[UPDATE 26.04.2011] CHT widget B&L_Group Weather Widget v.5 Final

CHT widget B&L_Group Weather Widget v.5 Final​
Description: A new weather widget. The first version is only shows the weather for 5 days. Supports 2 languages English and Russian. Weather server, as in classical Weather tab-Acuweather (and others will not). Was taken as the basis for the widget script TitaniumWeather Titanium, with a complete reworking and optimization for Manila. When you change the city in the clock settings, automatically will be changed to the nearest minute weather data for the relevant city already, and you can also manually update by clicking on the widget itself and wait 3 to 15 seconds (depends on the speed channel and the response time of the server). To save all the traffic updates are possible only if there is a ready connection and connect to the Internet, cable, Wi-Fi, GPRS. Ie if you want to update the weather, you first need to install handles any of the options for Internet connection, and only then update the weather. This is done to prevent spontaneous eating traffic.
There is an opportunity to consolidate.
Attention! The widget only works with a specified cities, with a location it did not work. All matters related to this, I'll ignore it.
In the 2 version adds:
1. Conclusion obschy information
2. Wind speed and direction
3. Probability of Precipitation
4. Sunrise and sunset
5. 4 different maps widget
- Full and abbreviated with the temperature in Celsius
- Full and abbreviated with the temperature in Fahrenheit
In the version 3 is added:
1. Extended forecast up to 9 days
2. Phases of the Moon (varies depending on the chosen day, together with additional information)
3. 8 different maps widget
- 9 days with temperatures in Celsius
- 9 days with temperatures in Fahrenheit
- 5 days with temperatures in Celsius
- 5 days with temperatures in Fahrenheit
- 9 days with temperatures in ° C More
- 9 days with temperatures in Fahrenheit More
- 5 days with temperatures in ° C More
- 5 days with temperatures in Fahrenheit More
In the version 4 is added:
1. Fixed display of weather icons
2. Added program to install the update time widget from 1 minute to 1440 minutes (1 day)
In the version 4.1 is added:
1. Fixed updating a given time
2. Fixed manual update
In the version 4.2 is added:

2. Added a configuration file to change the color of the text widget
Short press on the weather icon opens the detailed information on the selected day (automatically switches to the information today after 5 seconds.) Long press of the weather updates when connected to the Internet.
Author: B & L_Group (MoonNah)
Skins for the Weather widget:
1. ShowacoSkin (After installation restart Manila or SoftReset)
2. dunc001 Light Grey Weather Widget Icons

Some cities and locations are not picked up by the server being used.
Try setting a city close to you, in the clock settings.
Tap home clock and set a city.
Then refresh the widget.
More city detections, which would require another server and the option to display F or C would be awesome too.
But very nice job.

1* so cool xD
Waiting 4 next release xDDD

Genius again Moonah! Look forward to some nice skins for this one!

Similarly, I forgot to write that the city must be added manually to the location of the weather is not selected. The choice of temperature in Fahrenheit (F) or Celsius (C) will be added in next version, though the script now and it may, but not used yet. So do not rush me, and quietly waiting for.

Yes, I saw it in there.
Looking forward to it and nobody is rushing anyone.
In your time MoonNah.
I was hoping for a similar widget, without the use of mortscript, but so far this one seems not to be such a battery eater, due to the update method you have implemented.
So cheers for that.
I think I know what being rushed and bugged for an ETA is like and I am not here for that.

I want to make a few widgets of my tabs GPS for cookies

Wow, nice one! This is really great but one question. How do I get rid of the "frigid" and other word "icons" for weather? Just want the animations used from sense. Anyone?

Light grey weather icon set
Been waiting for someone to produce a weather widget so here is my little thank you:
Install the widget cab from the first post, then soft reset, install this cab and reset again. Any problems let me know. Enjoy

Yeah this is an awesome weather app!
I really hope they could figure out a way to integrate this with a widget, or even live wallpaper for the go launcher.
A neat note on this, if you use the video livewalllpaper, these videos work great with it and are stored by the app on your sdcard.

Excellent! Love it!
And runs totally smooth on my hero.

I already send you an email, I entered my place and the application found it, but when I applyed it, a place 30 miles away showed up.
Also I am not a big fan of the short video, everytime it will repeat itself it shows a white flash for a tenth of a second....which happens often as it is a very short video...
I am extremely satisfied with GO Launcher and GO Sms, but GO weather really needs some improvement before I will give up Palmary Weather.
Cheers,
Arnold

Realy Nice new Update !!!!
Is it possible to add an Configuration Screen for the Live Wall ?
It would be nice if i have the possibility to hide/unhide some Informations on the Wallpaper.
At the Moment it looks a little bit overloaded

Love it! Fahrenheit doesn't want to stay. Keeps switching to Celsius. Also, I love GO SMS, GO Launcher, GO Weather, and I really want you guys to release GO Browser (translate it to english asap!!)

looks very nice!
one thing would be great:
right now you are storing data at /sdcard/xweather/
it would be great if you could honor the Android documentation [1] and store your all data (*.mp4) at /sdcard/Android/data/<package_name>/files/
this way my sdcard stays clean and your app gains karma

Is there any weather app like this?

Hi,
Do you know any weather app that does not have running service?
Yes, weather forecast app that can pull data "manually" ...
No need periodic / interval update ...
Widget is not necessary either ...

Moved to Q&A BW, Fancy widget, and even the default news and weather app has this I believe

Most have these "features" and I don't really like that either. I've noticed that most of them will let you change the frequency that they pull info. Some down to 12 hours.

Fancy widget has lots of refresh options. One of them being to only refresh weather manually.

Thanks for all the suggestions. At the end, I ended up with (again) Beautiful Widget 1x1 (I already bought this when I use HTC Desire).
The reason that I want to find this kind of weather app, because I want to limit the number of running (background) services.
So, I replaced the Beautiful Widget Home widget with "simiClock" because it is simple, elegant and uses black background (save battery life).
simiClock has weather info as well ... But it does not have forecast.
That's why I was looking for weather app which can be activated (launched) when I press the simiClock weather.
But, it seems I cannot find one ... The one with update/interval can be controlled (I am not weather obsessive guy, so manual update is the best for me).
At the end, I am back with Beautiful widget weather 1x1 ... until I found a nice weather forecast app to launch from simiClock

I purchased the Weatherbug Elite. It has the options to turn off the background processing and only grab weather data when you run the app.

it's unfortunate, but i'm running into the same situation
i want to disable the back ground processing of the weather app that i like, but the app doesn't have such a feature/option
the app is supplied directly from The Weather Network, and it's very accurate, all the other apps that i've tried before are not so great

Try WeatherPro, best weather app imo

try Fancy widget... you'll love it! great app

Moxier World is by far the best I've found.
It updates either automatically or manually.
It also shows local time and weather in as many world locations as you need. It has 5 days forecast for each.

Try this out. It has an option to set update interval (or disable update entirely)

AOSP ICS 'Sense' Widgets?

Wondering if someone can help suggest some widgets that offer 'Sense-like' function for an AOSP ROM. I'm experimenting with Virtuous Quattro, but miss certain features, these three for example:
'Friend Stream' integrated Facebook/Twitter widget
'People' avatar dialer (I like the 3x4 display of icons only)
News widget
Clock w/ weather
Thanks in advance!

Try Android Pro widgets. That is about the best there is

Fancy widget for the Sense/weather experience.

Friendstream widget -> Friendcaster
HTC Clock and Weather -> GoWeather

Thanks for the suggestions, guys.
Regarding AP widgets, I tried the free version, but it seems to default to the mobile number, rather than the one that I'd prefer to use. For example, on any given contact you can select the default action (view card, send message... whatever) but you can't select which NUMBER to use if a contact has multiple phone numbers. Am I just not using it right???
Never mind... figured it out after buying the paid version.
Also, one other request - how would you synchronize contacts with Outlook on the desktop? I never really trusted Google with personal information, and now that they've changed the privacy policy, I trust them even less.
Thanks!

I'm sure they have all of your information regardless. LOL. Seriously.

I liked the widgets a lot, I think this is the first weather app to have this beautiful widgets I think this is the best part off course with the clean overall design. It would also be great if you could add more weather providers, and and maybe in the future a version without adds.

Thank you, glad you like the app! We will release a pro version without ads really soon, we are also working on a theme gallery, so you can choose what you like

Looks very promising. What I'm missing is the ability to click the widget to open the app / clock / etc. Do you plan to integrate something like that? And localisation
Where do you get the weather data from? Any chance to implement hourly weather forecast in future?

Hi! Sure, we can add the option to open the clock app etc. The weather informations are provided by dark sky. What do you mean by "localisation" ? If you mean to find your position by the gps, the feature is already available, just turn on your gps and open the app

It's simple. I suggest you to use a custom launcher, so you can resize the widget as you want, but you can use the widget with a normal launcher as well.
Go the homescreen long tap on a empty area then select "widgets" search for "Overdrop" and add a widget then the list will appear after that so you can choose the widget you want

Hey Brekane,
Great app my dude. Looking forward to that amoled black theme. I do have one request. You use dark as the data source, and I was wondering if you could implement the Hyperlocal data. That being the days used in the little box on the Arcus weather app. It says where the closest precipitation is, and how long it will be for before it rains within the hour forecast.
Example: light rain staring in 50 mins. See attachment.
