Help with GenieWidget.apk (News and Weather) - Android Apps and Games

I am trying to get GenieWeather Widget to work on my Thunderbolt.
I was looking at this thread and found these pictures.

Looking through the thread the app I am interested in was identified as: News and Weather by Google. Found on the system as GenieWeather.apk.
The first version I found did not work on my Thunderbolt. I couldnt find a version for the TB on xda but did on this website.
After installing I can not find a way to display the weather in the week format like in the pictures. Is the option just not available on the TB version or am I missing something?

You can't find the setting because it's not geniewidget. Looks like one of the simi widgets.

Just download Simi Clock Widget which includes the weather widget. Simi only lets you have one day, not the app in the pictures. Anyone else happen to know?

i think the weather app is beautiful widgets. it's a paid app.

Also, I see everyone posting their screenshots with a big digital clock and weather what widget is this: see here:
The icons in the status bar are from an app called seepu. And the weather widget is beautiful widgets. That's the smaller home widget.

Ok thanks I checked it out.. But it didnt give me the last 2 icons on the top left, presumably temperature and ram??
It only gave me CPU usage and Network...
the icon on the right is from an app called SetCpu and I'm not sure where that particular temp notification is from, but the Weatherbug app has one.

Stocks Widget?

Are there any Android widgets for stocks similar to the HTC Stocks Widget? I'm having a hard time finding a good replacement!

Anyone?
I just check google finance, that too rarely.
will be good to know which widget is the best.
Tried these? http://www.appbrain.com/search?q=stock+widget
Yep.
Stock Alert, as the name suggests, only allows for one stock. If you try to add a second widget for another stock, the first one changes too.
StockPrice Widget: I added a few stocks but could never get it to show any prices. It looks like it's a common issue as many others in the app comments are having the same experience.
I also tried "Stock Market Widget", but it had the same issue: no stocks ever showed up. It's a brand spanking new app (<100 downloads) so maybe it's not fully working yet.
I don't see any others with widgets, though plenty of them have people in the comments saying "needs a widget"
I guess there's no such app for stock Android eh? Man, the Sense widgets are just amazing.
I'd like to know too. At the moment I am using multiple instances of the Google Finance widget. Sub-optimal.

!!!!!
In all my searches, the Google Finance app never came up! I just tried it out and added a bunch of their widgets to my homescreen. Well... Compared to HTC's Sense UI widget, it's ugly and far from functional, but going by the lack of success in my searches (and lack of responses), I'm guessing this is currently the only way to do it on stock Android. Oh well.

[WIDGET][1.5+/3.2+]BigBattery 4x1 cool widget

In my quest in finding a 4x1 battery widget wich looks cool on my phone and tablet, i could'nt find any.
So i've developed a beautifull 4x1 battery widget wich has a nice and adjustable gradient.
The app comes in two flavours: The free version only includes one widget where the (not so expensive) payed version includes alot more...even a full working binary widget.
The widget runs from android 1.5 up to 3.2 so its very suitable for Tablets too

Great app! But would love to know what launcher and theme u are using?
My theme is not really what makes that homescreen
I'm using ADWlauncherEX with a custom dock image at the bottom.
All teksticons are created with "TextIconCreator for ADW" (you'll find it on the market by that name).
The clock is from "beautifull widgets" and the toggles below the battery are from "Widgetsoid".
all together you can build this kind of screen regardless of wich theme you are using.
Check out Battery XL Pro
DiamondJinx what clock/date widget is that? It is awesome!!
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using XDA Premium HD app
Its called "WP Clock 2.0" I love it
Hey, do you plan to include other widgets or the ability to add my own widget? I love the battery, but would want to try other graphics.
Another one, can you add a third color for the gradient? I have things in mind like moving from black through green to white or something like this.
Cheers

[Q] Weather Widget

Looking for a decent weather widget. But before we go any further, I have tried beautiful widgets and HD widgets. I am looking for something like beautiful widgets 1x1 weather widget, but one that only shows a weather Icon, I don't need the text, current temp, ie, all that other stuff. It doesn't fit well with my themeing and skinning. Any ideas? Thanks!
UCCW.
I think you can pretty much design it yourself with this, or use and/or modify someone else's skin...

Thanks, I will definantly give that a go.
This is the app I use, though its a paid app, it has more weather information than I would ever need (or completely understand!). I like the widgets too, they look great, and the radar widget is super cool...

This is the app I use. You can customize and make all the clock, battery and weather widgets you desire. Mine is the paid version, but there is a free version as well. You can see mine below:
