Try Weather Flow, it is in the market/Play, it is only $2 and it is very nice. Also, Go Launcher has a very nice weather app (Go Weather), but I don't know if it works without Go Launcher.
It doesn't allow scrolling between cities, but I really like "Weather forecast widget V2" by Francois Deslandes. It's a very clean look with a lot of customizability, and allows you to show calendar entries along with the weather if you like.

The closest I have got to getting the HTC clock widget on the x10 is free widget app on the market called HTC clocks and a weather widget. They are both low rez and look terrible on the home screen. Anyone know if there is a high rez htc clock and weather widget out there? Perhaps taken from the desire?
Look here.
Yes, just download Fancy Widget from Market and you will have exactly like on Desire, Im using it and it is great !
Do you also get the nice weather animations that appear on Desire when you unlock the screen? Windshield wipers on rainy days and so on? Doesn't seem to work here.

As far as i know, you don't have that in the Fancy Widget now.
I think that this is Android 2.1 feature and that we cannot have that animated sun and rain...correct me if Im wrong...but then, I dont see why isnt that implemented in any weather app if it is possible on 1.6 ?
Beautiful home widget looks great. u get an animated weather widget which changes according to the time.
"Weather Widget & Toggle" plus their weather addon is what you're looking for. Identical to the HTC clock in hi-rez and it has the weather animations, lightning, clouds scrolling buy, rain drops with wiper blade etc.
which addon do you mean?

After you install weather widget & toggle, there is a addon for extended weather options. Just hit options inside the weather widget, and there is an option to download the weather addon. This replaces the default screen when you tap on the weather icon on the clock, it opens up a new weather screen that has the kick ass animated weather and forcast.
i tested it, but i like fancy widget more
I use Beautifull Widgets and is working great and has animation just like Desire. I have my X10i and my brother has Desire....

try beautiful widgets...
I used to use beautiful widgets but for the last week or so ive tried fancy widgets. I like the look of the fancy ones as its almost a direct copy from the htc sense one but i found my battery seemed to be dying quicker than normal so ive gone back to beautiful for now to test it.
Anyone else use fancy widget and find their battery going quicker?
HTC is taking down any clock widgets that looks like theirs
fancy widgets, weather forcast, and another app changed their clock designs.
so if you want to get the htc clock i guess you gotta google it and manually install it.
Damn HTC
Fancy widget has no weather icon below the clock, its that 2 days already. What is that ? I have only clock and other numbers but no icon for weather ?
The clock
Hello,
I just installed Fancy Widget, but it seems to be problem with the time.
The clock never updates, weather is working fine.
I did change one settings, AUTO refresh. cuz i dont want to use internet all the time.
I was using beautiful widget and lately it was giving some errors on whether. So I installed fancy widget and remove from kill list.
So far its working fine and I kept 12 hours refresh interval and use manual location instead GPS (it kills battery)
I have no battery impact on both apps and Im happy about it.
With the recent update on fancy widget, it will be discontinued due to HTC behind them on name usage.
It seems that HTC is taking down Fancy Widget now.
Just look here: http://www.anddoes.com/?p=47
So does anyone have an apk file of Fancy Widget v1.2.4 i can download from somewhere?. Yes the widget is free, so it's not warez.

Dont worry Developer will rerun to us with new version in a separate identity.
developers last words :
Finally, we would like to share with you some of the things that we are working on and some highly requested features that we plan to bring to future versions of our new widget.
* Weather animations.
* Alternative widget sizes (e.g., 4 x 1).
* Option to change themes/skins.
So thanks again for your support, and stay tuned for our new version!

I hate the stock clock/weather widget but I am in love with those full screen weather animations on unlock.
I'm just gunna throw this out there, it would be badass if someone could modify the native htc clock/weather widget to be a 4x1 widget similar to the yr.no 4x1 weather widget. That way people could have the best of both worlds, badass lightning/wiper blades on their screen without the clock taking all that valuable screen real estate!
Wish mine worked....

Go grab beautiful widgets from the market..
you can make it similar to the sense clock but in a 1x4
Right, but then you lose the full screen weather animations when you unlock, right? I was under the impression these were only possible with the HTC widget.
I'm not sure. I know you can get a live wallpaper that shows the weather with beautiful widgets...
What you want, is for the Dev of Cookie HomeTab to make the same for the EVO as he has done for the HD2. Great customization for the sense UI, while still keeping full functionality. Weather animations and all.
I checked it out. Almost makes me want a WinMo device.....almost lol. An android port of that would be amazing. Co0kieMonster's donate button would probably blow up even more if that happened....
i just came over to the Evo from Energy Rom on Windows Mobile. I had cookie on that, and I think it's the ONLY thing (Besides easy wifi tethering) that i miss on my touch pro 2.
Sincerely hoping for a similar clock like the one in CHT for winmo... requested it over at ppcgeeks a while ago with no results.... really miss that also
I was JUST about to post this same request. Now I'll just add to this thread.
I would love a 4x1 and/or 2x1 HTC Clock Widget with the animation functionality.

To those who have used beautiful widgets & live weather wallpaper how does the live weather wallpaper compare to htc's weather animations?
I'm tired of the big clock all together, but love the weather animations. The big clock can look good, but I wear a watch and the time is up top also so what waste of realestate. I'd like to keep the weather widget though (with the animations) so really hoping there will be a way to make it more configurable like Cookie did (more so even -no clock!). Also would really like it if moon phases could be incorporated too.

The live wallpaper looks really good and is really customizable.
My only issue is I don't really like live wallpapers.
The bw widget will show an animation when you tap the weather part of the widget, i would love if there was an option to display that animation over the home screen when you unlock the device. It would be perfect!
i am currently using the virtuous 2.5 rom and have been trying out skyraider vanilla and wanna switch to it except i cant seem to give up the clock widget. is there anyway to get it on the other roms? i prefer other roms to the stock sense i just cant get over the clock as weird as that sounds.

No not weird at all. I'm the same way. At last some one that understands. I've been using Beautiful Widgets very similar. Not the clock and weather toggle. I bought that and it wasn't quite up to par. No raindrops on the glass or clouds and thunder. Beautiful Widgets was worth the money though. I was going to check this Digital Clock out too. Just haven't yet. If you try it let me know how you like it.

The sense widgets REQUIRE sense framework and the rosie launcher.
There was an app that was pulled from the market called 'Fancy Widget'. All I will say is that it was pulled via C&D by HTC themselves for being 'too similar' to the proprietary clock widget you are looking for.
"Fancy Widget" Google is your friend.

Yeah Fancy Widget is the one run by the Weather and Toggle app you have to buy to make it run. Not really what the sense clock is like. I liked the Beautiful Widgets way better. You can play with different skins till you find one that suits you and the Boca weather skin is just like the sense weather.
Actually. That is not correct. Fancy Widget is different and you can Google it. I use it because you can set if to update more frequently. If the stock app updated every 30 minutes like you can set Fancy Widget to do I would still be using it...

what about other HTC widgets? I would love to use LauncherPro but I have to have the HTC Photo Album widget to show off my new baby girl. I know there are other photo widgets and I have tried almost all of them but none can compare to the HTC. Please help I am sick of using the rest of Sense....
Every HTC specific widget cannot be run on any Launcher except Rosie and cannot be ported without making an exact replica with the same images like Fancy Widget. People need to realize this and stop asking.
There is a separate Widget named Fancy Widget, it was pulled from the Market, because... IT IS EXACTLY the same as HTC clock, they literally copied the images. It is wonderful, a little more flexible, and can be setup to check more often, and launch whichever clock and weather app you choose when you touch.... Only thing it does not do is animations. Google "Fancy Widget apk" and really look as stated prior if you want the HTC clock...
If you want something attractive, slightly different, and still free check out
Weather Widgets (yr.no) http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.ermesjo.yr I switch between this and Fancy Widget based on how I am feeling lol
As for anyone missing other HTC widgets... support Launcher Pro and purchase Launcher Pro Plus, the widgets are very comparable... and the guy has written a wonderful piece of software... so pay the 2.99!!
I just downloaded Fancy Widget 1.3 and it is basically the same exact thing as the HTC Sense Clock widget but it allows you to configure what application it launches when you hit the weather icon, date or time. I just installed it and haven't seen if it does the weather animations but I could care less about that.
Hello All,
I wanted to ask about weather widget. I recently upgraded to CM7 now I dont have HTC weather widget on my desktop to the left of the main screen. Is there a way to put this widget in. I tried using add from menu and add weather but it does not look the same. Its smaller in size and not full screen like the stock used to be. I have HTC inspire.
Please help me if you know the solution to this.
Thank you
As far as I know, once you flashed CM7 you overridden the stock HTC Launcher so HTC widgets won't be available anymore. You'll need to search for a replacement on the maket.
Fancy widget is a good replacement. You can also purchase fancy widget pro if you want the animations
You should search for fancy widgets to get the latest version. it's indeed a good replacement for both HTC weather and HTC clock widgets.
As a side note, if you're missing some of the other widgets like contacts, calendar, facebook and others, you can try my new application Android Pro Widgets (search androidprowidgets on the market if you want to, but it is a paid app).
Edit: if this is against the rules please remove it, advertising was not my intention but I now realize it might be interpreted otherwise.
The weather widget (and just about anything that relies on Sense frameworks) are gone in CM7. There are however alternatives/ clones available in the Android Market like and Animating Flip Clock Widget (not perfect but pretty nice).
Is there a theme/ui/widget that has the look of htc sense weather? With the nice htc movies on background?
Try Beautiful Widgets with additional weather animations (paid). You can choose between couple widgets (size form 1x1, 4x1, to 4x3) each witch different skins both for clock and weather. Sinks are being updated all the time.
With "weather unlock" animations You'll be pretty close to HTC clock.
See on YouTube.
I found something awesome.

Will that work on the optimus 3d? This was made for the 2x.
Its the best i could find.
It has the weather i wanted.
Althouh i would still like the weather effect when unlocking.
In Beautiful Widgets setting You can enable/disable "unlock weather animation" which appears on home screen every time when unlocking device, but more like Sense 2.0, rather than latest Sense 3.0.
Search in YT videos for Beautiful Widgets and You'll see what I'm talking about
that weather is go weather you can download it in the market for free
Fancy Widget
I think the "Fancy widget" ver. 1.3 is what you search, try this...
hxxp://w w w (dot) filedude (dot) com/download/8pTbGbPRPb286f725b6c
that one is go weather. get it from market. you can use it as widget, or as background. It is nice and useful. you get a choice of the skin u want with this one.

Goweather video option doesn't work well in my O3D
One thing I loved about the Sensation was the new weather in Sense 3.0, even on the widget the weather was animated and nothing comes close to it personally.
