not that new been on the market for a good week or so but its nice kinda the same as weather & toggle widget though

Good find! Side note, I used to live in P-Cola too.

I live in Anchorage, Alaska
the complete opposite of there

Why can't these HTC Clock applications replicate the animation that plays when you turn the phone on and the screen is showing the clock.. to me they are worthless without it..
Don't know why.. I just love that effect..

my example in my sig
Thanks so much loving it...

Nice, thanks!

It is quite nice but it is all out of whack in landscape view... on the Droid anyway.

i've used beautiful widgets, and weather and toggle, this is by far the closest replication i've seen, altho i really really wish it displayed the flip animation for the time. that would add so much class.

nice, same as manila 2d by htc on windows mobile... thx...

because stock android doesn't allow animated widgets on the home screen.. get the desire ROM if you want that effect.

Ive been using this Widget for a while, it was the only widget i missed when i went o launcher pro on my Hero.

Actually that is not 100% correct. It's because the animated version is proprietary to HTC. Beautiful Widgets used to be virtually identical to the HTC weather widget until HTC hit the company with a C&D letter. Now every update by Beautiful Widgets has to be approved by HTC before they can release an update. Check out Beautiful Widget version 2.35, that was the last version before the C&D.

im pretty sure he meant that when you unlock the screen you get the animation because Beautiful widgets and weather & toggle widget have animations only when you click on the weather.. not on the home screen with out clicking on the weather icon..

nice widget. best to take bacup before it is remove it from the market. as they do with anything that resembles a bit to much on their stuff

Awesome... now i wish i hadnt bought the others.....

Yeah, they need a little lesson in 9.patch and xml...
Nevertheless, it's a good looker in portrait.

mine still looks a little wierd in landscape view, all the text is outside the black border

Does anyone notice the slight banding around the numbers? You can see the numbers having a slight halo. The halos disappear when you try to slide the screens. Reminds me of the 16 bit issue of android...

While this installed without issue, I currently have no Weather Forecast showing? It reads my location fine and states 'Leeds' (UK) however no image of sunshine, or should i say rain clouds here in northern England lol! Anyone else experiencing the same? I did a google search and found others noticing the same on other phones but nothing regarding Nexus. Currently running Enom 1.9.2 and ADW Launcher.
Thanks.

Scrollable RSS Widget!

I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that there is now a scrollable RSS feed widget in the market named AtomaRSS. It looks nice and works much like the RSS feed widget from sense roms. Enjoy!

Seems to work great for Google news feeds but it won't pick up rss feeds from Engadget or Gizmodo. Has a lot of potential.

I am personally waiting for google reader integration before loading a majority of my feeds. It works awesome but would just be a pain to manually enter every one of the feeds that I follow.

Nice, I did not think, so many would use that.

Cool app. This is what I've been looking for for some time. Does need Google Reader support though (as I mentioned in my market rating).
Anyone else seeing unusually-high CPU usage for AtomaRSS though? I added 2 feeds with a 90 minute refresh, and in the past hour (since I installed it), it's used 4m2s of CPU time. It was at 1m31s of CPU time when I put my phone down in standby mode 45 min ago. Removed widget from my homescreen.
-edit-
Just checked, and CPU usage just passed 5min (with the widget removed from my homescreen), so I've uninstalled.

Very good app, thanks for the work!
Some essential things that I would like to see:
-When clicking a feed it should open in the standard browser, not the Atoma-version
-I would like to be able to adjust font size and space between the feeds, as I think they are not very space efficient as is.

Woow, 100 dowloads already

AtomaRSS v 2.0 is out
Very well done, now with new settings, different widgets...

New Version 2.1.1 in Market
Hi,
just posted a new version (2.1.1) of AtomaRSS to the market.
some comments:
* Let me know if it still uses that much cpu (but only if you don't use the experimental link-preload-function, because then it will use cpu, bandwidth, time,... )
* different font sizes / spaces: please tell which things you want to have changed, so i can incorporate another "news-entry-skin'. Unfortunately I don't know of a possibility to change textsize dynamically within a scrollable widget.
* Google reader integration: nothing that will happen soon, but I think i will look into this
Please feel free to share your thoughts and wishes

Nice update!
-open link in external.. I like that!!
Do you think it´s possible for a share menu? (to share for twitter,...)
I know one can get to external and share then...but..

I think this feature would make it an epic app with exploding downloads and all the hype through big android blogs.
Always remember, many geeks bought Android because we are Google addicted

I'd like if there were an option to pull feeds from Google Reader, kind of like how Pulse News Reader does it. It's a lot easier than typing in each URL individually.

nice apps is there a themed v2?

I'm using it daily on G1 with 2.2 and on SGS with 2.2. All the time it was developed on 2.3 in emulator.

Wow! This seems like the ultimate custom clock app i've ever seen! Looks like it already features most of the stuff other clock widgets provide.
Great stuff!

for the next release please add more size widget 2x1 2x2 3x1 3x2
thanks

fu**** nice jihaa cooool editor big thx

Nice!
+1 on the weather and battery and sizable widgets (4 x 1 would be my choice)
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Yep, weather information would be awesome.
But after all, its supposed to be a clock widget, not something like Beautiful Widgets or Fancy Widget.
The editor by the way is absolutely awesome! great freedom of customization and aligning. Never saw something like that before
And yeah, more Widget Sizes would be muuuuch appreciated!

Testing now, looks promising though! Do you think you could add, if not already there and I can't find it, a vertical option as well?

Kinda tedious to use tuning option. Suggestion would be to be able to drag parts with your finger then use tuning for fine adjustments. Love the widget keep it up.
EDIT: and a left, center and right justify option

Uncheck Lock coordinates checkbox. Then you will be able move object by finger.
Justification of text is performed via Anchor points.

nice app! keep up the good work!

App will be definitely improved, this is more proof of concept than final market ready app.
What do you mean by vertical option?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

It is freedom of user whether he/she wants build Fancy Widget/SiMiClock or TypoClock looks. All should be possible in final version.
More sizes are planed to beta3 or beta4

Sorry, I was at work and only had a minute to post. What I meant was that I think it would be good for you to add a vertical text option. I posted my lockscreen to show you what I mean. If your trying to give the app a lot of flexibility, that option would add to its appeal.

Favorite clock/weather widget?

So one of the only things I find myself salivating at on my wife's HTC Incredible 2 is the Sense weather/clock widget. Thing looks badass. I've found some of the ripoffs on the appstore, and have installed Beautiful Widgets, which has some pretty cool clocks, but a lot of them look like janky crap.

Do you guys have a favorite or has anyone found one that gives the sense widget a run for its money?

Fancy Widget Pro is great. I prefer it over Beautiful Widgets and Weather Toggle & Widgets.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.anddoes.fancywidgets
I guess the new version is called just Fancy Widgets

Weather and Toggle Widgets. I use the Digital Clock skin:

Thanks for the suggestions The couple of clocks I've downloaded for Fancy Widgets(I only had free before, but just bought full version) are already way better quality than the ones on Beautiful Widgets. Will try to post a screen shortly

Beautiful Widgets is my favorite. Lots of options and skins

Second to that, plus they had it as an Amazon Free App of the day once. Woohoo!

Beautiful Widgets all the way. I've been using the destroy skin with a transparent background. Around 50% that way I can see my screen background.

DroidX Eye Clock widget
At some point in the last nine months I had a DroidX Clock widget on my OG Droid. I really was just a clock widget that used the DroidX Eye as a background, and offered a choice for the eye color (red, blue, green, yellowish). It was lost at some point in one of the many times I flashed different roms to that phone. I have looked a few times in the last couple of months, but have been unable to find it.
If anybody has seen that widget, or has it, I'd love to get it installed on my Droid Charge.
(BTW: Verizon tunred on 4G in my area today, and it is crazy fast... loving it).

Actually. Use go launcher and then get.goweather. your wife will be salivating looking at your phone. They.have an htc style clock that is better than htcs. And the coolness.of go launcher is a "see it to appreciate it" thing. Set your app drawer to have the blind effect. Its awesome lol.

Alternative
Advanced clock pro is an alterative if you like a modern look. I also use aix weather.

Check out GS Flip Clock wallpaper. I'm running version 4.3 on my Samsung Tab and it's fantastic. It is as close as you can get to the HTC version. It had some growing pains initially, but as of version 4.3 everything seems to be working great.
I didn't pay for it, so I must have found the apk via Google. I remember searching for quite a while because HTC had been putting the smack down on any developers who used the flip clock style.
Currently it is on the market (website only, it didn't show up when I searched using the market app on my Charge) for $2.00. Since I'm a "noob" I can't post the direct link. Search for GSFlipClockWallpaper by Sergey Golovanov

Good Work... buddy

Thank you.
I will combine 12/24h versions with settings today.
So there will be no fix for the 12h version.
Stay tuned!

Hope you like it
Please report bugs in this threads.
Also post your ideas how to improve this little thing
Have fun
emptynick

fantastic work , i was looking for that size everywhere, waiting for your updates

Tx and I had a nice suprise to see that you have already enable the Action OnTouch set to the Alarm (and maybe set an option to disable it in the menu for those that dont want it)
Keep it up
PS: little bug with the date format "27 Nov, 2011" select it display wrong and display "27 01,2012"
PPS: Might want to make an second zone for ACtion OnClick for the date for weather or calendar also maybe

Thanks for the nice clock
Does anybody else having 5 seconds lag, comparing to the systemclock or is it just me ? tried different roms but i have always lagging widgets
Maybe a faulty Note ?

This is because the clock refresh every 7 seconds. I think this is a good time.
Maybe I will decrease it to 1 seconds.
