Nexus One Running Home++

So, I just downloaded home++ for my nexus one and I love it! The fact I can hide the notification bar at the top of my screen is great. I can just slide the power stripe to see my connections and stuff. However, I have noticed if I use "Beautiful Widgets" with home++ the widget doesn't work....ever. Anyone else have trouble like this? And does anyone know if the dev is still going to be updating home++????

thanks!
 
Have you restarted your phone? When I first installed Home++, none of my widgets worked when I added them to the homescreen. After I restarted my phone, all of them have worked ever since. I would try this.

If that doesn't work, possibly an uninstall and reinstall will do the trick. Other than that, I have no idea.

Hope one of those things helps

I used Home++ for a while, but now I'm torn between Helix Launcher 2 (live wallpapers + dock + hide notification bar = win) and I've just tested LauncherPro.

Anyways, make sure you're not killing the widgets with Home++ built in task manager. I never had that problem.

Yeah man everything is running perfect for me now. I tried helix, but it just isn't as good as home++ imo. I love my powerstrip at the bottom lol. If I could figure out how to use sweeter home2 I would be all over that like a fat kid on a smarty. Sweeter home is friggen awesome.
