high rez HTC clock and weather widget

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.

Weather Widget on Desktop

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).

Launcher app with wifi toggle?

Hi all, I am new to android having just gotten a Desire S. I was trying out Go Launcher EX which I liked a lot, until I realised that there are no toggle widgets for things like wifi, mobile data or gps. From what I have read, only Launcher Pro Plus has some of these widgets, is that correct? Is there any other free launcher which will give me these toggles the same way HTC Sense does? I don't mind paying in principle, but in the future I may want to use a custom rom. Thanks!

I use Beautiful Widgets. It costs a bit, but it's worth it since you get many toggle widgets (WiFI, GPS, Airplane mode etc.) and a nice clock+weather widget with lots of customization possibilites.

If you want a free app with only toggle widgets, you can use for example Toggle Widgets Pack

Thanks very much! Would you know if the Toggle Widgets Pack would work with a launcher like Go Launcher EX?

Yes it does. But I just noticed that Toggle Widgets Pack doesn't have a switch for mobile data. Here's a better alternative:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jim2&feature=search_result
Has many more options and much more configurable

Get Quick Settings so you won't have to get a new launcher and waste space with widgets. All you have to do is hold the search key to bring up a window with the settings you need.

Thanks very much to you both, I will try both ways and see which I prefer. Thanks again!

I'd throw in another one: Elixir, not only switches but lots of other useful stuff too

+1 for Widgetsoid.

[Q] Android toggle widget icon replacement

Is there an app that can replace a toggle widget with your own icon?
Some kind that DesktopVisualizer does with ordinary widgets.
I looking for one to enable silent mode.
I'm using HTC HD not rooted with adw launcher ex.

I believe its openhome or something created by them, Check the market.

Can I get the default pixel date/weather widget in Nova launcher?

I really like the Date and weather widget that comes stock in the Google Launcher on the phone. However, I've switched to using Nova Launcher because I like a couple of its features better. Is there any way I can get that widget on my homescreen?
Thanks!

Try: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.difer.weather
Sent from my Pixel 2 using my fingers on the keyboard.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tommasoberlose.anotherwidget

Try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=wangdaye.com.geometricweather and select the oreo widget in that

Guys, try this one, its called chronus (Google Play store). Its free, I just bought weather icons for 1 $. I dont know why, but I cant attach screenshot... But its looks so much better then other apps.

Yes, it is built into the Nova settings. No need to download additional widgets. Just look for the Google search bar options and select the pixel style and enable weather display.

i would love to find the built in digital clock/date widget, i cannot find it in nova launcher, could you tell me how? i don't need the weather as a widget, just the time
