Thats the HTC widget. That will only work on a Sense ROM and if you are using the Sense Launcher (no ADW or Launcher Pro ect). If you are running one it should be included. The closest thing would be Beautiful Widgets that you can get in the market. There is(or was) another one in the market that is an exact clone but Im sure it wont be long before HTC shuts them down if they havent already.
o i c and i do have ADW launcher. thanks for your respond and i will look for that beautiful widget.
I think the closest replacement to the Htc Clock/Weather Widget is called Weather & Toggle Widget in the Market - I really like it a lot.
Or Fancy Widget which looks just like it, but you will need to surf the internet to dig it out. Since it was taken off the market place, or at least I dont see it no the market anymore.
I'm looking for some good apps that will improve CM7. Here are the things I'm looking for:
Sense-type dialer (where it makes suggestions based on numbers and letters)
a good clock/weather widget, like the HTC one (I already have Fancy Widgets Pro but that one is kind of ugly)
Other sense-type features
I like CM7, but I still want some Sense-like features...
Any suggestions?
Did you fix the fancy widget so it can look like the HTC clock

Yeah, I didn't know there were different skins, but I got it so it looks nice now

This isn't what you were asking , but if you like CM7 and you like Sense, you might want to give Ultimate Droid a look over. It's based on CM7 but is a little easier to customize. Don't remember what the dialer looks like.
Now back to CM7: the default dialer will suggest contacts as you type out their name, so I'm not quite sure what you're getting at there. I'm surprised to hear that you can't find a clock/weather widget you like in FWP. The main widget is called Fancy Home and can be themed to look pretty damn close to the HTC widget, flip numbers and all. It also supports the weather effect across the home screen after unlocking, and it has the rain/wiper effect in there somewhere.
One of the things I like about Sense is the thinner icon font. There are themes for CM7/ADW that will give you this look, such as y0rk's Black ADW theme. Makes a big and pleasing difference to the overall look of CM7 IMO. There are also themes to give you some cool things like the circle battery mod, custom status bar, etc. There are custom dock backgrounds for ADW that will give you that curved dock look (either 3 or 5 icons) similar to the Sense dock.
edit: sorry I see you found the FWP skins - disregard
Dialer One will do what you want.

no, but you know the dialer in HTC Sense, where you start typing a number in the dialer, it suggests people based on the numbers you've typed and the letters on those numbers.

Dialer One does that for you. I, however, don't care for the interface much. Just personal preference though.
I just downloaded Dialer One and I'm trying it out now...Is there any way to make it the default dialer?
Any good deskclock apps?

It should automatically prompt if you choose to do something that would use a dialer. If it doesn't automatically prompt you (with the option to make it default) then try going into Settings > Applications > All > Dialer - in dialer see if you can click the Clear Defaults button.
it does, but then when I go to the dialer it's the regular one...I solved the problem by just using Launcher Pro Plus, so my dialer just goes to Dialer One.

I use clockr. I also use touchpal dialer, I like the interface better than dialer one
beweather in the market is another good sense clock/weather widget
have to try this!!!
I'm getting my rom all sorted out just the way i like it:
CM7.021
mattedblues
swype
launcherpro
beautiful widgets for weather
changed the Sprint banner
etc...
I finally found the clock I've been wanting, turned out to be the bobclockd3. Now I just have 2 questions I can't find answers to without paying for an app to do it.
1. How do I get it to replace the clock on my lockscreen with the bobclockd3?
2. How can I get my weather widget on my lockscreen?
You need widget locker. I know its 2$ but its worth it. U need that program to do everything ur trying to do. And its what others use when u see the lockscreen screenshots

Try "Simple Text" via the android market, or find some icons on Xda there are some threads with tons & tons of pic & text icons & just put them in your pics & then just swap the pic you want when you create a widget or shortcut on your phone!
If this doesnt work you may have to install Launcher Pro???? i cant remember if you need it to do that or not? Try it & your see for yourself
Hope this helps
Desktop Visualizer might have this ability but i'm not sure. Have you tried it?
I don't know about anyone else, but I have a BAD habit of wanting to change what my Atrix looks like, every 5 minutes. Sometimes its because I may not like the ROM and sometimes I may love the ROM...but need change. Especially, when I see a new ROM has been developed.
So I thought to myself...since I need change, how could I do that, without constantly flashing ROM after ROM. Stupidly, not thinking of this before - I have been playing around with home launchers.
I decided to make this post because I posted a few screenshots in the thread of my current ROM (Jellybeer) and I have had a lot of inbox messages asking what "theme" I was using. So I wanted to put this out there for those who have not discovered this home launcher. Now keep in mind, you can theme CM10 - and change the home launcher at the same time...which is awesome. Some home launchers even offer their own themes (which may change your icons, font etc) So lately, I have been spending more time combining themes of CM10 with different launchers, which led me to discover YANDEX.SHELL.
Its pretty basic, but offers some awesome visual effects (in my opinion). Which includes - its own dialer that you can use by default if you wish, a new look to your contacts, and my personal favorite - the carousel! The carousel is neat in the aspect that its animated. Its activated with the "pinch" gesture on your home screen and it shows all your home screens in a carousel that spins one screen at a time...animating any widgets you have on that screen (NOTE: Animated widgets are the widgets that are provided with Yandex)
The link and my screenshots are below. I hope this helps and let me know what you think! Cheers :good:
