Did you try to config the zipcode or your location on the widgets yet?
Weather widget works just for US. No other countries avalible.
edit: You can check supported locations at weather.gov
This is the place where weather widget gets information.
International version

Guys,
I would appreciate help in locating these clear widgets since I can't find them. Im interested in the small and large digital clock; and small and large weather as well as the clear calendar.
I got spoiled by the "clear as a bell" theme for hero 1.5 roms and now would like the same for 2.1.
I found the clear lockbar but am still missing the rest.
Thanks.
EEK Now I wanna make a all clear theme... See what you have done. umm you can get some of these clear widgets from a app called Beautiful Widgets... Its in the android market, but its a paid app.. IMO its worth it.
EDIT: surprising enough i think you are one of the only people to ask this..

Thanks. Someone else suggested Beautiful Widgets but I think it would be a good idea to have a free solution for all the peeps.
I can't believe Im the only one asking about this since so many people loved the "clear as a bell" theme and widgets. That thread had a ton of hits.
Lockscreen is from JsChiSurf, clock is Beautiful widgets, appointments is pure calendar, powerbar is a metamorph theme. Not pictured is pure messenger which lists sms messages.
It's available, but the good stuff are paid apps in the market.
Here. Push this in place of the htc clock widget. clear weather and digital.
http://www.4shared.com/file/EkZgESRd/HtcClockWidgetclear.html
i was hoping for a port of the clear as a bell set for 2.1 as well. i was comparing the apk's of the 1.5 widgets to the 2.1 widgets, and saw a bunch of png's that were in common. however, the 2.1 set has more png's, so i am not sure of the implications if we just copy and replace the old png's into the 2.1.
I tried Beautiful Widgets and looks like the most customizable widgets I have ever seen. They are great. I just wish they had the extra small digital clock and extra small weather.

I seriously doubt that they will work but you never know. Worst case I think the widget will stop working (I hope). Anyone know for sure?
What would be the commands to push the png's and to where exactly?
I also love the clear clock and weather widgets. I am not sure what 2.1 rom you are using but if it is DC 2.7 then what I did was flash darkstars theme which has the clear main clock/weather widget. Then I flashed back to markstheme cause I like the overall color/taskbar stuff better and the clear clock/weather widget stayed for some reason, which I am happy about. I didn't feel like paying for the beautiful widget app.

You don't want to push the png's. You would need to put the png's in the proper place in the proper apk file, then you would push the apk file like this:
adb push HtcClockWidget.apk /system/app
I might be able to help you out, but I am not sure which clocks you are talking about. I see a small digital clock widget and am guessing the large one is the one with weather. Not sure what you mean by small and large weather.

I am talking about:
Clocks:
The large digital clock with weather and the smallest digital clock without weather.
Weather:
The medium and smallest weather widgets.
Sorry, I mentioned a medium digital clock, but I was mistaken. The only medium digital clock is the one in Beautiful Widgets. It takes up about half the space as the HTC one. That one is clear already though.
Here is a pic with the 4 widgets:
There are a couple different ways to make them clear, so look at the pic of the two clocks - attached here - and see if that is what you want. I wasn't sure if you wanted the white to be clear too. Side note, screencasting won't work here at work, sorry for the bad pics.

Hey, sorry I didn't reply to your post earlier, got caught up with other stuff and forgot I had the file. I pushed it and it worked.
Here is a screenshot. The only issue are two white dots on top of the big digital clock. Everything else looks great.
Now for the weather... I will try heaterz next.

Not really. Even though Gomorrah's theme looks great I was looking for just the clear widgets. Plus he didn't make his clock completely clear (the background is still there). I also did not see his weather widgets..
Not sure what he did with those.
I want th eWeather / clock widget thats posted from the 2x I installed the apk file by downloading to the computer and adding to my phone then used appinstaller to install but it is not in my widgets. I do see it under my applications. Could someone please help me
It's in the Apps and themes section under LG apps or something like that. If you're not using a custom launcher like adw then then widget takes the entire screen. I am using MIUI Digital Weather, free on the market.

Right, I had this issue back on Froyo. I don't know why, but it only worked if I wasn't using a custom launcher. If you disable your launcher, it will work. I notice on 2.3.3 that LG calender widget doesn't appear on the widget menu.
I have the Stock LG camera on 2.3.3, zero lag.

There is an almost identical one in the Market called 3D Digital Weather Clock. It will show up as a widget and works quite well.

That was the "almost identical" part of my comment. Sorry, I couldn't find an exact duplicate.
GO Weather is a similar widget and it's skinable to be flowery or several other things.

Not working when I click on the time inside notifier drawer. A window pop up with... no application blah blah.. any one have any idea? May be clock package wrongly named? The calendar feature is working ok.
Slimbean 2.8 on I9000.
Are you clicking on the clock after you pull the notification draw down? Cause mine goes to alarms. Also does your notification exapnder thingy work. What I mean is like can you expand the gmail messages in the drawer?

Hi friend, just thought I'd mozzy on in here real quick. Just so you know, it does not matter the name of the apk. As long as the extension of the file is correct (.apk) it should work. The reason why is when Android looks at the apk's, it does not care the name of the file, it only cares what the package name says in the Androidmanifest.xml that is INSIDE of the apk.
wildstang83, Thanks for the info. Everything work fine except for this clock thing. I have wipe/flash and even format SD card then re-flash the slimbean 2.8 and it still not working. I imagine this problem is isolate otherwise I would see it pop up in slimbean thread already. I cant post there yet because of the post count limit.
Frustration!
I have the sunbeam 2.8 everything works fine for me

I took the 4.2.2 alarm clock from arman68 modular rom and modified it to better fit 4.1 Style.
What I did:
- red bold "all caps" headlines changed to white non bold not "all caps"
- everything else that was red is now holo blue
I also tried to get rid of the ugly bold/slim design of the clock fonts. But that isn't so easy as it seems to be and therefore I failed. Maybe in a future update...
Tools used for my modding activities:
- Virtuous Ten Studio
- ImageMagick (command line image manipulation)
- win-bash (UNIX Bash Shell for Windows)
- Greenfish Icon Editor Pro
- WinMerge
- Notepad++
- my brain
Changelog:.
v1.1: Background is now black. City names in city selection list are now smaller. not condensed and not "all caps". Managed to make the hour digits a lot thinner on desk clock and alarm screens. Unfortunately they are still a little bolder than the minutes. Seems to be impossible to obtain the same font for hours an minutes by xml editing.
v1.1.1: Added "UTC" timezone. "Ho-Chi-Minh-Stadt" had a double entry in German. Corrected that, one entry is now "Saigon".
v1.2: Reverted the grey gradient on the actionbars on main clock screen to what it originally was - a pure transparency gradient. Actionbars on settings, cities list and alarmclock are now standard holo style with app icon (removed the blue divider line on alarmclock screen, because it doesn't look nice there). Changed the locations icon on the world clock screen to the globe icon from deskclock 4.4

Good job.
I actually like the red and bold/caps heading; this is the way google designed it. But I understand everyone has different choices, and your changes do fit well in the holo design.
To tell you the truth: I have little love for the holo blue. Do you know that the colour blue causes the body to release hormones that keep us awake? Not so good for when using the phone in the evening or at night.
If it was up to me, I would have themed the whole JB interface with the holo orange. For reference, here are the standard holo colours:
yes! u right

No, the digital clock widget has been completely removed by arman68. I've read that backporting the digital widget would mean a rewrite of larger parts of its code because it uses some 4.2 specific system calls with no substitute on 4.1
Here is a test version for Brazilian JB ROM.
Please report if it's working.
Don't forget to backup before trying.
Thanks man.
It's really useful for me.

It worked perfectly!
I’m running a XT890 with locked bootloader and rooted.
My System version is 982.50.29.XT890.Brasil.en.BR
Android Stock 4.1.2
Language: Brazilian Portuguese
DeskClock version 1.2
It’s running properly, the texts are just fine.
There’s only one issue, when you start the stopwatch and alternate to other application, the status bar shows the Stopwatch notification (that it is running in background) but the time is above the Stopwatch icon.
This don’t happen to the countdown.
I’ve attached two screenshots to show exactly how it is.
Anyway, I loved this mod, I couldn’t believe when I realized that RAZR I didn’t have a countdown and a stopwatch, I came from a Defy and it has at least the countdown.
Thanks a lot hypophysis!!!
How do I do it?

Hey man! I have exactly the same version as yours, and my bootloader is locked and the phone rooted. I'd like to know step by step how to install this mod. I've been craving for a clock app with stopwatch and timer...I don't understand why JB 4.1 doesn't have it. I use a third-party app to do the job, but a native one is MUCH better.
I would really appreciate if you could help me with that!
Thanks in advance

Sure!
There’s no secret to make it work!
I've used Root Explorer to do the job, so you gonna need it.
1) Download the DeskClock version 1.2, I've tried the 1.1.1 Brazilian version and it didn't work;
2) Make a backup of your Deskclock and the ODEX file;
3) Delete the files Deskclock.apk and the ODEX file;
4) Copy the new Deskclock to the System APP folder (root/system/app);
5) Set permissions to 644, in case of doubt you can check the permissions in any other file inside this folder, all Apps should be set with this permission.
6) Reboot your phone, I used the way shutdown and turn on, but you can do it with Terminal emulator without any problems too
7) Enjoy your new Clock with Stopwatch and countdown.
I’m using it since last week, no problem was found in the Alarm, Countdown and Stopwatch, the only issue is that I’ve mentioned before.
I hope to help you.
If you need anything else just ask me, I’ll be glad to help.

What kind of problem happen?
Did you get a FC?
I did everything that I wrote and for me it worked.
The permissions are really important, if you forget or put something else it will not work.
Remeber that the ODEX have to be deleted, otherwise it will not work.
Try again and make sure to download the version 1.2.

No, I didn't get FC. The app disappeared from the drawer, so I can't access the settings for the alarms and so on. I did exactly as you told me, including the permissions. I copied both the APK and the ODEX original files to a safe place, but when I rebooted the phone and couldn't access the clock no more, I copied the original files back to system/app and rebooted again. This didn't work as well...it seems I lost the original app funcionality forever...To remedy this I installed Alarm Klock from google play, a nice, simple and useful alarm app.. This doesn't really solve the problem though, because this app doesn't have stopwatch and timer.
This version I tried to install is the 1.2 ...maybe I should try the 1.1.1 BR...
Installed 1.2 over br stock ROM, works fine!
