Hello All,
Can someone please point me in the direction of a Picture Widget similar to the one in JellyBean v4.1
I really like how you can have the widget flip through images that are assigned in a gallery folder.
Now that I am using a 3rd party launcher I cannot access that particular widget goodness.
T.I.A.
Which one? Any screenshot?
Hello webharsh,
I dont have a screenshot at the moment.
I wasn't anything fancy just a built(stock) widget that was nearly the size of a homescreen, displaying only one image at a time. The coolness was being able to flip through the images.
T.I.A.
I have JB on my phone bu there is no fullscreen gallery widget.
Are you looking for Sense Gallery widget instead?
Auhhh that could be it.
Is it as I described?
T.I.A.
I don't know of any other widget which can give you almost full screen photo widget.
But give a try to android stock gallery widget from any AOSP ROM (or CM10/AOKP). They are pretty .
Thanks webharsh!

Try using CM based ROM (bruce JB or AOKP) if you haven't used yet. You will be thoroughly amazed .
Coo!
Thank you!
I think you are talking about "Photo Album" widget..
See the screenshot.
If this is the widget you are talking about, then sorry to say you can't have it on a third party launcher. It's a Sense based widget and can only be use with HTC Sense.

Thank you anasmunir!
That is the exact widget I was looking for.
Sadness to be so close an yet so far.

Thats the HTC widget. That will only work on a Sense ROM and if you are using the Sense Launcher (no ADW or Launcher Pro ect). If you are running one it should be included. The closest thing would be Beautiful Widgets that you can get in the market. There is(or was) another one in the market that is an exact clone but Im sure it wont be long before HTC shuts them down if they havent already.
o i c and i do have ADW launcher. thanks for your respond and i will look for that beautiful widget.
I think the closest replacement to the Htc Clock/Weather Widget is called Weather & Toggle Widget in the Market - I really like it a lot.
Or Fancy Widget which looks just like it, but you will need to surf the internet to dig it out. Since it was taken off the market place, or at least I dont see it no the market anymore.
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.
Hey guys, i really love the AOSP ROMs, but i miss the sense widgets a lot. Anyone know any good replacements for them, especially the following widgets?
=>People Widget
=>Friend Stream
=>The Giant Weather Clock (there's a ton, i need to know which you think is the best)
=>Messages
PS - I do not want to install a launcher like ADW, GoLauncher or LauncherPRO, so keep those suggestions out. Thanks.
in my opinion the best replacement for the weather clock widget ist fancy widget
ty it out
Thanks, will try it. I really need a widget to replace the PEOPLE widget, i really miss that...

sry cant help you there because i never used that widget
Pure Messenger Widget replaces Friend Stream for me. It can also display Emails, Messages and Call History. Pure Calendar Widget replaces the huge Sense Calendar widget.

Android pro widgets does the trick for me when I go non-sense. Although the "people" equivalent is not linked to facebook, sms and etc.

Yeah, i am using that now. The widgets are not nearly as polished as those in sense,but they'll do.
I like the go launcher widgets most, they are near by to the sense ones, but unfortunately not useable without go launcher(except go weather widget, a nice replacement for the sense clock/wheater widget).
i prefer the go weather app for weather. it works without the need for go launcher. as for people... im still searching... btw, chk out agile lock if u want the lockscreen. it works well, no lag and like in sense, you can put custom lockscreen apps...
I use gosms pro for messages, really good imo
I use Photo Contacts Widget

Good Replacements for HTC Sense Widgets
Try Nova Launcher as it has some edge over other launchers...

The HD Widgets (recently in that 10p sale) is very nice. I've used it in post #282 of the screen shots thread. Not as many skins as Beautiful Widgets, but still a nice looking clock.
Another clock I like which doesn't get much of a mention is WP Clock. It's more of a Live Wallpaper than a clock, but it lefts you have a nice, clutter free main homescreen.

Hello everybody.
I`m lookin everyday for widget app which one could show me gallery photos on screen like "pictures and photos" widget from xperia s like this on photo from link:
http://androidcommunity.com/sony-xperia-s-promo-video-leaks-teasing-new-ui-changes-20120220/
In market I have not found this application, i tested many of them.
My question is about app which can show me pictures from gallery on home screen and will be scrollable these pictures? Is it possible on this rom?
Rom have not widget like this, only shortcut about gallery.
Pls help.
Try this home app by x10forevers:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26096945
You'll get Xperia home app & photowidget.
Thanks for this but i don`t want to change launcher but only app with photowidget working with this miui launcher. Is this possible?
Is there a decent replacement for the Sense photo gallery widget?
I'd like to get the flexibility and customisation of a different launcher, but I cannot find any gallery widget as good as the Sense gallery. Actually, I cannot find ANY photo gallery widget. I would have thought this would be a no-brainer; a way of accessing all your pictures from the home screen?
If only Quickpic did a widget.
I use Slideshow (Homescreen widget). It's the only one i found that works somewhat close to the Sense widget.
QuickPic.

Quickpic, I had it on my G2, but now find the stock hTc gallery to suit my needs just fine.

Easily the best alternative! :good:

As great as Quick Pic is, the original OP said he was looking for an alternative that has a good widget. He even says in the OP he wishes Quick Pic had a widget so he already knows about that app.
