I have the same question ...

I think this is currently not possible. There is no API to do such a thing.

Any Qt application can use the Home Screen Publishing API to send data to a home screen widget.

Hello, I have the same problem, I am trying to create a widget to the home screen that connects to a QT application, my boss says that if possible but all the information you found is related with WRT, someone managed to create with QT?.

Hi,
Qt apps can use "all" the Symbian C++ APIs, including the homescreen ones. Unfortunately it's a bit tricky, I'd recommend implementing the homescreen part app using the S60 5th ed SDK (i.e S^1). The same app will work on S^3 BUT not all the features of S^3 homescreen can be utilized.
