No not weird at all. I'm the same way. At last some one that understands. I've been using Beautiful Widgets very similar. Not the clock and weather toggle. I bought that and it wasn't quite up to par. No raindrops on the glass or clouds and thunder. Beautiful Widgets was worth the money though. I was going to check this Digital Clock out too. Just haven't yet. If you try it let me know how you like it.

The sense widgets REQUIRE sense framework and the rosie launcher.
There was an app that was pulled from the market called 'Fancy Widget'. All I will say is that it was pulled via C&D by HTC themselves for being 'too similar' to the proprietary clock widget you are looking for.
"Fancy Widget" Google is your friend.

Yeah Fancy Widget is the one run by the Weather and Toggle app you have to buy to make it run. Not really what the sense clock is like. I liked the Beautiful Widgets way better. You can play with different skins till you find one that suits you and the Boca weather skin is just like the sense weather.
Actually. That is not correct. Fancy Widget is different and you can Google it. I use it because you can set if to update more frequently. If the stock app updated every 30 minutes like you can set Fancy Widget to do I would still be using it...

what about other HTC widgets? I would love to use LauncherPro but I have to have the HTC Photo Album widget to show off my new baby girl. I know there are other photo widgets and I have tried almost all of them but none can compare to the HTC. Please help I am sick of using the rest of Sense....
Every HTC specific widget cannot be run on any Launcher except Rosie and cannot be ported without making an exact replica with the same images like Fancy Widget. People need to realize this and stop asking.
There is a separate Widget named Fancy Widget, it was pulled from the Market, because... IT IS EXACTLY the same as HTC clock, they literally copied the images. It is wonderful, a little more flexible, and can be setup to check more often, and launch whichever clock and weather app you choose when you touch.... Only thing it does not do is animations. Google "Fancy Widget apk" and really look as stated prior if you want the HTC clock...
If you want something attractive, slightly different, and still free check out
Weather Widgets (yr.no) http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.ermesjo.yr I switch between this and Fancy Widget based on how I am feeling lol
As for anyone missing other HTC widgets... support Launcher Pro and purchase Launcher Pro Plus, the widgets are very comparable... and the guy has written a wonderful piece of software... so pay the 2.99!!
I just downloaded Fancy Widget 1.3 and it is basically the same exact thing as the HTC Sense Clock widget but it allows you to configure what application it launches when you hit the weather icon, date or time. I just installed it and haven't seen if it does the weather animations but I could care less about that.
Hopefully, I'm posting in the right section. If not, please forgive me and move to the right one.
I have Fancy Widget Pro on my phone. The problem is, I want to use 2 widgets from FWPro: the first is a 1x4 clock & weather which I use on the main screen of my Droid Incredible. I have a custom clock skin I made for it and a weather skin i downloaded from the FW market. The second is where I run into a problem - I have 5 Day forecast 1x4 widget on my WidgetLocker Lockscreen. The thing is I DON'T want a background on that one and I also want to create a separate custom weather skin for that one.
In FW Pro, you can set the background to show or not and that setting is applied to every widget. Likewise, you pick one weather skin and that is applied to the weather in every widget.
I'm thinking the only way to actually have separate ones would be to decompile the .apk file for FW Pro and leave all the functionality the same but change any reference to Fancy Widget Pro to a new name (Fancy Widget Extended maybe) to in essence create a new 2nd App that could be installed on my phone. I not quite savvy enough to actually do that, but I'm wondering if I'm correct in that thinking or if someone else has a better idea.
Thanks in advanced for any help!

Im looking the stock clock widget with the weather, im using cm7 and im asking if someone can put it to download, thanks.
did you check the android market. there are probably hundreds of apps that will fit your request.
Try Beautiful Widgets or Fancy Widgets.
Can i not change the icons that are used in sense in one of the homescreens? i cannot get it done with the apps simi folder or folder organizer.
The icons are changed but the changes are not visible on my sense screen.
Does this mean i have to shut down sense to get my own favored icons on my homescreen?
And if that is so, how to shut down sense and install another icon organizer (and which one)?
I would look up different launch apps on market. Launcher pro is good ex launcher is good. They offer different ways to style ur home screen.
The most you can do without root is hiding parts of sense with other launchers and themes.
So i can't tell this phone of mine within sense that it should stop starting sense, but some other launchers will do that for me?
And again: it is NOT possible to change the icons within sense?
I managed it with Phlashcut, but then i don't have the icons available that i want to use.
edit: I guess this will do the trick
edit edit: With folder organizer i did it. Modify in the tool and place the icons on the homescreen as widget of the organizer.

This problem could be the app, the launcher I use (kk launcher) or something I did. When I try to add the widget for uccw, the launcher presents me with several widget options (1x1, 1x2, etc). The launcher freezes on this options screen and I suspect it's because I made additional custom widgets under the uccw category. I also modified existing uccw widgets. Anyway when I reinstall the app, I want it to forget all previous custom widgets and just include the stock widgets made by the app. How can I do this? I already tried clear data and clear cache before uninstalling, then running a search in file explorer and deleting all references to uccw. Didn't work, the extra / altered widgets still show after I reinstall the app.
Hi!
I would suggest you try asking in this thread on UCCW... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880050
Good luck!
