news widget no server feed - Thunderbolt General

Has anyone else got "no server feed" message when trying to load HTC sense news widget? Tried other rss news widgets and none of them have any feeds either. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

It needs to be set up from the app in the menu first. You add them there,then you can open the widget and pick the ones you want.

thanks a lot! was driving me insane

flyscreen has a calendar widget? i think
what about using Widget Locker?
not smooth as i want. sometimes u can still see original lock screen :<
widgetlocker with smoothcalender widget (Y)
I skipped the installation of widgetlocker because it asked for permission to use the phone... it seems weird... What phone calls should make such an application?
Any other app does the same?
tnx

All apps that support older Android devices older than 1.6 automatically have this permission, and even those not meant for devices that old often still have it, usually because developers didn't know or were lazy - here's more information

Because you can add shortcuts to the screen to make calls I believe. The app itself obviously isn't making any calls.
WidgetLocker + Android Agenda Widget is my favorite.

yeah this is what i'd do also.
Another vote for Widget Locker. I use that with Pure Calendar widget to get my appointments on the lock screen.
can i use WL for my mytouch3g andriod 1.6?i dont want to root my phone,.
You don't need to be rooted to run WidgetLocker. I'm using it on an unrooted Evo with the pure calendar agenda widget.
A new widget came out called calendr that is pretty sweet. On the clean though if you like that type of thing.

[REQ] Contact Widget?

Looking for a contacts widget similar to People in Sense UI. Of course, understand we won't get scrollable widget due to lack of Rosie, but just a static 3x3 or greater widget would be awesome.
Found "Artis Contacts Widget" in the market which looks to be a good start but it's not customizable, doesn't support Facebook contact pics and seems to be low res.
Any thoughts, or devs up to the challenge?

[request] Clear people/bookmark widget?

Does anyone know of an app for either a people or bookmark widget? Much like the ones you use on sense/ launcher pro plus.
I use the ones on launcherpro but they just don't go with Manups theme too well.
Thanks guys
I use Scrollable Contacts Widget. It had a transparent background option.

No FB photos unfortunately. I just use it to display my starred contacts and I have pics for most of them already. It has a bunch of options and widget sizes plus it's free so you might want to check it out regardless.

An app that will keep track of my work schedule

I would like an app that will let me track my work schedule and clock on and out to keep track of my hours. There are a couple of apps in the market but they are cumbersome and way to complicated for the simple task I am looking for haha.
Can anyone reccommend something?

Yeah I think that I will just continue using my work clock to punch in and out. I will just keep my schedule written down someplace I suppose.

For your schedule use the calendar app it sync with your google account and you can see it online that'd what I used
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I use Time Recording. The interface is a little confusing at first, but it works well once you get used to it.
Does it fall into your "cumbersome and way to [sic] complicated" category? If so, what kind of basic features are you looking for? Just something with a "clock in" and "clock out" button that will track time?

Time recording looks like a nice application. Really, the only app that is cumbersome is my work schedule. It'll let you put in preset times but not let you enter your schedule manually. I could use the built in calendar to keep track of my schedule but that is too many steps to take every time I need to add a new time on a new day.

I think I will try to use calendar. It might take a couple extra steps but it is by far the cleanest and simplest method so far. I like the idea of the syncing as well.

So you want an app for "your work schedule"? Did you look in the market for "My work schedule"?

Yeah I tried that but as far as I can tell you can only schedule preset times that you put in beforehand. It works, but the way my work schedule is I am always having to go in and add more presets. I think calendar will work nicely.

You can select to enter a time manually as well. Hit "enter schedule" then menu, "manual time entry"

Missing Stock Weather Widget

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know how to get back the stock weather widget? I see it under the apps but it does not show under the widget selection. I am not rooted , purely stock.
Edit : Can a Mod move this over to questions and answer please..
Are you sure you are searching it? It should be called Weather or whatever weather is called in you country in the widget section
Sent from my FRD-L09 using XDA Labs
It's in the Play Store actually. I just forgot the name.
It's probably missing from the firmware!

you might be 100% right because like I said before I have the actual app but don't have the widget for it. I really don't want to reflash a whole firmware just for the widget so I guess I'll use another weather widget.
Did you try an hard reset?
Sent from my FRD-L09 using XDA Labs
Do whatever please you
Got it back.. looks like after taking an update something happened, but I was able to disable the app a few times and it reappeared in the widget selections after restarting.
Thanks all for your assistance.
