Hello, I don't get any widget to place on the home screen at al, even after removing and reinstalling the appl. Galaxy Tab SM-T700 running Android 7.1.2 - what am I doing wrong? What's possible to debug that behaviour?

Hi, I have just tested the app on an Nexus 10 emulator with Android Oreo (7.1.1). The Nexus 10 should have the same screen dimensions as your Galaxy Tab SM-T700.

Could you describe your problem more precisely? Do you see the available widgets after long pressing your wallpaper and then tapping 'widgets'? When you drag the widget to a home screen, do you get the screen to search for a location?

Hello Sander,

that's exactly my problem - I don't see any widget available in "Widgets" after long tap on the homescreen. The Problem remains, even after a reboot. Is there a way to add a widget "manually", e.g. using adb shell? OS is a Resurrection Remix (Android 7.1.2)

I have some experience in Unixes incl. Linux for ~20 years incl. programming in different languages, but not really with Android except using the OS shell, so if you could explain, I'd like to try it out.

Kind regards, Eckard

Hi Eckard,

I'm not sure if it's possible to add a widget with adb shell.

Could you please check the dimensions of your screen with this app for example (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.jotabout.screeninfo/). The widgets are only available if the defined minimal screen size is available. For the widgets this is 250dp for the width and height.

Hi Sander,

thanks for the response and support.

Screeninfo gives me that exact information:

Device Name: SM-T700 Android Version: 7.1.2 Screen class: large Density class: Unknown Total Width (px): 1600 Total Height (px): 2560 App-usable Width (px): 1600 App-usable Height (px): 2560 Width (dp): 600 Height (dp): 962 Smallest DP: 600 Long or Wide: No Natural Orientation: Portrait Current Orientation: 0 Touchscreen: Finger Screen DPI: 426 X DPI: 359.646 Y DPI: 361.244 Logical Density: 2.6625001430511475 Font Scale Density: 2.6625001 Calculated Diagonal (inches): 8.4 Calculated Diagonal (mm): 213.0 Pixel Format: Not Available Refresh Rate (fps): 60.000004

Is there something unusual in?

Best regards, Eckard

I don't see anything unusual in this report. Unfortunately it's really hard for me to debug when I can't reproduce it. Perhaps this is a known issue for Resurrection Remix?
