, etc. which makes it DIFFERENT and much BETTER! I saw another suggestion to make the thin frame the default, but you prefer the opposite. See my point?;)
[Android Apps and Games] quertiy:
That other suggestion was mine. I preferred thin because of the default theme, I didn't like the looks of it so I gave up to functionality. I of course know that it is impossible to make a theme that pleases everyone. I was suggesting to make a default theme that pleases as many as it is possible.

That's why apple is what it is. They think about what people like and give them exactly that, the problem being that they don't offer an alternative. Android does just that (offering an alternative) but the main problem of the platform is the "default appearance". It's easy to make android beautiful, but with root and a lot of work, and some hate the trouble of doing that, some don't care or don't bother or even don't know how. Those are the ones who see iOS and are mesmerized and switch to it.

I'm not saying that my default theme suggestion is the perfect one, I'm saying that the current is certainly not.

settings reset

For some reason the apw settings get reset after every reboot, and if I rotate my screen.

Then I have to hit the "tap to configure" box each time.

I am using android 4.2.2 on sprint samsung galaxy s4m.

Touchdown calendar issue

I've noticed this, too. It is the biggest reason why I used this widget as well. I sent an email to the developer, but haven't heard back.I hope that they find a way to get this feature working again. I am running a Nexus 5 with Cataclysm, but have also gone back to stock to try and see if there was an issue with the custom ROM; however, it was the same in both cases.
[Android Apps and Games] roee88:
A fixed version will be uploaded tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Annoying... I recently upgraded to Android 4.3. Hope that's not it.
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:
Do you mean the profile pics of your friends? Every so often I see issues with images. Try clearing the cache in the app's settings menu and log out then back in.

One thing I'm seeing lately is when someone posts an image and I click it, it used to open in a larger popup so I could see the image. Now, it's still a very small thumbnail and I need to open the browser to see it. I'm using the internal browser option within the app.

[Android Apps and Games] danial.aw:
I love this app but I feel the theme needs to be updated... You should definitely add in an Android L style theme and update the internal Facebook and Twitter views to be more visually pleasing... Functionality wise the app is best

I feel like the create new event button in the Calendar Widget should not create an all day event by default. It should act just like creating a new event in the Google Calendar app, which is to create a 1 hour event starting at the next closest hour. This behavior mimics what corporate users are used to with Outlook when you create a new appointment or meeting.

APW does not seem to work on Lollipop (Nexus 5, stock).

The timeline widget only displays one entry. When I use a custom theme, it FC's.

BTW, I'm the guy who made the Lucid and the Holo APW themes that are on the Play Store.
[Android Apps and Games] roee88:
Recognized your name immediately :)

I'm aware of the problem, trying to get a device w/ Lollipop rom so I could fix it (should have bought a Nexus).

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:
Long time no talk! (A sign of a smooth app!)

While you're at it, is it possible to have the internal browser open a larger sized image like in the past? What I mean is when I look through my Facebook widget and click on a post with an image, I used to be able to see the image in a decent size popup window. Now, however, it's very small and not viewable at all. I have to then open my browser to see if clearly.

[Android Apps and Games] sonnysekhon:
Glad to hear!

I'll make a free Lollipop Material theme for APW as well.
[Android Apps and Games] roee88:
I attached a test apk to address the issues reported above.

[MENTION=2977675]mahercs[/MENTION]

It should display original image size now (and display profile pictures on the comments list which was broken).

[MENTION=2847101]sonnysekhon[/MENTION]

I used the emulator so I couldn't test it properly but I implemented one compatibility fix and one temporary workaround.

Boring details: It seems like in L the size attribute of nested xml shape drawables is ignored. That means a proper fix would require changes in most themes (not an option). For now I've set the list divider height to be fixed 1dp so on most themes list view widgets should work well. I haven't tested the grid widgets yet but guess there are some glitches there as well.

Oh and a Material theme by sonnysekhon sounds awesome!
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:
Thanks for the quick turnaround. I installed the test apk, over the existing one and I keep getting a message that APW has crashed. The widget I had disappears and just shows a "LOADING" message where the widget should be. I tried to remove it and re-add the widget, but same thing. I am still on 4.4.4. I even tried to uninstall the original apk, and installed this new one - same results.
[Android Apps and Games] sonnysekhon:
Thanks but unfortunately the same thing happened to me as did to [MENTION=2977675]mahercs[/MENTION].

I'm on stock 5.0 (Nexus 5).
[Android Apps and Games] roee88:
Sorry, the apk was completely broken (bad export)

I've edited the post with a new apk if anyone is interested in early adoption before I test it with L device (only tested on LG G2 4.4.2).
[Android Apps and Games] jazzespresso:
this needs a huge upgrade, considering everything looks so honeycomb UI, and many (apps) are already moved on to material design...
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:
Sweet! Seems to be working. Images and profile pics look good!:laugh:

[Android Apps and Games] sonnysekhon:
Great! Thanks for the quick response. It works fine and the built in themes play nice. But my themes break it.

[Android Apps and Games] roee88:

[Android Apps and Games] xuohtx:
Working great for me as well, using a custom theme (192 White by Locus Design)

Looking forward to a Material theme.
[Android Apps and Games] wrecknoble:
The new APK seems to be working great on my Nexus 5 with stock Lollipop (flashed from factory image) and Nova Launcher.

Lucid theme is broken, that was easily my favourite theme so I hope there's an update soon.

In the meantime I'm using 192C Black theme and it works ok, except that the grid lines in the Bookmarks widget (list view) are too prominent when you reduce transparency (whereas in the Calendar [also list view], the grid lines adjust transparency properly).

Looking forward to more updates to this app, it's become essential to the daily use of my phone!
[Android Apps and Games] :
I installed it on my 2013 Nexus 7 with a new Lollipop build and it completely fixed the weird spacing issue.

I'm running the APW "Modern ICS Dark" theme. The only (very minor) complaint is that the separators between the tweets now are bright white which is a little distracting since the text is also bright white. That's just a minor cosmetic issue, though, functionally the widget is fixed!

Thanks for the prompt attention to this issue.
[Android Apps and Games] soufixoo:
Looks great

Looks great... I would definitely buy if there was a Whatsapp widget though. Can this be added at some point?
[Android Apps and Games] sonnysekhon:
Sure, here you go, I just use apktool to decompile/recompile it.
[Android Apps and Games] wrayan:
Thanks for the quick fix, works like a charm. N5 on LRX21O, theme "192 White". Tested widgets: People, Bookmarks, Facebook, Twitter.
[Android Apps and Games] roee88:
To fix your theme change the top level layouts in base_widget_frame.xml and base_widget_frame_thin xml to not use style and use explicit layout_width and layout_height attributes instead. Example:

Replace:

<RelativeLayout android:layout_gravity="center" android:id="@id/base_widget_frame" android:padding="@dimen/widget_frame_padding" android:focusable="true" android:hapticFeedbackEnabled="false" [COLOR="Red"]style="@style/Layout.V.FF"[/COLOR]

With:

<RelativeLayout android:layout_gravity="center" android:id="@+id/base_widget_frame" android:padding="@dimen/widget_frame_padding" android:focusable="true" android:hapticFeedbackEnabled="false" [COLOR="green"]android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_width="fill_parent"[/COLOR]

Is this really a final Lollipop build? what a shame.
[Android Apps and Games] sonnysekhon:
Thanks a lot! That fixed it. No, this wasn't the lollipop theme, it's just my old theme Lucid. I will make a brand new Lollipop theme very soon.

Is there any way to add the following images to the themes?
[Android Apps and Games] roee88:
I meant the Lollipop build of android you are running (and shame on Google), not the theme! :)

As for the images, no they are not supported on themes (note that current branch is in feature freeze mode so I can't add this feature to it).
[Android Apps and Games] Piemo:
Hi, I'm using APW since a lot of time, especially the people widget.

In later build (of Android and APW too) it seems that there are a couple of issues: (lately I use only people widget)

-call log order seems not working in L releases

-often the contacts images are greyed out (like a non photo) or turns grey after a bunch of hours of correct work

-the scroll of people widget is very laggish (I use it with 5x11 tab) only images and no names

-UI is stuck on Android 4.0

Are there any WIP updates going on? It would be great to keep this updated, I think this widget collection is above everyone on the Store... if only it gets some more updates. :D

POSSIBLE IDEAS:

-make people tiles resizable (3-4-5-6 per line?)

-people tiles changable in aspect (triangle, square, circle)

Hi, I've been using the bookmarks widget on my Note 3 and it's been great. I have it sorted by last visit so whenever I view a bookmark on my desktop it shows at the top of the bookmarks widget.

I recently switched to a Note 4 and the last visit sorting doesn't seem to work. If I visit a bookmark on my Note 4 it does move to the top of the widget, but nothing I visit from the desktop affects the widget. Do you know why this would be?
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:
[MENTION=3342337]roee88[/MENTION], seems like Facebook screwed up and messed with the way things display in the feed. For example, if I post a comment or image, every time someone comments on it, APW shows it as a new post in the widget with the note that so-and-so commented on this, then displays the whole post again. Previously, to see multiple comments, I'd click the post I wanted to see, and comments appear underneath. Now, I'm getting blasted with repeat posts for each comment. Is there anything you can do to have it revert back to the way it was, or do we have to just deal with more Facebook stupidity?

Sent via Turbo!
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:
Here's a screenshot of the error that now appears when clicking someone's post in order to read the comments. As stated before, one post is now appearing repeatedly in the widget whenever a new comment is left, but you can never read them...

Hi,

Apart from changes to the API Facebook are making serious changes in their policy. In particular from April 30 no 3rd party app will be allowed to access the news feed at all (see read_stream in https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/permissions/v2.2):

We changed our plans accordingly, I can't share here what we are trying to develop in order to bypass it.
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:

[Android Apps and Games] brute-coder:
aRE THESE RESIZABLE ?
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:
You're asking if the widgets in this app are resizeable? Have you tried to install the app to look? Each of the available widgets comes in a variety of sizes, so you likely don't need to resize them. Also, your launcher may allow that regardless of the widget. I use Nova Prime, and I can resize anything I want on my homescreen, but again, the APW widgets come in so many sizes, it may not be needed.

[Android Apps and Games] sTl2yk3l2:
Me too, I emailed the developer like a month ago. I got no response. The templates on the site haven't been updated in like over 2 years. I'm temporarily pulling all my apw themes till I figure out the issue. I don't know if it's with the main apw app or the theme template. The only turned that work age the ones that come with the app. All the ones I tried from the market didn't work, same as my themes.
[Android Apps and Games] mahercs:
Sooooo? About the secret changes you were planning? The Facebook widget is currently useless and I'm not finding much of a reason to keep APW at this point if that's not going to happen.
