Re: FEWidgets v100b6 (Freeware)
 

I installed the b8 version of this and for some reason my widgets won't show up when I checked the widgets tab for my today screen. Anybody know why?

Re: FEWidgets v100b6 (Freeware)
 

this software runs on flash player 7. make sure you have it installed

Re: FEWidgets v100b6 (Freeware)
 

not working for me for some reason..... it wont display anything and active start by its self and my fone freezes up....... i tried istalling everything to my storage and then to my main memory but nothings working... any idea ????

Re: FEWidgets v100b6 (Freeware)
 

you are only using the widgets plugin and not the other samsung ones correct? and you have the correct version of flash and framework too right? other than that i dont know why it wouldnt work for you.... but honestly i would wait, its cool to tinker with but the widgets that come with it are the only ones that are made for it at this time.... pretty limited and its really small text and icons... on top of that you cant lock them to the background so if you drag anythign across the screen your widgets will move with that drag.... jsut my opinion on the program.... but if you have any further questions feel free to ask

Re: FEWidgets v100b6 (Freeware)
 

I downloaded flash and If I go to programs and click on widgets I can pick them and mess with them but I can't get it to work on my today screen. I don't know how to check which framework I have.

Re: FEWidgets v100b6 (Freeware)
 

if you get it to launch than you have the correct framework version..... what do you mean that you can get them to work on your homescreen? are the shortcuts not leading to anywhere or what?

Re: FEWidgets v100b6 (Freeware)
 

When I go to start\programs\FEWidgets it works fine...however, when I check the widgets plugin.....and nothing else, all that appears is a scroll bar on the right hand side of the today screen....no widgets.

Nevermind I got it to work....thanks though

Re: FEWidgets v100b6 (Freeware)
 

huh do you mind taking a screenie so i can see what you are talking about? sorry having a hard time picturing what you are going through. also a picture of the tab where you check stuff to be added to your homescreen would be nice also if it isnt too much trouble.

MAN this looks sweeeeet!

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

I really haven't played with any of the older version, but I am going to have to take that step and see what it's all about. I post back when I have some insight.

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

You know, this is my favorite interface so far, but the Yahoo weather widget didn't ask for any setup info on first run. Anyone know what I cna edit manually to get my weather link in there?

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

should be able to click and hold and go to the settingsd or their should be some sort of configuration option like through menu or something.... havent used this since i was running the hibby rom that had it built in but that was damn near 6 months ago if not mistaking.

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

I am |--| this close to loading a custom ROM. I am in the process of reading. I am trying to find a ROM to suit my needs.

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

word good luck on your hunt dont know much about gsm touch pro roms...... if you want a fully skinned one with some extras many love nrgz.

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

Crap forgot to update my info. I am running a Samsung Omnia CDMA now. (CDMA?) Verizon. I tried out the Verizon version of the Touch Pro, it was SLOW and laggy. Same with their TP2. This Omnia, despite it's quirks, is damn fast and beautiful

I hate the "My Storage" partition though, just gimme more program memory. That is the 2 reasons I am trying to figure out the ROM thing, quirks and space.

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

damn omnia two coming within the next few weeks and the tp2 i own through verizon and have no lag issues at all nad i love it :) still cant wait for custom to get rid of all the bloatware and everything

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

Another issue I have with FEWidgets is that fact that it only works when installed to program memory. I want to install it to My Storage or Storage Card...

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

sorry many apps are like that... many need the main memory install since it has to be booted first and main memory is booted before storage card on your phone.

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

Now see, a nice juicy ROM will fix that and free up an extra 8GB of space....

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

8gb? think you meant megs.

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

Sorry, nope. I seriously meant 8 GIGABYTES. :)

You can also check Samsung's page, CNet, and more. It has an 8GB partition called "My Storage". I wish this was not there, that it was all one partition, and them my 16GB storage card...

Re: FEWidgets Ultimate v10b12 (Freeware) NEW 23/09
 

Tried this....it too has a lot of good things but cant seem to get the basic things like easy setup, a good SMS system and fluid movement down.

I am going back to swcked mobile 3.5.
HOPING ON THE ANDROID TO TP ROM IS COMING SOON. hint*hint
