[Q] News/RSS Widgets - HTC Aria Android Development

I am looking for a full screen news/rss widget. I have searched google and xda and nothing.
Any suggestions is much appreciated.
Edit: Please move to General Aria discussion.

you can try Instant news for google. i havnt tried it myself, but it seems to have what youre looking for. or you can search the Market or Androlib.com for whatever you want

Just either use the default news widget if your using sense. You can add custom rss feeds etc and its full screen

There is always the official Google Reader app... I use it every day.

Try Seesmic. It should be easy to find in

I've tried a few and my favourite is Twicca.
Night clean looking app, has a widget, does notifications (now you can choose the LED colour ) and can be set to default for twitter links, like when you click on a twitter update in timescape.
twicca is pretty sweet. i think i'm going to be using this for now on.

[Q] How to get XDA threads on Android widget?

Hi guys,
Just wondering if theres an app i can get to see a live feed (like RSS) on a widget, but i only want individual threads... not just a XDA RSS feed... if you know what i mean
I just want to be able to see whats up in LeeDroid and iNsertCoin threads without going to the XDA app (which i do have the premium version) but i thought a widget would be cool. Like plume i guess

Quick question... could you pull and post the apk for this? I just got my Galaxy Tab set up with Honeycomb, courtesy of Spacemoose1, and I'd really love to try this out (even if it is just a trial version). I'd really appreciate it, and thank you in advance.
*Edit: Of course, if you're planning on releasing this as a paid app, then please disregard my request. I've really enjoyed your work with Colorize Widget, and I wanted to give this a go, as a tablet-optimized app. Thanks again.
Thank you very much!! Downloading now!

awesome widgets. please make a widget for gmail. thanks!
I doubt a gmail widget will work now. After the gmail API change, all gmail-related counters and widgets are non-functional... :-(

Maybe I'm missing something but where do I go to add the widget to a screen? It doesn't appear where the otehr widgets are
You need Honeycomb in order to use Wizz. If you do have it, just long press the screen, and scroll over to the right, until you see the group of Wizz widgets.

A Gmail widget would be really cool
A weather widget would also be cool
Thanks for your hard work

Gmail would be nice, but it won't work. With the recent API change in gmail, it's rendered all related widgets and unread count features completely useless. Google kinda blindsided devs with this, and there's not much any of them can do at the moment, besides hope that Google rolls out a more developer friendly API... :\

Widgets
I actually paid for the full version, and LOVE it. Awesome work, just what my Xoom needed and deserved.
I can't install a market, I simply get an install error, if I use the .apk from the first post I get a force close when I click theme settings. Any help?
EDIT: Using a Toshiba Tab AT100, Android 3.0.1
This is a great app/widget set. I agree that gmail would be an awesome addition.
I did notice on my DS7 (running Honeystreak) that if I add the reader widget I get sent into a FC loop.
Additionally, as philseven stated above, some of the stack widgets are not visually appearing on the screen. I can grab and remove them, but I'm only guessing at their location.
Great widget, love it!

Try to add normal facebook & twitter widget

before add stack widget
Nice
This is an awesome widget set but I don't understand why you can't scroll or even access the next month in the calendar / agenda.
OK I installed from the attached .apk file on my Asus Transformer. I then went to try and add the widget I tapped widgets and scrolled through entire list and no Wizz Widgets are listed do I need to do something else to get it working? Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: Belay this message I shutdown my Transformer and restarted it and they showed up. I love the calendar widget.

Htc news widget

My htc news widget won't update. Any one has a similar problem? Any idea how to solve this?

In Accounts & Sync is News set to sync? (Sorry if that's too obvious, but it's the best place to start.)
Thank you but ya it's set to sync.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
try clicking the little refresh button on the bottom of the widget, that always works for me...if that doesnt work, remove the widget, add it again, re-add the news sources, and it *should* be fine after that
Solution of this problem
No folks, it is a well known bug for this widget. So the solution is simple. Install GOOGLE READER and sign in with your account and refresh. After that the news widget will work for you and update your RSS feed forever.

This HTC News app would be so much better if it had a way to mark all stories as read. Thumbing through all my stories takes forever...
Why would you use HTC News if you already have Google Reader installed?

for me, the news app stopped syncing after the ROM update.I factory reset, and all is ok now.

Buddy Widget apk please

The new ICS update lacks the buddy widget, and the new way to put android contacts in the home screen really sucks, can someone please give me the Buddy widget apk please.
Sorry to say but installing the 'old' 2.3.6. buddy widget doesn't work in ICS, it's not compatible.
I've been struggling with the same (yes...the new widget sure is UGLY...lol) and have tried alot of buddy widgets (even the one from SGS2)...but to no avail.
Just try mecontact from the market. You will never look for something else
