No, I believe HTC widgets are proprietary designs owned by HTC. One good option is download Launcher Pro from the market and follow the instructions in the preference menu to purchase Launcher Pro Plus. It includes some very nice sense like widgets (calendar, messaging, friends, twitter, facebook, bookmarks..

If you want a weather clock with full screen animation, you have two choices. Beautiful Widgets has a weather clock, weather only widgets in varying sizes (1*1,2*2, ect...) And Weather Widget Donate (there's a free version but the paid one allows you to skin the clock) I have both, and in my opinion Weather Widget Donate's fullscreen animation is more sense like. As for the calculator, download one from the market. You cannot take HTC sense widgets and put them on a non HTC phone (at least legally and I won't help anyone do something illegal) You can find perfectly suitable replacements in the market. Your last option would be to root the phone and install a custom rom, some of them borrow heavily from sense. I don't think they include the actual widgets that you are looking for... If it's such a big deal, get an HTC phone.

Just wondering what you guys have set as your lockscreen? Im currently using the Clock, as I found the weather app to get annoying after a while, cool for the first few times though
How about you guys?
I'm using the weather lockscreen and I don't think I'll get tired of it any time soon
Using weather because it's useful and cool.

Anybody figure out if you can make the lockscreen show something other than the current weather?

Well if you click personalize, then weather you can have it show, clocks, friendstream and a few other things

I think he meant if it's possible to show weather forecast on the lockscreen, not just the current weather and temperature when using the weather lockscreen.
I actually meant if its possible to have another city show besides weather keep polling for your current location.
Close enough
And it seems like you can only have your current location displayed.

Probably only when the lockscreen is visible?
If you go into the weather settings, you can tell it which location is your "current" location and that would be the one showing up. I tested this with Paris, France and my other locations are home, work, and mom's cities.

Using the clock one with the really technical looking clock. It's beautiful, but deep down inside I hate it because it means on the lock screen the time is displayed three times. It's in the status bar, it's above the clock widget, and then of course the clock widget itself.
None of the above, don't like lock screen.
I'm using an app called No Lock, which by pass the lock screen and goes straight to home screen.
Im calling BS on being able to change the weather lockscreen to show anything but the current weather... looked and looked, I see no setting. Now I understand you can change the Clock widget on the homescreen to show different widgets, but not the lockscreen.
Somebody please prove me wrong, and give me a step by step....
Using Widgetlocker as I find the new HTC "ring" unlock system to hard to use when the phone is in a car holder
I'm using my own weather lockscreen. Which is a Pittsburgh Steelers one with weather in front of Heinz field.

Appointments on Lock Screen
Instead of showing weather, I would rather have appointments showing on the lock screen so that one can easily know what is the next appointment without unlocking the device (just like s2u2 does it). Any genius knows how to do that?
So can users make custom lockscreens? not just wallpapers, but the interactive ones?
I would pay money to have a lockscreen that showed the agenda widget. I'm taking about the "live" lockscreens out whatever they are called, similar to how you can have updates out stocks on your lockscreen.
I've been looking, hopefully I didn't miss anything.

Android Pro Widgets: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rdr.widgets.core
Close to the HTC ones
And Fancy widgets for the Clock & Weather
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.anddoes.fancywidgets&feature=related_apps
Thanks for the quick replies guys, I like a mix of both of those widget packs, but just one thing, on the Inspire, before I rooted it, when you would unlock to the home screen, it would display weather effects on the screen, like it was cloudy, clouds would pass by the screen and if it was lightning....well you see where I'm goin with this, do any of those widgets have that feature (I only downloaded the free versions of those widget packs)
IIRC fancy widgets support unlock animation.
You can also try beautiful widgets (paid)

Hey guys can anyone help me to add weather widget on lockscreen of our explorer like in HTC sensation.... I am on sense 4.0 build #6 by deferas.....
Can't! use CM builds instead you can do it there
There is I think another topic related to this. Was no need To create this one.
You can get the weather info on lock screen on sense 4.0a but only one time a day and that's at morning.
Go to weather settings and enable weather reports at morning on the lock screen. That's it.you can change the time to the next day morning to get it again.
