Hello,
recently I switched from Z1 to Z2 and noticed that there is ne widget missing. On Z1 I used "recent calls" widget quite a lot even if sometimes it was crushing showing no any recent cals even if there was a lot of them.

Unfortunately on Z2 I do not see it at all
Is there any way to download it from the market?

Please let me know.

You could try this here - Not sure if it will work as it's from an older model Xperia device

I appear to have it on 4.4.2, name changed to recent calls, is it maybe showing up further along the widget gallery?

Unfortunately I do not have "recent calls" widget, neither a small app for recording, but I had both in Z1

There is only "top contacts" widget on my Z2. Before I had Xperia ZL and this model had "recent calls" and "top contacts" widgets.

I understand but I do not see the reason for disabling both "record" small app or "recent calls" widget.
Can anyone from Sony finally answer this question? Was it really passed internally?

Unfortunately it seems like this has been removed in the Xperia Z2. One solution would be to use top contacts widget instead. It automatically updates with frequently used contacts and recent calls, which would serve as a alternative to the one you used in Z1.

I understand, but still missing these little things
