Todo Widget in a minimal style? - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
is there any widget out there that does not look so box-like? I love Simple Calendar and i can customize it so perfectly so its fully integrated in my homescreen, with alpha background, small font and a minimal look.
Anything like that out there for todo?
google sync would be cool but not a musthave.
thanks!!

Has this box around while your calendar widget only consists of text. thats the main problem i meant when saying "boxlike" above. any idea?

ToDo List Widget does have a little bit of that boxy look, but it does have a nice look. It has a nice minimal style to it.

can we get the Incredible widgets on the X?

the contacts widget on the Incredible is very good. Is there any way to get them on the X? This is my 1st android phone, so I'm a bit of a noob.
No, the widget of which you speak is a HTC Sense widget and will ONLY work on a device running a custom HTC Sense version of android.
HOWEVER!
There are plenty of widgets already on the Android Market that are pretty much exactly the same.
"People / Contacts Widget" Seems to look exactly the the same to me, the only thing it doesnt do is scroll like the HTC version. If you are looking for that try..........
"Scrollable ContactsWidget BETA" which offers a scrolling option when used with Launcher Pro or ADW Launcher!
Good luck, and enjoy your new Android phone!
Anyone know of a good calendar widget that works in agenda view and has transparecy settings ? The stock one is garbage.

The new Launcher Pro Plus ($2.99) is attempting to replicate all of the sense widgets, with the contacts one being done already. Check out if that's what you're looking for. I'm new and can't post links but google launcher pro plus and it'll pop right up.

Back again, just tried business calender beta. Nice app. but in my opinion Jorte is much better: more readable textiel in week view for example.
Pure Calender Widget
Pure Calender Widget, costs about € 0,79, but it works nice, very much functions, sizes, etc. I'm working with it for a long time now, and the dev is answering and trying to help if something comes up...

I've used Smooth Calendar for over a year because it's simple and looks good. I just recently switched to Jorte for something different and I like the layout of both the app and widget so far.

My favorite is colorize widget. It has an agenda widget just like sense and also has facebook and twitter widgets similar to the friends stream in sense. Best of all its free.

Jorte by far.. LOVE the look and teh fact it has just about every widget size you can imagine
Android Agenda Widget is a nice scrollable agenda widget. It has a mind-boggling array of settings and potential customizations to make it look just how you want.
Jorge gets my vote. Great Widgets and settings.

Really nice, hadn't found about this one yet
I like Pure Grid Calendar Widget for a nice customisable calendar style widget. The only thing that would make it better is if you could switch between an agenda view and calendar, like the Launcher Pro Plus widget.
Oh yeah, and it costs €1.49

[Q] What is the best calendar widget?

I like the stock widget, but it's too small and I'd really like something different until 3.1 comes out.
I need a Calendar widget that:
looks great on honeycomb
can be resized (or at least be large)
strong customization
Also, I don't mind paying for it. Does anyone have a recommendation?
I use Agenda Widget Plus and I love it! It's scrollable and has lots of customization potential, although it is tedious to customize.

Android Agenda Widget.. its free too
Pure calendar widget.
+1 for Android Adgenda Widget. Still seems a little small at it's max size, but I love it on my Evo, and certainly a step up from the stock one.
Small? Odd.. I'm using the 2x4 widget on my TF home screen and its plenty big enough
Jorte is a really nice Calender with various widgets.

Best calendar widget?

I'm looking for a the best calendar widget, of the scrollable variety.
I'm coming from launcher pro and I LOVED the calendar widget so a widget like that would be awesome.
Either a standalone widget or calendar app with widget should be fine too..
Any opinions?
i prefer CalWidget (https://market.android.com/details?id=net.eggenstein.android.calwidget) as it's the most customizable calendar widget i found. unfortuntely it's not scrollable
PureGrid is my favorite. They have a transparent skin so all you see is a nice and clean calendar that's scrollable. Tons of different sized widgets available to pick from and lots of skins. Has built-in support for many task apps too. Its somewhere between $1-$2, well worth it IMO.

I've been using apw since removing sense, suits all my needs.
I use simple calendar widget as a 4 x 1 home screen widget . It's has highly configurable and customizable colors and fonts.
For full screen you can't beat the sense calendar month widget, unless you're not on sense and then another vote for Android pro widget

Totally posted in the wrong thread, sorry Anyways, Pure Calendar Widget Agenda is the best
