    Post Unable to use Open Home and have full access to widgets


    I recently found out that using Open Home restricts me from having the ability to use the music player, and calender widgets, which I think are very useful widgets. If I root do I have full access to skin and use the widgets that want to ?

    Open Home no longer restricts the use of third-party widgets. This was updated once the Cupcake rollout started. Make sure you have the most recent version of Open Home on your phone. I do and all my widgets are fine.

    Do you have the free or paid version?

    I'm just using the freeware, so I would assume that with the paid app, I would be able to use the said widgets. I should have put some thinking into that before posting, I guess. Should I buy now, or is there a free app in the markeyt that is cupcake-compatible?

    I am using the paid version of openhome and I have access to all of the widgets. I'm not sure if the use of the widgets is limited to the paid version.

    Yeah, I ended up buying OpenHome Full, and I love it. No problems with widgets, just wish my phone would run faster. Now.... apps to sd without root, would be nice.
