I'm looking for a simple, minimalistic widget that will just show the battery graph for the past ~8 hours. I've been using JuicePlotter and love the graph that it has, but I would like it as a widget.
Battery Monitor Widget Pro (http://www.appbrain.com/app/battery-monitor-widget-pro/ccc71.bmw.pro) has the sort of things I'm looking for, but I don't want the widget borders/backgrounds. I just want to see the graph perhaps with scale.
Does anyone know of something like this?

This would apply to any widget. It just so happens that on most screens (all but my home screen) I have the "Beautify Smaller Home" or whatever its called at the very top. I like easily seeing the time from each screen. And I think it looks nice. Beautiful might be a stretch... but I understand the marketing.
But the hypothetical question still applies. If I had the "music" widget or the "messaging" widget on EVERY page. Would that widget use more battery than just one instance? In other words, does EACH INSTANCE of the widget poll for data? Or does the process just poll for data and then each widget just repaints itself on its respective screen as appropriate?
I need to know! I'm wondering if I disable "beautiful home" from all but one screens if my battery life will improve.
What do you think? Are there any hard-core techies out there that can help me figure it out?
Thanks for any help.
It really depends on the way the widget is coded and how you can configure each instance.

Best widget ever is CalWidget, it lets you add yours lessons shedule to home screen or just all events in calendar. It. Is. Awesome. Another useful widgets are: Resizable Sticky Notes (just write any text in it and keep it on homescreen), Ultimate Custom Clock Widget (as the name says), Battery Widget? Reborn! (best battery percentage widget I have found in market).
Can the stock OS or any 3rd party app tell me what the battery use of a particular widget is?
It can't, but in general things like weather widget will drain more battery.

Let's say I have "Beautiful Widgets" installed, and I have some active widgets on my home screen. GSam Battery Monitor shows Beautiful Widgets in the battery usage list along with the percentage of battery it has used. Does Beautiful Widgets in this list merely indicate the battery usage while the app is open (i.e., while customizing widgets, settings preferences, etc.), or does it also include the usage of all the current widgets on my home screen?
Hello,
recently I've made a widget for SW2 watchface to show phone battery level. It is similar to watch battery level and there are two versions available:
Small - 1x1 - to show battery indicator only
Large - 2x1 - battery icon with percentage
I'd like to here your thoughts about the widget. Is there anything you don't like or is missing?
Thank you all.

So does anyone have a simple temperature widget? I had been using one of the Moto clock widgets with the outside temperature in the widget but have switched to a new clock widget that doesn't have the feature. While it's not the end of the world it is something that I might like to have. I've looked at a few and they're all big and/or combined with clock widgets which don't go with my theme. I'm really looking for a simple widget that all it shows is the temperature and then when tapped could take you to the actual weather app that it's attached to... I've found a couple that'll put it on the notification bar and when you pull down on the shade, but I wasn't terribly impressed. Any suggestions?
