Looking for Twitter client with widget

I have tried almost every application available on market (in Sweden) but none supports widget in free version.
The purpose in looking for new apps for both Twitter and Facebook is that I'm tired of timescape and replacing it with two separate applications..

I have also tried many free twitter apps.
I have to say that Twicca was the most suitable for me. Leaving running on background, and set interval to half hour, i get the most updates trough the notification. Also there is a widget, to bad it doens't show the last post/reaction of your following, but you have a nice neat set of buttons to make directly your own pic, search user, watch all the posts of your following.
The most best of all is that twicca can post your GPS location and post a pic directly from camera, or search your phone for a picture/movie or record a movie.
Twicca is on my phone for a month now... Still happy with it, only to save my battery drain i always kill the app when i am done xD

Im not into Tweeter that much.
Try these out. Didn't test by myself.

Tweetrait - A Twitter Widget
TweetMeep
Twitmemo

I recommend using the twicca app..I like it and it has a widget too.
It has a clean UI and is fast.

I am using tweetcaster version 1.9 by handmark. I actually preferred twiccas twitter interface just a tiny bit better than tweetcasters, but tweetcasters widget blows twiccas out of the water. The widget is 4x2 and has a text input bar for directly tweeting from the home screen, it also has your latest tweet from your feed on the homescreen, with a button to play your twitter feed, skip ahead to the next tweet, or back to the previous one (if not your most recent). It is the most useful twitter widget i have been able to find (on a free app) and the usefulness of the widget pushes it above all the other twitter apps I have tried. I have not bought any of the premium twitter apps to try their widgets (touitter, twidroid, etc.) so cant really comment on those.
Look for tweetcaster, if its available in your region, and give it a try. it is free after all, so cant hurt to try.

+1 for tweetcaster. Love it.

I use Twicca too, really like it.

[MOD] Improve Synced Contacts Picture Resolution

Here's a mod to improve the resolution of synced contact pictures, so no more pixelated pics :good: Now I have only tested this with exchange contacts as that is what I use but from what I read, Gmail saves it in a 96x96 format on their end, so this might not help too much if you use that but test and post if it does or not.
After applying this mod, you will need to either clear data on contacts storage or remove & readd the e-mail account that has your contacts so it imports them with the new resolution.

"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And for the devs, the mod is actually quite simple, decompile the ContactsProvider apk and mod these values in the values/integers.xml but please remember to give credit
Code:
<integer name="config_max_display_photo_dim">2048</integer>
<integer name="config_max_thumbnail_photo_dim">768</integer>
Flash in recovery

Thanks.

seems to be working well for me, pictures aren't perfect but still an improvement. Thanks!
edit: using gmail, and after looking closer, doesn't seem to have made a difference.
Since you are messing with the contacts app, can i direct you to this thread and see what you think??

As posted in the op, Gmail saves contacts at 96x96, you'll never make them look pretty until Google changes that. Your contacts would have to have a picture up on Google+ for higher resolution pictures.

SeriesGuide - TV Show Tracker

I watch a lot of TV shows and it is hard to keep up with new episodes. I also had trouble to trying to figure out which shows I have already watched.... thus I found the perfect app.
SeriesGuide informs you when a new episode comes out and you can mark episodes that you have already watched.
Learn more about the app here:
TV show tracker for Android

I agree. I love this app, except for the fact that its widget really looked out of place on my home screen.
I have added a few settings to customize it; if anyone is interested I will push these changes back to GitHub and ask the author if we wishes to integrate them.

Regarding the widget, I'm also not too fond of it the way it looks right now. I do like the transparency, but the 'next' text in capitol letters is way to big. If that would be in normal text, it would be better. And the show covers could be doubled in size (thus increasing the line hight for each episode), so it'll be a little more easy on the eyes when watching the list.
Besides that, I very much love this app!
On a second note, perhaps a fourth theme could be implemented: 'rom default'. Install a recent version of Chainfire's SuperSU app and you'll see what I mean It matches the theme based on the used framework. So if you're on a Sense ROM, the app will be Sense themed, and if you're on TouchWizz, it will be TW themed.

Nice app! Thank you, really helping!

Cool

Are there someone else that is having problem to add show and search after show? This must have happen lately for me, cause i could do it a couple of days ago.

[APP][4.1+] Pagendar, Keep close to your agenda every moment

Hey Everyone This is my first application on Play Store.
My first goal is 10k downloaders. I wish i could do that.
Therefore, I will keep close to this post for replying and viewing feedbacks.
I would like to hear more feedback about it.
Pagendar is a new way to check you agenda. Unlike normal agendar apps.
You can check your scheduled without open your Calendar.
Just a single tap, open your agenda to new or edit event!.
More than that, all of above are able to use even you're in whatsapp, email, browsing or in a phone call.

Thanks pingpongboss, your library is very useful.:laugh:

It's a very clever and useful idea. Working well on my I9300.
It seems to only show today's schedule. I think it would be more useful if you could scroll forward to see the following days also, when you are on a call and checking your schedule to see if you are available.
Edit: the second time I opened it, it did exactly that! But it doesn't show repeating events.
I would also like to hide its icon in the status bar.

Is there a way to do this?

I was using BlackBerry 10.2 the other day and noticed a few things I liked and was wondering if there's a way to get them on the Nexus 5:
1. Ability to click on toast notifications (say of a text message) and respond on the spot without leaving the app you're in.. is it possible to do this on the Nexus 5 anyway?
2. Text message previews/calendar events on the lockscreen.. is it possible?
3. Split calendar to show calendar on top, schedule on the bottom (see pic below) - Any app that replicates this or option in Google Calendar?

1. The SMS app Textra let's you reply from anywhere without exiting the app you're in. I'm sure there are plenty of others that do as well, but Textra is what I'm using.
2. Yes. If you drag the lock screen left you'll move to another screen with a '+' sign on it. You can then add widgets there.
3. There's likely a ton of calendar apps for this but Jorte comes to mind as one that has a split view like that.

Thanks! How would you rate Tetra in terms of fluidity and responsiveness? Also, when a message pops up, is there a slight 2 second delay when loading the pop up after the message is received? I tried a similar app in the past and it bugged me that there was a delay when I saw the notification in the notification tray.

Textra has been pretty good so far through a week of use. No major lags, stutters or anything like that. SMS and MMS work fine. I'd say its as good as or better than the old stock messages app.
