[Q] Android Tips widget - General Questions and Answers

Just purchased a Samsung Captivate (AT&T) and noticed that there is not a Tips widget like I've seen in pics for 2.2. There is no option for "Android Widgets" or "Samsung Widgets" or "Tips Widget". So it appears to be missing Is there an apk for it somewhere ?

Push and hold on a blank spot on the screen. Choose what widgets. Then pick the one you want. They are also in the market. Find the one you like and download it.

Weather & Toggle Widget Issues (Nexus One)

Has anyone else had issues with this App?
Weather & Toggle Widget
I can use every aspect of the app except the MOST important feature,
The flip clock /w weather widget.
If I long press my desktop and select the "Weather & Flip Clock" widget, enter my zip or let it find my location (both don't work).
After I save there is a little grey box on my screen that just says
"Loading Data..." where the widget should be... It doesnt matter how long I leave it, it never loads into the widget. I have to long press it and drag it to the trash to stop it.
Anyone have any advice?
Use Beautiful Widgets instead, Weather Widget has bugs.
I got it to work. I had to un-install and re-install. All is well.
how you've done to fix it ? jsute re-install because on my x10 i can pick zip code or location and there is no meteo on the widget
tryed to reinstall but no
is it a donation one or a cracked one ?

[Q] disable weather effects?

Sense 3.0 is great and all, but every time I unlock the screen, it tries to show some cheap little weather animation, is there a way to disable this? I have dug through some settings but to no avail.
Touch and keep holding the clock/weather widget
Drag it onto "Edit"
Select your city
Remove the checkmark on "Show full sceen animation"
An alternative would be deleting the mentioned widget.
Hopefully I was able to help you with my first post on xda-developers.com...

Cheap weather animation?? Do you know that almost all other android phones are dying to have the smoothness of that what you called cheap weather on the S4G... Anyways, im not sure I understand where you are seeing the weather animation but here are the possible solutions:
1) If you are trying to disable the weather lockscreen, then just choose another lockscreen. (Personality > Lockscreen > Choose anything other than weather)
2) If you are trying to disable the live weather wallpaper, then just choose another wallpaper that isnt weather (personalize > Wallpaper > HTC wallpapers for example)
3) If you are trying to disable the weather animation caused by the flip clock, then from within your home screen, tap and hold the clock and drag it down to Edit. Select current location (if desired) then uncheck (Show Full screen animation)
Good luck to you...

This did the trick, thanks very much!
Thanks. I wouldn't call it cheap but it is annoying for sure. Nice to show off but gets old quick.

[Q] No widget found

I am sure this has a simple solution but I am a total noob at this. I recently rooted my Samsung Mesmerize and installed Avatar ICS ROM. I downloaded the Circle Battery Widget from the Play Store. It shows up in my Apps panel instead of Widgets. I can add it to my homescreen but when I go to configure it an error pops up.
"Unable to configure, no widget has been found! Please add a widget on your home by Menu/Add/Widgets"
I have searched here and other forums and have found nothing. Can someone head me in the right direction?

Samsung Gallery app won't let me apply wallpapers anymore

So I have an AT&T Galaxy S8+ and I just received the latest (August) update and I can no longer apply any photos/images in the Samsung Gallery app as wallpapers for the home or lock screen. I can set images as a contact photo and an AOD pic; but not just a regular wallpaper. It used to be in the dropdown after tapping the three little dots in the upper right hand corner. Anyone else experiencing this? I've tried checking to see if I have the latest version of the app (which I do) and I can apply wallpaper with literally any other app (Nova, Piktures, file browers, etc...) but the built in gallery; no dice. I really like their gallery but now it has become less useful since its lost one of the key reason I use it.

Magi home ui/ icons

Hi all
I'm new to this forum so I'm still getting used to this. I'm currently having issues with the MAGI Home UI, the widgets and some icons. I know this theme is really old and built for a previous version of Android, but I'll try to get all the questions I have out of the way. I'm not sure if there's still anyone active with this project since the theme is around 8 years old.
1. The MAGI "UI show screen list" animation plays, with the rotating screens. However, when I tap one of the screens, the animation continues playing in the background despite the screen already set into place.

2. Some of the issues for the widgets are that it is blank. This happens for the news widget, the user phone number widget, and the weather widget. For the weather widget, I think you have to download some kind of app, as tapping it takes me to the Play Store, but it's just stuck on a loading screen. If anyone knows, please tell me what app I have to download for the weather widget to function.
