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.

I think Pure Calendar Widget is what you're looking for.

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.
What are the best Calendar apps or widgets, of any variety and quickly why?
If the app costs $, be sure to say so!
I'm compiling a list of threads that will help people find the best apps/widgets of each category. Will recompile when done so your help is greatly appreciated!
LaucherPro!
Plus version has a calendar, contacts ans sms widget
PowerNote for notes and widget, has a nice UI
Smart ShortCuts creates shortcuts of apps by catergory
BuzzBox for news!
Beautiful Widgets! Has a niiice weather unlock animation and a clock with themes.
That's all I can tell as for the best in my opinion...
Cheers!

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...

Agree with Kwarkje, find pure calendar widget the best solution for me, multiple widget sizes, skins and quick add event function,

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.

working on jorte
i found jorte to be giving too many options to customize, which suits every screen
Do you have .apk file for Jorte?
edit: ok now ive got .apk file thanks you

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
Hey, so just rooted my x10i and started doing stuff to it after 5 months of having it. So i have my home screen the way i like it but its just missing a calender, so does anyone know any good calender widgets?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Depends how you want it to look. I like calwidget as it is basic and suits my needs.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I guess, you're asking for full calendar view widget for one whole screen ?
Search for "jorte" its my favourite Calendar Application bcoz of lots customizable widgets!
and its free
Yeah whole screen and thanks.

For me the best is Pure Grid calendar widget, but it isn't for free.

Thanks mate, loving it
Is there a calendar widget that is similar to the Calendar GO Widget for stock setup. I like the go widget but I don't like the go launcher setup. So I'm looking foe something that will work on the stock launcher.

+1 for Smooth Calender as best calender widget. Very customizable
I use jorte for a full screen calendar widget. May not have smooth rounded corners, but it has transparency and the full month.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Second that. Jorte is perfect calendar widget. I like the full month + task view.
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.
