Please post logcat output I'll fix it soon

May i know what device you use ?

Added Please donot Swipe Right in.active widgets

Long press the item u want to configure
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
The Swipe Right in active widgets has been replaced by long press in active widgets

Sorry i did not change the Strings
[Android Apps and Games] sparex:
Did try the app on trickdroid htc one but seems not to work.

When i choose chrome widget the app crashes. First it shows me the widget but when i click on it, it crashes.

I cant swipe to the right to get in to settings...

So the app is not working for me.
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Clicking on notification gets into settings

Please Read first

Swipe Right in Active Widgets has been replaced by long press on item in ACTIVE WIDGET only clicking on widgets is handled by widgets my app does not deals with this
[Android Apps and Games] Census Taker:
Very nice app. Working well so far and I have a couple of suggestions.

1) When loading, the laoding pop-up/toast clears and there is a wait whilst the app appears. Could a progress bar be added?

2) Would it be possible to set a temporary frame around a widget in the same way touchwiz does it for preview?

Any way thanks for a great app. :)
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Youre welcome :)

1. I am working on a widget picker itll soon be added and thus make the app independent of Stock Widget picker. This should solve this issue

2. Sounds a good idea but I ve never seen such a thing could you please give screenshot of touchwiz. It'd be of great help
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Updated the OP i guess it should be.less confusing now

and I apologise for replacing the swipe with Long Press without updating any texts

Sorry for giving trouble.
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
an option to resize in 1 dimension at a time would be really useful.

some widgets, like the Samsung music player widget, handle being resized in height really well, but need to keep the same width(screen width in portrait, half screen width in landscape)

once you've made your own widget picker, it might be an idea to put the 5 most recently used widgets at the top.

and perhaps you could make the settings screen floating too.

with a fullscreen settings screen, if you exit it with the back button it will jump to the homescreen instead of the app that was open before it.
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
One dimensional resizing really cool idea i'll work on it

Most recent ones i ll add this to picker along with an option to search installed widgets for easy availability

Settings screen I dont think popping it out is a good idea but ill make sure that on exiting it brings u back to last open app other than home screen
[Android Apps and Games] Stormwing:
Thanks for a cool app!

Maybe I'm not quite getting it but is there any way to toggle all widgets at once? I think what would be most useful is bring able to access and dismiss widgets from anywhere - basically like a floating homescreen just for widgets.

For example...

1.Open Widgets Everywhere.

2.Overlay of added widgets appear.

3.Manage/add/remove widgets via notification or whatever.

.

..check weather, play music, take notes, do widget things, etc.

...

???.Close everything with one button in the corner, resume what you were doing before.

Don't know if that's the accessibility you're going for, or if I have no idea what I'm talking about. Thanks anyway!
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
You're welcome

I guess you mean something like a small button sort of visible everywhere clicking on that shows up all the widgets you added and then hide all of them from there sounds like a great concept may be i can integrate this in future updates
[Android Apps and Games] arpit22x:
See the attached screenshot.... All the widgets are showing like this.... No option to resize.... On pacman rom.
[Android Apps and Games] Census Taker:
The yellow box with the large dots is the Touchwiz resizing frame. You drag the dots and they increase or decrease the size of the frame and the widget. Somehow it prevents distorting the widget size if you drag too far. I hope this helps!:)
[Android Apps and Games] Stormwing:
That, or when you open the app it brings up the widgets you've set up rather than the widget picker. (would work really nicely with PIE controls and gesture-based app launchers)

Or maybe when the widgets are visible you could have, say, an add widget button on the bottom left, close/hide button on the bottom right, and then settings in a notification or another button on the upper right or something.

Dunno, I've just been big on having everything floating and easily accessible as to not disrupt workflow. :p
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Pinch Zoom IN-OUT will resize it
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Thanks buddy i think i can add this feature
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Great IDEA

You'll surely get this in upcoming updates :thumbup: :)
[Android Apps and Games] yochananmarqos:
I've got a LG MyTouch e739 running CM 10. I'll post the logcat after work.
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
ok any time

But try reading OP n other posts it'll solve resize and HIDE/CLOSE problem

And some widgets have delayed startup thats due to widget itself they do some processing like Google Play widget
[Android Apps and Games] liorry:
Very nice!

We always welcome competition ;)
[Android Apps and Games] tsaxda:
tutorial?

This is a nice idea, but its not usable for me. The one widget that would be any value to me (as an overlay) circle battery widget can't be moved. It just doesn't respond. There also is no way to add or delete widgets beyond the first. If there is a way to do it please provide a tutorial. For now I'll stay with glovebox which does some of this.
[Android Apps and Games] davtse:
anyway to enable it over lockscreen? i'm sure this would be killer used with lockscreen notifications widget or dashclock, for those with phones that wont reach 4.2.2
[Android Apps and Games] simonsalo:
problem with security apps

I protect access to some apps using smart app protector. But there are other similar apps that do the same thing. That is when you go to open a protected app you are required to entered a password. If your widget app is running even if no widgets are visible it is forced closed when the smart app protector security screen is displayed.

Hi [MENTION=5106366]sak-venom1997[/MENTION],

One request, can you please keep updating the thread title with the latest version number and date of release. This will help users identify if a new version is available just by looking at the title.
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Thanks !

But Competition ????

In what way am I competing you ?
[Android Apps and Games] vagaerg:
Thanks!

The app is great. I use it mainly for the email widget, as well as Appy Geek (technology news). It works great on my Galaxy S4 with JB 4.2.2, but the only problem I've seen is that it does not let me move the floating widgets, but it does allow me to resize them. To move them you only have to hold them, right?

Thanks a lot for the app
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
You can add any number of widgets just click on the app icon in launcher itll launch the widget picker

To delete widgets tap the notification when widget is active

You'll end up in a configuration page. There long press the widget label not the widget and youll get Hide/Close options in ActionBar

It dosent respond as draging from center will click on widget

Drag the widgets from Bottom Right corner

If it still dosent move try enlarging it a bit and then drag
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Killer idea i know but android wont let me do that

However if you use a custom lockscreen it will work for you
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
I will download that app and test it right away thanks for report
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Ok i will do it For sure
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Drag them from bottom Right they'll move

If you still face difficulties I'll increase the width and height of drag handles in next update
[Android Apps and Games] karma167:
great

It needs some control of transparency. So I can hide it without hiding it. All in all. This is a great app.
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Transparency sure you'll get it sure

Thanks for feedback :)

Sorry the update is getting delayed i have less time these days and a custom app widget picker needs a lot of work i have no idea about this :p
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
SORRY ALL

A COUSTOM APPWIDGET PICKER IS NOT POSSIBLE WITHOUT ROOT SO YOU ARE NOT LIKELY TO SEE THIS FEATURE ONLY SYSTEM APPS CAN PICK APPWIDGETS

BUT GOOD NEWS IS THAT IT WILL GIVE ME MORE TIME TO WORK ON OTHER FEATURES :)

REGUARDS

[Android Apps and Games] Census Taker:
I apologise if this has been answered, but I can't find the answer searching or reading this thread. :confused:

When I reboot, I loose all of the settings in this app. How do I save them please?

I expect it has already been suggested, but if not, would it be possible to back up settings from within the app?

Thanks. :)

As one of the 'Big Handed And Clumsy Brigade' it would be great if you could increase the size of the handles!
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Unfortunately saving settings is not yet supported itll be added in upcoming builds

Size of drag handles will be made configurable in next version
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Can anyone who has been used to using the app for a while help me with the screen shots ??

Optionally a demo video too ?

I cant do it as I have 2.8" 240x320 120dpi device so all screenshots look blurry

Please post here if interested to help
[Android Apps and Games] LuiizFenix:
its a wonderfull app you made! congrats! just hoping the individual(height/width) resizing but amazing!

im using whatswidget with this app and its like having multiwindow on my lg e612g aka optimus l5 it awesome

great job

here some screenshots

edit: i tried doing the video but screencast was not working idk why :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Thank you
[Android Apps and Games] chrisdlc119:
Maybe the size problem have a relation with that I can't move it because it doesn't have a secure place (right bottom) to put the finger and drag him

Enviado desde mi LG-E610 usando Tapatalk 4 Beta
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
It ll surely be fixed in new build in 5-6 days
[Android Apps and Games] liorry:
Haha compete in a good way, check out my signature ;)
[Android Apps and Games] yochananmarqos:
Sorry, I said I'd post a logcat for you but did not. I beta test ROM's & apps constantly and this one slipped way down on the priority list. If you really want, I'll test every single widget I have while logcat is running, but I don't think you'd want to pore through that. Thing is, each widget does not react exactly the same way. For instance, I decided to try Power Control tonight. It was the right length, but I had to resize the height. Hiding it and re-opening it does not remember the painstaking efforts I made just to resize it--let alone find the magic 1 pixel somewhere that allowed me to move it by accident. I closed it, but could not find a way to re-open it even though it still was listed in "Active" Widgets. Sorry man, this is should be alpha 0.2.32 not beta 2.32. No offense intended, I like what it does, but I'm afraid I will not be testing this app any longer for now. Don't worry, I'll stumble back here & check out future versions.

^ Yep, I'm also an official member. :laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Sorry for the inconvinence caused mate

For the next build i have so far worked out on

*Changing the transparency of widgets

*Configuring widgets without the need to open the Config. via the notification(but you still need to open it to show a hidden widget) by touching the widget with two fingers

And still to work on the resizing problem and retention of wiget settings

Do you think it would be solving the above problems ?
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Sorry all for delay in update I am a little busy these days

Also i want to clear most if the issues with the app so I'm working.with a Designer and Themer i hope to clear the issues

Apologies for delay

Sorry frns :(
[Android Apps and Games] nikctsh:
Innovative, indeed that was a great start.

Have been trying on my phone, would suggest a few things:

a) Option to toggle each widget right from the notification bar without launching the configure interface, that would be much more convenient and useful

b) One-click hide and unhide all the widgets, also, right from the notification bar, or maybe from a floating button?

And I hope that it can load faster, but of course, since its still a beta app, so I'll follow the development of this app :) Cheers!
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
Im working on resizing options its new for me also I'm a little busy these days you will surely see all these and probably the Beta tag shall removed

Thank You for showing support

[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
try the new resize option is this what u expected
[Android Apps and Games] Census Taker:
I've been playing with Beta 2.5 for a while now and here are my observations:

1) It does a good job of making widgets available on all screens.

2) The resizing box is much better but I have two issues. Firstly, for me and my clumsy hands the handles are way too sensitive and secondly, as some widgets are small in their own right (for example, just one square of the grid,) the resizing buttons all bunch together. Could they be moved 'outside the box'? I've included a screenshot so you can see what I mean.

3) Could the 'accept' tick also be put outside the box top right?

4) I really have trouble with the double tap to reconfigure the widget. I mainly seem to trigger the action of the widget. Would it be possible to change this a for long press? Would it also be possible to 'illuminate' some sort of 'moving handle' at the same time so users can see where to grab when they want to move the widget? Sometimes I find it difficult to find the right place.

5) The biggest issue fo rme is not being able to save the set-up. I do beta testing for a number of the developers here and reboot my device two or three times a day as part of that. It really is a problem having to redo the widgets all over again.

I'm sorry; this comes over as a real 'ripe it apart piece' and I don't mean it that way. I hope these are constructive comments and observations that will help you make your idea a great success as I know a lot of hard work goes into these things. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:
hmm

double tap »» long press

low sensitivity of resize handles

better placement of handles

too small startups

move handles {with possibley an option to adjust placemnt like top bottom etc .} which shape you would prefer a bar or some point type like a cross

n most importantly the save configrations part

did i cover all points??

Thank you for precious feedbacks like these i dont have a device so its hard for me I totally rely on great people like you thanks a lot

ill try n fix all on this Sunday n air the improved one by Monday :)

Edit :

Did you try the minimize and transparency options?????

were they working well ??????
[Android Apps and Games] Census Taker:
Yes, you have all the points spot on!

The handle shapes you have now are just fine.

You really have surprised me though, when you say you don't have a device; it makes what you are doing here even more amazing! Well done!

I haven't been able to try the transparency or minimise yet; its the clumsy fingers issue, which the changes you are planning should fix and then I can really give them a go. Thanks for doing all this!
[Android Apps and Games] sak-venom1997:

tasker integration ??

could you please elaborate !
[Android Apps and Games] jadoe05:
Tasker is an app that let's you automate things on your Android devices. You can do things as simple as having your volume on silent whenever you walk into work or as complex as running a nandroid backup an restoring a different one. It has a bunch of different contexts that will trigger certain actions that you setup. There are a bunch of plug-ins that are made by developers. You should check it out.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Micoolef:
I think I'm starting to understand this flashing recovery thing, but it doesn't seem to be working.

So I have downloaded the latest CWM and TWRP for my device (crespo?) and put the .img in a folder. I've tried both CWM and TWRP separately to no avail. I put the mac-related fastboot and adb files into the same folder. I open the terminal and flash the .img. I would like. It runs and says 'OKAY'.

Now, when I power down > hold volumne up + power > it brings me to the 'FASTBOOT MODE". It shows me my lock state is unlocked and gives me the option to:

REBOOT BOOTLOADER

REBOOT

RECOVERY

POWER OFF

So I select RECOVERY and this is where it gets weird..

Reboots and brings me to a screen with the android guy lying down and a red caution triangle coming out of his chest. If I leave it, it will eventually reboot normally. If I hold the power and volume up button again for an extended duration (or some combination of buttons, i usually just hold random combinations until something pops up), then i get the 'android ssytem recovery <3e> screen. It looks like a minimal CWM recovery screen with Reboot system now, apply update from ADB, apply update from /sdcard, wipe data/factory reset, and wipe cache partition.

This doesn't seem like the CWM or TWRP that I flashed. It also won't let me flash a ROM when I select 'apply update from /sdcard'.

I'm pretty sure I'm not installing CWM properly.. but when I run the terminal (command prompt) it seems to run fine.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Micoolef:
SOLVED:

So I messed around and solved my problem. Apparently entering CWM recovery on the Nexus S is more challenging than it should be.

For those of you with the same problem, here is the solution:

Enter fastboot mode > connect your device > open your command prompt (terminal)

I would flash CWM to your phone first fastboot flash recovery <recovery.img>. When it finishes and tells you everything is okay, type:

fastboot boot <recovery.img>.

This will boot your phone into CWM recovery!
[HTC Desire X] RishiChhikkara:
i want to root my desire X, i want to know what all i need to do in order to take a full system backup to restore it again (if ever required for updates etc.), & also which Recovery is best for JB, i don't want to install any custom rom, i need root to run some apps....
[HTC Desire X] ReSkid:
1. Sync your Account to Google.

2. Install the 30 days trial of https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rerware.android.MyBackup&hl=en then after Rooting you can use Titanium Backup Free or Pro.

TWRP is good for JB.
[HTC Desire X] RishiChhikkara:
thanks for helping, it worked, one more question, do I need to take a complete backup (data+ system+ boot) everytime I flash a zip so that if anything goes wrong, I can restore, & also how can I remove a zip which I flashed, for eg. I flashed Xperia launcher, but its buggy, how can I remove it? I tried uninstalling it with Titanium backup but it shows up again after restart..
[HTC Desire X] ReSkid:
Its good to take Backups! :)

To remove Flashed Zips, Edit the Updater Script in the zip file and add the rm or rmdir command for the files that were added.

Check which all files were added and where. Remove them manually or use the updater script method I said above. :)
