Hi guys.
I have tried many widgets now.
I'm locking after a widget wich show weather AND the time of the location I add.
Many widgets that I have tried shows the weather of the location, but not the time there.
For example, I'm here in Norway and add Miami as location. All the widgets I have tried shows the weather there, but not the time. It shows the time here in Norway.
Is there any widgets wich can do as I explained above? I've been looking for so long and tried soo many apps!
Please help! Thanks

I tried a program called world forecast widget that worked very good, BUT the widgets are to small. The size is only 2x1 and I want 4x2 (or bigger)
Please anyone know about a app for me?

Hello guys. So i haven't seen a weather widget that is like 4x1 that holds a 4 or 5 day forecast. An example of what im talking about would be to...look at the stock HTC weather widget (the large one) and only take the bottom part of it...with the 4 day forecast OR the take the news and weather application (N1 Genie app) and the bottom part of the weather information. I think this weather widget would sweet.
My reason for this is that i don't really need a clock that takes up the same space and only shows me the current weather. if its hot right now i know its hot There are just so many clock instances and current weather but i would like to see what the future weather would be at a glance when i turn on the screen.
IF there is already an app out there I'm sorry for the request....and please let me know what it is (buy or free).
THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY REPLIES!
+1000!!
I've been searching everywhere for something like this!
I couldn't believe that no one has made one yet? It would be the perfect weather app!
Snowstorm will do this for you, it's in the market. There's an option when configuring the 4x1 widget to show days in the widget.
Weather Widgets (yr.no) by Thomware

I am not sure if this is possible with a lockscreen widget or another addon.. but is this possible with the android and if so, does it exist? Its for an iphone...

You can mimic/enhance that look with widget locker.

You can get WidgetLocker and put whatever widgets you want on your lockscreen. There is an app called executive assistant that puts all of this info on your lockscreen as well.
I use widget locker, its a great app. I will have to look for the other widgets to get all these features.
thanks
haha, looking for the right widgets is becoming numb..

Using Launch-X Pro to add extra icons I use.. Still looking for weather and clock.
For Clock, I just found Digital Clock Widget

I am totally stuck on the weather widget. I cant find a 4x1 widget to show a simple weather like the OP... any help here please?
Found it.. for weather, I am using weather forecast widget
http://www.appbrain.com/app/org.koxx.forecast_weather.v2
its not the ideal solution but it will work.. I will upload my finished screen tonight
thanks
Sorry for the delay in putting the picture up..
Here is my lockscreen after all the above
Very nice. I prefer the 2x2 weather and agenda widgets so I can see more agenda items.. Personal preference, just sharing.
Also - have you had any issues with accidentally opening the shortcuts? I've been using a slider to enable/disable interactions to prevent that

nope, I do carry my phone in my pocket too. I know there is an app called "Call sure" I think... not 100% on the name but basically gives you another prompt to make sure you want to dial someone and should stop pocket dialing
Are you using multi icon widget for the apps? And what does the lock icon do?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
For those icons on the bottom, I use Launch-X Pro
the lock button just locks the phone instead of hitting the power button.
Hi,
Do you know any weather app that does not have running service?
Yes, weather forecast app that can pull data "manually" ...
No need periodic / interval update ...
Widget is not necessary either ...
Moved to Q&A BW, Fancy widget, and even the default news and weather app has this I believe
Most have these "features" and I don't really like that either. I've noticed that most of them will let you change the frequency that they pull info. Some down to 12 hours.
Fancy widget has lots of refresh options. One of them being to only refresh weather manually.
Thanks for all the suggestions. At the end, I ended up with (again) Beautiful Widget 1x1 (I already bought this when I use HTC Desire).
The reason that I want to find this kind of weather app, because I want to limit the number of running (background) services.
So, I replaced the Beautiful Widget Home widget with "simiClock" because it is simple, elegant and uses black background (save battery life).
simiClock has weather info as well ... But it does not have forecast.
That's why I was looking for weather app which can be activated (launched) when I press the simiClock weather.
But, it seems I cannot find one ... The one with update/interval can be controlled (I am not weather obsessive guy, so manual update is the best for me).
At the end, I am back with Beautiful widget weather 1x1 ... until I found a nice weather forecast app to launch from simiClock
I purchased the Weatherbug Elite. It has the options to turn off the background processing and only grab weather data when you run the app.
it's unfortunate, but i'm running into the same situation
i want to disable the back ground processing of the weather app that i like, but the app doesn't have such a feature/option
the app is supplied directly from The Weather Network, and it's very accurate, all the other apps that i've tried before are not so great
Try WeatherPro, best weather app imo
try Fancy widget... you'll love it! great app
Moxier World is by far the best I've found.
It updates either automatically or manually.
It also shows local time and weather in as many world locations as you need. It has 5 days forecast for each.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it has a background process
yes, it is nice, it's what i'm using
Try this out. It has an option to set update interval (or disable update entirely)
so I want to get multiple weather widgets for different cities, how can I set it up?
(if I just put two beautiful widgets, there would share the same set up, only one city can be displayed)
thanks guys
You have to use an app different from Beautiful Widgets as multiple cities are not yet supported... I use Palmary Weather Pro, ended up being the best for me after trying almost everything.

Weatherbug allows you to choose the location then set the widget, allowing for multiple cites.
thanks guys, I'm trying other apps now
Can anyone suggest a weather widget, or even know of one, that is JUST the picture/graphic of the weather? I'm going minimal these days with my homescreens and need something to match. Seems every widget has a clock or forecast for the next couple days, etc. I simply want, if its sunny, a sun. If its raining, rain drops etc.. I've seen similiar ones for the moon phases etc, but can't seem to find anything for weather..
Any help? Thanks folks..

Well am not sure this is rom related but if you going into the widget selector and scroll down to weather there are 3 of them in there with 2 small ones.
You don't say if you even bothered to look at the phones selection of widgets.
These are from beautiful widgets. You can turn off the background so all you get is the weather. It's in the market if you want it.

Thank you ^
Going to check it out in a few. Wonder if I can edit that to remove the text(temp, high/low) somehow. Is it simply removing a line of script in the file does anyone know?

BW has an lwp that displays just the weather.

Weather bug has a nice small widget.
As I said with the stock weather widget you get several small ones. This is the smallest on that is available without having to buy anything.
simi clock has a minimal weather widget too.
