Hi,
I was just wondering, is there any way to have an animated widget on the android homescreen, which stays animated and consists of multiple frames? For instance, an animated flash, gif or png sequence?
Thanks
nope dont think you can
I think that you can if you setup your own timer to refresh the remote view.
Not sure that you will get many frames per second, though.
I have just released my clock widget that contains smooth animation. Check it out here.
My app WebLiveWallpaper does exactly that (widget with pictures, animgifs, mjpg, websites, javascript) - xda thread is here:

What I'm looking for is a way to use the other weather wallpaper as my animated wallpaper.
I see in the weather demo, weather conditions like windy and with snow which I think will never be the weather on my country / location.
Although I really like the animation and want to set it as my animated wallpaper. I think someone else might might want this too. And later on maybe we will be able to mod this like the circles animated wallpaper.
Has anyone found a way or would like to embark on this request?
weather in start page ?
hi,
don't know if this can help, but ther is an app (Weatherpanel) that use changing wallpaper synchronized to the weather.

[Q] App / Widget that draws "dividers" or "lines" on the homescreen
Hey XDA
Does anyone know of a widget that could draw simple lines on the homescreen
to "divide" the screen into multiple "zones".
After using the Simi Clock widget (appbrain-> bit.ly/aCqElU ) together with
launcherPro that enables you to resize the widget and drag the "divider" from simi clock to split another zone on the homescreen, i was curious
if there was some widget / app that could do that.
Like this: ( to new so can't paste links ) - b.imagehost.org/view/0170/HTC_Desire_HD_1 -
this is not my image, taken from the launcherPro Forum
I have searched for a simple widget like that but ended up with nothing, so im turning to the al mighty XDA to maybe catch a break
thank you

Don't know about a widget or app, but you can always draw the lines on the wallpaper!
Check out mClock, the XML template feature can do this.
I want a weather widget that has videos playing in the widget that show the condition of the weather. Kind of like the Samsung or LG weather widgets. I know Yahoo Weather does static images but I want Video. Is there any type like this that will work with any launcher. IE Nova???

I haven't come across exactly what you are looking for.
What I suggest, however, is using live weather wallpapers. They serve the same purpose that you want but in a slightly different way.
Here are a few examples:
Weather Wallpaper by yitiaocailHM
Weather Screen by Hamster Beat - it's not free though
Animated Weather Widget, Clock by Mobilityflow Publishing - they list animated widgets under features in development
Unfortunately I can't provide links as I haven't reached my 10 post limit yet.
Vitesse.
BUMP Until I get a answer

In his case (as in my case too), phone/android version is irrelevant because we want a weather widget for a 3rd party launcher and NOT for a propierary launcher with a propietary dependant weather widget (like samsung weather widget, or xperia weather widgets that are only compatible with their propietary launchers...)
Anyway... answering myself, i've found two widgets that does exactly what we want, but they can be very laggy without a potent phone
--> FineWeather Widget
--> Animated Weather Widgets
Both in play store
Hello everyone!
GifWidget is our home screen customization app that lets you animate a gif inside a home screen widget.
You can use any gif from your device or find more using the integrated Giphy browser. Also trying Google image search can be a good idea as you can search only for transparent animations there.
There is a free and a pro version of the app: the only difference is that in the free version you can use just one gif at a time (you can, however, use the same gif in many widgets e.g on different home screens).
I’d love to hear what you think of it.
Here’s the link to the free version the app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mortisapps.gifwidget
Thanks for reading!
The new version now comes with a support for using external image picker and quickly launching the Google image search with options set to find transparent gifs.
Hi all
I'm new to this forum so I'm still getting used to this. I'm currently having issues with the MAGI Home UI, the widgets and some icons. I know this theme is really old and built for a previous version of Android, but I'll try to get all the questions I have out of the way. I'm not sure if there's still anyone active with this project since the theme is around 8 years old.
1. The MAGI "UI show screen list" animation plays, with the rotating screens. However, when I tap one of the screens, the animation continues playing in the background despite the screen already set into place.

2. Some of the issues for the widgets are that it is blank. This happens for the news widget, the user phone number widget, and the weather widget. For the weather widget, I think you have to download some kind of app, as tapping it takes me to the Play Store, but it's just stuck on a loading screen. If anyone knows, please tell me what app I have to download for the weather widget to function.
