Did they forgot to make widgets downloadable

I really like the touchwiz interface Samsung created. They did a really good job hiding windows.

At first I thought I would simply disable the touchwiz and go with spb mobile shell or something but I kinda like the UI.

They say it is fully customizable but I beg the difference. I really mis the function to add my own apps to the touchwiz. Just a shortcut like the newspaper widgets are.

I've looked everywere to find some custom made widgets but I only can find the SDK kit. Since I'm no developer I don't have a clue how to do create my own.

But since there is a SDK kit there surely must be a place to find and download the widgets. It seems the pixon and the I900 both have a download widget in the widget bar but it seems the touchwiz 2.0 on the B7610 doesn't have this widget. Has someone managed to get more widgets and if so where did you find them ?

Thanks, it works great!

Btw. for your problem you can download advance config it has a function to change the keyboard layout along with 200 other tweaks. But be careful, you can really mess up the phone with the wrong tweaks.

Thanks for the file.

I now see i need to put it in:

<internal memory>\Windows\OnlineWidget\widgets

Edit:

I dont see any changes, how does it work?

Are any of these new widgets special enough to warrant reenabling Samsung Widgetplus though?

I'll say no, i prefer a lot more the imrpessive SPB mobile shell. that interface is really, really impressive, almost similar to samsung but far more complete, everythings works but their locking screen, direct access to start menu, press&vibrate, and their small compass support. (You can keep the samsung locking screen/start if you want, you even can keep both interface)

when i start the widgets2 program on my omnia pro..nothing happens.

by that i mean that it doesnt recognize or find any widgets!

is it only mine or doesnt it find anything on yours too?

try "open market" or something like that,its a website that is dedicated to the mobile app scene that has developed a free app program,try google it, the program itself is "OpnMarket" or something like that...

THOUSANDS of apps...I dig it! :(

Opnmarket is a tool from freewarepocketpc, it has nothing to do with widgets.

Tonight I upgraded my phone ! I found the official 6.5 update for French Sfr brand, widgets are way more complete now
