hey guys so basically I was wondering if its possible to layer or combine widgets on the home screens in Android like you could in spb mobile shell ? the reason I ask is because I really like having my weather and clock together like say fancy widget but that doesn't allow as much customization as I would like any ideas ? thanks
I know Launcher Pro plus will let you resize widgets so you can overlap them. Not sure if this is what you are looking for but it was the only thing that I could think of.

Launcher Pro sucked on my Inspire. HAVE TO PAY to put widgets on....BS!!! Uninstalled it.
Why is that bs? Do you think all apps should be free or something?
LPP is totaly worth the small price tag. It is a great app.

heya,
I just got my new se x10 white and im thrilled.
One thing i miss only! I'm coming from an htc hd2. and was wondering if its posible to have a same like clock? a flipclock?
thanks in advance for replies, and hope root will be achieved soon!
Is rooting like flashing a rom on windows?
There are a couple of clocks that you can try. I use beautiful widgets, you can also try weather widget & toggle. Both are themeable to make them more HTC like.
Root is required to flash custom roms.
Congrats on a fine purchase
The Weather Widget & Toggle is identical to the HTC sense weather/flip clock widget and is also skinable.
Try the Fancy Widget. I'm using it my self on my X10, and it's working really nice.
It's even free and it's on Android Market.
Wow nice thanks!
Fancy Widget looks nice and looks exactly like the HTC one.
thanks you guy's!
fancy wiget is really great i live in belgium and paid apps arent avelble here
so this is really nice

high rez HTC clock and weather widget
I like the full screen animation that displays when I unlock on the stock Sense. I'm running Virtuous and using Launcher Pro. I have tried some nice widget apps but I have not found that kind of animation for Launcher Pro. Anyone know how to get this (preferably free .
There is but it won't play wenu open phone u havta open app. Think it's. Animated weather or something like tht. I wanted same thing udo but couldn't find anything close.
sent from dinc
Yes, that one is pretty good. It might be the one I stick with. either that or get a nicer looking widget and give up the animation. Thanks
Yea i did option 2. Kinda miss the cool animation

Beautiful Widgets can be set up to display weather animations on phone unlock.

I was wondering if it did that. Downloaded some gorgeous custom Beautiful click widgets from this forum today. If I can install the app and get screen animation it will be worth the few bucks. Thanks.

Also "Weather & Toggle Widgets" does the unlock animations, I think it's $1.99 in the market. You do have to download the "Forecast Addon" but it's free. There're some nice skins for it in the market as well.

Yes I saw a youtube on that. A comment said it was a bit out of date and recommended Beautiful. Any idea which is best?
I just now put on beautiful super widget. Very nice. The custom clock I put on from xda is nicer though. It's a "Fancy" widget but not animated. Named HTCclockwidget-redrum. I'd love that clock with animated weather.
Anyway I'm happy now. Thanks guys. Maybe I'll even try Weather and Toggle to check the skins.
Gotta love XDA
You can give fancy Widgets a try too.

Hey guys. I'm in search of an animated flip clock, identical to the one found on HTC devices. After hours of looking around, I've decided that there is not one out there that flips AND looks just like the HTC one. However, after playing around with Better Alarm Clock Pro, I found that it has a working flip clock built into the app, but it cannot be used as a widget. This brings out the question: Can this portion of the app be ported so that it is a widget? I am rooted, on an Optimus V running Stock ROM with everything stipped, if it matters. Thank you.
Just use fancy widget, looks and flips pretty much the same

Fancy Widget with the H7C skin looks almost exactly like the sense flip clock.
Go weather's htc style widget looks close too. Just download go weather and then the skin for the widget.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
He wants it to flip too. Like the animation. This isn't currently possible according to fancy widget. It is in the FAQ on their site.
Fancy Widget Pro is quite good to pretend as HTC Sense clock, Retro Clock Widget is an alternative for simple flip clock
I believe the flipping animation is part of Sense UI... soo you can't exactly replicate that.
Anyways I understand it'd look cool for the first hour or so when you're looking at your widget to flip..
you'll forget about it later, and it'll cause to be nothing more than a battery eater.
I own fancy widget pro and am using the h7c skin, but it doesn't flip. Better alarm clock pro has a working flipclock built in and I just want to know if it can be ported?

Hello? Surely this is possible?
Sent from my VM670 using XDA App
Try a LWP instead of a widget search the Marketplace for "Live Wallpaper Flip Clock" by Sergey Golovanov it is not bad and may accomplish the effect you are looking for.
Thanks for the reply, RifRaf, looking into it at this very moment. But my original question is still not answered. PLEASE can anyone tell me if it is possible to port it. I don't know how to develop apps or scripts or any of that stuff. All I know is that the flip clock is there, within the app, and I just want it on my homescreen.
The flip is part of htc's framework. Its not part of androids. Theres no way to make it work.

well I know I sound like I'm a dumbass here, but I know that the stock android system is capable of animated Widgets. I've used a clock with rolling animation, so I know that animation is possible. I also know that better alarm clock pro has the HTC flip clock. How can it not be possible to animate the flip clock as a widget? All of the image files are there, it just needs to be coded or scripted or whatever (I'm not programming inclined, obviously). If anyone can make a widget out of this, I would be happy to give them a few drinks.

If youre not programming inclined then why do you insist it can be done? I have been told by many developers, it can not be done. Talk to any sense dev, theyll tell you.

Look, if I had several hundred dollars to throw away just so I could get a damn flip clock....I am fine with my phone how it is. The flip clock is 100% possible, there was a working flip clock posted earlier in this thread. It just needs to be themed to look like the htc one.
I have my entire sense theme put together, I just need this flip clock widget to happen, so I can make it complete.
It doesn't really look like HTC Sense, but it flips...
Try out "Animating Flip Clock Widget" - it's free on the market. I'm sure the apk could be modded to look more like the Sense clock.
EDIT: Doh! I just realized the link posted earlier was the same widget. Oh well... but yeah, I'm sure it could be modded, but making it look exactly like the Sense flip clock, including weather, the dark background behind the tabs, etc... might be difficult.

Hi guys. I was just wondering if it would be possible for someone who is good at making themes for the nexus s and if they could either make a Windows Phone 7 style notification bar with the battery icon and signal ect ... Or a full theme including a similar style lock screen. I have installed launcher7 and the WP7 apps to make it look like WP7 as much as possible but all I need now is the status bar. I even have the WP7 lockscreen and contacts app with Facebook intergration. Please help. Thanks

Ha ha very funny. Some people dont have the money and dont really want the phone as there is a lot you cant do with it eg apps like what android have. All I want is the UI and that us it. I dont want Microsoft ****ty phone just the UI. All I need is the status bar to look like the wp7 phone and that is it as everything else I have make it look like wp7.

I would definitely like to see this as well, I really like the font and clean look. Although Focus' are fairly inexpensive in the states, usually around $150 where I am but carrying 2 devices is a bit much.

Well that's my point exactly and I already have two phones as it is. My nexus s and my x10 so to have a third phone my trousers would literally fall down with all the weight of the phones. My x10 I help devs with there ROMS by giving them my tweaks I know and my nexus s is my everyday phone.

Yes I know that but that is just for.the homescreen. When you open an app it swithches back to the stock status bar. What o want is a status bar with the the wp7 icon so I can switch off the launcher one and just have one set.

Are you looking for something like my application, StatusBar+, or something else?

I am also still searching for a ROM that is built based on WP7. I feel like it is kinda cool if u get ure phone to run as android but look like something else. I feel as if it stands out.
I also hv everything installed to make my phone look like WP7. Juz like BlackWatch89 said. The only thing left is the statusbar. Using StatusBar+ is most likely sufficient but I do not own a credit card to upgrade to full... T.T
Wud love to see a ROM built based on WP7 or myb hv the UI look like WP7.
latest MIUI + this theme ( http://www.2shared.com/file/bAnRD1bx/WP7Dark_Blue-1.html ) + launcher7 = wp7 theme which is practically based on ics!! It gives you lock screen, camera (not sure), and much more!

Beautiful Widgets is decent, you also got Glass Widgets, HD Widgets, and even some of the customizable widgets like UCCW you can create your own look to the weather.
