Smooth calendar or grid cagebdar are neat. 3g watchdog (monitors your data usage) and apn Droid (disables and enables 3g data) are both useful if your data plan isn't unlimited. And genie widget is also quite good and has a nice app to go with it (news add weather) though you'll have to Google that one as it isn't on the market.
any suggestions for Messeage widget?Mail Widget? and Photo album widget?

Try Pure Messenger for the message/mail/texts
suggestion: what about turning this thread into a widget collection, OP updating #1 to get a referential on the subject instead of getting multiple/duplicate threads on the subject? this is not the oldest thread on the subject, but the one with the most generic subject and maybe it could be turned into the last of it's kind...

I like the Ted Zkeletal clock widget, it's a nice change. It is quite large though.

you download from the market, then add the widget by long pressing the screen? of course you need to have sufficient space for it.
What version did you use? I just download 1.8 and the weather icon doesn't show up....

What is a good replacement for the apps that worked on 2.1
HTC Facebook.
Swype - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=687056&highlight=swype
I forgot I had to go into the system settings to enable Swype. I thought it would turn itself on by default so I could just select it from a long press in the search box.

Depending on what you want it for or how you use it; Socialite or SyncMyPic work best to mimic what could be done in sense with HTC Facebook.
Good post. I've been hunting to find a good gallery program to replace the 3d gallery. I tried just removing the 3d gallery apk from system/apps but then I cannot set a wallpaper (I wouldn't care of even having a "gallery" program but it seems like i cannot set wallpapers without it... i'm fine just using estrongs file manager to browser pics).

I originally posted this in the wrong thread, but flickie doesn't seem to do it. First off, its primary focus seems to be finding new wallpapers (and not to browse images already on the sd card).. secondly, it uses the same 3d gallery thing as the 3d gallery thats included in cyanogen. Am I missing something?
EDIT: Ok.. I think i'm just on crack... everything is working as I want it to now... who knows. I usually screw up more than I care to admit
I do think the 3d gallery is neat, but I like simple usually. Its suddenly allowing me to just use a file manager to browse my photos and set as wallpaper... wasn't allowing me earlier.
On a side note, I think i'm gonna keep that flickie program installed. I do like being able to find some other neat wallpapers by category. So thanks for the recommendation
I think the official Facebook sync is supposed to be fixed very soon.

I've just been using touch.facebook.com in browser.
One cosmetic question i can't figure out being used to Sense - is there any way for the icon to display the number of unread texts or emails instead of it just showing up in the notification bar?
god i wish there was a way for someone to pull and post the htc mail apk its so much better.

Froyo DOES have fb sync. Not working 100% on cyan right now. There are fixes over in the thread in development. One of which involves editing the build.prop

Try launcherpro. Shows these notification numbers in the taskbar.
for those of you wanting a home clock with weather replacement like sense's, beatiful widgets home looks very much the same, only you can skin it however you would like. there are dozens and dozens of available skins.
Or get chomp sms for your texts. I think it's much better then stock messaging anyway.

I use Google voice for VM and texting. Works great except for MMS, which is a GV limitation at the moment.

There was an issue with facebook sync on the hero build as well. Someone posted a fix there. I was going to try it out later.
handcent now has a small widget that looks like a small app that will show a number with how many texts you have unread
Anyone know of a way to get facebook calendar events into a calendar on CM6; a la HTC Facebook for Sense? I tried some Facebook Birthdays events or something that worked for about 20 minutes then corrupted everyone on reboot.
OK, i have looked around, pretty sure there isnt one, but could be wrong... here is what i am looking for:
If i could find a "friend stream" (from HTC Sense) type app that would work without the sense launcher i would be in heaven!
Requirements:
have a running stream of facebook and twitter updates in one place
ability to post to FB and twitter at one time (obviously would be the same message)
Would like to easily retweet/repost/reply
Would REALLY like a widget
must NOT be a battery drainer
would like it to look nice, but this is on the bottom of the list for a reason
Man.. really seems like this should be out there somewhere but i cannot find it.
As always, you help is much appreciated! TIA
Try Pure Messenger Widget
I would also like a alternative app because every time I open friend stream, It force closes on me EVERYTIME!!!
Pure Messenger is actually a lot better than Friend Stream. I'd use it instead even if I was running the Sense launcher.

Using what app?
So, here are my thoughts... Socialite is really cool... But not quite as solid at this point as what i would like but MAN its got HUGE potential.. I REALLY like it but it didnt seem to update and i really didnt like the fact that FB and Twitter were on 2 separate tabs... but other than that.. this is AWESOME (oh and it needs a dark theme but really no biggie)
i did reinstall the PureMessenger and although not as "cool" as Socialite, its solid, works great, and does what i need it to do! THANK FOR THE TIPS!!!
yes, using friendstream ;-)

There's also the Android Pro Widgets, which you can have a widget that does Twitter and Facebook at the same time. That's the one I use. Drop it full-sized on a page and drop the transparency to 0. I've done that with all of the widgets APW provides and I love how they look and operate.

+1 on Android Pro Widgets They have a solid widget pack and work better than Sense stock in some way and have added functions. I only have Facebook mapped and there I can see a small thumbnail of posted pics, links, etc see only my wall, post comments or post status updates on the fly.
Gonna play with the transparencies, thanks for the tip
Now that Chameleon Launcher has hit the Google Play market for real, I thought it'd be a good time to start a thread on xda for widgets made for this very promising Android launcher.
NOTE: The URL to the Chameleon Launcher 'make a widget' page that contains all the information required to make a widget, including a template, is HERE
Please, post your creations below...
Cool! And I subscribed to this thread.
I want to dive into developing widgets because of the lack of them. Chameleon says we can use the source of their widgets.
So I wanted to make a EU style datetime widget but i cannot find the source of any widget except for an empty template.
There are links to the widgets landing pages but that only gives me the source of index.html. And I think I need more than just that.
Anyone knows more about it?
I published my question and then i thought that maybe i am posting in the wrong forum. If so, please Mod, teleport it to the right one.

Almost all the neccessary files are linked in the index.html; you can find all the stylesheets and javascript files there. Also, you know there is a manifest.xml-file in the template-folder, so maybe you can find that by adding /manifest.xml to the url. (don't know if it works!)
If I may request, a reddit widget that allows you to login to your reddit account and display your frontpage
Chameleon it's an overhyped %&^$ !
I regret paying my hard earned money to backup this &^*%&
Thank God Google didn't bought it to use as the future interface of Android ), it wouldve mean total surrender to Apple and it's ios.
@hobolooter - It's ure right to disagree, as it's my right to say it's and overhyped crap.
The idea behind it seems good but the result... :laugh:
Maybe with the help of the community it would become useful indeed - good, practical widgets needed ! , not just stupid widgets for the teenagers, which are cool for the first 10 minutes and after that....

Theres a lot to be improved.
Good luck with your work!
I disagree and think it was in poor taste to post that in this thread. The fact that they opened up HTML5 widget development that actually works well is awesome. I'm working on a few widgets myself and a starter kit that doesn't suck (the one they provide is nauseating to a js dev).

I personally wouldn't buy Chameleon until they lower the price but hopefully a thread like this will inspire development to spice it up. :good:

Needs a decent calendar widget (needs similar functionality to GO Calendar, I haven't found better yet) and a News Republic widget before I'd consider purchase.
Also I hear custom wallpapers aren't supported?

You can use any wallpaper you like - just send it to Chameleon Launcher from the Gallery. No live wallpapers though.

I'm gonna say no because I couldn't get one to work... probably because they're all essentially live wallpapers

Interesting... You tried the one by j4velin just called 'WallpaperChanger' on Google Play, as I don't believe his is programmed in such a way as to make it a 'live wallpaper' ?
Can your Chameleon homescreens slide/rotate like other launchers?
Sorry for hi-jacking, but I've been following Chameleon's progress and couldn't find these answers elsewhere.

Custom wallpapers are supported. Just share any image to Chameleon App.
I've been playing around with a Chameleon widget that displays unread emails from an IMAP account. It uses PHP (with the IMAP extension) to fetch and process the email headers on the server, which works nicely but is less than secure unless using SSL (which I am), since the email account credentials have to be sent to the PHP script in plain text.
I'll admit that I've had very little experience writing for Android--most of my recent work has been with Javascript and PHP. I seem to recall being told at some point that it would be either difficult or impossible to fetch email data from the native Android email app to use in an HTML5 widget platform like Chameleon. Is that the case? I'd prefer to get the data from the local device, particularly because I need to support Exchange.
If you've got more experience with Android's bowels than I do, can you confirm (or unconfirm) the information I'd been told? Is there a practical way to access the email files with Javascript?
Thanks!

I tried it for 10mins and I think it sucked a lot on my Nexus 7, I think all the free ones are better I can see why it is paid but 10$ is kill.
Also I am surpsised we are allowing a PAID app to be supported on XDA we should delete this thread
Hi guys!
For the last few hours, I have been looking for some type of widget displaying missed calls and unread messages, for my widgetlocker lockscreen.
Ideally it would be showing when there are missed calls or messages, and be gone when there are none. Something like the notifications you'd see on the iPhone's lockscreen.
Something like the notifications on GO Locker iPhone Lockscreen HD by ProArt (Appearently I can't post links since I'm new here, but just search that on google play :3 )
Or perhaps the ones on Cute Lover Go Locker by KOOL HD GO LOCKER THEMES (Also on google play.)
Anyone know any widgets that would work for that? I'd be much appreciative, since I have been searching for a long time.
And I really don't know if I am just a bad investigator, or it just doesn't exist.
Personally, I hope for the first one.
Anyways. Thanks in advance!
Welcome, I hope your issues/questions gets addressed. Until then here is some information for you Thanks.
